Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 787: Chapter 790: I Advise You Not to Buy It?”Let’s talk about it, seven towns, a total of seven Dongfeng Restaurants, what’s the total price?” Master Zhao became somewhat interested and began to inquire about the price.

Upon hearing this, a hint of smugness crossed Li Fuyou’s eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly upwards, ”Master Zhao, Dongfeng Restaurant is currently in trouble, the price is very appealing, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.”

”How much?”

Li Fuyou stretched out his hand and gestured the price.

Master Zhao had a good idea of the worth of Dongfeng Restaurant and, upon seeing the gesture Li Fuyou made, it was indeed much lower than the actual value. However, times had changed and Dongfeng Restaurant was in its hour of need, so its price had naturally plummeted. He still could press for a lower price, so he put on a not-so-satisfied expression.

His brows were deeply furrowed, and his complexion wasn’t too pleasant either, ”Young Master Li, you don’t seem to have offered your utmost sincerity.”

Li Fuyou felt displeased at this; this Master Zhao really was cunning and greedy, still trying to squeeze him at a time like this.

Even if the Dongfeng Restaurant had fallen on hard times, its location and expanse were still premier, among the best. If it wasn’t for the desire to sell quickly, he would not have lowered the price so much.

”Master Zhao, you’re also an old hand in the marketplace, you understand pricing better than I do, I didn’t ask for too high a price.”

Even knowing the price was reasonable, no merchant was without guile—everyone wanted to buy at the lowest possible price. So, Master Zhao shook his head and stretched out his hand, gesturing a counter-offer.

Seeing Master Zhao’s gesture, Li Fuyou almost spat blood in anger, but he held back for the sake of selling Dongfeng Restaurant quickly.

If he didn’t sell it now, once the government office seized it, he wouldn’t get a single copper coin.

Thus, he nodded, ”Master Zhao, then let us make the transaction today, cash against the land deed, which I have brought with me.”

Master Zhao was in a good mood, stood up, ”Then let’s go, I will go back and get the silver notes now.”

”Good.”

Just as the two were about to leave, a voice rang out, ”Master Zhao, are you buying his Dongfeng Restaurant?”

Upon hearing the voice, Li Fuyou’s brows knotted tightly, his gaze ice-cold. Why run into Zhouji Pawnshop’s eldest son at a time like this, ”Young Master Zhou, please step aside, we have business to attend to.”

Young Master Zhou didn’t pay any attention to Li Fuyou, but instead continued speaking to Master Zhao, ”Master Zhao, I advise you not to buy.”

”Why is that?” Being stopped, Master Zhao knew there was something more to this.

”Master Zhao, don’t you know? Dongfeng Restaurant has ended up like this today all because it offended the eldest young master of the Chu Family, you know about the Chu Family, right? They’re one of the wealthiest merchants in the whole dynasty, do you still dare to buy Dongfeng Restaurant? Wouldn’t that mean you want to oppose the Chu Family? Do you think your small Silver Pavilion can compete with them?”

Hearing this, Master Zhao’s face turned quite ugly, and he promptly said, ”Young Master Li, let’s forget our previous discussion.”

”Eh, Master Zhao, let’s talk it over again, you can’t just listen to his nonsense.”

But Li Fuyou’s words didn’t recall Master Zhao, and he left the tea house just like that.

Li Fuyou was biting his teeth in anger, ”Young Master Zhou, I, Li Fuyou, will remember today’s grudge.”

Young Master Zhou sat down with a smile, continuing to listen to the tune.

News of what had just happened spread throughout the tea house. Because the eldest young master of the Chu Family was involved, even fewer were willing to buy Dongfeng Restaurant now.

Li Fuyou could only leave in a huff.
