Chapter 380
After Bai Jinli and Shen Guan entered the shop, someone came up to greet them immediately.

"Boss, are you going to sell this shop?" Bai Jinli asked him.

"Exactly! Miss, do you want to buy it?"

"Let's take a look first. Shopkeeper, your shop is in a good location, why do you suddenly want to sell it? What's the price?" Bai Jinli asked him.

"That's natural! The people who come to walk on this street are either rich or expensive, and the location of the street is relatively good. Naturally, I don't want to sell it out. However, something happened at home. I really have no choice but to bear the pain and give up."

"As for the price, 50 taels of silver."

"50 taels? The shopkeeper really knows how to do business. No matter how good the business on this street is, it's not worth the price, right?" Shen Guan said with a chuckle.

The shopkeeper obviously used them as fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

"Why isn't it worth it? Look at the size of my shop, the decoration and location of my shop. 50 taels is already a loss price." The shopkeeper continued to fool around.

"Shopkeeper, to be honest, this street is not a particularly famous place in the capital, and the reason why everyone is willing to come here is because of the popularity of that jewelry store.

Your shop is not very popular at all, and the income for a year is not three to five thousand silver. I really don't know where you got the confidence to ask for 50 taels? " Shen Guan continued to speak.

"Girl, how can you say that!" When the shopkeeper heard Shen Guan say this, an alarm bell sounded in his heart.

Originally, he thought that the two girls who came were those noble girls in the capital who didn't know the price of oil and salt, so he just talked casually.

Unexpectedly, that cold-looking woman who looked at otherworldly things actually broke the predicament and market conditions of their shop as soon as she opened her mouth, which really made him a little anxious.

"Don't tell the shopkeeper to deceive us just because we are women. Since we came in, we naturally intend to visit the shop sincerely. The shopkeeper might as well give us a low price."

"That's 40." The shopkeeper said.

"Jinli, let's go, I don't think this shop is very good." Shen Guan said.

"Well, well, I also think this shop is not very good."

Seeing the two people turn around to leave, and thinking about the situation of their shop, the shopkeeper became a little anxious, and quickly called to stop them.

"Don't worry, girl, let's discuss it again! 30 taels."

The two continued to walk outside.

"20 taels, sell out the whole shop, it really can't be lowered." The shopkeeper's face looked very ugly, almost crying.

"Maximum 5 taels, otherwise there will be no discussion." Shen Guan gave a valuation in her mind.

"5 taels? Auntie, you want my life!" The shopkeeper pretended to cry.

"You can earn up to 5000 taels of silver a year, and 5 taels of silver is enough for you to stay for ten years. Besides, your shop has no business at all, and you may not even earn one or two thousand taels a year, even if you are given 5 taels of silver. , you are also making money."

"It's fine if you don't want to. There is more than one store in your family on this street. We just go to other stores."

"All right, all right, 5 taels is 5 taels, I'll sell it!" The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said.

Shen Guan glanced at Bai Jinli and asked her if she was satisfied.

Bai Jinli didn't know the housing prices in the capital yet, but when she thought about the income from their snack shop in Qincheng, she immediately felt that the 5 taels was a good deal, so she nodded silently.

"it is good."

Bai Jinli was about to talk to the shopkeeper about the final matters when he heard a domineering voice from beside his ear.

"Shopkeeper, I'll give you 7 taels, and this shop belongs to me!"

Bai Jinli, Shen Guan and the shopkeeper could not help but follow the voice and look towards the door of the shop, and saw four women standing at the door of the shop at this moment.

The two obedient and well-behaved ones in the back who bowed their heads should be the two maidservants.

The woman who spoke just now was wearing a bright peach red skirt, with a good figure, beautiful features, and a leather whip pinned to her waist, but at the moment she looked a little domineering and arrogant.

Standing beside her was a woman in white with a gentle appearance and a slightly dusty temperament.

That woman gave people a very demure and peaceful feeling, like a blooming white lotus, with a bit of purity and a bit of aloofness.

"This..." The shopkeeper suddenly hesitated.

"Miss Luo Er, this shop is the first one our young lady has set her eyes on, and she has already negotiated with her. Wouldn't it be nice for you to come and snatch it up at this time?" Lan Yi said angrily.

"Snatch? Miss Shen, your girl's words are so interesting. You just negotiated the price with the shopkeeper, and you haven't continued the transaction, which means that this shop doesn't belong to you yet."

"Since it doesn't belong to you, then naturally it goes to the one with the highest price. I'm willing to pay 7 taels of silver to buy it. Why is it not good?" The woman called the second girl Luo stared at Shen Guan and said.

She is the second lady of the General's Mansion, and she is good friends with Li Qingrou, the second lady of the Zuoxiang Mansion beside her.

Before Shen Guan came back, Li Qingrou was a talented woman praised by everyone in the capital, and she was in the limelight.

She is the second lady of the General's Mansion, because she has learned some skills from her grandfather since she was a child, she has an upright personality, and likes to wear red clothes, she is also a model that those noble sons in the capital often praise.

