Chapter 193 Bargaining (2)
"It's Miss Chen." Hong Ling said with a smile, "I wonder if Miss Chen came to our Fengxian Pawnshop to buy or sell?"
Shen Miao said: “Buying and selling.”
Doing business at the same time, Hong Ling couldn't help but be stunned. The few girls in green clothes serving around seemed to be seeing Hong Ling lose her composure for the first time, and they all secretly glanced at Shen Miao.
Putting away the shock in her heart, Hongling continued to smile and said, "Then I wonder how much this deal made by Miss Shen is worth?"
Shen Miao shook her head.
Hong Ling didn't quite understand what she meant: "Miss Shen..."
Shen Miao's voice was completely calm: "I've already said it before, the business I want to do is too big, he can't afford it, and neither can you. If you want to discuss it, go find your master."
Hong Ling's throat was a little hoarse. Over the years, she had been very good at dealing with people, but because everyone who came here to do business knew what Bai Xiaosheng was doing, they were always polite to her. This was the first time she had been greeted so rudely. For a moment, she instinctively wanted to get angry, but when she looked up and met Shen Miao's gaze, she was slightly stunned.
The girl opposite her didn't look very old, her eyes clear as water, yet a chill seemed to pierce through her as she looked at her. Her calm demeanor held an inexplicable sense of majesty. Hongling felt that the way she looked at her didn't show any fear, but rather a simple, downward gaze.
Hongling's heart trembled, and her anger instantly disappeared. With so many people coming and going on business, she was quite good at judging people, but this girl's aura was... a bit shocking. She didn't know where it came from, but it actually made her feel a little uneasy.
"Miss Shen, I'm the manager here. If you need any business, naturally do it with me," she said. Although she felt that Shen Miao's status was extraordinary, Hong Ling was not intimidated. The smile on her face became even more brilliant: "No matter how much silver, I have seen it before."
"It has nothing to do with money," Shen Miao smiled faintly, "I've already said that you have no say in this deal." She glanced around, "I came here with sincerity, but you are insincere. Bai Xiaosheng is no better than that."
Hong Ling had never met such an impolite person before, and her smile immediately turned colder. She said, "I don't think Miss Shen is here to do business sincerely. Since Miss Shen doesn't trust me, I have no choice."
Shen Miao stared at her for a long while before saying, “In that case, I will first sell you a piece of information.”
Hongling paused, then heard the girl opposite her calmly utter a sentence: "How about selling you this information about the disappearance of the Chen sisters in Yuzhou, Jiangnan? If you think this information is valuable, please have the shopkeeper meet with me and we can discuss the purchase."
Hong Ling's body trembled, and she looked at her in shock. After a moment, she straightened her face and said, "Excuse me, Miss Shen, please wait a moment. Hong Ling will leave first."
Hongling left in a hurry. The remaining girls in blue in the tea room looked at her curiously, obviously not knowing why Hongling left suddenly after hearing what she said.
Shen Miao looked at the teacup in her hand. The tea was the finest Junshan Silver Needle, with a rich aroma. Paired with the faint scent of smoke in the tea room, it made one feel relaxed and happy. It was obvious that the owner of this place knew how to enjoy life.
The business of "Bai Xiaosheng" (literally "knowing the truth") deals in gossip, which is divided into buying and selling. Someone wants to buy, someone wants to sell. When the buyer and seller meet, the deal is done. The "Bai Xiaosheng" business is like the intersection of signal fire on a battlefield, connecting buyers and sellers.
