I Am Sanctified By Writing Books
Chapter 149 Extortion
That big man seems to want this effect, as long as there are more people, the owner of this inn will calm down the matter as soon as possible because he is afraid of the accusations of everyone.
Chu He stood upstairs, watching the farce indifferently.
That's right, it's a farce. Chu He, who has the supernatural power of "clear ears and eyesight", can clearly feel that the middle-aged man lying on the ground has nothing at all, and the painful expression on his face is also faked.
These two people are clearly here to extort money!
Of course, the waiter in the shop also saw the sinister intentions of these two people, so naturally he would not agree, but argued with them.
"Hey! The two of us traveled across mountains and rivers and wanted to go to Qingcheng to join relatives, but we didn't expect to be bullied in this inn. Could it be because our brothers are not local?" After this incident, the man turned around and played the emotional card again, and began to cry about how the two of them came here after many difficulties, but were looked down upon by the locals.
Chu He frowned upstairs. Generally speaking, the sympathy of bystanders would make them instinctively favor the disadvantaged.
And these two so-called "outsiders" naturally became a disadvantaged group in this inn. After all, the two of them cannot be compared with a big inn.
Sure enough, some of the guests around started to take the bait.
"I said Xiaoer, your inn's family has a big business, or you can just compensate them! Anyway, the business is so good!"
"That's right, not to mention whether the food in the inn is really problematic, it's not easy for the two brothers to come here after such a long journey, so just take it as a kindness!"
"Yeah, these two brothers seem to be having a hard time, so let's think of it as helping others!"
The surrounding onlookers all opened their mouths and said to the leading waiter.
The waiter in the store also looked embarrassed. These two people were obviously here to deceive and cheat. It was impossible for him to be fooled, but the surrounding onlookers were different.
If you don't pay compensation, the surrounding guest officials will not be willing, and it will not be a good thing for the reputation of your inn, but if you pay compensation, it will cause losses to the inn. Moreover, maybe these two scoundrels will come again after tasting the sweetness. The impact on the inn is not good either.
Just when the waiter was in a dilemma, a somewhat rich figure walked in from the crowd.
"Everyone, I am the shopkeeper of this inn. Please don't embarrass my waiter. If you have anything, you can talk to me!" The shopkeeper cupped his hands towards the guests and said.
"Hey! Shopkeeper, the food in your inn has caused problems for my brother! Don't you have anything to say?" When the strong man saw the shopkeeper of this inn, his eyes lit up.
As long as this one speaks up, the two of my brothers can get a lot of compensation. At that time, they can live and eat in this inn for free, and the other inn has to politely give me a sum of money. Where can such a good thing be found?
The shopkeeper was also an old man, and when he glanced at the man on the ground, he naturally saw the deception of the two brothers.
"This strong man, since your brother had an accident in my inn, I will naturally compensate you!" the shopkeeper said unhurriedly.
"Since you admit that there is a problem with your inn, then hurry up and pay for it! Don't worry, we don't want too much. I see that your inn is so big, so let's take out three to five thousand taels of silver as medical expenses first! By the way, it's not too much to free up two upper rooms for us two brothers, right?" the bearded man said triumphantly.
"Not too much, of course not too much!" The shopkeeper looked at the big man and said, but a gleam flashed in his eyes.
He was sure that these two people really came here to cheat.
But it's just a bad stomach, and he even had the nerve to ask for three to five thousand taels of silver, which is already the income of an ordinary family for several years.
Some people in the surrounding crowd also saw that something was wrong, and started talking in low voices.
"The two brothers really dare to ask for it!"
"Yeah, it's just that the stomach is ruined by eating. It's a matter of ten taels of silver. If you have a better physique, you can get over it with a night's sleep. Who can spend three to five thousand taels of silver!"
"Hehe, I figured it out. These two people have made it clear that they are here to blackmail the shopkeeper! They are really shameless!"
Although the two strong men heard these voices, they didn't care too much. As long as they could get the money, they didn't care what others said.
As for the reporter? What are you thinking! This is the official road, and there are no other buildings on the entire road except this inn. When the official messenger arrived, the two of them would have gone to nowhere.
Just when the onlookers were discussing and thinking that the shopkeeper was going to suffer this loss, the shopkeeper spoke again.
"Guest officer, although our inn is not big, there is a doctor here. I will invite the doctor from our inn here and let him show your brother! Don't cause more serious illness!" the shopkeeper said. He looked at the strong man and said, not in a hurry to get the money.
"This... don't bother you to worry about my brother's illness. Isn't the doctor in this inn one of your people? If he says he's not sick, wouldn't he hurt my brother!" Panicked, he hurriedly spoke.
"Guest officer, you have to believe in the reputation of the inn! Our doctor has been working in this inn for almost twenty years, and his medical skills are absolutely superb!" The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth curled into a smile.
"Hmph! I have been practicing medicine for more than forty years. I haven't seen any intractable diseases? You are questioning my medical skills!" A gray-haired old man walked out of the crowd with a medicine bag on his back. Box, it seems to be the doctor in this inn.
"Hmph! You don't care about my brother's affairs! I don't worry! Hurry up and make up for it!" At this time, the strong man was also afraid that the old man would see something wrong, so he simply stopped in front of the old man and prevented him from approaching. The felled man urged the shopkeeper to take the money at the same time.
At this time, even the dullest person can see that something is wrong, who can put his brother's life aside, but insist on compensation?
Standing upstairs, Chu He watched the farce, and took a high look at the shopkeeper in his heart. He could easily let the two people who blackmailed the inn show their feet. He probably encountered such a thing before.
