AWB Chapter 164 Outsider
Chapter 164 Outsider
Qin Yingxue stood up abruptly, but someone was faster than her. Qin Yingxue looked closely and saw that it was Bai Haijian and Qin Dahe. Even Yang Weijun was only one step behind.
In the blink of an eye, only she and Xiao Haifeng were left in the room.
Little Haifeng's small face showed anxiety, but she still tried to reassure herself in a soft voice, "Boss Zhang is so capable, he'll definitely be fine. Auntie, we're not in a hurry..."
Qin Yingxue was both amused and exasperated.
Zhang San's skills are more than enough to handle three or five ordinary people.
But this is a small fishing village, and Qin Yingxue has set up a program in his system that prevents him from easily making enemies or resorting to violence.
The real fear is that if Zhang San is unwilling to take action, those people in the small fishing village will think that Zhang San is afraid of them and become even more arrogant.
Qin Yingxue led Xiao Haifeng towards the beach.
From afar, Qin Yingxue saw that the scene was chaotic, and Zhang San's tall figure stood out in the crowd.
As Qin Yingxue approached, she noticed that Zhang San was backing away, with varying degrees of bruising on his face and arms.
One of the fishermen in front of him was particularly arrogant, constantly shoving Zhang San and threatening him with a fierce expression.
Bai Haijian and Qin Dahe stood beside Zhang San, confronting him.
Unfortunately, the scene was too chaotic and noisy, and it was impossible to hear what everyone was shouting.
Without thinking, Qin Yingxue stepped forward. Since they had already been bullied to this point, if she didn't do something, others would think she was easy to bully.
Just then, someone nearby shouted, "The village chief is here..."
Qin Yingxue stopped and turned around to see someone running towards her, panting.
"Make way...make way, the village chief is here..."
Everyone stepped aside, and Qin Yingxue saw Haisheng supporting the village chief.
Hai Sheng also saw Qin Yingxue at the same time, and his face became a little awkward. He quickly looked away.
"What's going on?" The village chief still held considerable authority in the small fishing village. Upon seeing him appear, even the fierce-looking man stopped and eagerly went to the village chief to complain.
"Village chief, you must uphold justice for me! The seafood I painstakingly caught, this Zhang San won't even glance at it. He said he wouldn't buy it before because the sales volume wasn't high, and that was one thing, but now Bai Haijian's fishing boat is gone, why won't he buy it? Does he look down on me? Or does this Zhang San only buy seafood from Bai Haijian? If that's the case, he should have said so earlier, and I'd be..."
"Termite, who are you talking to about me?"
The village chief, his face full of displeasure, interrupted him rudely, "Boss Zhang doesn't just buy seafood from Bai Haijian; he buys from other vendors too. He clearly states his prices, saying he wants fresh, live seafood. What you're catching are half-dead, half of them are dead and rotten. With this hot weather, anyone who buys your seafood will lose money. Boss Zhang's money doesn't grow on trees..."
The termites were humiliated by the village chief's scolding and wanted to say something, but the village chief glared at them and said, "If you were Boss Zhang, would you pay money to buy seafood like this from your family?"
The termite was speechless for a moment, and a sullen expression appeared on its face.
"You realize you were wrong! Why don't you apologize to Boss Zhang right now?" The village chief glared at the termite and said in a deep voice.
"Grandpa Village Chief, Boss Zhang is injured." Bai Haijian stepped forward, staring coldly at Bai Yi.
When the termites saw Bai Haijian dismantling their backstage, they glared fiercely at him.
Seeing this, Qin Dahe stood in front of Bai Haijian with a face full of anger and glared back at him.
"What are you glaring at, you outsider?" Termite was furious. "Don't think that just because you've latched onto Bai Haijian, this greenhorn, you can stay in our little fishing village. I'm warning you, I'll be the first to object."
He was already embarrassed by the village chief's scolding, and now he was glared at by Qin Dahe. His pent-up emotions found an outlet, and he vented them on Qin Dahe.
"You..." Bai Haijian was enraged, but unfortunately he was tongue-tied and didn't know how to refute it. His eyes turned red with anger.
"Uncle White Ant, if I remember correctly, you're also from out of town. You married Aunt Bai and that's how you took our surname. So, if that's the case, shouldn't I also call Uncle White Ant 'Out-of-Town'..."
Before Haisheng could finish speaking, he received a sharp rap on the head: "At such a young age, you only learn bad things instead of good ones."
"Grandpa..." Haisheng clutched his head in pain, looking at his grandfather with a somewhat aggrieved expression.
The village chief raised the corners of his mouth slightly, glared at Haisheng, and then slowly said to the others, "Our Baisha Village is fortunate to have the troops stationed on the island, which has saved us from the invasion of pirates. Dahe is Battalion Commander Song's brother-in-law, and he gets along well with Haijian. We people of Baisha Village are grateful people. From now on, Qin Dahe will be no different from the people of our Baijia Village."
As for Mr. Zhang being injured by termites today, the termites should be fined to pay for his medical expenses and issue an apology. Termites, do you have any objections?
Although the termite was unwilling, seeing that the village chief had said so and everyone else was looking at him, he could only lower his head and mumble, "No."
"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry you had to go through this today. Are you satisfied with my arrangement?" The village chief looked at Zhang San and said with a forced smile.
Zhang Sanyuan smiled his signature smile: "Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth. Thank you, village chief, for standing up for me today."
"Mr. Zhang, you're too kind. Our little fishing village will still need your help in the future," the village chief said quickly.
"Of course, of course," Zhang San replied with a smile.
After exchanging a few polite words, the village chief dismissed everyone.
Before Haisheng left, Bai Haijian stopped him.
Hai Sheng's expression was somewhat unpleasant, but he still waited in place.
"Thank you for today, Haisheng." Bai Haijian patted Haisheng on the shoulder.
Hai Sheng's originally unpleasant face showed a look of astonishment, and then he looked at Bai Haijian with disbelief.
Bai Haijian grinned, revealing his teeth: "I know you want to go out to sea, but Grandpa Village Chief won't allow it. Once I buy a new fishing boat, I'll take you out to sea."
"Really? Brother Haijian?" Haisheng asked excitedly, his face beaming with joy.
"Of course." Bai Haijian patted his shoulder forcefully.
Hai Sheng winced in pain, but then grinned, remembering Bai Haijian's promise.
Yang Weijun insisted on helping Zhang San back to the Bai family home. Bai Haijian took out some medicine to help Zhang San apply it, but Zhang San quickly refused.
Qin Yingxue couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zhang San's panicked expression.
Sometimes, she felt that Zhang San was quite humane.
When pushed to the limit, they even resorted to some subtle actions, such as blushing.
She was really curious about why the robot blushed.
“Mr. Zhang, I wouldn’t normally feel comfortable speaking up about this situation you’ve encountered today. But time is of the essence, and wasting a whole day would be a huge loss. We’d like to…”
Bai Haijian wore an embarrassed expression, looking somewhat awkward.
"Just say what you want to say." Zhang San smiled.
"We'd like to trouble Mr. Zhang to buy a fishing boat..."
The impatient Brother Qin chimed in from the side.
“I’d like to buy one too, Mr. Zhang.”
A slightly familiar voice suddenly came from behind.
