Chapter 226 Making trouble

Xue Ben's way of attracting people in was a bit unique and funny, but at least it worked well.

At least this afternoon, more and more people came and went. Soon, half of the incense bottles and jars that originally filled the entire counter were sold out.

Seeing such a novel and practical incense for the first time, many people just wanted to try it out, so they only bought one bottle for the first time. As for those who are rich, they bought a little more.

It took a few days. Business was pretty good these days, and many people came to Xue's incense shop out of curiosity. Of course, there would be people who would use this incense in these few days. When they found that this incense was really useful, more people came to Xue's incense shop. The sales volume was pretty good, and after a few days, the business became even more prosperous.

All the people in Beijing who have bought it say it is very useful, and the praises have never stopped.

Competition among peers is always fierce and cruel, and the dominance of one company will always attract the attention of others.

Some of the competitors in the same business are always dissatisfied, or jealous of this new store that suddenly snatched their business, and they have all kinds of bad intentions.

A big tree attracts the wind, and troubles will naturally follow.

On this day, Gu Junqing had just finished classes at the National Academy and was dragged by Gu Jiyan, who had nothing to do, to see how Xue Ben's store business was doing.

Gu Junqing did not refuse. He just slapped away Gu Jiyan's hand that was pulling his sleeve, and then walked in front of him, walking slowly.

Even so, Gu Jiyan, who was behind, almost didn't catch up, and was still complaining about why Gu Junqing was walking so fast. Gu Junqing didn't pay much attention to these complaints and self-talk, so she didn't respond. Gu Jiyan was also used to Gu Junqing's quiet personality, so he simply followed her side and talked here and there. Gu Jiyan didn't know what they said.

However, before the two of them walked into Xue's incense shop, they saw a group of people gathered at the door of the shop, making a lot of noise and pointing fingers.

Gu Junqing usually ignores these things, after all, it has nothing to do with him, but when it involves people around him, he will never ignore it. Gu Jiyan has the same idea as Gu Junqing, and the two of them look at each other, then bypass the people who are blocking the door to watch the fun or seek justice, and enter the lounge inside the store through the back door.

The two of them walked out of the lounge, and as soon as they opened the door, they saw Xue Ben standing in the middle of the crowd, looking at the person opposite him.

The person standing opposite Xue Ben was a middle-aged man with two long mustaches on both sides of his mouth. His deep eyes were like cow eyes, and he looked fierce and a little intimidating, not like a local of the capital.

Behind the man were two short and thin men who looked like servants. Like the man with ox eyes, they had angry expressions on their faces, as if they owed them hundreds of taels of silver.

He also shouted that the incense they used was poisonous or had other problems, and that smelling it would cause diarrhea, vomiting and other symptoms.

Gu Junqing and the others couldn't help themselves when they heard this. If the above symptoms really existed, then they would have died by now after using it for more than ten days, right?!

Gu Jiyan at the side couldn't help it. He got angry when he saw Xue Ben with his eyebrows drooping and looking a little overwhelmed. He had never seen Xue Ben like this before, so he rushed forward without thinking and stood between Xue Ben and the bull-eyed man. He looked at the people watching the excitement and they were surprised. Some people even recognized Gu Jiyan who suddenly stood up. Someone exclaimed:

"Why is Master Gu here?!" Many people present knew that Gu Jiyan was a well-known playboy in the capital, but he had been much more low-key in recent days and had not made any jokes. It was said that he was being kept under the control of Gu Junqing.

This rumor came out of nowhere and the people didn't know whether it was true or not.

Xue Ben did not expect Gu Ji Yan to appear suddenly. Like the people around him, he looked at the person who suddenly appeared with surprise. Although the stalemate was temporarily broken by Gu Ji Yan, Gu Ji Yan was still dragged in.

This was the situation he least wanted to see, so he frowned, his voice a little cold and helpless, and first asked him why he was here, then felt that it seemed inappropriate to ask this question now, and then advised him to stand aside while he could still get out of the current situation.

Seeing his brother being bullied like this and his favorite incense being slandered for no reason, Gu Jiyan was furious. How could he possibly listen to Xue Ben? So he stood between the two of them, staring at the bull-eyed man in front of him, ignoring Xue Ben who was standing behind him and trying to persuade him, and asked:

"What are you talking about? Don't slander people without evidence! According to what you said, people who use Xue's incense will have diarrhea and vomiting within two days. Then, I have been using it for more than ten days, so I will die here?!"

The man with ox eyes did not expect Gu Jiyan to suddenly appear. He saw that Gu Jiyan's words seemed to be speaking for Xue's incense shop, and the implication seemed to be that he was deliberately slandering him without any evidence.

He was stunned for a while. Even though he was afraid of what was happening behind Yan Yan, he came here with a purpose. In the plan, they were successful. Moreover, they were pushed to this point. If they gave up, wouldn't all their efforts be wasted?!

Obviously, the bull-eyed man didn't want to give up, so he took another step forward. His original pressing attitude was obviously weakened, and he turned into a flattering look. Of course, this flattery was only for Gu Jiyan's identity, but the man didn't mean to give in to the previous words. "Hey, my lord, I offended you. I apologize here, but in the same incense industry, such a fancy thing suddenly appeared. It looks quite interesting. People always want to try new things. I was also curious and bought a few bottles. I didn't expect that after using it for two days, my wife and children suddenly had abdominal pain and vomiting. After going to the doctor, I carefully searched the house and found that there was something wrong with the incense at home. The doctor asked us to throw these things away as soon as possible..."

He paused, then continued, "…After throwing it, I thought about how many people had bought this perfume in the past few days, and I was afraid that they would be harmed by it, so I made this fuss."
