Chapter 125: The Toiling Masses Bullied By The Rich Little Landlord

Numerous plates of delicious-smelling Variant Giant Salamander appeared on the tables along with small sauce plates.

The sun hung high in the sky and the heat was sweltering. The men had been digging all morning, and their bronze skin was covered in a layer of glistening sweat.

But the heat and the sweat was not even worth a mention in front of their growling stomachs. The group of thugs each grabbed a pair of chopsticks, dipped the meat in the sauce and stuffed it into their mouths.

"Sss! It's hot!" One of the men yelped loudly as he bit down on the meat without waiting for it to cool, immediately scalding his tongue. His face turned a bright shade of red as he endured the scorching pain, not willing to spit the meat out.

"This is too delicious! It's the first time I've ever eaten something so delicious in my life!"

"Stupid f*ck, the soup is the real treasure! It's so rich and refreshing!"

Every man had their own different preferences. Some were sipping on the soup with an intoxicated expression on their faces, others chewed slowly on the meat.

Actually, the real treasure was indeed the soup! The fat and amino acid from the meat had been integrated perfectly into the soup after being cooked to perfection. Just based purely on the taste, the soup was definitely a level above the meat!

The good thing was that Bei Feng had plenty of meat to spare. Using 100 jin of meat for the meal this time ensured that each person would at least get 1 jin of meat! With the addition of two large bowls of rice per person, everyone was stuffed to the brim.

After lunch, the group all went to lie down under the Banyan tree, forming small groups as they smoked and chatted leisurely.

Half an hour passed like that, before Bei Feng appeared again, smiling kindly at them. "Are you guys done with your lunch? Was it filling?"

"Gulp."

The masses swallowed nervously in tandem as their eyelids twitched fiercely. D*mnit, there must be something bad if the boss is smiling so sinisterly like that!

As expected, Bei Feng's words followed swiftly. "Since you're all done eating, it should be about time to resume your work? There's still quite a lot of digging left to do for my pond."

"Ah!"

"F*ck! I thought that you guys were doing something interesting this morning, so I forcefully switched tasks with someone else! So it was digging a pond?"

The rest smirked coldly as they looked at the idiot upon hearing his words. At the same time, they were throwing pitiful gazes at him.

They were all pulled out and selected for the task, so they had nothing much to feel regretful about. But this idiot actually presented himself to the doorsteps. Thinking of the plight of this fool, the rest also began to feel more appeased.

Only about 10 people had been pulled out to do the miscellaneous tasks like washing the plates and wiping the tables. The rest was all sent to dig the pond.

Time passed quickly amidst hard work. The sky had already turned dark by the time a two meter deep, six-seven meter wide hole was dug with the efforts of nearly 100 men.

The group had been rather lucky. The soil was rather loose and easy to dig in. Otherwise, if there were many stones and roots as was typically the case for land near a mountain, such a result would have been impossible.

After dinner, he quickly moved to chase everyone away. He couldn't house so many people in the old mansion anyway.

But as he thought of the busy scene that'd take place tomorrow, Bei Feng decided to keep half of the men behind and instructed them to spend the night in the village. The rest was allowed to leave.

Those who were allowed to leave were naturally ecstatic and hurriedly left before Bei Feng could call them back, as though they were afraid of having to dig for another day.

Those who were left behind looked like they were being forced to eat a bunch of bitter gourds. Each one was imagining what new plot the big boss was going to pull out to torture them with tomorrow.

The next day, about 10 people were left at Uncle Xia Zhen's shop to lead the customers to the mansion. The rest returned to Bei Feng's mansion and started working.

Those splitting firewood were splitting firewood, and those who were fetching water were fetching water. Bei Feng suddenly found himself with nothing to do.

Shrugging nonchalantly, he summoned Extreme Arctic Frost and made his way to the brook near the back of the mansion. Using the tip of Extreme Arctic Frost, he carved a 30-40 centimeter deep icy path as wide as an infant's fist, connecting it to the shallow pond dug yesterday.

Satisfied with his handiwork, Bei Feng returned to the old mansion. With the speed of the water flowing in, it would probably take quite some time before the pond was filled.

The Variant Giant Salamander was akin to chicken ribs in value to him now. It tasted unappetizing, yet was not bad enough to be thrown away. Keeping it around took too much space too.

In that case, he might as well hold a promotion and sell it quickly. It was not bad to let others enjoy the food anyway. This method was the fastest way to finish the Variant Giant Salamander and be done with it.

