  Chapter 37 Deal

  The matter is settled, Xiao Lian will take a step first.

  The young man deliberately slowed down and asked the clerk, "What kind of person is that girl Kou who wants to buy a bookstore?"

  The buddy immediately expressed his first impression: "You are so beautiful, and you have a kind heart!"

  The young man had a strange look on his face.

  What he wants to ask is not about looks. As for kindness, is it kindness to buy a shop and make a difference of 10,000 taels at home?

  The buddy said that Miss Kou was kind-hearted, because she remembered Xinyou's giving the boy money in the morning, and when she saw the boss's expression was wrong, she also reacted.

   But what you say can’t be slapped in the face. The boy scratched his head and lowered his voice: "Boss, haven't you heard the rumors about Miss Kou?"

  The young man raised his eyebrows.

   "Miss Kou, the cousin of the Shaoqing Mansion!"

  As soon as he mentioned the cousin girl in the Shaoqing Mansion, the young man immediately picked up the number: "The cousin girl who almost had an accident because of a frightened horse?"

   "That's right, that's the cousin girl."

  The young man touched his chin and murmured, "Could it be that the rumors are true?"

  He couldn't help being curious about the rumored cousin girl, so he hurried to Qingsong Bookstore.

  In the bookstore, the butler of the Shaoqing Mansion was asking about the business situation in the past year. The shopkeeper was afraid of scaring away the buyers who had finally come to the door, so he could only practice Tai Chi.

   Fortunately, at this time, the voice of the buddy came: "The boss is here."

  The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly welcomed the young man in, and introduced Xinyou and the housekeeper to him.

  The young man's eyes fell on Xin You.

  The little guy is right. This Kou girl is indeed beautiful, and her lacquered eyes are so calm because of her calmness. It is completely impossible to imagine that she will send the maid to find him privately to make money.

   "I heard that the girl wants to buy Qingsong Bookstore."

"yes."

   "If you buy the bookstore, what will the girl do in the future?"

   "I will continue to open a bookstore in the future. My grandfather once opened a bookstore, but it is a pity that he did not open it again after the old man passed away. Now that I am old, I want to have something to do. Choosing to open a bookstore is also to inherit my grandfather's behest."

   "The girl has a good idea." The young man nodded.

  The buyer who takes over can continue to open the bookstore, and the old man can save him from scolding him underground.

   "How much does the club plan to sell?"

  The young man was silent for a moment, and announced a number: "Twenty-two thousand taels."

   With a bang, the shopkeeper hurriedly went to help the overturned teacup, and then looked at the butler of the Shaoqing Mansion, who was making a move with him.

   "Is the owner selling it in good faith at this price?" the butler asked with a trembling face while holding the teacup firmly.

   Twenty-two thousand taels, why not grab it!

  Worried that the cousin girl didn't understand, the housekeeper winked at Xin You.

  Xin You frowned: "It's too expensive."

  The butler secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

   "Twenty thousand taels, okay?"

  The young man nodded without hesitation: "OK."

   "Then make a written receipt and pay the deposit first."

"good."

   "Wait!" The butler jumped up, his face flushed, "You can't buy it at this price!"

  Xin You and the young man looked at him together.

   "Biao girl, this price is too expensive, far exceeding the market price."

   "Far above the market price?" Xin You blinked.

  The butler looked serious: "That's right, let alone 20,000 taels, even 10,000 taels is a bit high!"

  How can you be so black-hearted!

   "Is that so?" Xin You looked at the young man.

  The young man looked indifferent: "One thousand taels is not high, will I sell it?"

  Xin You couldn't help but nodded.

  The butler's face turned dark: "Young girl, don't be coaxed, you can buy two bookstores like this for 20,000 taels."

  The young man sneered: "Then please do what you want."

   "Cousin girl, let's go!"

  The housekeeper took two steps and turned his head, only to find that Xin You was still sitting firmly.

   "Cousin girl?"

  Xin You smiled: "Why don't Butler Duan go first."

