Nan Feng asked again who it was, but Ruan Ye didn't say anything.
Xue Ling wanted to start a fight, but was stopped by Nan Feng. She believed that force couldn't solve the problem during such times, and the root cause must be looked into.
Nan Feng looked at Ruan Ye: "Ruan Ye, if we really have to fight, none of you guys are our match. So if you insist on closing the shop, in the end we would both be losers. What am I afraid of if I can't open my shop? At most, I'll land in jail for a few days and pay you some money. We've got money to spare. But as for you, would the Yamen want some handicapped layabouts?"
Nan Feng continued, "How about this, we each give in a bit. I can stop doing business for a few days, but you can't put a seal at the shop entrance. Otherwise, our hard-earned reputation would disappear. I'll put up a 'Closed for Three Days' sign outside the shop. You, go back and talk to your superior and see what we can do to avoid the shop's closure."
