Chapter 077: Eating Watermelon at the Food Court (5)
Jiang Minxu picked up the communicator, opened the large group where all the players were, recorded what Zhou Youwei had just said, and sent it as a reminder to all the players.
As for Zhou Youwei, when Jiang Minxu reviewed Min Liang's original copy, he got to know this person and didn't have a good impression of him.
Anyway, the NPC can't just beat Zhou Youwei to death like that, so there's no need to help.
Not long after President Jiang turned and left, the stinky tofu stall owner got tired of beating people and stopped and left.
On the other side, Zhou Youwei, a man with a buzz cut who had just found a job at a fried skewers shop, raised his eyebrows when he heard the voice message Jiang Minxu sent to the group chat: "Zhou Youwei?"
Ji Zehan, who was standing by, did not explain the man's identity, but only asked, "Mr. Zhou, do you want to go and take a look?"
Zhou Da bared his teeth and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Pavilion Master Ji turned around and explained the situation to the fried skewers owner, promising to be back before the store opened, and then left the store with Zhou Dada.
In the bun shop, Liu Tang and Mo Qianhe looked across the square together. After watching the whole process of Zhou Youwei trying to suppress the NPC by force but being unilaterally beaten, they both felt unsatisfied.
Liu Tang shook the buns on his head and commented, "Tsk tsk, that stall owner is really ruthless."
After listening to the group message, Mo Qianhe said to Liu Tang, "Boss, do you know why this stall owner wanted to beat Zhou Youwei?"
At this moment, Liu Tang did not think about revealing his true identity to the other party. He was free to move and had no psychological burden.
He held up his bun hair, looked curious, and asked, "Why? Tell me more!"
Although Mo Qianhe didn't get much information, he still guessed the whole picture of the matter. He imagined what had happened and told Liu Tang about it.
After hearing this, Liu Tang slammed the table and said, "This stinky tofu stall owner is a piece of shit! He actually came up with such a despicable trick to take over the milk tea shop and the shaved pancake shop! He's totally shameless!"
At this moment, Liu Tang's communicator rang.
He flipped his hand and tapped his forearm lightly, and the big head of the stinky tofu stall owner appeared in front of him.
When the call was connected, the other party covered his mouth and whispered stealthily, "This isn't looking good, Uncle. Your suggestion that I hire part-time employees to disrupt the milk tea shop and the shattered pancake shop has been exposed. Should we try a different approach?"
Liu Tang looked at the stinky tofu stall owner in shock, as well as the three words "silly nephew" he had written on the communication interface, and his whole body was broken.
[So the shameless person I've been scolding for so long is actually me?!]
"Uncle, please say something," the stinky tofu vendor said, noticing that Liu Tang hadn't responded. He patted his communicator and said, "The internet connection on this cheap plan is just terrible. Is it stuck again?"
Liu Tang took a long time to organize his words before he spoke: "You mean, I ordered you to deal with both of them?"
The stinky tofu vendor was stunned, looking suspicious: "Uncle, did you clear your memory again? Didn't you say that milk tea and sesame cakes are competitors to our kelp soup and steamed buns?"
"The customer's stomach is so small. After eating the sesame cake, he doesn't want to eat our buns. After drinking milk tea, how can he still drink kelp soup and black rice porridge..."
Liu Tang felt a darkness before his eyes. He had never expected that the NPC identity assigned to him by the copy actually had a plot.
No, he is a good man with a kindness value of over ten thousand, he can't do such a bad thing.
But suddenly taking a 180-degree turn in the subject would definitely arouse the suspicion of the silly nephew opposite.
Liu Tang nodded and said, "Oh, I remember now. My memory has been running low lately, so I wanted to clear it out so I can think more clearly."
The other party was quickly convinced and nodded with confidence: "So what should we do next?"
Liu Tang certainly couldn't let this foolish nephew continue to harm others, so he quickly said, "Let's hold our ground for now. We've already been exposed. If we take action and get reported, everything will be over."
The silly nephew continued to nod: "Uncle is right."
Liu Tang then began to ask, "Have we discussed this matter with anyone?"
The silly nephew shook his head: "You have told me so many times that this must not be spread outside, I will definitely keep it strictly confidential."
Liu Tang thought for a moment and continued, "Did you find any other 'comrades' in the square?"
"A fellow traveler?" The silly nephew pondered for a moment before an idea struck him. "Oh! You mean someone who has the same goal as us?!"
Liu Tang made a "hush" gesture tiredly.
The silly nephew quickly covered his mouth and whispered, "My uncle is smart. He can find other people who want to bring down these two families. Then we can kill them with a borrowed knife!"
Liu Tang was helpless.
This silly nephew is not stupid at all, he is clearly full of evil intentions.
Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is.
Liu Tang remained silent and nodded in a pretentious manner.
The silly nephew seemed to have received an order. The stinky tofu projection on his head was so excited that it flickered with snowflake noise. He whispered, "Okay, I'll start investigating now.
"You mentioned before that the sweet soup stall selling lotus root powder and eight-treasure porridge is a competitor to our kelp soup. If you draw that line, then their milk tea stall is also a competitor. I'm sure they'd be eager to take over this milk tea shop."
"If we can let these two competitors fight each other, then we can reap the benefits.
"I'll get in touch with him first."
Liu Tang's face was full of question marks. There were so many competitors for his kelp soup.
And this silly nephew has a really quick mind.
Seeing his silly nephew about to hang up, Liu Tang hurriedly stopped him: "Wait a minute, you..."
The silly nephew quickly answered: "I know, I know. We must not let others know about our relationship, and we must not let the stall owner know that you are involved. After all, we are competitors. It will inevitably arouse suspicion."
