Chapter 163: The Last Straw
(Ask for a ticket!) Ask for a ticket! )
Do you have peace of mind when you have the goods?
Chen Tongsheng's ideal situation is naturally like this, but he didn't expect that the grain he bought at a high price was actually the batch he sold some time ago.
But if he knew this, he would not stand at the door of the business to show off his might, but would go to Guangjitang to see a doctor.
But why didn't anyone come and buy it?
Chen Tongsheng didn't understand very much, obviously he sold at the same price as the other three, why didn't anyone come to buy his own grain, and only went to Li Yaoyang's store?
If Li Yaoyang is here, he must be willing to answer his doubts.
Why? Because he put up an 'advertisement' in the store, no, more precisely, a propaganda slogan, to teach everyone how to distinguish old grain.
At the same price, who wants to eat stale grain?
What's more, the three stores also tacitly carry out promotional discounts for old grains, which means that you can buy aged grains at a lower price.
Giving customers one more choice is also a greater respect for customers.
Chen Tongsheng naturally didn't know about these activities hidden in the 'shadows', and with his pride, he was definitely unwilling to go to the enemy's store to inquire about the situation.
Holding a high-priced beam and not being able to sell it, seeing the enemy's business growing day by day, Chen Tongsheng felt tired.
It is difficult to maintain expenses just by relying on the little income contributed by the disciples and grandchildren, after all, you earn more and spend more, do you think you don't need to spend money to cultivate reserve talents?
Under the siege of the three stores, the Tan Kee firm became dispensable, because no matter which direction it came from, the Tan Kee firm was not the closest one.
In other words, even if ordinary people come to them and suddenly remember to buy grain, they will not go to Chen Kee to buy it, even if the distance is limited.
In fact, it is not that there are no people who have inadvertently bumped into it, but as a result, they scolded and left at a glance, and Chen Tongsheng was completely depressed.
On the other side, Li Yaoyang finally found a good way to deal with pickpockets.
In fact, it is also a stupid method, that is, a crowd tactic, he set up roadblocks at various entrances of Kenny Street on the grounds of scientific epidemic prevention, and anyone who can smoothly reveal the home address and background information is basically a legitimate person.
Occasionally, there are sneaky ones, and their mouths are not clean, but they do not refuse to answer.
Only those who are thieves with weak hearts will instinctively retreat in the face of this situation, either turn around and run, or stumble to report false information.
Enter Kenny Street and give an access card, return it when you come out, and see at a glance what you bought.
In this era, no one is idle on the streets, especially Kenny Street, and there is no scenery to see.
Although such a toss has made the people miserable, coupled with the frequent thefts that occurred before, the passenger flow has indeed decreased somewhat.
But long pain is better than short pain, and if you want to solve the problem, this painful period must be experienced.

"Sir, Commissioner Maffett has made an appointment to meet, and he is in a hurry."
"No matter how anxious I am, I can't go back today, tomorrow."
"Yes, I'll tell him."
"How's it going to be at the hotel? Nothing happened, right? ”
"I was about to report that a group of people came a few days ago, and it didn't feel like ordinary guests who came to consume, they opened an ordinary room, stayed in it for a day, and only came out at night."
Hearing Steven's report, Li Yaoyang frowned sensitively, feeling that something was wrong:
"A group of people? How many, who are they? ”
"Four, all men, said to be tourists from New York, but I don't think it's like it, one of them has a square face, and there is a smell of strips on his body."
Li Yaoyang's heart is tight:
"Is it from the sheriff's office?"
"Absolutely not! I know the people there! "Steven was categorical.
"I know, keep an eye on it, what they did, where they went, they have to write it down, I'll go back tomorrow, there are still some things in Chinatown that haven't been resolved."
"Don't worry, sir."
After hanging up the phone, the blind old man couldn't help asking:
"Something happened over there, too?"
A bitter smile appeared on Li Yaoyang's face:
"It seems like that, it's really eventful."
"It's winter."
Is this a joke? Li Yaoyang reluctantly smiled, okay, it can be regarded as a chat for comfort.
But the blind old man's voice changed:
"Wang Peng hasn't been found yet, Chen Tongsheng's side hasn't been completely crushed, and the matter in Chinatown hasn't been resolved."
"I know, the troubles have to be solved one by one, and we can't mess up, don't worry, it's time to finish here, and it's the last blow before Chen Tongsheng raises his hand to surrender!"
The final blow he was referring to was to make Chen Tongsheng empty.
What is the thief most afraid of?
Exposure, of course!
Lai Yaoyang plastered small advertisements on the streets near the Chen Kee firm, painted all the portraits of the Chen Kee firm and other people, and wrote the word 'thief' on his face.
Next to it, a whole sheet of paper is used to detail the origin of the empty door and what he did in peacetime.
It's good now, Chen Tongsheng is famous!
is old, and he is known to the world in such a way, and he doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.
Early in the morning, an apprentice rushed into the business with a torn off 'small advertisement':
"Master, it's not good, something is wrong."
Chen Tongsheng scolded:
"Panic, what do you look like, you need to calm down when you encounter a big event, didn't your master teach you?"
The disciple was in a hurry:
"Master, let's take a look first."
Chen Tongsheng snatched it away, pulled down his face from the first sight, and finally was blue!
"Bastard thing! Little rabbit cub doesn't talk about martial arts! ”
Wude? Li Yaoyang said: I have always persuaded people with virtue, and I will beat you without a single soldier.
A bunch of guys who can't be on the stage, call you Shengye, and still treat yourself as God?
Do you know that God can't control the affairs of the Chinese?
Chen Tongsheng was really angry, and smashed everything in his own business, scattering rice and noodles all over the ground, mixed with cooking oil, and making it all over the place.
Coincidental or not, you say?
There were no customers coming to the door for several days, but just in time for a person who went to the wrong place, thinking that they would come and buy some by the way.
As a result, when I saw this scene, I was dumbfounded:
"Eh~ This is a fresh way to eat?"
Poof~ A mouthful of old blood spurted out, and Chen Tongsheng roared angrily: "Get out!" Get lost! Get lost! ”
Frightened, the customer fled, and the posture was to eat people, not as knowledgeable as a psychopath.
This one was really not arranged by Li Yaoyang, let's just say, when people are unlucky, they drink cold water and stuff their teeth, who would have thought that the last straw that broke the camel would be an accident.
Moments before leaving for Atlantic City, Chen Tongsheng came to the door and begged for mercy.
Looking at his disgraced appearance, I know that he must be desperate, he has lived most of his life, and he was cleaned up by a fledgling little child, where to put this old face?
Li Yaoyang stood at the door of the house, lit a cigarette, and waited for Chen Tongsheng to take the initiative to speak.
It's all here, what kind of stubbornness are you performing?
