Chapter 563 Beating Up Director Liu

Zhao the Scarface asked Lu Yao:

"Those people at the supply and marketing cooperative are dishonest. What kind of goods are they?"

"Sixteen antelopes, clean-cut. Nineteen pelts, with fine coats."

Without saying a word, Zhao Balai put on his coat:

"have a look?"

Lu Yao went out and together with Cao Erdan, they lifted half of the mat.

Zhao Balai came out wearing a cotton-padded coat, walked around the car, reached out and carefully touched the leather, and then looked at the antelope's teeth.

"Not bad, it's good stuff."

He withdrew his hand, rubbed it together, and breathed on it.

"What price did the supply and marketing cooperative offer you?"

Lu Yao told him about Director Liu's price.

Zhao Balai sneered, "They're really trying to squeeze every last penny out of you, like they're trying to get rid of a beggar."

He thought for a moment:

"Here's the deal: the hides, I'll get them for you. I can't guarantee top-grade hides, but I can at least get them for around four yuan a piece. The meat... it's a bit of a rip-off, whole pieces are hard to sell. I know two factory canteens and a state-run restaurant, we can split them up. The meat will be 45 cents a pound. But..."

He looked at Lu Yao: "This isn't a supply and marketing cooperative; we don't issue receipts or keep accounts. I have to give them a little something, like tea and a tip for their hard work. How about 20% for my people?"

If it's Lu Yao's own, it doesn't matter if Zhao Balaibai helps.

But this belongs to the production team, so we need to settle accounts.

Lu Yao understood.

I quickly did the math in my head.

Even if they take 20%, it's still higher than the price offered by the supply and marketing cooperative.

Zhao Balai is unconventional; if he says he can get out, he probably can.

"Okay." Lu Yao nodded. "Let's do it Zhao Ge says. Where should we unload the stuff?"

"Unload it in the backyard warehouse," Zhao Balai said readily. "Go and get someone to weigh it now."

Zhao Balai had a bunch of men under his command, and they came to help.

The leather pieces were inspected one by one and separated.

The antelopes were weighed one by one.

Zhao Balai was keeping track of numbers in a notebook, his abacus clicking away.

After finishing the calculations, he handed the notebook to Lu Yao to look at.

The total price is calculated as follows:

Nineteen pieces of leather cost 76 yuan, but after deducting the commission, the price is 60.8 yuan.

Sixteen whole sheep weigh 786 jin (approximately 398 kg), which is 353.7 yuan at 45 cents per jin. After deducting the commission, the price is 282.96 yuan.

It can be sold for a total of 353.76 yuan.

Zhao Balai gave Lu Yao a note:

"I can't pay in cash today; you'll have to wait until the goods are sold out," Zhao Balai said. "Come pick it up in three days, still here. You trust my brother, right?"

Lu Yao put away the note: "I trust you. I'll come in three days."

By the time I left the local products company's yard, it was already getting dark.

Sitting on the empty cart, Cao Erdan was still a little dazed: "It's... sold already? And for so much more than the supply and marketing cooperative?"

"Okay." Lu Yao jumped into the car. "Let's go back."

The horse-drawn carriage quickly left the local products company.

Lu Yao originally wanted to go to the police station to ask Jing Youxiang about the progress of Jing Yiming's case.

As I was walking, a round-faced man riding a bicycle looked over:

"Oh my, you really sold your own goods?"

It turned out to be Director Liu from the supply and marketing cooperative, who had taken a break from work to wander around.

He had assumed that Lu Yao and his group wouldn't be able to sell the hides, and that other supply and marketing cooperatives would offer the same price.

Besides, if they offend me, I'll drive down the prices of all the goods from Jiapigou to the ground, and see if they'll back down.

Now that they see the horse-drawn cart is empty and the goods are gone, they get anxious.

They stopped the carriage as soon as they got off:

"If you don't go anywhere, where did you sell them? Tell me, or I'm going to find your commune director. I suspect you're engaging in speculation and profiteering!"

Cao Erdan was a little scared, so he quickly came down to light a cigarette for Director Liu:

"Fourth Brother, we just want to sell more, the brigade urgently needs money for construction..."

