Chapter 62: Who Says There's No Evidence?

  Facing Cao's cunning and deceitful words, Zhu Ganglie was furious. But a flash of inspiration in his mind made him calm down, and he suddenly realized that he didn't need to argue with this medicine seller at all, but could instead take the opportunity to get rid of the situation where he had been cheated out of money.

  With one move of his hand, Zhu Ganglie took back the card he had just handed out.

  Turning to Cao Yan, "Yan Yan, you also saw that it's not that I don't want to help you pay the money, but this guy is too much. Three million means nothing to me, even if it were thirty million, I wouldn't bat an eye. But just because we have money, we can't be taken advantage of and treated like a fool, right?"

  Cao Yan frowned, she also thought this was right, can't be slaughtered by people just because of having money, let alone such a slaughtering method that changes prices every now and then.

  But for some reason, she always felt that Zhu Ganglie had a small family atmosphere on him, and the magnanimity expressed in his words was contradictory when put together.

  She didn't respond to Zhu Ganglie, but instead looked at Qin Lang and said: "Xiao Lang, how much money is it?"

  "Two hundred thousand." Qin Lang replied firmly.

  "Food can be eaten carelessly, but words cannot be spoken carelessly. I clearly told you that the two medicinal materials cost thirty-one million, and after deducting the miscellaneous fees, it's thirty million. You think you can get the medicinal materials for twenty million? That's just a daydream."

  "It seems you were daydreaming." Hao Wei immediately stood up, pointing at Cao Yao Shi: "I can testify that you previously said you would sell for 200,000 yuan, and if it's not enough, you'd make up the difference yourself. How come what you said in broad daylight was just a dream, and now you're acting like nothing happened? No wonder it smells so bad."

  "Shut your mouth, kid." Cao Yao's face darkened as he glared at Hao Wei: "You said you can testify, but I'd like to ask, what exactly do you have to testify with? Not to mention that you're all in cahoots with each other, making your testimony invalid. Even if it were valid, could a few words really bring the dead back to life? If you want to accuse me, you need to produce solid evidence. Without evidence, it's just slander. Do you understand what slander means?"

  In the end, Cao Yao Shi couldn't help but feel triumphant. He was certain that these people wouldn't be able to produce any evidence and wouldn't be able to do anything to him.

  As expected, he's a hypocrite! Qin Lang narrowed his eyes, but suddenly saw a hint of a playful smile on Hao Wei's face, which made him somewhat puzzled.

  Qin Lang didn't know that at this time, Hao Wei was already laughing in his heart. If you say other things, Hao Wei doesn't have them, but as for the so-called evidence, he really wasn't lacking.

  Most importantly, he knew this was the best opportunity to show off in front of that young master. If handled properly, it would definitely leave a great impression on him.

  Adhering to the principle that a missed opportunity will never come again, Hao Wei leaned in close to Qin Lang and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I've got this covered today. I'll make sure it's done to your satisfaction."

  Qin Lang nodded slightly, but he was somewhat curious in his heart. This strange young man, what kind of confidence did he have to dare to make a bet with him? Even he himself hadn't thought it through, how to respond to this Cao Yaoshi's counterattack.

  Having received Qin Lang's response, Hao Weixing was ecstatic and immediately put on a high-and-mighty attitude, pointing at Cao Yao Shi and saying: "I won't bother explaining to you, go call your leader over."

  Old Yang saw the situation and feared that it would really provoke the leader, so he quickly put on a good face and said: "Everyone, there are many pharmacies in Ping'an City, why do you need to make things difficult for us? If we get into trouble, our business will be affected, and you will also get into trouble. Since this is the case, why don't we each take a step back and seek peace?"

  Hao Wei ignored him and stared at Cao Yao Shi instead.

  Cao Yao Shi let out a cold snort, "Want to see our leader? Ha ha, you're not even qualified, go home and take a look in the mirror, what kind of scallion are you?"

  "You're not going to call him, are you?" Hao Wei nodded, his face turning very ugly. "Alright, then I'll let your leaders come out themselves."

  Suddenly, Hao Wei shouted in a loud voice, "Come and see, come and see! Black-hearted shop, speaking without counting, playing rogue shamelessly..."

  Qin Lang was stunned.

  Cao Yan and Zhu Ganglie were stunned.

