After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband
Chapter 34 Restaurant

Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Restaurant

The three people, Prince NanAn, the Heir of Marquis Beining, and the Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo Mansion, looked at each other.

Whether to be robbed or not, such a big matter still requires some discussion.

"Isn’t it a bit too casual to just get robbed without any resistance?"

"What if we resist and Brother Chen coughs up blood and faints, who will be responsible?"

"..."

"Alright, then no resistance."

All four unanimously decided not to resist.

And decided each person would be robbed of twelve thousand five hundred taels, adding up to fifty thousand taels for the four together.

Su Jin, "..."

Xie Jingchen, "..."

Su Jin looked at Xie Jingchen.

There was some envy in her eyes.

Envying that he had such good brothers.

Even though they’re usually a bit mocking, they’ll stand up in critical times. Take the Heir of Marquis Beining, for example, he was robbed of twelve thousand five hundred taels, and two thousand were borrowed from Prince NanAn...

Robbed after borrowing money—

Su Jin was speechless.

The decision to be robbed was thus settled.

The money was ready; next was buying the shop.

Xingxing couldn’t wait to go in and ask about the price.

But as she passed by Chu Shun, Chu Shun stopped her.

Xingxing looked at him.

"Do you know your master-in-law is rich?" Chu Shun asked quietly.

"Master-in-law has no money," Xingxing said.

The Heir of Marquis Beining laughed, "You might not know, but he is indeed rich, richer than all of us combined."

"Master-in-law really has no money," Xingxing said.

"How can you be so sure?"

"I’m sure, my lady has long robbed him clean, over sixty thousand taels, more than all of you combined," Xingxing said crisply.

Chu Shun, "..."

Prince NanAn, "..."

The Heir of Marquis Beining, "..."

The Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo Mansion, "..."

Watching Xingxing run into the tavern.

The four couldn’t believe it.

Even the spouse beside you is not spared!

They thought, as brothers, they should share fortunes and hardships, turns out Brother Chen thought the same—

"I thought he was eating noodles on the street for the mood, turns out he was eating on the street because he ran out of money," Chu Shun said sorrowfully.

Prince NanAn patted his shoulder, "Just pretend eating for the mood. We without money should also visit noodle stands often."

Chu Shun, "..."

Inside the tavern, Xingxing asked the shopkeeper how much he was willing to sell for.

The shopkeeper flatly refused.

"Not for sale!"

Xingxing frowned slightly.

Looking at the shopkeeper for a while without speaking.

She was only good at robbing, not at negotiating sales; what should she say next?

"Go, go, go, don’t keep me from counting the accounts," the shopkeeper said irritably.

Xingxing’s temper flared.

She raised her hand and slammed it on the counter, frightening the shopkeeper into a start.

The shopkeeper called the attendant to throw Xingxing out.

An attendant came over but didn’t dare drag Xingxing, instead pulled the shopkeeper into the back room.

"What’s this?" The shopkeeper shook off the attendant’s hand with displeasure.

The attendant hurriedly said, "That maid is a bandit from Feihu Village on Qingyun Mountain."

The shopkeeper’s face changed.

The attendant relayed the scene they just witnessed outside the tavern to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper’s brow furrowed like a twist, his expression grave.

"Are they trying to kill the chicken to scare the monkey?"

The attendant nodded repeatedly.

Even Prince NanAn and the others got robbed, let alone them.

The plan was to buy the shop and sell charcoal; if they bought the surrounding shops, their tavern business would not only remain lukewarm, but doing the charcoal business, which is dirty and messy, would make the tavern business worse.

If they got pelted with rotten eggs at night, the tavern might have to close down.

At that time, even if they wanted to sell the tavern, they wouldn’t find a buyer.

The shopkeeper weighed his options.

When he came out, he heard Xingxing say to Su Jin, "The shopkeeper doesn’t want to sell the tavern, should we ask next door?"

The shopkeeper quickly laughed and approached, "It’s not that I don’t want to sell, but the tavern belongs to the owner. Such a big decision can’t be made by a mere employee like me. I’ve already sent the attendant to ask. Please go upstairs and have some tea, there’ll be an answer soon."

With a very good attitude.

Su Jin and Xie Jingchen went upstairs.

After waiting for a short while.

The attendant returned.

The owner agreed to sell the tavern.

After a not-so-dramatic and not-so-negotiated negotiation, the shop was sold.

When the shopkeeper named the price—

Xingxing said nervously, "Miss, do you want to reconsider? Buying a shop for charcoal selling for sixty thousand taels is not worth it."

"Although the money was robbed, spending it still hurts a bit."

The shopkeeper, "...!!!"

He hadn’t even named the price!

Already got a hard slam on him!

Can’t someone even name a price?!

After a fierce mental struggle.

The shopkeeper, face ashen, accepted the price.

"Sixty thousand taels it is, we’ll take everything from the tavern with us," the shopkeeper said painfully.

Su Jin, "..."

Xie Jingchen, "..."

So it’s purchased so quickly?

All that time spent sipping tea thinking about how to haggle—

The deal was closed with silver and goods squared.

With the tavern’s house and land deeds in her hands, Su Jin was grinning ear to ear.

As she exited the tavern, she was splashed with cold water.

The news that she and Xie Jingchen had jointly robbed Prince NanAn and the others spread quickly.

Passersby nearby made a wide berth around them.

Su Jin, "..."

Xie Jingchen, "..."

Since leaving the private room, Xingxing had a nagging feeling something was wrong.

When she got outside, she remembered.

She looked at Su Jin.

With a puzzled face.

"Miss, why did we rob money to buy the shop, and not just rob the shop directly?" Xingxing asked.

Su Jin, "..."

Xie Jingchen, "..."

The robbery was a joke.

This maid committed a real robbery.

Behind them, the shopkeeper and the owner stumbled down the stairs, nearly tripping.

They didn’t dare take the front door and sneaked out like thieves through the back of the tavern.

The things they wanted to take were all left behind.

Initially feeling a loss selling at sixty thousand taels, it turns out the bandits just didn’t switch tracks!

A shopkeeper always worried about being scolded—

Unprecedentedly received great praises and got promoted by the owner.

Back to the ones who were robbed, the Heir of Marquis Beining and others returned to their homes empty-handed.

Once back.

The Heir of Marquis Beining was hit with a few feather dusters by his father, making him jump up and down.

"Dad, what are you doing? At least give a warning before hitting," the Heir of Marquis Beining shouted.

Marquis Beining was fuming, panting heavily.

Usually doting on their son, the Marchioness Beining didn’t stop him this time.

Not resisting when robbed was one thing; borrowing money to get robbed was utterly infuriating them!

The Heir of Marquis Beining protested, "Wasn’t it you who told me to learn more from Young Master Xie?"

One line brought Marquis Beining to a standstill.

He threw the feather duster on the ground.

"The Eldest Young Master of Duke Zhen has gone astray, are you going to follow suit?!"

"From today on, you’ll have your monthly salary docked for three months. Reflect well at home!"

The Heir of Marquis Beining, "...!!!"

He was counting on his monthly salary for daily expenses.

Fortunately, before returning, they figured out how to deal with being robbed.

He looked at his father and said, "Dad, Young Master Xie only turned to robbery because he was broke. If I have no money, I’ll also feel the urge."

The Marchioness Beining quickly added, "What our son says makes sense."

Marquis Beining frowned.

Finally—

The Heir of Marquis Beining’s monthly salary was doubled.

Not just him.

Chu Shun, Prince NanAn, and the Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo Mansion also had their monthly salaries doubled.
