The shopkeeper knelt on the ground, trembling all over and breaking out in a cold sweat.
It was not yet dinner time, so there were not many people in the store. The customers who were in the store were also quite far away from them. They did not hear clearly what the shopkeeper said, but when they saw him kneeling down, they all looked at them with surprise.
Yuchi Xi put the jade pendant back and said, "Get up."
"Boss, I don't plan to reveal my identity now, so I'd like you to keep it secret for me."
The shopkeeper quickly waved his hands, "No trouble, no trouble!"
"What's the trouble?"
The shopkeeper stood up and didn't dare to sit down.
Yuchi Xi curved his lips and smiled, "Sit down and talk, we are reasonable people."
“Hey! Hey!”
The shopkeeper only dared to sit a little bit, but this was a long bench, and if he sat a little bit, the other side would lift up. He fell to the ground, not daring to groan. He quickly got up and put the bench back, his hands shaking, "I'm too fat, I'm sorry to make you laugh."
Yuchi Xi:?
She didn't want to use her status to bully others.
But I didn't expect that the identity of the little princess of Yuan Kingdom would be so useful.
"No problem."
"Sit down and talk."
This time the shopkeeper didn't dare to sit just a little bit. He sat directly in the middle of the stool and took out a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
Yuchi Xi said, "You have to lower the price."
"Yes, yes, the price will definitely be reduced, definitely!"
"The little one will surrender now!"
The shopkeeper beckoned the waiter over and said, "Go, tell the accountant to keep the old price when we collect the money. Don't charge a penny more!"
The waiter was shocked. "Boss, why are you suddenly like this?"
"Didn't you say that this month's sales were going to be greater than those of branches in other countries?"
"Why did the price drop suddenly?"
The shopkeeper said, "...if you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"
"Go, and do as I tell you!"
"Yes." The waiter was yelled at and didn't dare to ask more questions. He hurried to tell the accountant about it.
The shopkeeper smiled awkwardly, "Oh haha, I clearly said that the costs have increased, so I raised the prices. I don't know what they were thinking to slander me like this!"
“It really chills me!”
Yuchi Xi: ...I'm afraid what the waiter said is true. He just wants to compare his performance with stores in other countries. The flood happened here, which gave him a legitimate reason to raise prices.
"The price of accommodation..." Yuchi Xi narrowed his eyes.
The shopkeeper said, "Of course the price will be reduced, but we will charge the same as before and not a single penny more!"
“I will never charge more!”
Yuchi Xi was satisfied. "Also, your price increase during this period has caused some psychological harm to the people of our Yuan Kingdom."
The shopkeeper said, "???"
What the hell?
Psychological harm?
Where does the psychological harm come from? !
What does this mean? !
"You mean..."
The shopkeeper's tone was hesitant, "Let me compensate them?"
Yuchi Xi nodded, "I think so, what do you think?"
"After all, they've been living with you for the past two months, watching their money slip away day by day. How terrified they must be!"
Shopkeeper: ...
I don’t know whether they are panicking or not, but now I am really panicking.
"this……"
Yuchi Xi, "Why, you are not happy?"
The shopkeeper quickly waved his hands, "No, no, no, I'm perfectly willing!"
"You're right, this is what we should give you, it's what we deserve!"
"I just don't know how I can compensate them."
Yuchi Xi, "They need to rebuild their homes during this time. I won't ask you to pay a lot of compensation. During this time, their three meals a day and snacks will be provided by your 'Xiangsi' Inn. What do you think?"
Shopkeeper: ...
Not much.
But can he say that?
cannot!
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I think it's great, let's do it!"
It's better than giving them money directly.
Yuchi Xi smiled, "In that case, I wish your 'Xiangsi' Inn a prosperous business here."
Shopkeeper:!!!
At this moment, his whole body was soaked in cold sweat.
He understood the hidden meaning of this sentence. If he didn't know what was good for him today, he would have to leave the 'Xiangsi' Inn.
The shopkeeper smiled flatteringly, "Hey, hey, hey, thank you for your good wishes!"
"Sir, your tea and meat."
The waiter smiled and put down a plate of meat and a pot of tea.
Yuchi Xi picked up the chopsticks and said, "Thank you very much. Please help me get some rice."
"Hey! Yes!"
The waiter responded and hurried away to get some rice.
The shopkeeper said, "Please eat slowly. I won't disturb you."
Yuchi Xi waved his hand and said, "Okay."
The shopkeeper turned and walked away. After taking a few steps, he heard the young man's voice behind him, "Little Princess, why did you stop me just now?"
"He is disrespectful to you. According to Emperor Dewu's orders, I can kill him directly."
Shopkeeper:!!!
Scary!!
Luckily, the little princess had held him back. Ahhhh, no, is Emperor Dewu sick?! He just said a few words to his beloved little princess, and he's going to be beheaded?!
How can this be possible!
The shopkeeper didn't dare to listen anymore, so he slipped away.
Run!!
Danger!
Yuchi Xi smiled and said, "I didn't come here to kill anyone."
"I want him to pay the price. Letting him die right away would be too easy for him!"
She came here in the first place to seek benefits for the people.
