Chapter 145: The Ship is Late and Encounters Headwind



"Stop pretending! Do you think I didn't see it? Why did you send my younger sister and brother-in-law out? What's going on?!"

Comrade Lao Du was silent for a moment and could only tell Du Chen's mother the whole story.

"What's going on? Why are things happening one after another? The cram school has been reported and it hasn't been resolved yet, and now someone is targeting our store."

After hearing what Comrade Lao Du and Du Chen discovered, Du Chen's mother couldn't help but feel even more angry. This was really a case of "the roof leaking but it rains all night", and the ship was late and encountered headwinds.

"Ah, who knows, maybe someone is jealous of our wealth."

Comrade Lao Du also said helplessly.

"Then have you contacted Lao Ding?"

"Not yet. Nothing has happened yet. How can I tell Lao Ding?"

Comrade Lao Du was also scratching his head. If he told the story, it would seem like he was making a fuss out of nothing. If he didn't tell the story, he was afraid that if something happened, it would be too late to tell the story then.

"I think you should talk to Lao Ding! After all, Lao Ding is a policeman. He must have more experience in this kind of thing than the two of us."

"Maybe Lao Ding can give us some ideas, what do you think?"

Du Chen's mother thought it would be safer to talk to Lao Ding.

"Okay, when I go to work later, I'll go to the police station to find Lao Ding and ask him if he has any suggestions."

"Also, you should be more careful at home at night."

Comrade Lao Du worriedly warned Du Chen's mother.

"Don't worry, it's okay. There are so many people and residents in the building. I don't think they dare to come."

Ren Surong felt that there should be no problem with safety, but she now wanted to know what these people were trying to do.

"You have to be careful though. By the way, how's school going these days?"

Comrade Lao Du changed the subject.

"It's still the same as before. There's no movement from the Education Bureau yet. We can only wait and see."

"Is the boss here? Come out and talk?"

In the evening, when the family was having dinner, someone suddenly shouted from outside.

Upon hearing this, Comrade Lao Du knew that they were not here to buy anything, so he asked his wife, who was about to go out, to sit there and eat first, while he planned to go out and take a look.

Du Chen took a look and hurriedly followed Comrade Lao Du out of the inner room.

Comrade Lao Du took a look and realized that these were the people who had been hanging around outside in the past few days. It seemed that the other party could not help it. This was a good thing, at least he knew what the other party's intentions were.

"Are you the boss?"

The leader of the other side looked Comrade Lao Du up and down.

"Yes, I am. What do you want to talk about, friend?"

Comrade Lao Du spoke calmly.

"Boss, you're so straightforward. I'll be frank. Our boss has his eye on your store! Just name the price."

The other party did not hide anything and stated his purpose very readily.

When Comrade Lao Du heard that the other party wanted his shop, he felt half relieved. No matter whether they came for the money or the shop, as long as they didn't come for the people, it would be fine.

"My friend, I'm sorry, I don't have any plans to transfer the store yet."

Comrade Lao Du still calmly said the refusal, and Du Chen carefully observed his expression.

The other person frowned, narrowed his eyes, and stared at Comrade Lao Du for a while. Just when the atmosphere in the whole store was becoming more and more tense, the other person spoke again.

"Boss, think about it carefully! Some people can be offended, and some people can't be offended!"

Although the other party's tone was calm, it was full of threats.

"Oh, my friend, you just said that your boss picked the right store?"

Comrade Lao Du asked the other party to nod and then continued to ask.

"Who is your boss's friend then? I want to meet him too!"

"Brother Ermao, Liu Ermao!"

The other party proudly announced the title of his boss.

Du Chen thought about it carefully and seemed to remember this person.

"Oh, Liu Ermao from the train depot, right? But I really haven't thought about selling the shop. How about asking Brother Ermao to come over and have a chat?"

Hearing the name of Liu Ermao, Comrade Lao Du breathed a sigh of relief. Comrade Lao Du had also heard of this kind of person. He often gathered a few idle people in society to fight and eat and dine free. But if you ask how afraid he is of him, it is not to that extent.

Liu Ermao was at best a thug in the living quarters, nothing serious. Comrade Lao Du hadn't been hanging around for the past six months in vain.

Lao Ding, the chief of the police station in the living area, is a good friend of his, and Mi Duan's relationship with him is getting better day by day. Some things cannot be said openly, but Comrade Lao Du is not a person who does not understand the ways of the world.

Speaking of crooked ways, Liu Yuying, who runs a coal washing plant, is miles ahead of Liu Ermao. Through Liu Yuying, Lao Du has also met a number of wealthy second-generations involved in coal mining. Although they can't be called friends, they still have some acquaintances, so it's no problem to pass on a message and support them.

"What's the matter, boss, you don't give me this face!"

When the other party heard Comrade Lao Du's second refusal, his tone became bad and he threatened Comrade Lao Du again.

"Why, can you make the decision for your boss? Come on, name your price. Tell me how much you want to take over my place!"

Comrade Lao Du was no longer polite and found out the other party's background. Fortunately, he could afford to offend him, so Comrade Lao Du's tone became tough.

The other party was speechless after hearing Comrade Lao Du's question. He no longer dared to underestimate Lao Du. Most people would have offered him tea and water and said good things to him after hearing such a threat from him and then hearing Liu Ermao's name.

But the boss opposite didn't look afraid at all, and even dared to question him. I wonder if he also has some background?