Once the clock struck past 11, the customers began to turn up slowly. The weather was as before, hot and unforgiving.

Some of the customers had brought along large umbrellas which they propped over their seats. A few were gathered together under separate umbrellas, chatting leisurely.

The smarter ones directly moved the tables under the shade of the Banyan tree, and some others even moved their tables into the woods nearby.

"Yan Yan, why do I feel like we've entered a bandit's den? Look at all these waiters. It's obvious that they're not good people with just a single look!"

A young girl whispered to the girl beside her. Her voice even slightly quivered as she said the word 'waiters'.

"Don't worry. What are you afraid of? There's so many groups of people who came here before us to eat and nothing happened to them," Zong Yan said casually as she pointed to a table nearby. "See that guy over there? He has a head of blonde and is covered in tattoos, but isn't he still speaking politely to others and behaving normally?"

A 20-odd years old youth with a face like a ruffian sat in the line of sight of Zong Yan's gaze. The only thing that guy lacked was a tattoo on his forehead with the words "I'm a bad guy" to complete his image. Right now, he was smiling amiably and speaking with a 'waiter'.

"Hmm, that's true... looks like this matter is my fault. I shouldn't be judging people by their looks," the girl stuck her tongue out and said with some embarrassment.

At the same time, the guy who was praised as a decent and respectful person was actually behaving like a grandson in front of the 'waiter'.

"Ah, Brother Meng, what are you doing here?" Luo Quan's eyes were almost popping out of its socket.

"You were the one who called for a waiter just now?" Meng Qingfeng stared at Luo Quan expressionlessly.

Luo Quan looked slightly confused for a moment. "Right. Brother Meng, are you here for a meal too? The boss of this place really doesn't know how to run a business! Hasn't he heard of the phrase 'customer is king'? How can he let a king sit out here under the sun and not even offer a cup of water?!"

The corner of Meng Qingfeng's mouth twitched slightly as he squeezed out an ugly smile. "You know me?"

"I know! Of course I know you! I was honored to make your acquaintance the last time at Azure Bar!"

Luo Quan felt extremely excited. The person before him was a big brother character in the triads! The bars he was working in were under the jurisdiction of this Brother Meng. Even his manager was behaving like an obedient grandson in front of him the last time!

Luo Quan was only a lowly logistic supervisor, so if he could make some connections with Brother Meng today, perhaps he might mention him to his manager the next time. With just a single word from Brother Meng, it should be a simple matter to at least get a promotion and a pay raise?

"You got the wrong person. I'm just a waiter here. You wanted some water? I'll bring you a cup," Meng Qingfeng's face darkened as he turned away.

"Brother Meng! I didn't recognize the wrong person!" Luo Quan exclaimed and made to chase after Meng Qingfeng.

Turning around fiercely, a dangerous gleam shone past Meng Qingfeng's eye as he stared Luo Quan dead in the eye. "Do you not understand the words that are coming out of my mouth? I said that you got the wrong guy, so you got the wrong guy! If I find out that you spoke of today's matter outside, you better start preparing your will!"

Luo Quan froze on the spot as he shivered internally. 'What a scary gaze!'

"Quanzi, what the hell is wrong with you? Why are you being so polite to a waiter?"

The people who had come with Luo Quan asked as soon as he sat back down.

Luo Quan shook his head dumbly and did not dare to utter a single word. His mind was filled with the ferocious eyes of Meng Qingfeng, as well as the latter's bone chilling words.

"Dong!"

"Here's your drink. Enjoy."

Meng Qingfeng placed a cup of tea heavily before Luo Quan.

Luo Quan swallowed fiercely as his heart leaped. His heart was filled with regret and he felt like he was sitting on a cushion made of pins. D*mnit, why did he have to call out for a waiter for no good reason? Great. He had indeed made the connection this time, but instead of the benefits he was expecting, the consequences of this meeting seemed to be more serious than he thought... perhaps this Brother Meng would look for him to square accounts after the autumn harvest?

'Sh*t, I can't keep the job at Azure Bar anymore. I'll have to resign as soon as I get back!' Luo Quan's face paled as he hardened his heart.

If he stayed at his job and Meng Qingfeng came looking for him one day to settle the score, he would be in serious trouble!

By the time all the guests had arrived, the ten over pots of Variant Giant Salamander soup were also boiling merrily, letting out plumes of delicious-smelling fragrance.
