1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 45 Come forward
The stalls here are very lively.

In the corner on the other side of the supply and marketing cooperative, Jose's tailor stall seemed a little deserted.

Although there were customers there, they were all there to pick up their clothes.

There was someone who wanted to make clothes just now, but when he saw that there were a lot of people gathered there, he ran over to watch the fun.

Jose was so angry that he gritted his teeth, made up his mind, put down the scissors in his hand and walked into the supply and marketing cooperative from the side.

At the Meng family's side, more than a dozen pairs of pants were sold in just half an hour, and people kept coming to see them. The speed of shipment was getting faster and faster, and some sizes were only a few pairs left.

Meng Shulan roughly counted the inventory and reported it to everyone in a hoarse voice.

He was a little hesitant at first, but when he heard that the money was almost gone, he gritted his teeth and took out his wallet.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted from outside, "Who told you to engage in business activities here? You still have the guts to run outside the supply and marketing cooperative? Believe it or not, I will have you arrested!"

These words were so shocking that they immediately brought everyone's thoughts back to the past.

The originally noisy crowd quieted down.

When everyone looked back, they saw a man with an armband on his arm, who looked like a cadre in his forties, standing not far away with his hands behind his back. He looked like he was from the supply and marketing cooperative or the town office.

The villagers, who had never left the town in their lives, instinctively felt awe towards these people. When he shouted like this, the crowd naturally put down their things and dispersed.

Those who had already bought pants shrank their necks and prepared to leave, while those who had not bought any looked at the Meng family mother and daughter with worried eyes, afraid that they would get into trouble.

To be honest, it’s such a great thing that you can buy things without a ticket. Why not let people enjoy it?
Of course, they only thought about it in their hearts and definitely didn't dare to speak up.

At the stall, He Jinqiu and Meng Changli were also shocked by the roar.

Some things have not been officially finalized, so they are still a little scared.

But after all, it was in town, a place she was familiar with. Meng Changli thought of her sister and mother who were nearby, and she would have to come to the rescue if something happened, so she stepped forward to explain, "We don't have a storefront here, we're not blocking the road, and we're not causing any inconvenience to anyone, so why can't we sell it?"

Seeing that his young wife was still angry, the man's expression became more serious and ferocious.

He glared at me, "Is that what I'm talking about? No matter where you're setting up, first of all, this kind of profiteering is wrong. What's your name, and which village are you from?"

Generally speaking, no matter whether the stall owner is bold or timid, he has to pack up his things and leave.

This person clearly wants them to get out!
Meng Shulan received the change from the last customer and was about to ask who was jealous of their good business when she heard a noisy voice coming from the crowd.

"What about you? Who are you? What unit are you from? You're actually in charge of the trading market. Do you have the authority to do that?"

The voice was nonchalant, but the words it said were well-reasoned and rigorous.

When everyone looked sideways, they saw a man in a green military uniform and an octagonal hat, who walked out of the crowd with his head slightly raised.

The man was not tall, had wheat-colored skin, and was very thin. At first glance, you could tell that he was a young man working in the fields.

But it was this young man from a farming family who had the courage to stand up and challenge the man wearing a red armband.

Moreover, he looked very confident, not afraid at all, and even looked at the "leader" in front of him with some disdain.

It’s Shen Chengyuan!
Meng Shulan was stunned and turned to look at the crowd. Soon she saw Gu Hansong's figure diagonally in front of Shen Chengyuan.

Sure enough, he came, wearing a dark blue corduroy jacket, black pants and green army shoes, with his hands in his pockets, strolling leisurely, and seemed no different from the people watching the excitement around him.

But Meng Shulan knew he wasn't there to watch the fun. Looking closely, she could see a silent chill hidden in his phoenix eyes, partially obscured by his hair. Twenty-year-old Gu Hansong hadn't been polished enough by time, lacking the composure and restraint of later generations. Outsiders couldn't detect it, but Meng Shulan knew him well enough to see it.

The corners of Meng Shulan's mouth slowly curled up.

Although it was Shen Chengyuan who stood up, she understood that it was all arranged by Gu Hansong and he was standing up for his family.

Someone came out to challenge, and the crowd dispersed a little.

Shen Chengyuan walked forward, keeping three steps away from the cadre-looking man, and snorted coldly.

It would be fine if he was just bold, but he also looked down on others.

The man felt his authority was challenged, and pointed at Shen Chengyuan and said angrily: "Where did you come from, you little brat? How dare you interfere with public affairs? Believe it or not, I will arrest you first."

Wearing an old military uniform, he looked like a village boy who had never seen the world.

A guy like this wants to control me. I’m so tired of living!
Seeing the situation turn out like this, Meng Changli wanted to persuade Shen Chengyuan to leave so as not to involve him, but was stopped by Meng Shulan.

"Don't worry, sis. Let him handle it."

It's just a small matter, and with the big boss Gu Hansong around, what does she have to worry about?

Seeing her sister's trusting look, Meng Changli temporarily suppressed her worries.

In the middle of the crowd, Shen Chengyuan scratched his ears, looking completely unconcerned, and continued to ask the man, "Answer my question just now. Who are you and what unit do you work for?"

It was obvious that the man didn't want to answer, and continued with his bluff, "You're really trying to disrupt my work, aren't you? Young man, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. It's still not too late if you apologize and leave now. If you continue to disrupt law enforcement, be careful, I'll find your school and make a note of it in your file, making it difficult for you to even take the college entrance exam."

The man was quite courageous and thought he was probably a high school student in town.

Otherwise, ordinary villagers would have been scared to death by what he said.

Since I'm a student, I have a fatal weakness.

As long as I take out my file and use the trump card of college entrance examination, I will definitely be able to intimidate him.

The man puffed out his chest and felt proud again.

After hearing what the man said, the people around him also felt that Shen Chengyuan should be a student. After all, he had the courage to stand up and challenge, and his words were very well-spoken. No one would dare to do these things without some knowledge.

But now, everyone is about to find a school, and everyone can't help but start to worry.

What a good guy, don't let these things ruin your future.

Some brave people in the crowd were ready to come out and persuade them, otherwise if they continued like this, it seemed that the young people would suffer.

However, before anyone could make a move, Shen Chengyuan grinned and said, "You think highly of me."

If he could go to high school and take the college entrance examination, his family would probably support him very much.

It’s a pity that Shen Chengyuan is not good at studying.

Shen Chengyuan flicked the non-existent dust off his fingertips, his eyes met Gu Hansong in front of him for a moment, and then he said to the man with disdain and arrogance, "Stop pretending. I think you are just an assistant manager in the supply and marketing cooperative who manages the environment and keeps the stalls clean. You are not even a leader, so what qualifications do you have to meddle in other people's business outside?

Since this is your first mistake, leave now. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

　It’s the annual traditional festival, my dear children, have a happy Dragon Boat Festival!
