Chapter 345 Wait and See
Chen Feng suppressed his nausea and smiled disapprovingly, shaking his head.
"Gentlemen, please don't lose your temper. I can solemnly assure you that with the reputation of our Ruyi Tower, there is absolutely no chance of any dirt in the food. That was definitely Sichuan peppercorns."
The waiter recovered from his shock and nodded repeatedly in agreement, "Yes, yes, that was Sichuan peppercorns, there's no doubt about it."
At first, Chen Qingqing was worried that her elder brother would give in and swallow his anger.
She never dreamed that Chen Feng would eat a fly as if it were a peppercorn, but she did admire his ability to respond.
She handled things with such courage and determination. She made the right investment in this restaurant.
Now that the evidence has been destroyed, no one can do anything to Ruyi Tower as long as they refuse to admit it.
The bald man never thought that things would turn out like this. He thought that if he made a big fuss, he would start extorting money and smashing the store.
But now that I have no excuse, how can I proceed?
They all promised Li the butcher that they would get the job done, so are they just going to let it go like this?
No, if I fail this time, it will be even harder to do it in the future.
Thinking of this, he put on a scoundrel face.
"Don't think you can get away with eating a fly, kid. Let me tell you, if you don't give us an explanation today, we won't leave."
Seeing this, the diners around started to talk about it.
"There can't be flies in the food. They must be dazzled."
"That's right. If it was a fly, how could the shop owner eat it and eat it so deliciously?"
"These people are just making a fuss out of nothing. They call a peppercorn a fly. Isn't this slandering the reputation of Ruyi Tower?"
"That's right, I understand he's just showing off, I really don't know whose eyesight is bad!"
"In my opinion, they are just drunk and want to cause trouble."
"Yes, that's right. They are just causing trouble without any reason. If they report it to the police, they will be beaten with sticks and put in jail."
......
After hearing what people said, the scoundrels panicked.
The bald man was unwilling to give up and pretended to be calm.
"This is none of your business, just stay aside."
As he said this, he glanced at Chen Feng.
"Brother, what do you think we should do about this today?"
Seeing that the other party was not giving in, Chen Feng smiled faintly, "Sir, what do you want to do?"
"What should I do? I feel sick right now. Pay the money quickly, or we brothers will destroy your Ruyi Building."
"In that case, we have no choice but to report it to the authorities and let them investigate the truth. If they really want to convict you of causing trouble without cause, they will punish you with tattooing and three years of hard labor."
When they heard they were going to report the case to the police, they panicked instantly. They didn't want to be sued and go to jail.
"No, no, no, there's no need to report to the police, it's not a big deal!" The sharp-nosed monkey thief's eyes rolled. He knew that if he continued to make trouble without any evidence, he would be courting death. The only thing he could do now was to retreat quickly.
He looked at the bald man and winked, "Brother Bald, we are doomed today, let's forget about it!"
The bald man wasn't stupid, but he felt very aggrieved. He glared at Chen Feng fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "You're a tough guy today. Let's see what happens!"
As the saying goes, it’s better to lose the battle than the battle. Although he is in a mess right now, he can’t be soft-hearted. “Brothers, let’s go!”
"Wait a minute!" Chen Feng stepped forward and blocked their way, saying with a smile, "Guests, please settle your bills before leaving!"
"What did you say? You still want money for dinner?"
The bald guy was so angry that his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he started cursing.
"Don't be so shameless, I found a fly in my food and didn't ask you for money, but you're still taking advantage of me. Believe it or not, I'll smash your black shop."
"That's right, don't be ungrateful. If you offend us, you will suffer the consequences." Scarface gritted his teeth and warned sternly.
The sharp-nosed monkey also had a dark face and squinted at Chen Feng, "Kid, if you can't do something, don't be so rude as to refuse a toast. Get out of here if you know what's good for you. My patience is limited."
Chen Feng ignored them and said coldly, "Flies! Who can prove there are flies in my food? They are clearly peppercorns. We are open for business. It is only natural to pay for your meal. If you don't want to pay, do you think you can dine for free?"
As he spoke, he instructed the waiter beside him, "Go and calculate the cost of the wine and food on this table."
"Boss, we've already calculated it. The wine, food and the broken porcelain bowl will cost a total of five taels of silver." The waiter said truthfully.
Chen Feng nodded. "My three guests, if you don't pay, we will go to the government office and let the master judge the matter. Is there such a thing as free food and free drinks in this world?"
Upon hearing this, the bald man became furious, his eyes almost popping out of his head. "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"
Chen Feng knows that villains fear power but not virtue. Villains are like dogs, they all rely on the power of others, bully the weak and fear the strong.
If he gave in and blindly indulged these scoundrels, they would become unscrupulous and continue to make unbridled advances.
Chen Feng showed no fear as he stared at the bald man. "Sir, I'm sure you know better than anyone what's right and wrong. Whether you did it intentionally or were instructed to do so, I don't want to delve into it. But if you persist, don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll have to report you to the authorities and have them investigate the truth."
The bald man's face turned red and blue when he heard this. When had he ever been so humiliated?
I really want to overturn the table and throw the chairs to destroy Ruyi Tower.
But he knew he was in the wrong. If he really reported the matter to the police, he would be beaten with a stick at best, and even worse, he would be sent to jail.
Forget it, a real man can bend and stretch.
But he was reluctant to give up the silver. After all, Li the butcher had only given them five taels of silver as a reward. He thought he could take the opportunity to extort one hundred or eighty taels of silver, but the opposite happened.
This is not just a case of losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken. You don't get to eat the meat but end up getting into trouble. It's all in vain!
Scarface saw him standing there in a daze for a long time without saying a word, and he became a little anxious. He whispered, "Baldy, this guy is not easy to deal with. A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him. Let's just give them the money."
"Yeah, Brother Baldy, it's better to have less trouble than more. If we really report it to the police, we won't be in the right." The sharp-nosed monkey was also panicked and scared to death.
The bald man gritted his teeth, took out the five taels of silver given to him by Li the butcher from his pocket, and threw it on the table with a "bang".
In order not to lose face, he pointed at Chen Feng and said word by word,
"Remember this, kid. Sooner or later, I'm going to shut you down. Brothers, let's go!"
After saying that, he lowered his head and walked out of the restaurant with Scarface and Sharp-nosed Monkey.
Wu Shiren was so angry that he wanted to curse in the street when he saw that things had gone wrong.
These things that can't help but cause trouble, the good plan was just ruined by others, it's really useless.
Now I can only put my hopes on Duoduo and think of turning around and leaving in disgrace.
Seeing that it was a false alarm, the diners smiled and walked into Ruyi Tower...
