The queue for medicine was instantly scattered!
That team of at least twenty people charged towards the counter like that!
Ling Feng couldn't help but frown slightly upon seeing this.
The shop assistants inside were even more flustered. They clearly hadn't seen such a scene before.
*Bang!*
A burly man, at least five feet tall and three feet wide, slammed his hand on the counter, his movements heavy.
The entire counter trembled, and a lot of medicinal powder was kicked up.
The scent of Chinese medicine inside became even more potent.
Then, the burly man roared, "Get your shopkeeper out here! Today, if you don't give me an explanation, you'll be short of your Chinese medicine shop!"
This commotion was quite significant. Although the shop assistants were a bit flustered, they saw that the other party was indeed here to cause trouble.
They exchanged glances, and a surge of blood rushed to their heads!
These shop assistants were all young men. If it came to a physical fight, they wouldn't back down!
However, seeing this, Shopkeeper Liu rushed forward.
He immediately blocked the young shop assistants behind him, then forced a smile and cupped his hands in greeting to the people outside the counter!
"Esteemed sirs, I am Liu Hong, the shopkeeper here. May I know what has happened to you all?"
"You're the shopkeeper? Very good, don't you run!"
The burly man called out, then stepped aside, revealing the person on the stretcher behind him.
"See this? My brother bought medicinal herbs from you, ate them, and then fell ill. He's on the verge of death. What do you say we do?"
As the burly man finished speaking.
The man on the large stretcher writhed and cried out, "Ah, it hurts so much! I'll sue you! If you don't compensate me, I'll have your Chinese medicine shop sealed! I'll expose you scoundrel medicine dealers!"
Shopkeeper Liu's expression turned grim, his brows furrowed. Were these people here to extort them?
Their business was good, and they had already been wary of these people for some time. But they didn't expect them to come so soon.
Good business attracts envy. Such things have always existed since ancient times!
The few shop assistants behind him also understood the situation.
"What do you mean, ate our medicinal herbs?"
"Our medicinal herbs have all been inspected. There are absolutely no problems!"
"That's right, something happened to you, and you're coming to us?"
"Hmph, I think you're just here to cause trouble. Don't think that our Hundred Herbs House is easy to bully!"
...
It didn't matter that a few shop assistants became angry. The burly man opposite them grinned menacingly.
With a wave of his hand.
More than a dozen people behind him lined up in front of the counter, and they all started shouting and cursing.
"Damn it, you sell fake medicine and you still want to hit people?"
"You sell fake medicine that harms people, and you still have the nerve to talk back?"
"If you don't compensate us today, you won't be able to do business!"
"None of you will have a good time. We'll just cause trouble like this. Let's see if you'll pay!"
"If you dare, call the police. When the authorities come, we'll sue you and get your Chinese medicine shop shut down!"
The clamor continued. After all, there were many of them, and they were well-prepared!
Although the shop assistants behind the counter were filled with rage, their eyes were bloodshot, and they panted like oxen, they dared not rush out at this moment.
If they made a move, their shop would surely be finished.
Shopkeeper Liu, however, appeared calmer. He glanced at a few people, and finally fixed his gaze on the burly man.
The burly man looked at Shopkeeper Liu with a cold smile, even raising his eyebrows at him!
Shopkeeper Liu immediately understood what this person meant!
As long as they paid money, the matter would be settled!
But, would the matter truly be resolved just by paying money?
Shopkeeper Liu was not a fool. He knew even better that the origins of these people were definitely not as simple as they appeared!
These people were definitely not just here to demand money!
Their causing trouble and acting shamelessly was all to make this Hundred Herbs House admit that the medicinal herbs sold previously had problems.
For those in their line of business, once there was a problem with the quality of the medicine, it was equivalent to losing the trust of the people. No one would come to their pharmacy to buy medicine in the future!
After all, people who buy medicine are here to save their lives, not to lose their lives!
Therefore, Shopkeeper Liu would never hand over the money.
He immediately shook his head at the burly man in front of him: "Who sent you here to cause trouble?"
Upon hearing this, the burly man's eyes narrowed slightly, and the cold smile on his face receded a bit.
"Who sent us to cause trouble? We came on our own. The medicine you sold made my brother sick, and you're not even allowing us to come and demand compensation? You have to give us an explanation today, otherwise, you won't be able to do business!"
Someone next to him also shouted.
"Yeah, you're just bullying people!"
"Your pharmacy sells fake medicine, is there no justice anymore?"
"Everyone, don't buy medicine here anymore. Look at what my brother has become!"
"That's right, after eating your fake medicine, there's not a single good spot on his body. Impotence, premature ejaculation, kidney deficiency, kidney weakness, he's truly miserable!"
...
The commotion caused by these people was too great. The unsuspecting masses around were somewhat swayed!
However, Wang Pangzi, who was standing with his arms crossed among the crowd, was very displeased. He immediately walked up and shouted at a few of them!
"Alright, stop your barking! What fake medicine? The customers here are all repeat customers. They've been buying medicine here for some time, and so many people are fine, but only your child has a problem? I think your child has a problem. Did he drink white wine with Chinese medicine? If you don't abstain from smoking, drinking, and spicy food, and then something goes wrong, it's your own fault!"
Wang Pangzi, being a big boss, spoke with full confidence!
His aura was quite intimidating!
The surrounding voices immediately quieted down a lot.
Shopkeeper Liu inside the counter also showed a grateful expression.
The burly man in the lead, however, narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at Wang Pangzi before speaking, "I say, brother, my brother is like this, and you're still making sarcastic remarks. Aren't you in cahoots with this pharmacy?"
"Bullshit! I, Wang Pangzi, conduct myself uprightly in Sijiucheng. If I were in cahoots with this Hundred Herbs House, I would have kicked you out long ago. Do I, your grandpa, need to waste my breath talking to you here?!"
Wang Pangzi cursed, spitting saliva all over the burly man's face.
Such fierce momentum was quite terrifying!
The burly man wiped the saliva from his face, his temper flared, and with a wave to someone behind him, a group of people stepped forward!
"Fatty, you're looking for trouble!"
"Damn it, who forgot to zip up their pants and exposed themselves to you!"
"It's really strange, in this day and age, people still step forward to help others without knowing their limits?!"
...
A group of people facing one person, the oppressive aura was naturally very strong!
But how could they know that Wang Pangzi, who appeared to be a brute on the surface, was actually meticulous? He reached out and took out a walkie-talkie!
"Are the people in the venue all here?"
*Chirp chirp...*
A voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Master Pang, everyone has been called over. One hundred and twenty people. Is that enough!"
