Chapter 3 My Bottle
He used his true energy to push, without any movement at all. Sun Ming's statement is merely an attempt to place blame on him, demonstrating a sinister intent.
Zhou Bapi and Sun Ming stared blankly at the enormous fist print on the counter, completely dumbfounded
Upon thinking of this, Wang Ke's smile widened even more. He immediately sidestepped, while secretly channeling his energy to give a push in the direction Zhou Bapi was advancing.
Zhou Bapi shouted at Wang Ke
My bottle! My bottle!
No! No!
Seeing Sun Ming's cowardly demeanor, Wang Ke scoffed disdainfully and turned to Zhou Bapi on the ground, seemingly speaking in a friendly manner: "Bapi, your theory is quite advanced. Am I not allowed to dodge when you hit me? Is it my fault for dodging? Then let me hit you once and see if you dare not to dodge!"
Oh, by the way, you just reminded me that I haven't deducted your late fee today. For each instance of tardiness, one day's salary will be deducted, which is fifty. Never mind, I will show some kindness and not deduct one hundred from you today; I will just deduct fifty instead
Wang Ke couldn't help but curl his lips at the words, as he had some knowledge of antiques and the intricacies behind them
Yes, it is all your fault. I saw it; it was because you were avoiding the boss that you bumped into the vase, and you even had the intention to push him. It is indeed your fault
With a painful wail from Zhou Bapi, a crisp sound of porcelain shattering echoed throughout the Treasure Hall
As he spoke, Zhou Guisheng swiftly reached out and snatched the fifty yuan from Wang Ke's hand, stuffing it into his own pocket
Zhou Bapi looked down in pain at his beloved porcelain vase, crying out loudly in despair
Having finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the door
Sun Ming was so frightened by Wang Ke's gaze that he involuntarily took a few steps back, unable to utter a word. That gaze was truly terrifying, making him feel as if he had fallen into a cold, icy hell
And who could have known that once I started working, time would slip out of my control for so long? Now, everything is fine; there is nothing left to do, and I can engage in the things I enjoy.
This is high-quality nanmu wood
This ... ...
If I could find a magical artifact, that would be even more wonderful
With his fists tightly clenched, Wang Ke coldly stared at Zhou Guisheng and sneered, "No wonder everyone calls you Zhou Papi. Today, I finally witnessed it for myself"
I ... ... I ... ...
The two of them swallowed hard, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at Wang Ke. Zhou Bapi's inner fury had long since vanished without a trace; under such a deep and large fist imprint, he dared not utter another word, let alone mention the matter of asking Wang Ke for compensation.
Since he unearthed the "Dragon Elephant" from beneath the old locust tree in his hometown at the age of ten, he developed a profound interest in the esoteric. For twelve years, apart from practicing the Dragon Elephant technique, he spent all his spare time studying the "I Ching" in addition to his academic studies. His dream was to become a master of the I Ching, to comprehend the principles of yin and yang, to see through all things in the world, and ultimately transcend life and death
Zhou Bapi felt deeply humiliated, and with a roar, he swung his fist towards Wang Ke.
Zhou Bapi experiences a painful sensation akin to biting down on a broken tooth and swallowing blood; now he dares not think at all about the hundred thousand.
Once he reacted, the inner fury instantly surged to a peak, ready to erupt at any moment
Sun Ming immediately stood up and sternly accused Wang Ke.
It is said that one has already been compassionate enough, having added so many troubles for oneself; not making him pay for it is already a good outcome
Zhou Bapi was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hands
Everything is Wang Ke's fault, it's all him! If he hadn't hidden away, how could my 100,000 yuan have disappeared!
If you dare not to hide, I will dare to compensate you one hundred thousand. Come, let us sign the agreement.
What’s wrong? Are you angry? Zhou Bapi?
Wang Ke stepped forward and pressed, "If you don't show some strength, do you really think I'm a soft persimmon"
What would it feel like for a miser to personally crash and watch one hundred thousand yuan being destroyed by their own hands
Looking around, Wang Ke's gaze finally settled on the antique stall.
Zhou Bapi's eyes were constantly darting around; having just lost 100,000 yuan, he certainly did not want to incur further losses. ... However, if he did not give ...
I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable about antiques, hoping to find a hidden gem. Perhaps I could strike it rich in an instant, and then I would no longer have to worry about my livelihood.
Zhou Gui was so angry that he almost jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. In his life, he hated being called "Zhou the Skinner" more than anything else
One hundred thousand yuan just disappeared like that
Zhou Bapi had completely lost his sanity at this moment, his face contorted with a fierce expression
Although I still do not understand the "I Ching" to this day, I have been continuously striving in this direction.
My poor one hundred thousand yuan
Zhou Bapi swung his fist and charged towards the porcelain vase he cherished. Just as it seemed he was about to knock it over, he suddenly realized in horror that his body was out of control.
Wang Ke felt he had heard a tremendous joke and said: "Zhou Bapi, has your brain been knocked silly? You broke it, and now you want me to compensate? Fine, I, bah!"
Wang Ke comforted himself
He pulled out six bills from his wallet, tossed them onto the counter, and disdainfully said, "I don't owe you anything!"
Wang Ke smiled faintly and said to Zhou Bapi
It is too terrifying
Sun Ming shuddered in fear and hurried to tidy up
At this thought, Zhou Ba and *Tu* suddenly raised their heads and glared fiercely at Wang Ke, who was sitting beside them with a relaxed expression. A surge of anger erupted from the depths of their hearts, and they shouted at Wang Ke: "Wang Ke, you owe me for the porcelain vase! Compensate me with one hundred thousand yuan!"
