"Huai, going out into the world has apparently not taught you anything else but to inflate your bragging skills. Go, let Director Dongfang worry about how to help us common folk." Zhang Lao'er assumed Li Huai was joking and refused to believe him.
Li Huai's previous statement about the opponent being not only the biggest criminal in Liang County and connected to the secretary of the county committee but also a relative, had left even Director Dongfang looking worried. It was clear that the opponent would be hard to handle. Could it be that Li Huai actually had the guts to handle him?
"Zhang Lao'er, if I'm bragging, I'm a nothing." Li Huai extended his little finger while speaking.
"You're not bragging? Okay, dare you bring the price of apples per kilogram up to 3 yuan for me!" Zhang Lao'er spoke angrily.
"Alright, 3 yuan it is!" Li Huai answered affirmatively, utterly convinced. Still, Zhang Lao'er did not believe him.
