Chapter 463 You are fired
This scene also attracted many customers in the store. They didn't understand why a good magic wand was smashed.
Noticing that many people were looking in this direction, a woman dressed differently from the other waiters came out and said to Liu Chi and Maggie who was exerting her strength,
"My dear customers, your behavior has damaged the image of our store. If you are just dissatisfied with the items you purchased, you can vent your anger outside. Otherwise, please compensate for the losses caused to the store."
The female manager spoke to the two of them calmly and politely with a fake smile.
Liu Chi followed the female manager's words and asked,
"According to you, I need to compensate for the loss of the store?"
After hearing Liu Chi's words, the female manager was a little confused. She originally just wanted to kick the two out in a tactful way, but she didn't expect Liu Chi to take up the issue.
The female manager watched as more and more guests were eating melons. Relying on her noble status, she got excited and opened her mouth to ask for a huge amount of money.
"You two have seen it too. There are nobles all around us. They could have spent a lot of magic items. But because of your riot, we have lost an inestimable amount of magic items. So don't even think about leaving. You either pay the money or go to the prison and talk to the judge."
Liu Chi took a quick look around and found that the number of onlookers could be counted on two hands, and the highest noble was only a viscount.
Liu Chi couldn't help but laugh and asked,
"Tell me, how much compensation do you need?"
Considering that Liu Chi had just paid the twenty diamond coins without blinking an eye, she blurted out,
"One hundred diamond coins only buy a few high-end magic items. The nobles present here cannot afford them."
Liu Chi ignored the female manager and walked slowly in the store.
Liu Chi's behavior made the female manager think that he was trying to escape, so she shouted to the waiter beside her,
"Go find the soldiers on the street and tell them that there is a disturbance in the store! Go and block the gate and don't let these two guys get away."
Seeing this, the other waiters immediately followed the instructions of the female manager and took action.
Maggie walked towards Liu Chi with some concern and asked in a low voice,
"Is this okay? The laws of the empire don't allow for such trouble!"
Liu Chi laughed, turned his head, and said to Maggie,
"We are not causing any trouble. Don't be fooled by other people's rhetoric. She just took advantage of the presence of nobles in the store. And I tell you, it is because of your simple status that this group of people bullied you. Those accessories were put on the nobles' hands by the shop assistants themselves."
After listening to Liu Chi's words, Maggie's sense of guilt suddenly disappeared, and she waited with a determined look in her eyes for possible patrol soldiers to appear.
While waiting, Liu Chi walked around the entire store, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.
Not long after, the woman who had gone out to report walked into the store with a group of five patrol soldiers. At this time, except for the two nobles who insisted on staying to eat melons, only the clerk and Liuchi Maggie were left in the store.
Although Liu Chi was very famous in the upper class, his oriental appearance was confusing to Westerners. In addition, not many people had seen Liu Chi, so the five soldiers who came did not know Liu Chi.
After seeing Liu Chi's oriental appearance, the team leader walked up to the two of them slowly and asked,
"I heard you two were causing trouble here? Smashing things in the store, huh? Please come with us and don't disturb other people's business."
Facing the soldier's words, Liu Chi laughed and said slowly,
"Brother, you may be mistaken. The situation on the scene is that these waiters have different attitudes towards customers. As the actual owner of the store, I am just training the staff."
Liu Chi's words made Maggie's eyes widen. After a moment of confusion, he completely believed Liu Chi's words, but he always felt something was wrong in his heart.
After hearing this, the team leader frowned slightly. Before he could say anything, the woman who first received Maggie started talking.
"Sir, he is not the owner of the shop. Look here, there are traces of being smashed on the ground. Don't be fooled by him."
After listening to the woman, the female manager also added,
"Yes! Sir, this shop is under the name of Count Mikel!"
The team leader looked at Liu Chi. He didn't say anything, but waited for Liu Chi's opinion.
The air suddenly became quiet for a while, but the team leader couldn't hold it in any longer and asked,
"Is there anything you want to say?"
Liu Chi shook his head and said,
"Brother, you can check and find out whether what I said is true or not. There must be a branch of Alice Chamber of Commerce near this commercial street. You just need to go and ask."
