Chapter 742: Price Hike upon Seating (4)_1
For Ruan Jiandang now, it wasn’t a difficult task after all, since he could receive a decent dividend from the restaurant every year.
Thinking this one thousand yuan could permanently stop Liao Zhaoji’s harassment, he couldn’t wait to nod in agreement, not even noticing Ruan Jianguo signaling to him from the side.
To Ruan Jiandang, a thousand yuan wasn’t much, but to the now impoverished Liao Zhaoji, it was an astronomical figure. Even though the economy had soared in recent years and everyone’s living standards had risen considerably, the man she married was incompetent, rarely bringing home a significant amount of money throughout the year.
So she thought the thousand yuan was a lot and was surprised that Ruan Jiandang agreed without a second thought. Realizing she had asked too little, she immediately changed her tone, "No, I misspoke, it’s five... it’s ten thousand!"
"Gasp." Everyone in the police station drew in a breath of cold air at her outrageous demand.
Ten thousand!
It’s a wonder she could even say it out loud.
Ruan Jiandang’s face changed immediately as he yelled, "Are you crazy? Where am I supposed to get ten thousand from?"
Liao Zhaoji, having nothing to lose anymore, pointed at Ruan Jianguo next to him, "You might not have it, but doesn’t your big brother? If he doesn’t, wouldn’t his restaurant have it?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Jiandang’s mind went blank, a rush of blood spreading from his chest to his head, and in the next second, he grabbed a stool nearby. Before anyone could react, he seized Liao Zhaoji by the shoulder and smashed it down on her head.
No one expected him to do that, even Ruan Jianguo standing beside him didn’t have time to react. When he did, he immediately grabbed the stool from Jiandang’s hand and shoved him backward.
