Heaven Defying Formation Mage

Chapter 512
Being robbed by shopkeeper Hao, Wu's second child's face immediately flushed red.He wasn't guilty or ashamed, he was just annoyed by Shopkeeper Hao.

"You...the mahogany you sold to me two days ago, I have a receipt written by you! I'm here today, you, you must give me an explanation!" Wu Er Er's neck was so thick that he stared at it. Shopkeeper Hao was panting heavily.

At this time, the customers in Tianji Timber Shop had already gathered around. Among them, many people came to Tianji from other places to choose timber, and they were most afraid of encountering fraudulent shopkeepers.Therefore, as soon as they saw a dispute, they immediately asked the people beside them curiously about the whole story.

It turned out that Wu's second son bought a few pieces of wood from Tianji Timber two days ago, and planned to make a dressing table for his new daughter-in-law who was about to pass the door.But who knows, when a carpenter was invited to repair the dressing table today, the carpenter found two pieces of iron pear wood among the few pieces of mahogany.Apparently, it was Tianji wood who mixed the wood of iron pear flower wood with mahogany and sold it to himself at a high price.Wu Laoer was so angry that he rushed to Tian Ji Timber to settle accounts with shopkeeper Hao.

After listening to Mr. Wu explain the whole story, shopkeeper Hao smiled coldly: "Mr. Wu, I did sell you a few pieces of wood a few days ago, but those are all high-quality mahogany, and we paid for them with one hand and delivered them with the other It’s clear! It’s been two days, and you came to say that I sold you iron pear flower wood, who knows if you deliberately changed the wood to falsely accuse us?”

"I, Wu Lao Er, never lie!" Wu Lao Er said angrily, "Shopkeeper Hao, you don't want to bully customers!"

"Second Wu, what you said is wrong! Our Tianji Timber is also a well-known signboard. There is so much business every day, and there is no shortage of your few pieces of wood. If you don't believe me, come with me to the warehouse to have a look. In our warehouse There are hundreds of mahogany sticks there, who cares about latte pear blossoms? Doesn’t it mean that you have smashed your own signboard?” Shopkeeper Hao stroked his beard and shook his head, “In my opinion, you are thinking about money. Are you crazy, you came here to blackmail us Tian Ji Timber? Don’t even see if this is the place for you to run wild!"

After finishing speaking, shopkeeper Hao's face sank immediately, pouted his mouth and said, "Come here, kick this second Wu out of here!"

Several guys with big arms and round waists rushed out immediately, grabbed Wu's second brother by the arm and dragged him out forcibly.

Wu Er Er's eyes were red with anxiety, but he was no match for those guys, so he could only shout loudly: "You Tian Jimu has no conscience! There will be retribution sooner or later!"

"Second Wu, if you keep messing around, I'll report to the authorities!" Shopkeeper Hao slapped the table unwilling to show weakness, and shouted with glaring eyes, "Everyone is in business, and peace is the most important thing. I didn't want to tear myself apart with you, But if you continue to slander the reputation of my Tianji Timber, then I will not be polite! At that time, your small workshop will not even think about it!"

When he yelled like this, many spectators suddenly understood a little bit, and began to chatter.

"It turns out that Wu's second child is also in business. Could it be that Tian Ji Timber robbed him of his business, so he came here to find fault?"

"How can a shop as big as Tianji Timber covet his two pieces of mahogany? This man must be here to blackmail him!"

"Fortunately, shopkeeper Hao is generous and doesn't care about it. If he reports to the official, I'm afraid Wu's second son's business will be lost!"

Everyone said one sentence to another, and almost no one thought that Tianji Lumber Shop was a big bully, but Wu Lao Er deliberately came to find fault with Hei's century-old shop.

Mo Xingnian looked at shopkeeper Hao unwillingly after seeing Wu's second child being kicked out, but in the end he could only leave sadly.With a move in her heart, she tugged on Lamehaxiu's sleeve: "Xiu, let's go!"

People like Mo Haxiu would come forward as soon as they saw the excitement, so he had been paying close attention to Wu's second move.As soon as Mo Xingnian said to leave, he immediately realized that Xing Nian wanted to follow Wu's second child to understand the situation, so he grabbed Mo Xingnian's hand and led the way to chase him.

The two chased for a street before they caught up with Wu's second son who was full of anger.Mo Xingnian winked at Mo Haxiu, and Mo Haxiu stretched out his hand with a smile to block the way of Wu Er Er.

Seeing someone stopping him, Wu Er Er couldn't help being startled, and subconsciously thought that the person from Tian Ji Wood came to trouble him, so he couldn't help taking two steps back: "What do you want to do?"

"It's nothing. We originally wanted to buy goods from Tianji Timber, but just now I heard you say that their shop is a big bully, so I want to know what's going on." Mo Xingnian said softly, with a slight smile on his face to show that he didn't care. No malice.

Hearing that the two of them were not from Tianji Timber, Wu Lao Er heaved a sigh of relief, and then said in frustration: "Anyway, I was tricked by them! I advise you, it is best not to buy from him! If it is a big business, maybe He doesn’t dare to cheat you. But if someone like me has no background and does a small business, he has no place to reason after being dumb!” Originally, he ran to Tian Ji Timber to settle accounts with shopkeeper Hao on impulse, but now , His emotions also calmed down, knowing that the other party could not admit the fact that it was shoddy, let alone compensate him.This matter can only be regarded as a dumb loss, so forget it!

