Chapter 322 The Bet in Golden Man Alley
Chapter 322 The Bet in Golden Man Alley
"As a member of the Cloud Cavalry, how can I sit idly by and watch a conflict break out at the docks?"
"Also, my name isn't Hey, nor is it Wild Girl, my name is Su Chang!"
The arguing in the distance caught the attention of the train crew.
"It sounds like there's a commotion over there..." March 7th said with some concern.
"And, I think I also heard someone mention the company?" Xing thought back carefully.
"Didn't Fu Xuan Tai Bu say that the company sent a specialist to Jinren Alley?"
"Could it be that a company specialist had a conflict with the Cloud Cavalry?" Walter Yang wondered.
The group exchanged glances and nodded.
This is indeed something the company is capable of doing.
Eve frowned slightly. "Even if the rules are set, there will always be people who break them."
Such a large company has far too many mixed-up people.
"Should we go over and take a look?"
"This will also prevent anyone from using Eve's name to do bad things!" March 7th puffed out his chest.
Eve thought for a moment, then said, "Okay."
Just then, a small figure rushed over and grabbed Eve's leg.
"Mother!!"
"I've finally found you!" Bai Lu hugged Eve's fair thigh and looked at Eve with her big, blinking eyes.
“Little White Dew?” Eve recognized her immediately when she saw the dragon horns on White Dew’s head.
"Mom?" Xing immediately became alert.
"Dragon horns?" Himeko immediately noticed the dragon horns on Shiraku's head.
"Could it be...?"
“Yes, she should be a dragon girl from the Vidyadhara clan,” Walter Yang added from the side.
"W-w-w-...Eve, where did this come from?" March 7 asked Eve in confusion.
Starting with Belloberg, how many daughters has Eve had?
How come another one suddenly appeared?
"I collected it during dinner," Eve replied casually.
She bent down and gently stroked Bailu's head.
"What's wrong, Little White Dew?" Eve asked gently.
"Ahem, I'm a little hungry... I snuck out without bringing any money," Bai Lu said sheepishly.
She ran away without any money this time, but luckily she ran into her mother here.
Otherwise we'll go hungry again.
“Like this…” Eve pouted and thought for a moment.
She stood up and squinted at Himeko.
That's when you need your wallet.
Himeko felt a little uncomfortable at the sudden gaze, but she still smiled and met Eve's eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Eve stretched out her fair and delicate hand without hesitation, palm up, fingers slightly bent, as if waiting for something.
Upon seeing this, Himeko immediately understood Eve's intention. She couldn't help but smile helplessly, and then placed the wallet in Eve's hand.
"That's all, we don't have any more," Himeko said with a touch of indulgence.
"Okay, Himeko~." Eve smiled and put away her wallet.
"Hey, wait a minute! Eve, what will happen over there if you leave?" March 7th hurriedly called out to Eve, who was about to leave.
Eve turned around and said, "I'll leave it to you."
"If you encounter a difficult person, just say that this is the intention of an honorary director."
After saying that, Eve took Bailu's hand and left.
"Well... okay." March 7th thought it over.
Even if someone comes to cause trouble in Golden Man Alley, they can't possibly be as powerful as Eve.
After all, P48 is the most powerful person in the entire universe.
The farce at the dock continued, and it seemed to be getting louder and louder.
"Let's hurry up and leave, or a fight will break out."
March 7th was a little impatient.
The group immediately headed towards Jinren Alley.
Upon arrival, a large crowd gathered around.
The group immediately gathered around and saw the company specialist and the Yunqi Army arguing fiercely.
At this moment, a man who appeared to be a secretary of the chamber of commerce stepped forward.
"Young lady, let our Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce handle this matter."
Su Chang looked at the man with suspicion, "Are you... from the Chamber of Commerce?"
Scott put his hands on his hips and scoffed, "You guys handle this? That's hilarious!"
"Everyone watching here knows that the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce is poorly managed and incompetent. Now they're owing rent for the docks. Who's to blame for that?"
Scott hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly changed the subject.
"This is all the fault of your Golden Man Lane Chamber of Commerce!!"
The secretary was silent for a moment, then said, "This... I don't deny it."
Seeing that his secretary's voice had weakened, Scott became even more arrogant.
"Then say it louder! Say it like this: 'The Golden Man Alley Chamber of Commerce has let down the shops here, messed up the dock affairs, and everyone in the Golden Man Alley Chamber of Commerce is useless!'"
"Then kowtow loudly to me for the dates of the rent arrears and apologize to me on behalf of the company!"
Scott laughed arrogantly.
Xing, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and immediately raised her arm, ready to fight.
March 7th immediately stopped Xing, supporting her with both arms, "Wait, wait, don't be so impulsive!"
"This is unbelievable! I've never seen anyone so arrogant, even more arrogant than me!!" Xing had already raised his big stick.
"Hey! Hey, you bystander, what are you doing?"
"Does that mean everyone in Luofu is such an unreasonable person?" Scott immediately retorted.
"Calm down, Xing." Walter Yang also stepped in to stop Xing.
"Hey, your attitude is too arrogant. Can't we talk about the rent arrears properly?" Su Chang shouted immediately.
Scott sneered and looked at the Chamber of Commerce secretary. "I'm not trying to bully anyone, I'm just offering a friendly reminder. Can the company collect rent?"
The chamber of commerce secretary sighed helplessly, "Not now..."
Scott shook his head dismissively, saying with feigned regret, "The company subleased the operating rights of this wharf to your chamber of commerce, hoping that Golden Man Lane would flourish from then on... Look at you, such a good cargo wharf has been completely wasted!"
"Therefore, according to the contract, the company is now to take back Jinren Lane and turn it into a cultural street for the company."
“There’s nothing wrong with that, is there?” Scott continued.
"This..." The chamber of commerce secretary fell silent.
Upon hearing this reason, the train crew, who had just been preparing to show off their skills, fell silent.
After all, logically speaking, this seems to make no mistake.
Su Chang immediately said, "Who says the Chamber of Commerce is definitely unable to repay? What if... what if they could repay it?"
"Oh my, I can't even imagine it," Scott immediately feigned surprise.
"Anyway, what if we pay it back?" Su Chang continued.
"How about this, let's make a bet. If the Chamber of Commerce can pay back the company's rent, I will bow my head and apologize in front of the people of Jinren Lane, and I will give up the development rights of Jinren Lane."
"Furthermore, I'll loudly proclaim, 'I'm a blind fool! I don't know my place and all I do is bark!' Then I'll have to bark like a dog in front of you, how about that?" Scott's face was full of arrogance, showing no sign that he might lose.
After all, this trip to Luofu was backed by an honorary director.
Let's see how skillfully we acquire Golden Man Alley and develop it into a cultural street that pleases the honorary board members!
“Okay, but what if I lose the bet?” Su Chang agreed to Scott’s request.
“Simple, you apologize to me in front of the elders and villagers, and bark like a dog in front of me.” Scott laughed maliciously.
“Don’t agree, that’s too naive,” March 7th said, stepping forward.
“Exactly, exactly.” Hoshiya nodded.
"If you want to bet, bet on a baseball bat. Whoever loses gets hit with a bat."
“You…you’re even more childish.” March 7th was speechless.
Su Chang thought for a moment and said seriously, "Okay, it's a deal!"
Upon hearing Su Chang's agreement, Scott immediately became boastful, "Everyone heard it! I've been waiting for this! Hahaha, let's go!"
After saying that, Scott left with his men.
