Chapter 134 The Account, Pick Up the Account
Lin Xi remained unmoved; his Meng Li hadn't said a word yet.
What kind of nonsense is he?
Although the person in front of me is a big shot, it's just for eye candy; admiring him from afar is enough.
But relying on "good looks" to get people to buy his services is absolutely impossible.
"Boss?" Tang Guangjun called out softly when he saw that Lin Xi was hesitant to take over.
"Don't shout, I don't make decisions in my own home." Lin Xi rolled her eyes at him, turned around and continued making her dumplings, not giving him another glance.
Tang Guangjun's smile immediately cracked.
No one in charge? Does that mean the woman is in charge?
Tang Guangjun inwardly grumbled, but on his face he still tried to maintain that already strained smile, and secretly winked at Wen Chou.
Miscalculation! This family is upside down; the woman is in charge!
Wen Chou frowned and remained silent.
To be honest, he's being far too kind, thinking that a simple dose of poison could solve the problem.
With a dose of poison, how could these two possibly resist?
If you refuse to comply, you'll die from the poison; once you're dead, you're dead!
Neither of the two county towns can gain an advantage.
Better to be shattered jade than to survive as a broken tile!
Wen Chou was furious. He flicked his sleeves, looked up at the sky and down at the ground, but just didn't want to look at his "good-for-nothing" county magistrate.
Dou Dou is truly hopeless; I really don't want to help him.
At this moment, Gao Mengli walked over with a half-smile.
He straightened his sleeves and said sarcastically, "Oh, Lord Tang wants 20 reams of paper, how dare we refuse to sell it to you!"
However, if you want to buy it, you have to go to my brother-in-law Zhang Dongcai's general store!
"As for the price, I'll give you a discount; I'll only charge you 180 coins per dollar!"
Tang Guangjun's eyes widened, and he took two steps back.
I was really scared.
Tang Guangjun's voice cracked with shock, "180 coins? What kind of discount is that?"
Besides, isn't it 70 coins a ream? Xuan paper is only 200 coins a ream, are you trying to rob me?
It's fine as long as you don't mention robbery. As soon as you mention robbery, Gao Mengli gets angry. She puts her hands on her hips, raises her head, and says, "I'll sell it to you for 180 coins. Take it or leave it. Don't even think about finding someone else to buy it from."
My family uses two sources for making rough paper.
One is Lord Dou, and the other is my son. As for the others, forget about buying them!
After all, the production of tissues has not yet caught up, so we have to prioritize supplying Da Niu and Dou Weiyi.
Twenty cuts, that's something we can manage to scrape together.
However, the quantity was only barely enough.
For this kind of person, we should extract money from him to make up for their "frightened" hearts; we can't let him get away with it.
Tang Guangjun pointed at the "shrew" Gao Mengli, "You, you...aren't you going to do anything about it?"
He pointed at Gao Mengli and kept saying "you" for a long time but couldn't say anything more. After all, it wasn't his jurisdiction, and he had no say in other people's price gouging.
If we sue Dou Weiyi, she might just raise the price even higher.
So he pointed at Lin Xi, hoping he would control his "profiteer shrew".
To his surprise, Lin Xi grinned at him and said, "Whatever my wife says goes! You can buy it or not, it's up to you!"
Tang Guangjun almost fainted from anger when he saw Lin Xi's appearance.
However, given that the construction of his public toilet has already begun, there's no turning back now.
If he turned back now, the arrow would just come right back and pierce his heart...
He angrily flicked his sleeves and took two steps with his head held high.
But then he turned back, looking at Gao Mengli resentfully, "How do I get to the general store?"
Gao Mengli grinned and waved her hand, "Qian Yan'er, lead the way!"
"Okay!" Qian Yan'er ran out happily.
Standing in front of Tang Guangjun, he tilted his head back, grinned, and said, "Lord Tang, this way please!"
Tang Guangjun glared at Gao Mengli, then angrily flung his sleeves again and stormed off!
After Jiang Shuzhi could no longer see Tang Guangjun, she clapped her hands excitedly, "Oh my, eldest daughter! How were you so sure he would buy it? That's a brilliant move!"
