Chapter 114.2 - Business is business

After half a moment, she raised a brow and spoke calmly, “So, what does that have to do with my Jinsi building?”

“En?” Ruan Xiuren froze, looking blankly at the girl in front of him.

Lou Qingwu’s mouth still held laughter as her eyes deepened.

They were so calm but when they looked at him, he felt pressured.

Ruan Xiuren felt like his collar was tightening as he couldn’t help but tug at him.

The girl spoke too plainly.

He suddenly realised, this Boss Mu wasn’t easy to talk to at all.

She was waiting for this, this whole time.

His body suddenly felt heavy, the person in front of him … was a fox.

He underestimated her.

After half a moment, he laughed but it was bitter.

He, Ruan Xiuren, had entered the business world for half of his life.

But he didn’t know that he’d be flipped by this young girl.

No matter whether or not it was all accidental, he could only admit that it was his loss.

“Boss Mu is right, I was asking for too much. I don’t know what Boss Mu would want, so that I can have a few more days to exchange?”

Lou Qingwu heard this and finally, was satisfied.

“Ruan family head is a smart man. This can’t be blamed on me, after all, business is business. I have to look after such a large Jinsi building so I can’t let myself eat too much of a loss. After all, an extra delayed day is an extra day of losses so who would pay for that? It couldn’t just be all on me, right? The problem after all, didn’t come from my Jinsi building.”

“Yes, Boss Mu is right, the losses will all be paid out by my Ruan family.”

“Then I can rest assured.”

“But I don’t know how much Boss Mu would want our Ruan family to pay?”

Lou Qingwu smiled but didn’t speak.

She picked up her te and elegantly took a sip.

Ruan Xiuren grew anxious, he suddenly had an ominous feeling.

In an instant, Lou Qingwu put down her tea.

The cup was placed on the ground and made a light clinking sound, “This really is a high grade Pu Erh tea.”

At the same time, her eyes fell on shopkeeper Jin.

Shopkeeper Jin nodded and put up three fingers, “Ruan family head, this is my master’s meaning, it’s this sum.”

Ruan Xiuren’s hand gripped his cup, “Three … thousand gold?”

Lou Qingwu heard this and her lips curled, unable to help but laugh.

This laughter made Ruan Xiuren’s smile change.

Shopkeeper Jin interjected, “Not three thousand gold, but 30% of the gold devices in this transaction.”

Hearing that, Ruan Xiuren felt like he’d gone through a storm, he couldn’t help but suck in a cold breath.

Jinsi building wanted a total of 50,000 so 30% as compensation would be … 15,000 gold!

The housekeeper behind Ruan Xiuren’s legs’ weakened, he nearly fell down.

This was probably the most pitiful this Ruan family had been, after getting caught.

Lou Qingwu coldly looked at him, looking at his colourless face, “What, Ruan family head doesn’t agree? If you don’t agree, that’s okay. If you can’t exchange the goods on the day that we agreed on, then we can only follow the contract and deal with it how it was written out.”

Dealing with this according to the contract would mean that Ruan family’s golden stores’ reputation would be completely destroyed.

That would be an even worse disaster.
