"Rong Yu, you are just too soft-hearted." Lao Zhang smiled and patted Rong Yu on the shoulder. "We are all brothers. Your business is our business. These little hooligans will not know how to be afraid unless they are treated with some force."

Rong Yu sighed: "I'm not afraid of trouble, I just don't want to cause trouble for you."

"What trouble are you causing?" Old Zhang's eyes widened. "We are all family. Your business is my business. Besides, these young people are just asking for trouble. If we don't teach them a lesson, they will really think this world is theirs."

At this point, Lao Zhang suddenly remembered something and asked Rong Yu, "By the way, you weren't hurt when we fought just now, were you?"

Rong Yu shook his head: "I'm fine, but are you guys injured anywhere?"

Lao Zhang checked himself and looked at the other workers, all of whom shook their heads to indicate that they were fine. He breathed a sigh of relief:

"That's good. Although we are not afraid of this kind of thing, we still have to be careful."

Rong Yu didn't know that more troublesome things were yet to come!

The little yellow-haired boy they offended was a gangster in the neighborhood!

They all call him Little Leek!

He usually doesn't do anything serious, but he is good at making trouble. This time he was beaten up by Lao Zhang and his gang, he must be not convinced!

"Rong Yu, although we beat back the gang of thugs this time, I'm afraid the matter is not over yet." Lao Zhang frowned and said, "Especially that little leek. I saw that his eyes were full of resentment. People like him will not give up easily."

After hearing this, Rong Yu showed a worried look: "What should we do? We can't just wait here for them to come every day, right?"

"Hmph, come on, who's afraid of who!" A worker waved his fist and said, "There are so many of us, are we afraid of a few hooligans?"

Old Zhang shook his head: "That being said, we still have to be careful. After all, it's easy to dodge an open attack, but it's hard to guard against an arrow from the dark."

At this moment, a younger brother ran over in a hurry: "Brother Zhang, Brother Yu, something bad has happened! I saw Xiao Jiuhuang and the others wandering around, as if they were looking for an opportunity to take revenge!"

"These little bastards really dare to come!" Lao Zhang's eyes widened, "Everyone, get ready. We are going to teach them a profound lesson this time!"

However, Rong Yu stopped everyone: "Wait, we can't solve the problem with violence. This will only make things more complicated."

"Then what do you say we should do?" Old Zhang looked at Rong Yu, "We can't just let them do whatever they want, right?"

Rong Yu pondered for a moment, then said: "We can try to negotiate with them and see if we can resolve this matter peacefully."

"Negotiate? Negotiate with these little hooligans?" Lao Zhang was puzzled. "Do you think they will listen to us?"

"We have to give it a try." Rong Yu said firmly, "I believe that people are inherently good. They may just be misled, and we need to give them a chance."

So, Rong Yu brought a few co-workers to find Xiao Jiuhuang and his friends. The two sides sat in an abandoned warehouse, and the atmosphere was very tense.

"Little leek, we are here this time to resolve this matter with you peacefully." Rong Yu spoke first, "We know that you may have misunderstood us, but we don't want you to continue to misunderstand us."

After hearing this, Little Leek sneered: "Misunderstanding? You beat us so badly that day, and you still say it's a misunderstanding?"

"That's because you guys were the first to provoke us." A worker couldn't help but say, "We were just trying to protect ourselves."

"Self-protection? Haha, what a joke!" Little Leek's eyes widened, "So many of you beat up a few of us, and you still say it's self-protection?"

Rong Yu signaled his coworkers to calm down, and then continued to say to Xiao Jiuhuang: "We know you may feel it is unfair, but you did go too far that day. We don't want to cause trouble, but we just hope you can understand that this world is not ruled by fists."

After hearing this, Xiao Jiuhuang was silent for a moment. He looked at Rong Yu and the others, then at the brothers around him, as if he was making some kind of trade-off.

"Okay, let's forget about this matter." Little Leek finally said, "But we still have a score to settle."

"What account?" Rong Yu asked.

