Chapter 197 Bargaining (6)
No one would directly tell a middleman about this. Shen Miao's deal was not so much for an outsider as it was for Bai Xiaosheng. She wanted to use Bai Xiaosheng's mouth to spread some rumors, and then let these rumors "accidentally" spread to the royal family.
Bai Xiaosheng has been around all walks of life and has many connections in the city. They are like slippery loaches. When the time comes, they will slip into the crowd and disappear completely, making it impossible to trace their source.
Shen Miao would not be afraid of spreading rumors about ordinary families, even those from the imperial family. But if it involved the royal family, she could not take risks with the Shen family. This was her plan.
“Whether it’s business or intelligence gathering, wealth and honor are sought in danger,” Shen Miao smiled faintly, “Shopkeeper Ji doesn’t dare to do this business?”
Ji Yushu scratched his head and said like a young man in trouble, "I am naturally tempted by Miss Shen's conditions, but Fengxian Pawnshop is not a decoration, nor is it a tool for gambling. If Fengxian Pawnshop is in trouble because of the greed of one of us, I will be ashamed of our ancestors." He clasped his hands together and said, "Nowadays, Bai Xiaosheng's business is already rare. For the sake of our ancestors, I can't take this risk. I'm sorry, Miss Shen." He stood up and bowed to Shen Miao, "Fengxian Pawnshop will not accept the information you want to sell. If you don't change your mind about the previous sale, I will have someone make a note of it. When the Chen family in Jiangnan hears, I will send someone to inform you. As for where to inform, you can come to the pawnshop in ten days."
After saying this, Ji Yushu smiled at her with genuine apology and turned to leave. As he was about to step out of the teahouse, Shen Miao's voice came from behind him: "Manager Ji, the chips for the business are not enough. How about adding the mighty general Shen family?"
Ji Yushu was stunned and turned around.
The girl in purple lowered her head and looked at the teacup in front of her, as if she could see a flower in it. Her voice was calm, but with a deep tension that made the whole tea room seem unusually cramped.
"If you can agree to do this business, Dingjing City's mighty general's mansion will become your Bai Xiaosheng's network from now on."
…
Upstairs, Gao Yang and Xie Jingxing were still drinking tea when they suddenly heard a nervous voice: "Brothers, something bad has happened!" They looked up and saw Ji Yushu running in rashly.
He pulled aside the beaded curtain, sat down at the table, grabbed the quilt he had just left behind, poured himself a full cup of tea, and then gasped, "I was scared to death!"
"What's wrong with you?" Gao Yang joked, "Didn't you just rush down to see the beauty? What's wrong? Is the beauty not beautiful?"
"It's very beautiful, very beautiful."
"That's strange," Gao Yang stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "Could it be that the beauty is very fierce, and you made her angry?"
A frivolous person like Ji Yushu is hated by everyone wherever he goes. Shy girls are less so, but older people often laugh at him with great joy.
"It's more than just vicious!" Ji Yushu said with lingering fear, "It's simply a monster! Well, I've been working as a know-it-all for so many years, and this is the first time I've encountered such a business."
"Isn't it the matter of the Chen family in Jiangnan? Could it be that she is asking for a huge sum of money?" Gao Yang asked.
"It's more than just a lion's mouth! It's a bottomless pit!"
"What on earth is it?" Xie Jingxing glanced at him and said, "If you don't speak properly, I'll throw you out of here."
"Hey, this customer is selling news about the Jiangnan Chen family for free, saying she wants it to be used as collateral for the news. Do you know what news she wants? She wants news for the royal family. The news she wants is that Prince Yu's mansion is plotting a rebellion! Damn it!" Ji Yushu couldn't help but curse, "She's trying to use our Fengxian Pawnshop as a pretext to fabricate news for us!"
Gao Yang and Xie Jingxing's expressions gradually grew serious upon hearing this. Ji Yushu loved to play and probably didn't know the severity of it, but the two of them knew the danger in Ji Yushu's words.
This guest's method was quite brutal.
Ji Yushu was still shouting unwillingly: "Why? Why should my well-run Fengxian Pawnshop be used as a raft by others? If something goes wrong in the future, she will run away and my pawnshop will suffer. Do you think I'm stupid?"
"In that case, you shouldn't do it." Gao Yang said.
"Hehe," Ji Yushu suddenly changed his angry expression, laughed twice, and said, "If I could bargain and force her to give in, and offer a high price, guess what it is?"
"What?" Xie Jingxing asked lazily.
"It's the Shen family, the mighty general of Dingjing. The Shen family is one of Bai Xiaosheng's connections to make this deal happen. Look, I've helped you so much right after I came back. Thank me quickly!" Ji Yushu laughed wildly.
Shen family?
Xie Jing Xing stared at him and slowly said, "Who is this person?"
"A pretty little girl, surnamed Shen, probably from the Shen family." Ji Yushu scratched his head: "But she is very fierce and ignored my elegance."
