Chapter 1698: Chapter 1784: Shaking the Mountain and Frightening the Tiger
"Where does your confidence come from, calling yourself Brother Xing? Do you really measure up?"
Indeed, Hua Manlou, who is extremely confident and somewhat arrogant, wouldn’t easily let someone claim to be Brother Xing in front of him. This move, Shaking the Mountain and Frightening the Tiger, made Huang Lixing somewhat embarrassed as he looked at the young man in front of him and spoke with a slightly awkward expression.
"You..." Huang Lixing looked at this kid, thinking to himself, damn, he’s actually a martial artist, no wonder he’s so cocky.
"Little Huang, let me tell you, your people are cooking the books, even messing up the money. I say, for such a big company, can you continue to operate like this? It’s infuriating. You’re really letting me down, you know that?"
Hua Manlou had the look of a hero who sees injustice and shouts out loud. Although Huang Lixing wanted to explode, upon realizing the mistake involved money, he was a bit embarrassed. Though they’re all not particularly good people, there’s still one principle of doing business: don’t be stupid enough to offend all your customers. And indeed, incorrectly calculating the bill was a mistake on their part, so he quickly grabbed a calculator and started calculating. After finishing, he frowned and looked at the accountant.
"What’s wrong with you? You mess up the calculations every time. Do you intend to keep your job?"
Huang Lixing said seriously, and as he finished, the accountant’s head broke out in a sweat, thinking, damn, screwed up again. Can they stop putting me in such a tight spot?
"See, I told you your calculations were wrong. Damn, I’m a top student; multiplying three-digit numbers by three-digit numbers is a breeze for me!"
At this moment, Hua Manlou felt even more justified. To him, this guy is an idiot; such a big restaurant can’t even handle such a simple problem, it’s really beyond understanding.
"Slap!"
A slap swung over, and Huang Lixing slapped the accountant so hard he spun around in place, almost exploding with anger.
"You idiot, how many times have you messed up the calculations? It should clearly be 650,000, and you calculate 520,000. If this continues, who is going to bear the loss?"
"Pfft!"
Su Xuan couldn’t help but feel a bit depressed, thinking, damn, was this a monkey hired to be funny? The guy’s math skills are way too poor.
Hua Manlou’s previously smug expression now radiated Killing Aura, as he considered these people to be intentionally mocking him.
"Boss, are these people doing it on purpose?"
Seeing the scene, Hu Shulin asked curiously.
"Probably not, I estimate they really need that much money; I just think that guy’s math skills make even me feel embarrassed!"
Su Xuan thought perhaps this accountant’s math was taught by the gym teacher, as they miscalculated several times in succession; this couldn’t just be described as awkward. No wonder Hua Manlou is so angry now; it clearly seems like they’re intentionally messing with him. It simply shouldn’t be a mistake that happens repeatedly, it’s just not logical!
"Are you trying to die?"
Finally, Hua Manlou had completely lost his temper, shouting out loudly. He felt these people were treating him like a super fat sheep, calculating three different prices, each higher than the last; a normal person would likely think in this direction.
"Sir, please watch your words. We are conducting business here. Our staff indeed made an error in their work. How about I give you a 10% discount, making it 540,000?"
Huang Lixing said with a grim expression. To him, his people had indeed made a mistake, but this guy is an idiot too, how could the difference between the first and last amount be over ten thousand? Who knows what this guy was thinking?
"F*** you!"
Finally, Hua Manlou had completely lost it, spinning around instantly, grabbing a chair and smashing it towards Huang Lixing’s head.
Huang Lixing, being a martial artist as well, reacted quickly, swiftly dodging backward; though the chair didn’t hit his head, it did hit his shoulder.
"You son of a b****, you dare to extort me? Today I’ll tear down your Cape of Good Hope!"
Hua Manlou naturally wanted to show off in front of the ladies, his body leaping gracefully, his folding fan snapping open with a swish. As the fan opened, his right hand swung, and the fan spun out, transforming into a Dark Shadow whizzing towards Huang Lixing.
This move had previously been used against Su Xuan, although embarrassingly the fan was destroyed at that time. Now, as the assassin unleashed it against Huang Lixing, Huang Lixing found himself in an extremely awkward situation.
With a slap sound, Huang Lixing suddenly felt something hit his face, then staggered backward, falling unintentionally backward once again. Who knows whether it was bad luck or someone doing it deliberately, but as he staggered backward, his head slammed hard into the corner of a table, right at the back of his head, a particularly crucial spot. When his head hit it, it burst like a fountain, blood gushing out, his body starting to convulse uncontrollably.
"Someone’s dead, someone’s dead!"
Upon seeing this, the others were so frightened their eyes almost fell out. This was a member of the Qingzhu Gang, and now he’s dead; the person almost collapsed at that moment.
"Damn, I barely used any force, and you’re dead!"
Hua Manlou spoke candidly; indeed, his move looked flashy, but it didn’t really contain much power; after all, it was just a casual move. To him, this Huang Lixing was just too weak; such a fool would even make him call himself Brother Xing, who knows where he got that confidence from.
Su Xuan’s mouth curled into a sly smile, knowing that those who understood him would definitely think he was involved in this incident.
"Boss, did you do it?"
Hu Shulin swallowed his saliva, thinking, damn, he’s started messing with people again. This really was done stealthily and without a trace.
At that moment, more than a dozen men quickly rushed down from the second floor, all carrying various machetes and steel pipes. Now that someone was torn apart, these folks wouldn’t even dream of escaping, especially since Huang Lixing had been involved; he was the big boss here at Cape of Good Hope, even more so a member of the Qingzhu Gang.
"Tsk tsk, you bunch of ragtag chickens, you better scram before I really lose my temper. When I do, even I scare myself!"
