Uncle stood by the window, facing one direction, expressionless.
Two caravans arrived from the Central Plains. They were sparsely populated and did not seem to be doing business. However, they set off with their goods not long after arriving at the Water Maiden's mountain, accompanied by soldiers.
Therefore, Uncle Yin inevitably overthinks things.
He had already received a report that the Jiang and Lu families were two major gambling families in the jade industry, and both families had very high requirements. They wouldn't even look at ordinary raw stones. The fact that they brought so few people this time might not be for inventory.
But they took away a lot of goods, and even had someone escorting them.
Uncle Yin went through everything from the appearance of the Water Girl until now, and felt that something was not right.
When Miss Shui was selecting goods for Boss Zuo, she did so efficiently and quickly, choosing only the best items. However, when he invited her to appraise the stones, she was only about 50-60% accurate. Was this her true skill? If the most valuable stones in her mine were only worth a thousand taels, why would the Jiang and Lu families be in such a hurry to leave with their goods, without even bothering to look at the other warehouse areas?
Moreover, the Jiang and Lu families mainly did business with him in the past, so they didn't even need to greet him this time.
The more Uncle Yin thought about it, the more he felt that the girl Shui was definitely hiding something from him, and it was something of great importance to her interests.
"Uncle, the shuttle has arrived," the butler said as he entered.
Uncle Yin nodded, a gentle expression appearing on his face, and walked over to sit down.
But as he entered the living room, he bowed and said, "Uncle Yin."
He noticed that guests from different countries in the warehouse area were being greeted by translators, and there was no one else in the living room, indicating that he had not been invited for translation purposes.
"Please sit down." Uncle Yin gestured for Danso to sit down, which left Danso stunned.
After he thanked them, he took his seat, and the servants brought out refreshments and arranged them carefully.
Uncle Yin, whose face was usually stern, looked at Dan Su with a smile and said, "Now that you're working for Miss Shui, you're only serving her. She must be paying you quite a bit of money."
But Suo simply grunted and said, "I want to raise my younger sister. If she stays with Miss Shui, at least things will be more stable."
Uncle Yin chuckled and expressed his understanding, adding, "Miss Shui is friendly to everyone, no wonder the residents are willing to mine for her, which is why she came. But when it comes to winning people's hearts, no one can compare to her."
But Suo's lips twitched, a feeling of disgust welling up inside him, but he couldn't express his thoughts.
What does it mean to win people's hearts? Water Maiden is genuinely kind to people, so with the blessing of Naga Buddha, she gambled on a mine. No, there are still two mines yet to be mined, and she might even gamble on three.
Seeing his silence, Uncle Yin's face became more meaningful: "Don't overthink it, Dan Suo. I called you here to have a chat. After all, you've helped me a lot over the years, and we still have a relationship, don't you think?"
But Suo's eyebrows twitched, and he said respectfully, "I wonder what instructions Uncle Yin has for me?"
