The employees from Fortune Restaurant, though not beaten, were still injured when they were thrown out of the restaurant and landed upon the ground. They were not people who practiced martial arts, so they started to limp, after the fall. They were not very convinced, as they returned to where they came.
Changgui, who was leading the team, said nothing, nor did his followers, but everyone felt very anxious – the Imperial Master trusted them to deal with this incident, and they were confident too, when they walked out of Fortune Restaurant, since they were sure that no one dared to counter Fortune Restaurant with the Imperial Master behind it.
However, now the Luo’s showed no fear towards the Imperial Master or the King, and those who worked there even tossed them out.
They had not expected that a minor restaurant like the Luo’s had guards with such strength.
They exchanged looks between themselves and then turned to Changyi and Changgui, who had no expression on their faces, continuing to remain silent.
Fortune Restaurant was located not far from them, but they felt that the road there was long and dragging.
When they returned to Fortune Restaurant, the Imperial Master noticed the messy look on their faces, and that they all were extremely distressed and scared as they looked at him.
It wasn’t a difficult task, he believed.
Warning the Luo’s should not be a big matter. He was behind Fortune Restaurant after all, and all the income of Fortune Restaurant was handed to the national storage. So since the King stood behind Fortune Restaurant, they should have no difficulty in dealing with a minor restaurant. So what was that saddened look on their faces?
The Imperial Master could not stand it any more. Instead, he showed a look of fury and spoke louder than ever. “What is going on? What on earth is going on?”
The employees exchanged a look among themselves, not daring to say a thing. Instead, they turned to Changgui.
Changgui was the leader, and he was the one that deployed the tasks and received better payment. So Changgui should be the one that took the responsibility when something happened. They should not be the ones that give explanations, anyway, right? So none of the employees spoke, and turned to Changgui instead.
Changgui did not push away the responsibility either.
He thought for a while and said, “Imperial Master, the manager of the Luo’s knew that you are behind Fortune Restaurant, and that the income is all going to the national storage, so they know that the King will definitely ask about it if something happens. However, the manager said that he is just a businessman and has nothing to fear, so they are not moving away. What is more… They showed no fear, and got the guards to throw us out of the Luo’s. There were so many of them, and all of them were good at martial arts, so we could not do anything about it.”
“…”
“Also, they even copied our branded dish and made a simple version of hot-pot and charge the guests at a price of ordinary dishes.”
“…”
“It won’t work if we just try to talk sense into them. They are so intimidating.”
The Imperial Master was at the edge of getting furious, but when he heard what Changgui said, he could not help falling into contemplation.
That was interesting! They showed no fear, knowing what Fortune Restaurant was built on.
Then… it seemed that the manager of the Luo’s should not be someone with an ordinary background.
