Chapter 608 Big Brother, Your Face Is Not Worth Anything
Fubao didn't care about Wan Laoer's change and was carried by Wanquan into Jubaozhai.
Jubaozhai is the most luxuriously decorated shop on this street. The three characters on the plaque are all made of pure gold, and the material of the plaque is the best small-leaf red sandalwood.
Jubaozhai is divided into three floors. The first floor is for some antiques of ordinary quality, the second floor is for more precious antique calligraphy and paintings, and the third floor is unaffordable for most people and is not open to the public. If there are good things here, they are usually gone before you even hear the news.
Wan Laoer entered Jubaozhai first. When the waiter there saw Wan Laoer's clothes, he thought they were just average, so his attitude was not so enthusiastic.
"Sir, you can only look at the things here, but you can't touch them. If they break, you can't afford to pay for them."
Wan Laoer had seen too many such guys who looked down on others in the past few months, so he didn't take it seriously. Instead, he stood in front of each antique display cabinet for a while with his hands behind his back.
The waiter followed Wan Laoer closely, as if he was guarding against a thief.
Wan Laoer turned around and glanced at the boy.
"I don't need your hospitality. I'm just going to take a look, not buy anything. Go and do your thing."
"If you can't afford it, don't watch it. If you watch it but don't buy it, what's the point of watching it?"
"You are so funny, little guy. Isn't this thing put out for people to see? Do you have to buy it before you can see it?"
Wan Laoer also got angry. He wanted to look today but would not buy or leave. He wanted to see if the people here could still throw him out.
The young man looked at Wan Laoer with contempt, his eyes almost rolling up to his head.
"Uncle, what are you looking at?"
Wanquan stood at the door holding Fubao, watching everything the boy said and did.
The young man and Wan Laoer turned their heads to look at the same time.
"Quan'er, Uncle has never seen so many antiques. I think they are very beautiful and I want to take a closer look."
The boy saw that Wan Quan had an extraordinary bearing and the little girl in his arms was even more delicate and pretty. It was obvious that he was from a wealthy family. Moreover, he had just called this uncle "Second Uncle". Are they a family?
The boy's attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn.
"Sir, would you like me to explain it to you in detail?" The waiter smiled flatteringly, bent his body, and nodded.
Wan Laoer glanced at the boy coldly, feeling embarrassed. How could this guy change so quickly? He was like a psychopath.
Wan Lao Er walked away and said, "Just don't follow me."
The young man immediately ran to Wanquan and showed his kindness to him.
"Go and call your shopkeeper."
Wan Quan gave a cold order and walked towards Wan Lao Er.
The young man was complaining bitterly at this time, and he just hoped that these people would not report him for any wrongdoing.
"Sister, which one do you like?"
Wan Quan held Fubao higher, as there were some antique vases here, placed a little high, and Wan Quan was afraid that Fubao couldn't see them.
Fubao rode on Wanquan's neck, looked around and shook his head.
"Big brother, the things here are not good, they are not worthy of you, and it would be embarrassing to use them as betrothal gifts. Let's look for something better, shall we?"
Wan Quan was a little amused and helpless. Could it be that this little girl really took this matter seriously?
"Sister, I don't plan to get married so soon, so you don't need to prepare a betrothal gift. I'm here to buy things for you. If you like anything, we can buy it back."
Fubao giggled, a sly light flashed in his eyes, and nodded, "Yes, yes, Fubao is wrong, I bought it for Fubao, hehe."
Wan Quan also took a look around, but unfortunately he didn't understand anything and couldn't figure out what was going on. He didn't know how Fubao knew that these things were bad, but Fubao had been different from other children since he was young and could tell what were good things. So if she said that the things here were not good, then they were probably really bad.
In fact, Wanquan misunderstood Fubao's meaning. When Fubao said that the things here were not good, it did not mean that they were fake. They were just some low-grade antiques, and their age and workmanship were not top-notch. Fubao had high standards, and these things were not to her liking. She felt that these things could not be used as betrothal gifts.
Fubao planned to prepare some betrothal gifts for her elder brother today, as she could see that her elder brother was about to get married.
At this time, the shopkeeper was invited by the waiter.
"It turns out that General Wan has come to visit us. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person."
The shopkeeper of Jubaozhai certainly knows all the powerful people in Texas, not to mention a young and promising general like Wanquan, who has a bright future and they are too busy trying to curry favor with him.
"It's not your fault that you didn't come to greet us, but it's your fault that you didn't discipline your subordinates."
Before Wan Quan could speak, Fubao, who was in his arms, spoke first. She saw with her own eyes that the boy was mocking her father. She was a vengeful person and she had to take revenge on the spot.
The young man was already nervous, and when he heard the shopkeeper say that this young man was actually the popular General Wan, cold sweat began to appear on his forehead. The shopkeeper would definitely not let him off. The treatment in Jubaozhai was very good, with a salary of two taels of silver every month. If he was fired, there would definitely be plenty of people waiting to fill the vacancy.
"Miss, I am blind and ignorant. I deserve to die. I deserve to die. I will accept your punishment. Please calm down."
Without waiting for the shopkeeper's punishment, the young man fell to his knees on the ground.
The shopkeeper was very shrewd. As soon as Fubao opened his mouth, he understood that this clerk had offended someone.
"Someone, take him away. I don't want to see him again."
The shopkeeper spoke directly and fired the young man on the spot.
The young man was pulled away by the people who came up and his mouth was blocked. Soon peace was restored in the room.
Wan Laoer was extremely pleased. He felt that his daughter was not raised in vain. She knew how to protect him at such a young age.
"General Wan, I was not disciplined enough and offended you. Please forgive me. To express our apology, Jubaozhai will give 20% off on all the items selected by General Wan today, and give General Wan an extra item as a gift."
Wan Quan didn't say anything, but looked at Fubao in his arms. As long as Fubao calmed down, he didn't care.
"Sister, what do you think?"
Fubao put on a smiling face and looked at the shopkeeper.
"Uncle shopkeeper, my brother is a general. Can I only give him 20% off for the sake of a general's face?"
After Fubao finished speaking, he looked at Wanquan again and said with disdain, "Big brother, your face is worthless."
The shopkeeper was stunned by Fubao's words. He was just being polite. He didn't expect that this little girl would take advantage of the situation to blackmail him. But who is this girl? It seems that General Wan cares about her.
"Miss, you are joking. The general is the youngest general in the whole of Texas. He has a bright future. It is an honor for us to have him come to our store. So, how about a 50% discount?"
This is the maximum authority the shopkeeper has, and this is because the profit from antiques is high, otherwise they would definitely lose money.
He had not expected that the little girl was so sharp-tongued. Generally, wealthy families valued their reputation and would not bargain directly. He wanted to give a 20% discount to give both parties a way out, but the little girl refused and took the opportunity to bargain with him, leaving him hanging.
Now the shopkeeper not only wants a discount, but also a big one, otherwise General Wan's face is worthless. Whose girl is this? Why is she so cunning?
The shopkeeper broke out in a cold sweat. He was afraid that Fubao would say something else, and he would really have to pay compensation.
At this moment, the shopkeeper was cursing the young man's ancestors in his heart, because his negligence caused Jubaozhai to suffer such a huge loss this time. He didn't know how to explain to his boss in the future. It seemed that he had to discipline these shop assistants in the future to prevent them from causing him such a big trouble again.