"So you're just going to sell them however you want? Ignoring laws and regulations, huh?"

As he spoke, he grabbed the reins of the carriage.

Lu Yao sat on the carriage shaft, coldly watching Director Liu:

"Loosen the reins, don't make yourself uncomfortable."

Director Liu immediately became furious:

"Hey you, you muddle-headed fool, how dare you talk to me like that? My temper has improved a lot now. If you had spoken to me like that a few years ago, I would have beaten you to your knees!"

Lu Yao jumped down from the carriage.

Startled, Cao Erdan quickly pulled Lu Yao along:

"Hey kid, don't hit me..."

Director Liu panicked: "What? You want to take action? Are you going to defy the heavens?"

At the same time, questions arose about Cao Erdan.

Now it's my turn to hold you accountable, and you're stopping him? Shouldn't you be stopping me from beating him up?

Then they heard Cao Erdan repeatedly whispering advice to Lu Yao:

"Let me talk to Fourth Brother. We'll be delivering goods to him in the future, so we can't afford to offend him."

Director Liu couldn't hear what Cao Erdan was muttering. By this time, he had already taken off his cotton-padded coat, thrown it on the carriage, and then assumed the starting stance for Wing Chun.

"Cao Erdan, get out of my way! Let me teach this little brat a lesson. He won't know he's above everyone else until I beat him up..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Cao Erdan was shoved aside.

Lu Yaoren appeared in front of him in a flash.

It was so fast that he couldn't react at all.

With both hands outstretched in front, they couldn't stop Lu Yao's fist in time.

"Bang"

It hit his cheek.

Director Liu stumbled backward, tripping and falling backward.

In the short time it took him to take two steps back and fall, Lu Yao's fists rained down on him.

When he fell to the ground, he had already been punched eight or nine times in the face.

I can't even open my eyes.

Quickly cover your head with your hands.

He curled up, protecting his stomach with his legs, hunching his neck to hide his face, and covering the back of his head with his hands.

He's not much of a fighter, but his stance for getting beaten up is pretty standard.

Lu Yao kicked him more than a dozen times, but he couldn't hit his vital points.

But it hurts quite a bit when I kick my legs and arms.

"You idiot, you dare hit me? I'll send you to jail!"

Lu Yao angrily called out to Cao Erdan, who was being held back by the crowd:

"There's a shovel in the car, go get it for me. Let's see if his words are tougher than the shovel."

Upon hearing this, Director Liu jumped up and tried to run away.

Lu Yao grabbed his hair and pinned him to the ground, punching him repeatedly in the ear.

He quickly covered himself again and lay down on the ground.

Now he understood why Cao Erdan had pulled him instead of him; that kid was too ruthless.

It really hurts when someone hits you!

Cao Erdan still wanted to break up the fight, but seeing Lu Yao's wide-eyed expression, he was a little scared and didn't dare to step forward. Instead, he stood aside and tried to persuade him.

"Alright, alright, you little rascal, stop hitting me."

Lu Yao cursed, "I have to beat up this kind of bastard. I don't care about the times he skimps on your pay, but now he's messing with me. If I don't beat him to death, he won't be able to sell anything anymore! I wanted to beat him up just now!"

Punch after punch.

Although Director Liu was screaming in pain, Lu Yao still couldn't feel any breath coming in.

I hate people who use their power to make things difficult for others.

Seeing that his cotton-padded coat was quite thick, he was hunched over and stiff, and shouted angrily:

"Cao Erdan, go get the shovel."

"Stop hitting me..."

Are you going or not?

Lu Yao glared at Cao Erdan, and Cao Erdan became frightened.

He quickly went to the car to get the shovel, and while handing it over, he changed his approach to persuade Director Wang.

"Fourth Brother, don't be so stubborn. Say something nice. We country bumpkins respond better to gentle persuasion than force!"

Director Liu still couldn't swallow his pride and beg for forgiveness:

"He's all talk and no action, but I'm not one to back down! Go ahead and kill me if you dare, or I'll make you regret it, you muddle-headed fool!"

"Fuck your mother, you still dare to talk back."

Lu Yao took the shovel, held it upright, and slashed it down on his back.
