Chapter 170 Tiger and Turtle Treasures
Chapter 170 Tiger and Turtle Treasures
Li Mu clenched his fists, a flash of anger in his eyes: "This Chef Sun is really going too far! I supplied him with goods, and he dared to resell them at a higher price, making such shady money!"
Li Jianjun was also furious: "Brother Mu, we can't just let this go! We have to think of a way to teach this bastard a lesson!"
"That's easy, just report him to the Food Safety Supervision and Administration Bureau and let them investigate him," Manager Liu suggested from the side.
Li Mu shook his head: "No, doing this will punish him, but it will also implicate us. After all, when we supplied him, we didn't know he would resell it at a higher price."
Upon hearing this, Li Jianjun became agitated: "So we're just going to let it go like this? I can't swallow this!"
Li Mu glanced at him and said, "This matter will have to be handled by Manager Liu."
He knew exactly what Manager Liu was thinking. Wasn't he just trying to use him to bring Chef Sun down? This way, he could get rid of Manager Liu's biggest threat without getting his own hands dirty.
That's a brilliant and ingenious plan!
That depends on whether Li Mu agrees.
Li Mu had already made up his mind. He slowly said, "Manager Liu, I can help you with this, but you have to agree to one condition."
Upon hearing that there was hope, Manager Liu quickly nodded: "Tell me, tell me, as long as it's within my power, I will definitely agree."
Li Mu said, "After I deal with Chef Sun, you'll have to continue using my products, and the price can't be higher than what you pay to others."
Upon hearing this, Manager Liu realized the request wasn't unreasonable and quickly agreed: "Okay, no problem. I guarantee that I will give priority to your goods in the future, and the price will be absolutely fair."
Li Mu nodded and said, "Okay, it's settled then. We're all in the same boat now, so we have to help each other out."
Manager Liu nodded repeatedly: "That's right, that's right. From now on, we're brothers. We'll share the good times and the bad."
After the group finished their meal, Manager Liu drove Li Mu and the others back to Lijia Village.
Jiang Xuefen looked him over and saw that he was alright. With tears in her eyes, she asked for the corn stalks to whip him.
"You're crazy! How could you get caught like that! If anything happens to you, how am I supposed to live?!"
When Li Mu saw Jiang Xuefen crying, he panicked: "Oh dear, Mom, don't cry, I'm fine."
He quickly stepped forward, put his arm around Jiang Xuefen's shoulder, and gently comforted her.
Jiang Xuefen cried and pounded his chest: "Why did you have to offend that Chef Sun? He's the head chef in the cafeteria, he's powerful and influential, we can't afford to mess with him."
Li Mu sighed: "Mom, look at what you're saying! That Chef Sun is a complete scoundrel! He embezzles and takes bribes, lining his own pockets. How can we tolerate someone like that? I can't just stand by and watch him continue to get away with it, so I'm trying to find a way to bring him down."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuefen understood a bit. She wiped away her tears and said, "Then you have to be careful, don't get yourself involved too."
Li Mu nodded: "Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I was able to get out so quickly this time thanks to Manager Liu's help."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuefen quickly thanked Manager Liu: "Manager Liu, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long my Li Mu would have been in the detention center."
Manager Liu said politely, "Auntie, you're too kind. This is what I should do. Li Mu and I are brothers now, so his business is my business."
"Muzi, I'm off! City management is open as usual tomorrow morning, don't be late with your deliveries!"
After finishing his speech, Manager Liu drove away from Lijia Village.
The next day, before dawn, Dazhuang and Limu brought all the goods to the municipal canteen, but they couldn't find Chef Sun. Only his ordinary employees were busy working there.
Li Mu sneered inwardly. This Chef Sun knew he had offended him, so he was hiding.
He didn't pay any attention, unloaded the goods, and was about to leave.
When Manager Liu saw Li Mu arrive, he quickly came up to him: "Muzi, you're here! Have you brought the goods yet?"
Li Mu nodded: "Yes, they've all been brought here."
"Okay, then you go and rest first, I'll watch over things here."
Li Mu didn't stand on ceremony and found a place to sit down.
A moment later, Chef Sun rushed in in a panic.
His expression changed immediately when he saw Li Mu sitting there.
Li Mu looked at him sarcastically and said, "Oh, isn't this Chef Sun? What, did you know I was coming and came back especially to greet me?"
Head Chef Sun tried to remain calm: "What are you talking about? I came back to get something."
Li Mu didn't expose him, and said, "Get something? What do you want? Do you need help?"
Chef Sun quickly waved his hand: "No need, no need, I can do it myself."
After saying that, he hurriedly went into the kitchen.
Li Mu patted Dazhuang: "You stay here and smoke a few cigarettes, I'm going to the kitchen to see what he's up to."
Dazhuang nodded: "Okay, Brother Mu, you go ahead, I'll keep watch here."
Li Mu got up and walked towards the kitchen.
As soon as he reached the kitchen door, he heard Chef Sun talking to his brother-in-law inside.
"Brother-in-law, what should we do? That kid Li Mu is out now, he'll definitely come looking for trouble."
Chef Sun snorted coldly: "What's there to be afraid of! He's just a small-time vendor, what can he do to me? I'd like to see what he dares to do to me!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mu became even more certain that this Chef Sun was definitely a bully who preyed on the weak and feared the strong. He then took out the recording pen he had received from Manager Liu.
"Are we still taking that goods? I saw there were quite a few good items delivered to the warehouse."
Chef Sun hesitated for a moment: "Take it, why not take it? He doesn't know it was us who took it anyway. Besides, those goods are just a waste to leave there, we might as well take them home."
Li Mu was furious. This Chef Sun was simply lawless, capable of doing something like this!
"Okay! So, brother-in-law, the usual deal? I'll have someone come and pick me up tonight?"
Chef Sun nodded: "Yes, same old rule. You can have someone come and pick it up tonight. Remember, be careful not to get caught."
Li Mu heard everything clearly outside the door and had already made up his mind.
He turned and left the kitchen, returning to the living room, and said to Dazhuang, "Dazhuang, we'll have to work overtime tonight."
Upon hearing this, Da Zhuang immediately perked up: "Brother Mu, you mean we're going to make our move tonight?"
Li Mu nodded: "Yes, tonight we'll trap him like a turtle in a jar and teach this Chef Sun a lesson."
Upon hearing this, Dazhuang was immediately excited: "Okay, Brother Mu, whatever you say, we'll do!"
When Li Mu explained the plan to Da Zhuang, Da Zhuang nodded repeatedly: "Okay! We'll wait for that tiger and turtle thing!"
