C67 Sold

After his previous observations, Jin Miaowan was quite satisfied with the Yangzhou branch manager. The affairs of the Goldstone Trading Company in Yangzhou were under the supervision of the shopkeeper, and there was a wide range of business dealings between the different provinces.

The shopkeeper was quite familiar with these mansions. He could easily tell the location and characteristics of any of the mansions, including the environment and the surrounding buildings.

Overall, Jin Miaowan was very satisfied with the branch manager's service ability and attitude. Before long, the maid brought over the land deed to the inn that Jin Miaowan mentioned.

"Since Miss has come prepared, there is no need to elaborate any further on the real estate. If the land deed is true, you can name your price."

Jin Miaowan designated an inn at the end of Jing Yi Street to know about the matter of the sale and transfer rights to the Goldstone Trading Company. That inn was where the original owner had transferred the land contract to the Goldstone Trading Company not long ago to sell, and the Goldstone Trading Company had not announced this news to the public yet.

Since the other party had come prepared, he might as well turn the other party around and have the buyer bid. Not only would he get a rough idea of the other party's bottom line, he could also bargain on this basis.

This branch manager saw that Jin Miaowan was young and she herself was an old schemer at a delinquent mall, so why would she not know how to move a little girl? The shopkeeper stroked his moustache, looking like he was planning something.

"The shopkeeper's appearance, in Shen Kai's eyes, was like that of a cunning merchant. The owner of this branch does not recognize Jin Miaowan? " From the moment he entered, although the shopkeeper's attitude was not bad, he did not seem to be respectful to his mistress, and looking at him, he was completely doing business with Jin Miaowan. With Jin Miaowan's position, as long as she asked, the storekeeper of this branch would definitely offer it up with both hands.

There must be something fishy about it! Shen Kai thought, but since Jin Miaowan did not say anything, he could not say too much. As one of the rules of the Escort, one could not ask about the affairs of the employers. As Jin Miaowan's personal bodyguard, although Jin Miaowan treated Shen Kai as her good friend, they were still in an employment relationship. While protecting Jin Miaowan, he was not allowed to interfere in Jin Miaowan's private affairs.

Jin Miaowan picked up the land deed and casually glanced at the address on it. After confirming it was the inn at the end of the street, she handed the land deed to Uncle Lin behind her to verify it.

Jin Miaowan seemed to be considering the price. Suddenly, she stretched out her beautiful hand, fingers held together as she spoke with a voice as gentle as the spring wind, "Five hundred liang!" The gentle voice seemed to contain a hint of irresistibility, causing one to be unable to resist in rejecting it.

It had to be said that Jin Miaowan's voice was the most beautiful voice that Shen Kai had ever heard. The Dong Yixin that Shen Kai knew, and the Zhang Ning.

However, the owner of this branch house was not a hot-blooded, square youth like Shen Kai. After staying in the mall for so many years, he had experienced all sorts of enticements. Furthermore, Jin Miaowan's appearance was not too outstanding.

"Miss, these five hundred liang seems to be too little." The shopkeeper said with a troubled expression.

Jin Miaowan came from a business family, and because shesheas an only child, she learned to help her father manage Goldstone Trading Company's business from a young age. Naturally, she knew that the shopkeeper's troubled expression was an act. Since the shopkeeper had asked her to bid, he wanted to test her further to see if she was familiar with the price of the property in Yangzhou and the value of the property.

The five hundred liang of silver that Jin Miaowan mentioned was obviously not the real value of the real estate, but the real estate's value was around six hundred liang, and she purposely lowered the price.

"What price does the shopkeeper think the property of the land is worth?" Jin Miaowan immediately stated as she looked at the branch manager with a faint smile.

The shopkeeper was not stupid, Jin Miaowan had kicked the ball towards him, and since the other party had intentions and was clear on the price, then she would not beat around the bush.

The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Seven hundred liang." The price of the real estate was estimated to be around 650 taels of silver, and the owner of the land deed was also willing to pay this price. Since the owner of the branch was willing to pay 700 taels of silver, not only would he receive a commission of 65 taels, the extra 50 taels would also be sold for an extra half, which was 25 taels, which meant that Goldstone Trading Company would be able to earn a profit of 90 taels.

"Six hundred and seventy liang, this is my last price." Jin Miaowan stopped playing with the teacup in his hands, looking like he was about to leave.

A commission of 670 taels of silver and 65 taels of silver plus 10 taels of difference made a profit of 75 taels of silver. Although Jin Miaowan was a woman and was still so young, it seemed like the detours of the shopping mall didn't affect her at all. The shopkeeper calculated in his heart before heavily nodding his head to indicate that it was a deal.

"Uncle Lin, please take care of the rest of the formalities with the storekeeper." Jin Miaowan said, then stood up and left, Shen Kai followed Jin Miaowan out of Goldstone Trading Company.

After exiting the Goldstone Trading Company, Jin Miaowan stretched her back. Although the clothes that she wore at the end of winter were a lot thicker, it still could not block Jin Miaowan's beautiful body.

"Does it look good?" Jin Miaowan felt that Shen Kai was looking at her, and proudly straightened her proud figure.

After being discovered, Shen Kai did not feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he showed a playful expression and used his hand to cover Jin Miaowan's face as she nodded her head, sizing up Jin Miaowan's figure. "Un, it looks so much better this way."

"You! "Humph!" Jin Miaowan slapped Shen Kai's hand away, rolled her eyes, and snorted.

Shen Kai did not dodge, and allowing Jin Miaowan to hit her hand, it could be considered letting her vent her anger. Otherwise, with his skills, how could Jin Miaowan possibly touch him? " He pretended to be in pain and took a breath of cold air. Then, he touched the hand that was hit.

"Hmph, you deserve it!"

She knew that Shen Kai was joking and she meant him no harm, so she wasn't really angry.

"Where do you want to go now? Back to the inn? " Shen Kai asked.

"Aren't you curious why I bought the property?" Jin Miaowan did not answer Shen Kai's question.

Shen Kai followed behind him, "I am indeed curious, but as a person in our line of work, it is not good to ask too many questions."

"Are you planning to stay in Yangzhou for a long time?" Shen Kai could not help but ask, although they were in an employment relationship, the two of them were more of a friend.

"Didn't my father say? I want to stay in Yangzhou for two years! " Jin Miaowan said.

"Two years? Not three months? " Shen Kai asked doubtfully. Thinking about it carefully, at first, his father said three months, but when he accepted the Escort's mission, there was no date written on it, but it was clearly written "Until Back to Shanghai Jin Miaowan."

"Are you sure it's two years?" Shen Kai asked again.

"I've already bought the mansion. If I had returned earlier, I wouldn't have needed to go through so much trouble." Jin Miaowan blinked his innocent eyes.

Jin Miaowan did not seem like she was joking, "Am I being sold just like that?" Shen Kai cursed in his heart. No wonder his father had smiled so strangely before he left.

"Sigh …"

"What are you sighing about? You don't want to be my guard? " Jin Miaowan frowned and asked.

"That's not true, but …" Two years wasn't a long time, and protecting Jin Miaowan wasn't too burdensome, so she had more time to cultivate her martial arts. Furthermore, Jin Miaowan's temperament was also good, she was gentle and courteous, and the two of them got along very well. It was just that Shen Xing did not tell him the specific time of the guard and made him come here muddleheaded.

Thinking about that, Shen Kai could not help but scold his father that Shen Xing had tricked him.

In the Taixing Escort Office thousands of miles away, a middle-aged man sneezed for no reason. He rubbed his nose and muttered to himself, "I'm old, but my ability to resist the cold has regressed?"
