Chapter 287 Go ask Wang Peng for medical expenses
Wang Peng wasn't angry. Ever since this kid became the president of Brilliant, he'd become increasingly arrogant.
The next morning at 10:30, Li Mingzhu called him to have lunch.
My parents-in-law were watching TV in the living room, and the whole family was enjoying themselves.
Just then, someone knocked on the door. Wang Peng went to open it and said with a smile, "Uncle, what brings you here?"
"How could I not come when Mingzhu is pregnant?" Li Keyong said, carrying a bag of eggs. "Eating more eggs will help you have a boy."
“It’s the same for men and women.” Wang Peng took the eggs from his hand, opened the refrigerator, and put them inside.
Li Mingzhu shouted, "I want to have a son, then a daughter, I want both a son and a daughter."
Everyone laughed upon hearing this.
Duan Cuilu praised her daughter, saying that she definitely had to have a son so that he could inherit the Wang family business in the future.
Wang Peng went to the kitchen to eat a few bites of food and then watched TV with his family.
At eleven o'clock, Li Mingzhu yawned frequently, so she went back to her bedroom to sleep.
I went to bed too late yesterday, and my parents-in-law also went back to their room to sleep, leaving only Wang Peng and Li Keyong in the living room.
After watching the videotape of Zhou Shun accepting money, Li Keyong frowned.
Such secretly filmed videos are generally not accepted by the courts unless the person who paid the money becomes a witness for the prosecution. However, bribery can also lead to imprisonment.
Li Keyong said, "Give me the videotape, and I'll make a few copies. But it'll be difficult to bring down Zhou Shun with just this videotape."
“Unless a large number of interns report being exploited, coupled with this videotape, it’s unlikely that Zhou Shun will be brought down,” Li Keyong added.
Wang Peng immediately thought of the thirty senior students who had interned at Huihuang.
Li Keyong added, "This matter can't be rushed, leave it to me."
"That's great, only professionals can do professional things." Wang Peng nodded hurriedly.
Ten days later, the Brothers Supermarket officially opened, and Wang Peng drove his wife to the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Traffic was congested before we even reached the supermarket entrance. The area outside the supermarket was packed with people, and traffic police and other officers were maintaining order.
"Why are there so many people?" Wang Peng was a little confused. Looking around, all he could see were a sea of heads.
An elderly couple stood in the crowd waiting; the old man was holding his four- or five-year-old grandson, and the old woman was carrying a basket.
Li Mingzhu smiled and said, "Hello, Grandpa and Grandma."
The old lady was taken aback. "Good girl, that's a really nice way to call me 'Grandma'."
Li Mingzhu asked, "Grandma, is Brother Supermarket having any promotions? Why are you buying things here?"
The old lady smiled and said, "I plan to buy a few pounds of eggs and two bottles of wine for my husband."
At this moment, the old man interjected, "I only buy wine from Brothers. During the few days that Brothers is closed, I don't dare to buy wine outside. There are too many fake wines."
Li Mingzhu nodded and reached out to tease the little boy, saying, "Grandpa and Grandma, I wish you good health."
"Thank you, my dear child," the old lady said.
Wang Peng led his wife inside and saw a tall, strong young man standing at attention in the crowd, who must have received military training.
Intrigued, he smiled and struck up a conversation, "Brother, may I ask you something? Are you also here to shop with us?"
The young man nodded without saying a word.
Wang Peng pressed further, "With so many people here, why don't you go to other supermarkets?"
The young man said, "I heard there are no counterfeit goods here."
Wang Peng smiled slightly. He was a man of few words, the kind who was ruthless but didn't talk much.
A middle-aged woman with permed hair said, "Young man, you may not know this, but this shop used to be Qinghui No. 2. After Qinghui had its accident, it was taken over by Boss Wang from the sister store."
"At the time, a lot of stock was left behind, including a lot of counterfeit goods. Guess what? Mr. Wang actually picked out all the counterfeit goods and threw them on the street to give away for free. It even made the newspapers and TV at the time."
