Chapter 2187: Chapter 2040: Payment Upon Delivery
"Boss Li, I wanted to keep it for you. You didnāt see it, I didnāt even put it outside, just placed two pieces on the side. But the customer has sharp eyes, spotted it immediately, what could I do?" The herbal shop owner said to Boss Li.
"Which customer is so blind? How dare they buy the goods I asked to keep?" Boss Li got angry, pointing at the herbal shop owner.
"Itās that boss, many other shops also sold to him, heās a big spender, bought hundreds of thousands worth of herbs!" The herbal shop owner said to Boss Li.
"You hurry up and get me back those deer antlers, or Iāll smash your shop!" Boss Li threatened the herbal shop owner.
"How can I retrieve sold items, Boss Li? Maybe just let it go this time? Next time I come across good stuff, Iāll save it for you?" The herbal shop owner pleaded with Boss Li.
"You really donāt want to work anymore, huh?" Boss Li moved to overturn the huge basket of herbs on the stall.
"No, no, no, Boss Li, Iāll go beg them now, okay? Iāll get those deer antlers back, alright? Please donāt smash the shop!"
The herbal shop owner then came to find Song Xiaodong.
"Sir, please help!" The herbal shop owner approached and grabbed Song Xiaodongās arm.
"Whatās wrong?" Song Xiaodong didnāt understand what happened.
"Sir, the deer antlers I just sold, sir, could you return them? Iām really sorry, it was a mistake on our part, this batch of deer antlers was already reserved!" The herbal shop owner pleaded with Song Xiaodong.
Mr. Li also followed the herbal shop owner up, glanced at Song Xiaodong, and with a disdainful look at the large and small parcels in the hands of Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling, asked, "You two bought my deer antlers?"
Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling remained silent.
"Iām really sorry, both of you, this was a mistake on our shopās part. We are willing to offer compensation, please return the deer antlers to us as they were reserved for this gentleman." The herbal shop owner said to Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling.
"Hmph, kid, not everything is up for grabs. Hurry and return my deer antlers, buying things should be about first come, first served!" Boss Li said to Song Xiaodong.
"Boss, itās money for goods. These things are mine now, why should I return them?" Chu Xianling couldnāt help but speak up.
"Miss, Iām really sorry, this was our shopās mistake. These deer antlers were prepared for Mr. Li, but our staff mishandled things and sold them to you. It was a mistake on our part, we apologize and hope you can return the deer antlers to us!" The herbal shop owner said to Chu Xianling.
"Weāve already bought these, weāre definitely not giving them back." Chu Xianling firmly refused to give in.
"Alright, punk, if you donāt give me those deer antlers today, Iāll make sure you canāt leave this herbal wholesale market!" Boss Li pointed at Song Xiaodong, threatening.
Song Xiaodong lifted his foot, and before the herbal shop owner could react, just as he was about to persuade Boss Li, Boss Li unexpectedly recoiled, his big belly collapsing as he crashed into the counter of a nearby herbal shop, covered in herbs.
"Damn, youāve really lived enough, kid! Someone help!"
"Look quickly, Boss Li is fighting over herbs again!"
"Thereās another commotion to watch!"
"Isnāt this the big boss who just bought that batch of wild mountain ginseng from our shop?"
"Yes, this boss has an excellent eye. He can tell the quality of things at a glance!"
"Theyāre all big bosses, not one to provoke!"
"Here they come, here they come!"
With Boss Liās shout, a group of burly men came clattering up from the first floor, about to encircle Song Xiaodong. Song Xiaodong sidestepped, kicked one person flying, and the remaining people went tumbling like bowling pins.
When they got up again, they were kicked down by Song Xiaodong. After a few rounds of this, everyone realized they couldnāt win and decided not to get up, instead pretending they couldnāt rise and groaning on the ground.
"What am I paying you for? Kid, donāt be arrogant, have the guts to stay put!" Boss Li climbed up, pointing at Song Xiaodong, taunting.
"Iām not done shopping, why would I leave?" Song Xiaodong asked Boss Li.
The herbal shop owner, seeing Song Xiaodongās high combat power, was trembling with fear, but he knew dealing with Boss Li was tougher, so he still approached and said to Song Xiaodong: "Sir, please return the deer antlers, I can give you extra compensation. I still need to do business; offending Mr. Li means I really canāt do business anymore!"
Song Xiaodong was unmoved and said to the herbal shop owner: "Boss, if you donāt want to sell me the goods for some other reason, then I can return them to you. But if itās because youāre afraid of this bald man, then I tell you, I definitely wonāt return the items!"
The herbal shop owner felt even more troubled, seeing that the two were at an impasse, making it hard for him on both sides.
The shop owner could only continue pleading with a mournful face to Song Xiaodong: "Sir, I really canāt sell these deer antlers, itās not related to this boss, itās that I donāt want to sell them. To be honest, this batch of deer antlers is fake, theyāre not good deer antlers at all. Our staff misjudged, and sir, you also misjudged. If you take this pack of deer antlers at this price, youāll definitely regret it!"
