"Police station? This is Ji Dahai. I'm looking for your Chief Wang."
Did you call the police?
Tiger's face changed drastically: "Mom, he really called the police! What are we going to do?"
Wang Dahua's expression also turned unnatural, but she still stubbornly said, "Let him call the police, so what? We didn't steal or rob, even if the police come, we're not afraid of them."
At this moment, Ji Dahai spoke to the elder brother again.
"Hello, Director Wang, it's me, Ji Dahai. I've run into a bit of trouble..."
"You don't need to come in person. Just send a few people to arrest them."
"Okay, thank you, Director Wang. Come to my restaurant for dinner tomorrow."
After Ji Dahai finished making the phone call, the villagers who were watching went wild.
"They actually called the police! Tiger and the others are in for it!"
"That's for sure. Didn't you hear them say that if the police station comes to arrest them, they'll definitely be in jail?"
"You guys think this big boss is so powerful that he can get the police station to arrest someone with just one phone call?"
"What do you know? Officials and businessmen have been colluding since ancient times. That big boss is so powerful, his car is worth tens of thousands. Isn't it normal for him to know the police station chief?"
Hearing the whispers, Wang Dahua turned pale with fright.
Since ancient times, the common people have never fought with the officials. How could ordinary people not be afraid of being entangled in lawsuits?
She was no longer as fierce as she had been before.
He ran up to Ji Dahai, covered in cold sweat, and his attitude did a complete 360-degree turn.
With a fawning expression, he said, "Boss Ji, please, please don't do this... It's just a small matter, why did it involve the police station? We'll refund the money for the mushrooms, okay?"
"Oh, now you're scared? Too late!" Ji Dahai's expression was exceptionally cold: "The police are on their way. You'd better wait to be locked up in jail."
"No, no!! I'll return the money to you right away!" Wang Dahua was truly terrified.
If they were to squat behind a fence, the elderly couple wouldn't mind.
But what about his son? Won't that cause a delay?
Will he still be able to find a wife in the future?
She quickly took out 1200 yuan from her pocket, counted it carefully, and handed it over.
Ji Dahai took it, counted the items, and then frowned.
"This isn't enough?"
"1200, that's all here, it's definitely enough! Count it again!"
“1200 is definitely not enough. As a big boss, I personally came to deliver the goods to you. Don’t you expect me to cover the shipping costs? Besides, our store has lost countless customers because of your mistake. You have to compensate us for that, right?”
"Then I'll give you another hundred." Wang Dahua reluctantly pulled out another bill from her pocket and handed it over.
"Ha, are you trying to fob off a beggar?" Ji Dahai was still dissatisfied.
"So, how many do you want?"
"Okay, I don't need too much from you. Including travel expenses and lost wages, just give me two thousand in total."
"Two thousand?!" Wang Dahua exclaimed, "Isn't this extortion?"
"You don't want to? Then just wait for the police to come and arrest you!"
“You…!!!” Wang Dahua was both angry and furious.
But Tiger was terrified and quickly pleaded with his mother, "Mom, just go home and get another eight hundred. You can't really watch your son go to jail!"
"this……"
Wang Dahua was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
He could only angrily go home to get the money.
Of course she knew that Ji Dahai was trying to extort the extra eight hundred yuan from her.
But what can you do even if you know?
What could she possibly do?
At this moment, no matter how bitter or aggrieved she felt, she could only grit her teeth and swallow it down. She was like a mute eating bitter melon, unable to express her suffering.
A few minutes later, Wang Dahua took another 800 yuan from home and handed it to Ji Dahai.
Ji Dahai picked up his mobile phone, dialed a number, and said, "No need to come."
After finishing everything, he waved his hand and had someone unload all twenty baskets of mushrooms.
With the excitement fading, the crowd gradually dispersed.
...
Li Weidong also left with the crowd.
Although I haven't had enough yet, the important thing now is to go to Pan Er's butcher stall, buy some pork, and cook something delicious for Zhou Xiaoye.
After walking for two minutes, we arrived at Pan Er's meat stall at the south end of the village.
Li Weidong lowered his head and selected suitable pork belly.
Just then, a Santana suddenly stopped in front of him.
The car window rolled down, and what appeared in Li Weidong's view was none other than Ji Dahai, who had given Wang Dahua a severe beating.
"Hey, Brother Ji, I was just thinking of calling you when I got home. Thanks for today."
"Hey, it's nothing. How was it? Did you do a great job today, bro?"
"Beautiful, absolutely beautiful! It really helped me vent my anger. By the way, Brother Ji, did you really call the police just now?"
"No, she's just a shrew. Why would I need to use Director Wang's connections? I just dialed our restaurant's number."
"I knew it!"
"Oh, right, you can take this."
Ji Dahai handed an envelope to Li Weidong.
Li Weidong frowned after opening it.
"Brother Ji, what do you mean?"
The envelope contained nothing but two thousand yuan.
"It's nothing. I came here mainly to help Brother Weidong vent his anger. I'm not after money. You can keep it."
"Brother Ji, I'm already so touched that you're helping me. What kind of person would I be if I took your money too?"
"This isn't my money, so you can keep it." Ji Dahai waved his hand firmly.