However, he is also very aware that a hobby can only remain a hobby until it generates economic effects, so he took a job at an antique shop to support himself, which would also provide him with the financial foundation to realize his dreams
Wang Ke stared blankly at his empty hands, momentarily at a loss for words
Wang Ke took the money with a cold smile, looking at the cash in his hand, and let out a slight sigh of relief. It would have been difficult to take action against Zhou Bapi if he hadn't complied; taking action would only lead to trouble with the police. Since he was sensible, it saved Wang the trouble.
Wang Ke was so furious that he could not speak, having never seen anyone skinned alive to such an extent before
Zhou Guisheng nodded in satisfaction, and Sun Ming immediately put on a look of being flattered and surprised
Wang Ke said with a cold smile, word by word, that he truly wanted to see what Zhou Bapi could do to him
What the hell did you just say?
What are you saying? Who is Zhou Bapi?
Having worked here for six months, he knows every corner of the store like the back of his hand. Behind him, in the direction where Zhou Bapi rushed, there is a Qianlong porcelain vase worth 100,000.
What is going on
Go ahead, hit me! Hurry up and hit me! If you hit me, I can fight back!
After speaking, Sun Ming cast a sinister smile at Wang Ke, then turned to Zhou Guisheng, seemingly inquiring whether his actions were appropriate.
Had I known this method was effective, I would have used it long ago
This fellow is truly foolish, disregarding the money that is rightfully his
Zhou Bapi looked at the precious porcelain vase in front of him in panic, realizing that no matter how he moved, he could not change the course ahead, and could only watch in terror as he crashed into it.
Zhou Bapi gritted his teeth in pain, took out 1,500 yuan from the counter with great care, and handed it to Wang Ke, fearing that this fierce person might suddenly explode in anger
Sun Ming now feels a surge of panic within him; he has begun to regret his actions. Having offended Wang Ke so gravely just now, will he seek revenge against him?
If you hadn't avoided me, how could I have broken it! It's all your fault!
Turning his head to look at Sun Ming, who was so frightened that his face lost all color and wore a cowardly expression, Zhou Bapi was instantly filled with rage. He shouted at Sun Ming, "Why aren't you quickly tidying up? See if you can still stick it on!"
Little brother, come and take a look at these antiques. They have just been brought back from the countryside and are definitely good items
You
Wang Ke coldly looked at Sun Ming upon hearing this and asked in a chilling voice: "Which of your eyes saw me push him?"
One should not trust what antique sellers say at all; they all claim to have sourced their items from the countryside. But where in the countryside could there possibly be so many antiques for them to find
Forget it! Just consider it a way to avoid disaster by losing some money
Seeing Zhou Bapi infuriated and embarrassed, Wang Ke's anger actually diminished significantly, as he looked at the other party with a sense of amusement
Upon receiving the order from Zhou Guisheng, Sun Ming immediately cleared his throat and spoke like a rooster ready for battle: "The contract indeed states that being late once results in a deduction of the day's wages. However, the last clause of the contract clearly states that the final interpretation rights belong to our establishment. Moreover, your instances of tardiness are excessive, and it is reasonable to impose a penalty of 100. If you feel the deduction is excessive, you may approach the Labor Association to lodge a complaint against us; we are always ready to engage!"
Ah—
So, will you pay my salary or not
Of course, Wang Ke knew that he was daydreaming. How many people fantasize about finding ancient artifacts at a bargain, and how many think about acquiring magical tools at a discount? It was unlikely that it would happen to him. Nevertheless, he still smiled and walked towards the nearby antique stall, even if just to practice his skills.
Since he is no longer an employee of the store, there is no need for him to feign compassion. Why not deduct the money that should be deducted? Not only should it be deducted, but the amount deducted should make him wish he were dead.
Whether as an unemployed drifter or not, at least one can do what one truly wishes to do
But in the end, I still endured it; murder is a crime
Today, he finally witnessed the true nature of the legendary Zhou Bapi
Clear context, shocking!
However, one should first address the issue of sustenance. The effectiveness of the Dragon Elephant Skill cannot be achieved without the foundation of various rare medicinal materials, which also requires substantial financial resources. Therefore, he must prioritize making money first
Thinking of the consequences of that punch landing on himself, he felt a wave of fear, and his body involuntarily trembled
Upon leaving the Gathering of Treasures Hall, Wang Ke looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh
He instinctively glanced at the fist imprint on the counter and couldn't help but shiver
Zhou Bapi looked at Wang Ke's back with lingering fear, then glanced at the porcelain on the ground, feeling a pang of heartache. However, the six hundred yuan provided him with some comfort
A vendor in his forties shouted at Wang Ke
This punch, if it lands on him, will either leave him dead or crippled; let alone one hundred thousand, he wouldn't even dare to face one million!
Upon seeing this, Wang Ke was about to take action when suddenly something occurred to him, and a faint sinister smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth
As he spoke, a glint flashed in his eyes, and Wang Ke swung his fist, striking the nearby locust wood counter.
With a sinister smile, a massive fist imprint suddenly appeared on the locust wood counter
He truly wished to knock down the voracious individual before him with a single punch, leaving him utterly unrecognizable
From now on, he is just an unemployed drifter, with a complexity in his heart that is hard to express
One hundred thousand
You bastard, I will say it again, Zhou! Strip!
Just like that, a fist imprint was smashed out
