Chapter 142

What are you afraid of at the opening ceremony?
What they were afraid of was that some gangsters would come to make trouble, and Su Mo happened to meet them. Moreover, this group of gangsters was famous throughout Dongshi.

This group of hooligans are known as the Justice Gang. Under the guise of maintaining the stability of Dongshi, they make troubles in Dongshi all day long. Every time they are arrested by the city magistrate and sent to the government, someone will redeem them with money. That's all, whether it's big or small, since they can collect money, the Yamen's arresters don't want to be troublesome.

They knew very well that the big businessmen in Dongshi were the ones who paid to redeem these gangsters. In order to suppress the small businessmen who exploited Dongshi, they raised this group of gangsters.

City Magistrate Liu Tian also knows the inside story, so as long as these gangsters don't cause too much trouble, he won't care too much. Although there are many small businessmen, taking care of the interests of big businessmen is the most important, and those big businessmen The businessmen are not trying to kill them all, but just to make those small businessmen obey the rules.

Opposite Su's soap shop is the Fang family's gouache shop. In a room on the second floor of the shop, Fang Yi's father, Fang Zhimin, stood in front of the window, drinking tea and smiling sinisterly: "Everyone, what do you think Su Mo How will you deal with this incident?"

In addition to Fang Zhimin, there are also several big businessmen from Taikang County in the room. These people have no contact with Su Mo. They know that Fang Zhimin has hooked up with Liu Shixian. They have been currying favor with the Fang family in recent times. I heard from Fang Zhimin that there is something going on here today. But look, they are all here.

The businessmen stood in front of the window, looking at Su's Soap Shop, which had become a bit messy for a while, and they were all talking about it.

"What else can we do? Just spend money and settle the matter. No one wants to cause trouble in such an occasion."

"Haha, after all, Hou Qing is just a kid with a dirty mouth. If he wasn't the son of the Wailang family, a member of the Ministry of Industry, how could he be able to get around in Dongshi?"

"Yes, I really don't know why he wants to cooperate with this Su Mo. Is it just because of the value of the soap in Su Mo's hand?"

"The soap is indeed valuable, but the market cannot be opened, and the soap can only rot in his hands. Hou Qing has no experience in selling gouache."

"The young people of today! They underestimate our seniors too much. The business world in Song Dynasty is not so easy to mess with! We have to teach them a lesson."

……

Listening to these people's words, Fang Zhimin's mouth showed a sinister smile, and he said proudly: "Everyone, you know the value of this soap. Once it enters the gouache market in Taikang County, we will be in big trouble, so we must Band together and hold back the bar soap momentum, the best bar soap recipes you can get.

I promise you again that as long as Su Mo can be squeezed out of the market in Taikang County, and after I get the soap formula in Su Mo's hand, I can share [-]% of the benefits with you, and I only need to avenge my son. "

Although Su Mo invited many big businessmen, not many were in the gouache business. Fang Zhimin was able to invite so many businessmen in the gouache business because they received Fang Zhimin's guarantee that they would get the soap formula and hand it over. give them.

Otherwise, how could these people get together and deal with Su Mo on behalf of Fang Zhimin?
Businessmen are people who do not see benefits.

They were wary of Hou Qing's identity, but in the face of huge interests, they could take this risk. Anyway, they didn't show up, and Hou Qing couldn't find them.

……

"Su Mo, you are in trouble. Do you want me to help you get rid of them?"

Looking at the stage where the grand opening ceremony was about to take place, surrounded by hooligans, Luo Ming said softly, with a hint of schadenfreude in his voice.

He wasn't laughing at Su Mo, how could a few hooligans make noise on such an occasion? Looking at the people gathered here, one can tell that this is not the grand opening ceremony held by small businessmen, and all the people gathered here are prominent figures in Taikang County .

What he laughed at was that these hooligans were so ruthless that they came here to make trouble.

"Hey, who asked you to open a store here? Don't you know to inform our Justice Gang in advance?"

"That's right. How dare you open a store here without giving us the Justice Gang a greeting? Smash it!"

"Hmph, didn't you know that our Justice Gang protected this area? Smash it!"

……

The hooligans were holding wooden sticks and kept beating the ground around the stage. Several people even got on the stage and started chasing people away. The servants who were standing on the stage arranging the ceremony were so scared that they ran away from above. down.

Su Mo frowned. He saw a few familiar figures among the gangsters. They were the grass-headed snake Wang Wu who blocked the way and wanted to intercept him. This Wang Wu was also a member of the so-called Justice Gang. The status in the justice gang does not seem to be very high.

I didn't go looking for you, but you came looking for me.

Hou Qing wanted to step forward to deal with these guys, but Su Mo stopped him and said, "I'll deal with it. Today is the opening of my shop! Leave it to me!"

After saying that, he came to the front of the stage surrounded by everyone.

He looked at the dozen or so hooligans on the stage, and asked calmly: "A group of hooligans come here to make trouble, aren't you afraid that the government will arrest you?"

Su Mo's words made the hooligans who were shouting on the stage turn their heads. The leader of the hooligans looked at Su Mo and said jokingly: "You are Su Mo, the owner of Su's soap shop. I don't know if you open a shop in Dongshi. Do you want to say hello to our Justice Gang?"

"It's him?"

Wang Wu, who was hiding behind the gangster, underestimated Su Mo softly when he saw Su Mo.

Su Mo smiled and said: "Yes, I am Su Mo, the owner of Su's Soap Shop. You gangsters dare to come here to cause trouble. Aren't you afraid of government sanctions?"

"Hahaha! The government? I'm afraid you don't know who I am! I'm Hu Cai, the leader of the Justice Gang!" The gangster leader laughed.

Damn it, you are not even afraid of the government, so arrogant?

Su Mo couldn't help but admire that this Hu was really awesome. A little gangster was not even afraid of the government, and he said it so blatantly. Didn't the Yamen lose face?
At this time, Hu Cai continued to yell: "Don't say that I didn't warn you, you can't open today's grand opening ceremony, get out of here quickly, or I will smash your shabby shop, even if the arrest is here, today you Don’t even think about going ahead with this opening ceremony.”

"Ha ha!"

A smile appeared on the corner of Su Mo's mouth, and then he suddenly turned around and said, "Catcher Wang, do you hear that, some people don't take your yamen seriously!"

Su Mo's voice fell, and there was a loud voice from the crowd in the distance: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, the government will handle the case!"

Although the noisy voices were getting closer, Wang Jun, the head catcher from Taikang County, led seven or eight arresters, and rushed to the front of the stage quickly, attracting the eyes of the guests around the stage and even in the soap shop.

"The arrests from Taikang County are here quickly, and the idlers wait to retreat, get out of the way!"

"King...Wang Jun!"

Seeing the sudden appearance of the police officers, Hu Cai was stunned for a moment and even started to stutter when he spoke.
