Chapter 1006: Who called the Yamen?
The woman's words were spot on as Peng Jing stepped in front of her vegetables as if she were a hen guarding her chicks and then stated firmly, "It's fine if you want to hand them the pieces of sliced tomatoes but you need to buy my vegetables first! I already suffered a huge loss because of you and I am not willing to lose out anymore. If you want to hand the villagers my vegetables sure go ahead but give me the money first. I don't want much just fifty taels will do!"
" Fifty taels? Oh my god, has she gone crazy? How can she even ask for a sum like that?" One of the women gasped as she looked at Peng Jing who was asking Yu Dong to pay her fifty taels.
Another woman simply rolled her eyes and then said, " She hasn't gone crazy in fact she is being smart. We all have tasted Yu Dong's farm vegetables and we can see that those tomatoes are not something that can be causally grown just because one wants to grow them. So, Peng Jing most probably knows the truth which is why she is trying to make up for the damages by scamming Yu Dong."
Peng Jing was indeed trying to make up for the damages. She was well aware of what kind of tastes her tomatoes and other vegetables had, they were refreshing and good but they were nowhere as good as Yu Dong. When she saw that the manure caused her vegetables to grow at an exponential rate, she thought that she had figured out Yu Dong's key to success but she never thought that the vegetables despite growing so big couldn't fight with Yu Dong's in terms of taste!
Thus, Peng Jing wanted to earn a decent sum of money before ending the havoc.
Yu Dong smiled at Peng Jing, it was as if she was tickled by what Peng Jing was saying to her. She took a step forward and then opened her eyes as she looked at Peng Jing with a glare that made the latter shiver, and before Peng Jing could say anything Yu Dong reached out her hand and then grabbed the latter's collar before she started to curse at her, " Listen here you little s*it, do you think that you can do anything just because I am being kind to you? I have more than one way to make you step aside from breaking your legs to stepping on your toes so hard that you will have nothing but a mess of blood and flesh left, do you want me to take such drastic steps?"
" N..No," Peng Jing felt like if she really tried to fight with Yu Dong the latter would really break her legs.
" Thats right, if you still want to scam me then I will not stop you but just remember if your vegetables are not worth fifty taels, I will break fifty bones in your body, understand ?" Yu Dong's voice was so cold that Peng Jing felt her body tremble, she did not expect Yu Dong to act like such.
But then again she sort of expecting this but that after she got the money!
" I…"
" Is there something that you want to say?" Yu Dong asked with a raise of her brow but Peng Jing immediately shook her head, she was worried that if she was to say that she wanted the money then Yu Dong was going to break her neck.
" You are a smart woman, Peng Jing," Yu Dong smiled as she let go of Peng Jing's collar and because Peng Jing was not steady on her feet, she ended up tumbling on her feet and then fell on her bottom.
" Start cutting the vegetables," Yu Dong ordered the mammies but the way she said it, it was as if she was asking them to cut someone's flesh.
The mammies did not waste another single minute as they rushed to pick up the tomatoes and cucumbers from the basket that Peng Jing brought with her and then handed the sliced pieces to the villagers who took a bite from them.
As soon as they took a bite of the tomatoes, all the villagers frowned simultaneously. Though the tomatoes grown by Peng Jing were indeed better than theirs when compared to Yu Dong… not so much and yet she wanted to compete with her?
Instantly all the villagers turned to look at Peng Jing with a frown on their faces. It was fine if she wanted to get ruined but why did she have to drag them as well? It was a good thing that they did not listen to her and fought with the Yu family or they would be the ones making the loss here as Peng Jing never signed the contract!
" Peng Jing! You are too much, you said that you have found out how Yu Dong grows vegetables and that your vegetables are just as good as hers! Is this what you call good? Other than being bigger in size they are just like mine!" One of the women spoke to Peng Jing after she was done swallowing the piece of tomato. She wished she had eaten Peng Jing's first such that the taste of Yu Dong's farm's tomato would have lingered on her tongue longer.
" Thats right, you were trying to sway us all! If we were not smart enough then we might have lost our livelihood thanks to you!" Another woman spoke hatefully.
Just now it was a good thing that she fought for the Yu family and not against them or else!
Many other women felt indignant when they thought about how Peng Jing fooled them but they did not say anything because they were almost swayed by Peng Jing.
If they were to say something right now then Peng Jing might end up pointing them out in the crowd! They couldn't risk it!
" Who called the Yamen?" One of the officers who were leading a group of yamen officers asked as she came to a stop in front of the crowd. Seeing Peng Jing on the ground she thought that it was her but then Yu Dong raised her hand and said, "I am the one who sent the little girl to call you officers."
