Chapter 1410 - Continuing the Scheme (4)
Chapter 1410: Continuing the Scheme (4)
Everyone was conflicted.
However, there was someone who wasn’t conflicted at all. It was Fangzheng!
Fangzheng waved his huge pen and directly wrote 9999! Then, he overturned the piece of paper.
However, when Fang Yunjing saw it, she immediately leaned over and whispered, “Are you dumb? Why did you write so much?”
Fangzheng smiled. “It’s fine.”
“Didn’t you say you don’t have money? That you don’t even have money for your meals?” Fang Yunjing asked angrily.
Fangzheng was about to say something when Li Shaocong walked over. The two of them could only stop talking.
Fang Yunjing whispered to Red Boy, “Your father is so silly. Don’t you care?”
Red Boy said with an adorable look, “Have you seen a son of my age be able to control a silly father?”
Fang Yunjing was speechless…
Li Shaocong did not come to Fangzheng first. Instead, he flipped open the first person’s paper and looked at the number on it before shaking his head. “Are you sure that’s the number?”
The middle-aged woman’s face turned a little red, but she bit the bullet and nodded. “Yes.”
Li Shaocong said, “You’re quite generous. What do you do?”
The middle-aged woman said, “I’m a stay at home mom. I’ve retired.”
“You’ve retired, but you are treating me to such an expensive meal? Are you sure?” Li Shaocong asked.
The middle-aged woman said, “Yes.”
Li Shaocong seemed to have expected better from her, but he also seemed to be angry. However, he was so angry that he wanted to laugh. He patted the paper and said, “Let me tell you, I’m not joking. I will really go. When I really go, are you really willing to spend so much money to entertain me?”
The woman fell silent when she heard that.
Li Shaocong continued, “I’ll give you one more chance to change it.”
There was nothing wrong with what he said. Li Shaocong seemed to be thinking for the woman, but Fangzheng narrowed his eyes. Was he really doing this for the woman’s sake? It was obvious that he was using the audience’s influence to force the woman! He wanted to force the woman to the edge of a cliff!
With so many people watching, and so many people from the same group looking at her, she stood forward and wrote down a number. In the end, she had to change it? Wouldn’t she be admitting that she was bragging? That she was lying? Wouldn’t it be embarrassing?
As expected, the woman’s face turned red. “I’m not changing it. This is the amount!”
Li Shaocong nodded. “Alright, that’s all. Now, take out the money and place it on the table. Let me see if you have the ability to treat me to this meal. Let me say the same thing. I, Li Shaocong, only play with honest people. If we play games about face, I don’t think we can be friends.”
The woman was stunned when she heard that. How was she to take out so much money?
The woman said, “I don’t have that much cash on me.”
Li Shaocong said, “No problem. We accept cards here, or WeChat and Alipay. You can pass it to me. I’ll exchange it for cash and place it here. After that, you can get cash or have it transferred.”
There was a lot of sweat on the woman’s forehead. Even though Li Shaocong didn’t say that he wanted her money, to produce that much money… How could she afford it? If she could, she wouldn’t be in a low-priced tour group.
When Li Shaocong saw the woman’s reaction, he slammed the table and said, “You can’t take it out, right? We’re all adults. Sister, why go to such lengths?”
With that said, Li Shaocong walked to the next person.
When Li Shaocong walked to the next person, the remaining people secretly changed their numbers.
Fangzheng smiled when he saw this. He remained motionless as he waited silently.
The second was a man of old age. He obviously didn’t write much and appeared very confident. However, Li Shaocong still said the same words. The man took out 999 yuan and placed it on the table. “And then?”
Li Shaocong said, “Are you sure you want to know what follows next?”
The old man nodded.
Li Shaocong said, “Sure, what will you think if I take the money away? If I take it away, I won’t return it to you. I might even run away. What would you do?”
The old man was amused. “You have such a huge shop here. Is there a need to scam this bit of money from me?”
Li Shaocong shook his head and said, “Let’s not talk about this. I’m being hypothetical. If I leave with the money, I won’t give it back to you. What will you do? Will you still dare to place the money here and let me take it?”
The old man fell silent…
Li Shaocong nodded. “I understand. Keep the money well.”
With that said, Li Shaocong walked to the next person proudly. The next few rounds ended up stuck at the last round of questions. No matter what Li Shaocong said, everyone still hesitated to give Li Shaocong their money.
When he arrived in front of Fangzheng, Li Shaocong clearly turned anxious. He smiled and looked at Fangzheng with a domineering look. When he picked up the piece of paper, he frowned. “Are you sure?”
Fangzheng smiled. “Of course. My friend is here. Of course, I need to entertain him with the best.”
“Then…” Li Shaocong was about to say something.
Fangzheng signaled to Red Boy. Without another word, Red Boy took out a stack of money and placed it on the counter.
Everyone got a shock when they saw this. Which rich child was this? Why did he have so much money? This adult was really daring. Wasn’t he afraid of the child losing this much money?
Fang Yunjing was also given a fright. She never expected Red Boy to be the one to take out the money.
Fang Yunjing turned anxious, but at this moment, what could a girl do? Step forward? Even if she stepped forward, there was nothing she could do to stop the development. She narrowed her eyes and gritted her teeth. She secretly took out her cell phone to send Ma Juan her location and asked her to call the police.
Soon, Ma Juan replied, “OK! A few minutes!”
Fang Yunjing heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she prayed inwardly, “Please make it be a scam. Otherwise, I’d have made a false report. That would be terrible.”
Li Shaocong did not expect the young man in front of him to be so rich. There was sweat on his forehead and his smile could not be suppressed. Based on his experience, this man before him was definitely the most ideal fat sheep!
Hence, Li Shaocong said, “If I take it away…”
“Just like the grandpa said, you have such a huge store away, you can leave but the store won’t be able to escape,” said Fangzheng.
Li Shaocong said, “That’s not necessarily the case. Perhaps I’ve colluded with them and acted out a scene?”
Fangzheng smiled. “Then I’ll call the police. I trust Li Shaocong, not a cheat.”
When Li Shaocong heard this, his smile instantly turned stiff. It was as though he was saying: F**k, why isn’t he playing according to the rules? No one says that!
Li Shaocong laughed dryly and said, “Alright, I like pragmatic people. Now, I’ll take the money.”
With that said, Li Shaocong gestured for Little Chen to take Fangzheng’s money from the table. Then, Li Shaocong said, “Are you afraid?”
Fangzheng returned with a question. “Are you afraid?”
Li Shaocong smiled helplessly and said, “I like your personality. Alright, let’s not talk about it anymore. Little Chen, bring this guest to my office for a seat. I’ll personally entertain him later.”