After listening to Wu's second son's description, Mo Xingnian and Mo Haxiu looked at each other, and then asked, "Brother Ang, can we go to your house to see the wood?"

"If you want to see it, just watch it! I bought the wood and put it in the yard without moving it at all! If the carpenter hadn't come here today, I wouldn't even know I was cheated!" Wu Er Er waved his hand and said with a sigh .

Following Wu Lao Er to his house, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw five logs piled up in the yard. Mo Xingnian stepped forward and took a closer look, and sure enough, two logs were slightly darker in color.

"Here, it's these two." Wu Er Er pointed to the two iron pear trees, and sighed again, "I'm unlucky! Anyway, the iron pear trees can also be used for furniture, but it costs the money of mahogany, but in exchange for I feel really uncomfortable after buying the iron pear wood furniture."

This is like paying a lot of money for a gold necklace, only to find it is copper.Although both can be worn around the neck, the feeling is much worse.

Mo Xingnian stretched out his hands to touch the two iron pear trees, raised his head and asked, "Brother Ang, Tianji Timber has been in business for so long, are you the only one who has encountered such shoddy things?"

"In fact, others have encountered it before, but ordinary people can't afford to offend the Tian family. They can only smash their teeth and swallow it like me, thinking they are unlucky!" Wu Laoer looked at the two iron pear flowers, feeling extremely aggrieved up.

Mo Xingnian stood up, looked around, and found that there was a graphite in Wu Er Er's house, and there were several wooden barrels and wooden shelves beside him, so he couldn't help asking curiously: "Brother Ang, what kind of workshop is this?" ?”

"What kind of workshop! I'm just a tofu seller!"

It turns out that the small workshop that Shopkeeper Hao mentioned is this small yard that makes tofu?He also kept saying that everyone is in business, obviously deliberately leading everyone to think that Wu's second child is also a big business man, and that the troubles in Lai Tian Ji Timber are due to the jealousy of his peers!This shopkeeper Hao is really cunning and cunning!

Mo Xingnian thought about it, and didn't stop any longer, she took out a piece of silver from her bosom and stuffed it into Mr. Wu's second hand: "Brother Wu, thank you for telling us this, otherwise, we might be deceived too! This silver is a little bit of our kindness, and it should be used as compensation for your loss in buying wood!"

Wu Laoer looked down, and immediately pushed back the silver: "I am blind, and I didn't inspect the goods on the spot, so how can I ask for your silver as compensation! Little girl, take it back quickly! I don't want so much silver!"

That ingot of silver was a total of 50 taels, enough for Wu Laoer to buy two new mahogany lumber.

"Brother Ang, actually I have something else to ask." Mo Xingnian stuffed the money back into Mr. Wu's second hand, and said quickly, "I know the true face of Tian's wood, but I'm afraid that my family won't listen to my advice and insist on asking for it." Go to Tianji to buy wood. If my family is fooled, please ask Brother Ang to come forward and be a witness for me!"

"Don't worry! If you want to sue Tian Ji Timber, I will definitely testify for you! At that time, I will call Lao Zhang and others who have been deceived!" Wu Er Er patted his chest, agreed, and accepted it logically. Down the silver.

Mo Haxiu has rarely seen Mo Xingnian so generous. After leaving Wu Laoer's house, he has been staring at Mo Xingnian, and said in his mouth: "I didn't expect Xingnian, who has always been a fan of money, to become a money-spreading boy today." Already!"

Mo Xingnian gained a lot today, so he joked with him in a great mood, put on a flirtatious look and hummed: "Things that can be solved with money are nothing serious!"

"Yes, yes, yes! You are right! Should I also pay back the several hundred taels of silver you owe me?" Mo Haxiu raised his brows, deliberately bringing up old debts again.

Mo Xingnian replied two words without thinking: "Don't think about it!"

After Tian Pangpang and He Cha visited their second uncle Tian Zhongguo, they waited anxiously in the yard for Mo Xingnian and Mo Haxiu to come back. Even Tian Pangpang's mother asked Tian Pangpang and He Cha to come in for dinner several times. Both shied away on the grounds that they were not hungry.

"Why haven't Xing Nian and Xiu come back? I didn't even eat any food because I was waiting for them!" Tian Pangpang mumbled vaguely while looking outside the courtyard.

He Cha turned his head and looked at him quietly: "Mr. Tian, ​​you've already eaten three catties of mung bean cakes. After you finish eating these two chicken legs, you probably won't be able to eat anymore, right?"

"What do you know? These are just snacks and have nothing to do with food!" Tian Pangpang declared, waving his fists, "Anyway, I have to let them know how much sacrifice I made to wait for them! "

As soon as the words fell, Mo Xingnian's voice came from outside the courtyard.

"Oh, we ran all day and didn't even bother to drink our saliva. This sacrifice is too great! If someone is willing to bring us some mung bean cakes and chicken legs to eat, that would be great!"
