However, she did not refuse. She asked him to carry the watermelon to her electronic scale and weighed it for him. A watermelon weighed twelve pounds and cost more than thirty yuan.
The old man paid the bill readily, and several customers gathered around him. Li Fei simply borrowed the scale.
The landlady readily lent it to him without saying a word.
Li Fei's business couldn't stop as soon as it opened. People are like this and have a herd mentality. As long as there are people surrounding the stall, there will always be someone who thinks there is an advantage here.
Li Fei's watermelons were sold one after another. His watermelons looked really good. They were not only big in size, but also thin in skin and dark in color. In addition, the watermelon he smashed just now was placed next to it, which was slightly more attractive.
Anyone with experience can tell at a glance that watermelon is absolutely delicious.
Moreover, his watermelon also has a peculiar fragrance that attracts people unconsciously.
His business immediately boomed. The cart of watermelon weighed more than 2,000 kilograms. He quickly sold half of it, leaving him with more than 3,000 yuan.
Looking at this thick stack of bills, there were some odd ones and some round ones, he felt so happy. He kept thinking that his family's hardships had finally come to an end. As long as he made more trips, he would be able to sell tens of thousands of yuan a day.
None. In ten days and a half, I will have the capital to rent a storefront in the county and open a small shop.
What kind of business would it be to open a shop? He closed his eyes and looked up at the sky, with beautiful thoughts in his heart.
"Why are you so dazed, young man, hurry up and weigh me!" A lady next to him said loudly, and he immediately reacted, hugging the watermelon with a smile, and started to weigh him.
At this moment, a loud shout came from the distance: "Who asked you to set up a stall here?"
The sound was so loud that it startled everyone. Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look at the place where the sound came from.
Not far away, they saw several tall and thick men walking towards them in a swaggering manner.
Seeing their menacing appearance, several customers who were selecting watermelons quickly moved aside for fear of being accidentally injured by them.
The proprietress of the fresh food store opposite frowned tightly and looked at Li Fei worriedly.
Li Fei took a breath and looked at them coldly.
Several big men walked up to him. The leader was a bald man. He picked up a watermelon and punched it. The watermelon broke into several pieces.
He grabbed a piece of watermelon and ate it in big mouthfuls. He was about to take a bite and threw it on the ground, giving Li Fei a slap in the face. But suddenly he realized that the watermelon was so delicious that he couldn't bear to leave it and kept eating it.
Start eating.
The few boys following him were also stunned for a moment. Perhaps they were attracted by the aroma of watermelon, so they also grabbed the remaining watermelon and ate it in big gulps.
The style of the painting suddenly changed. People around them originally thought that the group was going to get angry and reprimand Li Fei, but they didn't expect it to become so quiet all of a sudden.
Li Fei frowned and said coldly: "This watermelon weighs about ten pounds, and I'll charge you thirty yuan!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and looked at the bald head.
The bald man finished eating the watermelon and wiped his mouth. He looked at him with a mocking look, and then sneered: "Boy, did you not understand the situation?"
Several of his younger brothers also threw the watermelon rind they had just eaten on the ground. One of them laughed and said: "Brother Dog, this guy doesn't seem to know you?"
"Oh, you are the first to dare to ask us for money. You are so brave!"
Li Fei said coldly: "No matter who eats my watermelon, they have to pay!"
Brother Gou glared and said viciously: "Who asked you to set up a stall here? Have you paid the management fee? Get the money quickly, don't be so fucking ignorant!"
As he spoke, he pointed to his chest. Li Fei took a quick look and saw a plastic sign hanging on his chest, which indicated that he was the manager of the vegetable market.
Li Fei smiled lightly: "I didn't enter the vegetable market, and I didn't occupy the road for business. You don't have the power to enforce the law, so why should you charge me?"
"Why should I charge you a fee? You are so stubborn, so let me teach you why!"
As Brother Gou spoke, he raised his fist and punched Li Fei in the face.
It came just in time, and Li Fei punched him without dodging.
There was a loud bang, and the two fists collided. Li Fei didn't move at all. The next moment, Brother Gou let out a scream, retracted his arm, covered his fist with one hand, and his face was extremely painful.
He clearly heard the sound of his own bones breaking just now, and the heart-wrenching pain made him scream inwardly.
It's over, it's over, I'm afraid this fist is useless, and it won't recover unless I rest for a few months.
I don’t know how much less management fees will be charged after the delay of these few months.
He was angry and shouted at the younger brother behind him: "Why the hell are you still standing there? Let's destroy this kid together!"
The people watching around him exclaimed and moved away one after another.
The boys shouted and rushed towards Li Fei. Li Fei snorted, kicked him in the chest, and kicked forward hard. The man immediately flew backwards and fell to the ground with a plop, unconscious.
Another fist flew toward his left cheek. Li Fei stretched out his hand to block it, then turned his hips violently, and whipped out his entire right leg like a whip, knocking the man unconscious to the ground.
Then he suddenly spun around and kicked the other boy in the chest with a backspin kick. He flew four or five meters away and fell to the ground. He couldn't get up for a long time.
In an instant, there was the last one standing on the ground.
He was dumbfounded and looked around in panic. Li Fei walked towards him coldly.
He backed away repeatedly, turned around suddenly, and ran away with his tail between his legs like a dog.
Li Fei glanced around coldly, and those people struggled to get up and fled away quickly.
Li Fei patted the dust on his palms and did not chase them. He shouted coldly at their backs: "I will still set up a stall here tomorrow. I will come back to collect protection fees when I have the guts!"
The group of people ran far away and then slowly stopped. Brother Gou turned around and shouted viciously at Li Fei again: "You little bastard, don't leave, just wait!"
Li Fei turned around fiercely to face him and took a step forward. The guy was immediately frightened, turned around and ran away quickly.
This caused everyone around to burst into laughter. After these people walked away, Li Fei said cheerfully to the surrounding onlookers: "Sorry, everyone, it was a small incident. It's okay now. Let's continue to buy watermelons!"
After saying that, he laughed and shouted loudly, as if nothing had happened just now.
