Without saying any words, they used their bodies as a sandbag burying Su Ergouâs body.
Su Ergou was pinned to the ground and could not move.
He gritted his teeth angrily and said: âLet go of me! If you have the ability, then fight me fairly if you dare!â
If both sides were fighting in a fair situation, Su Ergou was not a weak opponent. But this group of people were shamelessly playing tricks, they simply didnât give Su Ergou a chance to make a move.
His face was pressed against the icy snow, and his teeth were clenched.
He struggled unwillingly.
The more he struggled, the tighter he was pressed by the human sandbag above his body.
Although the economy is running pretty decently, it was not a peaceful and prosperous time either. If they didnât use some tricks or any underhand methods, then how could Jinji be the leader and maintain its achievements in the town?
There was a raging flame of anger burning in Su Xiaoxiaoâs heart, but she didnât show it at all on her face.
She was very calm.
Calm to the point of being cold-blooded.
Somehow, Shopkeeper Sun, who was clearly in control of the situation, suddenly felt inexplicably shocked when he looked at her.
âMiss SuâŠâŠâ
He opened his mouth.
Su Xiaoxiao calmly said, âLet my younger brother go and I will sell you the recipe.â
Su Ergou was shocked: âJie!1â
1Jie (ć§) : older sister.
Shopkeeper Sun smiled brightly and said, âIf you had said that earlier, then it wouldnât have happened, right?â
He put away his smile, and looked coldly at the several big men who were holding down Su Ergou, âWhat did you do to little brother Su? Did I let you guys do that?â
âAiyoo! Misunderstanding!â A big man who was the leader was the first one to get up and pulled his brothers away, âGet up, get up! Everyone get up!â
Several human sandbags got up from Su Ergouâs body, then the big man who was the leader chuckled and smiled while extending his hand to Su Ergou, âLittle brother, are you okay? It was a misunderstanding just now, I will apologize to you ah.â
Su Ergou glared at him coldly, ignoring the hand that was extended over. He just got up by himself, and walked to Su Xiaoxiaoâs side.
âJie, donât sell it!â
Shopkeeper Sun smiled and said, âAiyaah, itâs really freezing cold outside. Miss Su, shall we talk in the carriage?â
Su Xiaoxiao refused, âNo need, Iâm too fat, Iâm afraid your carriage wonât fit.â
Shopkeeper Sun: ââŠâŠâ
Shopkeeper Sun knew that she was angry at him for bullying her younger brother, but he was also helpless, right?
If only this girl had been obedient earlier, then no one would have to suffer the pain, right?
Shopkeeper Su said, âMiss Suââ
Su Xiaoxiao said: âStop talking nonsense, I can sell you the recipe, but the price must be right as well. Otherwise, you will not get the recipe!â
Shopkeeper Sun seemed to have heard a big joke and even changed the way he called Su Xiaoxiao: âGirl, do you think you are still qualified to negotiate terms with me now?â
Su Xiaoxiao said firmly, âShopkeeper Sun, this is not a condition, but my bottom line! I would rather stop doing the snack business than sell my unique recipe at a low price! If you think you can go and get a better one, then you can just forget what I said.â
âTen taels.â Shopkeeper Sun said.
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him and said, âWhich recipe do you want to buy?â
Manager Sun stretched out his finger and said, âThree recipes!â
Wifeâs cake, chestnut cake, egg yolk pastry, he wanted all of them!
Su Xiaoxiao said, âTen taels, I can earn it back in ten days. The price that you set is ridiculously low.â
âFifteen taels! I canât give more!â Shopkeeper Sun said, âMiss Su, donât blame me for not reminding you. Itâs better to have business than no business at all. Donât let your emotions affect your decisions, and do something that will ruin your future because of momentary anger.â
Su Xiaoxiao was not threatened by his words, and his expression still remained calm: âDo you think that if you cut off my flour supply, then I wonât be able to do anything? As long as I can buy wheat, I can make flour myself! Or do you think⊠your Jinji has become so powerful that it can even control the wheat supply for the whole town?â
