Chapter 300 Xiaoyue
"It's been so many days, why is there still no news? How on earth do you manage things? If you're really incompetent, you're not the only pawnbroker in the capital!"
Jin Ya was already in a bad mood when he was hurriedly called out of his house. As soon as they met, he was scolded for no reason. No matter how good his temper was, he couldn't help but get angry.
"Since Mr. Song thinks I am not worthy of helping you, then ask for someone else!" After saying that, he turned around and left.
Song Laoer was stunned. This was different from what he expected!
He hurriedly called out to the person.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't go."
Jin Ya felt that this person was a bit shameless, so he turned around and said in a bad tone: "Second Master Song, what else do you want?"
Song Lao Er finally softened his tone.
"I'm not anxious or angry, why did you leave?"
Jin Ya saw through his eagerness to use the money and simply told him the truth.
"Master Song is in a hurry to sell these houses, so I'm afraid the prices have to be kept down. Otherwise, even if you search all the brokers in the capital, no one will be able to sell them to you!"
If someone wants to take over the Song family, this shop cannot be sold immediately. Jin Ya is not panicking, and even hopes that Song Lao Er will try to change a few teeth. Anyway, he has had enough of being a grandson.
"Lower the price? ...How much lower?"
"At least it should be this much cheaper!" Jin Ya raised two fingers.
"Twenty taels! That's too much!"
"It's two hundred taels!"
Song Lao Er was dumbfounded: "You...you are not kidding? How can the price be so low! I think the price of this shop was quite high back then."
Jin Ya's mouth twitched. It's your fault for being such a dishonest person and offending others. You deserve it.
"Second Master Song also knew it was at the beginning? It's not easy to sell now. Second Master can't make a decision. Why don't you go back and think about it again?"
Song Lao Er gritted his teeth and said, "Two hundred taels, this is the lowest! You can't let me get any cheaper!"
Jin Ya showed a professional fake smile: "Second Master, go back and wait for my good news."
Song Laosan soon received news from Zhang Baiwan. After receiving the letter, he called Qing Ping'an's son.
"Fulai, go to Mr. Zhang's house and ask him to find someone to buy this shop for me."
Fulai is young, has slightly dark skin, and has a pair of particularly bright eyes, but he speaks little and is efficient.
He responded and turned around and ran away.
Soon, under Jin Ya's witness, the shop was completely open to the public, and the owner of the shop was changed.
Holding a few hundred taels, Song Laoer felt inexplicably angry.
"Master Song, don't forget what we agreed on at the beginning..."
Jin Ya rubbed his hands, hinting that it was time to pay his reward. Song Lao Er unhappily pulled out a ten-liang silver note, speaking casually as if dismissing a beggar.
"for you."
Jin Ya's face turned unfriendly as he glanced at the ten taels and said, "This is different from the number we originally agreed on."
"You don't want it? If you don't want it, you can save money. I'm selling it at such a low price, and you're still complaining to me. I'm lucky to give you ten taels."
"Second Master, are you planning to go back on your word? We agreed that no matter how much you sell, you'll get 10% of the final proceeds. You should pay me fifty taels."
The ten-liang silver note in front of him fell from Song Laoer's hand like a piece of waste paper, swaying and landing at Jin Ya's feet.
"Whether you want it or not, I'll give you this much. What can you do about it?" Song Lao Er said with a gloomy face, "I'm an official, and you're just an ordinary person with no power or influence. I advise you to be more sensible."
Jin Ya's expression remained calm, and he even bent down to pick up the ten-liang silver note. "Thank you, Second Master, for the reward."
Song Lao Er snorted coldly and turned away.
As he turned around, Jin Ya's smile completely disappeared, and his eyes became indescribably ferocious and cold.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "We'll see."
Song Lao Er took the silver and invited his colleagues to a nice meal at a restaurant. As the guest of honor today, Lord Li from the top leadership was very servile and he accepted the menu.
"Master Li, I'm your host today, so please don't be polite."
Lord Li glanced at him and suddenly laughed out loud: "Well, well, well, I've long seen that Lord Song is a pillar of the country and will achieve great things sooner or later. Today, it seems to be true. But..."
"That's what."
Lord Li: "It's just that the reaction is not fast enough. In officialdom, it is very important to react quickly. Lord Song, do you think this is the truth?"
Knowing that the other party was pointing fingers at him, and that it had taken so long to host the event to build relationships, Song Lao Er nodded and bowed, "Master Li is right."
Lord Li looked at him with a smile, then reached out and patted him on the face twice, "This young man is teachable."
Two slaps in the face. Song Lao Er had never suffered such humiliation before.
Being humiliated like this. In front of so many people!
He endured it again and again, and only after tasting the blood on the tip of his tongue did he say, "In the future, whatever Lord Li says, I will definitely remember it in my heart."
The performance was going on upstairs, and the people below were laughing and making noises, their eyes vaguely casting towards the two people talking at the top. Some people echoed, looking at Song Lao Er with eyes full of mockery.
Lord Li was in high spirits and with a wave of his hand, he ordered all the signature dishes of the restaurant and also ordered some top-quality wine.
Song Lao Er only felt pain in his body and sat on a chair, drinking to drown his sorrows.
Suddenly, someone touched his arm. He turned his head and looked. Sitting next to him was Lord Liao.
"Master Song, the wine and food are wonderful, but it's missing something. What do you think?"
He gave me a look with a half-smile.
Song Lao Er looked forward and saw that although Lord Li was still smiling, the smile was very faint.
His heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Master Liao, what advice do you have?"
Lord Liao was an old man, having been in the service for five years. He stroked his beard with a very experienced look and said, "I dare not give you any advice. Fine wine and delicious food, of course, need beautiful women by your side to make the most of it. What do you say, Lord Song?"
Song Laoer's heart skipped a beat.
I still bit the bullet and called the waiter over, explaining my intention. The waiter quickly said, "Please wait a moment, sir. I will go and call mother."
The woman called "Mom" quickly entered the box. She was wearing pink. She looked around first, and soon her eyes fell on Lord Li. She greeted him with a smile.
"Oh, Master Li, it's been a while since you've been here. Gui'er misses you so much, she keeps talking to me about you."
It looked like a regular customer. As Song Lao Er observed, he heard Master Li say expertly, "Gui'er, that Gui'er? Is there a new girl here? Pretty and clean?"
My mother understood instantly and waved her handkerchief. "Yes, yes, yes, it's what Lord Li asked for. I will satisfy him even if it costs me my life."
This was an exaggeration, but it really amused Lord Li.
He reached out and pinched his mother's face, which was already wrinkled. "Sweet talk, hurry up and call them over."
Mom nodded, and quickly walked out, twisting her waist and swinging her hips.
After a while, a girl in a blue skirt walked in with her head lowered.
She looked nervous, and when she looked closely, her shoulders trembled slightly.
She walked up to Lord Li and said, "Greetings, Lord Li. I am Xiaoyue."
