Chapter 440: Chapter 440: Is it not enough of a bargain? Chapter 440: Chapter 440: Is it not enough of a bargain? He really wanted to remind his family’s master, but unfortunately, the master had all his attention on Miss Lin and didn’t look his way.

Hearing Lin Caisang’s words, the landlord’s eyes brightened. He scrutinized Lin Caisang closely, then took a good look at Ya Molian, calculating in his heart.

Both of them were young, and they seemed like they had just left home without any experience. Maybe he could fleece them for a considerable chunk of change.

“Sir and Miss, I bought this wine house for eight thousand taels. What do you think if I sell it to you at the original price?” He suggested.

“Eight thousand taels?”

Lin Caisang chuckled, her fingertip slowly tracing a nearby pillar as she shook her head.

“Boss, I genuinely want to buy this wine house. You should give me a fair price. Asking for the moon in price doesn’t seem like good business practice,” she suggested.

The boss wasn’t happy when he heard this, and his smile disappeared.

“Miss, how can you say that? Me, asking for the moon? This is a very reasonable price. If you feel it’s expensive, why not inquire about the price of other wine houses?”

“Of course, I can’t afford the other wine houses.” Lin Caisang shrugged her shoulders.

“But your wine house, eight thousand taels, isn’t that asking for the moon? If you don’t understand, I can explain it to you.”

“You….”

The boss was incredibly frustrated.

Did this young lady have some sort of extraordinarily discerning eyes?

“If you have something to say, then I’m all ears.”

He wanted to see what kind of wise words this young woman had.

“OK, you asked me to say it.”

Lin Caisang turned to Ya Molian and winked playfully, then turned her gaze back to the wine house.

“Firstly, let’s compare your wine house with others. They all have a century-old history, a stable customer base, solid connections. But what about yours? No need for me to go into detail, right?

For a new wine house to establish itself among so many established ones, it either needs connections to draw guests in, or it needs money to make its name. Does your wine house have either of these things?

Given these factors, I think your eight-thousand-tael price should be reduced by two thousand taels at least. And I think I’m being pretty reasonable with that.”

“You….”

The boss was dumbfounded. He wanted to refute her, but he didn’t deny that Lin Caisang hit the nail on the head. He was speechless.

“Don’t say anything until I finish.”

Seeing that the landlord wanted to interrupt her, Lin Caisang raised her hand to stop him.

“Now let’s calculate the six-thousand-tael price of your wine house. According to what you said earlier, the rent is one hundred taels per month. Ha ha.” She chuckled.

“What’s wrong with a rent of one hundred taels? Isn’t it affordable?”

The boss didn’t understand. He thought that a hundred-tael rent was already a low rate. Could there possibly be something wrong with that?

“A hundred taels rent is reasonable, but, I’d like to ask, on the most prosperous street in Yejun, which wine house only charges a hundred taels rent a month?”

Lin Caisang hit him back with a question.

“I believe even the small shops here charge more than a hundred taels rent per month. Isn’t that right?” Lin Caisang asked again.
