Chapter 40 - 30: The Best Yang Residence
Xu Qing and Zhao Zhonghe have never gotten along; the moment they spotted each other, sparks flew like fire landing in a pile of cotton, ready to ignite.
Over there, Huang Sanye was eager for a spectacle and blocked the broker's assistant who wanted to intervene, hoping the two would start fighting soon. If they got hurt, they could walk east a few steps to the medical shop opened by their broker.
Such a great opportunity to watch for free while bringing profit to the broker—he wished it could happen several times a day.
Inside the broker's shop, Li Siye heard the commotion and peeked out to see the two quarrel vehemently, quickly stepping out to mediate.
"Chief Zhao, Younger Brother Xu, we are all here to make a living. What can't be discussed openly? Please, don't harm our peace."
"Younger Brother Xu, quickly apologize to Chief Zhao!" Li Siye gestured, implying that an apology would smooth things over.
Unable to withstand Li Siye's persuasion, Xu Qing reluctantly clasped his hands, heavily nasal, "It's my fault. Though Chief Zhao has tarnished good people, I shouldn't have spoken nonsense. From now on, I'll give an eighty percent discount when Chief Zhao comes to my shop..."
Li Siye initially felt grateful but nearly fainted upon hearing the last sentence.
This Shopkeeper Xu, why can't he keep his mouth shut? Who cares about the discount at your shop?
Chief Zhao's face visibly flushed red.
"You brat! Don't let me catch you later, or if you ever get into trouble and end up at the Patrol Office, I'll give you a fifty percent discount!"