"I'm just a stinky tofu seller anyway. I'm no threat to him."
Liu Tang: "No, you..."
The silly nephew continued to answer: "I know. Before taking any action, I will ask your opinion first. You have said it many times, uncle."
Liu Tang was silent for a while, and finally uttered two words: "Okay..."
After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "Then be careful."
"Thank you for your concern, uncle. I know you are the best to me."
After the call ended, Liu Tang was a little dazed for a moment.
You say this nephew is stupid, but he has a lot of clever ideas. You say he is not stupid, but he is quite happy to be used as a gun by his uncle.
It's really laughable.
Liu Tang turned his gaze to Mo Qianhe standing beside him, and saw that man had a judgmental look on his face: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect the boss to be such a black-hearted businessman."
Liu Tang took a step back and said, "I'm not, I didn't, stop talking nonsense!"
On the other side, Zhou Youwei was sitting on the ground covered in wounds.
Feng Xiansu looked at the man in front of her, feeling a little distressed but more of disgust.
From childhood to adulthood, this man has always been a typical example of bravery but lack of strategy in her eyes.
It would have been bad enough that the NPC tricked me out of my communicator this time, but I was also beaten so badly that I had no chance to fight back. I was so stupid.
"Your name is Zhou Youwei?" A man with a crew cut came over and asked the man sitting on the ground.
Zhou Youwei was angry and cursed "Get out" without looking up at the other person.
Zhou Da was scolded by this person, but he did not get angry. He walked around to the other person and squatted down, saying, "Your grandfather is Zhou Sizhi, the fourth child in the family."
Zhou Youwei was a little surprised to hear this and turned to look at the person who came: "Do you know my grandfather?"
Ever since he entered the dungeon, Zhou Youwei always felt that the man with a crew cut looked familiar, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't remember who this person was.
Now that I look at him carefully, I feel that he is somewhat similar to my grandfather when he was young.
But this man's face is more regular and a bit more handsome than his grandfather's.
The man with the buzz cut smiled at him, revealing the usual shrewdness of the Zhou family men, and said, "I'm Mr. Zhou Dada, do you remember me?"
Zhou Youwei suddenly realized.
He had indeed seen this man look like this, in a photo of his grandfather's peers when they were young.
Everyone said that the eldest master of the Zhou family was the most handsome among the four brothers when he was young.
Zhou Youwei asked uncertainly, "Are you my... great-grandfather?"
The crew-haired man chuckled, "Hey, my dear grandson. I didn't expect to meet a descendant of the Zhou family in this dungeon."
Zhou Youwei had heard rumors about the eldest master of the Zhou family.
The Zhou family was originally working class, and the four brothers were assigned jobs to work in factories.
One year, the eldest son of the Zhou family suddenly had the idea of leaving the north and going to the coast to do business.
No one in the family agreed, but he went anyway.
I didn't expect that he could actually do it.
As a result, the Zhou family rose to prominence. When one person succeeded, the whole family came to prosper. They moved their entire family to the coast and began to expand their business territory in the coastal business world as a family business.
It can be said that Zhou Dazhi is the founder of the Zhou family business.
"I've been here for so many years. Is the Zhou family doing well?" Zhou Da asked with a big smile.
Zhou Youwei was sweating profusely.
Who would have thought that the Zhou family's wealth would not last for more than three generations, and by the fourth generation, the family fortune had almost been squandered.
Zhou Da probably never expected that he would meet the last heir to the "business empire" he built in this "18th level of hell".
Zhou Youwei's forehead was sweaty, and he stammered, "It's fine. Everything is fine."
Feng Xiansu rolled her eyes and said, "What's good about it? They are all dead now."
Zhou Dazhi was about to ask more about the Zhou family, but Zhou Youwei quickly pulled Feng Xiansu over and said, "Grandpa, this is my daughter Feng...ah, my daughter Susu."
Zhou Youwei turned around and said to Feng Xiansu, "Why don't you hurry up and call someone, and call them 'great grandfather'."
Feng Xiansu felt the awkwardness of calling relatives during the Spring Festival when she was a child suddenly come back to her. She uncomfortably called out to the crew-haired young man in front of her, "Great Grandpa."
Zhou Da laughed heartily. "Great, great! I didn't expect to see my great-grandson here. That's great."
Zhou Da took out a few props and stuffed them into Feng Xiansu's hands, saying, "Here, gifts."
Feng Xiansu quickly took it and thanked him: "Thank you, Grandpa."
If you look closely, you will find that they are all junk props hanging in the trading market and no one is bidding for them.
Haha, this old man is really stingy.
That’s right, the godfather is just his brother’s grandson, not his biological grandson. The other party is willing to give some props, which is already the most he can do.
Then Zhou Dazhi took out a bottle of "healing potion" and handed it to Zhou Youwei: "Drink it, and all your injuries will be healed."
Zhou Youwei took it excitedly and drank it all in one gulp. He felt all the pain in his body disappeared and he was a lively and strong man again.
Zhou Youwei was filled with excitement at this moment.
I didn't expect that while I was alive I could be protected by the assets left by the elders of the Zhou family, and I could even meet the ancestors of the Zhou family when I came here.
The other party entered the "18th level of Hell" so long earlier than them, and was able to live safely all this time, which shows that he is definitely not an ordinary person. He was able to spend so many points to exchange for such a young appearance, which shows that he has a lot of points.
They have finally gotten something big this time.
Or particularly strong and thick thighs.
After doing all this, Zhou Dazhi turned and left. Zhou Youwei tried to follow Feng Xiansu, but Zhou Dazhi stopped him with a look: "What are you doing? Are you trying to rely on me?"
