Chapter 526: You’re doomed to suffer in silence!
An old woman in the front row was the first to lift her skirt, kneel down on the ground with a plop, and chanted, "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has appeared!" This bow was like a command, and the people around her knelt down one after another, prostrating themselves on the ground like a tide.
The statue of Guanyin lowers its eyes, as if gazing at all devout believers with compassion.
Wen Yan pulled Meng Chifei and knelt down as well, kneeling reverently and solemnly.
Princess Jinghe had never seen such a big scene before and stood there in a daze.
The eldest princess refused to kneel.
She pulled her daughter's hand and asked her to stand and worship together.
Until the rainbow disappears.
The people then stood up.
Wen Yan smiled and looked at Gu Sai’s track: “Princess Jinghe, please confirm whether the things are intact.
If you confirm that it is correct, please sign for it.
If you are not satisfied with the product, or if there is any damage, the transaction can be terminated immediately and the deposit will be returned in full."
Wen Yan's expression was sincere. She even took out the deposit that Gu Saisai had paid earlier from her sleeve and placed it on the table.
Gu Saisai really didn't want to be a sucker and spend these 300,000 taels of silver.
She looked at the eldest princess, asking whether she should proceed with the plan.
The eldest princess looked at the outermost part of the crowd, where many people dressed as scholars were standing.
Her heart sank slightly.
This Wen Yan, his methods are really endless!
Just as the mother and daughter were arguing with each other, a middle-aged wealthy businessman with a plump figure and wearing a brocade gown walked out of the crowd.
He bowed to Wen Yan and said in a resounding voice, "Manager Liu, if the princess gives up, could I respectfully welcome her back to the mansion?"
Wen Yan glanced at the wealthy businessman and could tell from his clothes, skin, expression and temperament that he was a man with plenty of money.
A flash of excitement flashed across Wen Yan's eyes, like a wolf seeing a fat sheep.
But she restrained herself and said modestly, "If the princess returns it, it means that this statue has a flaw. You don't have to..."
The man waved his hand and said, “Let’s not talk about the fact that the workmanship of this Guanyin statue is already exquisite.
My mother is a devout Buddhist, and today she was able to witness the Bodhisattva's manifestation of holy light. This kind of blessing is something you can only encounter by chance."
"But..." Wen Yan still hesitated.
The man immediately raised two fingers and said, "I'm willing to pay double the price for this Buddha statue."
"Do you know how much silver this Buddha statue costs?"
The wealthy businessman said, "I know. Three hundred thousand taels. I am willing to pay six hundred thousand taels."
As soon as the amount of six hundred thousand taels was announced, there were gasps one after another at the scene.
Some people counted on their fingers.
I only earn thirty taels of silver a year.
Ten years worth three hundred taels, a hundred years worth three thousand taels, a thousand years worth thirty thousand taels...
No, no, we can’t let it go.
You can’t earn that much money even if you reincarnate ten times.
Wen Yan smiled and looked at Princess Jinghe: "Your Highness, what is your decision...?"
The expressions of the eldest princess and her daughter kept changing.
What is this fat guy thinking?
Are you trying to slap them in the face by snatching things in public?
They would not return the goods in public.
They had already made arrangements at the mansion.
When the delivery boy was delivering something to the house, he slipped and fell, breaking something.
If you don't pay the balance, the purchase will be invalid.
It's a pity for this glass Guanyin statue. Its holy light is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it can even be presented to the Queen Mother...
The princess felt sorry in her heart, but smiled: "How can we return it? It's just that we are not familiar with glassware. Please move it to the Buddhist hall in the mansion."
When the wealthy businessman heard what Princess Jinghe said, he sighed with regret: "Alas, I don't have this blessing."
Wen Yan bowed to the princess and said, "Okay, please wait."
Wen Yan instructed the servant to put the two pieces of glassware back into the box.
After everything was packed up, Wen Yan asked someone to lift the boxes and walk towards the Prince Consort's residence.
Suddenly.
A servant tripped.
The box tilted to the side and was about to fall to the ground.
Gu Saisai's eyes suddenly widened, full of excitement.
Meng Chifei was quick-witted and quick-handed. He leaped over and stabilized the box.
Meng Chifei glared at the porter with disdain: "You can't even move a box like this, you useless piece of shit!"
After she finished scolding, she hooked her finger at Ji Chengyuan and said, "Little Chief Yuan, your men are all tall and strong. Come over and give me a hand."
"Okay." Ji Chengyuan winked at his men, and they stepped forward to take the box and headed towards the Prince Consort's residence.
Ji Chengyuan also asked Gu Saisai to lead the way.
Gu Saisai looked at the eldest princess nervously.
Whether to implement it as planned.
The people led by Ji Chengyuan are now just ordinary soldiers of the Weicheng Division.
As soon as they took off their military uniforms, they transformed themselves into noble sons who could call the shots in the capital and were not afraid of any big trouble.
If the glassware was dropped or damaged in their hands, no one would suffer the loss.
We will definitely make a big deal out of this and get to the bottom of it.
The tricks she did could be easily exposed.
At that time, she would not only have to pay extra money as compensation, but her reputation would also be ruined.
The eldest princess looked at Wen Yan and Meng Chifei with a faint gaze.
These two people are young, but they are very scheming and have planned everything out.
His eyes swept over the two of them.
It seems that she is bound to suffer the loss of three hundred thousand taels!
The princess gritted her teeth and said to Ji Chengyuan, "Forget it, since we have already inspected the goods, we won't bother you anymore. We will move the things back to the palace ourselves."
Wen Yan bowed to her and handed her a booklet, "Then I'll trouble you, Your Highness. This glass chandelier has special installation requirements.
Your Highness can install it yourself according to the drawings, or you can send someone to the shop and we will send professional craftsmen to assist you."
The princess nodded slightly, then asked someone to carry the box into the mansion and slammed the door shut.
The onlookers also dispersed with a sense of reluctance.
Ji Chengyuan walked towards Wen Yan and was about to say something to her, but he came up empty-handed.
I only saw Wen Yanchao and the people chasing after him quickly.
She quickly stopped the wealthy businessman who wanted the Glass Guanyin.
"This great master." Wen Yan looked at her with a smile.
"Shopkeeper Wen! Why are you here? Do you have something else to ask me?!" The rich businessman was very polite to Wen Yan.
Even if Wen Yan doesn't look for him, he will go to the shop to find her tomorrow.
"Glass Guanyin, do you still want it?" Wen Yan asked.
The wealthy businessman's pea-sized eyes suddenly lit up, and even his pupils dilated: "Shopkeeper Wen, do you still have the Glazed Guanyin in your hand?"
Wen Yan nodded: "It's just that the size is not as big as the one just now."
The wealthy businessman said happily, "As long as the statue satisfies me, the size doesn't have to be so strict."
"Since that's the case, why not move on to 'Jingming Tower'?
I'll show you the portrait and you can decide whether to buy it, okay?"
"That's great!" The wealthy businessman responded repeatedly and followed Wen Yan back to Jingming Tower.
Wen Yan smiled. There was such a big fat sheep here. If you don't buy ten or eight things after entering Jingminglou, you can't leave.
The rich businessman's eyes were shining, and he was thinking that he might be able to use this to negotiate a long-term business deal.
