Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 892: Chapter 892: You Are Confused

“You’re confused!” The middle-aged man suddenly stood up, pointing his finger and glaring at him as he said, “Do you have any idea what you’re doing? Do you know who she is? You actually dissolved the contract with her, and moreover, under the circumstances that we breached it.”

Shopkeeper Qiu was startled, not understanding why the boss suddenly blew up in such anger.

The boss usually didn’t pay much attention to these minor business dealings in the shop; it was generally up to him to make decisions. In the past, this would have been a trivial matter, so why would the boss care to intervene now?

The middle-aged man paced in place, unable to vent the frustration swelling in his chest. Spotting a staff member nearby, he lifted his foot and kicked out.

The staff member fell to his knees with a ‘thud,’ “Boss, boss.”

The middle-aged man’s eyes were still fierce, and with an unfriendly expression, he suddenly turned to Shopkeeper Qiu and said, “Hurry to the ready-to-wear clothes shop, find Lu Sanzhu, apologize or pay her off, whatever it takes. Be polite and get the contract for collaboration signed again.”

Shopkeeper Qiu was shocked, his face filled with disbelief, “Boss, what, what has happened?”

“What happened?” The middle-aged man laughed coldly, “Lu Shuyu has become the Village Chief. She’s someone who has recently returned home in honor after earning great merit. The announcement is even posted on the notice board at the city gate; if you’re still unclear, go see for yourself, go and see!!”

Shopkeeper Qiu’s mouth dropped open in shock, murmuring unconsciously, “Village Chief…”

How could this happen?

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, “Shopkeeper Qiu, you started this mess. If you don’t solve it properly, then you no longer need to be the shopkeeper.”

After speaking, he briskly turned and left the cloth shop with his entourage.

The joy and fortune he felt upon arrival were now replaced with equal parts rage and frustration.

He wasn’t exactly afraid of the newly appointed Monarch Lu Xiang; his family owned more than just this cloth shop. Being able to make this store the largest in Jiangyuan County meant he had his own solid connections and influence.

But the problem was that a good partnership had been ruined by Shopkeeper Qiu’s offense, and had even turned sour—who knew what future troubles this might bring?

“This Shopkeeper Qiu is becoming more and more muddled with age. If this situation can’t be salvaged, he doesn’t need to stay here anymore.”

Shopkeeper Qiu stood still for a while before the staff member picked himself up from the ground and asked in a low voice, “Shopkeeper, is everything the boss said true?”

How would Shopkeeper Qiu know?

Without another word, he tightened his face and dashed out of the shop, heading straight for the city gate.

After squeezing through the crowd to read the notice, the last bit of hope he had vanished.

It was indeed… her.

Remembering the final words left by the boss before he departed, Shopkeeper Qiu’s face turned pale, and he hurriedly ran towards Ningshui Street.

Nevertheless, he was still a step too late. He was not the only one who recognized Shu Yu’s identity from the notice; the citizens of the city who heard the news had already flocked to Yiren Pavilion.

They did not know Shu Yu’s current residence, but they were well aware of her family’s shop.

Early in the morning, Daniu had just opened the shop when a big crowd of customers poured in.

In just half an hour, all the clothes in the shop, even the stock, had been swept clean, sold out.

When Shopkeeper Qiu arrived, the shop was packed inside and out; he could not even squeeze in.

By the time he finally made it to the front, Daniu had already closed the main door of the shop.

Shopkeeper Qiu stood stupefied at the door, muttering to himself, “It’s over.”
