The lady boss was the first to react. She immediately smiled and said, âSir, Iâm really sorry. My husband was just joking. Heâs just a person who doesnât keep his mouth shut.â
Xia Qiu, who was standing beside them, said with a cold face, âThat period of history brought a huge disaster to us Chinese people. Itâs fine if you donât know how to reflect on yourself, but how can you joke about such a thing? Do you still have any humanity?â
The lady boss stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
The bossâs face had already darkened. âl was just saying it casually. If you insist on taking it seriously, then I canât do anything about it.â
Xia Qiu was so angry that she laughed. âWhat do you mean casually? This kind of inhumane thing actually made you say it in such a dignified manner. You donât even have the bottom line as a human.â
The boss stood up with a whoosh and glared at her. âBaka, who did you say had no bottom line? Say it again if you have the guts!â
Seeing the quarrel, many people who were shopping in the market crowded around to find out what had happened.
After figuring out the reason for the conflict, everyone pointed their guns at Ye Feng and Xia Qiu.
âYou two Chinese people are really too fragile, arenât you? He was just joking.
Why are you taking it so seriously?â
âThatâs right. Youâre the only ones who insult us Japanese people with your TV series, but you donât allow us to joke around?â
âDonât take everything to heart. Japan is not like China. We have freedom of speech. You canât go on and on just because someone said something wrong, right?â
âWhat do you mean by saying the wrong thing? I donât like hearing this. The boss is right. Chinese women are just not as beautiful as our Japanese womenâ¦â
Xia Qiu was instantly angered by this group of people and was about to argue.At this moment, Ye Feng raised his hand to stop her. âStop talking, letâs buy seafood.â
Xia Qiu looked at him in disbelief. âWhy didnât you speak up for China at a time like this? Why did you buy seafood?â
Ye Feng shook his head and smiled. âA few words from me can turn a beast into a human? And then expect them to repent and repent? Itâs just a waste of saliva.â
After saying that, he squatted down and began to choose the seafood.
Xia Qiu stared at him blankly, her eyes filled with disappointment.
She had always treated him like a hero, but she didnât expect him to say such words when faced with such a major problem.
She felt that the heroic image in her heart was crumbling bit by bit.
Her heart ached as tears rolled down her cheeks.
The stall owner and the surrounding onlookers also had a contemptuous look in their eyes.
Look, all the men in China were so cowardly. They were not even as good as a woman. No wonder they were conquered by a million Japanese back then.
Ye Feng did not care about their expressions. He took out a clam that weighed about six to seven pounds from the water tank.
âBoss, how much is one jin of this clam?â
â1,000 Japanese coins per catty.â The boss immediately quoted a price,
The people who frequented the seafood market all had strange smiles on their faces.
This kind of mussel was usually around 100 Japanese coins per catty. The boss was obviously making things difficult for him.
But Ye Feng did not seem to notice it. He passed the mussel over. âThat is quite cheap. I want this mussel, help me weigh it.â
âHahahaâ¦
Hearing his words, everyone present could not help but laugh.
The other party had charged him ten times the price, and he actually said that it was quite cheap? Wasnât he a fool?
It turned out that this Chinese man was not only cowardly, but also stupid.
When everyone looked at Ye Feng, their gazes were filled with mockery.
The owner put the clam on the scale and weighed it. âSix catties and five taels.
Iâll give you six catties. Just give me 6,000 Japanese dollars.â
Ye Feng took out some money from his pocket and did not forget to say:
âThank you.â
âHahahaâ¦
Everyone laughed even louder. He had charged him so much money, and he was still thanking them. This kind of person was sold and still paid for it.
The boss put the mussel into a bag and handed it over. He was about to take the money with his other hand.
But Ye Feng suddenly retracted his hand and asked. âIf there are pearls in this clam, who will take it?â
When the owner heard this, he looked at him as if he was looking at a fool. âThis is just an ordinary mussel, not a pearl mussel. How can there be pearls in it?â
But Ye Feng looked at him stubbornly. âIâm saying if, if we find a pearl inside, who will it belong to?â
The boss smiled and shook his head. âYou pay me, Iâll give you the goods. This clam is yours. No matter what you find inside, itâs yours. 1 promise I wonât fight with you. Donât worry.â
Only then did Ye Feng relax. He passed the money to him and took the mussel from him. âCan I borrow your tools? 1 want to pry it open now. What if there are pearls inside?â
The boss did not hide his mocking smile. âYoung man, I think youâre thinking too much. If there are pearls in this clam, Iâll eat it with the shell and meat.â
Although he said that, he still handed over a pair of pliers.
Ye Feng took the pliers and started to fiddle with them.
The people who were watching the show were chatting and laughing.
âThis Chinese guy is really interesting. He actually wants to get pearls from here? Iâm dying of laughter.â
âIâve never seen such a stupid person. This is just an ordinary clam. How can there be pearls in it?â
âl think heâs crazy about getting rich, right? Heâs simply a lunatic.â
âThe brain circuits of the Chinese are really strange, hahahaâ¦â
Just as everyone was mocking him with harsh words, Ye Feng had already pried open half of the clam. He suddenly stopped and turned to look at them.
âl have a feeling that there is a pearl inside, and it is a priceless pearl. Who wants it now? Iâll sell it to you for 10,000 Japanese coins.â
Hearing his words, everyone laughed even louder.
âHahaha, does this Chinese person think weâre fools? Who would believe his nonsense?â
âHehe, you can only fool the Chinese with this kind of nonsense. We Japanese are not as stupid as you.â
âYou didnât even look at it. How do you know there are pearls inside? Youâre not professional at lying.â
â10,000 Japanese dollars? I donât even want a hundred yuan!â
Everyone felt that their intelligence had been insulted. They immediately mocked Ye Feng.
Xia Qiu, who was watching from the side, felt even more upset.
She did not know what was wrong with Ye Feng. Why would he do such a ridiculous thing?
Where was the wise, brave, and calm man of the past?
Ye Feng saw that everyone rejected him, he could only shake his head helplessly. âSince no one wants to buy it, then forget it, Iâll keep it for myself.â As he spoke, he completely pried open the clam.
Everyone looked over with a mocking smile. Then, everyoneâs smile froze on their faces.
There was actually a pearl inside the clam..
