Waves of wails resounded in the morning market, attracting more onlookers.
Qin Xi looked at the hooligans and sneered. She walked up to the blond-haired man who was in pain and stepped on his hand. “Tell me, who instructed you to do this? If you don’t tell me, I’ll crush your hand.”
The man grimaced in pain. “Ouch, it hurts. Let go of me first. I’ll tell you.”
“You are not in the place to negotiate with me. Are you going to tell me or not?” Qin Xi exerted some force, and the man screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
“I will, I will. They, they asked me to do this… Let me go. I won’t do it again.” The man was in so much pain that his face turned pale. He pointed at a stall nearby.
Qin Xi looked over and saw that the middle-aged woman selling vegetables was pale and trembling. She had seen what Qin Xi was capable of. She wanted to run, but her legs wouldn’t listen. “No, it’s not me. You’re slandering me…”
At this point, everyone understood what it was about.
Qin Xi let out a silent sigh. Actually, she already knew what was going on. It was just a business tactic.
Her vegetables were sold for a sky-high price. These people must be indignant and came up with this idea to threaten her and scare her out of the business.
But then again, if she did not know martial arts, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Qin Xi looked at the middle-aged woman selling vegetables. “What do you think we should do about this?”
The middle-aged woman looked at the other stalls with pleading eyes, but to her surprise, these people looked away, pretending it had nothing to do with them.
The woman knew that she was pushed out as a scapegoat. She cried and said with a trembling voice, “It’s up to you to decide.”
Qin Xi thought for a moment and said, “Alright, from now on, you’ll need to provide me with net bags.”
The woman was stunned. “Is that all?”
Qin Xi raised her eyebrows. “What else do you want me to ask for?”
“No, no, I’ll give you net bags.”
The woman did not expect Qin Xi to only ask her to provide net bags. Afraid that she would go back on her word, she quickly gave the net bags to Qin Xi.
Net bags will be equivalent to plastic bags in the future. Some people liked carrying baskets around, while others liked to use net bags which were more convenient and easy to carry around.
Qin Xi originally wanted to punish this woman, but after taking a closer look at her face, she knew that this woman had to bring up a whole family alone. In the end, she decided to forgive her.
Moreover, this woman was just being pushed out to take the bullet. Today, she had already made an example of the woman. There was no need to blow the matter up. It was enough to intimidate her.
However, these hooligans had crushed her cabbage. This matter was absolutely intolerable.
“Now, It’s your turn to choose between paying me and losing one hand.”
Qin Xi stepped on the blond-haired man’s hand.
The man let out another heart-breaking scream. “I’ll pay you, I’ll pay you!” Damn it, he had never seen such a ferocious woman in his life.
The man took out a few cents. “You can keep the charge.”
Qin Xi sneered. “Are you serious? This can’t even buy the leaves of my vegetables.”
The man was stunned. He looked at the cents in his hand and then at the crushed cabbage.
He suddenly felt that Qin Xi was insulting his intelligence. A few cents was clearly enough to buy a lot of cabbage. Why did she say that?
Qin Xi revealed an innocuous smile and said, “Don’t question me. My cabbage is inlaid with gold, so… 10 yuan for each!”
