Uncle Gao curled his lips slightly, a forced smile.
He thought to himself, "That kid Gao Chong has finally learned to be smart; he's even mastered the art of provocation."
Wait… Xingyue Tower? Sister Qiu? “You’re Miss Qiu from Xingyue Tower? The Miss Qiu who mainly runs the food delivery business?”
Qiu Yan nodded, "Exactly."
Upon hearing Qiu Yan's reply, Uncle Gao's expression softened considerably.
If that's the case, then this business will be much easier to do.
In the blink of an eye, his expression changed again.
Why is Gao Chong so biased towards outsiders?
Miss Qiu is no ordinary woman.
He pointed at Qiu Yan and said to Gao Chong, "Gao Chong, do you know that it's because of her that your father was fired from Shuangxilou?"
However, that's not the point.
The key point is that if it weren't for this girl, Shuangxilou wouldn't have changed its business to become a teahouse.
And his business will certainly not be suppressed.
The new owner of the teahouse is a shrewd businessman.
“Uncle, what you’re saying is wrong. It was my father who maliciously suppressed Xingyue Tower’s business first. Sister Qiu was just competing fairly. She didn’t do anything unreasonable.”
Although Gao Chong didn't want to admit it, he had to say that Qiu's sister was smarter than his father; that was a fact.
He wouldn't have spoken like that before.
Uncle Gao snorted, "You're quite shrewd, kid." Everyone understands the principle, but the business world is like a battlefield.
Qiu Yan didn't like hearing what Uncle Gao said. What did he mean by saying that Manager Gao was fired from Shuangxi Restaurant because of her?
Manager Gao clearly brought this upon himself.
Those who maliciously try to drive down prices will only suffer the consequences, while she was simply cooperating.
"You must know about the Baiyang Incident. Even if Manager Gao wasn't dismissed by the owner of Shuangxilou for maliciously undercutting prices, he would still be arrested and questioned by the county magistrate."
Do you think he can continue as the manager?
Qiu Yan knew that Tang Yi was currently keeping a close eye on that teahouse, hoping to find some clues.
Uncle Gao nodded to himself when he heard Qiu Yan say that what the girl said made some sense.
“Miss Qiu, let’s get back to the point. If you really want to buy this shop, this is the minimum price.”
As he spoke, he held up two fingers.
"Two hundred taels?" Qiu Yan asked deliberately.
"Two thousand taels!" Uncle Gao raised his voice.
Upon hearing the selling price, Zhao San broke out in a cold sweat. This owner was really daring to ask for that price.
He slowly shook his head at Qiu Yan.
Qiu Yan glanced at her uncle and gestured to him not to worry.
Then, she gave a polite, faint smile and said, "The business at this teahouse..." She shook her head after saying that, "It's not doing very well."
When this was mentioned, Uncle Gao's expression changed. If the teahouse business were as good as before, why would he sell it?
He was also frustrated, as his perfectly good business had been crushed by the teahouse that was originally Shuangxilou.
The teahouse not only imitated the pipa player from Xingyue Tower, but also hired tea-serving girls on their own.
In this respect, they cannot compare.
Of course, Gao's manager was also part of the reason why he wanted to close the shop.
Manager Gao has nothing to do now and wants to come to this teahouse to get a share of the profits.
Uncle Gao naturally refused.
Since Uncle Gao also has other businesses outside, he plans to split the shop in two with Manager Gao and sell it directly, which would be the best course of action.
"Young lady, how do you know if my teahouse is doing well or not?"
Qiu Yan glanced casually into the shop, and Uncle Gao's expression changed. "This...it's the New Year...all the tea drinkers are busy at home celebrating the New Year...Miss Qiu, do you also want to start this teahouse business?"
Qiu Yan remained noncommittal, simply observing the shopfront intently.
Gao Chong, who was standing to the side, did not answer.
Seeing Qiu Yan's hesitant look, Uncle Gao looked at Gao Chong, signaling him to speak up for her.
