Ji Dahai's so-called "small thank-you gift" stunned everyone.
You have to understand that these days, most families can't even afford a telephone, let alone a mobile phone.
Li Weidong had considered buying one before, but gave up after asking about the price.
After all, this mobile phone, including the network access fee and prepaid expenses, costs a staggering 28,000 yuan!
An ordinary family couldn't save that much money even if they worked all year round!
Li Weidong said righteously, "Boss Ji, you should take this mobile phone back. I can't accept it from you."
If it were just some ordinary item worth a thousand or eight hundred, I might accept it, but how could I possibly accept something worth over twenty thousand!
Ji Dahai insisted, "This isn't free. Putting everything else aside, you've saved me a lot of money on the pork alone, not to mention the alcohol later on. So you have to accept this mobile phone."
Zhang Bin and Shen Xiaoyan exchanged a glance, both seeing amazement in each other's eyes.
Giving away items worth 20,000 to 30,000 yuan so readily—Ji Dahai is truly generous; no wonder his business is so successful.
From another perspective, the fact that Li Weidong, a young man in his early twenties from the village, could receive such a generous gift from a big boss like Ji Dahai further confirms his capabilities.
They made the right choice in choosing a boss!
Li Weidong didn't want to accept the mobile phone, but seeing Ji Dahai's insistence, he simply asked, "Boss Ji, you've come all this way today to give such an expensive gift, it's not just to express your gratitude, is it?"
"You were absolutely right!"
Ji Dahai laughed: "I actually have something I'd like to talk to you about this time, but..."
He glanced around and lowered his voice, "I wonder if it would be convenient for Brother Weidong to have a private chat?"
Li Weidong shook his head: "Not now, I'm in a hurry to go back and get engaged! I'll come to your shop to find you after I'm done with my work."
"Alright, alright, you go ahead and get busy, your business is important!"
Ji Dahai nodded hurriedly and pushed the mobile phone over again: "But you have to accept this mobile phone. Consider it a thank-you gift and a congratulatory gift combined. That way, it won't be too expensive, right?"
After saying that, he added, "If you don't accept it, I won't feel at ease, and I'll feel embarrassed to do business with you again in the future."
"So that people won't always say I'm taking advantage of others!"
Everyone laughed.
Li Weidong had no choice but to nod and say, "Alright, then I'll accept it. Thank you for your generous gift, Boss Ji!"
Ji Dahai breathed a sigh of relief and beamed with joy: "No problem, no problem, I have something else to tell you..."
Before he could finish speaking, a group of people strode aggressively toward them.
Shen Xiaoyan looked up and her face darkened: "Wei Dong, the troublemakers are here!"
The group that came was led by Sun Chang, nicknamed "Big Intestine Brother." He was an idle man who did nothing but loaf around. He had a bunch of underlings, and most of the business people in the city had suffered losses at his hands.
Li Weidong frowned: "Looking for trouble?"
Shen Xiaoyan nodded and said in a low voice, "I'll handle it. Just send them away easily. Today is your big day, so don't say anything or you'll bring bad luck."
As she spoke, she went up to him, beaming with a smile, "Brother Dachang, what a rare guest! But I'm sorry, my brother is having a wedding today, the restaurant is closed, so you..."
"Fuck you!"
Big Intestine Brother shoved her aside, his three-white eyes darting around as he sized up the crowd: "Who is Li Weidong?"
Everyone turned to look at Li Weidong.
Li Weidong frowned: "You're looking for me?"
"So you're Li Weidong, kid?"
Big Intestine Brother pointed his finger at Li Weidong's chest while cursing under his breath.
Li Weidong dodged the attack with a quick movement, and asked with a stern face, "What is it?"
Big Intestine Bro pointed at empty air, stumbled, and immediately became furious: "Hey kid, you still have the nerve to ask me?"
"Let me tell you, you're in big trouble! Someone's offering to buy one of your legs!"
Everyone's expression changed.
A name instantly flashed into Li Weidong's mind.
Just then, Ji Dahai suddenly spoke up: "Sun Chang, you've really made something of yourself!"
Big Intestine Bro was taken aback, turned to look at Ji Dahai, and squinted: "Who the hell are you? You think you can call me by my name?"
The henchman next to him cursed, "Call him Brother Big Intestine!"
"Big Intestine Bro?"
Ji Dahai laughed: "The world has really changed. Any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to call himself 'brother' now."
Big Intestine Bro immediately got angry: "Hey, you're pretty arrogant, aren't you? Give me your name if you dare!"
His gang of henchmen also surrounded him, each one eyeing him menacingly.
Zhang Bin asked with some worry, "Wei Dong, I hope nothing's happened to Boss Ji..."
Before Li Weidong could speak, Shen Xiaoyan laughed: "You don't know what Boss Ji used to do, do you?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than one of Big Intestine's henchmen exclaimed, "Wait, Big Intestine, he looks familiar... like..."
"It's Ji Dahai, the owner of the Wenhe Grand Hotel!"
Big Intestine Bro was stunned for a moment, then became arrogant again: "What's so arrogant about a stinky restaurant owner?"
Over the years, he has collected a lot of protection money from various restaurants.
What happened to the Wenhe Grand Hotel?
No matter how big it is, it's still just a restaurant!
The King of Hell is easy to please, but his underlings are hard to deal with. If you offend him, he has a million ways to ruin the restaurant!
The underling's face turned even paler: "Brother Dachang, you...you've forgotten the Qingyun Gang? Before the crackdown on organized crime, the deputy leader of the Qingyun Gang was named Ji Dahai..."
Big Intestine Bro was startled, finally realizing what was happening, and looked at Ji Dahai in disbelief: "You...you are..."
