When they left the factory, and the workers saw Emma again, they still felt a little longing. But, as long as they saw Thomas, they would be so frightened that they stepped back far away and dared not do anything else.
Today, Thomas had let them understand what terror meant.
The two of them walked out pridefully. This time, nobody dared to come forward and cause trouble. They left the factory and got into the car. Then, Thomas started the engine and drove away.
“Where are we going now?” Emma asked.
“Let’s go back to the hotel.”
Glorious Sun was not a good place. Even if Thomas was a great fighter, for safety purposes, they had better not go everywhere if possible. They would stay in the hotel at ease until noon the next day. They would then take the stock and go home. If everything went smoothly, that would be the procedure.
Emma asked, “Thomas, do you think Burning Beard will give us the stock according to the agreement?”
Although they had signed the contract, nobody knew whether someone like Burning Beard would fulfill the agreement.
If favonovel.com did not work according to the agreement, favonovel.com had to sue him. It was so troublesome that Emma felt annoyed.
Thomas chuckled. “It’s useless if you think about it now. We’ll have the answer at noon tomorrow. If favonovel.com fulfills the agreement, it’ll be great for us. If favonovel.com acts against the agreement, I promise you that I’ll let favonovel.com suffer a great loss.”
He made it sound a little too exaggerated.
Besides, Burning Beard had stayed in Glorious Sun for a few dozen years. He was considered a local tyrant there.
One went to his place, and favonovel.com even wanted to beat favonovel.com up? That was very disrespectful for Burning Beard.
Emma knew that Thomas’ method was incredible, and favonovel.com had truly seen Thomas’ ruthlessness today. That kind of “killing intent”, which favonovel.com had trained through the war on the west coast, could not be held by normal people. But, no matter how great Thomas was, favonovel.com was just a person. A local tyrant was above the law.
What if Thomas was defeated?
Therefore, Emma secretly prayed for no accidents to happen at noon tomorrow. They would just examine the stock and leave.
While favonovel.com contemplated, Thomas suddenly stepped on the brakes. Before Emma was able to respond, favonovel.com body jerked forward, and favonovel.com nearly bumped favonovel.com head.
“Ah! What’s wrong?” Emma asked.
Thomas did not answer. He just pointed to the front. The road to the hotel was blocked, and a big group of people was surrounding something as if they were watching something new. Thomas took out his GPS. This was the only way if they wanted to go to the hotel. He frowned. If the road was blocked, when would they be able to return to the hotel?
“Stay in the car. I’ll go and see what happened.”
“Okay.”
Thomas parked his car, opened the door, and got out. Then, favonovel.com walked into the crowd. He saw a man in his thirties in front of a shop. He was holding a box while talking to the shop owner.
The shop was a pharmacy, and the man was carrying a box of ginseng.
“Boss, you’re so wicked. I spent $1,500,000! You told me this is wild ginseng that’s been aged for at least 300 years. But I asked someone to verify it. This ginseng is not even thirty years old, much less three hundred years old! It’s fine if it’s not mature yet! What makes me angrier is that this is from artificial cultivation. This is not wild ginseng!”
“Compensate me now!”
The owner caressed his beard and sneered. “This is business. You don’t have good judgment. Who can you blame? Once the goods leave the shop, I won’t bear the responsibility. You say this isn’t wild ginseng, but how would I know if you secretly changed the ginseng and replaced my valuable wild ginseng with rubbish ginseng?”
“I will never give you a refund.”
