Chapter 49



“Yo, Miss Su, Little Brother Su, what a coincidence.”

On the street ahead, Manager Sun alighted from the carriage leisurely and walked towards the two of them with a smile.

He looked at the siblings, who were wearing linen cotton clothes and were empty-handed in the cold wind, and the smile in his eyes deepened. “Are you guys here to buy things too? You don’t seem to have bought anything. Is it almost the new year and the shops are out of stock?”

“What’s it to you?” Su Ergou asked angrily.

Manager Sun smiled and said, “Brother Su, don’t be so angry. We’re all businessmen. Harmony brings wealth!”

Su Ergou said unhappily, “Who wants to make money with you?”

Manager Sun looked at Su Xiaoxiao.

Compared to her exasperated brother, this little fat village girl was much calmer. She was not surprised to see him, as if she had expected him to appear here at any time.

“Miss Su, what do you want to buy? If you can’t buy it, tell me! I’m happy to help you!”

Manager Sun said righteously.

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “Aren’t you a little too shameless?”

“Ah! It’s you! It’s you! You didn’t let the shop sell flour to us!” Su Ergou finally reacted.

Manager Sun’s smile faded a little, but he did not deny it.

Originally, only an evenly matched opponent was worth probing carefully. There was no need to be careful when dealing with two ants.

In the past, he cherished Jin Ji’s reputation. In addition, the little fat village girl was in the limelight for saving his customer, so he wanted to buy her formula.

Unexpectedly, she mercilessly rejected him.

Manager Sun could tell that although Su Ergou was a man, the real decision-maker was this little fat village girl.

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao and smiled meaningfully. “Some people don’t know how to appreciate favors and refused an easy way out. Miss Su, what do you think?”

Su Xiaoxiao said bluntly, “Tell me, what do you want?”

Manager Sun placed his hands behind his back and said proudly, “Jin Ji has been in Xinghua Town for 21 years and have lost countless peers. Business these days is easy to do but also difficult to sustain. It depends on who does it and how. For example, Miss Su, you have skills. Unfortunately, you’re just a village girl. Anyone on the streets can easily crush you. Do you believe that with a word from me, no one will dare to sell flour to you within a hundred miles! A clever woman can’t cook without rice. Without flour, what can you make pancakes with?”

Su Ergou said angrily, “Hey! You’re too vicious! What’s wrong with us selling our pancakes? You still have so many customers! Your business is still so good! I don’t see you earning less!”

That was right and wrong.

Yes, Su Xiaoxiao’s production was limited, and Jin Ji’s sales were indeed not affected much in the short term.

What he had not realized was that Jin Ji’s reputation was falling. After eating the snacks sold by Su Xiaoxiao, the customers would feel that Jin Ji wasn’t worth this price.

“You did so much just for the formula.” Su Xiaoxiao hit the nail on the head.

Manager Sun’s thoughts were exposed and he felt embarrassed for a moment. “Sigh, how can I answer that? I want to form a good relationship with Miss Su, but Miss Su has never given me a chance. Now that the boss has heard some news, I can’t explain it to him.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m not interested in Jin Ji’s internal matters. If you’re only after the formula... ”

Su Xiaoxiao paused.

Manager Sun revealed a smile that gradually succeeded.

“Then I might have to disappoint you.”

Manager Sun suspected that he had heard wrongly.

What did the girl say? Was she going to disappoint him?

Now that things had come to this, was she still not going to compromise?

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao suspiciously. “You mean... ”

Su Ergou shouted, “My sister means that we won’t sell the formula!”

Manager Sun shook his head. “Girl, you’re too young. I’m afraid you haven’t experienced the consequences of refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit. Don’t think that just because I’ve been polite to you time and time again, you really think that I don’t have a temper!”

Su Xiaoxiao had already experienced Manager Sun’s temper the first time she saved the child.

He was not a good person. He only had business in his eyes and would do anything to achieve his goal.

He had contributed greatly to Jin Ji’s business over the years. He had the talent but he lacked humanity.

Su Ergou took a few steps forward and stood in front of Su Xiaoxiao. He said to Manager Sun, “Who are you scaring? If you continue to be fierce to my sister, I’ll beat you up!”

“Little brother Su... ”

“Who are you calling Little Brother? Is Little Brother something you can call? My sister said that it’s not for sale! Even if you ask a hundred times, it’s still not for sale!”

Manager Sun’s smile turned cold again. “Miss Su, are you sure you want to go against Jin Ji?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “So in Manager Sun’s eyes, I, a small village girl, am actually qualified to go against the dignified Jin Ji. Manager Sun, are you praising me or lowering your status?”

Manager Sun’s expression froze. She was just a peddler from the countryside. Logically speaking, she would not catch Jin Ji’s eye. How could a ferocious tiger care about an ant on the ground?

But he did care. Not only did he care, but it was like a fishbone in his throat.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him. “You said it yourself just now. Harmony makes money, but I just didn’t agree to sell the formula to you, and you’re already making things difficult for us. Could it be that to Jin Ji, business isn’t about mutual consent, but force?”

Manager Sun’s expression turned even uglier.

This girl was so sharp-tongued that he could not win against her.

However, he was not here to reason with her today!

Manager Sun said in a low voice, “Girl, I’ll ask you one last time. Are you selling the formula or not?”

Su Xiaoxiao said neither servile nor overbearing, “No. Even if you ask me a hundred times, I still won’t sell.”

Manager Sun’s eyes turned cold. “It seems that you plan to walk to your end!”

Su Ergou’s years of fighting made him sense that something was wrong.

“What do you want?” he shouted.

Manager Sun snorted coldly and made a gesture. Seven to eight burly men immediately rushed out of the alley blocked by the carriage. All of them were fierce and looked like they wanted to beat someone into the mud.

“Sun, do you want to fight?”

He knew this!

Su Ergou rolled up his sleeves. “Sister! Let me do it! I haven’t fought in a long time. My hands are itching!”

Su Ergou turned into a little bully of the Su family in a second.

There were many enemies, and it was difficult for Su Ergou to take advantage of them. Therefore, Su Ergou planned to capture Sun first.

However, the other party seemed to have expected him to do this and pounced at him.
