Chapter 273 Making Trouble
"It's so cold!" As soon as Yun Xiang left the studio, he felt the cold wind blowing. He hurriedly pulled his clothes together, but felt it was not warm enough, so he put on another coat.
It’s just the beginning of autumn, and the temperature has dropped a lot, as if we have entered early winter, three months early. I don’t know if it will warm up again.
Every time the weather changes, everyone thinks that a thousand-year disaster has occurred, but it returns to normal in just two days. It's just a joke.
Everyone's heart was always hanging in the balance, neither up nor down, feeling very uncomfortable, but they couldn't do nothing, so they could only work hard to complete the mission.
On the way to the planting base, Yun happened to pass by the trading market. Li Zixi told him that Huang Lewei and others were on duty there. Yun wanted to go out, but turned back and decided to go to the trading market.
As soon as he entered, he walked past a few stalls and saw a crowd of people in front of him. At first, Yun thought he was going to find some good stuff, but he didn't expect that they were just there to cause trouble.
I squeezed into the crowd unsurely, and saw a woman who was dirty and had disheveled hair, sitting on the ground and making a scene.
His body was tied with a vine, and only his wrists could move, but he was still holding on to a small basket of seafood and refused to let go.
The woman cursed the stall owner like crazy, saying he didn't keep his word and bullied ordinary people. She also cursed the law enforcement team members for not handling the matter impartially and allowing the awakened to bully ordinary people.
In short, anyone who dares to touch her seafood is bullying her, an ordinary person.
The two law enforcement officers tried to reason with her, but the woman's goal was to get the basket of shrimps, so how could she listen to them?
Sure enough, there was another round of shouting. The two men looked at each other and decided to fight. But before their hands even touched the basket, the woman started yelling at them for taking advantage and threatened to sue them.
The two were so frightened that they quickly let go. Having just graduated, they had never seen such a scene before and were immediately at a loss as to what to do.
There’s no other way. I’ll have to send a message to the team leader right away.
No one around stepped forward, just stood there watching the joke. The stall owner and his men simply sat aside, waiting for the young law enforcement officer to give them instructions.
Even Wu Qian is willing to give up his position. Let's see who he is. Don't let him down.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Huang Lewei led the team and hurried over.
Just as he was about to step forward to ask, he suddenly glanced at Yun Xiang on the side. His eyes immediately widened and he subconsciously touched his forehead.
He wanted to say hello, but Jianyun wanted to shake his head at him, and suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
He stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"
The two finally waited for Huang Lewei and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Someone quickly spoke up, "This woman was hired by the stall owner to sort seafood. The agreed salary was 10,000 interstellar coins a day, or five kilograms of low-quality nutritious ingredients."
Wow? Huang Lewei raised an eyebrow. "So high? The stall owner is quite generous."
He had been patrolling the trading market during this period and was already familiar with the work of ordinary people. He was really surprised, but he didn't expect that the people around him suddenly burst into laughter.
This made Huang Lewei look puzzled, but he was cheerful and not fussy about details, so not only did he not delve into it, he also laughed with everyone else.
Instead, he won the favor of people around him.
Huang Lewei then asked, "And then?"
"This woman wants to exchange her wages for high-quality nutritious shrimp, but—"
"Can this be exchanged?" Huang Lewei felt that the woman was being unreasonable. He looked at the basket in her hand, which was about five pounds, and didn't understand anything else, so he said, "You can't even exchange half a pound."
The woman probably saw that Huang Lewei was not someone to be trifled with, so she kept silent.
"That's right, the boss was kind enough to give her half a pound, but this woman asked for five pounds of high-quality shrimps, saying that it was the result of her hard work and she deserved it. It's so... so..." shameless!
The man finally realized his identity at the last moment and refrained from cursing directly, "You're still saying that we're not fair and just, and that we're helping the Awakened bully ordinary people."
The more he spoke, the more aggrieved he felt. Huang Lewei slapped him hard and cursed him inwardly, calling him a loser.
The woman was unhappy when she heard this. "What's wrong with you? I asked you to come here to protect my interests, not to side with them. I didn't expect you to be so useless!"
Hey, what the hell! "Auntie, we're here to deal with trouble, not to support anyone, so don't slander them."
"Hmph, you say you are helping ordinary people, but you are actually supporting the awakened ones." The woman said with disdain.
Damn, where is he--the man was about to quibble again, but Huang Lewei stopped him.
Without saying a word, he cleverly snatched the shrimp from his wife's hand and put it on the stall.
The woman was stunned at first, and when she saw that her hands were suddenly empty, she reacted immediately and rushed towards Huang Lewei madly. Huang Lewei directly used a talisman to tie her up tightly.
The woman was indignant and screamed, "The law enforcement team is bullying ordinary people! The law enforcement team and the awakened are in cahoots, bullying—wuwu…"
Huang Lewei became impatient and scratched his ears exaggeratedly. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and stuffed it directly into the woman's mouth.
The woman was so angry that she twisted her body left and right, unable to speak, and kept humming.
"Take him away, take him away!" Huang Lewei waved to his subordinates.
His subordinates were stunned by his quick operation.
Huang Lewei was so angry that he scolded his subordinates, "This is an obvious matter, how can we make a decision? Robbers are rampant and causing trouble in public, just arrest them and lock them up.
You can't even handle such a simple case? And you called me over here in such a hurry! Call me over again when someone dies in the future."
Was she a robber? Did he want her dead? The woman stared at Huang Lewei in disbelief, her eyes wide open.
"What are you looking at? Do you think you're right? How can high-quality shrimp be the same as ordinary ingredients? Five pounds for five pounds, do you think others are fools?
I think you're pretty clever, using the charter to protect the rights of ordinary people to commit robbery. Pretty good! I'm just wondering why you're suddenly not afraid of the Awakened? Is there someone behind you?
Huang Lewei suddenly approached her and shouted, "Tell me, who is behind you?"
Huh! The woman was startled and her eyes avoided, not daring to look Huang Lewei in the face. She kept backing away and almost fell down, and was dragged up by someone.
Huang Lewei snorted coldly, not intending to investigate further. This kind of thing happened to them almost every day. If they really investigated, it would implicate a whole group of people, making it difficult to punish them. It was better to just point out the problem and leave it at that.
Of course, this will soon be over.
Huang Lewei glanced at the woman with ill intent, then stood up and said loudly, "The Manufacturing Society has released a new chip, which will soon be popular on Falling Star.
Once installed on the optical computer, your every action will be recorded. Once you have a bad record, the amount of your next transaction will be automatically doubled. If you don't repent and continue to commit the same offense, your amount will be doubled again.
If you think you have enough money, you can keep doubling it. Similarly, if the seller behaves badly, the transaction amount will automatically double, but the price will be reduced.
Of course, we'll give you a chance. Once you pay the difference and the fine, the negative record will automatically disappear and everything will return to normal." This statement was clearly not addressed to the woman alone.
Huang Lewei promoted the new product for free. Seeing that everyone was in deep thought, they obviously listened to what he said and nodded with satisfaction.
Then he walked towards the stall owner and said, "If you are wronged in the future, keep looking for me!"