They are both civil and military, and they are the ones that noble girls in the capital are willing to make friends with.

Ever since Shen Guan, a former sick child, suddenly returned to Beijing, she had caused various incidents in their right minister's residence, which aroused a lot of discussion.

That's all, they don't care at all.

But later, Shen Guan opened a shop to make a lot of money, and a series of actions such as helping disaster victims immediately aroused many people's discussions.

For a while, they suppressed their limelight. They were used to being superior, and after being suppressed for a while, they naturally felt uncomfortable.

It's just that Li Qingrou has a good temper, so forget everything to persuade her, and don't care about these false names.

But she is not reconciled.

Everyone is a woman, why can Shen Guan do business and make a lot of money, but she can't?

She believes that as long as she has money, she can also do business, and earn more than Shen Guan, and even better than Shen Guan.

So Luo Ningmin begged her mother and eldest sister for a long time, finally got a sum of money, and planned to find a shop and try to do business.

Her mother told her eldest sister that as long as her shop can really make money, she will be given more subsidies so that she can continue to develop.

As soon as Luo Ningmin got the money, she happily found her good friend Li Qingrou and asked her to accompany her to see the shop.

Li Qingrou was originally reading at home and didn't want to come out.But for her sake, he followed her.

She felt very sorry, so she planned to take Li Qingrou to that jewelry store to buy a pearl hairpin for her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached the door of the jewelry store, Li Qingrou asked her if the person she saw just now was Shen Guan.

They came over after Shen Guan, and stood at the door and heard the conversation between Shen Guan and the shopkeeper.

Originally, she wanted to rush in and bid with Shen Guan, but Li Qingrou stopped her and asked her to wait.

It turns out that Qing Rou is smarter and more foresight than her.

If she had rushed in just now, she would have earned a lot of money if she bought it in this shop.

But now that Shen Guan and the shopkeeper have talked about the price at 5 taels, of course she can come out.

What she gave was 7 taels of silver, which was 2 taels more than Shen Guan, so she didn't believe that the shopkeeper was not tempted.

"You clearly came here to grab the credit after watching my sister negotiate the price. How could you be like this?" Lan Yi said.

"The shopkeeper, 7 taels, is it for sale?" Luo Ningmin didn't bother to look at the blue clothes, but just looked at the shopkeeper and asked him.

"This... girl, I'm sorry, this lady paid 7 taels of silver, me, me!"

The shopkeeper looked at Shen Guan and Bai Jinli with a trace of apology in his expression.

"The one with the highest price gets it? 8 taels." Bai Jinli looked at the undercurrent of the scene and said.

"Who are you? Why hasn't this girl seen you before?" Luo Ningmin glanced at Bai Jinli and asked.

Not only Luo Ningmin, but even Li Qingrou's eyes fell on Bai Jinli calmly.

"Oh, I'm a newcomer to Beijing, so it's normal that you don't know each other. It's just buying a shop, you don't need to know each other, the one with the highest price gets it." Bai Jinli glanced at the two of them lightly.

"You! 9 taels!" Luo Ningmin glared at Bai Jinli and snorted coldly.

"10 taels." Bai Jinli said.

"I'll offer 15 taels!" Luo Ningmin was obviously fighting with Bai Jinli.

It's too much for an unknown little girl from another place to dare to challenge her!
"15 taels and 5000 taels." Bai Jinli said.

"16 taels!"

"16 taels."

"Min'er, forget it, she and Shen Guan are together, don't forget, Shen Guan has a lot of shops in his hands and is not short of money, let's..."

Li Qingrou inadvertently tugged at the corner of Luo Ningmin's clothes, and spoke in a low voice.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Luo Ningmin spoke even more angrily.

"What are you afraid of! I have money! I will pay 20 taels!"

"Oh, excuse me, excuse me. Shen Guan, I think this shop is too expensive and not worth the price. I don't want it anymore. Let's change it."

Bai Jinli looked at Luo Ningmin helplessly, and then spoke to Shen Guan.

"Okay. This shop is really not worth the price. If you like it, I can really give you two shops for free." Shen Guan said seriously.

"No, I'm just looking at it casually, and I don't have to buy it."

"Miss Luo Er, I won't compete with you for this shop anymore, I don't have so much money to squander at will." Bai Jinli said.

"Hmph! What arguing with this girl if you don't have money! You really have no eyesight!" Luo Ningmin snorted coldly, and took out two large-value bank notes with a bit of complacency in her eyes and handed them over.

"Girl, here is the deed of the store, here it is." The shopkeeper took the bank note and looked at it, then handed over the deed from his sleeve.

"Well, okay, this girl will be the owner of this shop from now on."

"Congratulations. Shen Guan, let's go." Bai Jinli smiled and glanced at Luo Ningmin, then pulled Shen Guan to leave.

"Min'er, we were fooled." At this moment, Li Qingrou who was beside Luo Ningmin suddenly spoke.