"Now everyone in the provincial capital knows that I don't lie. Just for that reason, as long as my goods aren't outrageously expensive, I'll come here to buy things from now on."
After finishing her explanation in one breath, the woman with the permed hair smiled slightly, her face displaying the air of a seasoned veteran instructing a novice.
"Haha." Wang Peng laughed and gave her a thumbs up. "Big sister, I often stay at home and don't go out, so I really don't understand like you do."
The woman with the permed hair smiled and said, "Young comrade, the world is so big, you should come out and see it."
Just then, Wang Peng's phone rang. He took out his phone to answer the call and instantly became the coolest guy around.
Landline phones are now a luxury for the wealthy, and mobile phone users are extremely rare.
The woman who had her hair permed blushed and quickly turned her head to look straight ahead.
Even people who rarely leave their homes can use mobile phones. The world is so big, and I know so little about it.
The call was from Du Lei; it would be eight o'clock in five minutes.
The branch director Feng Dali, the director of the drug administration bureau, and other distinguished guests who were specially invited to cut the ribbon for the brother were blocked outside by the crowd and could not squeeze in at all.
Wang Peng was both amused and exasperated. "Then we won't cut it. We'll open for business at eight o'clock sharp and not keep our customers waiting too long."
He had just hung up the phone when another call came in; it was from Feng Dali, the head of the college district public security bureau.
"Xiao Peng, your business is so good that I can't get in because I'm stuck outside. I won't cut the ribbon."
"No need to cut it, I didn't expect it to be so popular," Wang Peng said.
"I have already reported this to my superiors. They are worried about a stampede and have already sent special police over," Feng Dali said.
"Holy crap." Wang Peng was completely dumbfounded; this scene had gotten a bit out of hand.
Just then, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "The supermarket is open! The supermarket is open!"
A commotion broke out in the crowd. Wang Peng felt the pressure and immediately pulled his wife into his arms.
The couple moved slowly with the crowd and soon saw armed personnel outside.
They were on high alert, worried about unexpected incidents such as riots, theft, and stampedes.
At 10:30 a.m., Wang Peng finally saw the supermarket entrance, where many police officers were directing people to line up.
"Good heavens, why are there so many people?" Wang Peng scratched his head, realizing he wouldn't be able to get into the supermarket before 11 a.m.
"Hehe." Li Mingzhu laughed out loud, "Honey, we can't get into our own supermarket."
"It was quite sudden." Wang Peng was also helpless; the sheer volume of people exceeded his expectations.
……
Wang Song walked out of the First People's Hospital, sat down next to the flower bed, and tears welled up in his eyes.
He was diagnosed with hepatitis C, and doctors suspect he was infected three years ago, around the time he sold his blood to pay for Wang Cheng's tuition.
After a long while, he wiped away his tears and took the bus to Huihuang Supermarket.
When the bus passed the Brothers Supermarket, it was blocked by a crowd, and a group of traffic police officers struggled to direct the traffic.
The driver said, "It's the opening day of Brother Supermarket, so there are a lot of people. Please bear with us."
"Master, please open the back door. I'd like to go buy something too," a middle-aged man said.
Bang! The back door of the bus opened, and all the passengers got off, leaving only Wang Song.
"Haha." Wang Song couldn't help but laugh out loud. With his eldest son's business doing so well, he wouldn't have to worry about the future.
"Brother, why don't you go check out Brother's Supermarket?" the driver said with a smile. "Everyone says Brother doesn't sell counterfeit goods, I want to see if it's true."
“It’s definitely true,” Wang Song said. “I know my boss’s temperament; he’s a serious person.”
Half an hour later, Wang Song returned to Brilliant Supermarket and met Wang Cheng in the president's office.
After reviewing his medical report, Wang Cheng said in a deep voice, "The four of us siblings will split your medical expenses. Go and ask Wang Peng for this month's medical expenses first."
