Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“I can write the contract now and we can go to the government office immediately. If you want to go home early to accompany your wife, which buyer can be faster than me? I’m already here.”

“Besides, if you miss me, are you planning to sell this shop that you’ve worked so hard for many years for 150 taels of silver, or are you going to let this uncle continue to run around for you?”

Shopkeeper Qian was speechless… He could not refute her at all…

Tong Bin was speechless. He did not expect himself to be one of the reasons for this girl.

Shopkeeper Qian gritted his teeth. “Alright, I’ll sell it to you!”

Tong Bin wanted to persuade him a few times, but he could not find a reasonable reason. In the end, he put on a straight face under Shopkeeper Qian’s bow and said that he would reject the buyer for him.

“Don’t regret it!”

Shopkeeper Qian was a kind person and did not immediately urge Xiaoxiao to sign the contract. “Wait three more days. If you don’t change your mind in three days, I’ll accept your money.”

Xiaoxiao agreed happily. Before she left, she thought for a moment and went forward to ask, “Shopkeeper Qian, did you only get this injury recently?”

Shopkeeper Qian looked down at his injuries and said helplessly, “It’s been more than 20 days, but I haven’t recovered. I’m very anxious too.”

Xiaoxiao asked, “Did that uncle buy medicine for you?”

Shopkeeper Qian replied, “That’s right. It’s all thanks to Brother Tong.”

The purchase of the shop started suddenly and ended suddenly as well. Xiaoxiao pretended to be cute and acted cute with Big Brother for an hour before she finally made him promise not to mention it in front of their parents and Second Brother.

“But how long can you hide it?”

Xiaoxiao hugged his arm and shook it. “Until the day the transfer is made. By then, what’s done will be done. Can Father and Mother still make me throw away the 50 taels?”

“Besides, Brother has to have confidence in your sister. How can I not earn a mere 200 taels of silver?”

She was confident. The food in the space could ripen in a month or so. Even if she sold food, 200 taels was just a matter of points.

Of course, it was a waste to do this. She would not waste points unless she had no choice.

Although Ning Dalang doted on his sister, he was also very worried this time. “Have you thought about what to use this shop for?”

Xiaoxiao nodded. “Yes, but 1 still lack something now.”

There was news of what was lacking the next day. The Shen Family sent someone to tell Xiaoxiao that they had already settled on the milk she wanted and invited her to their residence to discuss it in detail.

As expected of the daughter of the Li Family of Jiangnan, who had shops all over the world. She was very efficient.

Xiaoxiao happily brought the freshly baked sponge cake to the county. Today, Second Brother and Father had already begun to dig the canal. Big Brother accompanied her. There were still a few days left in the stall Second Brother had booked. Her family could not bear to waste it, so they asked Big Brother to bring some pickles to sell when he accompanied her to the county.

Ning Dalang was worried about his sister acting alone. It was not easy for Xiaoxiao to convince her brother to wait for her at the stall. She could not bear to see her brother running around with so many things.

After not coming for a few days, there were really many repeat customers waiting for the Ning Family to set up their stall. Ning Dalang was too busy and was afraid of delaying Xiaoxiao’s business. He thought that it was not far to the county office and there was a main road on the way. Nothing should happen, so he reluctantly agreed.

However, before she went to see Mrs. Shen, Xiaoxiao went to see Shopkeeper Qian to confirm her determination to buy the shop again so that he would not think that she was joking and sell the shop to others.

Seeing that she was insistent, Shopkeeper Qian agreed to go to the county office two days later to transfer the deed as previously agreed. Xiaoxiao had no use for the things in the shop, so Shopkeeper Qian needed some time to get rid of them.

Shopkeeper Qian still did not take Xiaoxiao’s money. He said that he would wait for the day the ownership was transferred and even repeatedly emphasized that the adults in the family had to be present.

Xiaoxiao was caught between laughter and tears. She guessed that he was still worried about her. Perhaps he was worried that she was messing around with her parents’ money.

The shop she wanted was almost decided, so she had to go to the middleman to inform him so that he would not have to work for nothing. She knew all about social favors. The middleman who had received the hard work fee was not dissatisfied at all. He only said, “Continue to look for me if you need anything next time. I’m famous in the county for being honest with both young and old.

I can handle all kinds of transactions. So far, there’s no deal that 1 can’t handle.”

Xiaoxiao was about to leave, but she stopped when she heard this. “Little Brother, do you know Shopkeeper Qian’s bookstore outside the Bowen Academy?”

The middleman pursed his lips. “I know. He wanted me to find a buyer at first, but he suddenly went back on his word for no reason one day. It almost ruined my reputation.”

Xiaoxiao asked, “Did Shopkeeper Qian personally look for you to go back on his word? 1 think his legs aren’t very good.”

The middleman said, “It’s his friend, Tong Bin. However, he said earlier that Master Tong’s words can represent his intentions.”

At this point, he got angry. “At that time, he was so rude. He even told me not to disturb Shopkeeper Qian again because of this. Otherwise, he’ll sue me for disturbing him.”

Xiaoxiao found it strange. “He can sue you for disturbing people just because he says so?”

The young man spat on the ground. “Miss, you might not know this, but Master Tong is a lawyer. He can even say that the dead are alive. I’m just a commoner. How would I dare to offend him? At first, I wanted to ask Shopkeeper Qian, but Master Tong guarded him like he was guarding against thieves! I thought that this was not the only business in the county, so I let it go-”

Xiaoxiao could basically confirm that Tong Bin was deliberately preventing Shopkeeper Qian from selling the shop. If she thought about it boldly, Shopkeeper Qian’s current situation might be Tong Bin’s doing.

Thinking about Shopkeeper Qian’s character and his injuries, she knew that there was something wrong with the ointment that Tong Bin gave him, even without asking the doctor.

However, she did not know how to remind Shopkeeper Qian. After all, she was not familiar with him. Shopkeeper Qian should instinctively trust his friend more.

The middleman still had something to do. After saying that, he left in a hurry. Xiaoxiao was also prepared to continue to the Shen Residence. Her brother would be worried if she delayed for too long.

As she passed by a not-so-busy alley, she suddenly heard a space reminder.

[Master, someone is following you.]

Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and turned around to meet a few pairs of wretched eyes. A few burly men were holding clubs and looking like hooligans. “B*tch, hand over all the silver on you!”

Xiaoxiao sighed. This was the reason why she wanted to work with Mrs. Shen. She had no power or influence. Not to mention opening a shop, she would even be targeted when she bought a shop. Flow annoying.

“Tong Bin sent you here?”

The few of them were stunned and immediately shook their heads. “No, we’re just robbing money.”

Xiaoxiao smiled. “Then why didn’t your first reaction be to ask me who ‘Tong Bin’ is? Moreover, the taste of robbers has changed these days. Instead of robbing rich people, you’re robbing a little peasant girl like me? Your business ability isn’t good.”

As she spoke, she flipped her wrist and the chili powder was ready.

Damn it, they were even despised after leaking information! These thugs decided to give up. “Be good and let me break one of your legs so that you won’t suffer more.”

Xiaoxiao pretended to tremble, but her tone was flat. “Aiya, I’m so scared..”
