Chapter 289 A Bottle of Moutai That Was Broken



Ma Sanhuai is a 60-year-old retired doctor who was idle at home. When he heard that Brother Supermarket needed emergency personnel, he came for an interview.

As a result, he became a first responder at the brother emergency station.

He carefully examined the boy's legs and said with a smile, "Boss, the child has no external injuries."

The word "boss" attracted even more people, all eager to see how the boss would demand compensation from the customer.

"It's good that you're alright." Wang Peng patted the boy's head, putting his mind at ease.

The child is a Tier 0 character; if the child gets even a minor cut, this bottle of Moutai wouldn't be enough to cover the child's medical expenses.

"Boss, how much is this bottle of wine?" the old lady asked anxiously, grabbing her grandson's hand.

Saleswoman Yang Mengmeng said eagerly, "Boss, this is the Feitian Moutai Series III, 245 yuan a bottle."

"Ah? I can't afford to pay it back, I can't afford to pay it back." The old man, his spirit drained, sat on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

The grandson cried when he saw his grandmother, and was also frightened into crying, causing chaos at the scene.

Lawyer Zhong Tiezhu walked over to the cleaner and examined the broken bottles in the trash can.

The salesperson wasn't lying; it really was the 245 yuan Series 3.

"Grandma, don't cry, let's talk this out," Li Mingzhu comforted her.

"Girl, I don't have that much money." The old man reached into his pocket and only pulled out a dozen or so yuan.

“The child’s parents are working in the south, and it’s just me and the child at home. I really can’t afford to compensate them…” the old man cried again.

"Why are you crying?" Wang Peng said impatiently. "Have I ever told you to pay me back since just now?"

Upon hearing this, the old man froze on the spot.

Wang Peng said, "The child is ignorant and the supermarket failed to stop him in time, so you don't need to pay for this bottle of wine."

The old man stared in disbelief, unable to believe his ears.

Saleswoman Yang Mengmeng was extremely anxious. She was in charge of the high-end liquor section, and according to the boss, the compensation for this bottle of wine would fall on her shoulders.

She said urgently, "Boss, it's not my fault, there were four customers buying wine at the time..."

"Did I say I blamed you?" Wang Peng interrupted her. "It was an accident, what does it have to do with you?"

"Huh?" Yang Mengmeng was dumbfounded and asked anxiously, "Boss, you won't dock my salary, will you?"

“I already told you, this has nothing to do with you, so why are you having your salary deducted?” Wang Peng pressed.

A moment later, he added, "This bottle of wine is on me, old man, I don't need you to pay for it."

The air fell silent, and everyone stared at Wang Peng.

Is this the kind of boldness a big boss has? Throwing away a bottle of wine worth over two hundred yuan without even blinking an eye.

"Boss, are you serious?" The old man couldn't believe it.

"I keep my word," Wang Peng said. "It was an accident; it's good that the child wasn't hurt."

"Thank you, thank you." The old man got up from the ground. "Boss, I will only buy things from you from now on. I won't go anywhere else."

Wang Peng chuckled lightly, "Where you want to shop is your prerogative, you don't need to tell me."

Li Mingzhu said, "Grandma, I'm pregnant. Could you say something auspicious?"

As she spoke, Li Mingzhu reached out and touched her lower abdomen.

The old man said anxiously, "You two are both good people. The young master will be very wealthy and successful in the future. He will definitely be an outstanding person."

"Hehe." Li Mingzhu said with a smile, "Grandma, I appreciate your kind words."

The old man added, "With parents like you, the young master is sure to be rich and powerful, at least a county magistrate."

"Haha." Li Mingzhu smiled broadly.

Two hundred and forty-five yuan is not a small amount of money, but it's enough to buy a few heartfelt blessings.

Suddenly, someone in the audience started clapping, and soon thunderous applause erupted.

Everyone was clapping, enjoying the spectacle.

Lawyer Zhong Tiezhu sighed inwardly. He had thought Wang Peng was cleaning up the broken bottles to extort more money from the old man, but it turned out the old man didn't want to claim compensation.

It's not that Wang Peng doesn't want to claim compensation, but rather that he wants to turn this bottle of wine into advertising revenue.

An ignorant child broke a bottle of Moutai liquor. The owner gave up civil compensation and even asked paramedics to check if the child was injured.

With such a visionary boss and such a well-organized supermarket, who wouldn't want to work there?

Although it seems like a bottle of wine was lost, it actually gained a reputation as a "conscientious supermarket," making this advertisement a sure-fire success.

However, regardless of the circumstances, it is a fact that Wang Peng waived his claim.

A gentleman judges by actions, not intentions; it is true that Zhong Tiezhu judged a gentleman by the standards of a petty person.

“Mr. Wang.” Zhong Tiezhu took out his business card. “I am the manager of Tiezhu Law Firm, specializing in economic disputes.”

"Hello, Attorney Zhong." Wang Peng accepted the business card with both hands and then gave him his own.

After exchanging business cards, Zhong Tiezhu said, "I can provide you with legal advice; we can cooperate."

"Thank you." Wang Peng nodded. Doing big business definitely requires a lawyer.

The two arrived at a less crowded area. Wang Peng didn't see Wang Song and subconsciously looked towards the stairwell.

"Brother Peng," Dong Shishi whispered, "he left while you were dealing with the dispute."

Wang Peng nodded, increasingly feeling that Wang Song was very abnormal; judging from his expression, it seemed as if he was entrusting his affairs before his death.

Dong Shishi said, "He was very happy when he left, with a smile on his face."

Wang Peng said, "Ask Du Lei if he asked Du Lei for the medical examination report. If so, go to the hospital to check his medical examination results."

Dong Shishi nodded and turned to go upstairs to find Du Lei.

Wang Peng brought Zhong Tiezhu to the office and poured him a cup of tea.

"I believe you are a kind person because you dealt with the child who broke the bottle. However, kindness is easily taken advantage of."

Zhong Tiezhu said, "If everyone finds out, some parents will deliberately let their children do whatever they want, since they don't have to pay for the broken things."
