Chapter 829: Chapter 825 Extortion
Dong dong dong...
As Chen Yang was deep in thought, a sudden rush of footsteps echoed from the stairwell.
Chen Yang and Caiyun both looked over and saw a store clerk panting heavily as he ran up, gasping for breath and saying, "Boss lady, it’s not good. A group of people came downstairs to cause trouble. They want you to pay for breach of contract."
"Huh? Breach of contract?"
Hearing the clerk’s words, Caiyun’s face was full of astonishment.
"Yes, that group is aggressive, and none of them are pushovers," the clerk said, flustered.
At this moment, Caiyun was completely stunned, not knowing at all what was happening.
Chen Yang was equally taken aback, not understanding how Caiyun got caught up in a breach of contract situation.
"Sis, who did you breach a contract with?"
Chen Yang asked in surprise.
Caiyun answered even more surprised, "I haven’t! I haven’t signed a contract with anyone."
"No contract? How is that possible?"
Chen Yang thought for a moment, "Let’s go down and have a look."
"Mm, okay."
With Chen Yang around, Caiyun felt no panic at all, because she knew that as long as Chen Yang was there, nothing would go wrong.
So she followed Chen Yang and the clerk downstairs.
As soon as they reached downstairs, they immediately heard a group of people yelling inside the restaurant.
When they got to the door, they saw a group of thugs causing trouble.
"Get your boss lady out here, this matter must be explained today, or this small store won’t be safe."
"Damn it, don’t you have a phone? Call your boss lady right now! Damn!"
"A bunch of idiots working here? Is Caiyun also an idiot for hiring you?"
...
The thugs kept shouting.
Hearing these words, Caiyun’s anger surged as she rushed straight out.
"What are you saying? Can’t you speak cleaner words?"
As soon as the thugs saw someone standing up to them, their anger also flared immediately, but when they looked up and saw Caiyun, their anger turned into a sneer.
"Oh, I wondered who it was, turns out to be Boss Lady Yang," a thug said with an oddly sarcastic tone.
Caiyun, full of rage, walked up to the thugs and shouted, "What are you doing? Smashing up the store in broad daylight? Do you believe I’ll call the police?"
"Haha, go ahead, call them. You’ll save us on phone bills," the thug smiled slightly, showing no fear of Caiyun’s threat to call the police.
He also sneered, "We didn’t come to smash up the store, we’re here to properly ask you for breach of contract and compensation fees. See who the police will help when they come."
The thugs were outrageously arrogant, as if they were justified in showing up like this.
"Breach and compensation fees? I don’t even know you, let alone have any contract with you," Caiyun said, very puzzled.
"Heh, Boss Yang, you may not know us, but surely you know Boss Xiao?" the thug said with a sly smile.
As soon as Caiyun heard the name Boss Xiao, her expression immediately changed.
"Bald Xiao? Did he send you?"
"That’s right, Boss Xiao sent us."
The thugs openly admitted it.
Caiyun also laughed, "I know Bald Xiao, and we’ve cooperated before, but there’s no contract whatsoever."
"Oh? You claim there’s no contract, so there’s no contract?"
As soon as Caiyun’s words ended, Xiao Tuzi’s voice rang out from outside the door.
Upon hearing Xiao Tuzi’s voice, the thugs knowingly made way, allowing Xiao Tuzi to come forward.
This Xiao Tuzi was the bald guy met at noon in the fishing village, and was also Caiyun’s former business partner!
"Caiyun, you sure have a short memory, forgetting the contract we signed? Business is too big for you now, flying high?" Xiao Tuzi came forward and shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Caiyun’s anger became restrained.
"Xiao Tuzi, you must have a good conscience. When did I sign a contract with you?"
"Deny it? Heh, I have evidence!"
Xiao Tuzi sneered, then pulled out a few documents from his bag, "This is the contract between us, clearly stating our cooperative contracting relationship, your fish restaurant, all the fish are contracted by me, for a term of five years, see for yourself."
Xiao Tuzi righteously declared with what seemed like a genuine attitude.
Seeing his demeanor, Caiyun was a bit stunned, beginning to doubt herself.
Could she have really signed a contract and forgotten about it?
Feeling uncertain, Caiyun reached out, took the contract, and reviewed it carefully.
The contents of the contract were nothing special, just some basic contract terms.
What was interesting was the signature below.
The handwriting didn’t match at all, and even running a hand over it, there was a faint ink smell, evidently this contract was freshly forged, the ink wasn’t even dry.
Caiyun couldn’t help but laugh and showed it to Chen Yang.
Seeing the wet ink, Chen Yang also laughed.
"What are you laughing at? The black and white words are right here, you still don’t want to admit it?" Xiao Tuzi shouted loudly.
"Boss Yang, we are reasonable people. If you maintain a good attitude, we can still talk, but if this escalates, it won’t be good for anyone," a thug chimed in.
Though already seeing through their tricks, Caiyun didn’t want to expose them directly.
"Oh, you want to talk? Then let’s hear your terms," Caiyun said.
Seeing Caiyun say this, Xiao Tuzi thought he had succeeded.
So he unkindly said, "It’s simple, you have two options: First, continue to honor the contract, but at my current price, thirteen dollars per pound."
"Second, you breach the contract, pay me fifty thousand dollars for breach, plus three hundred thousand in losses, and this matter will be over, unrelated in the future."
"Is that all?"
"Yes, that’s all," Xiao Tuzi nodded.
After listening, Caiyun burst into laughter, her expression very amused.
Originally smug, when seeing Caiyun laughing heartily, Xiao Tuzi’s expression immediately turned cold again.
"What do you mean? Are you taking this as a joke?"
Xiao Tuzi asked coldly.
Caiyun halted her laughter and reprimanded, "Xiao Tuzi, I’m laughing at your wishful thinking. You come to extort me with a forged contract? Do you believe I’ll call the police?"
Xiao Tuzi, feeling guilty, grew a bit flustered upon hearing the word police.
However, the thugs beside him seemed unfazed, still looking calm.
"Heh? Call the police? So you have no intention of admitting it?" the thug said coldly.
"I never signed such a contract, why should I admit it?" Caiyun, completely unafraid, said solemnly.
"Heh, fine, very well, then don’t blame us for being rude."
The thug sneered again, then directly turned and said, "Brothers, help yourselves! Take what you like! Everything else, smash it!"
"Alright!"
At the thug’s signal, the other thugs instantly sprang into action, each pulling out their weapons, ready to wreck the place!
In this tense moment, Chen Yang naturally stood up!
