Chapter 48 It's reasonable to beat you up to vent your anger and cheer you up, right?
The Zhang family member was stunned for a moment, thinking he had seen wrong, and unconsciously raised his hand to rub his eyes again.
But who was that sly, toothy grin who was fawning over the man and trying to charm him? Wasn't that the jinx who was deliberately targeting her?
But didn't Brother Biao and the others say that she would never dare to come to town again?
Could it be that I lied to her?
That damned bastard, he even dared to scam her.
The Zhang family's blood boiled with anger, and they were unsure whether to cause trouble at Lin Chang'er's stall first, or to go find Brother Biao and his gang to demand an explanation.
After taking several deep breaths, he managed to suppress his anger. Thinking that Brother Biao and his group were all strong and healthy men, while this group consisted of women, children, and infants, he still walked towards Lin Chang'er's stall.
Lin Chang'er worked incredibly fast, and within 25 minutes, she had almost sold out of both buckets of clams, a good number of duck eggs, and almost all the scallions.
The old lady's worries subsided. "I'll go home and pick some scallions right now."
Lin Chang'er nodded, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
The old lady was about to leave when someone squeezed into the stall, grabbed a swimming crab, and asked, "How much is this?"
Upon hearing the voice, Lin Chang'er immediately turned her head and saw that it was indeed Zhang the Triangle.
She always knew that such guesses meant trouble, and she was never one to make things difficult for herself.
These kinds of people are even less worth dealing with, but with so many people around right now, I can't make it too obvious.
I casually replied, "Blue crabs are 25 coins each, orchid crabs are 30 coins, and swimming crabs are 35 coins. How many do you want?"
The Zhang family member examined the crab in his hand from left to right. "This thing costs 35 coins? Why don't you just rob it?"
Lin Chang'er was attending to customers buying duck eggs. Hearing this, she wasn't in a hurry. She continued to select duck eggs for the customer while replying to her.
"I have clearly marked prices. Buying and selling are voluntary. If you think it's worth it, buy it. If not, I'm not forcing anyone. Every transaction is a cash transaction. I try my best to please the buyer. How can that be called robbery?"
The regular customers who were browsing around the stall nodded in agreement.
The old lady, who knew a bit about seafood, chimed in, "35 coins for a swimming crab isn't expensive at all. In the city, a crab of this size would cost at least 40 coins or more!"
A customer nearby added, "That's right, this young lady is not only good at business, but also at interpersonal relationships. Her products are fresh, and she offers free gifts with every purchase. If you buy a lot, she will give you a discount. Some things can't be said without thinking."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "I'm happy that everyone is happy with their purchases and enjoys their food."
Someone joked, "If you could lower the price even further, we'd be even happier!"
Lin Chang'er smiled ingratiatingly, "I'd like to, but I also need to eat, don't I?"
A burst of laughter erupted from the stall, and everyone seemed to have completely forgotten about the Zhang family, leaving the Zhang family member embarrassed and scratching their toes on the spot.
Lin Chang'er remembered this perfectly. Since she had come looking for trouble, she wasn't going to let her off easily. She deliberately asked the Zhang family member, "What do you say? Want one to try?"
Seeing so many people supporting her, the Zhang family felt even more disgusted, thinking that Lin Chang'er was indeed good at winning people's hearts.
First it was that old woman, then all these customers.
Should we then unite with all the vendors in the market to target her?
Now they dare to brazenly ask her if she wants to buy her things? Buy my ass!
The Zhang family member glared at Lin Chang'er furtively, then suddenly screamed, "Ouch! This crab bites!"
With a loud "bang," the swimming crab was slammed heavily to the ground.
The little goldfish, small in size but agile, immediately picked up the crab, held it in front of Lin Chang'er, and said with heartache, "It's not moving."
Lin Chang'er narrowed her eyes, but before she could speak, the Zhang family member, clutching his finger, questioned, "Your crab bit me, what do you have to say for yourself now?"
Lin Chang'er: "..." Her dad, is he crazy?!
This is such a clumsy act, trying to scam her. Who is he trying to disgust?
He twitched the corner of his lips. "That's strange. My crab's legs were all tied up properly, so how could it bite you? Were you sleepwalking?"
Zhang glared at them and said, "I don't care. If the crabs you sell bite someone, you have to compensate them."
Lin Chang'er sneered, "Compensation, is that it? Fine, then show everyone your wound, how big is it, and is it bleeding?"
Zhang Jia was stunned, clutching his hands tightly. "Everyone heard it, what are you looking at?"
I've been setting up a stall at this market for so many years, everyone who walks through the market knows me.
Would I possibly try to extort you?
Lin Chang'er was certain that there was no wound at all, and that she was just there to cause trouble. She scoffed, "I don't know if she's trying to extort me or not, I just stick to my principles."
If no one asks the price and you insist on holding onto the crab, the responsibility is 50/50. If you can provide evidence, I'll accept my bad luck.
But if you're just making baseless accusations and trying to extort money from me, and then your wounds heal on their own, then you're deliberately causing trouble. Let the uncles and aunts here judge for themselves.
Having said that, without giving the Zhang family a chance to defend themselves, they showed everyone the crab in their hands, saying, "As you all saw just now, my crab's legs are still tied up properly, how could it possibly bite her?"
I think she's just jealous of my good business, and she's deliberately trying to make things difficult for me, even deliberately killing my crabs.
Everyone knows her, right? She sells scallions. Her stall is not far ahead. If you're going to buy scallions from her stall next time, you'd better look carefully..."
Lin Chang'er stopped there, but the customers beside her nodded knowingly.
This is ruining her business. The Zhang family was furious. "Who is deliberately causing trouble? You are slandering me."
Lin Chang'er said forcefully, "Then let everyone see the wound!"
“That’s right, I don’t see that you were bitten at all.” Xu Gun’er was heartbroken for the crab that had been thrown to its death, as it was all caught with great effort by his sister Chang’er.
Once it dies, its value drops.
He immediately stepped forward, grabbed Zhang's wrist, pried open her hand that was covering it, and then her perfectly intact hand was exposed to the air.
Xu Gun'er shouted, "There are no wounds. You were lying after all. You're just here to cause trouble."
Seeing that their plan had been exposed, Zhang threw Xu Gun'er aside. Xu Gun'er, caught off guard, fell to the ground and knocked over a basket. Large sea duck eggs rolled all over the ground, many of them broken.
Lin Chang'er quickly helped Xu Gun'er up, then looked at the Zhang family with a sinister gaze, "These sea duck eggs of mine cost 4 coins each. You can calculate how much you owe them."
Upon hearing this, the Zhang family immediately jumped up and down, "He was the one who knocked it over, what does it have to do with me?"
"If you hadn't pushed him, would he have fallen?" Lin Chang'er stared at her coldly. "Stop talking nonsense, pay the full price, or else..."
"You're extorting money!" the Zhang family member screamed. "Everyone, come and see this woman's disgusting face! She's gone mad for money, demanding 35 coins one minute and compensation the next... Ah... you, how could you hit someone..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was met with a big laugh.
The Zhang family members covered their faces in horror as they looked at Lin Chang'er. This bitch, how could she actually lay a hand on someone? No... how could she, how dare she lay a hand on someone? Something felt off, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.
Lin Chang'er didn't miss the change in her eyes. She slowly rolled up her sleeves and said, "I'm a very reasonable person. I just don't like to be taken advantage of. You deliberately came here to cause trouble and broke my things. You don't want to pay for them, so it's reasonable for me to beat you up to vent my anger and have some fun, right?"
