950 Looking for the Stall Owner
“It’s time to sell buns! Meat buns!”
Jiang Ming pushed the food cart to an empty space and stopped. He looked around.
People were coming and going around, and it was extremely lively.
When they saw Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi, the expressions of the people around them became strange.
Jiang Ming found it strange, but he did not think too much about it.
It was probably their first time setting up a stall.
“Hey, who allowed you to do business here? This is my territory!”
Beside him, a bearded vendor pulled a cart toward Jiang Ming.
“Go find another place to set up your stall.”
Jiang Ming casually glanced at the stall owner and turned his attention to the passersby.
He had heard that the vendor selling the meat buns would wander around to sell them. He had looked around, but he did not see the vendor.
The weather was hot, and Zhu Asi kept fanning himself as he kept complaining.
“The weather is really hot.”
Seeing that the two of them did not pay attention to him, the stall owner immediately shouted angrily, “Get lost!” Find a place yourself!”
The loud roar attracted Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi’s attention.
Zhu Asi was originally feeling restless because of the hot weather.
“First come, first served. Don’t you understand?” He glared at the vendor.
The stall owner was not afraid at all. Instead, he straightened his back and said, “Do you know who is behind me?”
“I was wondering why you were so arrogant. So, there’s someone behind you,” Zhu Asi said sarcastically.
Jiang Ming instantly understood the reason for the strange gazes of the surrounding vendors.
After all this time, it was because this was the vendor’s fixed territory.
Perhaps this stall owner was the one selling the meat buns.
Jiang Ming’s heart skipped a beat. “I’m really sorry,” he said hurriedly. “We’ve taken your place. As an apology, we’ll buy a few buns from you.”
“Heh, do you think you’re worthy of eating my buns?”
Unexpectedly, the stall owner became even more disdainful. He waved his hand like he was driving a dog away. “Go away. Don’t affect my business.”
“I must eat one of your buns today.”
Zhu Asi was so angry that he went up and opened the steamer.
Steaming buns appeared in front of everyone, and the stall owner hurriedly stopped them.
Zhu Asi refused to give in. He raised the steamer.
“Damn it, if it wasn’t for the fact that I don’t know spiritual techniques, I would have killed you!”
The stall owner was about to go crazy. Zhu Asi’s teasing almost made his head explode.
Jiang Ming took the opportunity to go to the steamer and planned to grab a bun to take a look.
His premonition told him that there might be gold in this bun.
“How dare you bully a stall owner!”
At this moment, a ray of light flashed in front of Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi.
It was extremely fast. Before the two of them could come back to their senses, Jiang Ming found that Zhu Asi had been struck down, and the lid was back on top of the steamer.
Jiang Ming turned around and saw a man wearing a jade crown and a white robe.
The man had delicate features and clear eyes.
At this moment, he glared at Jiang Ming with displeasure.
Jiang Ming rolled his eyes.
“What are you staring at? This stall owner is talking nonsense. What’s wrong with us punishing him?”
Unexpectedly, the stall owner began to put on an act. He sat on the ground with tears flowing from his eyes.
“I have to support my family,” he said bitterly. “I have more than ten children. The oldest is still underage, and the youngest is still nursing. I originally wanted to work hard to earn money to support them, but I didn’t expect to be threatened and bullied by evil people. I’m just a commoner. Why would the heavens treat me like this?”
Jiang Ming did not hesitate to step forward and kick the stall owner, causing him to fall to the ground.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
The young master held back his anger and wanted to beat Jiang Ming up, but he was stopped by Zhu Asi.
“Where do you want to go?” Zhu Asi smiled playfully.
“Do you know who I am?” the young master asked angrily. “I am the seventh young master of the Xiaguo Kingdom. Even the current king has to respect me.”
“Oh? Why didn’t I know about this?”
Jiang Ming looked up and sized up the person in front of him.
“He’s the real seventh young master, Xu Chuanqi,” the stall owner said. “He helps the poor and the weak. His reputation is widespread.”
“Did you hear that?” Xu Chuanqi snorted coldly. “Hurry up and let go! You scoundrels, not only did you bully the stall owner, but you were also rude to me. I should have taken you to the county magistrate.”
“I’m afraid that the county magistrate will have to bow down to us when he sees us.”
Zhu Asi did not even look at Xu Chuanqi.
Xu Chuanqi was like a brainless person. He was just acting like a fool and did not look at the facts at all.
“Nonsense. You guys are quite bold. ”
Xu Chuanqi was disdainful. He went forward to help the stall owner up and said to him carefully, “Sir, we can’t reason with these people. I’ll help you push the stall elsewhere. I’ll buy all your buns.”
“Thank you.”
The stall owner pretended to be grateful, but he had other plans in his heart.
When they reached a safe place, they would find an excuse to not sell the gold, and all the gold would be saved.
Xu Chuanqi was easy to talk to.
“I didn’t say that you could leave.”
Jiang Ming opened his folding fan.
Zhu Asi took out some silver from his pocket.
“We’re not making things difficult for you. We just want to buy a bun. You can leave after that”
As he spoke, he threw the silver at the stall owner.
Xu Chuanqi was furious.
“How can you throw silver at people? People like you don’t deserve to eat this old man’s cooking! Sir, don’t listen to him. We’ll leave now.”
He quickly pushed the stall, and the stall owner followed him. Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi quickly stopped them.
“Aren’t you a kind person?” Zhu Asi asked lightly. “Are you going to walk right in front of us?”
“The two of you are worthless. Even if you die, no one will care.”
Xu Chuanqi continued to walk forward.
“What a good way to say that our lives are meaningful.”
Jiang Ming stepped forward and waved his fan. Xu Chuanqi immediately fainted.
“That’s all.”
He glanced at Xu Chuanqi.
The people around them immediately shouted.
Seeing that he had no one to rely on, the stall owner panicked. He turned around and wanted to escape, but he was pulled back by Jiang Ming.
“Hand them over to the people of the Supreme Court. I need to know the result by today.”
Jiang Ming instructed Zhu Asi.
Zhu Asi nodded and left with the vendor.
Jiang Ming immediately cut open the buns inside and found that there was indeed gold, so he took the stall away.
“We can summon the prime minister now.”
When the results came out, Jiang Ming smiled and waved his hand at the servant beside him.
