Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 37
Chapter 37 The White-Clothed Youth
Everyone immediately fell silent, and the shopkeeper angrily said, “The words have already been pasted. Which blind person must find fault?”
“I read that word, but I don’t know what it mean. The food I brought is not the same kind of food in the shop. Look.” Su Wanwan said gently, and then took out the dishes that had already been divided into clean bowls. “This is a mountain treasure I picked by myself. I guess you don’t have such dishes in your shop. Then I’m not breaking the rules, am I?”
The shopkeeper didn’t buy it, “No! I just can’t! This is also a stir-fried dish, and it can be considered a similar dish!”
“Sure, then take what you said as correct.” Su Wanwan smiled and took out a lot of wooden ears and mushrooms that she had brought with her. “These are for you to compensate for your mistakes.”
The shopkeeper looked sideways at Mu Er and looked down on him. The waiter behind him immediately said, “Forget it, I don’t want the girl’s dishes anymore. The compensation that the girl said just now is three times the amount of silver.”
The waiter’s situation was very big. He admired Su Wanwan very much, but he didn’t have much good impression of the shopkeeper. He didn’t want to sell the things to Juese Restaurant anymore. He paid for the meal straightforwardly. The shopkeeper continued angrily, “Please leave.”
Su Wanwan nodded coldly. A few mouthfuls of Auricularia and Lentinus edodes stopped Su Wanwan. She pointed at some of the Auricularia edodes on the table and said, “Girl, how about selling those dishes to me? I’ll take forty pennies too!”
“What are you saying! Someone has just paid fifty cents! It’s too unkind of you to give me forty cents!”
“…”
Su Wanwan put on a sad expression, and the price was raised by everyone again.
They’re actually selling vegetables here!
The shopkeeper was very angry. Did he think this was a vegetable market? “Girl, get your stuff and get lost! Don’t make me say anything even uglier,” he said angrily.
Su Wanwan was stunned. Shouldn’t this shopkeeper be interested in her dishes? Su Wanwan did not understand this strange and stupid brain circuit.
“Shopkeeper,” the waiter suddenly said, covering his mouth and whispering something to the shopkeeper’s ear. The shopkeeper was so angry that he slapped the waiter’s head forcefully.
“What nonsense are you talking about! You still want me to buy her stuff? This is too embarrassing for her!”
From these words, Su Wanwan could deduce that the waiter had asked the shopkeeper to buy her things.
The one who bought her stuff was not her, but him!
This person didn’t have the slightest bit of eyesight. He really didn’t know how to become the shopkeeper of Juese Restaurant!
Su Wanwan shook her head and said, “Everyone, let’s go to the door to discuss. If you still need anything, I can go up the mountain to pick it for you. Just leave the address for me. After taking it off, I’ll send Shanzhen over to you. However, it may cost you two extra coins.”
Everyone here was dressed in silk cloth, and it seemed that they were rich. Su Wanwan was quite sure that she would not be rejected if she said so.
Sure enough, everyone nodded their heads. There was even a scholar who had his attendant take out a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone and write it down.
Just as Su Wanwan was about to lead everyone outside the door, she suddenly heard a young man’s sweet voice.
“Young lady, wait a moment!”
Su Wan turned her head and saw a white-clothed youth slowly walking down the stairs.
Upon seeing this youth, the shopkeeper’s face immediately turned pale. Why didn’t anyone tell him that the young master had actually come!
The shopkeeper immediately walked over and bent down a little, looking like a dog.
“Young Master, why are you here? Why don’t you have someone notify you in advance? The little one will definitely have someone prepare wine and dishes for you!”
“Heh, you have a heart.” As the white-clothed youth spoke, he did not even look at the shopkeeper and walked straight towards Su Wanwan.
The youth’s face was fair, his sword-eyebrows and starry eyes were like bright stars, and his entire body’s aura was refreshing. He truly had an extraordinary appearance. However, compared to Qi Chengfeng, Su Wanwan still felt that Qi Chengfeng was slightly superior.
“Miss, please step forward and speak.” The youth was gentle and elegant, and Su Wanwan immediately agreed to say “Good”.
Everyone was unhappy, “Young lady! You haven’t sold the vegetables to us yet! How can you leave?”
The white-clothed youth frowned. Only then did he realize that Su Wanwan’s goal was to sell the dish, and he had also taken a fancy to it.
“Don’t panic. After I have settled with this girl, I will ask the chef to prepare the dishes for you. Everyone can sit down and drink some wine later.” The white-clothed youth gestured for the waiter to lure Su Wanwan into the room.
The shopkeeper followed behind the white-clothed youth and said in a disgusted tone, “Little Young Master! You don’t know how excessive this girl is! She brought in dishes from other shops to eat, which is obviously a slap to the face of our restaurant! She even openly wants to sell vegetables in the restaurant! How excessive!”
“Shut up!” The white-clothed youth glared over, “Don’t follow up and ruin my business!”
The shopkeeper was stunned and didn’t dare to walk over.
In the private room.
As soon as Su Wanwan and the white-clothed youth sat down, Su Wanwan cut to the chase and said, “Since you want to buy my fungus and mushrooms, tell me first how much you want to pay me.”
Su Wanwan felt a little unhappy at the thought that this young master might be trying to lower the price.
“If you sell me the mountain treasure you mentioned, the money will be calculated according to the highest price everyone has just offered. If I give you another five pennies, it will be sixty pennies a jin. How about it?”
Sixty cents a jin?
‘”If I can sell you 60 cents a jin, what if others ask me for 70 cents a jin? Should I sell it or not?” Su Wan Wan’s expectations were not met.
The white-clothed youth’s face stiffened. He heard Su Wanwan say, “If you want to monopolize, I can promise you. However, you still have to mention the money.”
Sixty cents isn’t much? A kilogram of pork was only eighty cents!
This woman seemed to be just a peasant girl, but she actually opened her mouth wide! If he hadn’t taken a fancy to business opportunities, why would he have paid attention to her?
The white-clothed youth asked patiently, “How much do you want?”
Throw the pot to her? In this way, he was too passive, and it was impossible for him to offer a high price.
Su Wanwan smiled faintly and said, “It depends on you. However, I’m a little pressed for time now. You can tell me the price three times at most. If you can, I’ll agree. If the price is really not attractive, I’ll go to another house to take a look.”
No one had ever given him a strong sense of pressure when talking and laughing with him!
The white-clothed youth frowned and thought about how much money he would pay. He heard Su Wanwan say, “I’m sure that no one else has eaten this mountain treasure. If you buy it, you won’t lose anything. Furthermore, I will also sell you a few secret recipes for how to make it tasty. If you buy too much, I can give you one.”
Why did he feel that the young girl in front of him was so experienced? She was more like a businessman than him!
The white-clothed youth thought about what to do. Suddenly, the door of the private room was broken open. The shopkeeper ran in panicking and said, “Not good, not good! A guest fainted from poisoning! I asked! That guest just happened to have eaten the mountain treasure that the girl brought over!”
Su Wanwan stood up angrily, “Please pay attention to your words!”
Doesn’t this shopkeeper mean that her mountain treasures are poisonous? How many years had she eaten Auricularia and Lentinus edodes? She still didn’t know if they were poisoned or not.
This was simply a blatant accusation!
