Chapter 3401: Chapter 3393: Let’s Wait It Out
"50,000?"
Chen Lin looked at the tattooed man, "Don’t be ridiculous. This is part of the government car incentive program. People buy cars here for the sales volume, not much profit. I can’t give you that much money."
"Well, it can’t be helped then. You decide for yourselves what to do."
"Don’t push it too far!"
Chen Lin raised her voice, and her eyes turned fierce!
"What’s too far about this?" The tattooed man shrugged and said:
"Everyone’s got to eat. You came late. Who can you blame?"
The tattooed man lit another cigarette, looking a bit impatient.
"Alright, stop dawdling. If you don’t want it, just leave quickly. Don’t get in the way. We still have business to attend to."
"Then return our money!"
"Refund?"
The tattooed man looked at Chen Lin and laughed loudly.
"What did you say? You’re actually asking me for a refund?"
"We’re not renting anymore, and you won’t refund our money?!"
"You’re somewhat reputable, aren’t you? Don’t you understand this logic?" The tattooed man said:
"The 10,000 you paid is a deposit, considered an advance payment, and it cannot be refunded once paid."
Chen Lin glared, visible anger appearing on her face.
Just when Chen Lin was about to argue, Lin Yi suddenly grabbed her arm and stood in front of her.
"Let’s talk it over peacefully." Lin Yi looked at the tattooed man and said:
"You’re probably just the caretakers here, not the actual person in charge, right?"
The tattooed man sized up Lin Yi, "Why do you ask?"
"Just trying to find out. No need for unpleasantness. Peace leads to wealth, doesn’t it?"
"This land belongs to our Dingsheng Food Factory."
"Dingsheng Food Factory..."
Lin Yi muttered, quickly figuring out the situation here.
According to the rules, it is indeed their land. This time it’s a temporary lease for an event, in cooperation with the authorities.
Then they share the profits with the authorities, a win-win partnership.
This cooperation model has no issue, but the way they are doing it is wrong.
Lin Yi checked his watch, it was now 2 p.m.
"Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. Inform your boss about this. In half an hour, I hope you can resolve this. Otherwise, face the consequences."
The tattooed man’s face changed, and his expression turned cold.
"Are you threatening me?"
"I wouldn’t call it a threat—just reciprocity." Lin Yi said calmly.
"Heh..."
The tattooed man let out a cold laugh, "Do you think we’re nobodies here? Do you even know who you’re talking to?"
Lin Yi shrugged, not showing any anger.
"We’ll see, anyway, I’m in no rush."
With that said, Lin Yi pulled Chen Lin, and the four of them headed outside.
"Do you know anyone here?"
"No."
"Then it’s none of your business here."
"Don’t worry, I’ve got it covered."
"What now? Just wait here for them?"
"Let’s go for a walk, consider it a sightseeing trip, give ourselves a break."
Lin Yi went to the tow truck and said to the driver:
"Sir, please wait a bit longer. I’ll transfer an extra 500 yuan to you later."
"Thank you, boss."
The four of them got back in the car, and Lin Yi opened the navigation.
"The map shows there’s a Beishan Scenic Area nearby, we can go take a look."
"Lin Yi, the event starts tomorrow, we can’t be too careless." He Li reminded.
"It’s not a big deal, just trust me, don’t worry about anything else."
As he spoke, Lin Yi followed the navigation with the three of them to Beishan Scenic Area to pass the time.
...
After Lin Yi left, the tattooed man returned to the activity prefab, picked up his cards, ready to continue playing Landlord.
"Brother Liu, the city women sure are something else, way better than the ones in the county,"
"Of course, look at that figure, who wouldn’t be tempted." said Liu Xuewu, the tattooed man:
"But that guy was a bit arrogant, asked me to settle this by 3 p.m., or face the consequences, damn it, does he think he can scare me?"
"What? An outsider dares to talk like that?"
"Just showing off, and even asked me to tell our boss about it, like he’s some big shot." Liu Xuewu grumbled:
"I was in a good mood, or else I would have kicked him right there!"
"These city folks, they really don’t know their place."
"Probably think they’re superior, being from the city, thinking they’re a cut above us."
"Heh..."
Liu Xuewu let out a cold laugh, "I’m just too lazy to bother, or I’d slap him till his teeth fell out."
"Let’s just play cards, Brother Liu, don’t mind them."
"Come, let’s continue, I need to win more today."
The three of them paid no heed to such concerns, continuing their card game.
About an hour later, all three of their phones rang simultaneously.
"What’s all this stuff coming from the group now?"
They put down their cards and checked the group messages on their phones.
"What’s going on? Our shipment didn’t pass the toll station?"
"What’s this nonsense? A lot of the stuff has expiry dates and needs to be delivered tonight, yet they’re holding it up. Must be causing trouble on purpose." said Liu Xuewu.
"That’s possible, never happened before."
"Look again, not only isn’t the shipment out, even our incoming supplies are blocked."
"What’s the deal here? It’s definitely intentional."
Liu Xuewu lit a cigarette, "Don’t panic, it’s nothing. With our boss’s ability, this can be fixed in no time."
"Brother Liu, the toll station blocking us isn’t under our control, seems like even reaching out doesn’t help."
Liu Xuewu smacked his lips, "This is strange, suddenly happening like this."
"I’ve got it!"
One of them had a realization, his face not looking too good.
"Brother Liu, something’s off."
"What’s off?"
"That kid just said to sort this by 3 o’clock and face the consequences, and now it’s exactly 3. Could he be behind this?"
Liu Xuewu’s expression changed, but he was still skeptical.
"That’s unlikely." Liu Xuewu said:
"He’s just a car seller, how could he have such influence."
"But he did say those words, and it really happened."
"It’s simple, just make a call to find out."
Liu Xuewu weighed his phone for a moment and then dialed Chen Lin’s number, putting it on speaker.
"President Chen, there’s an issue with our goods and materials. It wasn’t you, was it?"
But it wasn’t Chen Lin who responded, it was Lin Yi.
"I can’t answer that, but you’d better sort out the booth issue, we have plenty of time to wait it out."
