Yang Zhen actually ordered a bowl of egg fried rice and wolfed it down in front of everyone.
The scene stunned everyone. When they came to their senses, they immediately started with sarcastic remarks.
"Eating a bowl of egg fried rice so heartily, how many days has it been since he last ate?"
"To be reduced to this state and still have the nerve to come and freeload? What a disgrace!"
"If I were him, I'd go to the market right now, buy a block of tofu, and smash my head against it."
However, Yang Zhen ignored everyone's mockery and focused solely on finishing the egg fried rice in front of him.
He hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and he was genuinely hungry.
"Mr. Yang, why don't you wait a moment? I'll go urge the kitchen to serve the dishes quickly..."
Luo Tieniu said in a low voice, feeling a pang of heartache seeing Yang Zhen like this.
"No need, this is fine!"
Yang Zhen waved his hand, not even lifting his head.
Hearing this, Luo Tieniu's nose felt even more sore.
"Mr. Yang, if you don't mind, why don't you come work with me? I can't guarantee great wealth, but I can definitely ensure you won't go hungry."
Luo Tieniu was still a team leader of the construction team, just like three years ago. Arranging a job for someone in the construction team was not a problem.
"Luo Tieniu, what do you mean by that? Yang Zhen used to be a dignified company boss. Would he do dirty, hard labor with you? And look up, who here isn't higher ranking than you? We haven't said anything, so what right do you have to recruit people into the construction team?"
Fu Sheng said to Luo Tieniu with a disdainful curl of his lips.
"Mr. Fu, it's not a big deal, I thought..."
Luo Tieniu looked embarrassed. Just as he was about to explain, Fu Sheng cursed him, "What do you think? What are you, to speak here? Yang Zhen's job should be arranged by me!"
Hearing this, Luo Tieniu was slightly stunned, thinking to himself when Fu Sheng became so kind.
Then he heard Fu Sheng continue, "I remember the construction site is short of someone to clean latrines. Yang Zhen, don't say I don't look out for you. This is a good job, perfectly suited for you. I'll give you three thousand two hundred a month, how about it?"
Fu Sheng's words immediately caused a burst of laughter.
Xiao Li laughed so hard her body swayed, looking at Yang Zhen with utter contempt.
What kind of former general manager is this, being mocked like this and not daring to utter a single word? Truly useless!
She didn't know that the reason Yang Zhen hadn't spoken was simply because he was focused on eating and couldn't be bothered to deal with Fu Sheng.
Finally, Yang Zhen finished the last bite of fried rice in his bowl, wiped his mouth, and let out a satisfied burp.
Then he turned his gaze to Fu Sheng and said nonchalantly, "Fu Sheng, you don't want to work anymore, do you? Believe it or not, with one word from me, I can have you kicked out of the company immediately!"
"What the hell are you talking about!"
Fu Sheng immediately stood up, slamming the table, and cursed, "Yang Zhen, you think you can make me leave? What do you think you are, still thinking you're the company boss? Luo Tieniu, get this guy out of here quickly. Looking at him makes me lose my appetite!"
"Mr. Fu, please calm down. Today is my big day. Just give me some face and don't be angry!"
Luo Tieniu quickly tried to appease him.
"Hmph, I'll give you face today. Luo Tieniu, you do know it's your big day? Did you consider what I told you about the wedding lead car?"
Fu Sheng asked with a cold snort.
Luo Tieniu looked troubled and said, "Mr. Fu, twenty thousand yuan for the lead car, I think it's a bit too expensive..."
"Expensive? Luo Tieniu, my cousin's car is a Bentley, do you know what a Bentley is? A world-famous car. You think twenty thousand yuan a day is too much?"
Fu Sheng shouted, his neck bulging.
"Mr. Fu, you know I don't have much money. The wedding banquet alone has emptied my savings. Where else would I get the money to rent such an expensive lead car?"
Luo Tieniu said with a bitter face.
"Luo Tieniu, I think you have something to say? What, you have a problem with me?"
Fu Sheng narrowed his eyes and said sarcastically, "If my cousin wasn't the general manager of Fang Lin Ren Jia, do you think you could have a banquet here at this high-end place for eighteen hundred yuan a table?"
"You think renting a lead car is too expensive? If it's too expensive, don't have it. Or better yet, don't get married at all, that's the cheapest!"
Hearing Fu Sheng say this, Luo Tieniu was instantly infuriated.
He was honest, but he wasn't stupid.
Fang Lin Ren Jia was a restaurant that focused on affordable prices, and the highest wedding banquet package was only eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan per table.
Fu Sheng's cousin had quoted him eighteen hundred yuan per table, clearly treating him like a fool.
Out of respect for Fu Sheng, Luo Tieniu endured it, biting his teeth and swallowing his anger.
But he never expected the other party to push his luck and force him to rent such an expensive lead car!
Luo Tieniu was also a man of integrity and couldn't stand being bullied like this. He gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Fu, why don't you help me cancel the banquet? Eighteen hundred yuan a table is too expensive, I can't afford it. And the lead car, how can a commoner like me afford a Bentley as a lead car? If it doesn't work out, I can rent a tractor to get married!"
"The banquet is already prepared, and you want to cancel it just like that?"
Fu Sheng sneered, "Luo Tieniu, do you think this is any place? Can you do whatever you want? To tell you the truth, this entire street belongs to the Dragon King's territory, and my cousin is also one of the Dragon King's people. You want to cancel the banquet? Fine, but you'd better consider how many lives you have!"
Hearing Fu Sheng's words, everyone's faces showed surprise.
"Mr. Fu, so you have such a powerful cousin!"
"Someone from the Dragon King's circle, their status is truly extraordinary. Even our General Manager Xiao would have to show some respect!"
Amidst the flattery, Fu Sheng became even more smug. "My cousin is a loyal person. He said that my friends are his friends. If anyone encounters trouble in the future, just one phone call, and it'll be solved in two words!"
After learning about Fu Sheng's cousin's identity, everyone immediately started advising Luo Tieniu.
"Luo Tieniu, it's just a few tens of thousands of yuan. Making friends with someone from the Dragon King's circle is worth any amount of money!"
"If you don't have money, you can borrow it. But if you lose your life, no amount of money will be useful!"
"Exactly, I advise you to give up the idea of canceling the banquet as soon as possible. If you dare to offend someone from the Dragon King's circle, you won't have enough lives to die!"
Fu Sheng smiled insincerely. Seeing the fear on Luo Tieniu's face, he knew the time was right.
"What are you all saying? It's a joyous occasion, what are you talking about death for!"
Fu Sheng pretended to be angry, then narrowed his eyes and looked at Luo Tieniu, "Tieniu, have you thought about it? This lead car, are you going to rent it or not?"
Luo Tieniu was hesitant. If he rented it, he would be taken advantage of again. If he didn't, he really couldn't afford to offend the Dragon King's people.
Just then, a light, indifferent voice suddenly sounded.
"It's just a lead car, Tieniu, you don't need to rent it. I'll handle it for you!"
