Chapter 641: Gathering at the Door
After learning about Mao Yuchen's situation, Liu Lan stopped trying to persuade him, and only sighed that every family has its own problems. Zhang Pei said that on the night of the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, she would invite Mao Yuchen to have a meal together, as if it were a small New Year's Eve.
On the 29th, they only did some simple finishing work and customer service work in the office. Mao Yuchen asked Liu Lan a lot of inside gossip that ordinary fans would not know.
"Haha, I guess no other fan is as happy as me. I just went to the cinema to watch "Autumn Moon over the Han Palace" last night, and today I can talk about the plot with the heroine face to face," Mao Yuchen felt very happy. "I am still a little obsessed with the plot. When I see you, I think of Wang Zhaojun. I guess after this movie, even if someone remakes it or makes another movie with the same theme, no one can surpass your Wang Zhaojun."
"Is it really that good?" Zhang Pei asked curiously. She was so busy that she had no time to watch her daughter's new movie.
Mao Yuchen nodded, "It's really nice! Look, 90% of the reviews online are positive."
"I'll go to the cinema in a couple of days, too."
As soon as Zhang Pei finished speaking, the sound of a cat's cry was heard from outside.
As mentioned earlier, Mao Yuchen raised seven stray cats in the community where she originally rented, and was later taken by Yu Zhan to roam freely in the yard of the warehouse. The seven stray cats were well-behaved and obedient, and they were all sterilized in Yu Zhan's store. They usually didn't bark unless they were frightened.
In addition, the capital had just snowed heavily two days ago. Liu Lan did not prepare a shelter for the cats, but allowed them to freely enter and exit any room, even the warehouse for cat food. Cats are very smart. When it is cold, they will go into the house or turn on the heater in the security room. When they are bored, they will come out for a walk, free and at ease.
...
...
Therefore, when they heard the cat's meow, Liu Lan, her daughter and Mao Yuchen all felt strange. They walked to the window and looked out, and saw a man holding a cat by the neck outside the yard, with five or six cars parked behind him.
The cat kept struggling, waving its arms and legs in the air, and crying heartbreakingly.
But this man was not a cat thief. Even from a certain distance, Liu Lan recognized him at a glance as the former landlord of the warehouse - Boss Wu.
Liu Lan had a bad feeling in her heart.
Zhang Pei and Mao Yuchen did not show any surprise on their faces. It was only then that Zhang Pei told Liu Lan that this was not the first time Boss Wu had come.
The news of the skyrocketing value of the land where the warehouse was located naturally reached the ears of its original owner, Boss Wu, and Boss Wu felt very bad at the time.
How long had he sold the warehouse? Just three months, and the price had risen from 8 million to an inestimable value. He felt that he had lost a lot!
The more Boss Wu thought about it, the more unbalanced he felt. The next day, he went to Zhang Pei to ask for the difference.
Of course Zhang Pei ignored him.
She said that the deal was over, they signed the contract, she paid him the full amount, and he transferred the warehouse to Liu Lan's company, and they had completed the payment and delivery!
Boss Wu was furious at the time. "The contract is invalid. You cheated me. You must have known in advance that the price of this land would increase, so you suddenly offered to buy my warehouse! How despicable!"
He kept asking Zhang Pei to "make up the difference".
Zhang Pei did know the inside information in advance, but she would definitely not admit it. All businessmen are willing to cheat. "The contract is clearly written in black and white. We both agreed to the transaction. It makes no sense for you to come back to me to ask for money now."
"Is it not okay for me to regret it? I won't sell the warehouse anymore!" Boss Wu said viciously, "I won't sell it anymore! I'll return the money to you, and you guys get out of here!"
Zhang Pei was frightened by Boss Wu's attitude and immediately asked the security guards and workers to kick Boss Wu out.
Boss Wu came again, and this time he brought four helpers. Boss Wu used to be a gangster, and he was very powerful in this area, otherwise he would not have been able to buy this state-owned warehouse in his early years. He knew a lot of miscellaneous idle people in society, and his helpers were all fat and strong, and they didn't look like good people.
It was obvious that Boss Wu had brought people to mess things up, but Zhang Pei was not someone to be trifled with. Her workers numbered more than 40, and once they gathered at the door, there was strength in numbers, so Boss Wu and his helpers did not dare to act rashly. They showed off their power at the door, threatened and insulted her, and then had to leave in disgrace.
When these two incidents happened, Liu Lan was very busy with her studies and work. Zhang Pei didn't want to affect her mood, so she didn't tell her and also told Mao Yuchen not to let anything slip.
