The leader was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, with the exposed parts covered with tattoos. He had a burly figure and a face full of flesh. At first glance, he was not a character to be trifled with.
The expressions of everyone in the Archaeological Association changed slightly, and several people even whispered: "It's Brother Dao!"
Brother Dao was obviously this person's name. Without even looking at the crowd, he walked directly to the boss and said, "Old Zhou, is it time to pay the security maintenance fee for this month?"
When the owner of the porridge shop saw the visitor coming, he had a look of horror in his eyes. When he heard the man's words, he begged: "Brother Dao, you have to pay the rent this month, can you please take a break?"
He was clearly an elderly man, but he called a man in his twenties, Brother Dao, with a begging look on his face. This was an unbelievable thing, but among the people present, no one showed the slightest surprise. Instead, one
I held it in my head for fear of getting into trouble.
Only Liu Wanting looked at this scene in shock! Security maintenance fee?
Isn't this obviously just collecting protection money?
Shudu is the central city of Western Shu Province, and the public security conditions have always been very good. Why would anyone dare to collect protection fees?
"Take a moment?
Lao Zhou, my brothers all need to eat. If you delay, everyone will not be able to eat and will have no energy. Who will ensure the safety of your hotel?"
Brother Dao didn't pay attention to the looks of others and gave the porridge shop owner a sinister smile.
The boss's face changed, and he naturally heard the threat in the other person's words.
Zhang Yuqing and others naturally understood that Brother Dao was here to collect protection money! However, everyone obviously understood Brother Dao's prestige in this area and did not dare to say anything more. They all quickly stood up and left the place.
A place of right and wrong.
Who would have thought that a lazy voice would sound at this moment: "Seniors, you just finished eating the boss's porridge and saw that the boss was being bullied. Are you going to leave just like that?"
Ye Xiu's voice wasn't too loud, but it was just enough for Brother Dao and others who were not far away to collect the protection fee to hear it, and they all looked this way.
Feeling so many angry looks, Zhang Yuqing and others who were about to leave almost staggered.
What does it mean to just eat the boss’s porridge?
Isn't this what you asked for?
But Ye Xiu's last sentence also made them lose face. However, facing the gazes of Brother Dao and others, no one dared to stand up and speak for the boss! "Ye Xiu, Brother Dao is a civilized person, how could he bully the boss?
This is just discussing business with the boss!"
Zhang Yuqing even found a reason for himself that even he didn't believe.
"Oh, it turns out we're talking about business!"
Ye Xiu looked at Zhang Yuqing with a half-smile.
Seeing Ye Xiu's mocking expression, Zhang Yuqing wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. Yes, the other party was collecting protection money and bullying the boss, but so what?
The boss of the other party is Jiang Yunshan, the leader of Shudu Road. No one in this area knows his name. Even the local police station can't do anything to him. He and others are just ordinary college students, what else can they do?
Is it possible to jump out and act bravely?
If you really do that, not to mention that you can't help the porridge shop owner at all, and you and others will not get any good results. Who is willing to touch this brow?
I was about to be shameless and stick to my opinion. Brother Dao next to me had already looked over: "What, do you have any objections to me?"
Zhang Yuqing trembled, quickly moved away, and stood aside. He neither defended Ye Xiu nor talked to Brother Dao, as if he and I were not familiar with each other.
Liu Wei, Zhang Wei and others also quickly retreated, and instantly distanced themselves from Ye Xiu, as if to express to Brother Dao that they were not familiar with this guy either.
Everyone looked at Ye Xiu with eyes full of contempt. This guy was really a new student. He didn't know anything and just wanted to stand up for himself. Didn't he ask about other people's details first?
What should you do now?
"No objection..." Just when Zhang Yuqing and others thought that Ye Xiu would continue to pick on Brother Dao shamelessly, and would probably be beaten up by Brother Dao and others until his face was bruised and bruised, they saw Ye Xiu simply shook his head.
Shake his head.
Everyone looked at each other, this coward, didn't he look upright and awe-inspiring just now?
Why did Brother Dao get so scared when he looked at me?
Liu Wanting was originally a little worried about Ye Xiu, and was wondering whether to call the police. Suddenly she was slightly startled when she heard Ye Xiu's words.
"If you don't have any objection, just get out of here!"
Seeing Ye Xiu being forced by his momentum, Brother Dao immediately snorted coldly and turned his attention to the porridge shop owner.
"I heard you right just now. You are discussing a business deal with your boss, right?"
Ye Xiu wasn't angry either, he just stood up from his seat and walked over slowly! "Not bad!"
Brother Dao was stunned and didn't understand where this kid came from, but he once again set his sights on Ye Xiu! "You want to protect the safety of the boss's shop, so you charge him a protection fee, oh,
It’s security maintenance fees, right?”
Ye Xiu said slowly.
"So what?"
Brother Dao was already a little impatient. Zhou Yuqing and others also looked at Ye Xiu with suspicious expressions. What on earth is this kid doing?
"This is a fair deal!"
Ye Xiu said very seriously.
Zhou Yuqing and others were completely speechless. Just now, they thought Ye Xiu wanted to stand up for his boss, but in the end, he actually wanted to curry favor with Brother Dao and negotiate a fair deal?
Is this behavior of forcibly charging protection fees called fairness?
"Of course it's fair. I always do things fairly!"
Brother Dao didn't expect that this young man would say such words after talking for a long time, so he immediately patted his chest and snorted coldly.
Now, no more than in the past, even if you want to collect protection fees, you still have to find a good reason, right?
Nowadays, some people say that they do things fairly. Doesn’t this indirectly prove that their reasons are very valid? “I like you as a kind person, how about we also make a deal?”
Ye Xiu looked pleased.
Zhang Yuqing and others no longer knew what to say. They all looked at Ye Xiu with disdain, kind man?
This is basically a group of gangsters who bully the weak and fear the strong. You actually call him a kind person?
Even if you want to flatter me, you don't have to say such disgusting things, right?
Brother Dao and others were a little dumbfounded, kind people?
Make a deal?
Does this kid also want to ask himself and others to protect him?
"What deal?"
Brother Dao suddenly became interested! "Because your safety cannot be guaranteed, as long as you pay some money, I can guarantee your safety!"
Ye Xiu said very seriously.
But everyone who heard this sentence, including the porridge shop owner, was stunned...
