Chapter 140: Making Friends

  The three of them, in a panic, took a look at the bald man who was still lying on the ground unconscious, and then looked at Zhang Dahai's ferocious face. They couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines. How did they not notice his ferocious appearance from the start?

  "You... don't come over here... we'll handle it ourselves..." The tall, leading man saw Zhang Dahai slowly approaching, his mouth curled into a cold smile, and his entire body exuded an intimidating aura that made him feel like he was having trouble breathing, causing him to shiver involuntarily as he spoke.

  "Hurry up, I don't have time to drag things out with you guys!" Zhang Dahai glared at the three of them with a fierce gaze.

  "Alright, alright..." The tall man said, embracing his head with both hands, staring at the steps of the doorway. Although there were only four steps, it made these stout men dizzy. The tall man unconsciously swallowed his saliva, closed his eyes and rolled down.

  "Ah yo......... Ah yo......" Along with the rolling progress, a tall man's mouth kept making painful cries.

  The other two people also rolled down according to the law.

  "Haha ....................." Before he knew it, the surroundings of Xiao Yu's pharmacy were packed with people. At this time, seeing the four men's wretched appearance, they burst into thunderous laughter.

  These people are all nearby businessmen, and these businessmen have been extorted by these few people to varying degrees. They just don't want to fight with the authorities, and besides, it's themselves who will end up losing in a fight, so they might as well spend some money to buy peace. Seeing these four people being so embarrassed and humiliated at this time, they are naturally delighted in their hearts.

  "Old Wang, I'm in a good mood today, let's go to my place and have a couple of drinks!"

  "Are you drinking? Old Zhang, when you drink with Old Wang, I'm left out!"

  "Haha, today was really satisfying! Old Wang, you just prepare the wine and I'll take care of the dishes!"

  "Haha, these four bastards have finally gotten their due, great..."

  Xiao Yu stood on the steps, listening to the various discussions in the crowd, and knew what these people usually did! How unpopular they were, but these ordinary civilians had no way out, and if they had grievances, they could only endure them. Unless you don't open a shop, but if you don't open a shop, how can a family of old and young make a living?

  Xiao Yu thought that Zhang Da Hai's punishment for the few people was too light.

  Xiao Yu stood at the edge of the door, lightly waving his fingers. If it weren't for fellow practitioners, no one would notice that Xiao Yu was drawing symbols in mid-air. Ordinary people who saw Xiao Yu's hand movements thought he was just exercising his fingers!

  A moment later, a simplified version of the Juxi symbol took shape in Xiao Yu's hand. With a light push, it was injected into the tall man's body. Then, Xiao Yu drew three more talismans and injected them into the bodies of the others.

  When the talisman was inserted into the bodies of the four men, the four men just shivered and had no other feeling! After the three rolled down, they heard the discussion in the crowd. The tall man led the other two, lowered his head, and carried the unconscious bald-headed man to run outside the crowd.

  Zhang Shaohua watched the four people rolling down, and the bad air in his heart was all released. Today's affairs he would not mention to anyone. If someone knew that a municipal party committee secretary was despised by a few small-time street vendors, no one would laugh at those little shrimp, they would only laugh at him.

  And he will also become a laughing stock within the system after tea and dinner, and not only will he lose face, but Secretary Chu will also lose face with him, so he didn't plan to say anything, thinking that there would be plenty of opportunities to deal with them.

  Four people turned a corner and entered a small alley, where the bald man finally opened his eyes. It turned out that this bald man had been awake for some time, but was afraid of continuing to be beaten and pretended to be unconscious. Now that they were far away from the original place, he opened his eyes.

  "Ah, you're pretending!" The tall man and the other two saw that as soon as the bald-headed man entered the alley, he opened his eyes and immediately let go of the hands that were supporting him.

  "Captain, is that it? I'm not willing to give up. Why don't we get a few people to smash his glass every day? That piece of glass alone will cost him thousands and kill him with worry!" The bald man said with a sinister expression.

  "Nonsense! This kind of thing that can't be done in public isn't something people like us do!" The tall, leading man scolded the bald-headed man and said.

  "What if not? Are we just going to swallow such a big loss and let it go? If we want to stay in this circle, we must get back at them!" The bald man said when he heard the tall man disagree with his idea. Today, he was the one who suffered the most, when Zhang Dahai choked him by the neck, he had never felt that death was so close.

  "Haha, Baldy, what's your hurry? I have my own plans!" The tall man said with a light laugh.

  "What's going on?" The bald-headed man and the other two asked hastily when they heard their captain's words.

  "Haha..." The tall man chuckled with satisfaction and beckoned to the other three.

  Baldy and the other two hastily leaned in close, and after hearing what the tall man had to say, they looked at him with a face full of admiration.

