Chapter 296 Zhou Li

For Li Zhenbang now, the sharing of spiritual power is simply prepared for today. Originally, he was thinking that it would be great if he could break through to the middle level of mental power, so that he would be more sure about the treatment of Zhang Dayou's father, but it turned out that he really broke through without warning.

Li Zhenbang stretched his waist, instead of a lazy bed, he got up and got dressed. This time, although there were no old couples selling dumplings outside the hotel, the morning market had already opened, and those hawkers selling vegetables and breakfast had already set up their stalls, waiting for customers to come to their door.

The vegetables in the morning market were very fresh, but this did not appeal to Li Zhenbang. He was wandering around, wanting to see if there was any food that could make his heart beat. At this time, a loud voice caught Li Zhenbang's attention, and many people had already surrounded him, and Li Zhenbang squeezed over curiously.

"Old guy, you're new here! You have to pay a booth fee to set up a stall here." Several young mercenaries in their twenties shouted around an old lady.

The old lady looked at the young people surrounding her booth in horror, and said with a trembling voice: "I don't know! This is my first time in Xingwang Town, I don't know the rules here, I haven't opened yet I'll sell it in a while, I'll pay it, I'll pay it!"

This kind of thing has long been familiar to Li Zhenbang, and this situation has long been an unspoken rule. Some mercenary regiments with gangster nature and background took advantage of their strength to occupy several commercial streets and collected protection fees on the streets.

These people are generally measured, as long as they pay money, they promise not to make trouble, and they will even help resolve disputes when encountering troublemakers. These mercenary groups have to spend part of their income every month to manage relationships in order to stabilize their status.

"Old guy, if you don't open today, don't you pay the booth fee today?"

"My lords, no, no. The buns I made are delicious and will definitely sell. You didn't eat breakfast, did you? Come on, try it, if it's delicious, help me bring a few more people over .” The old lady hastily took out a few steaming buns from the steamer and handed them over.

Several mercenaries saw that the old lady was quite capable, and they were quite satisfied, so they took the buns and bit them down. Although it is a vegetarian bun, the taste is really good. The mercenaries ate the buns in a few bites, and then looked at the old lady again.

"Old lady, your steamed stuffed bun tastes really good, bring me some more, we brothers are still hungry this morning!" The mercenaries naturally softened their tone after eating their food.

"This..." The old lady was a little embarrassed.

"My lords, please do me a favor. It's not easy for me to run a business as an old woman. My old man is still waiting for me to earn money to see a doctor! I'm also running a small business, so I really can't give you buns for nothing.

"The old lady begged.

"Who are you saying is eating for free? Let me tell you, we eat your buns to save face, and the buns can also be regarded as interest for your late payment of booth fees." A mercenary finished speaking arrogantly, and was about to uncover Take the steamer yourself.

Suddenly a big hand grabbed the mercenary's outstretched wrist, "You have to pay for food."

"Look for... uh..." The mercenary who was grabbed by the wrist was about to curse, but when he saw the person who grabbed his wrist, he suddenly seemed to be strangled by someone's neck, and didn't continue talking.

The person who grabbed the mercenary's hand was a middle-aged strong man. Although the weather had turned cold, he was still only wearing a sleeveless singlet, and the muscles on his arms seemed to be full of explosive strength.

The strong man shook his hand, and the mercenary stepped back a few steps, and sat down on the ground.

"Zhou Li, why do you always fight against our poisonous crocodile mercenary group? If our group leader hadn't said that he didn't have the same knowledge as you, you would have died on the street long ago!" Looking at Zhou Li.

"I'm not against anyone, I'm just being reasonable. If you're doing something wrong, I'm going to take action. Although I'm not satisfied with the booth fees you charge, this place was built with your hard work, and you have really done your part for the stability of the place. Make a certain contribution, and you also need to eat, otherwise do you think I will turn a blind eye? How much is the stall fee for this aunt? I paid for her." Zhou Li snorted coldly.

"A silver coin." The beaten mercenary lion said loudly.

The old lady's expression changed suddenly, one silver coin was worth one hundred copper coins, how many buns would she have to sell to earn one silver coin!

Zhou Li looked at the mercenary with a calm demeanor. "A silver coin? Very good! I must pay a visit to Lu Deming at noon, and I want to ask him, when did the booth fee become so expensive!"

The mercenary's face was covered with cold sweat. Lu Deming was the head of their poisonous crocodile mercenary group. Although Lu Deming was a bit indulgent to his subordinates, he would punish them severely if they touched his bottom line.

