Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Dr. Xu Is the Most Fair

In the morning, they came to claim the truck, and there was still a debt of over a hundred thousand. Just two hours later, somehow it became two hundred thousand. Xiao Li was so anxious his face turned red.

"Weren’t we talking about a hundred grand? How did it become two hundred? You might as well be robbing us."

Seeing Liu Pangzi’s greedy face, Xu Xiangbei said with disgust, "Why should I give you two hundred thousand?"

Liu Pangzi smirked cunningly, "First, the debt should include a year’s interest. Given the skyrocketing prices nowadays, everything is going up. A hundred grand easily turns into two hundred after a year. Second, two hundred thousand is a round number, easy to remember. No money, no truck."

Xu Xiangbei sneered, "If you’re this greedy, I won’t give you even a penny."

Xu Xiangbei went to the transport yard to look for the company’s ore-pulling truck.

Liu Pangzi immediately went into a rage, "Kid, you’re not here to claim a truck; you’re here to cause trouble. Brothers, surround him and show him what we’re made of."

Seven or eight burly truck drivers, fierce and menacing, surrounded him, scaring Xiao Li into pulling Xu Xiangbei away: "President Xu, run, we won’t make it if you don’t go now."

Afraid that Xiao Li and Xu Xiangbei would escape, one truck driver sneered, reaching out to grab Xu Xiangbei’s arm: "Kid, you’re really bold, coming here alone to cause trouble. Since you’re here, don’t leave."

Just as his hand was about to grab Xu Xiangbei’s arm, Xu Xiangbei flipped his wrist, instead grabbing the driver’s wrist, and with an over-the-shoulder throw, he tossed the man to the ground.

The truck driver groaned in pain, "Ouch, my arm, it hurts!"

"You dare make a move, you’re courting death!"

"If we don’t beat you, you won’t know how tough we are."

The truck drivers all charged at Xu Xiangbei, fists ready, one by one being thrown heavily to the ground.

Xiao Li was stunned, already with his phone out to call the police, but seeing all the truck drivers floored by Xu Xiangbei, he pocketed his phone again.

Seeing his men all down, Liu Pangzi’s face turned colorless in fear. He quickly made a phone call, shouting at Xu Xiangbei as he dialed: "You dare make a move, let’s see if you can run now, I’m calling in a martial arts expert, don’t you dare leave."_

"Martial arts expert? Fine, I’ll wait here and see what kind of martial arts expert you find."

Xu Xiangbei sat in Liu Pangzi’s deck chair, turned on the radio, and listened to the music playing.

The truck drivers who had been thrown down were getting up one by one. When Xu Xiangbei had thrown them, he’d used a bit of force, twisting their tendons; each of their arms felt like they were broken and couldn’t move without excruciating pain.

Outside, Liu Pangzi’s voice came through the phone: "Lu Daan, someone’s causing trouble here, come quick, don’t deliver today, get over here."

Liu Pangzi confidently burst into the office, seeing Xu Xiangbei lying in his lounge chair, biting his teeth in hatred: "Kid, you’re done for, our martial arts expert is on his way."

Xiao Li looked worried, taken aback by Liu Pangzi’s mention of a martial arts expert.

But Xu Xiangbei was dismissive: "You’re talking about Lu Daan from the Lu Family Fist? I’m not sure about others, but if it’s the Lu Daan I know, when he comes, not only won’t he dare hit me, he’ll beat you up. Believe it or not."

Liu Pangzi wore a look of confusion; it seemed like Xu Xiangbei actually knew Lu Daan. He remembered Lu Daan practiced Lu Family Fist, but he didn’t believe Xu Xiangbei, thinking he was just trying to scare him.

He sneered, "Kid, who do you think you are? He won’t dare hit you but will hit me? Impossible."

Soon, a large truck roared into the transport yard, its engine vibrating violently, making it feel like the ground was shaking.

A robust man jumped down from the truck, tall, wearing sunglasses, looking aggressive. It was Lu Daan, and behind him were two other strong truck drivers.

Seeing his colleagues, all holding their arms and groaning with a beaten look, a truck driver behind Lu Daan shouted, "Who did this? Who dared hit us?"

Xu Xiangbei blew a smoke ring, walked out of the office, and calmly said, "I did it, so what?"

Lu Daan immediately recognized Xu Xiangbei and was stunned, removing his sunglasses, he asked in confusion, "Dr. Xu, what happened? Did you injure all these men?"

"That’s right, they withheld my truck, be thankful I didn’t break their arms."

Seeing Lu Daan arrive, Liu Pangzi regained some spirit: "Daan, it’s this kid who injured our men, this bastard, deal with him for me..."

Slap, Lu Daan swung a palm across Liu Pangzi’s face, dazing him, uncertain of what just happened.

"Speak to Dr. Xu respectfully, if you dare disrespect him again, I’ll knock all your teeth out."

Liu Pangzi held his swollen cheek, cold sweat streaming from his forehead, not daring to say a word, while Xiao Lizi looked excited; President Xu was right, after Lu Daan came, not only did he not hit President Xu, he slapped Liu Pangzi.

Lu Daan respectfully said to Xu Xiangbei, "Dr. Xu, I’m sorry, our colleagues didn’t know you and offended you, please forgive us."

Xu Xiangbei blew a smoke ring, "Ignorance is no excuse. My ore truck was detained; I need to drive it back."

Lu Daan shouted at Liu Pangzi, "You dared detain Dr. Xu’s truck, are you looking for trouble? Hurry and return the truck to him."

Though Liu Pangzi is the boss, in the transport yard, everyone recognizes Lu Daan as the leader, knowing his fists are strong, and with him around, no one dares to bully the team, so Liu Pangzi doesn’t dare offend Lu Daan either.

"But they still owe me money."

Lu Daan widened his eyes, speaking firmly, "Even so, you can’t detain the truck. Other trucks you can detain, but not Dr. Xu’s."

Xu Xiangbei smiled, "I will definitely pay you what we owe, but don’t overcharge. Tell me, how much does our Thunderbird Group actually owe you?"

With Lu Daan there, Liu Pangzi dared not overcharge: "A hundred and fifteen thousand."

Xu Xiangbei took out a cash check from his pocket, directly writing a check for 120,000 and handing it to Liu Pangzi: "Here is 120,000, an extra 5,000 as a year’s interest, which I think is quite fair."

Liu Pangzi’s face showed a joyous expression, thinking the money would be unrecoverable, quickly nodding and bowing: "Fair, Dr. Xu is very fair."

"Send someone to help me drive the truck back. We’ll frequently be hauling ore from the East Sand Mine, and I’ll entrust your team to handle it. I won’t short your freight charges, settle them with your delivery receipts, payment for each trip, never delaying payment, but you must prioritize our orders first."
