C17 Alien hoodlum? A shocking change! (1/2)
”Oh, boss, your business is pretty good!” The sudden voice attracted the attention of everyone in the medicine shop, and even Ye Bufan instinctively looked towards the entrance.
A large group of men walked in from outside. They numbered between fifteen and twenty and were led by a tall and sturdy middle-aged man with a large bald head. He looked around the medicine store and asked, ”Who's the boss?”
”Masters, do you have any orders?” When the shop assistant saw this, he hurriedly went forward and greeted with a bow. The group of people in front of him were clearly not to be trifled with.
”You're the boss?” The bald man glanced at the shop assistant and asked.
”No, I —”
'Bang! '
Without waiting for the shop assistant to say anything, the bald man directly slapped his face. The burning pain instantly caused a red handprint to appear on the shop assistant's face. At this time, the bald man glared at the shop assistant and angrily said, ”If you aren't the boss, then what are you saying? Get your boss out here right now. ”
Ruthless, domineering, unreasonable.
The bald man's words and actions caused the servant to be stunned on the spot while covering his face. Even Luo Qianmo and the others were stunned, what was going on? Could it be that the medicinal herb in this pharmacy was so strong that it could kill a person? And now the other party has come knocking on his door?
If that was really the case, then even as the princess of an empire, Luo Qianmo had no right to interfere. Just as Luo Qianmo was about to step forward and ask, the bald man kicked the shop assistant again, and said fiercely: ”What the fuck are you standing there for? Why aren't you calling your boss out yet? Do you really need me to invite him? ”
After receiving a kick from the bald man, the shop assistant couldn't help but retreat before falling to the ground. He raised his head and looked at the bald man. The shop assistant immediately felt wronged. Tears welled up in his eyes as he said, ”Uncle, boss, our boss is not here.”
”Not here?” The bald man was stunned.
”Yes, yes, yes. Our boss went out to stock up. He won't be back until three days later.” The shop assistant covered his face and crawled up from the ground as he spoke.
”Eh?” The bald man frowned when he heard this. Then, he looked towards the shop assistant and said: ”Since your boss is not here, we can only look for you.”
”Huh?”
The shop assistant cried out in alarm. In an instant, he was dumbfounded.
”Great sir, I, I …”
”Why are you panicking? ”I'm telling you, I'm not here to cause you trouble. I'm here to give you some benefits.” However, at this time, the bald man walked in front of the shop assistant and put his arm around the shop assistant's shoulders and said with an embarrassed smile.
”Huh?”
The shop assistant was stunned again. Looking at the big bald man, a trace of suspicion flashed across his eyes – not looking for trouble has its benefits?
Even Luo Qianmo and the rest were stunned.
”What? You don't believe me?” Staring at the shop assistant, the bald man continued: ”The Tiantang City has been quite peaceful lately. There are always people coming out to cause trouble. I can't bear to see you merchants suffer such a loss for nothing. Since then, I have automatically organized my brothers to protect your lives and property from danger. Tell me, is this a good thing? ”
”Huh?”
The shop assistant looked at the bald man and let out another cry of alarm.
Protect them?
This was indeed a good thing.
However, the shop assistant's mind was filled with endless astonishment and confusion. This was because the troublemakers mentioned by the bald man had never encountered one, let alone one that could threaten their life and property. If there was, then the only thing he could think of was getting slapped and kicked by the big man. Other than that, the shop assistant really couldn't think of any other trouble.
However, at this time, the bald big man smiled and said, ”Of course, you also know that it isn't easy for us brothers. After all, we all have to support our families. In the past there were no problems, but now we have spent all our time protecting you, so while protecting you, we will also receive a certain amount of rewards. It's not much, only 3 gold coins a month. ”
”What?”
As soon as the bald man finished speaking, the shop assistant was immediately scared silly.
Three gold coins a month?
Not only the shop assistant, even the Empire's Princess Luo Qianmo was shocked. Three gold coins might not be much to the royal family, but it was definitely an astronomical figure for ordinary people. The Lord of Tiantang City, Liu Yong only had a salary of five gold coins a month, and that amount was already extremely high.
Originally, Luo Qianmo thought that there was a problem with the herbs sold in this medicine store, so these people came to him to denounce him. But from the looks of it, it was not what Luo Qianmo was thinking. The big bald man in front of him demanded three gold coins from him, and it was even for a month.
A ball of rage instantly rose from Luo Qianmo's heart. Luo Qianmo was like that, Ye Jingxuan and the rest were also the same.
”Heh.”
In the distance, Ye Bufan who was beside the medicine cabinet, could not help but smile slightly when he saw this scene, but that smile was fleeting, and everyone's attention was focused on the big bald man. No one paid attention to Ye Bufan, and no one paid attention to Ye Bufan's sudden change.
Protection fee?
Alien hoodlum?
Ye Bufan never thought that there would actually be hoodlums in the Martial God Continent. However, these hoodlums were really unlucky enough to actually charge a protection fee in front of Luo Qianmo.
Who is Luo Qianmo?
The Imperial Princess was a member of the royal family.
Collecting the protection fees in front of the Imperial Princess, this was simply openly provoking the Imperial Family, slapping them in the face, seeking death!
But Ye Bufan did not pay too much attention to it. While everyone's attention was focused on the bald man's group, Ye Bufan quickly chose the medicinal ingredients he needed.
Sure enough, Luo Qianmo took a step forward at this time, glaring at the bald man's back: ”Who are you people? The citizens of the empire have the protection of the royal family, the Tiantang City has the City Lord's Mansion, and there are City Guards. This is simply extortion, a robbery. You dare to provoke the laws of the empire?
