Although he was speechless at Zhong Chao's actions, Shi Qiang's family knew about his family affairs and had never targeted Oriole, so he was just speechless.
But the other people in the room didn't think so. When they saw Zhong Chao talking to Huang Oriole, their faces darkened.
Oriole from the Lishang Rouge Shop didn’t expect Zhong Chao to be so ‘perseverant’. However, her family situation and upbringing prevented her from scorning her. Instead, she said calmly: “You can buy it for a long time, fifteen taels a bottle.”
“So expensive!”
These words made Oriole a little unbearable.
"This is the lowest price. The silver fish lives deep in the lake bottom and swims very fast, so it is difficult to catch. The cost price of each silver fish is around 10 taels. The ointment made with it will naturally be very expensive.
high."
Listening to Oriole's explanation of why the silver fish ointment is expensive, Zhong Chao sighed at first, but soon his eyes lit up.
"Wait a minute, it's ten taels a piece! If I catch a fish, can I sell it to you?"
Zhong Chao was very short of money, and when he heard that the lowest price for fish was 10 taels, he became very excited.
Especially when I think about the fact that I will soon learn to swim like a fish in the water, and catch fish with this technique, I will definitely be a good fisherman.
"Moreover, I can not only sell silvery fish, but there are also many fish meals on the price list of Xi's Restaurant. The price of these foods can easily reach tens of taels of silver. In addition to the cooking skills and brand premium, the fish themselves must not be expensive.
Cheap."
"You have to practice fish-dragon swimming, and you have to practice it to a high and deep level. With this technique, I can make money by fishing!"
After finding an idea to make money, Zhong Chao's excitement was a little hard to contain.
However, his excited expression made everyone present misunderstood.
Among them, Shi Qiang looked at Zhong Chaoru and said: "First the silver fish ointment, then the silver fish, and then I will ask about the silver fish because I don't know about it... I have become familiar with it after going back and forth... I still
I thought you were stupid, but I didn’t expect that it was me who was stupid!”
Shi Qiang was lamenting Zhong Chao's method of "picking up girls". Since he was unable to pursue it, he just sighed and felt that he had learned a skill.
But the other people who had thoughts about Oriole looked even more ugly when they saw Zhong Chao stalking him so hard.
Especially Qi Weiye, he regarded the oriole as his forbidden pet. The words of Zhong Chao, the "mud-legged man", made him feel like his gorgeous clothes were stained with mud, and he was not prepared to endure it anymore.
With a cold snort, he turned his eyes and gave the person next to him a wink.
The man got the order and immediately stood up.
"Ahem, everyone, it's time for us to discuss cooperation."
This was business. After hearing this, Zhong Chao also gave up the idea of selling fish and looked up.
"The martial arts hall is in crisis. The senior brothers who have enjoyed the most resources do not want to repay, but only strive for power and profit. Only we can fight... With the gift of the master of the hall, we have some power, but..."
The man who stood up said a lot of words. To summarize, Zhong Chao and the others had gained power, but the senior brothers who had suffered losses would not give up. In order to protect what they had in their hands, they had to unite and establish an offensive and defensive alliance.
Up to here, it's pretty normal.
Then, the man changed the topic and said that those senior brothers were very strong and it would be difficult to resist them. He asked those present to have the money and strength to contribute and unite to resist.
In response to this statement, the businessmen who were invited were very discerning and generously donated their money.
Even the oriole in the inner city also paid some money.
"Let's talk about distribution next."
Seeing the collected money, Zhong Chao felt a little enthusiastic.
However, just when he was thinking this, he found that the senior brother on the field did not take the next step, but looked at him.
Such a pause also caused some silence in the venue.
"???"
At first, he didn't understand why Zhong Chao was being watched, but based on the situation at the scene, he soon understood something.
Because of this, he laughed:
"Haha, it seems that you invited me here not to cooperate, but to fight against the autumn wind."
"Hmph, you are worthy of cooperation. Do you think a warrior can help us?"
The speaker's tone was harsh and his words were unpleasant - he also had a crush on Oriole.
After he said that, although the other people did not speak, their eyes revealed this meaning, which made Zhong Chao shrug.
"Based on common rationality, I, a warrior, am indeed not worthy of sitting with you."
As soon as he said this, everyone present thought that Zhong Chao had given in, and the contempt in their eyes became even greater.
"Now that you understand, that's good. If you turn over 70%...90% of your income, we will protect you...whatever you do."
Seeing that Zhong Chao gave in easily, the man looked down upon him and immediately increased the amount to 90%. However, before he finished speaking, he found Zhong Chao leaving the table and walking out the door.
This scene also made him ask questions involuntarily.
However, Zhong Chao, who knew these people's plans, had no intention of talking to them anymore.
Because of this, he walked straight to the door without even bothering to say anything more.
Seeing this, Qi Weiye's face also darkened. However, his status as the disciple of Zhong Chao's master and the presence of Oriole made him be elegant and persuade him with words:
"Junior Brother Zhong, I suggest you stay and help each other with us. Although you will lose some things, you can still keep a lot. You can keep everything by yourself..."
In the middle of his words, he couldn't help but pause. Faced with his "sincere" words, Zhong Chao just gave it to him without even the slightest pause.
What made his face even more gloomy was that after Zhong Chao left, Shi Qiang hesitated and left.
Two people left in a row, making the atmosphere a little dull.
But soon, Qi Weiye started laughing.
"Haha, it seems that Junior Brother Zhong is very confident and feels that one person can defeat Senior Brother Huang and the others."
"I don't know how high the sky is, that person will regret today's decision."
"And Shi Qiang, he is short-sighted and should not have invited him in the first place."
Under Qi Weiye's calmness, the atmosphere in the restaurant's box became lively again.
However, in this bustle, some people were a little surprised, and Oriole was one of them.
"Senior Brother Qi, I heard that Zhong Chao is the master's disciple. Although it is by name, is it really okay to offend him like this?"
It was okay if I didn't say this. Once I said it, several people in the room became angry.
"Hmph, Fu's registered disciple, this title should belong to us."
"That mud-legged guy is just a thief, and he took advantage of being the first one on the scene!"
"So what if I offend you? His practice is the Pure Yang Golden Bell Shield. No one can master this eunuch technique!"
Because of their displeasure, several people in the room tried their best to belittle Zhong Chao.
From these words, Oriole also understood the reason why Qi Weiye and others were so hostile to Zhong Chao.
One is that they feel that Zhong Chao has stolen their things - in these people's eyes, the betrayed gym owner will definitely accept disciples, and will accept them from those who are loyal to the martial arts gym.
Zhong Chao, who was the first to come on stage, became a registered disciple because he stole their things.
Another reason is the pure Yang gold bell.
These people all know the shortcomings of the Pure Yang Golden Bell Shield and know that few people can succeed in cultivation, so they are not afraid of offending Zhong Chao at all.
With no future and a lot of gold in his hands, Zhong Chao's current situation seems to them like a child holding gold in the busy market, which will naturally attract people's greedy and prying eyes.
