Chapter 381 - 380 Poor Little Boy
Old Zhang Fifth made his start in Beiguan Town with underground boxing matches, and the people of Beiguan Town became wealthy because of these boxing matches as well.
For Beiguan Town, these underground boxing matches represented the most crucial period of time.
During this period, it was a golden opportunity for the people of Beiguan Town to make money, and it was also when Fifth Brother’s income was the highest.
Therefore, during this period, Fifth Brother had his prohibitions. Unless it was something particularly serious, he strictly forbade the people of Beiguan Town from getting into disputes with those who came to participate in the boxing matches.
No matter how much the outsiders fought among themselves, the locals absolutely could not have conflicts with them. After all, this involved the order of Beiguan Town under Fifth Brother, as well as Fifth Brother’s own reputation issues.
Now that Su Yang brought up Fifth Brother, it immediately alarmed everyone around.
They remembered an incident where Fifth Brother punished a local. That local tried to rip off a customer by charging over three thousand for a meal without first discussing the price. The matter was taken directly to Old Zhang.
In this regard, Fifth Brother was very ruthless. Actually, he was quite tolerant of the locals. During the May Dragon Head Meeting, you were allowed to overcharge customers, but you had to agree on the price beforehand. As long as the price was set, even if you charged three hundred thousand or five hundred thousand for a meal, Fifth Brother wouldn’t intervene. However, if you didn’t set a price and charged more than half above the market rate, Fifth Brother would severely punish you.
That local’s whole family was eventually driven out of Beiguan Town by Fifth Brother. Along with them, some of their relatives lost a whole year’s dividends, leading to their becoming social pariahs, pointed at by thousands.
