”The business across the street is pretty good. People come and go everyday.

The servant smiled sinisterly, ”I can't believe that a useless scholar would rely on a woman to set the business on fire.

Yu Zhanhong's eyes turned cold as he sent the wine cup flying with a slap, ”Go, find a few people to help them create some momentum.”

The attendant understood in his heart. ”I understand.”

It was a good afternoon. Su Zhi was in the dessert shop discussing the new dish with a few bakery masters when she vaguely heard a commotion from outside.

Without waiting for her to go out and check, Qiu Hong ran in frantically.

”Boss, quickly go take a look. There's a group of people outside. It seems like they're here to cause trouble.”

Su Zhi stared blankly for a moment. She had not expected that trouble would come so soon.

With a certain scale of business, there would always be cases of red-eye disease, and all kinds of troubles also came pouring in.

”Who are they?”

”Like those unlearned and unskilled popinjays who don't come in to look at things, only saying that they want to buy the most special things. Manager Li has gone out to deal with them. ”

Logically speaking, ordinary rich kids wouldn't care about a 'flower-filled building'. This department store was only for ordinary people living in small shops.

Although the promotional slogan in the shop was to help customers settle any items they needed to buy, there were no distinguished customers on the second floor other than the third floor.

Intuition told Su Zhi that this wave of rich family disciples must have come to cause trouble.

The more prosperous the business was, the more envious people would be. It was expected that they would come looking for trouble.

She put down the dessert recipe and followed Qiu Hong out of the backyard.

Just as they reached the main hall, they heard a mocking voice, ”Alright, that's enough. You're surnamed Li, who doesn't know that you're a rotten Elementary Scholar who relies on women to make a name for himself. What's the point of being so arrogant.”

Li Yi's face turned red from anger, but it wasn't good for him to flare up. After all, this was the entrance of a shop. There were a lot of people inside and out, and quarrelling would affect the business.

”What? It seems like you're not convinced? Bro, you're right.”

”Hahahahaha!”

Su Zhi looked towards the direction of the voice and saw a few young noblemen wearing embroidered clothes standing in front of Flowerflower Restaurant's entrance, laughing mockingly at Li Yi in front of them without restraint.

Even though Li Yi was enraged, he still didn't lose his reason. He clenched his fists and didn't say anything.

”How did your accountant do? How many months does the little lady give you? ”Why not come to my house and help me carry my shoes? Maybe I can even give you a bit more.”

”You!”

Li Yi gnashed his teeth in anger. His fist fiercely smashed onto the counter.

”Don't speak nonsense. Be careful that I may sue you for slander!”

”Hahahaha.”

Elementary Scholar Li's warning did not stop them from humiliating him. Instead, he laughed even louder.

”Then why don't you go!”

The others continued doing whatever they wanted, clearly not putting Elementary Scholar Li in their eyes.

In the private room across the street, a shrewd man in a brocade robe was fanning himself with a fan. His mood also improved a lot.

Yu Zhanhong was waiting for something good to happen, but he didn't expect the bookworm to be even more tolerant than he thought. He was only missing calling out to his dead parents, yet he was still able to endure.

”Elementary Scholar Li, you lost all of your roots and relied on women to revive your ancestors. I'm afraid your parents in the underworld will die from anger and not even be able to reincarnate.”

”Hahahaha!”

”You! You bastards! ”

Li Yi finally lost his reason. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush out.

Yu Zhanhong smiled in satisfaction. That's right, the angrier he got, the better it was for him. If the news of Hua Manlou beating up a customer got out, who would dare come knocking on their door again?

Although they were not official families, they were at least nephews who were related to the court officials. If they were to go to court, they might not suffer a loss.

”Everyone!”

Just as Li Xiusheng was about to rush out, Su Zhi quickly pulled him back.
