Chapter 1423 Rent Collection
However, at this moment, the adults on the side hurried over and pulled the two siblings back to their own grocery store. They ignored Lin Haoran's kindness and even looked at Lin Haoran with some vigilance. The child's father even glared slightly and showed some threatening expressions.
Lin Haoran, holding two desserts in his hand, felt helpless, shook his head and smiled, and then put the two desserts back on the table.
Looking at the two desserts on the table, Lin Haoran smiled helplessly and couldn't help but pick up the spoon and eat it.
After reaching my own level, I actually rarely eat, but it is precisely because after practicing, I have a better grasp of many things, and the things I make seem to taste good.
Under the night, Lin Haoran suddenly realized that there seemed to be a group of people coming from the shop next door. If Lin Haoran remembered correctly, the group of people should be the landlord of this shop. However, logically speaking, it was not time to collect rent. Seeing this, Lin Haoran couldn't help but move a stool and sit at the door, with his ears slightly erected under the eaves next door.
"Stop talking nonsense. Starting today, your rent will double, otherwise you will move me away. This is a prime location, and there are so many people who want to rent it!" The landlord's voice was loud and arrogant. There were three or five big men behind him, and he seemed to be a martial artist, but Lin Haoran did not sense the aura of cultivation from them.
"Uncle, you can do it, okay, the rent has increased last month. This... it has not been half a month and it will double again. This... how can you let us live!" Hearing the voice was the child's mother, the voice revealed a full pleading intention, and the voice seemed to have kneeled down.
"Okay? Do you think I am a Bodhisattva? Bodhisattvas also need to burn incense frequently. Labor and capital will give you half a moment to consider, otherwise don't blame me for bringing people to move for you!" The landlord said coldly, then took a group of people out and sat on the steps at the door of the store.
At the same time, when he just walked out, he happened to see Lin Haoran sitting at the door with a stool. Lin Haoran smiled at him, and the landlord was stunned, but then he looked at Lin Haoran in a minute and then sat there waiting.
In less than half a moment, the landlord went into the grocery store again and said loudly: "Are the money ready?"
After a few seconds of silence, the landlord suddenly said coldly: "Take it!"
Then a loud noise came, with the sound of people shouting and scolding, the sound of children crying, and the sound of couples in the grocery store begging.
Suddenly... a scream made Lin Haoran squint slightly, and then a tender voice came out: "Don't hit my mother, don't hit my mother!"
It was the sound of stone, Lin Haoran could hear it clearly. When he heard this, he suddenly stood up.
Shi Tou stood in front of his mother, looking at the vicious adults in front of him, he felt a little scared and his body was trembling. But he knew that his father often taught him that he would become a manly man and protect women in the future, and that this was his mother.
The thoughts in his heart made Shitou stand firmly in front of his mother, and a blood mark on his forehead behind him and a bright red ray of light remained, and he was about to fall into a coma at this moment.
In front of the stone, a big man was holding an iron stick in his hand. The iron stick was sold in the grocery store. Just now, the boss came forward to stop him, and the big man immediately hit her forehead with a stick.
When Shi Tou's father wanted to come up to protect him, he was held down by several big men and could not move at all. Lingling even pulled her father's thighs, so afraid that her face turned pale and her tears could not be stopped, but she did not dare to speak out, she was extremely scared.
"You let him go, he is still a child, he is still a child!" Shi Tou's father stopped when he saw everyone's movements, then looked at Shi Tou and couldn't help speaking anxiously.
He knew who the landlord was, but their rents rose too fast, all because it seemed that their business was pretty good. However, if the price continued to increase, they would not only not be able to afford the rent, but even their lives would be difficult.
This landlord has always been like this. When he sees good business, he will raise the price, and he will ignore the bad ones.
The landlord had a fat face and was obese. At this moment, he squatted down with some difficulty and looked at Shi Tou and said, "Little kid, do you want to protect your mother?"
Shi Tou still had tears on his face. Although he was afraid, he nodded and his small fist blocked his face.
However, the landlord suddenly burst into laughter and looked back at the group of people he was carrying, and the group of people also burst into laughter.
"I like this kid, take him back!" The landlord waved his hand and a big man walked towards the stone.
However, at this moment, a sound came slowly.
"How much rent do they have to pay? I'll help them get it!" This voice was Lin Haoran.
Everyone paused, and a group of big men looked at the landlord, and the landlord waved his hand and moved aside, and then saw Lin Haoran standing at the door of the grocery store.
The landlord naturally knew his tenant. He couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Oh, I didn't expect that Boss Lin is indeed a person who makes a lot of money. The grocery store doesn't have to pay much rent, just 100 spirit stones. How about it... Do you want to help him pay?"
However, just as the landlord finished speaking, a pair of spirit stones appeared in front of the landlord with Lin Haoran's hand.
Seeing this move, the group of hot men behind the landlord looked at each other, and saw a look of fear in each other's eyes. It was obvious that Lin Haoran was actually a monk.
The landlord also paused, but then he laughed, waved his hand and asked someone to pack the hundred spirit stones. Then he glanced at Lin Haoran and quickly left with a group of people.
They were obviously quite afraid of Lin Haoran's identity as a monk, and the landlord also received the money. The landlord was also very smart about the people who couldn't touch them, so he naturally knew to retreat first.
After the group of people left, Lin Haoran walked into the grocery store and saw the proprietress who was already in a coma. He couldn't help but sigh. He looked at the stone blocking his mother. Lin Haoran smiled and said, "Shitou, can you please let uncle see your mother? Uncle can treat the disease!"