"Sir, don't listen to his nonsense, arrest him quickly. You can see the wreckage on the ground. It was done by these two people. The two nobles present can testify to this!"
The team leader raised his hand, signaling the female manager to stop talking, and asked Liu Chi,
"Is what she said true? About you destroying the merchandise?"
Liu Chi nodded without denying.
"It was indeed me who had the wand smashed, but I also said the premise that I was managing my employees, and this is the rule of our store."
Liu Chi's tone was very gentle, and he did not become stressed or irritable like the female manager.
The team leader glared at the female manager who was about to explode with a lot to say, and said,
"How about this, I'll have someone check the store information. If it's as this gentleman said, he's just training employees, then we'll just withdraw. But if it's as the clerk said, then you'll have to accompany us, sir."
Liu Chi smiled and nodded with satisfaction.
At the same time, the waiters in the store also became happy.
Under the arrangement of the squad leader, the two soldiers left the store.
Not long after, the two men came back. One of them covered his mouth with his hand and whispered something in the captain's ear, but Liu Chi heard it clearly.
"Boss, we have found out that these are the assets under the name of Count Mikel."
After listening to his soldiers, the captain's brows relaxed, and he quickly scanned everyone's faces and said to Liu Chi,
"Sir, please come with me. I have already checked and found that this is Count Mikel's shop."
After hearing what the team leader said, the female manager immediately became excited and said quickly,
"Sir, this guy has delayed our business. Should he compensate us for the loss? Or will you help us recover the loss later?"
The team leader said politely to the female manager,
"How much compensation does he need to pay you? When the interrogation is over, I will bring the money to you."
"Two hundred diamond coins."
Faced with irrefutable evidence, the female manager reported a slightly higher amount.
When Liu Chi heard the female manager raise the amount to two hundred, he laughed helplessly.
Maggie on the side looked at Liu Chi with a puzzled look. At this moment, he was full of distrust of Liu Chi. He didn't believe that Liu Chi would lie to him.
"Sir! Come with us."
The team leader looked at Liu Chi with some impatience.
Liu Chi sighed softly and looked calmly at the clerk with a smug look on his face.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the front of the store, and a man in a black work uniform ran in. He took two breaths and said to the two soldiers who had just left,
"Hello, I just received a notice that this store has been transferred from Earl Mikel to Baron Zach."
As he spoke, the man looked around the store and saw Liu Chi who was half-surrounded by soldiers. He suddenly laughed and continued,
"It just so happens that Baron Zach is in the store. Here, this is the notification letter of asset transfer. Please sign and confirm."
The man immediately took out a folded piece of paper from his uniform, walked around the soldier and came to Liu Chi.
"Please sign your name. I'm sorry I'm late."
Liu Chi nodded. Although he didn't know who the man in front of him was, he was sure that the information he had just sent to Alice had worked. Liu Chi had wanted to delay it for a while, but he didn't expect that Alice's Chamber of Commerce was so efficient.
The team leader also came forward curiously, and after repeatedly confirming that this was the asset certificate issued by the Alice Chamber of Commerce, his attitude towards Liu Chi took a 180-degree turn.
"So it's you, Lord Baron. Your employees are really unruly. We won't bother you anymore. We will remember the trouble we have caused you during this period. Please don't take it to heart."
Liu Chi laughed and said to the team leader,
"Brother, this is a matter over there. After all, it is your job to maintain law and order. No matter who makes a mistake, they cannot escape the laws of the empire, right?"
The team leader nodded and bowed quickly, then left the store happily with the other four people.
The female manager and the waiters were completely stunned by this sudden change, as if their brains were hit by something.
"Maggie, I'll leave this store to you, figure out what to do."
Liu Chi sat back on the original sofa, and the two melon-eating nobles in the store also consciously left the store at this time.
Maggie smiled evilly, pointed at the waiters in the store one by one and said,
"You're fired, and you, too, you! You! You! You can pack up and get out."
There were seven waiters in the store, and Maggie only left the girl who was sitting at the counter and was responsible for collecting money.
