Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 32 Surrounded
The matter of borrowing money was just a small episode, and Jiang Cheng's attention returned to the roasted sweet potatoes in front of him.

Sure enough, until the evening, no one else came to ask for money.

As the last roasted sweet potato was sold, Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and tried not to show the joy in his heart too obviously on his face.

With two stoves, we sold more than 150 roasted sweet potatoes in total.

The total income is a little over nine hundred.

In other words, today's net profit is about four hundred and fifty, not as much as six hundred as imagined.

But Jiang Cheng was also very satisfied.

If there is only one furnace, today's profit will be about the same as yesterday, just over three hundred.

Today we have one more stove, which means we have half more.

That's it.

Jiang Cheng immediately began to pack up and said hello to Lu Zicheng before leaving.

The latter looked at Jiang Cheng's departing back, his eyes full of envy.

However, he has also benefited from Jiang Cheng's help these days, and his income is about 20% to 30% more than usual.

"It would be great if my business could be as good as his one day." Lu Zicheng sighed, looked at the sky, and hurriedly prepared to leave.

"Xiao Lu, wait a moment."

Just then a voice sounded behind him.

Lu Zicheng turned around in confusion, only to see Xu Hai catching up with him with a smile on his face.

There were two or three people following behind him.

"Uncle Xu, if you have something to say, why not wait until tomorrow? It's getting late." Lu Zicheng said hurriedly.

"Don't worry, Xiao Lu, it won't take you more than a few minutes."

As Xu Hai spoke, he put his hand on Lu Zicheng's car, seemingly nonchalantly.

"Xiao Lu, you are close to that guy in Jiang Cheng, do you know what tricks he uses to make his business so good recently?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the few people who followed him also stared at Lu Zicheng closely, concentrating their attention.

Hearing this, Lu Zicheng smiled.

"Uncle Xu, do you think I would tell you if I knew the trick? Wouldn't it be better if I changed my career to selling roasted sweet potatoes?"

Xu Hai and his companions were immediately stumped by the question.

Yeah, that seems to be the case.

However, they felt very sad when they saw Jiang Cheng making a lot of money every day.

"Okay, Uncle Xu, it's getting late. I really should go. If you really want to know, you can go ask Jiang Cheng tomorrow."

Lu Zicheng smiled, took Xu Hai's hand away, and pushed the cart away.

I thought to myself, there is something wrong.

Instead of asking Jiang Cheng, I asked myself.

However, only a fool would talk about this kind of hidden skill.

……

After buying sweet potatoes, Jiang Cheng felt something was wrong on his way back.

At the corner, two people were looking towards him. When they noticed him looking over there, they quickly looked away, as if nothing had happened. However, the corner of their eyes never left him.

He frowned.

Just two days ago, when these people saw me, they were like mice seeing a cat, and they didn't even have time to run away. How could they possibly hide in the dark and watch like they are now?
Could it be that he is planning to attack me?

Jiang Cheng felt that this was the only explanation that made sense.

My business has been booming these two days, and today I opened an extra furnace. It's natural that it has attracted the covetousness of these people.

However, he did not take these two people seriously. He had mastered the use of his short stick to a proficient level. If these two people dared to come and cause trouble, he would definitely use ruthless force.

Jiang Cheng snorted coldly and continued walking forward.

When he passed by the entrance of the alley, he took a special look at them. The two men quickly turned around, as if they hadn't seen him.

After Jiang Cheng walked over, the two looked at each other and sneered on their faces.

"Let's go! Join up with the people ahead."

The two of them quickly followed.

As he walked, Jiang Cheng felt more and more that something was wrong.

At first, it could be said that it was a coincidence that I encountered two people staring at me.

But later on, we encountered two more waves of people, some with one, some with two.

"Something's wrong."

Jiang Cheng realized something, looked at the road ahead, and decided to take a detour.

But at this moment, footsteps were heard, and more than a dozen people surrounded him from all directions, blocking all his ways.

These people seemed to be well prepared, holding short sticks in their hands, with malicious eyes and deep fear.

Jiang Cheng's face changed suddenly.

The people in front of me all look like strangers.

They should all be hooligans from the neighborhood.

The good news is that he didn't see anyone among them who had any connection with the Wild Wolf Gang.

The bad news is that there are too many enemies, thirteen in total!

Jiang Cheng forced himself to calm down, took out the short stick hidden behind his back with his right hand, looked around, and said, "What do you want to do?"

"hehe,"

A 1.80-meter-tall man with side bangs in front of him laughed dryly and said, "Don't be nervous, my friend. We are out of money. We came to you today to borrow some money from you."

Jiang Cheng's eyes immediately fell on him.

It seems that this guy with side bangs should be the leader of this group of people. No, it should be said that he is the leader of the organization that is intercepting him this time.

Although there are many thugs around, it can be seen at a glance that these people are small groups, and so many people are put together temporarily.

Moreover, from the perspective of the gang, they would not allow a small group of a dozen people to exist in the territory under their jurisdiction.

"It would be great if I could master the double sticks at this time."

Jiang Cheng didn't feel good.

He only had a short stick in his hand, and it was very stressful for him to deal with more than a dozen people.

If it is a double stick, the probability of winning is much greater.

But no matter what, it is impossible to ask him to hand over the money just like that, and there is a possibility that he may win today.

As his mind raced, Jiang Cheng came up with a plan.

He stared into the man's eyes, sneered, and said, "You want money from me? Don't you know what happened to the people who tried to rob me the last two times?"

As soon as the words fell, there was a rustling noise all around.

Of course they know.

Li Wei and the other man who were beaten didn’t even recognize their mothers.

This time they went over and tried to persuade them, but the two men refused to agree no matter what.

As for the second wave of people, they were even more miserable. Zheng Jie had several ribs broken, and without medical expenses, he died in pain.

Thinking of this, several thugs took a step back.

"Don't be afraid!"

Seeing this, Xi Liuhai shouted, "This kid has some skills, but there are so many of us here today, should we be afraid of him alone?"

"Yes, I admit that if so many of you come at me together, I may not be your opponent."

Jiang Cheng glanced around with a fierce look in his eyes, "But have you ever thought about what will happen to the person who rushes to the front? I am not afraid to tell you, if a fight breaks out later, I will definitely not hold back and hit you in the vital parts. I am not kidding."