One silver coin is just a casual remark he made in a moment of anger. In fact, this small stall only needs ten copper coins. If this matter is small, it is a random change of the charging standard, and if it is big, it is the property of the greedy ink mercenaries No matter what kind it is, he can't even think about it.

"Zhou Li, I'm just kidding, in fact, only ten copper coins are enough." The mercenary who was still arrogant just now had to keep smiling.

"Ten copper coins, the price is quite reasonable." Zhou Li took out ten copper coins from his purse and threw them to the mercenary.

The mercenary took the copper coins and was about to take the people away, but Zhou Li stopped him.

"Did I let you go?"

"Zhou Li, what exactly do you want?" The mercenary looked at Zhou Li angrily.

"This aunt has already paid the booth fee, shouldn't you also pay the bun money?" Zhou Li's voice was flat, but everyone could hear the threat in his tone. If these mercenaries don't pay, he Will definitely do it again.

The mercenaries looked at each other. If they paid the money, how could they hang around here in the future, but if they didn't, Zhou Li would definitely beat up his group. Zhou Li was a silver warrior, and it was no problem to beat them.

"No, no, I gave them food, and they don't need to pay for it." The old lady hurriedly gave Zhou Li a hand and explained with a smile.

"Since this aunt is not going to pursue the matter, then you guys go away! If I find out that you are committing crimes again, I will definitely beat you to the ground." Zhou Li raised his fist and swung it twice fiercely.

Several mercenaries gave the peddlers and passers-by who were watching fiercely, and everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and went to their own ways.

Seeing the mercenaries walking away, the old lady let out a sigh of relief, thanked Zhou Li non-stop, and offered to give Zhou Li a bun, but Zhou Li refused. Zhou Li knew in his heart that if he offended these mercenaries, the old lady might not have any business today, but he had no choice, he couldn't force others to come over to eat buns!

"Ma'am, here are five steamed buns." Zhou Li was surprised to see a ten-year-old boy come and sit down beside the aunt's booth. He didn't expect that someone would dare to come here before those mercenaries left. eat buns.

The old lady was also taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect the business to come so soon.

"Ma'am, five buns! I won't give you money like they did." Li Zhenbang looked at the old lady with a smile and joked.

"Kids really know how to joke, here are five buns! I just started selling them today. I don't have meat, only vegetables." The old lady put a plate of steaming buns on Li Zhenbang's table, and said lovingly.

Li Zhenbang picked up a steamed stuffed bun, took a bite, the taste was really good, lingering in the mouth, with endless aftertaste, although there was no meat, it still had a special flavor. Li Zhenbang ate a big bun in a few mouthfuls, picked up another one and started eating.

"Ma'am, give me five too! Seeing how delicious his food is, I'm hungry too, hehe!" Zhou Li sat on the opposite side of Li Zhenbang.

"Here we come!" The old lady quickly placed another plate of buns in front of Zhou Li.

Li Zhenbang and Zhou Li looked at each other, they didn't speak, but they both saw a smile in each other's eyes.

"Give me two." "I want two too."...

The people around saw the two sitting there eating without any scruples, and they all clamored to buy it. But they didn't sit there to eat, but wrapped them in kraft paper and took them away. It was not easy for them to take the initiative to buy buns. They didn't have the courage to sit there and eat like Li Zhenbang and Zhou Li...

"Zhenbang, Omega, you're here!" Zhang Dayou had been waiting in front of the courtyard long ago.

The whole night, Zhang Dayou lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, and finally stopped sleeping at all, and stood at the gate of the courtyard waiting.

"Dayou, don't worry, we have studied the method, and uncle will definitely recover." Li Zhenbang's confident smile gave Zhang Dayou great confidence.

This time, only Li Zhenbang and Omega came over, and Zhang Dayou led them into the house. Zhang Dayou's father was still sleeping, and he didn't sleep well last night, and fell asleep only after it was light.

Li Zhenbang stopped Zhang Dayou from waking up his father. Sufficient rest is good for the recovery of the body.

Suddenly, Zhang Dayou's father frowned, and slowly opened his eyes.

"You are here." Zhang Dayou's father had a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and he greeted the two with the pain.

Li Zhenbang pressed lightly on Zhang Dayou's father's neck, and Zhang Dayou's father fell down slowly with darkness in front of his eyes.

"Zhenbang, what are you?" Zhang Dayou looked at Li Zhenbang suspiciously. Although his father passed out, Zhang Dayou didn't think that Li Zhenbang was doing his father a disservice.

"He's starting to be in pain again, and going into a coma will give him some relief."

Zhang Dayou saw that his father's brows were really relaxed. Although he frowned occasionally, it was obviously much better.