  "Captain, you're too awesome!" The bald man looked at the captain with a face full of admiration and gave him a thumbs up.

  "Haha... That's right, or how else would I be your captain?" The tall man revealed a triumphant smile, and at this point they had already forgotten the embarrassing moment just before.

  Inside the Hall of Ten Thousand Saints

  "Zhang, I'm really sorry to have caused you so much trouble for my sake earlier! It's really weighing on my mind!" Xiao Yu looked at Zhang Shaohua and said, in any case, Zhang Shaohua had stood up for himself today and had been subjected to a lot of anger from those people.

  "Heh heh, Xiao Lao Di, we're all family brothers, why so polite?" Zhang Shaohua looked at Xiao Ye with a light smile and said in a tone of blame.

  "It's all my fault, it's all my fault... Come on, Big Brother Zhang, let me introduce you to this guy. He's my sworn big brother, Zhang Dahai!"

  "Big brother, this is Zhang Shaohua, Brother Zhang!" Xiao Yu apologized to Zhang Shaohua twice and introduced the two to each other.

  "Hello! Zhang Shaohua!" Zhang Shaohua stretched out one hand towards Zhang Dahu.

  Zhang Dahai looked at Zhang Shaohua with a scrutinizing gaze, and after a moment, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zhang Shaohua, saying: "Zhang Dahai!"

  "Xiao Lao Di, you brothers have just met and must have a lot to talk about, I won't disturb you today! Let's get together for dinner another day!" Zhang Shaohua said to Xiao Ye.

  Just now, Zhang Dahai looked at himself with a scrutinizing and playful gaze. At first, he was indeed quite annoyed. What identity did he have that he would take the initiative to shake hands with him, but he still put on airs? However, soon after, he thought of the playfulness in his eyes and knew that he must have known his identity. In knowing his identity, how could this person be so... what was he doing?

  This person looks so familiar, he must have seen him before, but where did he see him, he really can't remember.

  The other person was extremely familiar with himself, but he knew nothing about him, which made Zhang Shaohua feel very uncomfortable in his heart, so he hastily bid farewell and wanted to go back and think carefully where he had seen this person before.

  He passed by the antique city today and wanted to invite Xiao Ye out for a meal to get in touch with his feelings, but now he doesn't even have the heart to eat.

  "Another day, another day I'll invite Big Brother Zhang to dinner and apologize to Big Brother Zhang!" Xiao Yu was also curious about the deep sea, so when he heard that Zhang Shao Hua wanted to leave, he didn't make too much of a fuss.

  After Zhang Shaohua left, Xiao Yu looked at Zhang Dahai with a curious expression and asked: "Big brother, how did you come to the deep sea? When did you arrive? You didn't even call me, I could have gone to pick you up!"

  "Haha, I'll be staying in the deep sea from now on! It's been a week already. I wanted to surprise you, but I got busy and it wasn't until today that I had time to come out!" Zhang Dashai said with a smile.

  "How... did you also come to work in the deep sea, big brother? How did you know I was here?" Xiao Yu asked. Xiao Yu found it very strange that Zhang Da Hai could find himself here, considering he had only recently made the decision to open this shop.

  "Haha, yes! I've been transferred to work in the deep sea! It was Xiao Zhuo who helped me find this place!" Zhang Dahai explained with a smile.

  Xiao Yu nodded. If it was Zhuo Si Mian who wanted to find him, it wasn't too difficult. He and Wei Jun were also classmates, and with a little inquiry, he could have known.

  Because Zhang Dahai had eaten at his workplace and come over, the two of them just chatted in Xiao Yu's store without going anywhere else.

  Zhang Shaohua returned to the municipal party committee and was still thinking in the corridor about where he had seen that person before, but no matter what, he couldn't remember. It wasn't that he liked to overthink things, it's just that whenever he thought of Zhang Dahai's gaze, which seemed to be savoring him, he felt a sense of unease in his heart, as if there was a thorn in his back.

  "Xiao Zhang, what's wrong with you, looking so distracted?" Zhang Shao-hua was too busy thinking to himself, slowly overtaking the municipal party secretary Chu Guo-qing who was strolling in the corridor. Chu Guo-qing was quite familiar with this secretary of his, who had been following him for two years and was always well-behaved and clever, never doing anything out of line.

  Zhang Shaohua, who was lost in thought, suddenly heard the voice of Chuguoqing, first stunned, and then a big sweat broke out on his head in this early winter season.

  "Director Chu, I...I..." Zhang Shao Hua saw that he had already walked to the front of Director Chu. Although there was no explicit rule, he knew this was a clear overstep. Zhang Shao Hua knew everything he had came from the person in front of him, so his words were even more stuttered and he couldn't say a complete sentence.
