Chapter 491 Feng Gan Meets a Reject
Hefeng Town.
The long street was bustling with people, and shouts filled the air.
A richly dressed man, accompanied by a retinue, wandered the streets.
He walked from one shop for sale to another, his expression growing increasingly gloomy.
In the end, he was carried out by his household servants.
"Let go, let go of me! This man is going too far! His shabby shop dares to ask me for two hundred taels? Why doesn't he just rob me?"
Feng Gan struggled in the hands of his attendants, and was eventually carried into a small alley and sat down.
The attendant immediately took out a fan and fanned Feng Gan, saying, "Young master, calm down. Let's not argue with them. They are blind and not worth your anger!"
As he spoke, he handed Feng Gan a cup of tea and said, "Young master, this is tea that I just had brewed for you. Please drink it. I'll have them find two more places, and I guarantee it won't be like the previous ones. How does that sound?"
He coaxed Feng Gan like a child, gradually calming the furious Mao Shunping down.
Feng Gan's face clearly showed his displeasure. He said angrily, "Afu, tell me, where do those people get their confidence that their shop is so great?"
"Take that guy on East Second Street for example. His shop is small, in an inconspicuous location, and the owner has a bad temper. No wonder he has no business and has to sell the shop. He deserves it!" he cursed angrily.
Afu immediately chimed in, "That's right, he not only has a bad temper, but he's also ugly, scaring away all the customers! Unlike you, young master, you're the most handsome one wherever you go, loved by everyone!"
Feng Gan listened with satisfaction and then went on to criticize the next person, "And that guy on North First Street, although the location is excellent, his shop is as dilapidated as a beggar's den. He's unwilling to repair it, no wonder he can't make any money!"
Afu continued Feng Gan's words, saying, "That's right! They say you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. People who are so stingy and lack foresight will only lose money in business!"
The master and servant sat at the entrance of the alley, ranting and raving, cursing almost every place they had ever been.
Amidst Afu's repeated coaxing, Feng Gan finally vented his anger and downed the cold tea in his hand in one gulp.
Then, he frowned, threw the cup at Afu, and said, "Who brewed this tea? It tastes awful!"
Afu immediately pointed at the attendant beside him and said, "Hey you, drag this tea-brewing guy out and give him ten lashes!"
The attendant standing nearby looked puzzled.
Who to hit?
Who made the move?
The tea was brewed by Afu; could it be that he was the one who made it?
The group looked at each other, then saw Afu making faces at them.
"What are you doing? Your efficiency is so low, no wonder I got dragged into this!" Feng Gan glanced at Afu with a look of disgust.
Afu grabbed someone and threw them out, saying, "What are you all doing? Hurry up and grab him and beat him up so the young master can calm down!"
The person who takes the blame has no choice but to accept their fate, be dragged away, and get a beating.
Hearing the shouts from the side, Feng Gan finally cleared away his displeasure.
For him, only such wailing could bring him physical and mental pleasure.
Or perhaps, this kind of oppressive life is the kind of life Feng Gan should have.
Instead of having to put up with other people's attitudes and being unable to vent your anger!
Seeing that Feng Gan was in a better mood, Afu immediately signaled the people next to him to stop.
He grinned and leaned closer, asking, "Young master, shall we continue, or go to a restaurant for a nice meal to treat ourselves?"
Afu had been with Feng Gan the longest and understood his thoughts best; two sentences from him struck a chord with him.
Right now, what he wants most is to find a restaurant, sit down, have some drinks and snacks, and ideally, have a pretty girl accompany him.
Thinking of this, a lewd smile appeared on Feng Gan's face.
Seeing this, Afu immediately shouted to his attendants, "Hurry up, get ready, let's go to Jinyulou and call a girl from the music hall to play the zither..." He directed everyone to get moving.
Soon the carriage arrived, and Afu bent down to invite Feng Gan to get in.
Feng Gan put his hand on Afu's arm, preparing to get into the carriage, but stopped.
no!
He promised Wan Qiqi he would help her sort this out; a man should not break his word.
But he is Feng Gan, isn't it normal for him to break his word?
Just as he was about to get into the carriage, he stopped again.
He had already made a promise to Wan Qiqi. If it didn't work out, wouldn't he lose face?
No, we have to keep looking!
Thinking of this, Feng Gan removed his hand from Afu's arm and said, "The matter isn't finished yet, what are you going to do for fun? Keep looking for a shop, I don't believe that it's really that hard to find a shop!"
There are actually many shops in Hefeng Town, but not many meet their requirements.
Wan Qiqi has a discerning eye, and Feng Gan has an even more discerning eye.
After searching high and low, they still felt that the shops they looked at were missing something, that they were never quite satisfied, yet they were unwilling to lower their standards.
One person felt that their requirements were not high, while the other felt that it wasn't that their requirements were high, but that the shop was so bad that it was simply unacceptable.
At this moment, Feng Gan finally realized why Wan Qiqi, who was so adept at working in restaurants, was constantly running into obstacles when looking for a shop.
As the eldest son of the Feng family, even though he could flaunt his status and act arrogantly everywhere, there were still many things he couldn't reach.
After searching all day, he was exhausted. He sat down in an open space, set up a chair, and drank to relieve his frustration.
As usual, Afu fanned Feng Gan with a fan and said some flattering words.
If people keep saying these things, they'll get tired of it and naturally won't give you a pleasant look.
Feng Gan shoved Afu aside and said impatiently, "Shut up, you're making my ears ache!"
