Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

The people around looked at Li Youcai torturing Chen Tuzi, and many of them showed expressions of pity.

"Boss Li is so cruel!"

"I can't bear to watch it anymore, it's too scary!"

If you are not ruthless, you cannot stand firm!

Li Youcai did this to establish his authority.

No matter whether he has a bad reputation or a bad reputation, as long as he is famous, he will have fewer troubles when doing business in Teng County in the future.

At the very least, it can give those who want to take advantage of him a chance to think carefully.

Why did Du Yong and his wife dare to sell his recipe?

In the final analysis, it was because they were more afraid of Baldy Chen than they were of Li Youcai!

Why did Baldy Chen dare to openly oppose him and try to steal his ice cream business? It was because Li Youcai was unknown and was considered a weak target.

If this ice cream was made by a notary, even if Chen Tuzi had a hundred times the courage, he would not dare to think of it.

This is the stark reality.

"Ah..." Baldy Chen screamed heartbreakingly, then suddenly his eyes closed, his hands loosened, and he fainted.

Wang Qiang saw that Baldy Chen had fainted and looked at Li Youcai and asked, "What should we do?"

"Go get two basins of cold water." Li Youcai said softly.

Wang Qiang called his two brothers and went into the workshop to get two large basins of cold water.

"The water is coming."

"Throw it on their faces!" said Li Youcai.

Wang Qiang held the basins of water and poured one basin on Chen Tuzi's face and the other basin on Lao Er's face.

The ice-cold water immediately woke up Chen Tuzi and Lao Er.

call···

"Li Youcai, kill me if you have the guts!" Baldy Chen stared at Li Youcai and continued shouting.

hehe···

"Want to play tricks on me? Do you think I'm short of people to kill you, or short of money to kill you?" Li Youcai stood next to Baldy Chen, looking down at him.

His eyes were full of mockery.

"Baldy Chen, you may be a big shot in the peddler business, but you're nothing compared to me!"

"You bribed my people and stole my business. You brought this upon yourself."

"Don't say I won't give you a chance to live. You still have a lot of lunch boxes, right? Have them send them all to me tomorrow. I'll charge you 1 yuan each, so that you and your brothers can have some money to get through the crisis."

"If you're still not convinced, wait until your injury is healed and then we can continue playing."

After saying that, Li Youcai was too lazy to pay any more attention to Chen Tuzi.

He turned to look at the bloodied fourth brother and said in a deep voice, "Send your eldest brother to the hospital. I'll pay for the medical expenses."

"Open the gate and let them go!"

The fourth brother looked evasive and didn't dare to look at Li Youcai. He and the third brother supported the second brother, and the other brothers helped Chen Tuzi up. The group walked out of the yard in a mess.

He came with great momentum and left in a miserable state.

The peddlers around him all looked at Li Youcai with fear in their eyes.

"Everyone, keep working."

Back in the office, all the potatoes on the stove were cooked and the aroma filled the room.

Li Youjie couldn't help but ask, "Brother, we just beat up Chen Tuzi and the others, why are you still accepting their lunch boxes? Won't you make more money by doing this to them?"

Wang Qiang couldn't understand why Li Youcai did this: "Brother Cai, I don't quite understand. Baldy Chen has already become our enemy, why did you leave them money to cross the river?"

Li Youcai picked up a potato, blew on it a few times, and carefully peeled off the potato skin.

While eating baked potatoes, he said:

“Once a person knows he has no way out, he is likely to do anything.”

"Baldy Chen's money was all pooled by those people. Now he's lost it all, and we've dealt him a heavy hand. It's inevitable that he'll do something desperate. I'm not afraid, but I can't guard against thieves forever."

"Taking their lunch boxes and leaving some money for them is like giving them an opportunity to lose their temper, so that they won't fight to the death."

"Besides, we need to supply goods to Teng County and Taihe City, and we also need those lunch boxes. If we take them, we can save some money."

Upon hearing this, Li Youjie asked, "Are you so sure they will sell it to us?"

Li Youcai said confidently, "They will definitely sell it!"

On the other side, Baldy Chen and Lao Er were sent to the hospital.

Although the second brother was knocked unconscious, his injuries were not too serious. Like the other brothers, he was disinfected with iodine and gauze was put on the wound, and that was it.

Baldy Chen was pushed into the operating room, where the doctor performed surgery to set his bones and inserted several steel nails.

In the ward, Baldy Chen was lying on the bed after the operation.

The other brothers were sitting or standing in the room, waiting for Baldy Chen to wake up.

The fourth brother came back originally just to report the news, but ended up going to the ice cream factory and getting beaten up.

"Second brother, what should we do next?" asked the fourth brother.

"You ask me what to do, how would I know? Let's ask the eldest brother after he wakes up." The second brother said unhappily.

It is definitely impossible to make ice cream now. We all pooled together several thousand yuan, but now there is not much left. We just performed surgery on Baldy Chen and paid a deposit of 200 yuan. We don’t know if it is enough.

Everyone has been exhausted for nearly a month, but ended up like this. Everyone is a little discouraged.

Staying in the ward, everyone was listless and groggy.

Lao Wu's face was filled with worry as he muttered, "Second brother, we can't just let this go, can we? We've spent all our money and now it's like this, what are we going to do?"

"You all ask me, how do I know what to do?"

"Mr. Li asked us to sell our lunch boxes to him for one yuan each. Should we sell them to him?" Lao Liu suddenly said.

As soon as this question was asked, everyone became nervous and looked at each other, wanting to see what others thought.

They had 1000 lunch boxes, and if they sold them to Li Youcai, they could get 1000 yuan in return. Although it wasn't much per person, it was enough for everyone to have a full meal and start over.

Just like what Li Youcai said, everyone can have enough money to cross the river.

But Baldy Chen had just had his hand broken. If they really sold it to Li Youcai, it would be a clear admission of defeat to Li Youcai.

For a moment, no one spoke and the room became strangely quiet.

After a long time.

It was Lao Liu who spoke up quietly, "If we don't sell them, it will be hard for us to get one dollar for so many lunch boxes."

"Sell it."

At some point, Baldy Chen woke up and heard the conversation between his brothers.

"Brother, you're awake!"

"Brother, I don't mean anything else. I was just saying it casually." Seeing that Baldy Chen had woken up and heard what he said, Lao Liu hurriedly defended himself.

"Second brother, you guys should deliver all the lunch boxes to Li Youcai tomorrow. After you get the money, just divide it up. I overestimated my abilities and thought I could lead everyone to get rich, but ended up causing everyone to lose everything along with me. I'm sorry for you." said Baldy Chen.

Hearing this, Lao Liu hurriedly said, "Brother, I was wrong! It's just sugar and milk powder coupons. I'll go to Taihe City tomorrow to get them. We'll continue making ice cream and fight with Mr. Li to the end."

Baldy Chen looked at his surly brother and said softly, "Forget it, let's not do it. We can't beat him. Mr. Li is right. We can't beat him in terms of money or people, and I'm even less of a match for him in terms of brains."

"Just now, when I was half asleep, I figured it out. When we were peddlers, we were so powerful that others were afraid of us and didn't dare to compete with us for business, so we made money. Now we've met someone even more powerful, and we've lost money."

"He, Li, will definitely meet someone more powerful than him in the future, and he will be defeated by him."

"There are always people who are better than you, and there are always mountains who are better than you."

"I've already been in jail for a year. I don't want to go back to that kind of life. After I recover, I'll continue to pick up goods."

The second brother and the others looked at each other in confusion.
