Shopkeeper Su rubbed his hands, his brain constantly calculating, not knowing how much money to give.
"Shopkeeper Su?" the young scholar called out.
Shopkeeper Su swallowed his saliva, looked at Su Ruoli seriously and said, "How about eight thousand?"
"Eight thousand?" Su Ruoli's voice was filled with disbelief. She didn't expect that two hundred year old ginseng would be so valuable.
When the young scholar heard Su Ruoli's voice, he thought she was not satisfied with the price and pushed Shopkeeper Su.
"Nine thousand at most. If it's more, I'll lose money. Although two hundred year old ginseng is not common, it does exist." Shopkeeper Su said.
(This price is purely fictitious!!!)
The price can still go up? Is this a pleasant surprise?
"Then let's go by the price Shopkeeper Su said. Give me the money and the ginseng will be yours." Su Ruoli said calmly.
Shopkeeper Su was shocked when he heard Su Ruoli's indifferent voice. This little girl didn't even change her expression or voice when she heard so much money.
Shopkeeper Su turned around and went out to give an order.
Soon a medicine boy came in with a box, handed the box to Shopkeeper Su, and left.
Shopkeeper Su handed the box to Su Ruoli again, "Nine thousand yuan, all in the box, count it!"
Su Ruoli opened the box and saw rolls of big unity neatly arranged.
Su Ruoli counted carefully, and after confirming that everything was correct, she closed the lid.
"It's a pleasure working with you." Su Ruoli said with a smile.
"Well, it's a pleasure working with you. You can send me good things next time. As long as the quality is good, I will give you the highest price." Shopkeeper Su also smiled.
"It's a blessing to have this thing." Su Ruoli said.
"That's right. Good things are hard to come by. So we can be considered friends now. I don't know your name, young lady. Calling you "young lady" all the time seems so strange!" said the shopkeeper Su.
"Jian Chen!" Su Ruoli said the name she used when trading with Lin Chen.
"Then can I call you Miss Jane?" Shopkeeper Su asked, introducing himself. "My name is Su Binhui. You can call me whatever you want!"
Shopkeeper Su pointed to the scholar next to him and said, "His name is Yang Yibo, and he is the one who wants the ginseng."
"Okay, then I'll call you Uncle Hui." Su Ruoli said, and greeted Yang Yi Bo again.
"All is fine!" Shopkeeper Su said happily.
"Now that everything is said and done, I'll go back first. There are elderly people at home." Su Ruoli said as she stood up and said goodbye.
Yang Yi Bo said shyly, "How about I treat you to a meal? Thank you for helping me so much."
"It's a matter of payment and goods. I didn't do anything for you. You don't need to eat with me. I have other things to do." After saying that, Su Ruoli walked away.
Shopkeeper Su and Yang Yi Bo followed and sent Su Ruoli out the door.
Until Su Ruoli rode away on her bicycle, Yang Yi Bo was still staring in that direction.
Shopkeeper Su turned to look at Yang Yi Bo with a face full of gossip. This kid might be interested in Miss Jian. However, looking at Miss Jian's expression, Shopkeeper Su shook his head. This kid might be in unrequited love.
"Don't look anymore, everyone has disappeared." Shopkeeper Su patted Yang Yi Bo's shoulder.
"Ah? I didn't see it?" Yang Yi Bo flatly denied it.
"If you like her, just go after her." Shopkeeper Su encouraged.
"But, I just met her..." Yang Yi Bo hesitated.
"What's wrong with just meeting? It's normal to fall in love at first sight." Shopkeeper Su continued to encourage him, "Besides, you two are about the same age. I think Miss Jian is quite good."
After hearing what Manager Su said, Yang Yi Bo felt a little hesitant, but after thinking about it, he decided to give up. They had only met twice at most.
He didn't want her to feel that he was too abrupt. If they were destined to meet again, they would definitely meet again. He would definitely be brave this time when they met next time.
What surprised Yang Yi Bo was that fate could come so quickly.
"Let's go, Manager Su, let's go in." Yang Yi Bo said and turned to go inside.
Entered the inner room.
"Shopkeeper Su, I'll give you 9,500 for this ginseng. Is that okay?" Yang Yi Bo asked.
"Okay, this way I can make another 500 yuan." Shopkeeper Su said. He had originally planned to give it to Yang Yi Bo at the original price, but now he offered to give him an extra 500 yuan. He was so happy that he couldn't contain himself.
He was present during the entire transaction, so he felt embarrassed to ask for an exorbitant price. If he sold it to someone else, it would cost at least 10,000 yuan.
But now, 500 is 500, it’s better than nothing!
"Then take the ginseng and come with me to withdraw money. I have the passbook with me." Yang Yi Bo said.
Shopkeeper Su ran out to find a box and carefully placed the ginseng inside. "That little girl Jian is really something. She wrapped such a good treasure in a piece of rag. It's such a waste."
Shopkeeper Su and Yang Yi Bo came to the bank together. After withdrawing the money, Yang Yi Bo took the ginseng and prepared to go home.
However, when they walked out of the bank, they saw a familiar figure - Jian Chen (Su Ruoli).
Su Ruoli also happened to see him and Shopkeeper Su, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Shopkeeper Su walked forward and greeted with a smile: "Jian girl, what a coincidence, I meet you again."
Su Ruoli responded politely: "Yes, what a coincidence."
Shopkeeper Su pushed Yang Yi Bo and said, "Jane girl, this kid said he has something to tell you. You two can chat slowly. I'll go back first." After that, Shopkeeper Su slipped away.
"Do you have anything to say?" Su Ruoli asked.
Yang Yi Bo mustered up the courage to invite him, "Since we're so destined to meet, why don't we have a meal together? Thank you for selling me such good ginseng."
"There's no need to say thank you. Besides, I made the deal with Uncle Hui, so if you want to thank someone, you should thank Uncle Hui." Su Ruoli said.
"But...but..." Yang Yi Bo stuttered, not knowing what to say next.
"Don't say but, let's go back. I'm leaving." After saying that, Su Ruoli pushed her bicycle and was about to leave.
Seeing Su Ruoli was about to leave, Yang Yibo closed his eyes and said loudly, "Miss Jian, I think you are very good. I want to be with you."
Su Ruoli staggered and almost fell to the ground. Who said that people of this generation are conservative? They had only met three times including this time, and they hadn't said much. Where did this guy get the courage?
Yang Yi Bo helped Su Ruoli.
Su Ruoli took a big step back while pushing her bicycle and said seriously, "Comrade Yang Yibo, I'm already married."
"If you think it's too fast, we can try to get along first without getting married." Yang Yi Bo said. He felt that Su Ruoli's talk of getting married was just an excuse.
"Comrade Yang Yi Bo, I am really married. My husband is a soldier, so there is no need to say these things in the future. Oh, that's not right! We will have no intersection in the future." Su Ruoli said seriously.
