Chapter 100: Obstruction

"But, we had an agreement." Song Mengyan was startled and couldn't help but take a step back.

She raised her eyes to look into the office, only to see dozens of fierce-looking people sitting inside; they had tattoos on their bodies or scars on their heads, and they were toying with daggers in their hands, their expressions unkind.

"I said our Hu Ge would talk to you; are you unable to understand?" the young hoodlum sneered.

"Let me handle it." Chen Yu smiled and walked to the front: "Which one is Hu Ge?"

"Who are you? Are you qualified to talk to us?" the young hoodlum glanced at Chen Yu.

"I am Chen Yu, Vice President of Tianyun Group, holding fifty percent of the shares. Would you say I'm qualified or not?" Chen Yu said indifferently.

"Hu Ge?" the young hoodlum looked back at a burly man inside the office.

This burly man was one meter ninety tall, thick-set and sturdy; he was holding a large bowl in front of the office desk, sweating profusely as he ate a bowl of noodles.

"Let him in." The burly man was Hu Ge; his real name was Wang Hu, a hoodlum in this area who often hung around Yaoshan and controlled a significant portion of the medicinal herb shipments.

Of course, the contracting Contract of Tianyun Group harmed his interests, so this guy was definitely not happy.

"Go in." The young hoodlum waved his hand.

Chen Yu walked in, and although Song Mengyan was a bit afraid, she followed Chen Yu inside.

"Hu Ge?" Chen Yu sat down opposite Wang Hu and greeted him with a smile.

"You must be Chen Yu, the Vice President of Tianyun Pharmaceutical. You hold fifty percent of the shares, Song Mengyan holds forty-five percent, and the remaining five percent are dry shares for some employees. In fact, you are the big boss." Zhou Hu said while wolfing down his noodles.

"It seems you have already investigated clearly." Chen Yu smiled and said: "Is Hu Ge here to sign the contract with us on behalf of Director Li?"

"That's right, there are some decisions he can't make." Wang Hu pushed the bowl away and put down his chopsticks: "Yaoshan and the area within dozens of kilometers have a suitable climate for growing traditional Chinese medicine, and I am responsible for the import and export of goods at the North City Traditional Chinese Medicine Market."

"You are contracting thirty thousand mu of medicinal fields and monopolizing eighty percent of the medicinal herbs; are you planning to starve us people to death?" Wang Hu sneered.

"Not at all." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "As far as I know, a large portion of people in Fengling hoard medicinal herbs after purchasing them and then sell them at high prices; this in itself is an act of disrupting the market. Our Tianyun Pharmaceutical's demand for medicinal herbs will only grow larger in the future."

"Given the demand for traditional Chinese medicine in Fengling, twenty percent is enough." Chen Yu said: "Besides, Hu Ge's medicinal herb market hasn't made little profit over the years, and the eighty percent of herbs I collect will also have a percentage given to your market as a commission; this isn't considered excessive, is it?"

"This isn't excessive? What kind of person do you take Hu Ge for? In the past, he was the boss of the North City Traditional Chinese Medicine Market." A bald man beside Hu Ge shouted loudly while spraying spit: "If you take eighty percent of the shipment volume in the future, how is he supposed to get by?"

"Buddy, keep it down, I'm not deaf." Chen Yu frowned and pulled out a tissue to wipe the spit off his hand.

"You're not deaf, you're blind." The bald man continued to shout loudly: "Over the years, many people have had designs on Yaoshan, but the grass on their graves is already two meters high now; don't you understand?"

"Hehe, Baldy, we are here to discuss business today." Wang Hu smiled: "It's not impossible for you to sign the contracting Contract and take eighty percent of the volume."

"Hu Ge, do you have any requirements? We can talk about them." Song Mengyan said hurriedly.

"The requirements are very simple: the rent for your contract increases tenfold, and eighty percent of the medicinal herbs purchased by your Tianyun Pharmaceutical must pay me a twenty percent toll fee." Wang Hu said with a chuckle: "How about that?"

