Chapter 56 My Wife Can Be the Head of the House



On the way here, Su Miaomiao had taken the treasure out of the space and placed it with Xiao Yunfei.

At this moment, Su Miaomiao said this and gave Xiao Yunfei a wink.

After receiving the signal, Xiao Yunfei immediately took out the lighter from his pocket.

He said it as if he was presenting a treasure.

"Boss, look, this is the treasure we brought."

"Oh, I've never seen this before. What is it?"

Seeing the steward's eyes shining as he looked at the lighter, Xiao Yunfei introduced it excitedly.

"This is a lighter. Just press it and it will start a fire."

The manager didn't believe it and shook his head.

"This thing doesn't look like it can emit fire. It's impossible. You must be talking nonsense."

"You don't believe it?"

Xiao Yunfei asked.

The steward shook his head.

"I don't believe it. What you said is too mysterious. No one would believe it."

"Then I'll show you right now, don't blink."

"Okay, I won't blink."

Xiao Yunfei held the lighter and pressed it lightly with his thumb.

With a "click", flames shot out from a small hole.

The steward was startled and stepped back quickly.

"Oh my god, this thing can really catch fire. What did you do just now?"

Xiao Yunfei showed the other party the lighter and said, "Look, I just pressed it lightly. Now you believe that we really have a treasure in our hands, right?"

"I believe it. This lighter of yours is amazing. It is indeed a rare treasure. Grandpa and I have seen many treasures over the years. This is the best one I have ever seen. I will go tell Grandpa right away. You wait here for me."

The butler left in a hurry after he finished speaking, running as he spoke.

"Don't leave, don't leave! Just wait for me at the door."

This time, the steward didn't let Su Miaomiao and the others wait too long. After a while, the steward came over personally to invite them in.

"Master Shen is very interested in your treasure and asked me to take you in quickly. Please come in."

Su Miaomiao and Xiao Yunfei looked at each other, then tacitly walked together and followed the steward.

Soon, they met Mr. Shen.

The other party was an old man with sharp eyes. After meeting them, he looked at them calmly and asked without smiling.

"I heard you have a treasure that can emit fire? Take it out and let me see it first."

"Yes." Xiao Yunfei responded and immediately took out the lighter and handed it over. "This is the treasure. Please take a look."

When Mr. Shen saw the lighter, his eyes lit up. He didn't take it directly, but pointed at the table next to him and said.

"Put it here, young man, put it here so I can have a good look at it."

Xiao Yunfei didn't understand why the other party didn't take it directly, but he didn't think much about it and put the lighter in the place the other party said.

Mr. Shen took out a magnifying glass and looked left and right, then asked after studying it for a while.

"Shouldn't it be flaming? Why isn't it flaming?"

"You have to press this to make it fire. If you don't press it, it won't fire."

"Oh." Mr. Shen nodded in understanding, then asked, "Where do you press?"

Xiao Yunfei pointed to the button on the lighter and said, "Press here."

"Then press it for me and let me see."

Mr. Shen's reaction was a little impatient.

Seeing this, Xiao Yunfei quickly picked up the lighter and pressed it.

When Mr. Shen saw the flame coming out of the lighter, his face suddenly showed joy and he couldn't help but sigh.

"This is great, this is a real treasure, not only is it beautiful, it can also emit fire. I want this, how much do you want to sell it for?"

When Su Miaomiao and Xiao Yunfei heard that Mr. Shen wanted it, they were instantly happy.

Xiao Yunfei subconsciously looked at Su Miaomiao. Su Miaomiao didn't know how much it should be sold for, so she spoke.

"How much does Mr. Shen think such a wonderful treasure is worth?"

Mr. Shen stroked his beard and smiled, looking unfathomable. He spoke slowly.

"You didn't go to the pawnshop, but came straight to me. This shows that you are very smart. I know you came to me because you want to get more money. Just name your price directly. There is no need to feel psychologically pressured. As long as the price is not too exaggerated, I don't mind giving you a little more."

Mr. Shen didn't say the price and kicked the ball back.

Su Miaomiao didn't dare to ask for an outrageous price, for fear of angering Mr. Shen and failing to complete the deal.

She took into account the price of the glass and the water bottle and finally named a number.

"I think Mr. Shen is a connoisseur of valuables. I can tell you really like this treasure, so I won't ask for more. The lighter is only eight hundred taels of silver. Do you think this price is acceptable?"

It's time to talk about the price again, and Su Miaomiao is a little nervous.

Mr. Shen just shook his head and said.

"It's too expensive. You're a woman, so I won't talk to you. Let the head of your family negotiate the price with me."

Su Miaomiao was looked down upon in this way.

She was a little embarrassed to say it so bluntly.

Su Miaomiao's expression changed. She was about to say something when she heard Xiao Yunfei say.

"Master Shen, my wife's opinion is my opinion. She can make the decision. Let her negotiate the price with you."

Mr. Shen's face turned pale and blue, and he sighed helplessly.

"Okay, then I'll talk to you."

Su Miaomiao felt sweet in her heart because Xiao Yunfei protected her.

She withdrew her gaze from Xiao Yunfei, and when she looked at Master Shen again, she was full of confidence.

"Master Shen, you think eight hundred taels is too expensive, so how much do you think is appropriate?"

"Five hundred taels at most."

"Five hundred taels is not enough, the minimum is seven hundred taels."
