Chapter 105 Negotiation Failure

People sit together and drink tea, and although there is laughter and chatter, it is not noisy. It is a nice place.

Two guards accompanied them, and the rest of the guards were waiting outside. Xiao Xun, Ji Xingzhi, Su Yang and others entered the teahouse, and a fat man with a fat head and a fat brain came towards them. His eyes were narrowed into a line and he was smiling. He looked like the owner of the teahouse.

"Ladies, would you like a private table or a private room?" the boss asked with a smile.

Xiao Xun smiled slightly and said, "Private room. Also, I have something I want to discuss with you. Is it convenient for you?"

The boss was slightly stunned, then replied: "It's convenient, please come this way, young lady."

The boss led us to the second floor. The second floor was very different from the first floor. It was very quiet, almost silent. In some rooms, people were clearly talking, but no sound could be heard. This shows how good the sound insulation is.

The room was also exceptionally elegant. Upon entering, a painting depicting the four seasons greeted the eye. Beyond the screen was a low tea table, complete with plum blossom tea sets. Curtains hung around the perimeter, and further inward was a window, its sill decorated with exquisite potted plants.

In addition, there was another sweet-looking girl kneeling beside the low table, probably serving tea and water.

After the greeting, the girl went to make tea. Ji Xingzhi and others sat down, and two guards stood by.

Xiao Xun was very nervous, but he kept a faint smile on his face. He extended his hand and motioned the boss to sit down: "Boss, please sit down."

The boss nodded, sat down and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about, young lady?"

Xiao Xun was silent for a moment, then said, "I heard you have flowers here, so I came to see them."

The boss was slightly stunned when he heard this: "Flowers? That girl has come to the wrong place. Quanji Teahouse is a place for drinking tea, not for admiring flowers."

"In that case... let me be frank. I came here for the blue Clivia. If the boss can sell it to me, I, Xiao Xun, will be very grateful," Xiao Xun said seriously.

The boss's expression suddenly changed. He stood up, straightened his robe, and said with an unhappy look, "We don't have what you want here. If you are here for tea, I will welcome you. If you are here to cause trouble, then... I will not see you off."

Xiao Xun's brows furrowed. She'd only come to look for the blue Clivia, so how could she be seen as looking for trouble? The owner knew something was amiss, but she didn't want to force it. Besides...this teahouse was doing so well, with so many dignitaries enjoying tea and chatting. For it to be so successful, there must be someone behind it. She didn't want to cause trouble for the prince.

Ji Xingzhi was determined to see the blue Clivia, and if possible, she would pick one to take away for research. She had seen snake gall, ice lotus seeds and other things, but she had only heard of blue Clivia and had never seen it.

Ji Xingzhi then said almost reflexively, "We come to the teahouse to drink tea. Let's moisten our throats before we go. Please ignore us and get busy."

The boss glanced at Ji Xingzhi and turned away.

After the boss left, the girl who made tea had just finished making the tea and added tea to the three people's cups. She knelt quietly on the side, watching the eyes and nose, and watching the heart with her nose.

"You go out too." Ji Xingzhi said to the girl.

"Yes." The girl nodded meekly, stood up and left, closing the door.

"Xue Zhao, you saw the boss's attitude just now. What should we do now?" Xiao Xun frowned.

Ji Xingzhi calmly picked up the teacup and sniffed it. Hmm, the tea was good, nothing wrong with it. So, she took a sip and said, "The boss's attitude shows that I'm not mistaken. The blue Clivia is in the teahouse. And, it seems that the boss won't sell it out. I have to think of a way..."

"Why don't we catch the boss and beat him up? He might sell him out." Su Yang suggested.

Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Xun glanced at Su Yang tacitly and ignored Su Yang's existence tacitly.
