34: Chapter 34 Made a Deal(1)_1

“”Two hundred taels?”

Shopkeeper Shen knit his brows and shook his head repeatedly: “Miss, aren’t you here to mock my little shop?

Two simple dishes priced at two hundred taels, it’s truly outrageous!

Brother Qi Yun, what do you think?”

Having said that, Shopkeeper Shen looked toward the county magistrate, seemingly trying to encourage him to speak up.

Luckily, the county magistrate didn’t heed Shen’s hint.

He kept on sitting steadily, his index finger lightly tapping on the table, scrutinizing Cai Wei.

The words of shopkeeper Shen almost made Cai Wei lose her temper.

She despised this cunning and dishonest merchant.

He knew full well that her dishes could earn him a fortune, yet he was reluctant to invest some silver.

He even presumed that he could take advantage of her with a mere twenty taels of silver, treating her like a naive thirteen-year-old child.

This is utterly ridiculous!

Unwilling to waste her breath on him, Cai Wei bowed politely, saying: “If shopkeeper Shen isn’t willing to pay the price, then I will just take my leave.

Please forgive any inconvenience caused.”

That said, she turned and began to leave.

“Hey, wait!”

Seeing Cai Wei about to leave, shopkeeper Shen, panicked, signaled the shop assistant.

The assistant quickly blocked the entrance, wearing a polite smile: “Why the rush, Miss?

You sincerely wish to sell, and our shopkeeper sincerely wants to buy.

Why not sit down, have some tea, and discuss further?

With an aim to make everyone happy, does your frequent attitude of wanting to walk away look like a sincere desire to do business?”

The shopkeeper also spoke in a courteous manner: “Yes, Miss, don’t just stand there, come sit and we can take our time discussing.”

Cai Wei stated: “Shopkeeper Shen, I’m sorry, but I’m in a hurry to find the next buyer, and I don’t have the time to sit and drink tea.

Whether my dishes are worth two hundred taels is something well known to the shopkeeper.

If you indeed believe they’re not worth it, it’s no harm, I will just go and find someone who is more knowledgeable, there’s no need for so much talk.”

“Hehe, this young lady indeed has quite a backbone!” The county magistrate laughed, looking at Cai Wei with approval.

“Your praise is kind, sir.”

Cai Wei took a quick look at Shopkeeper Shen, her voice was lukewarm: “I’m just speaking from the facts.”

Shopkeeper Shen saw that she was uncompromising and feared that she might go find another buyer, he was left with no choice but to say reluctantly: “Alright, one hundred taels, and not a penny more.”

Cai Wei remained firm: “Two hundred taels, and not a penny less.”

The shopkeeper turned red, he reproachfully huffed: “Miss, who does business this way?

There’s absolutely no room for bargaining.”

“Why not?” Cai Wei said lightly.

“You…”

Shopkeeper Shen was extremely annoyed!

“Hahaha…”

The county magistrate who had been observing from aside couldn’t help but laugh heartily, “Brother Shen, it seems that the young lady won’t budge!

I’m afraid you may have to pay up.”

Cai Wei calmly stated: “Shopkeeper Shen, don’t force yourself.

If you don’t wish to, I can always look for other buyers.”

“Bang!”

There was a heavy hit on the table.

Shopkeeper Shen was seething in rage and frustration, he said resentfully: “Fine, two hundred taels it is!”

The thought of Cai Wei selling these dishes to other restaurants, which in turn could overtake his coveted position of the top restaurant in town while making a fortune, pained him.

Well, he might as well buy it.

The dishes indeed seemed a bit expensive but those were certainly worth the price!

With the business deal completed, Cai Wei was delighted internally, but she didn’t show it on her face.

She calmly collected the silver bills, stood up to bid goodbye, and prepared to follow the shop assistant to the kitchen to teach him how to prepare the Crystal Jelly and the Phoenix Egg.