"Your barbecue stall is doing so well, but we're hungry every day." Little Leek said coldly, "Shouldn't you give us some compensation?"

After hearing this, Rong Yu understood what Xiao Jiuhuang meant. He thought about it and then said:

“Actually, I’m not the boss!”

"You're not the boss? Didn't you say you are the boss?"

"Little leek, I said that before just so I could sit down and have a good talk with you. I'm really not the boss, I'm just helping out at the barbecue stall." Rong Yu explained, "But I can talk to the boss for you and see if I can provide you with some discounts or help."

Little Leek frowned and said in obvious displeasure: "Are you kidding us? You are not the boss, so what are we talking to you about?"

Rong Yu took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone calm: "Although I'm not the boss, I have a good relationship with the boss. I can help you communicate and see if there is any possibility of cooperation. You also know that fighting on an empty stomach is not good for anyone, right?"

"Then what do you say we should do?" Little Leek still looked unhappy, but his tone had softened a little.

"You said, as long as I don't make it difficult, it's all right!"

Rong Yu said!

"A barbecue every day?"

"I can't make the decision on this. This is not my stall!"

"Boy, are you here to negotiate or are you just kidding? There's no benefit at all, why should I reconcile with you!?"

The little yellow-haired boy said provocatively!

Rong Yu frowned, he knew this negotiation would not be easy. He looked at Xiao Jiuhuang's provocative eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly said: "Xiao Jiuhuang, I'm not here to bullshit, I really want to solve the problem with you. The barbecue stall is not mine, this is a fact. But I can go and discuss with the boss to see if I can give you some substantial help."

Little Leek snorted, with a look of disdain: "Why do you think your boss will listen to you? You are not his biological father."

Rong Yu smiled slightly: "I am indeed not the boss's biological father, but the boss is a sensible person. He knows that harmony brings wealth, and it is always better to have more friends than more enemies, isn't it?"

"Then what benefits can you give us?" A younger brother next to Xiao Jiuhuang interrupted.

"I can talk to the boss and reserve some barbecue for you every day, or give you some discounts." Rong Yu looked into their eyes and said seriously, "This way, you can solve the problem of food and clothing, and avoid more conflicts."

Xiao Jiuhuang and his brothers looked at each other, as if considering the proposal. After a while, Xiao Jiuhuang spoke up: "If we accept your proposal, then we can't bother you anymore in the future?"

Rong Yu nodded: "Of course. Wouldn't it be better if we lived in peace and respected each other?"

"What if we are not satisfied?" asked the little leek.

"If you are not satisfied, you can talk to me at any time. But if you make trouble again, we will not be polite." Rong Yu's tone was firm and powerful.

Little Leek was silent for a moment, then said, "You're welcome? Why are you rude? What can you do to me?"

"Little leek, you think you are so powerful, but in my opinion, you are just a little gangster!"

Rong Yu’s words immediately angered him!

Little Leek suddenly stood up and pointed at Rong Yu angrily: "You said I'm a gangster? Who the hell do you think you are!"

Rong Yu was unmoved. He looked at the little leek calmly: "I'm not belittling you, I'm just stating the facts. Do you think your current life is what you want? Living in a muddle every day, relying on fighting and threats to get by?"

"What the hell do you know!" the little leek roared, "I live my life the way I want to, I don't need you to tell me what to do!"

"Yes, you are free." Rong Yu nodded, "But have you ever thought that your life could have another possibility? Not fighting with others for a meal every day, not living in the contempt and ridicule of others forever."

Xiao Jiuhuang was stunned. He obviously didn't expect Rong Yu to say such a thing. His younger brothers also quieted down and looked at Rong Yu, seemingly thinking about his words.

"What do you mean?" Little Leek widened his eyes and looked at Rong Yu in confusion.

"I mean, you have better choices." Rong Yu said gently!

"Are you brainwashing me?" The gangster was furious!

"I didn't. In fact, I really don't want to brainwash you. I don't even have time! I have a lot of things to do!" He said to those people!

"Then what are you talking about!"
