Upon hearing this, Bald Yong laughed loudly, "The underworld? Haha, little sister, you're right, I am a gangster. Since you're not bad looking, I advise you to get lost, or next time, I'll have my brothers beat you up, you believe me?"
Click! Click!
While Bald Yong was speaking, someone nearby took photos and videos.
"Who the hell? Who dares to take pictures like this? You think I won't kill you?"
Baldy Yong's expression changed, and he immediately parted the crowd, found Meng Yu who was holding a camera, and said sternly, "Little girl, hand over the camera right now, what are you taking pictures of?"
"Excuse me, I'm a reporter from the TV station, and I have the right to take photos," Meng Yu said with a smile.
"Damn it, I think you want to die!"
Bald Yong was furious and was about to make a move.
"Who wants to die?"
Just then, An Xin and Li Xiang walked over from behind the crowd.
An Xin, her face dark, stared at Bald Yong and demanded, "He Yong, who are you threatening in broad daylight? Hmm? Come on, try moving me!"
An Xin and Li Xiang, dressed in police uniforms, along with the police car parked nearby, were the biggest deterrent to this group of thugs.
Bald Yong immediately chickened out and awkwardly laughed, "Officer An, I was just joking, how could I dare?"
"Who called the police?" Li Xiang asked, scanning his surroundings.
"I!"
Tang Ping stepped out from behind the crowd and raised his hand, saying, "Officer An, Officer Li, someone came to cause trouble and vandalized my shop, so I called the police. Didn't you say last time that if you have any problems, call the police? So I called the police."
Upon seeing Tang Ping, Bald Yong's eyes immediately turned red, and he threatened viciously, "Damn it, you little brat, you're trying to play dirty tricks on me, aren't you? Dare to call the police..."
Snap!
Li Xiang slapped him on the head and yelled, "What are you being so arrogant about? Arrest them all and take them away!"
Bald Yong protested, "Officer Li, why should we? We were just joking around, we didn't break the law."
An Xin coughed and asked, "Tang Ping, did your shop suffer any major losses?"
Tang Ping understood immediately and said, "Yes, a lot of the Italian imported materials I used for the renovation were smashed, and some of my computer equipment, worth tens of thousands of yuan, were also destroyed. The worst thing is that they even beat up the workers. Last time they injured seven or eight of them and ran away. I had to pay for their medical expenses."
"Okay, deliberately provoking trouble, plus robbery and assault, that's enough for a few years in prison."
An Xin nodded and immediately put handcuffs on Bald Yong.
Seeing this, Bald Yong's henchmen took the opportunity to slip away, but some of the leaders were arrested.
"good!"
"Well done, officers! You made the arrest!"
"This gang of scourges led by Bald Yong should have been arrested long ago."
The crowd of onlookers discussed it animatedly, cheering loudly.
Most of these people were neighbors on Lovers' Street, small business owners, who were all more or less subjected to extortion and oppression by Bald Yong and his gang of thugs.
The arrest of Bald Yong at this moment is exactly what the people want.
In one instance, an elderly man in the crowd knelt down and kowtowed, tears streaming down his face, saying, "Thank you, officers! You've truly rid the people of a scourge! Last month, my son was beaten and hospitalized by this group of people just because they were a little slow in serving the food."
The public was outraged, and many people began to stand up and point out Bald Yong's evil deeds.

Meng Yu also gave the old man kneeling on the ground a close-up shot at the right time.
Bald Yong was taken into the police car. Just before getting in, An Xin couldn't help but ask Meng Yu, "Why did you get involved too?"
"I am a journalist. It is my responsibility and duty to speak out for the people, uphold justice, and report on real social phenomena," Meng Yu said solemnly.
An Xin frowned and said, "This is Jinghai. You should stay home during your vacation and not run around. Also, don't publish these reports carelessly; they will damage Jinghai's image."
Meng Yu was somewhat displeased and said, "I'm not a child, why should you interfere? As for reporting the truth, that's my right, please don't interfere with my profession!"
An Xin wanted to say something more, but Li Xiang was urging her, so she gave a helpless bitter smile, turned around and went to drive.
The next day, Jinghai News reported on the lawless and evil deeds of Bald Yong and his gang of thugs. The Jinghai Branch of the Public Security Bureau responded to the scene and punished the gang. An Xin and Li Xiang were both commended.
According to the charges against him, Bald Yong should be sentenced to at least several years in prison this time, not just detention, because the negative social impact is too great.
Everyone's happy!
With Bald Yongyi arrested, Tang Ping can finally get to work.
The two audio-visual stores were able to operate normally again, and the daily income flowed into Tang Ping's account like snowflakes.
Two weeks later, the internet cafe was finally renovated.
Jifeng Esports Internet Cafe is now officially open for business!
Swift Esports: Fastest internet browsing ever!
If you're a true brother, come and fight me! If we don't live wildly in our youth, are we going to wait until we're old to lament the epic history of our lives together?
Tang Ping even wrote an advertising slogan and had Li Qiang send some of his men to distribute the advertising leaflets everywhere.
On opening day, become a member and receive double the rewards for any amount recharged. Recharge over 30 yuan and receive a free milk tea.
Currently, internet cafes don't have the concept of membership systems or offer free internet access, because they simply don't lack customers.
But Tang Ping's event was very attractive and quickly drew in a large number of customers.
The store was packed on opening day, and quite a few customers recharged their accounts, but most of them only recharged a few dozen yuan in order to get free milk tea.
However, this is still pretty good.
Many people didn't have a machine and could only queue on the first floor. While waiting, some couples would naturally order some snacks and milk tea.
Business was better than Tang Ping had expected. The number of people he had hired was far from enough to keep up with the demand, so Tang Ping had to ask his mother and a few neighborhood women to come and help.
Customers come and go, tables need to be cleared, and milk tea is sold out.
I was busy until late at night before things gradually calmed down. There were only a few people who came to stay all night, but about half of the machines were occupied.
Tang Ping asked Song Lili to do a quick count of the sales revenue.
"Cousin, there are two hundred people who recharged 30 yuan, and also 50 and 100 yuan. The one who recharged the most was a boss who recharged 1,000 yuan. The rest were scattered, the most being 10 yuan. The total turnover is... oh my god, it's actually 15,000 yuan!" Song Lili's mouth dropped open in surprise as she calculated the last part.
Sure enough, 2000 was the year internet cafes took off. Not to mention, Tang Ping's Gale Esports Internet Cafe had a great environment and fast internet speeds.
Even the most run-down, illegal internet cafes are packed with people queuing up for a computer.
Fifteen thousand is still a lot of money, even though people's spending power is low right now. It's still much more profitable than a record store.
This doesn't even include the money earned from selling milk tea and snacks, such as hot dogs and popcorn, which are basically extremely profitable.
Tang Ping laughed and said, "Don't get excited, there will only be more and more in the future. By the way, hire a few more people tomorrow, they need to be reliable and honest. When they come, teach them how to make milk tea and hot dogs, and how to clean up and sweep the floor."
