Chapter 98 Shameless
The woman was wearing a veil and her face could not be seen clearly.
Shang Jianqiu said that this had only appeared recently and had never been seen before.
What's even stranger is that she came here just to look at the handkerchief and ask for a price, and she had no intention of buying it. After going back and forth more than a dozen times, she understood something, so when she came, she just casually said a few words to get rid of her.
He didn't buy anything but just asked about the price, and he went back and forth several times. If such a customer were in Wanchongxuan, he would have been sent away early. Only if the boss was on good terms with him would he receive him.
Moreover, judging from the fabric of the woman's dress, it was a medium-quality brocade, and it didn't look like she couldn't afford an embroidered handkerchief with a hundred coins.
What was even more strange was that three days ago, this woman unexpectedly picked out a handkerchief embroidered with bamboo, which was originally priced at 120 wen, but she begged and pleaded until the price was reduced by 20 wen to 100 wen.
Qianzi Pavilion is a small business with good prices and good products. The missing twenty cents may be the profit earned by Shang Jianqiu.
Now, she wants to return the goods?
Even the best-tempered person gets mad.
How could a handkerchief that had been sold several days ago be returned? Hadn't she heard the saying "payment on delivery"?
It's just excessive.
The woman opened her mouth and said, "I have never been to school, how could I know so many things? I only know that your handkerchief is not liked by my husband."
And, "Not only must you return the veil, but you must also compensate me with a hundred coins as compensation for the harm caused to me by my husband's scolding."
Hearing this, Shang Jianqiu Jian was about to faint from anger. She had been doing business for so many years and thought she had seen all kinds of customers, but today really opened her eyes. She actually met such an unreasonable person?
Not only do I have to return the money for the handkerchief, but I also have to give her a hundred coins?
So, not only did she not sell the handkerchief, she also lost two hundred coins, right?
Shang Jianqiu refused without a second thought, "That's impossible."
She knew that if she set this precedent, she would lose her business. Would someone come to buy her handkerchief, say they didn't like it, and return it, demanding compensation?
Although doing business is about making money through harmony, there are also rules to follow. Once the rules are broken, there is no way the business will be successful in the future.
That woman is a powerful one.
After hearing what Shang Jianqiu said, he sat down in her shop without saying a word, yelling and saying that her shop was bullying customers because of its size and that it was bullying an illiterate girl like her. Some people who wanted to come in to buy handkerchiefs saw this and left, which attracted passers-by outside to stop and watch.
"you?"
When Shang Jianqiu saw this, she was so angry that her face turned blue. How could she do business like this?
When the woman saw this, she snorted smugly.
"If I were to ask you, why don't you just give me two hundred coins? Why bother fighting with me?"
"I'm not afraid to tell you. I live in Lotus Alley. You can come over anytime you want."
"If you don't give it to me today, I will come again tomorrow until you give it to me."
"Boss Shang, I've asked around. Apart from the one at Wanzhongxuan, yours is the best around here."
The item was good and the price was cheap, and she also thought that her husband would like the handkerchief. But who would have thought that when he saw the handkerchief, he would only say, "You are unlettered and extremely vulgar, why bother wasting this handkerchief?"
That sentence hit her to pieces. Could it be that Qin was not even as good as a handkerchief? She was unlettered and vulgar, but he had the guts to stay away.
And even if that happens, what can he do?
She was pregnant and gave birth to a son and a daughter for him? Isn't he happy?
Besides, was it her who didn't want to learn literature? It was clearly her family who didn't give her the opportunity to learn literature.
But she refused to accept the offer. She said, "Don't you scholars love bamboo? Look at how beautifully the bamboo is embroidered. It's so emerald green and vibrant."
But he looked at her as if she were a monster, and that look was more painful than ten thousand needles piercing her body.
He said, "Literati love bamboo for its character and hollowness. Bamboo is one of the Four Gentlemen. Bamboo... Forget it, why am I talking to you, an ignorant woman? Anyway, just don't mess around anymore."
After saying that, he stood up and left with his hands behind his back, and he didn't come back for the next two days.
She knew he must be angry.
It’s all because of the handkerchief, otherwise she wouldn’t have been scolded.
She had been thinking about it for a long time, and came here because she couldn't hold it in any longer today. She wanted to vent the anger she had felt towards him here.
She looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, which really made Shang Jianqiu very angry. She had never seen such a shameless woman.
But Shang Jianqiu also knew that if she continued like this, she would really have no chance of doing business anymore, as people outside were already pointing fingers at her shop.
Business is not small, but the ten pieces of exquisite embroidery that Miss Lin just brought must not be ruined in her hands.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Just wait for me," then went upstairs to get the money.
Lin Qingjun stopped him, "Boss Shang, if you do this, won't you only make her more arrogant?"
Not only that, but once she tastes the sweetness, she might do it again next time, which is not worth the loss.
Shang Jianqiu sighed, "How could I not know? But if I don't give it to her, I can't bear her being like this every day."
It would be better to solve this problem first and deal with it next time.
Lin Qingjun's eyes flickered and he smiled.
"I have a plan that will make this woman leave and never come back again. Boss Shang, are you willing to listen?"
Shang Jianqiu's eyes widened. "Really? If that's the case, then I'd like to thank you for your kindness, young lady."
As the saying goes, it's easier to deal with the King of Hell than with the little devils. She has a plan for dealing with a big King of Hell like Wan Chongxuan, but she doesn't know what to do with a scoundrel like the woman in front of her.
Lin Qingjun whispered to her, like this.
Shang Jianqiu frowned slightly, "Is this possible?"
It’s not that she doesn’t believe her, but isn’t this too unbelievable?
This woman came here to make trouble precisely because her husband didn't like the handkerchief, but now she is asked to invite her husband out. Isn't this fulfilling her wish?
Lin Qingjun didn't want to reveal the woman's identity. She just said to Shang Jianqiu, "You can go without worry. If she keeps pestering me, I'll compensate her with the two hundred taels."
Shang Jianqiu waved his hands quickly, "How can I trouble you, young lady? This matter is the business of Qianzi Pavilion... If that's the case, then I will do as you say."
It would be fine if she could give up, but if not, it would only be a matter of two hundred coins, and she could afford to pay it.
Shang Jianqiu thought that this matter was bound to require compensation of silver. As long as her husband could come, she would definitely get the two hundred coins. After all, it was not always possible to get two hundred coins out of nothing.
It just shocked her.
This woman was obviously panicking?
Is she panicking?
Shang Jianqiu was stunned. This was very interesting.
