“It doesn’t matter if you guys change shopkeepers, isn’t it a little unethical for you to sell me rotten vegetables?”
“Rotten vegetables?” Wang Fang said.
“What nonsense are you talking about? The things sold in our shop are the best in the entire market. Don’t slander our family’s reputation.”
“I’ve already asked someone to bring it over. If you don’t believe me, take a look yourself,” Lin Yi said calmly.
“Besides, I don’t have to say much about such things. You don’t have to pretend to be ignorant.”
“What? Are you here to cause trouble?” Wang Fang looked at Lin Yi and shouted.
“Everything was fine when you bought it. After such a long time, you came to me and said that the vegetables were spoiled. I think you’re deliberately trying to extort my money. Don’t think that we’re easy to bully just because we’re vegetable sellers.”
Lin Yi scratched his ear helplessly.
“I can understand the behavior of a small-time citizen like you, but it’s meaningless for you to do this when I’ve already come knocking on your door, right?”
“What did I do? What evidence do you have to say that I sold you rotten vegetables?” Wang Fang said.
“Moreover, I haven’t sold anything ever since I came here. You didn’t buy the vegetables from me. What right do you have to come looking for me now?”
“Nonsense! We bought it from you. Don’t deny it!”
“I’m not denying it, but you never bought anything from me. If you can, bring out the surveillance footage. If you can prove this, I’ll admit it.”
Lin Yi looked around and realized that there were no cameras here.
It was nonsense to want to check the surveillance footage.
“We’ve asked so nicely. Why don’t you listen? This is really a headache.”
“Did I not listen?” Wang Fang said innocently.
“I’m telling the truth, but you can’t blame me if you can’t produce evidence.”
The people in the surrounding shops laughed.
This outcome was within their expectations.
For a shrew like Wang Fang who only cared about money, asking her to return the money was a pipe dream.
Whoosh!
Lin Yi didn’t waste any time and kicked the stall in front of Wang Fang.
This shocked everyone.
Although there had been people who had done this before, the other party was a burly man with a fiery temper.
She had never thought that this seemingly refined man would do such a thing.
Wang Fang was also shocked, but she was a woman who lived in the market all year round. She quickly regained her composure and pointed at Lin Yi’s nose.
“Do you f*cking want to die? I’ve been around for so many years. Do you really think I’m afraid of you?!”
Wang Fang cursed and turned around to call the two helpers behind her.
“What are you staring at! Beat him up!”
In reality, Wang Fang did not need to say anything more as the two helpers had already stood up.
“Did you f*cking come here to cause trouble? Did you think I wouldn’t dare to hit you?!”
With two men backing her up, Wang Fang was full of confidence and was not afraid at all.
The expression on her face was even more arrogant than that of a hooligan on the street.
“Let me tell you, you’ve made a mess here. If you don’t compensate me double today, I’ll definitely beat you up!”
“Do you think I’m afraid of you?”
Lin Yi didn’t say anything else. He walked forward and beat the two helpers to the ground.
With Lin Yi’s ability, dealing with these two people didn’t take much effort.
And now, the system had even rewarded him with an E-rank combat power and improved bone density.
This way, it would be even easier to deal with these two people.
Seeing the two helpers vomit blood from Lin Yi’s beating, Wang Fang was dumbfounded.
This kid looked delicate and refined, but why was he so ruthless?
“I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you. Tell me how to resolve this. You still have a chance before I get completely angry,” Lin Yi said calmly.
“Let me tell you, there’s no way you are taking any money out of my hands!” Wang Fang said.
“And you even smashed my vegetable stall. You’re the one who should compensate me. Otherwise, I’ll lie on the ground and blackmail you to death!”
“Lin Yi, stop.”
“I’ll call the Industry and Commerce Department now and ask them to send someone over. Otherwise, we’ll be the ones in the wrong.”
Ji Qingyan knew very well what to do.
If the other party did not compensate him, he would not be able to do anything.
If he took it from her wallet, the nature of the situation would change and he would be criminally responsible.
Therefore, the best solution now was to call the authorities.
“Alright, tell them to hurry up.”
“Yeah.”
Wang Fang was not afraid at all when she saw Ji Qingyan making a phone call.
“Let me tell you, it’s useless even if you call the Industry and Commerce Department. We know the people in charge of this area. Let me tell you that even if they come, the two of you won’t be able to gain anything.”
Seeing her on the phone, the others laughed as well.
They also knew the situation here.
If they wanted to do business in this area, how could they live in peace if they did not have good relations with the relevant authorities?
If not, when the time came, the authorities wouldn’t help them. They might even be forced to compensate and apologize. This would be suicidal.
“Oh, then you’re quite impressive. I hope you can even influence the director.” Lin Yi smiled.
“What did you say?”
Just as Wang Fang and the others were wondering what was going on, Ji Qingyan made a call.
“Director Sun? I’m Ji Qingyan from Chaoyang Group. I encountered a situation at Agricultural Development Market. Can you send someone over to take a look?”
The call was very short, and she hung up in less than a minute.
The other party also agreed very cooperatively and said that he would deal with this matter as soon as possible.
In a big city like Zhonghai, Chaoyang Group’s market value was far from enough to shake a bureau chief.
However, almost all the higher-ups in Zhonghai knew that Ji Qingyan, the chairman of Chaoyang Group, was the main girlfriend of Lin Yi, the chairman of the Lingyun Group.
This identity was incredible.
Lin Yi could change a bureau director with a wave of his hand.
Who would dare to offend Lin Yi in Zhonghai?
“Director Sun said that he’ll send someone over later,” Ji Qingyan said after hanging up.
“Alright, we have nothing to do anyway.”
“W-What are you talking about? Did you call the director?” Wang Fang was a little flustered. She kept staring at Lin Yi, feeling that this matter was no longer as easy to handle.
“If the clerks below can’t deal with you, I’ll have to get someone from above.”
“Stop trying to scare me. If you know the director, would you need to ride a tricycle to purchase the goods?”
“Logically speaking, you’re right.” Lin Yi said.
“But think about how His Majesty visits the village incognito. Can’t I also ride a tricycle to serve the goods?”

“Don’t try to fool me.”
Wang Fang’s aura had weakened a lot. She was also a little unsure if this was true.
Who could withstand such a situation?
“Don’t panic, show me your aura from earlier,” Lin Yi said, “Don’t be afraid, keep going.”
“You, you guys…”
Wang Fang took two steps back guiltily, then clutched her chest and fell to the ground.
Ji Qingyan was stunned. “What’s going on?”
“She’s scared. She’s trying to scam us.”
“I can’t take it anymore. My heart isn’t feeling well. It’s all your fault!” Wang Fang clutched her heart and rolled around on the ground. Her hair was disheveled, and she gave off the vibe of a street ruffian.
“Now what?”
“Just wait here,” Lin Yi said, “If she really dies, we’ll go straight to the crematorium. If she turns out to be fine, we’ll treat it as fraud.”
