Uncle Sun obviously knew the other party and did not dare to offend him. He whispered softly: "Brothers, don't I need to pay management fees for my stall here?"
"I know this. Your stall here is a poverty-stricken stall, and you really don't have to pay." The leader, a young man with yellow hair, said.
"Since you know this, why do you still charge management fees from me?" Uncle Sun asked puzzledly.
The yellow-haired young man smiled slightly and said: "I forgot to tell you just now that you don't have to pay the management fee, but the protection fee costs money! If you pay the protection fee, it is equivalent to paying the management fee."
"What, I'm old and you still ask me for protection money?" Uncle Sun got angry, then thought of something, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, how much do you want."
"Three hundred yuan, give us and leave." The yellow-haired young man snorted coldly.
"With so much money, why don't you go and rob?" Uncle Sun said angrily.
"Is that a lot of money?" The yellow-haired young man sneered, "Three hundred yuan a month, which is only ten yuan a day. That's what the stalls nearby offer."
"I can't make ten yuan a day, how can I give you any money?" Uncle Sun really didn't have much money in his hand, not even three hundred yuan, not even one hundred yuan.
"Hmph! That's your business. Why can't you make so much money when the nearby stalls make so much money?" The yellow-haired young man said, "Old guy, I advise you to hand over the money to us quickly. This is the best treatment for you.
I'm fine. You can continue to set up a stall, and we can also go to other places to collect protection fees. I don't have time to waste here."
"I, what if I don't hand it over?" Uncle Sun stood up, straightened his back, and his attitude became forceful.
"It doesn't matter if you don't pay, we can only smash your stall." The yellow-haired young man waved his hand and said loudly, "You guys, you have stepped on all these little cabbages."
Just as the younger brothers were about to take action, Zhang Qianqian stepped forward and said, "Wait a moment."
Huang Mao was startled, obviously not expecting anyone to dare to stop them, and coldly snorted: "Who are you?"
"Don't ask me who I am. If you want to destroy the stall here, I don't agree." Zhang Qianqian is not afraid of the other party. She knows Li Yi's powerful strength very well. Not to mention dealing with just a gangster, even if the regular police come,
Can be put down easily.
"Little girl, I advise you not to mind your own business. Just look at them. They are much smarter than you." The yellow-haired young man said and glanced at the people around him.
This place is located in the corner of the vegetable market. There are very few people buying vegetables nearby, and only about a dozen people are watching.
The people watching had no intention of taking action. They all shook their heads and sighed, seeming to think that Zhang Qianqian should not meddle in such nosy matters.
The world has become indifferent. Perhaps due to the influence of the current society, many people have formed an idea that matters that have nothing to do with themselves are ignored.
"They are them. I will take care of them when I see them. You go away! You are not allowed to come here to receive protection money in the future." Zhang Qianqian had a tough attitude, and her tone seemed to have an unusual background.
The yellow-haired young man frowned. He felt a little unsure. He glanced at Li Yi next to Zhang Qianqian and saw that he was not old and did not look like a person from the Tao. But if the other person was not a person from the Tao, why did this girl have such a big body?
Tone, the yellow-haired young man thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Which path are you from?"
"I'm not a Taoist." Zhang Qianqian replied.
The yellow-haired young man was even more puzzled and said: "Is your father very rich?"
"My dad lives in a slum, do you think he is rich?" Zhang Qianqian sneered.
"So, your father is an official?" The yellow-haired young man asked, "Are you a second-generation official?"
"No." Zhang Qianqian said, "Don't ask these questions. No one in my family is an official. If I am a second-generation official, can my family live in a slum?"
At this time, a stunned young man behind Huang Mao whispered: "Brother, she is Zhang Potjiao's daughter, and she used to sell vegetables in this area."
Hearing this, Huang Mao felt relieved and snorted coldly: "Who did I think you were? It turns out that you are Zhang Laizi's daughter. I have long heard that his daughter is pretty and has good grades. It seems that
The rumors are all true." As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, and the three thumb-long scars were extremely eye-catching.
"Little girl, stop meddling in other people's business and get out of here!"
"I think you are looking for death. You dare not care about our elder brother's reality. You must be impatient with life!"
"..."
Just when the younger brothers were about to curse a few words, the yellow-haired young man raised his hand and snorted coldly: "How do I usually educate you? Don't make any noise if you can do it..."
"Yes, the elder brother taught me a lesson." the younger brothers said quickly.
The yellow-haired young man glanced at the scar on his arm and snorted coldly: "Have you seen this scar? I have been in this generation since I was a child. I don't know how many people I have beaten. These scars are witnesses of history. Look at your age.
I'm still young, so I won't do anything. I've wasted so much time on us, so I'll pay you some money!"
"I have no money, and I won't give you any money." Zhang Qianqian snorted coldly.
"Seeing that you are well-dressed, you actually told me that you have no money?" the yellow-haired young man said sarcastically, "I have heard that the slums in your area have just been demolished, and every family has lost a lot of money, especially your elders.
The Zhang family is said to have lost more than one million yuan. Now you are a nouveau riche. If you tell us that we have no money, do you believe me?"
"You guys have been kicked in the head! You actually lied to our elder brother. Do you know the consequences?" a younger brother shouted.
The yellow-haired young man was very satisfied with his younger brother's shouting. He glanced at Zhang Qianqian and continued: "I'll ask you one last time, will you give me money?"
Just when Zhang Qianqian was about to answer, Li Yi stepped forward and said, "How much do you want?"
"Young man, don't give them money. I'll see what they can do to us." Uncle Sun walked up to Li Yi and stood in front of him.