Next time I see someone dressed elegantly, I'll try raising the price too! This deal made me quite a profit!
Jiang Shuzhi was counting profits on her fingers, her mouth practically agape with a grin!
Gao Mengli: ……
Damn it, is there some misunderstanding?
This isn't meant to be used as a teaching material or to portray her as a profiteer...
But Jiang Shuzhi didn't care about that. She was shocked by her eldest son's move just now, as if he had opened the door to a "shady merchant"!
Sure enough, good products sell well; she still has a lot to learn about price negotiation!
Seeing her excitedly counting on her fingers beside her, Gao Mengli exchanged a helpless glance with Lin Xi.
Never mind, let her be.
"Do I deserve to have a jianbing guozi?"
Just then, a soft, delicate voice caught their attention.
Lin Xi and Gao Mengli turned their heads and saw a man and a woman standing in front of the stall.
Nan Sheng pulled Nan Chang'an along, pointing arrogantly at the jianbing guozi in front of them.
Nan Chang'an looked unwilling to be dragged along by her, "Are you sick?"
Nan Sheng pouted, looking aggrieved, "Don't I deserve a jianbing guozi?"
Nan Chang'an rolled his eyes and quickly called out to Gao Mengli, "Boss, one jianbing guozi, extra spicy, quick!"
He wanted nothing more than to shut his sister up; no wonder his brother-in-law couldn't stand it and ran away.
"Oh, oh." Gao Mengli quickly and skillfully made a jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe), wrapped it in a banana leaf, and handed it to the two of them.
But Nan Sheng refused, crossing her arms and muttering, "Don't I deserve a jianbing guozi to be fed?"
Nan Chang'an quickly took the half-eaten jianbing guozi from Gao Mengli's hand and held it to her mouth, "Here you go, eat it quickly."
Nan Sheng turned her head away haughtily, "Hmph, I'm not eating anymore. You didn't feed me to my heart's content."
Nan Sheng's actions left Gao Mengli and Lin Xi completely stunned.
Nan Chang'an was extremely embarrassed. Seeing the boss and his wife looking at him, he gave an awkward laugh, "Is she sick?! Hahaha..."
The smile turned into a bitter smile.
He smacked his lips and turned to look at Nan Sheng.
Suddenly, a whole jianbing guozi was stuffed into her mouth.
While cursing in his local dialect, he said, "Take the account, pick up the account."
"If I don't see your accounts today, I'll kill myself! Give me those accounts!"
After saying that, Nan Chang'an glanced at the jianbing guozi in his hand and paused for a moment.
He immediately stuffed them all into Nan Sheng's mouth, "Day after day, it's really something."
Come here, it's all yours!
You're all my buddies, all my old bastards. You, you, you're all mine, I'll kill you for it!
Nan Sheng covered her mouth with her hand and gave Nan Chang'an a resentful look. "Hmph, it's not that I'm being dramatic."
Other people's younger brothers feed their older sisters like this, so you should do the same.
"Hmph, you don't understand me at all."
Nan Chang'an's lips twitched, and he smiled awkwardly at Lin Xi and Gao Mengli again, pointing to his head.
He was implying that the person next to him was mentally ill and should be ignored.
Then he bought some fried fish that he wanted to eat, and when he saw his sister staring at him, he stuffed one into Nan Sheng's mouth.
Nan Sheng turned her head away haughtily, "I don't eat it, it's not my taste."
Nan Chang'an clenched his fists and finally exploded, slamming the small fried fish hard on the ground and yelling at Nan Sheng, "Eat what? Get lost!"
Just then, Zhang Biao, who had come over for lunch, bumped into an angry Nan Chang'an.
Zhang Biao frowned and quickly steadied him, his tone displeased, "Damn it, are your eyes in the back of your head and can't you see where you're going?"
Nan Chang'an was initially somewhat panicked, but upon hearing the familiar voice, he felt as if he had been saved.
The two locked eyes in mid-air.
A pleasant surprise.
A shock!
