There used to be a Fancy Red Pavilion in Wangquan Town as well, but sohow it had exited the town.
Instead, the Fancy Red Pavilion and Jade Seduction Pavilion in Wangshui Town competed against each other, each holding their own.
Li Shan had once tried to squeeze the Fancy Red Pavilion out of Wangshui Town, but he found it impossible to displace, even though at one point the establishnt hardly did any business, it still wouldn’t withdraw from Wangshui Town.
Not only that, but it was said that the Fancy Red Pavilion in Wangshui Town had recently acquired an astonishingly beautiful woman, who had stolen a significant portion of the Jade Seduction Pavilion’s clientele.
The last ti Li Shan even went to Brother An for advice, not expecting that today, this person would make their way to the Yang Family’s doorstep.
"You!" The woman with red lips had not expected Yang Chuxia to be so slick-tongued, and was montarily at a loss for words.
Of course, they could not admit that their establishnt was opened by the Emperor; that would just be inviting trouble for the Fancy Red Pavilion.
"Madam!" The pale-faced woman interjected upon hearing this, "Regardless of the Fancy Red Pavilion’s background, and no matter how powerful your Yang Family is, there is one indisputable fact you cannot talk your way out of—this Ms. Hong is a runaway from our establishnt. Furthermore, we are here to take her back."
"Hmph..." Yang Chuxia glanced at her and snorted coldly, "Runaway? You say she’s a runaway just like that? No matter where you co from, just roll back to where you ca from. If everyone did as you do, claiming today that soone from my family belongs to their establishnt, and tomorrow another claims soone else is a runaway, would there be any peace left to live by?"
"Moreover, you claim this person is a runaway from your establishnt, yet we bought her from a broker, and we still have her indenture contract. Even if you want her back, you should be speaking to the broker, not us."
As soon as Yang Chuxia finished speaking, the woman huffed and pulled an indenture contract from her sleeve, "I have her indenture contract as well!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia was taken aback for a mont, then laughed, "Faking an indenture contract is hardly a difficult feat. With the Fancy Red Pavilion’s strong backing and abundance of personnel and funds, forging such a docunt would be effortless for you, wouldn’t it?"
"So, what you’re saying is that you won’t let us take her back with us today, no matter what?" the red-lipped woman said darkly.
"Of course!" Yang Chuxia hadn’t even spoken when Land Officer Yang, supported by Yang Dayong, entered the scene. "Our Yang Family bought her, and just because you say she’s yours, she’s yours? Where’s your proof? Without proof, you co here to disrupt Yangshu Village. You think Yangshu Village is a pushover? Let tell you, our Yangshu Village is not the sa as the old one, to be bullied at will."
The red-lipped woman spoke with a sinister tone, "Well, if that’s the case, don’t bla us for using force!" She then gestured with her hand, prompting a dozen or so burly n to step forward.
Seeing this, Yang Chuxia directed the Yang Family and Ye Family servants to also step forward.
Was this gaping maw really brain-dead, to think that she could cause a commotion in Yangshu Village with just a few n? Did she really believe she could easily take soone away?
The more sensible pale-faced woman, realizing today’s plans had gone awry and that they didn’t have an advantage in manpower, thought it best to leave for now and devise a new strategy later. Her goal wasn’t necessarily to take soone away today anyway.
Still, she had to state their position.
"Since you, too, have an indenture contract for Ms. Hong, but we have one as well, to determine which is authentic, let’s go to the authorities," she said.
"That would be perfect. We can also ask the authorities to investigate how Ms. Hong ca to be at your Fancy Red Pavilion in the first place," Yang Chuxia replied.