   Butler:?

  The housekeeper had no choice but to walk back, and persuaded patiently: "Cousin girl, you want to buy a shop, we can talk slowly, if this one is not suitable, change to another one—"

   "I think this one is very suitable, I just want to buy a bookstore."

  The butler had bulging veins on his forehead. If it wasn't because of his status, he would have wished to drag him away: "Cousin girl, that's not how business is discussed. Even if you like bookstores, this bookstore is not the only one in Beijing."

   "But there are only two bookstores near Guozijian. I think the business of the bookstore opposite is very good, and they won't sell it for 20,000 taels."

   "Why does the cousin girl insist on buying it near the Imperial College?" The butler felt a pain in his heart when he was blocked by the cousin girl's straw bag.

  Xin You looked confident and confident: "Aren't the two cousins ​​studying in the Imperial College, so they are closer so that they can take care of me. Butler Duan will just check the documents for me, and I don't have to worry about the rest."

  How could the housekeeper agree, and said anxiously: "Cousin girl, you really want to spend so much money to buy such a bookstore, the old slave can't explain to the old lady when he goes back."

   "My grandmother supports me in buying a bookstore."

   "I don't support you spending 20,000 taels to buy a bookstore!" The butler said out in a moment of urgency.

  Xin You showed confusion: "But the money to buy the bookstore is my own."

  As soon as the words came out, the boss, the shopkeeper, and the waiter all looked at the butler.

  The butler was taken aback for a moment.

  Xin You saw it and sneered secretly.

  Looking at the housekeeper like this, she never thought that Miss Kou has a family fortune. And the attitude of a housekeeper is not the expression of the true attitude of the Shaoqing Mansion.

   "Grandmother said a long time ago that she will keep the money left to me by my parents first, and it will be my dowry in the future. Since it is mine, I want to spend a small part of it to buy a bookstore. Do I still need Steward Duan's consent?"

   "This—" Under the meaningful gazes of the boss and the others, the butler suddenly thought of those gossip.

Many people gossip that the Shaoqing Mansion is greedy for Miss Biao’s family wealth, if he is tough and prevents Biao Girl from buying the bookstore, and something bad will spread from the people in the bookstore later, the old lady will not praise him for saving money when buying the bookstore , Instead, he would blame him for not doing a good job and damaging the reputation of the Shaoqing Mansion.

  The butler had a little calculation in mind.

  Xin You raised her lips: "Grandmother loves me the most. I am happy to buy something I like, and she will be happy for me too. If Butler Duan is worried that the purchase is too expensive and grandma says that, then there is no need for it."

  The housekeeper fell silent.

  Xin You smiled at the young man: "Then make a written receipt, I brought a deposit of 2,000. By the way, do you need to make two copies of the written receipt?"

  The young man heard Xin You's accentuated tone on the word "two". Since Xiao Lian's words came first, he naturally understood what it meant.

   Normally, there are two copies of the contract. After the signature is postponed, one copy goes to the seller and the other goes to the buyer. The two contracts that Xinyou mentioned meant two contracts with different prices.

   "Yes, two copies." The young man nodded with a smile.

   It turned out that the rumor was true, and all the wealth of this cousin girl was in the hands of her grandmother.

   is also a poor man.

  The contract was quickly written, and Xin You handed the contract to the housekeeper: "I don't understand these things, butler Duan will hold my eyes for me."

  The housekeeper took over the contract with a numb face, and Xin You asked the young man, "Can the master take me to the book printing shop behind?"

   "Of course. Shopkeeper Hu, please accompany Butler Duan for me."

  Xin You and the young man took the opportunity of going to the back to finalize another contract, and the young man couldn't help but ask, "Miss Kou, aren't you afraid that I will speak out?"

  Xin You smiled: "I believe that smart people will not do things that harm others and benefit themselves."

  The young man also smiled, and cupped his hands: "The Qingsong Bookstore, I will entrust the new owner from now on."

  Xin You replied: "I won't let my old club down."
