But in the end, Bai Jingyan shook his head. He felt that his previous thought was really ridiculous.
I've become a bit obsessed; I keep thinking about that person and I think everyone around me is suspicious of her.
Who told that girl to be so tough?
However, no matter how strong she is, she will still be subject to certain policy restrictions.
Returning to the city now is not so easy. He has some information channels in the Northeast and knows that Luo Zixi is doing quite well.
He had previously captured enemy agents and performed exceptionally well during the autumn harvest, but he always liked to get into conflicts with others.
But considering Luo Zixi's fiery temper, she's not one to suffer a loss. And the educated youth around her are a bunch of pretentious types, so conflicts are to be expected.
Luo Zixi is already being kind by not bullying others, so why would she be afraid of others bullying her? She's really overthinking it…
Thinking of Luo Zixi, Lao Bai couldn't help but smile.
However, when Luo Zixi saw this scene, she felt that Lao Bai's made-up face suddenly revealed a malicious smile, which made her feel inexplicably uneasy.
Old Bai was still arguing with the person next to him.
Those resellers from earlier also had their eyes on Luo Zixi's goods.
After all, anything produced by Luo Zixi is bound to be of high quality!
Now that Lao Bai has jumped out to stop them, it proves the saying: "Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents."
This immediately angered all of them:
"Where did you come from, kid? When your grandpa was buying and selling in the capital, you were still playing in the mud. This is Pigeon Market, don't you know the rules?"
"Exactly, do you think this is some kind of place where you can just run wild? Do you think the people in charge of Pigeon City are just sitting around doing nothing?"
"Forget about those in charge, even if all of us stood here, could you possibly steal our business?"
Luo Zixi couldn't help but chuckle to herself. She never expected that Lao Bai could be so domineering and unreasonable.
However, she had never done business with Lao Bai before. Although she hadn't known Lao Bai for very long, she knew that he wasn't an unreasonable person.
His aggressive and domineering behavior today must have had a reason.
At this moment, Luo Zixi revealed a kind and gentle smile, making Sister Ma appear exceptionally kind and friendly.
"Hey everyone, calm down, calm down... When we're out doing business, harmony brings wealth. It's just some goods, right? I have plenty here."
"I have as much as you want, I'm just worried you don't have enough money! Young man, don't be impulsive, just tell me how much you want and I'll get it for you."
"Of course, I also know that some people probably think that I'm an easy woman to manipulate, and that they'll try to do something to me once I leave this market."
"Here, I must warn these petty scoundrels: you can try to double-cross us, but you'd better see if you have the life to do it!"
At this moment, Luo Zixi spoke the coldest words in the kindest tone.
Sister Ma always had a smile on her face, giving people a very friendly feeling, making people think that this woman was very easy to talk to.
Old Bai seemed a little anxious at this point. The harsh words he had just said were actually meant for these people.
He could tell that these resellers had malicious intentions.
Previously, Luo Zixi had only sold a small amount of premium grains, but it had already given people a taste of success.
They all wanted to know through what channels Luo Zixi obtained these premium grains. If they knew the channels, would they still worry about not making money?
Since Sister Ma has connections, let's grab her and interrogate her thoroughly. These are turbulent times, and people's hearts are unpredictable; things get even more chaotic at times like these.
Everyone thought that a woman was easy to manipulate. Even if she had other helpers, there were so many resellers in the entire Pigeon City, and behind them stood a group of powerful people. They weren't afraid!
If you want to do business here, you have to be sincere. We can all make money together, and they want to take the lion's share!
That's why Lao Bai was worried and wanted to intercept Sister Ma in advance and take her elsewhere to discuss some more honest business.
Others may no longer use the old methods to talk to Sister Ma.
But Lao Bai didn't know that the "Sister Ma" in front of him was the person he cared about most, and a super ruthless person who feared nothing.
Seeing that everyone was being polite to Sister Ma on the surface, but actually harboring malicious intentions, Lao Bai couldn't help but become even more anxious.
He had a vague feeling that he had to help this "Sister Ma" in front of him today no matter what, otherwise he would definitely regret it.
"Young man, how about we work together again next time? These older brothers are very enthusiastic, and the goods I brought today should be just enough to share with them. Just wait a moment, next time I'll definitely make you satisfied. I like young men the most."
Sister Ma raised her eyebrows in a flirtatious manner, looking quite interested in Lao Bai.
A group of greasy middle-aged men nearby immediately started making lewd jokes:
"Hey, little sister, aren't you being disrespectful to us older brothers? Don't underestimate us just because we're older; we're still got it."
"Haha, that's right! This young man just charges ahead recklessly, he doesn't have any skills at all. Come on, get closer to the older brothers, and you'll definitely see that experience matters!"
Upon hearing this, Sister Ma immediately said in an annoyed tone:
"Go away, you old folks, you just like young girls, don't you? What's wrong with an old woman likes young men?"
"Are we still going to do the deal? If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll give all the goods to this handsome young man today. It'll be a good opportunity to build a relationship."
Upon hearing this, the group of older men immediately quieted down.
"Hey, that won't do, little sister. We've already agreed, how can we go back on our word? Quick, quick, take us to where you have your stock. I'll bring more men with me so we can move things under the cover of night!"
Old Bai became even more anxious, but when he saw Sister Ma give him a wink, he immediately understood.
Sister Ma already knew exactly what was going on.
Only then did Lao Bai feel relieved.
He could tell that those old Bi Dengs had ill intentions, so he decided to secretly follow them and protect Sister Ma, who seemed quite unusual to him.
Luo Zixi was very confident in her disguise skills. She knew that Lao Bai definitely hadn't seen through her disguise. He was just being kind-hearted and didn't want her to suffer any losses. He also wanted to trade something he wanted from her.
Therefore, she can't stand seeing others do something underhanded to her...
Having figured this out, a hint of a smile appeared in Luo Zixi's eyes. However, looking at the several smugglers following her, she couldn't help but feel disgusted.
These guys tried to outsmart her, but they clearly made a mistake.
Luo Zixi led a group of people through a maze of turns to an abandoned courtyard. She gently pushed open the door and gestured for a group of old men to follow her inside.
"Come on, guys, my men have been waiting here for a long time."
However, the next second, these old men witnessed a scene they would never forget...
