Chapter 198 Raising the Price



Oh my god, he really dares! He casually charges such a high price for a bottle of jam made from wild fruits. He really is a spendthrift who has no worries about food and fuel!

Su Qingluan sighed in her heart - please have more of these rich kids with lots of money and stupidity!

Not to mention Su Qingluan, even the old butler who had always been calm and composed was frightened by the child's exorbitant price: "Young Master! Don't be so careless. The best fruit jam at Baiweizhai is only about this price..."

"But these two bottles taste better." Xie Zian said as a matter of course, "Not to mention that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Although I am reflecting again... and recuperating, I also miss home!"

Obviously, as soon as Xie Zian said the word "reflection", he realized that he had spoken out of turn and quickly changed his words. However, Su Qingluan was not deaf and naturally heard it clearly.

But she didn't even raise her eyelids, acting like a fool - just kidding, if you accidentally overhear someone else's embarrassing moments, you could easily make them angry and embarrassed. What if your business ends up being ruined?!

She can't lose this fast track to wealth and status that she has finally gotten on!

Seeing that Su Qingluan had no reaction, Xie Zian was not sure whether the other party heard him clearly, but he couldn't really ask.

Thinking that he had already been embarrassed many times today, Xie Zian felt a sense of relief, akin to "Nirvana rebirth".

If he were in modern times, he would definitely know that there is a proverb that can describe this feeling: A lot of debts don't weigh you down, and a lot of lice don't bite you.

So based on this strange feeling, Xie Zian relaxed and continued to say to the housekeeper: "The old lady at home likes sweets, but she has bad teeth and can't eat those cakes. Isn't this a good way to honor her?"

Upon hearing this, the old housekeeper immediately smiled and nodded: "If the old lady knew that the young master was so filial, she would definitely be very happy."

Su Qingluan complained silently in her heart: He only thought of sending gifts in order to lift the punishment as soon as possible. He is really "very filial".

However, Su Qingluan observed with a cold eye that although Xie Zian, this dandy young man, had various problems, they could generally be considered "willful" and "sick", and could not be considered to have committed a heinous crime. Although he was a bit annoying, he was stupid and had a lot of money.

All in all, they are high-quality customers and can be developed vigorously.

Su Qingluan spoke at the right time: "It is already August, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is only a few days away." In fact, today is the ninth day of August, and there are only six days left until the fifteenth.

Xie Zian waved his sleeves and said, "Don't worry about that. Just bring the jam. I'll send someone to ride as fast as they can and they'll reach the capital in a few days."

When Su Qingluan heard this, she couldn't help but reveal an expression of toothache.

"What's that expression on your face?!" Xie Zian said dissatisfiedly, "Don't you believe that my Xie family has this ability?"

"No, no," Su Qingluan hurriedly shook her head in a flattering manner. "I was just sighing. The capital is said to be a thousand miles away from this small county, but it can be reached in just a few days!"

"Hmph, what do you, a country bumpkin, know? The Xie family is no ordinary family. They have countless fine horses and precious gems, so they can easily travel a thousand miles a day. How can you compare with your trekking on foot or your simple mule cart?"

……hehe.

The corner of Su Qingluan's mouth twitched, and she suppressed the urge to swear again, thinking in her heart: You are the one who is ignorant. In my previous life, I could fly thousands of miles a day without interrupting my meals and sleep. You little bastard, you must be envious to death if I tell you this!

Thinking of this, she didn't show anything on the surface. She just bowed her head and said respectfully: "Xie Xiaolangjun is a wealthy man, so he is naturally not comparable to ordinary people like us."

"But as long as my old lady likes your jam, I will definitely reward you." Xie Zian made the wish nonchalantly.

That's true. As long as he can make Xie Zian happy, his rewards are always generous.

"Thank you for your kindness, young master, but..." Su Qingluan still had that embarrassed expression.

Xie Zian was unhappy now: "Su Qingluan! Don't ask for such an exorbitant price! Are you dissatisfied with the low price?"

The old housekeeper also sternly rebuked him, "You ignorant boy, don't be blinded by the petty gains in front of you and fail to see the overall situation!"

Su Qingluan sneered in her heart: Haha, after pretending to be "amiable" for so long, her true colors were revealed as soon as she was not satisfied?

However, on the surface, she bowed with a look of panic and grievance, and whispered, "You two are really wronging me. My embarrassment has nothing to do with the price!"
