Chapter 442: Chapter 442: Let’s Discuss Again Chapter 442: Chapter 442: Let’s Discuss Again Owner: “!!!”

He couldn’t find any fault in her argument, as it perfectly described the current situation of his tavern.

However, this price… he felt he was losing out tremendously.

He couldn’t help but think how he failed to negotiate as shrewdly as this young lady when he initially bought the tavern. If he had, he wouldn’t have been tricked into paying such an enormous sum!

“Owner, what do you say? I’m waiting.” Seeing his hesitation, Lin Caisang urged.

“I…”

The owner opened his mouth, but what could he say?

“Miss, what you said is absolutely correct. However, your price is way too low. You surely wouldn’t have me run a losing business, right? What if you increase it a bit, to say, five thousand?”

“But isn’t all business about gains and losses? Just because you were conned in the past, it doesn’t mean you should try to regain your dignity here, does it?” Lin Caisang retorted, puffing up her cheeks.

“This is my price. Of course, you can choose not to sell to me, I can simply look elsewhere.”

“This…”

She was right. He had been conned and accepted his bad luck. But something didn’t feel right about this.

Speaking of whether to sell or not, he definitely wished to let go of this tavern. Storing it felt like a burden, selling it would at least allow him to recoup some investment. But this price…

He turned his gaze toward Ya Molian.

“Sir, this young lady doesn’t understand the market. As a man, you should be making the decisions. Don’t you agree that my asking price of five thousand is already low…”

“In our household, it’s always the women who make the decisions.”

Before the owner could finish speaking, Ya Molian gave him a side glance and casually threw out a statement.

Owner: “???”

Did this mean he had to bargain with this young lady?

He placed a pitiful expression on his face and turned towards Lin Caisang.

“Miss…”

“Owner, my final price is 3,888. It’s up to you whether to sell or not, but make it quick,” Lin Caisang lifted her eyes towards the owner, speaking her mind.

“This…”

The owner hesitated, for he felt like he was selling off a piece of his own flesh at such a low price. His heart ached.

“I understand.”

Seeing the owner’s pained expression, Lin Caisang immediately showed comprehension on her face.

“Brother Molian, let’s go and take a look at some other stores. Zhe Jue said there are several places available, let’s check them all out.”

“Wait, Miss, let’s discuss it further.”

Upon seeing Lin Caisang ready to leave without further negotiation, the owner rushed to stop her without a second thought.

“Miss, you’re not scaring me, are you? Among the various spacious shops in Yejun, which of them is ever vacant? It’s only my place that’s available.”

His tavern was in a tricky situation, situated neither high nor low, and was squeezed out by the nearby taverns. It’s no longer viable and he had no other choice but to sell such a great location.

“I never said I was looking for a large store. I’m just opening a shop selling dried fruits and snacks. A small place is fine too, plus the price can be much lower.” Lin Caisang responded.

“What?”

Hearing her words, the owner’s face showed absolute bewilderment.

What did he hear? Did he hear wrongly? The lady before him wanted to buy the tavern not to run a tavern but to sell snacks? That’s more like a grocery store.

Running a grocery store requires close to four thousand taels for a storefront, wouldn’t it take many years of business to make that back?

Was this lady a fool? But that couldn’t be. Listening to her haggling over the price of the tavern, she seemed extremely astute.