Li Yi motioned to Zhang Qianqian to pull him aside. Zhang Qianqian also knew that Li Yi had his reasons for doing this, and whispered: "Uncle Sun, don't worry! They don't dare to mess around."
The yellow-haired young man smiled and said: "Boy, it's better for you to know the current affairs. In fact, the money we need is not much, just five thousand will be enough."
"Five thousand!!!"
The crowd onlookers breathed a sigh of relief. For an ordinary family, five thousand yuan is a lot of money.
Li Yi looked solemn, and his deep eyes didn't know what he was thinking. He just heard him ask: "Are you sure you want five thousand?"
"That's right, it's five thousand. For less than a dime, you won't be able to leave here safely." The yellow-haired young man said harshly.
Li Yi didn't waste any time. He took out five thousand yuan from his storage bag and handed it to the other party: "There are five thousand yuan here. I don't know if you have the ability to leave here."
"Hey! You think I'm scared. No one in this area dares to talk to me like this." The yellow-haired young man didn't take Li Yi seriously at all. He walked up to him in a few steps and was about to get it.
Five thousand dollars.
However, the moment he took the money, Li Yi suddenly stood up. He felt a pain in his lower abdomen, and then his body flew up.
This foot movement was powerful and heavy. Under the huge force, the yellow-haired young man fell heavily to the ground.
After landing, he felt a sweet sensation in his throat. Before the yellow-haired young man could speak, he spit out a mouthful of blood.
"You, you dare to hit me?" Huang Mao said in surprise.
Everyone around was stunned, and the younger brothers were dumbfounded. They obviously didn't expect that Li Yi would dare to take action, and he kicked Huang Mao away with one kick.
Li Yi threw away the five thousand yuan, and a thick wad of money was scattered on the ground. No one dared to pick it up, "These five thousand yuan will be used as medical expenses. If you are smart, don't come here to collect protection fees in the future..."
…”
What do people on the road fear most? That is losing face. The same is true for Huang Mao and others. If they are driven away like this, will they continue to hang around in this area in the future?
"Boss, how are you?" Several younger brothers helped Huang Mao up, making eye contact as if asking him what he should do.
The yellow-haired young man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, snorted coldly, and shouted: "Boy, I didn't expect you to be so courageous. Do you know who is behind us?"
"Who?" Li Yi also wanted to know who instigated them to collect protection fees here.
I thought that the underground forces in ** City were under control, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated the opponent's strength and dared to mess around under his nose.
"The person behind me will scare you to death if you tell me. His father is the current secretary of the municipal party committee." Huang Mao shouted arrogantly, thinking that the other party would turn around and run away after saying this.
As the saying goes, the people will not fight with the officials, this is the truth.
However, the development of things was completely different from what the yellow-haired young man imagined. Li Yi frowned and asked in a low voice: "Who is the municipal party committee secretary?"
Li Yi rarely watches the news and doesn't care about national affairs. Of course he doesn't know who the municipal party committee secretary is.
However, Li Yi didn't know that some of the people buying vegetables around him knew about it. Someone asked: "Are you from the Wang Municipal Party Committee? Is the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee aware of the law and breaking the law?"
"What does it mean to know the law and break the law? We are just here to collect management fees." The yellow-haired young man said coldly, "Tell me where the wet market does not charge management fees."
"Your management fees are too high." A stall owner not far away said boldly.
"Lao Li, don't you want to do business here anymore?" The yellow-haired young man glared at the other party and said coldly, "The higher-ups have the final say on how much the management fees are. If you are not convinced, you can go to the higher-ups..."
Li Yi suddenly thought of a person. Since the other person's surname was Wang, the answer was ready to come out. He asked again: "Isn't Wang Meng's father appointed or dismissed?"
"Don't ask me, I don't know either. I heard that the Wang family is very powerful and they may have been promoted again!" Zhang Qianqian guessed that she knew very little about these things.
Seeing everyone's silence, the yellow-haired young man thought that Li Yi was afraid of him, and said: "Boy, if you are smarter and pay some more money, this matter will be over. Otherwise, we will arrest you for obstructing official business. You
You know what our boss is capable of. If you go in, you will never come out again."
"Let your boss call you Wang Meng!" Li Yi squinted his eyes. He didn't expect that Wang Meng would become more and more courageous. He was simply breaking the law knowingly.
The yellow-haired young man was stunned and said: "Do you think we are the boss?"
"Call him and ask him, have you forgotten what happened last time?" Li Yi didn't want to take the initiative to trouble Wang Meng, but he didn't expect that this guy was not afraid of death and came to his door again and again.
The yellow-haired young man had no idea what the other party was talking about, but he could tell that the two of them knew each other. He hesitated before dialing the number.
At this time, Wang Meng was contacting buyers to sell aphrodisiac pills. Because the price was too high, many noodlers couldn't accept it, which was a headache.
Hearing the cell phone ringing, Wang Meng answered the call and said, "Huang Mao, didn't I tell you not to call me unless there is something important?"
"Boss, we were collecting protection fees at the vegetable market and met two troublemakers." Huang Mao said truthfully.
"Just drive them away. Do you still need to report this to me?" Wang Meng was about to hang up the phone when something suddenly occurred to him and he asked quickly, "What kind of people are those two?"
"One man and one woman." Huang Mao said.
Wang Meng's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition. His voice trembled slightly and he said, "Then, is there a woman among those two people? Is that woman particularly beautiful?"
"Boss, you are truly a genius. Little brother, I admire you more and more."