  Even Cao Yao Shi and Old Yang were both stunned.

  Everyone present did not expect that Hao Wei would suddenly come up with this move, which was clearly the posture of a shrew scolding on the street. Putting it on a young man who looked decent, it was awkward no matter how you looked at it.

  "What is this guy doing? Is this the way he can solve the problem and make me satisfied?" Qin Lang furrowed his brow, from the beginning he didn't understand the purpose of this young man, now even more couldn't see through the other's method.

  Of course, it's not just Qin Lang, others also have doubts in their hearts.

  Especially Cao Yan and Zhu Ganglie, the two of them previously thought that Hao Wei was a fake, but now Hao Wei suddenly did this, which completely confused them.

  Just when everyone had their own thoughts in mind, Hao Wei's continuous loud and crazy shouting finally began to take effect.

  Only a few customers who were buying medicine nearby came closer after hearing the noise and gradually approached the source of the sound.

  And some customers who were a bit further away and had sharper hearing also walked over this way.

  Add those shopping guides and other staff, in no time, the Chinese herbal medicine area was crowded with people.

  This is probably the most crowded gathering of people since the opening of the Chinese medicine market.

  The Chinese like to watch the excitement, this sentence is not wrong at all. Although most of those who come to Fugui Daxiyao Pharmacy to buy medicine are some high-end, dignified gold owners, they are also very interested in the excitement, just like the women and mothers on the streets.

  Hao Wei saw his own efforts, with remarkable results, and revealed a self-satisfied smile. His purpose was simple, just to make a big deal out of it, let the onlookers put pressure on the pharmacy, and then force the leader of the pharmacy to come out. At that time, he would throw out evidence in front of everyone, and even if Cao Yao Shi wanted to shirk responsibility, he wouldn't be able to.

  This move is the experience he has accumulated as a journalist all these years. If he had thrown out the evidence early on, Cao Yao Shi could still have denied it and even instructed someone to snatch his camera equipment and destroy the evidence. Even if he revealed his identity, the other party would probably pretend not to see him in order to cover up.

  Only by making a big deal out of it and getting the surrounding customers involved can the script be performed in the direction he expects.

  Hao Wei began to vividly describe the despicable character of Cao, the great pharmacist, to the surrounding crowd. The reporter's eloquence was indeed impressive, and in no time at all, Cao had become a swindler who cheated customers and lacked integrity in Hao Wei's words. As a result, the entire Fugui Pharmacy also became a black-hearted store.

  "Hmm, this guy is interesting." Qin Lang seemed to be deep in thought, he roughly figured out Hao Wei's purpose, and speculated in his heart that perhaps this person really had some evidence in hand, otherwise he wouldn't do such a thing.

  "Yanyan, I think we should avoid this for now. We are both people of status, being treated like monkeys, where can we put our faces?" Zhu Ganglie walked to Cao Yan's side and said in a low voice.

  Cao Yan let out a cold snort, "If you want to leave, then leave. I won't swallow this insult."

  Zhū Gāngliè's heart was bitter, and he secretly thought: "Damn it, if things go on like this, my money will be gone sooner or later."

  Cao Yan didn't leave and he couldn't either, so he had no choice but to stick with Cao Yan.

  Bang!

  A crisp sound.

  The teacup was smashed to the ground by Cao Yao's ashen face, he pointed at Hao Wei who was stirring up trouble and shouted: "What do you want to do? Security, security, Old Yang, quickly call security, this guy is ruining my image, smashing our signboard, can't let him continue making trouble."

  Old Yang also realized that things had gotten out of hand and hastily pulled out his phone to notify the security guard, but just as he picked it up, a loud voice burst forth.

  "What's wrong? What happened?"

  The speaker was a stout, middle-aged man with a strong physique and an extraordinary air about him. As soon as he opened his mouth, the onlookers around him couldn't help but stare.

  "Manager Zhang, you've come just in time. These people are causing trouble here." Cao Yao Shi's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the newcomer, and his short, stout body nimbly dodged through the counter to rush towards the middle-aged man.

  Manager Zhang, under the guidance of Cao Yao Shi, glanced at Qin Lang and his three companions one by one. His gaze lingered on Cao Yan for a moment, with a hint of lust flashing in his pupils before quickly disappearing without a trace.

  "You few think you can cause trouble here? I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place." Manager Zhang said with a scowl, narrowing his eyes.

