In the evening.
As expected, the four members of the Su family came again.
And they deliberately chose to arrive during the busiest time for meals.
Xu Xiaoqin was so angry that she wanted to stop them from entering the house, but she was afraid that a crowd would cause a scene and affect Su Yi.
She could only clench her teeth and glare.
When Su Yi saw them, she didn’t say anything. She just asked Xu Xiaoqin to find them a place near the front desk and let them sit down.
Then she deliberately sent Xu Xiaoqin away to help in the kitchen, while she stood at the front desk to collect money.
Every time someone finished eating and paid, Su Yi would deliberately count the money in public. After counting, she wouldn’t put it away, but directly threw it into the drawer at the front desk.
The key to the drawer was also left on the table in plain sight.
Su Erqiang and Su Sanhu’s eyes lit up, and they even forgot that they were hungry.
While Su Yi was busy counting money, Jiang Yuan and Liuzi suddenly arrived in their truck.
As soon as they entered, they greeted Su Yi, “After our last visit, we went down south again. We just heard about what happened in your town yesterday when we came back. Are you okay?”
Su Yi smiled, “It was a close call. I have to thank you two.”
If it hadn’t been for their reminder, Su Yi wouldn’t have prepared the chili water in advance.
It was a stroke of luck that it came in handy.
So, Su Yi politely asked them to sit down and eat, saying she would treat them today.
Jiang Yuan and Liuzi were naturally delighted. “But we came here for something this time. Last time, you said you wanted us to help you find out if there were any refrigerators at a reasonable price, right? We went down south to buy goods this time, and we brought you a freezer back.”
Su Yi was immediately excited and couldn’t wait to go outside and see it.
The few people who were busy in the kitchen heard that a freezer had arrived and came over to see it out of curiosity.
The weather was getting hotter day by day, and everyone was worried about how to store meat and other things. Now that a freezer had arrived, they wouldn’t have to worry anymore.
Su Yi immediately asked the price and had Zhang Tianhua and the others move the freezer back to the kitchen.
Right after that, Su Yi saw several TV sets on the truck.
She quickly asked, “Did you bring these TV sets from the south too?”
Jiang Yuan nodded and smiled, “That’s right. The TV sets from the south are of good quality and cheap. They only cost 400 yuan each. If you want one, Boss Su , how about 360 yuan each?”
Su Yi was immediately interested.
If she bought a TV and put it in the shop, people could watch TV in their spare time, and it would definitely attract more customers to the restaurant.
“Okay, I’ll take one,” she said, nodding after a moment’s thought.
Thinking of the Su family still being around, Su Yi quietly instructed the two, “But don’t move the TV now. I’ll bring it in later tonight after you’ve finished eating.”
Jiang Yuan nodded without hesitation, “Okay. We’re not leaving tonight. We’re planning to sell the remaining TVs in town tomorrow.”
Liuzi quickly agreed, “We’ve been driving long distances for the past few days and are exhausted. We only have a few TVs left to sell. It’s better to move everything to Sister Su’s shop tonight. We can then go to the guesthouse and get some good sleep.”
Su Yi didn’t think much of it. They were staying at the shop tonight anyway.
She readily agreed, planning to move the TVs to the second floor later when everyone had left.
While Su Yi and the two were talking outside.
The Su family’s four pairs of eyes were secretly watching the truck.
Seeing that they had just carried a refrigerator down from it, and Su Yi was whispering to the two men, they knew there must be more good things on the truck.
They didn’t even bother to eat, and immediately left with ulterior motives.
After leaving the restaurant, they went back to the guesthouse and started to secretly discuss.
“I saw it with my own eyes. There was a few hundred yuan in the front desk drawer, and the lock was easy to pick. I didn’t even bother to steal the key. Stealing it would only draw her attention.”
“Does she keep the money in the drawer at night?”
“I think so. The drawer is open during the day, and the lock is definitely for nighttime use. I’ll go check it out with Third Brother tonight.”
“I wonder what was on that truck? It must have been a lot of valuable stuff. I heard it was brought back from the South.”
While they were talking, Su Sanhu, who had been looking out the window, suddenly shouted, “Come and see.”
They all gathered around.
Then they saw that the truck in front of Su Yi’s restaurant, which had been covered with a tarpaulin, was suddenly opened, and they saw several people carrying televisions down one after another.
“My goodness, so many TVs? How can that little girl be so extravagant to buy so many TVs?”
“Why ask? She must have made a lot of money from running the restaurant. I saw that there are many private rooms on the second floor of the restaurant. These TVs are probably for people to watch in the private rooms.”
While they exclaimed, they started to secretly plan.
“Anyway, I don’t think it’s easy to take the restaurant back from her. We’ve been here twice and haven’t even had a sip of water. Instead of wasting time with her, why not just take these TVs and sell them?”
“I think so too. We’ll take the TVs to the county and sell them. Once we’re done, we’ll go home.”
Su Xingfa hesitated, “But what if that little girl reports it to the police?”
Zhang Guilan scoffed, “What are you afraid of? We’re family. Even if we take a few TVs from her, what’s the big deal? How can family be considered stealing?”
Su Erqiang also rubbed his hands together, eager to try, “That’s right. Tonight, when no one is around, I’ll find a cart and quietly take the stuff to the county. Where can she find it?”
After a quick discussion, they decided on their plan for the evening.
They were so excited that they didn’t even bother with dinner, just grabbing a few steamed buns from their luggage and washing them down with hot water. All they could do was wait for nightfall.
To make room for the group, Su Yi specifically sent Zhang Tianhua and Li Jianguo away.
This was solely to make it easier for them to carry out their plan.
Su Yi originally planned to watch over the situation alone.
However, Zhou Jinchuan refused to let her go by herself, and in the end, they both sat in the car, watching the hotel entrance from a distance.
Su Yi felt a little embarrassed about this, “I feel weird dragging you along to do something shady.”
Zhou Jinchuan smiled, his lips slightly pursed, “I’m your partner, and I wouldn’t let you do this alone. Should I let Qin Yunfeng come instead?”
Su Yi raised an eyebrow and laughed, “That was a sudden burst of jealousy.”
Zhou Jinchuan paused for a moment before continuing, “I heard he’s been coming to see you often since his divorce. Don’t tell me he’s trying to get back together with you?”
