Chapter 488 Blackmail
Since Tong Kun didn't help him carve the pendant, Li Fei thought that he might be able to find some good items by going to the third floor of the dungeon and give them to Fang Jingyi as a gift.
Before Li Fei took a few steps, he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and smiled when he saw the man's appearance.
"Uncle Li, what a coincidence, you are here too."
This person was Uncle Li who was shopping with him and Xiaowei that day.
"I saw you, Xiaowei's friend, when I was far away. I haven't seen you for several days. What did you come here to buy today?"
Uncle Li's serious face showed a bit of smile.
Li Fei shook his head: "No, I have a friend who is getting married soon. I'll come over and find Tong Kun to carve a pendant..."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard someone in the distance shouting out of breath: "Little friend, wait for me."
Li Fei followed the sound and saw Tong Kun running towards him at a sprinting speed. When he reached him, he was panting from exhaustion, hunched over and unable to straighten his back.
"Master Tong, why are you here?"
"Ha...haha, little...little friend."
Tong Kun took a few deep breaths, with a smile on his face: "Of course I want to carve a pendant for my little friend."
Then, pretending to be nonchalant, he turned sideways and saw Uncle Li beside him, deliberately showing a look of surprise.
"Sir, you are here too."#@$&
Uncle Li didn't answer, he just nodded his head, which was regarded as a response.
"Master Tong, you are so funny. Just now you said that you have too many orders. I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey to carve pendants. My friend will get married the day after tomorrow, and I can't afford you."
This Tong Kun came over in such a hurry and even offered to carve a pendant for himself. He and Tong Kun had nothing in common.
The only possibility is the Uncle Li next to him.
He was already very unhappy with Tong Kun, so naturally he didn’t need to give Tong Kun any good looks.%&(&
"This... this order... can be delayed, or the little friend's pendant is more urgent." Tong Kun felt a chill down his back when he heard what Li Fei said.
"No need, Master Tong, please go back." Li Fei said coldly.
"Don't." Tong Kun begged with a sad face.
President Li must have heard what this young man said. He must have understood the cause and effect of the matter and knew that he was making things difficult for this young man.
If I can't convince the young man to let him carve the pendant, then not only will I no longer have to hang out in the underground city, but I won't have a place to stay even in the provincial capital.
"My friend said so, why are you still here?"
Uncle Li's tone was calm, but it was like a thunder exploding in Tong Kun's ears. Tong Kun stood there blankly, it was over, it was over.
But he didn't want to give up, and finally set his sights on Li Fei, his only hope.
"Little friend, I beg you, let me carve it for you."
As he said that, he bent his knees and kneeled down to Li Fei.
Li Fei held Tong Kun's arms with both hands and prevented him from kneeling down.
Seeing that Tong Kun is no longer aloof, but instead looks helpless like an old man, it seems that Tong Kun has learned a lesson.
"Okay, I'll let you carve it."
This Uncle Li is really not simple. With just one sentence, Tong Kun was so frightened that he knelt down and apologized.
When Tong Kun heard that Li Fei agreed to carve it, he was overjoyed and bowed to Li Fei repeatedly to thank him: "Thank you, thank you."
"In that case, let's do it. If this Tong Kun can't do it, I'll find another sculptor for you." Uncle Li said calmly.
Li Fei smiled and glanced at Tong Kun: "I believe Master Tong will be fine."
"Yes, yes, I will definitely carve a pendant that satisfies the little friend."
Tong Kun quickly bowed and promised.
"By the way, why didn't Xiaowei come with you?" Uncle Li asked with a frown.
Li Fei sighed; "She was taken back by her family, and I couldn't contact her for many days."
"That's it."
A look of disappointment flashed in Uncle Li's eyes, and then he said: "Okay, then you can stay here. I have something to do. If you encounter any problems, just call me."
Then he took out his business card from his wallet and handed it to Li Fei.
"OK."
Li Fei took the business card and nodded with a smile.
Tong Kun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This young man must have a close relationship with Mr. Li, otherwise Mr. Li would not give people his business card easily.
Fortunately, he saw Mr. Li talking to Li Fei and rushed over to apologize to Li Fei, otherwise he would be dead.
Looking at Mr. Li's leaving figure, Tong Kun looked at Li Fei with great respect: "My friend, you can wander around in the dungeon. I can finish the carving in three hours. If you get it, come and get the pendant..."
"Your assistant won't stop it this time, right?" Li Fei made a joke.
"No, no, no, it won't happen anymore." Tong Kun looked serious and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Okay, let me go for a walk."
Li Fei threw the top-quality jadeite in his arms to Tong Kun and went to the third floor of the dungeon.
After shopping for more than two hours, he still didn't find anything he was satisfied with. He thought he might as well go back to Tong Kun's shop and see if Tong Kun had finished carving the pendant.
Before he reached the 206 store, he saw Assistant Liu holding a book, rushing towards him angrily and throwing the book hard at him.
"Asshole, you asked me to pay 200,000 yuan. Look for yourself. There are no words at the back of this ancient book."
Li Fei raised his hand, grabbed the ancient book that was thrown at him, and shrugged his shoulders: "Is this strange to me? It's you who went to buy books from that old Taoist priest again. What does it have to do with me?"
He felt that this Assistant Liu was inexplicable, why did he rely on him?
"You bastard..."
Assistant Liu's face turned red: "Then why don't you buy that book?"
"Of course I have noticed something is wrong with me." Li Fei told the truth.
"Since you know there is something wrong with the old man, why didn't you tell me?" Assistant Liu glared at Li Fei and roared with gritted teeth.
"I didn't know you were going to find the old Taoist. Besides, why should I tell you that I have nothing to do?"
Facing Assistant Liu's aggressiveness, Li Fei sneered.
Assistant Liu's hands were shaking with anger. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.
"Don't you want Master Tong to carve a pendant for you? As long as you give me two hundred thousand, I will let Master Tong help you."
The veteran had already escaped, and he didn't want to suffer a loss, so he came up with Li Fei's idea.
"No need, I've asked Tong Kun to carve it for me."
Assistant Liu was stunned. In order to vent his anger, Master Tong said that he would not help this person, so why did he help him carve it again? This young man must have used some trick.
But since he was Master Tong's assistant, he was still confident that Tong Kun would not help him carve.
"Really? Do you believe that I asked the master not to finish the carving for you?"
