Before Traversing to the 70s, the Legitimate Daughter of the Marquis Empties Half the Imperial City

The legitimate daughter of the marquis, Lin Ran, who had just experienced the loss of her mother and the only relative in her maternal family, was plotted against by her father and stepmother, but ...

Chapter 246 Threat

Wang Zhaodi was stunned!

Zhou Manman was also shocked.

"It's you!"

But Zhou Manman soon smiled. She glanced at the hair ornaments in Wang Zhaodi's backpack and said with a half-smile:

"So you're here to sell hair flowers? Do Captain Lin and the others know about this?"

This successfully sobered Wang Zhaodi up, and she subconsciously stopped him:

"No, please don't tell them!"

If my parents-in-law knew that I was involved in speculation and profiteering, they would definitely ask Lin Lao Er to divorce me.

But as soon as she said this, she realized that she had confessed herself and quickly covered her mouth.

But it was too late, Zhou Manman had already heard it.

Zhou Manman’s first reaction was to report Wang Zhaodi. By then, the entire Lin family, including Lin Ran, might be implicated as bad elements.

Of course, if this happened in the past, she would definitely do it this way.

But things are different now. Instead of letting Lin Ran suffer misfortune, she wants to gain some practical benefits from this.

As soon as the thought came to her mind, Zhou Manman immediately had an idea.

She got straight to the point:

"If you want me to keep quiet, that's fine. How much hush money are you willing to give me?"

Wang Zhaodi’s eyes widened.

"What? Hush money?"

money?

She was a little bit incredulous.

"Zhou Zhiqing, do you think I'm worthless?"

Zhou Manman's face flushed immediately when she heard this.

She really didn't care about these little things before, because she had someone to rely on, but now even a dollar is good.

So he pretended to be impatient and said:

"You still want me to keep it a secret for you for free? I'm telling you, dream on! Hurry and hand over all the money you have, or I might get upset and tell everyone about it, and you'll have to bear the consequences yourself!"

Wang Zhaodi became anxious when she heard this.

"No, no, Zhou Zhiqing, let's talk it out. I, I'll give it to you!"

No matter how reluctant she was, Wang Zhaodi did not dare to take the risk.

What if Zhou Manman really goes around telling everyone?

When the time comes, not only will you be divorced, but you will also be arrested and thrown into prison.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhaodi could only take out the money she had just earned today.

It’s not even warm yet!

It’s all my fault. I didn’t check the almanac before going out today. How come I happened to run into Zhou Manman, this unlucky star?

If you calculate it this way, not only did I not make any money today, I even had to pay for the car fare myself. What a huge loss!

Thinking of the fare, she quickly took out a few cents.

"I need to save some money for the ride back."

Then he handed over the remaining one dollar and twenty cents.

"Here you go! Don't lie to me! If you take the hush money, you can't tell anyone."

When she said this, Wang Zhaodi's heart was bleeding.

"Don't worry, I, Zhou Manman, keep my word!"

Zhou Manman looked at the dozen or so crumpled pieces of paper containing one-cent coins, and to be honest, she felt quite disgusted.

But thinking of her empty pockets, she tried her best to ignore the discomfort in her heart and gritted her teeth to take the banknotes.

She counted them roughly, and then became suspicious.

"You made this much money in just this morning?"

Wang Zhaodi couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"What else do you think? It's not that easy to make money. What's more, what I sell is not a hot commodity. I can only make so much money thanks to my good eloquence."

But when she said this, she subconsciously protected her other pocket.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to know not to put all her eggs in one basket.

Of course, money too, she usually hides it separately.

Otherwise, wouldn't Zhou Manman have gotten me into trouble today?

Fortunately, this was Zhou Manman's first time doing this and she had no experience, so she naturally didn't notice Wang Zhaodi's little tricks.

And at this moment, all her attention was focused on Wang Zhaodi's last words.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she thought of a good idea.

She stuffed all the banknotes in her hand into her trouser pockets, then pulled Wang Zhaodi to the corner.

Wang Zhaodi was so scared that she struggled hard to escape, thinking that Zhou Manman took the money and refused to acknowledge it.

Seeing this, Zhou Manman quickly explained her intentions.

"Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

"What's going on?"

He looks so sneaky, it must be something bad.

Zhou Manman raised the watch in her hand.

"Didn't you say you're good at speaking? Just help me sell this watch."

She also realized that Wang Zhaodi must have been in the black market for some time and must be very familiar with the situation here.

Anyway, he definitely knows more than me.

It would be great to ask her to help sell the watches, and it would also prevent me from being cheated.

After listening to this, Wang Zhaodi scratched her ears, thinking she had heard it wrong.

"What? Selling watches?"

Are the educated youth this short of money?

Are they starting to rely on buyers to survive?

Could it be that she was too wasteful before and squandered all her fortune?

But she didn't dare to ask this question to her face. Didn't she see that Zhou Manman's face had turned dark?

Zhou Manman was indeed a little embarrassed.

This was the first time in her two lives that she was in such a difficult situation. Now she could only make a living by selling things.

But her strong self-esteem still prevented her from facing it calmly, so she could only pretend to be coquettish and said:

"Is it okay to just sell the watch? I don't like it anymore and want to sell it and buy a new one, right?"

Wang Zhaodi thought this was a bit strange, but what was the difference between an old watch and a new one?

But now she just wants to get away from this plague god as soon as possible and doesn't want to meddle in other people's business.

"Okay, okay, you can do whatever you want with your stuff, but this thing isn't like cabbage that can be sold just like that.
