Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 449
Chapter 449 A Novel Scheme
“This is a courteous room for women?” How could he ask out the doubts in his heart?
The woman threw her fist over again. “You know this is a woman’s courtesy room! There’s a blue sign that says man’s courtesy room. Didn’t you see it? Gungun!”
“You, this” How could I be so shocked? I didn’t dare to enter, so I could only leave angrily.
At this moment, He Dewei cowered and retreated into the man’s courteous room. He saw that the items on the table were very complete, and there were many places for people to show their respect. On the side, there were also places such as water to wash their hands.
This … was a courteous room!
The two brothers went out and told each other what they had seen. Then, they aggressively walked towards Qi Manor and He De said, “Let’s go! Ask her what exactly is going on! Why did you use our shop as a courtesy room without our permission?”
“Alright!” How could they agree? The two of them moved very quickly.
However, before they could go, they were stopped by several strong men. “Why don’t you let others do respectful sex? This is good business! In the entire town, this is the only place to do business. Are you not convinced?”
How could he be convinced! He De and He Neng were furious. If this place sold these things and did this service, they wouldn’t know who to rent it from even if they had only 11 months left! Moreover, how would other people do business in this area?
Selling porridge? Selling food? Selling dry rations? Everyone knows that this is a courteous room. How do you like to buy things here? How much do they sell!
He De was very worried and said, “No! This matter is not good, I will not agree! Don’t laugh there, this is my shop!”
The two brothers were furious and aggressively pushed the man away towards the Qi Mansion.
As soon as he went to the Qi Manor, he explained his purpose of coming and saw Su Wanwan. “No matter what your status is, you are not allowed to do business in our shop!” He said.
“Is that a business you can’t do?” Su Wanwan smiled and asked the two of them.
“Yes.” The two brothers nodded.
Su Wanwan chuckled, “This isn’t against the law. Why can’t I? If not, why can’t I do this business with the magistrate of the county?”
“…”
How dare they! He De and He Neng were both shocked and frightened by Su Wanwan’s words.
The two of them thought for a while, and He De revealed a bitter smile. He knelt down to Su Wanwan with a “bang”. Thinking that he still needed the shop to cook some food for himself, they fell silent and said, “Madam, our brother is wrong, please stop! Otherwise, we won’t be able to rent that shop out!”
“You can’t rent it out?” Su Wanwan seemed to have heard an extremely funny remark. “I wanted to rent your shop for a year and gave you 30 taels of money. Originally, I wanted to give you 100 taels of silver a year. But now, something went wrong and I gave you all 30 taels of silver. Now, it’s considered one tael of silver a day. Such an astronomical rent is rare in this town, right?”
“…”
The two of them pondered for a moment and discovered that this was indeed the case. Moreover, a hundred taels of silver a year, that shop was indeed a reasonable price.
Now that he thought about it carefully, it was as if it was indeed the two of them who had let him do this bastard thing!
But now, he regretted it! He De cried out with a “wow”. A middle-aged man’s face was filled with worry and tears. “Madam, please forgive us if you have a lot of money! The two of us are wrong! We still have old mothers to take care of and children to study for the exam. Madam, please stop! Otherwise … we’ll rent this shop to you for a year!”
Su Wanwan looked at him coldly and did not change her expression. The two of them thought about it and said, “If not, I can sell it to you! It only costs 1,000 taels of silver!”
That shop costs a thousand taels of silver? She’s not stupid! Su Wanwan said coldly, “It’s not like I haven’t asked about the two of you. What kind of bastards did you do? Your father and mother have long since died, right? There’s only one son, but there’s a group of wives and concubines. There’s also a big house that you tricked them into obtaining. This kind of life looks very happy and rich. How can it be as miserable as you say?”
The two of them were stunned again. They didn’t expect Su Wanwan to inquire about this. They had nothing to say. They wanted to leave, but they were unwilling to accept it. They saw that there was no one beside them. Their hearts stirred as they turned back to Su Wanwan and said, “Madam, sell our shop! We are old acquaintances. We will give you a half price of five hundred taels of silver!”
A shop with a courteous room is worth money? Su Wanwan waved the teacup in her hand and said, “Fifty taels of silver is a deal! Not even a penny more!”
Fifty silver taels? The two brothers were stunned for a moment, and they felt that anger was about to burst out from their chests. “Fifty taels of silver isn’t even enough for the wood in that shop! That shop is made of top-grade wood, and that wage …” they said.
“Since you two are unwilling to leave, I have no intention of making a profit in that place. Fifty silver taels is already a loss, so it’s useless to buy it. If you don’t want to sell it, go find someone else to buy it.” Su Wanwan said indifferently. She put down the teacup in her hand and said, “The two of you also drank your tea. Let’s go back.”
She was driving people away! The two of them looked at each other helplessly. Thinking that the shop had no other benefits, they agreed. Fifty taels of silver sold the whole shop to Su Wanwan, and then left with the contract and the banknotes.
Qi Chengfeng brought the chicken soup over and said, “Why should I buy it? Originally, I rented it for 100 taels of silver for a year, but now, I bought the entire shop for 50 taels of silver. It doesn’t sound like a loss, but it can’t be used for other purposes.”
“No, there are other livelihoods that can earn a lot of money.” As Su Wanwan spoke, her pair of watercut eyes seemed to be filled with silver.
Qi Chengfeng asked, “What do you do for a living?”
‘”This public courtesy room can be said to be good. The facilities are also good. I will invite the carpenter in tomorrow to put up a sign. When the people who went in see me, if you want to make such a good courtesy room at home, you must invite the carpenter to do it. Isn’t there a job for the carpenter? Am I not rich?” Su Wanwan smiled as she looked at Qi Chengfeng. She thought about customizing the porcelain a few days later and decorating the room with a magnificent style.
When Qi Chengfeng heard this, his eyes became even brighter and he praised, “Very good!”
“Is that so?” Su Wanwan smiled. Suddenly, the child in her stomach kicked hard. Su Wanwan immediately covered her stomach, afraid that something was wrong. Qi Chengfeng immediately raised his hand to placate the child in her stomach and said, “Good boy, don’t move. Let your mother rest properly.”
After saying that, the child in his stomach actually stopped moving. Qi Chengfeng thought to himself, “Fortunately, you’re obedient. If you don’t obey, when you come out, I won’t need Liu Tiao’er to teach you a lesson!”
Su Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief and touched her abdomen. Suddenly, she heard the sound of tiles above her head. She frowned as if she saw the figure of a floating art and said, “Who is it?”
