After some arguing, although Scott said the goods were valuable, he still unpacked and inspected them one by one.
As expected, there was a small, monstrous golden toad among the goods!
Fortunately, Xing and Su Chang were quick and nimble, and they took care of the monsters in no time. Otherwise, who knows how many fragile goods would have been damaged.
After the battle, Su Chang confronted Scott.
You tampered with this machine; it's what damaged the other cargo on the ship.
Scott: [Huh? Speak louder, I can't hear you.]
They initially thought Scott was going to deny it, but it turned out that the golden toad in the thick clouds was not Scott's cargo at all.
Su Chang: [What?!]
After asking the dockworkers who were stacking the goods, it was confirmed that they were indeed not Scott's goods.
Su Chang: [Then why is this toad placed here?]
Scott: [That's your problem, it's not my business, right?]
Scott: [I'd like to ask, my vase was perfectly well-packaged, and it almost got smashed, what's going on here?]
Xing: [Inspection complete, ready to ship.]
Scott: [Huh? Did I hear that right?]
Scott: [After all this stunt, you really need to apologize.]
Su Chang: [This...this requires an apology?]
Scott: [Huh? If we don't apologize, it won't sound good.]
Although she was very reluctant, Su Chang still forced herself to say these words.
I'm sorry...
Chapter 136 The Lone Wolf's Roar
Hearing Su Chang bow her head and apologize in the end in the drama, Gui Naifen and the viewers in the live broadcast room were itching to watch.
Scott, however, did not seem to want to make things difficult for them and spoke generously.
[Whatever, just consider it practice. One apology isn't enough, hahaha.]
These words not only ignited the audience but also inspired Su Chang at the scene.
All that could be heard was Su Chang gritting her teeth and letting out a strange scream, as if she had encountered something unclean and felt disgusted.
[Mmm...]
Xing: [Mmm...]
The girl's lively and cheerful screams immediately drew the audience's attention.
"Holy crap, what's that noise?!"
"Whose kettle is boiling water?!"
"With my eyes closed, I thought someone was making a scene, but when I opened them, it was Su Chang!"
"There's a kind of beauty that you can't quite express!"
"That feeling of being all puffed up but unable to swear is so cute on Su Chang!!"
"Haha, the big pillow is so cute!"
"I can't take it anymore! Someone, someone record this part! I want to listen to an hour-long pure version!"
"You know how to enjoy life!"
"Damn it, why isn't Xing's voice in this part?!"
After venting her emotions, Su Chang said with a wronged expression.
My mother told me that once I mastered a skill, others would be able to reason with me... It seems I'm not skilled enough yet.
Mingxi: [Before the repayment date arrives, I need to teach you two how to argue, no... how to debate!]
So the group went to the Chamber of Commerce president's side, where the secretary, Lian Yan, had already collected evidence of the dockworkers accepting bribes.
Several recent company remittances prove that the company was indeed behind the dock incident.
All you need to do next is take the evidence, practice confronting the dockworkers, and take their statements.
Thus began a heated debate with Ah Feng, a dockworker who had accepted bribes.
Players need to use the existing clues to find flaws by submitting corresponding clues after the other party speaks.
This format of the event also piqued the interest of the audience.
"Interesting, this is a bit like a debate game I used to play!"
"I have objections!"
"It's right!"
After refuting Afeng's claims based on evidence, he also confessed to accepting bribes.
[What's wrong with handing over the management of Jinren Alley to a company? You old-fashioned folks, don't stop everyone from making money!]
With the truth coming to light and Ah Feng's testimony in hand, it's finally time to address the rental dispute between the dock and the company.
As a notary, Xi Kui from Tianbo Company met with the other party at the negotiating table.
Scott reappeared, looking impatient.
Does this even need coordination? Let me just say it—the Chamber of Commerce should have been kicked out of Jinren Lane long ago.
Seeing that Scott was the representative at the negotiating table again, Su Chang said with dissatisfaction.
Couldn't the company send a normal person to negotiate?
Scott: [Huh? Speak louder, I can't hear you.]
Clearly, Scott had mastered the Yin-Yang technique to a high level, which caused Su Chang's anger to surge. She took a deep breath and said, word by word!
