The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

C74 – The Penalty Was too High

“He’s actually been here!”

Zhao Yunlai was taken aback.

“Manager Zhao, what’s happening?”

Zhou Hai inquired from the sidelines.

“Mr. Su claims he visited our shop.”

Zhao Yunlai blinked in disbelief.

“That’s absolutely impossible!”

Zhou Hai vigorously shook his head. “I’ve been stationed at the entrance since I got the call, and I didn’t see Mr. Su enter.”

“Mr. Su also alleges that he was thrown out after arriving. Is that accurate? Did you eject anyone today?”

Zhao Yunlai furrowed his brow, questioning Zhou Hai with wide-eyed curiosity.

“No!”

Zhou Hai wore a look of innocence as he replied, “How could that be? Anyone who comes to our shop is a potential customer. Why would I ever chase them away?”

He spoke instinctively.

Though Zhou Hai remained oblivious, the two security guards had not.

Today, they did indeed expel someone.

However, the individual was dressed casually, appearing quite young, and had entered wearing slippers.

Could that really have been Mr. Su?

The two guards exchanged nervous glances and swallowed hard.

One of the security personnel gently patted Zhou Hai on the shoulder.

“Manager Zhou, today…”

“What are you trying to say?”

Zhou Hai grew slightly impatient.

How could they be so clueless? The situation was already dire!

Suddenly, Zhou Hai had a realization!

Today, he had genuinely thrown someone out!

But how could this be?

Seeing Zhou Hai’s expression, Zhao Yunlai became furious.

“Tell me the truth. Whom did you expel today? Was it him?”

As Zhao Yunlai spoke, he retrieved a document from beside him and turned to the final page, displaying Su Ming’s identification.

Zhou Hai blinked his dry eyes and couldn’t help but swallow hard. He took the document with trembling hands.

When Zhou Hai saw the photograph, he was instantly stupefied!

It was indeed him!

The young man in slippers was, in fact, the enigmatic purchaser of over 400 luxury vehicles?

A chill coursed down Zhou Hai’s spine. He was in deep trouble this time!

How could this be? How could this person be Mr. Zhou?

He distinctly remembered Su Ming mentioning that he intended to purchase a car when he arrived.

However, Zhou Hai had dismissed him entirely and shown him the door.

Zhou Hai had been quite irate because Su Ming’s actions had delayed one of his business transactions.

When he received the phone call, he had felt fortunate, as he had just landed an even more substantial deal.

He believed in his own intelligence.

However, today he committed a grave mistake.

As soon as Zhao Yunlai caught sight of Zhou Hai’s expression, he instantly grasped the situation.

Without uttering a word, Zhao Yunlai delivered a resounding slap to Zhou Hai’s face.

“You truly deserve this!”

Zhao Yunlai berated him, “Do you comprehend the terms of the contract? If we refuse to deliver the car to the customer, we’ll be liable for a tenfold penalty. The total cost of over four hundred luxury cars already exceeds five hundred million, and a tenfold penalty amounts to five billion. That’s a sum you can’t afford!”

“What…”

Zhou Hai was left dumbfounded, his legs giving way as he sat on the ground.

He realized he had offended a mysterious and influential figure this time.

Someone capable of purchasing such a large number of luxury cars couldn’t be an ordinary individual.

Even disregarding his refusal to let Su Ming take the car, his behavior towards Su Ming earlier alone could cost him his life.

While Zhao Yunlai burned with anger and wished he could tear Zhou Hai apart, he understood that the most pressing matter was appeasing Su Ming’s fury.

Otherwise, the substantial compensation would lead to his company’s complete shutdown, burdening him with immense debt.

All the effort he had put into building the company over the years would go to waste.

Although he had some support, the person backing him wouldn’t risk antagonizing a figure like Su Ming to protect him.

If headquarters found out about this, his fate wouldn’t be any better than Zhou Hai’s.

“Get out!”

Zhao Yunlai delivered a forceful kick to Zhou Hai. “You wretched scoundrel, return and await your punishment! Everyone else, no one leaves work today. Stay here and keep watch!”

After these words, Zhao Yunlai hurriedly retreated to his office.

The remaining salespeople and security personnel stood in shock.

Su Ming, who had appeared as a common laborer, turned out to be a mysterious tycoon!

He had purchased over 400 luxury cars in one go!

Zhao Yunlai paced back and forth in his office. Finally, he tremulously retrieved his phone and dialed Su Ming’s number.

At that moment, Su Ming was engaged in conversation with Ye Ling.

His phone rang once more, displaying the same number as before.

“You seem quite busy,” Ye Ling remarked, playfully.

“Not at all,” Su Ming replied.

Su Ming smiled faintly as he answered the call. “I made it clear that I no longer wish to have those cars. When will you address the compensation?”

“Mr. Su, please don’t be upset. This is all a misunderstanding!”

Zhao Yunlai couldn’t help but nod and bow, sweat beads forming on his forehead as he held the phone. “It’s all Zhou Hai’s fault. Please don’t stoop to his level. I’ve already reprimanded him. Mr. Su, please don’t let such a minor issue trouble you.”

“How about this? You can keep those cars. I’ll offer a 20% discount and provide a comprehensive package of insurance and maintenance services. In fact, we’ll strive to fulfill any of your requests.”

Zhao Yunlai’s voice quivered.

He was filled with dread because this was the result of his employees’ mistakes.

If Su Ming truly canceled the deal and demanded compensation for the penalty, Zhao Yunlai would have no option but to face the dire consequences.

After all, the penalty amounted to over five billion yuan!

He didn’t possess that much money at the moment unless he sold the dealership.

Yet, if he sold the dealership, headquarters would undoubtedly exact retribution upon him.
