Li Huan was confident, but he pretended to be deep in thought and feigned hesitation.
The scene was quiet, and everyone was watching Li Huan.
A look of worry flashed in Wu Song's eyes.
Li Huan replied, "If I can't deliver a thousand boxed meals, two thousand bottles of beer, and two thousand cans of Sprite, and the spicy soup in the food buckets can't even feed a thousand people, then I won't charge you a penny for the boxed meals, and the tricycle will belong to Master Zhu!"
Zhu Chaofeng immediately became excited: "Is this really true?"
Li Huan said, "It's absolutely true! Hu Sanniang can testify to that!"
After saying that, Li Huan released Hu Sanniang's neck.
"Cough cough..." Hu Sanniang coughed a few times, then suddenly swung her fist at Li Huan to vent her dissatisfaction.
Li Huan grabbed Hu Sanniang's wrist, leaned close to her ear, and whispered a reminder.
"Don't forget the solemn oath you swore, and don't forget the photos I took!"
Hu Sanniang glared angrily with her almond-shaped eyes: "You scoundrel, spouting nonsense, you actually want to marry me..."
Li Huan laughed and said, "I was just deliberately provoking Zhu Biao, why are you angry?"
Seeing Li Huan and Hu Sanniang whispering closely together, Zhu Biao's eyes almost bulged out of their sockets.
Zhu Chaofeng quickly said, "Alright! Please let Hu Sanniang be the witness!"
Li Huan released Hu Sanniang's wrist and looked at Zhu Chaofeng.
"When will the 100,000 taels of silver from Master Zhu be delivered?"
Zhu Chaofeng laughed and said, "One hundred thousand taels of silver will require five carriages to load, and it will be delivered in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"
He immediately ordered the soldiers to rush to the treasury.
Li Huan noticed that Zhu Chaofeng's eyes were darting around, clearly indicating that he was trying to play tricks.
Suddenly, Li Huan pulled out the "Red Brocade Lasso" from Hu Sanniang's lower back, quickly tied Zhu Biao's hands, led him to the back of the car, and firmly tied him to the rear bumper.
Zhu Biao was tall and strong, so at this moment he could only bend over or squat down.
The "Red Brocade Lasso" is extremely tough and difficult to cut with swords and knives. It also has golden hooks and barbs, making it impossible for Zhu Biao to break free.
Zhu Chaofeng frowned, his thick eyebrows furrowed, and asked unhappily, "Why are you binding my son?"
Li Huan said, "If you cheat and don't give me the money, I'll drive my car, drag Zhu Biao, from Zhu Family Village to Hu Family Village, and then to Li Family Village!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Sanniang's expression changed drastically!
"Master! This carriage is extraordinary; it doesn't need horses, yet it's faster than horses!"
Zhu Chaofeng understood.
Li Huan drove Zhu Biao away, and Zhu Biao ran with his back bent, which was tantamount to inflicting cruel torture!
How could Hu Sanniang bear to see her fiancé suffer?
Just as she was about to accuse Li Huan, she heard Zhu Biao shout!
"I, the young master of the Zhu Family Manor, am not going to be outrun by a broken-down carriage! Third sister, you have nothing to worry about!"
Holy crap, that's incredibly extravagant!
Li Huan laughed and said, "As long as Master Zhu pays the money, I swear to God, I will release Zhu Biao!"
Zhu Chaofeng glanced at his son, then at the food bucket in the car, and grinned.
A gentleman's word is as good as his bond!
Li Huan said, "In addition to the 100,000 taels of silver for the boxed lunches, you also have to compensate for three dining tables, totaling 30,000 taels of silver!"
Zhu Long roared, "What kind of lousy dining table is this, costing thirty thousand taels of silver?"
Li Huan shrugged: "I don't care about the money, but you have to make an exact replica of the folding dining table and give it back to me!"
Zhu Chaofeng reached out and picked up the damaged dining table, carefully examining the metal folding legs and fastening screws.
Li Huan laughed and said, "You could never have seen such high-end goods from overseas foreign lands."
Zhu Chaofeng knew that if he couldn't even repair this damaged dining table, how could he possibly create two dining tables that had been kicked to pieces?
He raised his head and said loudly, "If you deliver the boxed lunch, beer, Sprite, and spicy soup, I will pay you 130,000 taels of silver! If you break your promise, may I die without a burial place!"
Li Huan cautioned Hu Sanniang, "Sister! Don't favor the Zhu Family Village, or it will damage the Hu family's reputation!"
Hu Sanniang said, "I will not show favoritism, and I ask you to keep your promise and release the young master."
Li Huan said no more, walked to the food bucket, and picked up the ladle.
"Master Zhu, instruct five hundred villagers to go home, get their bowls, and line up to receive their boxed lunches and spicy soup!"
Zhu Chaofeng immediately gave the order.
The villagers were overjoyed and spread the news, rushing home to fetch their bowls.
Li Huan was in no hurry, humming a little tune as she served the food and rice.
"If you're going to marry, don't marry anyone else, you must marry me!"
"Bring your dowry and your maidservants, come with me to the bridal chamber!"
Hu Sanniang's face flushed slightly, and she said irritably, "What kind of singing is that! It's full of vulgar language!"
Li Huan chuckled and teased, "Young lady, you don't understand, do you? This is a folk love song from a foreign land called 'The Wife of Hujiacheng,' which expresses longing for a happy life!"
"Hu Jiacheng?" Hu Sanniang frowned slightly.
Li Huan explained in a serious tone: "That town in the foreign land is also inhabited by many people with the surname Hu, hence it is called Hu Family City!"
Hu Sanniang understood Li Huan's implied meaning, and her face turned even redder.
Wu Song still held his steel knife and stood beside Zhu Biao to prevent being ambushed.
Li Huan continued serving food and rice, repeatedly singing "Hu Jiacheng's Wife," her voice growing louder and louder.
"Hu Jiacheng's wife has such long, beautiful hair, and her eyes are so pretty!"
"If you are to marry, don't marry anyone else, you must marry me..."
Zhu Chaofeng, Zhu Long, and Zhu Hu watched coldly from the sidelines.
Zhu Biao squatted at the back of the car, his face turning green...
Twenty minutes later.
More than 500 villagers stood in front of the electric tricycles, each holding a large porcelain bowl, waiting in line.
At this moment, Li Huan had already served two hundred boxed meals.
Eight food buckets and one rice bucket were completely emptied.
Zhu Chaofeng saw this and was overjoyed.
Zhu Long and Zhu Hu were eager to confiscate the electric tricycle.
