"What are you two arguing about? Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you?"
Just as one of the store managers was about to retort, Elder Wang's voice suddenly came from the entrance.
Elder Wang was going to see Wang Xiaofeng off to school today, so he arrived a little late, but he didn't expect to see this scene!
Their Wang family was a prominent family in the town, and such a quarrel like fishwives, what was proper conduct?
"Elder Wang, you've arrived at a good time. Some scoundrel from who knows where forced his way into our meeting, and what's worse, he's sitting in the new partner's seat!"
"Yes, this guy is utterly arrogant. You must teach him a good lesson!"
"Kid, Elder Wang is here. You're done for!"
…
Several store managers who had just mocked Er Zhu crowded over, complaining one after another.
*Slap!*
Before they could say anything more, a loud slap echoed. All the store managers froze, staring at Elder Wang in shock.
"Elder Wang, you've hit the wrong person. That poor wretch who barged into the venue!"
The store manager who was hit, clutching his reddened cheek, pointed at Er Zhu angrily and aggrievedly.
"I hit *you*. Do you think the bodyguards outside are made of mud? If he didn't have a badge, would they have let him in?"
"You're all store managers, yet your brains are worse than a fool's!"
Elder Wang angrily pointed at the store managers who had just complained, scolding them fiercely. Although the store managers were angry, seeing Elder Wang's displeased face, they dared not say anything.
"Er Zhu, I'm sorry. You had to witness this joke."
Seeing that everyone had fallen silent, Elder Wang glared at them fiercely before walking towards Er Zhu with a smile, his expression changing faster than flipping a book!
"It's fine. Let's start quickly; time is running out."
Er Zhu shook hands gently with Elder Wang and then pointed at his watch.
He had intended to finish early, but these idiots had wasted a lot of his time.
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll start the meeting now."
Seeing Er Zhu's displeased expression, Elder Wang nodded repeatedly, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.
He had just found out that this Qingya Hotel also belonged to Er Zhu!
Not only that, but he also heard that the Qingfeng Hotel, which was about to open, was also Er Zhu's!
Two five-star hotels. Er Zhu could be considered a wealthy person in town!
Although he couldn't reach the level of a magnate, for someone his age, he was a veritable prodigy!
While Elder Wang was shocked, he admired Er Zhu even more, thus strengthening his belief in his choice.
"Everyone, please be quiet. I would now like to formally introduce, this is the partner of our Wang's Traditional Chinese Medicine Store, Wang Er Zhu!"
Taking a deep breath, Elder Wang pointed at Er Zhu beside him and solemnly announced.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a deathly silence fell upon the audience. Everyone looked at Er Zhu in disbelief, especially those who had mocked him earlier.
They had thought Er Zhu was the store manager of the newly opened Chinese medicine store. They never expected him to be that mysterious partner!
It was said that this partner was personally sought out by Elder Wang. They never imagined that someone dressed so ordinarily would make the high and mighty Elder Wang personally invite him!
Facing everyone's shock, Er Zhu remained very calm. He simply scanned the crowd and nodded slightly in greeting.
"From now on, if you have any questions, you can come to me. I also hope to contribute my part to the Chinese medicine store."
Er Zhu took the microphone handed over by Elder Wang. His tone was calm, yet it was like a stormy wave, crashing into everyone's hearts!
From his words, it seemed this Wang Er Zhu also understood traditional Chinese medicine!
Tsk tsk, wealthy and capable, no wonder Elder Wang invited him personally!
"You all continue with your meeting. I have something else to attend to and will be leaving now."
Ignoring the stunned gazes of the crowd, Er Zhu uttered these words and walked towards the exit. At the same time, the hotel manager happened to walk in.
"Serve them well, and don't charge them for this bill."
Er Zhu stopped beside the manager and instructed him before continuing to walk forward. The manager nodded repeatedly, not even daring to speak.
"What the heck, this guy is so arrogant. Does he think he's the hotel owner?"
"Elder Wang, is this guy a charlatan? Did you go senile to invite such a person as a partner?"
"Haha, does he think he's a domineering CEO? This is hilarious!"
…
Facing Er Zhu's words, the store managers' eyes were filled with mockery.
They had initially thought Er Zhu had some talent, but they didn't expect him to be someone who only knew how to brag!
Elder Wang must have heard his boastful words and sought him out!
"Alright, all of you shut up. Er Zhu *is* the owner of Qingya Hotel!"
Seeing the mocking voices growing louder, Elder Wang glanced at everyone as if they were fools and roared.
Instantly, all the store managers' faces fell. They exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other's eyes!
"Boss Wang is not only the owner here, but he's also the village head of Shiliu Village!"
The manager's words further shocked the store managers. They looked in the direction Er Zhu had left, a trace of fear flashing in their eyes!
No wonder Elder Wang had invited him proactively. He truly was a young and promising man!
Just as everyone was reeling from Er Zhu's successive titles, Er Zhu had already arrived at the fruit shop. The fruit shop was closed for renovation, and only Liu Yan and a few employees were busy inside.
"Er Zhu, you're here. I've already contacted the renovation team; they'll be here soon."
Seeing Er Zhu, Liu Yan wiped the sweat from her face and ran over with a smile.
"Yes, thank you for your hard work."
Er Zhu nodded slightly, his eyes looking at the cleared-out shop.
Although most of the shop owners had sold their properties to him, a small portion had not. As a result, he couldn't connect all these shops.
Er Zhu looked at the shops still doing business, thinking to himself.
"Boss Wang, hehe, long time no see."
Just then, a man's voice came from behind Er Zhu. He turned his head and saw several men smiling at him obsequiously.
As Er Zhu turned around, he recognized them immediately. They were the owners who hadn't sold their shops!
"Do you need something from me?"
Er Zhu scanned the few of them and asked calmly.
"We wanted to ask if you're still interested in the shops. We'd like to sell them to you."
The men chuckled, exchanged glances, and said sheepishly.
They had heard that this kid was rich and paid without even haggling!
If they had known this guy was so wealthy, they would have sold him the shops long ago, why would they have waited until now!
"Fifty thousand, no more!"
Er Zhu naturally guessed their intentions and said, looking at their expectant little eyes.
