Chapter 36 Transformation
That's... also true.

The second steward sighed inwardly, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

The second girl was right. The big shopkeeper just said that the next batch would be available, but he hadn't promised to supply them yet. He just let out a little bit of meaning, and he was overjoyed.

I didn't expect that I was quite old, and I was not as calm as the second girl.

Although he restrained his smile, the second steward still couldn't help but feel hot in his heart.As long as he thinks that this business can be done in the future, it means that there will be a steady stream of money, and the mansion will no longer be as tight as it is now, so he can't help being happy.

Although he wanted to be calm, he couldn't help but look at the door of the elegant room frequently.

Time passed bit by bit amidst the anxiety of the second manager.

When he looked towards the door again, he saw the big shopkeeper walking unhurriedly in the distance, the second steward resisted and stood up from the armchair, and raised his foot to meet the door.

Xiao Jinyue glanced at him lightly, "Uncle Hai, this tea is not bad, try it."

The second steward paused, and came back to his senses, knowing that he was too anxious.

The raised foot was put down in an instant, took a deep breath, turned around and sat back in the armchair, and reached out to pick up the teacup, "The second girl said that this tea is good, and the small one must be tasted carefully."

Xiao Jinyue saw that he had regained his composure and didn't say anything. He smiled and picked up the teacup.

When negotiating business with people, it is most taboo to show your eagerness to the other party, or you will be led by the nose.

Xiao Jinyue glanced at the shopkeeper who was striding in, seeing his cold face, she couldn't help frowning slightly.

After entering the private room and taking a seat again, the big shopkeeper swept away the gentleness before, and said coldly, "Miss Xiao, we Jinyuanzheng can't supply you with goods, please go back."

Hearing this, the second steward felt anxious, "Boss, didn't you say before..."

The shopkeeper coldly glanced at him, and interrupted the second steward with a wave of his hand, "I never said anything before."

"you……"

Xiao Jinyue glanced at the second steward.

Seeing the second girl's calm face, the anger in the second steward's heart was finally suppressed.

Although he didn't know why Jin Yuanzheng's big shopkeeper changed his attitude, Xiao Jinyue thought about it, and still tried to speak.

"Boss, but the next batch of goods has also been ordered? The next batch is not available, so what about the next batch?"

The shopkeeper shook his head, and said impatiently, "There will be no more batches. Our Jin Yuanzheng's cane sugar this year has all been booked by other merchants."

"So, the shopkeeper is unwilling to accommodate?"

"There is no stock, sorry I can't accommodate you."

Xiao Jinyue took a deep look at the shopkeeper and stood up, "In that case, I will take my leave."

The big shopkeeper casually served tea to see off the guests, "Go slowly, I won't send you off."

After leaving the Jinyuanzheng shop, Fenix, who followed Xiao Jinyue, couldn't help but said angrily, "Girl, this big shopkeeper of Jinyuanzheng is too dishonest."

The second manager also looked disappointed. He didn't expect that two companies in a row failed to negotiate.

If there is no supply of goods, how can this business continue.

Seeing that Miss Xiao led the people away, the shopkeeper sighed, put down the teacup in his hand, got up and walked towards the private room again.

When he reached the door, he reached out and knocked on the door.

The one who came to open the door was the maid in Tsing Yi who almost bumped into Xiao Jinyue before.

In the private room, sitting at the top is a girl in an autumn-colored dress.

Seeing the big shopkeeper who came in, he raised his chin slightly and asked, "How, is he gone?"

The big shopkeeper bowed to her and said, "Back to the eldest girl, that girl Xiao has already taken her away after hearing that our shop is unwilling to supply her."

"Okay, you can step back." Qiuxiangse waved her hand nonchalantly.

"Yes."

The shopkeeper bowed and retreated, closing the door gently.

Seeing that the shopkeeper retreated, the girl sitting at the bottom with a pink gauze dress stood up with a smile on her face, and gave a deep blessing to the girl at the top, "Thank you, Miss Zou."

She saluted, but the other party acted as if she couldn't see him, and didn't answer, only stretched out her slender hand to hold the teacup.

The smile on the face of the girl in the pink veil froze, and a trace of unhappiness flashed in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.

Standing up as if nothing had happened, he pushed the jewelry box at hand toward him, and said with a smile, "Miss Zou, I wear this silk gold headband that doesn't suit my complexion, but it suits your snowy skin best. She must look a hundred times better than me."

That Miss Zou put down the teacup in her hand and asked with a smile, "This is a newly bought headgear, you are willing to part with it."

The girl in the pink gauze dress vomited blood in her heart, took a deep breath, raised her smiling face and said, "This hair doesn't suit my complexion. Rather than being ridiculed for wearing it, it's better to follow the owner who suits it best. It's not in vain. It was carefully crafted."

"Forget it, since you have said so, I will reluctantly accept it."

The girl in the pink gauze dress twisted her face for a moment when she heard this. Although she felt like vomiting blood in her heart, she still had to laugh and joke, "I must be happy to be with you as the master, otherwise I would take it back and put it at the bottom of the box. If it can speak, it will definitely blame me for dusting its pearl."

"I'm not familiar with it in the past, but I didn't know that Miss He's words are so interesting."

The two of you came and I complimented each other a lot, and the girl He in the pink gauze skirt bid farewell to each other and left with her maid.

In the private room, the servant girl saw that the other party had finally left, so she brought a new cup of tea, "Girl, this look is really good. Although that Miss He's obsequious appearance is annoying, she is still generous. "

"I don't know what kind of feud she has with that Miss Xiao, but she is willing to pay 800 taels worth of sucrose in order to prevent Miss Xiao from getting the cane sugar."

That Miss Zou sneered, "What generosity, she's just a merchant woman. If she wanted to use me without paying a price, how could I agree to her and let the chief steward refuse to supply that Miss Xiao?"

"As for the festival with Miss Xiao, maybe it's the competition between their two shops. Whatever they do, it has nothing to do with us anyway."

"But... girl, if the second master finds out about your meddling in the firm, will he blame you?"

Ms. Zou waved her hand indifferently, "Even if the second uncle knows, it's just that I don't want the shopkeeper to sell the cane sugar to that Miss Xiao, and it's not that I don't want to sell it to other people. Besides, the cane sugar is in short supply. I don't have to worry about selling it at all. Even if the second uncle knew about it, he wouldn't say anything about me."

On the other side, the smile on the face of the girl in the pink gauze skirt disappeared instantly after she walked out of the Jinyuanzheng shop with her maid.

Thinking of the loss of the expensive hairdress she had carefully selected and bought, she almost bleeds in her heart.

Bah, what kind of lady from the official family has such an ugly diet, she is not as good as a merchant girl like He Wanying.

He Wanying pulled the veil hard to let out a sigh of relief, then turned her head and asked the maid in Tsing Yi who was following behind her, "Is the matter settled?"

"It's done, the servant girl mixed the medicine into the biscuits, and the two horses couldn't wait to eat it when they smelled the aroma."

"When you started, did you check it, and no one else saw it?"

"Don't worry, girl, the chauffeur just went to the latrine, and it happened to be lunch time. Except for the slaves, no one else was present."

"That's good."
