After the system ran, I took off with my family
Chapter 245 Exposed
"Call the shopkeeper out!"
"Where are the people? Come out quickly!"
“…”
All the customers in the store were shouting and some of them who had already opened a few pieces of scraps were even more excited. They grabbed the shop assistants and started to question them. The situation was almost out of control.
The three stone-cutting masters, realizing that something was not right, hid in a corner and dared not say a word.
In the backyard, Manager Gao, who was still unaware of the situation, listened to the bustling sound coming from the shop in front, put down the account book in his hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. It seemed that he was destined to make a fortune today.
"Shopkeeper, it's not good!"
“Oh no…”
A young man with disheveled clothes ran into the backyard in a panic, holding his hair.
"Why are you panicking?" Shopkeeper Gao frowned when he saw him like this, "Is it possible that the raw materials in the shop are not enough again? Just move more..."
"No... No... Boss." The clerk panted, "It was the customers in the shop who caused trouble!"
"What?" The proud and smug Shopkeeper Gao slammed the table when he heard someone was causing trouble. "Let's see who dares to cause trouble. This is outrageous!"
After saying this, he hurried to the shop in front without waiting for the waiter to report the situation.
The young man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly chased after him to explain the situation, but Manager Gao walked so fast that he was out of the backyard in a blink of an eye.
"It's over. It was Master Du who said there was something wrong with our raw materials! Master Du is not so easy to fool..."
The young man was extremely anxious. He had been working in the store for more than a year and knew some of the shady things going on in the store. If this matter were to get out, they would have to pack up and go home.
Here, Shopkeeper Gao walked into the shop through the back door that connected to the backyard. Seeing the bustling scene in the shop, he frowned unconsciously.
"Everyone, Manager Gao is here!"
Some sharp-eyed customer saw him and called out, and immediately other people in the shop swarmed over.
"Manager Gao, there is something wrong with the raw materials in your shop. You have to give us an explanation!"
"That's it!"
"Give us an explanation!"
Is there something wrong with the raw material? Shopkeeper Gao's face was stiff for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal, and then he pressed his hands and said kindly, "Don't get excited, everyone! Calm down and listen to me!"
"Everyone, is there any misunderstanding here? Did everyone make a mistake?
I, Gao Cheng, can guarantee that the raw materials in our store are absolutely fine!
Besides, my shop has been open in the jade market for many years. If there were any problems, it would have been closed long ago. Today, everyone must have been taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives."
In his opinion, it must be people from other shops in the Jade Market who saw that his shop was doing booming business and came here deliberately to stir up trouble.
"..." When everyone heard his words, they looked a little strange and turned to look at Du Yusheng in the crowd.
"Humph, someone with ulterior motives!"
Du Yusheng walked out of the crowd and said, "Manager Gao, I didn't expect that you are not only good at business, but also good at talking."
"This...Mr. Du! Where do you get this from?" Gao Cheng's heart skipped a beat when he saw Du Yunsheng walk out of the crowd to answer.
"Manager Gao, can you guarantee with your life that the stone is not tampered with?"
Du Yunsheng didn't want to argue with him, so he went straight to the point and asked.
"I..." Gao Cheng's heart sank. Everyone else stared at him, as if waiting for his answer.
After a moment of silence, Gao Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "There is indeed no problem with this stone."
This damn Du Yunsheng, why does he have to pick a fight with him today?
This is a problem. Although Du Yunsheng is just a wealthy businessman, he has a daughter who is a princess in the capital! In Jin'an Prefecture, even the prefect has to be courteous to him.
Du Yunsheng didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing that he still refused to admit it, he took a piece of waste stone from the servant beside him and said sternly: "This stone of yours is not raw material without a window, but waste material from repairing the window after it was opened!"
"what?"
His words were like a drop of water dropped into a frying pan, boiling instantly.
Gao Chengze's face turned pale instantly. He...he actually knew...
"Master Du, what is going on?"
"Yeah, how can you tell it's been repaired?"
Everyone asked questions at once, eager to know the answer.
"Everyone, listen to me." Du Yunsheng glanced at Gao Cheng, who looked flustered, raised the waste rock in his hand, and gestured with his hands.
"Please look, there is a lighter mark in this corner. This is the mark of repair."
People who were close by took a closer look and indeed saw the mark. The mark was a little faint and could not be seen without careful inspection.
"In fact, their shop does much more than this." Du Yunsheng took another piece of stone from the servant and pointed at a small green dot on the stone.
"This is another trick they used!"
"What? What is this little green dot?" Everyone was shocked and confused.
"This is…"
"Wait a minute! Master Du! Let's talk it out!" Gao Cheng interrupted Du Yunsheng in a panic, then he walked up to Du Yunsheng with his clothes in his hand, pleading in his voice, "Master Du, my men were foolish in this matter, I will teach them a lesson later, please forgive them this time, I have some good tea, shall we go back to the backyard and try it?"
"Manager Gao, at this point, do you still want to play dumb?" Du Yunsheng pulled his hand away. "How can you be conscientious to sell scraps that have been opened as raw materials?"
After that, he looked at everyone and continued, "This little blue dot is the mark they put on these problematic stones. You can go to the stone-cutting stall and see if most of the waste stones have this mark.
Of course, you can also go to the pile of raw materials over there and pick out a few pieces with blue dots on them, and you will know after unwrapping them.”
"Okay, let's go find him now. If it's true, I'll report it to the authorities! Let the soldiers arrest this profiteer!"
"... "
The angry crowd immediately dispersed and soon found a lot of marked woolen materials.
Under the coercion of the crowd, the stone-cutting master cut the stone tremblingly, not daring to look up at the ugly face of his boss.
As more and more waste rocks were uncovered on the ground, everyone's faces became more and more ugly.
"You're such a profiteer! That's how you cheated us out of our money! You profiteer, give me back my money!"
Some people couldn't suppress their anger and rushed to Gao Cheng, pointing at his nose and cursing at him. Then, more and more people surrounded him.
"Refund! Refund!"
"You profiteer! You will die a miserable death..."
In the chaos, someone took the lead and punched Gao Cheng. After he screamed, more and more punches fell on him...
