Chapter 138 Defeat the Opponent
The autumn wind blew away the leaves and scattered the bustling tourists in the town.
After the peak tourist season, the streets became much quieter, like a glass of flat soda, lacking the hustle and bustle of summer.
Xu Yao's snack bar was also affected. There were few customers in the store, which was in stark contrast to the crowds of people some time ago.
She sat on the small stool in Xue Han's house, tapping the table with her fingers, making a "thump, thump, thump" sound, like a slow and sad tune.
His brows were furrowed and his eyes were lowered, like a little rabbit lost in thought.
"Oh..." She let out a long sigh, which contained worry about the future, resentment towards Boss Li, and doubt about her own abilities.
Xue Han felt so distressed when he saw Xu Yao's sad face.
He walked up to her, gently put his arm around her shoulders, and said softly like he was coaxing a child: "Yaoyao, don't worry. There will always be a way out when you reach the mountain, and you will naturally straighten yourself when you reach the bridge. We already have a certain foundation. As long as we keep working hard, we will definitely be able to defeat him, just like Ultraman defeated the little monster!"
Xu Yao raised her head and looked into Xue Han's eyes that were full of love and encouragement, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
His words were like a shot of adrenaline, instantly filling her with strength.
She knew that she was not fighting alone, she had Xue Han, Aunt Wang, and Aunt Zhang, they were all her strong backers.
"Yeah!" Xu Yao nodded heavily, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.
She clenched her fists and swore secretly in her heart: Boss Li, just wait for me, I will definitely give you a fatal blow and let you know why the flowers are so red!
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.
Xu Yao understood that in order to defeat Boss Li, he must understand his weaknesses.
She recalled Boss Li's long-standing suppression, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind: Yes, I can start with his credibility!
Thinking of this, Xu Yao took action immediately.
She told her idea to Xue Han, Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang, and everyone agreed that it was a good idea.
Thus, an operation to collect evidence began.
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang are the "informers" in the town. They go to the market to buy vegetables every day and inquire about some gossip.
This time, their task was to collect negative news about Boss Li’s snack bar, such as hygiene issues, food quality issues, etc.
Xue Han used his personal connections to investigate Boss Li's supply channels.
He knows some suppliers and can learn from them information such as Boss Li's purchase prices and sources of ingredients.
Xu Yao went to Boss Li's snack bar to observe in person.
She pretended to be a customer, carefully observed the hygiene conditions in the store, paid attention to the clerk's operating procedures, and even secretly took some photos as evidence.
After a few days, they collected a lot of evidence.
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang found out that Boss Li's snack bar often used expired ingredients and the kitchen hygiene was worrying. Some people even saw rats running around in the kitchen.
Xue Han also learned from suppliers that in order to reduce costs, Boss Li often purchased some inferior ingredients, and even some "three-no products" of unknown origin.
Xu Yao took photos of Boss Li's employees using dirty rags to wipe the table, eating food with their hands, and other unhygienic practices.
Looking at these shocking evidences, Xu Yao's heart was filled with anger.
She didn't expect that Boss Li would be so unscrupulous in order to make money, completely disregarding the health and safety of his customers.
"Hmph, Boss Li, you're dead this time!" Xu Yao gritted her teeth.
She organized the evidence she had collected and prepared...
"Yaoyao, what are you doing?" Xue Han pushed the door open and saw Xu Yao sneering at the documents on the table. He couldn't help but feel curious.
Xu Yao raised her head and smiled mysteriously: "Xue Han, the good show has just begun..." Xu Yao is not a little white rabbit, she is a little fox in rabbit skin, with a black belly!
She compiled the evidence that would make anyone's sanity level drop wildly into a book. It was so clearly organized and full of irrefutable evidence that it was like a "death note" of Boss Li's crimes.
She personally went to the town's health department and industrial and commercial department and slammed the evidence on the table. She looked like a martial arts master who came to challenge the master.
The staff members were nonchalant at first, thinking it was just some trivial matter.
But when they opened the file, they were surprised!
Those photos and records are really eye-catching!
Expired ingredients were piling up, rats were having a party in the kitchen, and the clerk's operation was even more outrageous.
"This...this is too much!" A young staff member covered his mouth and almost vomited.
"We must conduct a thorough investigation!" Another veteran cadre slammed the table and stood up, indignant. "This kind of black-hearted businessman must be taught a lesson!"
Thus, a "Thunder Operation" against Boss Li's snack bar began.
The health department and the industrial and commercial department launched a joint attack and headed towards Boss Li’s snack bar in a mighty manner.
The scene was comparable to the arrest scene in a police and gangster movie.
When Boss Li saw this scene, his face turned green.
He tried desperately to argue that he was wronged, but the evidence was irrefutable and he was powerless to refute it.
In the end, he was fined a large sum of money and the snack bar was ordered to close for rectification.
As soon as the news came out, the whole town was in an uproar.
"Serves him right! This black-hearted boss should have been punished long ago!" Aunt Wang ran around the vegetable market telling everyone. She was so excited that people who didn't know her would have thought she had won the lottery.
"It's really gratifying!" Aunt Zhang also echoed with a big smile on her face.
When Xu Yao heard the news, she felt so happy!
She stood at the door of Xue Han's house and laughed out loud. Her laughter was louder than the howling of wild wolves in the mountains.
"Hahaha! Boss Li, you've finally come to this day!" She put her hands on her hips, looking so proud, as if she were Her Majesty the Queen.
Xue Han looked at Xu Yao's "successful" look and smiled dotingly.
He walked over, gently held her in his arms, and whispered in her ear: "Yaoyao, you are awesome!"
Xu Yao leaned in Xue Han's arms, feeling warm in her heart.
She knew that this victory was inseparable from the help of Xue Han, Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang.
They are like her guardian angels, always silently supporting and protecting her.
After Boss Li's snack bar was closed down, Xu Yao's snack bar business became even better.
Customers all praised Xu Yao's store for being clean, hygienic, and having fresh ingredients and good taste.
Xu Yao's snack bar became the most popular snack bar in town.
However, just as Xu Yao was immersed in the joy of victory, a mysterious call came to Xue Han's mobile phone...
"Hello?" Xue Han answered the phone, frowning slightly.
A deep voice came from the other end of the phone: "Xue Han, you'd better be careful. Some things are beyond your control..."
Beep, beep, beep…
The phone was hung up.
Xue Han held the phone in his hand, his face terribly gloomy. He glanced at Xu Yao who was busy.
"Who's calling?" Xu Yao walked over and asked curiously.
Xue Han forced a smile: "Nothing, just a harassing call."
However, he had an ominous premonition in his heart... This peaceful town seemed to be about to be hit by a new wave of turmoil.
