42: They're all big shots, do you think they'd let you run wild here?
Qin Yun stretched out his hands to calm everyone's excitement.
"Don't argue, everyone take it slow!"
"I've already found someone to restore the harley motorcycle and the ming dynasty furniture. If you want to buy them, just wait a few days."
"There are many other good things in the shop, you can take a look."
As Qin Yun spoke, everyone in the shop quickly quieted down.
Although they couldn't buy what they wanted now, it was only a few days, and they could afford to wait.
Besides, there were many other good things in Qin Yun's shop.
This showed that Qin Yun was quite capable.
Everyone was very willing to build a good relationship with Qin Yun.
With so many wealthy big shots, Julia and the others began to get busy.
Julia was the cashier at the front desk, while Dewey patrolled the shop.
Qin Yun called Li Qiang to take out the gold nugget and the black cat mummy from the safe.
Qin Yun had already written down the prices for the items displayed in the shop.
As for the gold nugget and the black cat mummy, Qin Yun and Julia had also agreed on specific prices.
The Collectors in the shop began to discuss the antiques on the shelves.
These items were just small exquisite pieces; they had some interest, but their desire to buy wasn't very strong.
They planned to buy a few pieces casually to curry favor with Qin Yun, laying the groundwork for buying the harley motorcycle and antique furniture later.
However, after seeing the gold nugget and the black cat mummy placed in the glass counter...
Everyone went crazy.
They were all experts in the collecting world and quickly determined that the two items were treasures.
"How much is the gold nugget?"
"Is this really an Egypt black cat mummy?"
"How many years of history does this mummy have? Who was its owner?"
"Is the black cat mummy for sale too?"
...While everyone observed closely, they couldn't help but inquire about the price.
They didn't expect such treasures to be in this small shop.
In their hearts, they placed Qin Yun in an even higher position.
This fiery atmosphere drove the shop's business.
Julia and the others all became busy.
While Qin Yun was explaining to everyone, he saw a familiar figure walk into the shop.
It was exactly The Black Young Man he had fired.
Qin Yun gave Dewey a look.
Dewey also noticed The Black Young Man, and seeing Qin Yun's signal, he immediately nodded in understanding.
He stepped forward, grabbed the black man's collar, lifted him up, and walked toward the door.
The Black Young Man seemed prepared.
While suspended in mid-air, he waved his hands exaggeratedly and shouted loudly.
"Assault! Someone is hitting me!"
"Look, someone in the shop is actually attacking without reason. Is there no law?"
"Let go, I can't breathe, I'm going to die!"
The black man coughed dryly a few times, then clutched his neck as if he couldn't catch his breath.
Dewey was dumbfounded; what on earth was going on?
Fearing an accident might happen to The Black Young Man, he let go of the collar.
Then he turned to look at Qin Yun, waiting for further instructions.
Hearing someone shouting so miserably, the crowd quickly turned to see what was happening.
They were very surprised to see a black man lying on the ground shouting.
"Everyone, don't mind him. This person was an employee of our shop before, but he was light-fingered, so I fired him."
"He must be here to cause trouble on purpose this time!"
Seeing that The Black Young Man's performance had attracted everyone's attention, Qin Yun quickly explained to them.
The black man lying on the ground was like a shrew, rolling around while shouting.
"Assault! Someone in the shop dares to hit people!"
"This is a crooked shop! Can anyone stop this barbaric behavior?"
"Murder! Someone help!"
The black man wasn't hurt, but he kept shouting toward the door.
It was as if he was signaling to people outside.
The people in the shop saw the black man making a scene on the ground and were momentarily confused about the situation.
At this moment, a group of guys in uniforms rushed into the shop aggressively.
They blocked the door and looked at everyone in the shop with ill intent.
"What happened here?"
A Tattooed strong man with a tattoo on his arm stepped forward to ask.
The Black Young Man quickly scrambled up and ran behind the Tattooed strong man.
"The shop employee hit me."
"If you hadn't come, they would have beaten me to death!"
The Black Young Man trembled all over, as if he had suffered great torture.
Anyone who had seen the whole process would surely remark on this person's great acting skills.
"Who hit him? Who is the owner here?"
The Tattooed strong man's face turned cold as he asked directly.
He squinted his eyes, looking very arrogant.
"I just grabbed his collar, I didn't hit him, he..."
Dewey, fearing he would bring trouble to the shop, quickly explained.
"Your words don't count. Who is the boss here?"
The Tattooed strong man waved his hand, interrupting Dewey.
"I am the boss."
Qin Yun saw that they were together, so he didn't explain much.
The Tattooed strong man laughed a few times, pushed through the crowd, and walked directly to Qin Yun.
"You're the boss?"
"Why do you allow your employees to hit people? Is this how you do business?"
"We are from the Community Committee, and I'm responsible for the security of this area. Do you know you've broken the law?"
The Tattooed strong man's tone was full of contempt and threats.
He stared straight at Qin Yun, arms crossed, tapping his right foot repeatedly, looking like he had Qin Yun right where he wanted him.
"It's not quite reasonable to say I broke the law without investigating clearly."
"There's surveillance here. Talk after you've seen it."
Qin Yun wasn't afraid of these people, but he feared they would use the situation as a pretext to make a scene and disturb business, so he acted very restrained.
The Tattooed Big Man sneered.
"Surveillance? What surveillance?"
"I have the final say here!"
"Someone reported your shop for violations, and now you're hitting people. You're truly lawless!"
"I order you to suspend operations, pay a three thousand dollar fine and a five thousand dollar security deposit. You can only open after the rectification is complete and I give my permission!"
"Otherwise, I will submit a report to the committee to have you evicted!"
After the Tattooed strong man finished speaking, he saw that no one was moved.
"What are you looking at? Get out of here quickly, this place is closing!"
After scolding the customers, he glared fiercely at Qin Yun.
"How, not satisfied?"
"On my turf, follow my rules honestly, or I'll make sure you suffer the consequences!"
Thinking about how the shop owner would leave dejectedly, not only venting his subordinate's anger but also earning a large fine, the Tattooed strong man laughed loudly again.
The Collectors in the shop also understood what was going on by now.
It turned out these people were using the committee's backing to extort money.
Being unreasonable was one thing, but they were even bullying them.
They couldn't stand it to begin with, and now they were outright furious.
"The Community Committee is nothing! Let alone one of its dogs!"
"I am the manager of Christies in Borton City. Who do you think you are?"
"I am the butler of the Wendell Family. Since when do you have the final say in Borton City?"
"I am Councilman Mark. Who gave you this kind of authority? It seems this neighborhood's committee needs to be changed!"
"I am from the Hubert family. Do you have a death wish!"
...Everyone hadn't wanted to lower themselves to the level of such a small character.
But it was one thing for this person to disturb their shopping; he even dared to threaten them. He really was tired of living!