  Hao Wei glanced at Qin Lang quietly and saw that he didn't intend to speak up, so he took the initiative to stand out and ask the middle-aged man: "Are you the leader of this pharmacy?"

  Manager Zhang looked at Hao Wei with disdain and snorted: "Right, I am the director in charge of the entire pharmacy operation."

  Hao Wei said: "That's just right, I want to talk to you about the quality of your employees." He then told Cao Yao Shi about the incident where he was cheated.

  Manager Zhang glared at Cao Yao Shi fiercely, then turned to Hao Wei and said calmly: "You're all talk and no action. If you want to report a problem, you need to bring evidence. Without evidence, I'll just think that you people are intentionally causing trouble. However, since this is your first offense, I'm giving you an opportunity to leave now. Just let the lady stay behind and write an apology letter, and we won't pursue this matter in our pharmacy."

  As he spoke, he pointed at Cao Yan, it was clear that the lady he mentioned was Cao Yan.

  Cao Yan's face changed suddenly, and although there were clearly four people, she was inexplicably left alone. The reason sounded plausible, but no matter how she listened to it, it made her feel like something was not quite right.

  She couldn't help but glance at Zhu Ganglie beside her, thinking to herself: You dare to openly ask me to stay behind, and you've been saying that you love me so much, now isn't it time for you to stand up?

  Unfortunately, Zhu Ganglie not only failed to stand up for himself but also intentionally took a step back, clearly intimidated by Manager Zhang's aura and powerful physique.

  It was Qin Lang, who had been quietly observing from the side, whose expression changed upon hearing this. He stared at Manager Zhang and suddenly said in a light tone, "Whether or not to apologize doesn't need a lady to get involved, does it? Or is it that your operations manager can't even hold his pants up and only knows how to communicate with women?"

  A burst of laughter came from all around.

  Cao Yan looked at Qin Lang with a surprised face, discovering for the first time that this fool was just like his father, and quite bold. In comparison, she couldn't help but look down on Zhu Ganglie beside her, immediately pulling away from him, keeping some distance from this man.

  Manager Zhang initially thought Hao Wei was the leader of the four troublemakers, but now that Qin Lang has spoken up, he suddenly realized that this guy is actually the real mastermind.

  Manager Zhang narrowed his eyes, his powerful physique exuding an intimidating aura, his eyes gleaming with a fierce light as he glared at Qin Lang with malice.

  Also don't know what this manager Zhang used to do, his whole body exudes a fierce aura, the onlookers around him, those who met his gaze, couldn't help but feel intimidated.

  But Qin Lang seemed to be completely unaware of it, facing the opponent's gaze, his eyes shot out a fierce and murderous aura that was ten or even a hundred times stronger than the opponent's.

  In just a few seconds, the majestic Zhang manager was defeated, his heart racing wildly, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, and he weakly avoided eye contact, not daring to look Qin Lang in the eye again.

  Hao Wei let out a sigh of relief in his heart. Just now, he was also overwhelmed by Manager Zhang's momentum. Now that he saw Manager Zhang being no match for Qin Lang, he had even more confidence in the identity of this nobleman and felt that he had truly encountered a great opportunity this time.

  Qin Lang saw that Manager Zhang had been defeated, but his face didn't show any sign of complacency. In his opinion, suppressing the opponent's momentum was not worth mentioning at all. He hummed lightly and said: "You blamed us with just one sentence, is your butt sitting too crooked?"

  Director Zhang suppressed his heartbeat and looked at Qin Lang again, his eyes becoming strange, obviously unable to think that the ordinary-looking young man in front of him could have such a strong aura.

  Because he couldn't quite grasp Qin Lang's identity, his tone didn't dare to be as overbearing again, and he said: "It's not that I'm biased towards my own people, but you don't have any evidence. Nowadays it's a society ruled by law, and everything must be based on evidence."

  "Who says we don't have evidence?" Hao Wei suddenly interjected, then unzipped his jacket pocket and pulled out a camera.

  This is a small high-definition camera that the TV station purchased for undercover investigations. The video quality is clear, and the audio is realistic. After Hao Wei pressed a few buttons, the screen of the camera showed the scene where Cao Yao Shi was speaking loudly earlier. The clear voice came through the speaker and reached everyone's ears in the room.
