Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

After Wang An finished speaking, seeing that the sales clerk was about to speak, he immediately continued:

"Let me tell you, I'm here to buy a camera. I don't want to argue with you. I just want to ask you, how much is that Seagull camera? Can you tell me?"

To be honest, Wang An really couldn't be bothered to argue. The main reason was that arguing like a shrew was pointless. In Wang An's opinion, a real man should have a real fight, with punches and kicks exchanged, to get the satisfaction out of it.

Wang An kept trying to provoke the other party and provoke them to make the first move, but the salesperson had no courage to "beat a customer without cause" and just stayed behind the counter, showing that he was nothing.

It must be said that although the salesperson didn't dare to lay a hand on him, he was still very defiant with his words. Of course, it's also possible that he was provoked by Wang An's verbal abuse.

Therefore, after Wang An finished speaking, the salesperson looked displeased and said:
"I don't know, and even if I did, I wouldn't tell you, so what?"

Wang An continued to suppress his anger, deliberately speaking in a commanding tone:
"Alright, I won't ask anymore. I'll just buy that Seagull SLR camera, okay? Come on, give me the receipt."

As he spoke, Wang An tapped the counter with his fingers, looking utterly arrogant.

The reason Wang An did this was simply to continue to lure the other party into making the first move, because once the other party made the first move, Wang An wouldn't be so reckless as to beat him up.

To everyone's surprise, the salesperson actually got carried away and refused without hesitation:
"If I can't close the deal, I won't sell to you."

At that moment, the salesperson's arrogant and overbearing demeanor almost stunned Wang An.

Of course, it wasn't just Wang An who was stunned; even the sales clerks at the other counters were taken aback when they heard the words "I won't sell it to you," and they all subconsciously shook their heads.

The main point is that salespeople can be rude, make things difficult for customers, find any excuse or reason not to sell to customers, and even verbally abuse or beat customers if there are extenuating circumstances. However, they cannot directly say "I won't sell" because that is a bottom line issue!
That's right, that's the truth, because "no beating without cause" actually means "beating is permissible when there is a reason."

That's a valid understanding.

If he, as a salesperson, dared to refuse Wang An's perfectly reasonable request to buy a camera, then Wang An would have no problem behaving himself if he beat him up.

So Wang An suddenly raised his voice and shouted loudly, as if the whole mall could hear him:
"I want to buy a camera, why won't you sell it to me? What right do you have to refuse to sell it to me? I'm just asking you, why won't you sell it to me?"

While shouting loudly, Wang An suddenly bent down and reached out. With his right hand gripping the outer edge of the counter and his left hand grabbing the salesperson by the collar, he pulled her forward forcefully. Caught off guard, the salesperson was dragged onto the counter, and Wang An's right hand slapped her with lightning speed.

A sharp "snap" echoed throughout the mall, sending a shiver down everyone's spine.

Strangely enough, the sound of a slap in the face wasn't very loud, but it traveled quite a distance in the mall.

However, Wang An really put a lot of force into slapping the sales clerk, because he swung his arm around the clerk with all his might.

But then came the second, the third, and the fourth crisp sound.

Along with the sounds of "slap," "slap," "slap," "slap," Wang An's furious, rapid-fire questioning followed one after another:

"Why won't you sell the camera to the old farmer?" "Do you look down on old farmers?"

"Does that mean an illiterate old farmer can't buy things?"

"How many days have you even had a full meal?"

"So you look down on old farmers?"

"Tell me, why won't you sell me the camera?"

At this moment, Wang An appeared to be furious and insane, but inwardly he felt quite relaxed and happy.

The main reason was that Wang An vented all his frustration and anger by slapping the saleswoman repeatedly across the face.

Just as Wang An had struck the ground a dozen times, three security guards from the mall suddenly rushed over.

The reason why it took so long but only a few slaps was because the saleswoman was not behaving herself when she was being slapped; she kept twisting and struggling to fight back.

While Wang An's arm and wrist strength were indeed very strong, they weren't exaggerated to the point that he could control a strong man with one hand. Therefore, under these circumstances, being able to slap the salesperson a dozen times was actually a very impressive achievement.

Only when the three security guards shouted at Wang An to "Stop! Stop it now!" did Wang An reluctantly release the saleswoman.

However, Wang An still loudly complained:

"You dare not sell me a camera? Just you wait. I'll have a good talk with your Ling Island in a bit. If Ling Island doesn't do anything about it, I'll report you to the Commerce Bureau. If the Commerce Bureau doesn't do anything about it, I'll report you to the Municipal Government. I just want to know why you won't sell me a camera. I don't believe that no one can control you."

Wang An seems to have always had the phrase "Why won't you sell me a camera?" on his lips, maximizing its intimidating power.

Because Wang An knew very well where the salesperson's weakness lay. As long as he kept bringing up the phrase "not selling" and made a big fuss, it would definitely end up being left unresolved.

State-run stores always have security personnel present. After all, the people in the stores are diverse, many of the goods are very expensive, and there are so many cash deposits in the finance office. If a robber were to commit a robbery or violence, it would be a very serious loss.

For some reason, the security personnel took so long to come out and stop it, leaving the saleswoman to get slapped across the face.

After the three security guards ran up to him, one of them shouted at Wang Andao:
"What are you doing? Do you know where you are? You dare to cause trouble here? Come with us to the security room right now."

The security guard reprimanded Wang An, and the other two were about to step forward to restrain him, but Wang Li and Mu Xueli stepped forward one by one, each blocking one of the security guards. Huang Zhong was even more ruthless, actually taking the long, rectangular sack he had been carrying on his back and holding it in his hand.

When Wang An saw Huang Zhong's actions, he was immediately startled, mainly because what was wrapped in the sack was none other than the Type 56 assault rifle used to scare people.

Wang An subtly shifted his feet, reached out and pulled Huang Zhong back, giving him a fierce glare. (End of Chapter)
