C100

The old lady's face changed drastically. It took her a while to regain her senses. She was about to ask something when she heard the third wife calling out to her first.

"What?" Four hundred thousand silver. What exactly did she buy?

Third Wife's eyes were wide open, her face filled with pain, as if Bai Li?er was spending her money.

The others also had incredulous looks on their faces.

Everyone was curious as to what Bai Li had bought for him to use so much silver.

Looking at the excited third wife, the accountant nervously shook his head, "No, no."

Hearing the word "not", everyone felt relieved.

The old lady relaxed, her face turning slightly pale. She almost collapsed onto the rosewood chair.

Third Madame heaved a sigh of relief, waved his handkerchief and patted his chest, "You must be wrong, you scared me to death."

"Seriously, you can even say that wrong. It's just a waste of time to scare people." The Madam Zhao waved his handkerchief and pretended to speak.

Seeing that everyone had misunderstood, the accountant nervously closed his eyes and loudly said, "It's four hundred thousand gold."

There was silence again, an extraordinary silence, an odd silence.

Hearing the word "gold", the old lady's hand that was holding the buddhist beads shook and her face turned pale.

Third Madame regained his senses, his eyes opened wide as if he was looking at a fool.

"Have you gone mad? Four hundred thousand gold, did she buy a city?"

Third Madame was not wrong this time, those remote small cities might not even be worth four hundred thousand gold.

Madam Zhao stood up immediately and glared at the accountant.

"Exactly, what can she buy that costs four hundred thousand gold? Even if she used four hundred thousand gold, why would she come to the public and take the money?"

Madam Zhao clenched his fists excitedly, his eyes full of indignation.

The silver from the General's Estate would always belong to her son, so what right did she have to give it to that fool Bai Li?er?

After Second Madam Ye recovered from her daze, the corner of her lips slightly hooked up.

400,000 gold, this was equivalent to half of the old lady's life! This time, the young miss had done something earth-shattering!

Looking at the old lady's pale face, Second Madam suddenly had the urge to laugh out loud.

Bai Ruoyu squinted her eyes. Four hundred thousand gold, this Bai Li?er, what did she want to do.

Looking at the excited Third Madame and Madam Zhao, the accountant awkwardly spread his hands and said, "First Miss used the official seal."

It was because Eldest Miss used the official seal and had a large number of people that he was in a dilemma.

Upon hearing the two words "official seal", Third Madame and Madam Zhao instantly stopped eating.

According to the rules of the General's Estate, the seal of the General's Estate s could mobilize all of the assets of the General's Estate s. So, forget about the four hundred thousand gold, even if Bai Li emptied the treasury, no one would be able to stop him.

"Evil creature!"

The old lady could no longer hold it in and slammed the table. The Buddhist Jade Bead in her hand instantly shattered into powder.

For a moment, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of buddhist beads falling to the ground.

Everyone was startled by the old lady's sudden action and stood silently on the spot, not daring to move.

The accountant was so scared that both his legs went limp and he almost kneeled down.

"Show me that manservant's proof."

His sharp eyes looked straight at the accountant. The accountant trembled and immediately bowed, "Yes."

With trembling hands, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over.

Chun Xi stepped forward to take the paper, but Third Madame snatched it away first.

Third Madame looked at the official seal on the paper and immediately widened his eyes in anger, "It really is our General's Estate's official seal. Old lady, please take a look."

Third Madame handed the documents over to the old lady anxiously.

The old lady took the paper and stared at the official seal with a pair of sinister eyes.

Bai Li?er...

The old lady at this moment wanted nothing more than to eat Bai Li's flesh. After drinking his blood, she would be able to dispel the hatred in her heart.

"What do we do now? Four hundred thousand taels of gold! It's not four hundred taels of gold, it's not four thousand taels of gold, nor is it forty thousand taels of gold ?"

When the third wife saw the four hundred thousand taels of gold on the paper, she couldn't help crying.

If he gave out this four hundred thousand taels of gold, wouldn't it be equivalent to digging out her heart and meat?

Madam Zhao also sullenly said, "That's right, this is four hundred thousand gold, you just went for broke."

He could still hear the sound of water splashing. If he were to give away the gold, he wouldn't even be able to hear the sound of water splashing.

"Right, that fool used to have a mental illness, could it be that he was tricked by someone?" Thinking about something, Madam Zhao suddenly opened his eyes wide.

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up.

Even if she was sick, that was in the past. The current Bai Li?er was smarter than any of them.

Third Madame wiped the corner of his eyes, waving the handkerchief, he said, "That's right, wasn't she severely injured before? How can you go out and buy things now? Don't tell me that he took our General's Estate's official seal to cheat him of his money? "

This silver would have already belonged to the third house sooner or later, so Bai Li?er definitely would not take it for himself.

The old lady lowered her eyes in thought for a moment before raising her hand. "Go and fetch that manservant over."

"Yes."

The accountant immediately bowed and left. Soon, he came in with the attendant from the Treasure Pavilion.

"Greetings, madams. Greetings, madams."