"Tenfold? A twenty percent commission?" Song Mengyan's expression changed instantly; Wang Hu had no intention of negotiating at all.

Ten times the rent meant the annual contracting fee was five hundred million, and settling it once every five years meant two point five billion; furthermore, the purchased medicinal herbs would be twenty percent more expensive, a cost Tianyun simply could not afford.

"President Wang is being a bit ruthless here." Chen Yu shook his head and said: "If there is no sincerity to negotiate, then we won't negotiate."

"I never intended to negotiate in the first place." Wang Hu sneered: "Go and ask around what kind of person I, Wang Hu, am. In Fengling, no one has dared to confront me head-on yet."

"If you can't afford this price, then get lost. Do you not want to live anymore, daring to mess with Hu Ge's business?" The bald man's roar rang out again; this time he was shouting almost right against Chen Yu's face, and spit sprayed onto Chen Yu's face.

Chen Yu wiped the spit off his face, and suddenly, he stood up, grabbed the stool in his hand, and smashed it fiercely onto the bald man's round head.

With a crash, the solid wood stool shattered completely, and the bald man let out a muffled groan, swayed violently to one side, and fell to the ground.

But his head didn't bleed; it was just covered in some wood splinters.

"Golden Bell Shield?" Chen Yu looked at this guy in surprise; no wonder this guy was so arrogant, it turned out his head was hard enough.

"Kill him for me..." Wang Hu was furious, and the room instantly descended into chaos as more than a dozen people rushed toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu sneered, backhanded a baton from one of the hoodlums, and swung it fiercely into the crowd.

Hum, with the reinforcement of True Qi, the baton in Chen Yu's hand was like divine assistance; with one swing, several people were sent flying, and in less than a minute, all dozen or so people were knocked to the ground.

"Damn it, so you're an expert." The bald man stood up, brushed the splinters off his head, and cursed: "Let's see if I don't kill you."

"I find you very annoying." Chen Yu stared coldly at the bald man.

"There are plenty of people who find me annoying; who do you think you are?" The bald man was still roaring hoarsely; he planted his feet in a horse stance, let out a violent shout, and the muscles on his body bulged, his solid muscles looking like iron blocks.

This guy practiced hard-body techniques, and the strength of his physical body was indeed very formidable.

Chen Yu stepped forward and slapped the bald man across the face.

Pfft... The bald man spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, half of his teeth were knocked out by Chen Yu, and immediately after, his chest was struck by Chen Yu's fist; with a pfft, True Qi burst out from his body, and the bald man spat out another mouthful of blood as he flew backward.

The ribs on his chest were slightly sunken; his Golden Bell Shield, which claimed to be impervious to blades and guns, was broken by Chen Yu's punch, and now his internal organs were slightly displaced, and he had suffered internal injuries.

"You..." The bald man was both shocked and angry; he couldn't understand why his Golden Bell Shield was broken by Chen Yu's punch.

Chen Yu didn't say a word, stepped forward, raised his palm, and began to beat the bald man indiscriminately.

Without the protection of the Golden Bell Shield, the bald man was beaten by Chen Yu until he screamed repeatedly; in less than five minutes, he was lying on the ground clutching his head and calling for a stop.

"The person who speaks the loudest gets beaten the hardest; have you remembered that clearly?" Chen Yu said coldly.

"You, do you know who my master is?" the bald man said resentfully.

"Who?" Chen Yu slapped him again.

"He, he is Li Zhongyi." The bald man roared: "Chen Yu, my master will not let you off."

"Li Zhongyi, the fifth of the Thirteen Taibao?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.

"That's right, the Thirteen Taibao are of one mind; you dare..." The bald man revealed his sect background, his attitude clearly more arrogant than before.

Unfortunately, before he could finish his harsh words, Chen Yu slapped him again, and pfft... the other half of the bald man's teeth were spat out.

"Even if your master came, he wouldn't dare speak to me like that." Chen Yu kicked the bald man flying: "Tell him to crawl over here to redeem his man."