I said, "Is there no one else in the company?"
Su Chang's powerful high notes caught all the audience off guard.
"Ouch, I feel like my eardrums are going to perforate!"
"Headphone users are dead!"
"That brat has boundless energy!"
This scene made Gui Naifen cover her mouth and chuckle.
"Haha, Changchang is so energetic!"
Scott, standing right in front of him, was clearly taken aback by the shout.
[Phew, I hope when you apologize to me in public later, you'll do it just as loudly as you did earlier!]
As the company's business representative, my attendance at this negotiation is legal, reasonable, and justified! Who does Jinren Lane plan to send?
[Could it be this girl you pulled in at the last minute, the one who looks like someone owes her fifty credits?]
Viewers smiled knowingly upon seeing Scott's assessment of the protagonist.
"Haha, I didn't expect Xing's usual expression to be just as arrogant as in the game!"
"Hey, is it illegal to be arrogant?"
"Exactly! Is there a rule that says people can't pull?"
"I want the Cool Girl Star!"
Thus began the heated debate with Scott!
The company specifically leased its operating rights to the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce in order to seek common development.
Scott began to talk about the inefficiency and low transaction volume of the Golden Man Lane wharf, which were evidence of the wharf's previous mismanagement.
Furthermore, given the Chamber of Commerce's inability to pay rent, Scott believed the Chamber should relinquish its dock operating rights and pay additional compensation.
It's clear that Scott's information is still from the previous version.
Thanks to Xing's intervention and improvements, the dock has become more efficient and has turned a profit, enabling it to pay off its debts.
【W-What?! You actually fought back?! How dare you?!】
Next, the Chamber of Commerce alleged that Scott bribed dockworkers to sabotage dock operations.
Scott, of course, disagreed.
So Gui Naifen presented the dockworkers' testimonies one by one in the dialogue, and after trying them all, it finally worked.
【W-What?! That old fogey... Don't the people of Xianzhou always preach about loyalty? I gave him so much money, and he sold me out in the blink of an eye! How despicable—】
Ultimately, the heated debate was a success!
Scott stood there, stunned, wondering which step had gone wrong that led to this situation.
Su Chang: [Hey, don't forget our bet! You have to apologize to me in front of everyone!]
Scott: [No! Why should I apologize to you!]
Su Chang: [Just because you trampled on the efforts of others, just because you used dirty tricks!]
If my apology can dispel the disheartening feelings of those who love Golden Man Alley, I will apologize a hundred times, a thousand times!
But now, you're the one who should apologize!
His righteous and eloquent words drew spontaneous applause from the audience.
Just when everyone thought Scott was going to renege on his debt, they saw him lower his head.
Scott: [I...I'm sorry, Golden Man Alley...]
Xing: [And what about what you said back then?]
The eyes of many villagers present began to focus on Scott, and even the viewers in the live broadcast room began to stare intently at this scene.
That scene is coming!
Scott: [I...I want to apologize to the people of Golden Man Lane—]
I'm a blind fool! I'm arrogant and ignorant, all I do is bark and howl!
Upon hearing this, Xing and Su Chang exchanged a glance, then looked at Scott again, giving him a subtle hint.
Seeing that the crowd was still staring at him, Scott broke down and roared.
Ah—that's enough!
A distraught Scott was panting heavily, as if he had made up his mind!
Woof! Woof woof woof woof woof! Woof—
[Woof woof—]
Chapter 137 The Restoration of Golden Man Alley
In the story, the onlookers were truly amazed to see Scott actually barking like a dog in front of the people of Golden Man Lane!
Even the viewers in the live stream were having a blast.
The tone was one of exasperation, culminating in hysteria.
It felt like he was venting his frustration by barking like a dog, which really gave the audience a sense of relief!
"Hahaha, I can't take it anymore! Oh my god, I can't believe he's actually barking like a dog!"
"Awesome! That's so satisfying! Let him be so arrogant in front of us!"
"That's incredible! He can even imitate a dog's bark perfectly!"
"I was so angry at him in the beginning, but now that I've finished watching it, I actually admire him a bit!"
"Indeed, at least they kept their word!"
"Scott is so cute, I want to have one!"