As soon as the attendant entered the room, he bowed to everyone in a formal manner.

No one said anything. Everyone's eyes were fixated on the attendant standing in the middle, as if they could tell anything just by looking at his face.

Sensing that the atmosphere was a little strange, the manservant slightly frowned, but he maintained his composure and continued to stand there obediently.

After observing for a long time, the old lady finally spoke coldly.

"You're an attendant of the Treasure Pavilion."

"Yes."

The attendant bowed slightly and replied respectfully.

The old lady narrowed her eyes. "Let me ask you, has our young mistress gone to your shop to buy something?"

"Yes." The attendant nodded.

"How many things did you buy?" the old lady asked again.

"Three." The attendant answered truthfully.

"Which three?"

"A mask, a pair of golden needles, and a dagger." The attendant replied respectfully.

"How dare you!"

The old lady's face turned cold, she slapped the table and shouted, "Where did this shameless person come from, how dare he come to our General's Estate to swindle money! Men, seize him!"

As soon as the old lady gave the order, servants rushed in and set up the manservant.

The servant turned his back but did not struggle. He only looked coldly at the old lady and said, "Does the madame have any evidence for my scam?"

The old lady frowned and remained silent.

The attendant scoffed, "You guys don't have any evidence, yet you dare to take someone for free. What, do you want to lynch him?"

Bai Ruoyu suddenly stood up and walked in front of the servant.

"Isn't what you just said evidence? A mask, a set of golden needles, and a dagger would cost four hundred thousand gold.

Looking at the arrogant Bai Ruoyu who was like a peacock, the servant smirked.

"This young lady is wrong. Four hundred thousand gold taels is only the price of needles and daggers. The other mask is twenty thousand silver taels."

The attendant kindly reminded everyone that he wanted more than four hundred thousand taels of gold. Twenty thousand taels of silver was something he couldn't afford to lose because of the heart of that Heavenly Immortal lady.

He had heard that the Miss Bai was not favoured by the General's Estate in the past, but now it seemed that the rumors were true. As long as the young miss held a tiny bit of status in the old mistress' heart, he would not be tied up now.

When the old lady heard this, she immediately looked down at the paper in her hands. Seeing that there was indeed another twenty thousand silver taels on it, her eyes immediately reddened with anger.

Third Madame was so angry that he immediately jumped up, "A mask costs 20,000 taels of silver, a set of golden needles and a dagger costs 400,000 taels of gold, you still dare to say that this is not a mafia store?"

That's right, do you think that it's so easy to cheat our General's Estate's silver when you see how easily Bai Li?er can be bullied, selling a pile of scrap metal to her at a high price, and then coming to our General's Estate to swindle gold?

Madam Zhao also stared at the servant angrily as he cursed.

Hearing Madam Zhao call Bai Li?er a fool, the servant was immediately unhappy.

He fiercely pushed aside the two servants holding onto him, looked at Third Madame and Madam Zhao with disdain, and said: "Is it that Miss Bai is retarded, or have you two not seen the world before?"

A group of ignorant earth leopards actually said that a Heavenly Immortal lady like the Miss Bai was a fool, in his opinion, they were the fools.

"You ?"

Seeing the servant's contemptuous gaze, Third Madame was instantly enraged. He pointed at the servant and was about to curse.

The servant ignored the Third Madame and directly turned to the old lady to explain, "A Spirit Grade Mask costs twenty thousand taels of silver, while the gold needle is a Mastered Artifact and the dagger is a Holy Weapons. If these two things were placed in the auction house, forget about four hundred thousand gold, even eight hundred thousand gold might not be enough to buy them."

Bai Ruoyu's eyes flashed. She actually bought treasures and Holy Weapons?

Everyone else's faces lit up in realization. No wonder they spent so much money to buy such a good item.

Seeing that no one said anything, the attendant raised his eyes proudly and said, "What our Treasure Pavilion sells are treasures, we have never once said something like scrap metal. If your General's Estate is unable to afford the money, you can just say so. Perhaps I can even give you a discount, but if you all want to slander me, our Treasure Pavilion will not be easily bullied. "

The attendant straightened his back as he spoke, a solemn expression on his face.

He wasn't afraid of them. If they wanted to slander him, it would depend on whether their master would agree or not.

The attendant's words were like a resounding slap to everyone's face.

Especially the old lady; her old face had turned the color of pig liver.

The old lady usually wanted face the most, but at this moment, she was being scolded by an attendant in front of her that she couldn't afford the money. It was really a slap to her face.

"Take him to get the silver."

The old lady waved her hands expressionlessly.

"Yes." "Yes sir!" The accountant immediately agreed and left with the manservant.

After the servant left, Third Madame hurriedly moved in front of the old lady. "The old lady has really given him silver."

"Yeah, that's four hundred thousand gold." Madam Zhao also anxiously walked over.

Upon hearing "four hundred thousand gold", the old lady's face turned pale and her heart ached.

"You two shut up and get out of here."

The Old Granny clutched her chest, her eyes full of killing intent staring straight at Third Madame and Madam Zhao.
