43 Looting A Burning House (1)

“Mother, let’s go and take a look. It won’t be a big deal even if we’re late!”

Er Bao was also moved by what he heard. He turned his head and looked at Mo Ruyue with a burning gaze. Anyway, they were initially here to buy things. They could not possibly go back empty-handed.

“Don’t worry, we’ll buy things. Since we’ve spent a tael of silver for food, let’s eat first. ”

Mo Ruyue still had a calm and unmoving appearance. She was indeed moved, but she was thinking about another thing in her heart. This idea was also impromptu and could not stand up to scrutiny yet. She was also holding an attitude of giving it a try and was ready to go and inquire.

The mother and son duo quickly finished the food on the table. Since they had already paid for the food, they stood up and walked out of Guanglai Building.

Mo Ruyue was not in a hurry to buy groceries. She had planned to buy some large furniture. Now, besides a wooden table, a few chairs, and a bedside cabinet, there was not much furniture in the house. Even if she had the money, she had no place to put it.

But now, she could buy them for the new house as it was large and had more rooms. Besides, it was impossible for Qin Shi to leave her furniture for them. Therefore, she would not be buying them in vain.

However, after hearing the words of the two people, she immediately brought Er Bao to the grocery store.

It was afternoon now, and there were not many people at the entrance of the grocery store. As soon as Mo Ruyue entered, she saw that there were not many goods left on the shelf. Er Bao, who was beside her, sighed. The expression on his face looked very depressed. He seemed to be regretting that they did not come earlier.

Mo Ruyue saw a man in his forties asking his staff to clear the shelves. She knew that he was the shopkeeper of the grocery store, so she went forward.

The man saw her and looked over. He said to her, “Dear customer, we don’t have anything else to sell. Take a look, this store is almost empty.”

“It’s fine. I have some use for the rest of the things, so it’s not like I’m returning empty-handed if I pick a few. ”

Mo Ruyue had already walked to the shopkeeper’s side as she spoke. She looked at him and said in a low voice, “Actually, I want to do some other business with you, Sir,”

“Other business? What kind of business can I do with you, Lady?”

The shopkeeper shook his head and didn’t take Mo Ruyue’s words seriously. This woman didn’t look like she was here to buy anything. She didn’t carry a basket or anything. She couldn’t be here to inquire about some news, right?

He thought about it this way and felt that it made sense. He immediately became instinctively wary of Mo Ruyue. He didn’t expect to hear Mo Ruyue ask him in an even lower voice, “Sir, have you sold this shop yet?”

“This has nothing to do with you, right? We’ve sold out all the goods in our shop, so you’d better leave quickly!”

The shopkeeper immediately felt that he had guessed correctly. The woman in front of him must have been sent by his competitor to inquire about information. His grocery store’s business was quite good. There were not just one or two people staring at this corner of the land. They must be taking advantage of this opportunity to loot!

He waved his hands repeatedly and chased Mo Ruyue out like a ferocious beast.

“I sincerely came to find the shopkeeper to do business. Even if the business doesn’t work out, there’s no need to drive people away like this, right?”

Mo Ruyue was not a person who would take it lying down. Although the shopkeeper had his reasons for being vigilant, she could not bear to be wronged for no reason. As she spoke, she took out the silver notes from her bosom and waved them in front of the shopkeeper, letting him notice the amount.

“You want to buy my shop for only a hundred taels of silver? That’s not going to happen.. ”

When the shopkeeper saw the two silver notes, he still did not relax his vigilance. Although this woman could take out such a large sum of money at once, he did not dare to fall for it easily. What if someone was testing his bottom line? Although he was in need of money, it was not something that a mere hundred silver taels could dismiss.

“There has to be a price, right? Don’t you plan to sell your shop for money? If you do, why did you stop the business when I only asked?”

Mo Ruyan’s temper flared up. If she couldn’t buy this shop, then so be it. But this person didn’t even say a price and said the deal was terrible. Who was he looking down on?

“You’re so unreasonable, Lady. Doing business requires mutual consent. What’s wrong with me for not wanting to do business with you? Hurry up and leave, or I will report it to the authorities!”

The shopkeeper’s attitude was getting worse. He was now certain that Mo Ruyue had been sent here to scout for information. No matter what she said or did, he wouldn’t believe her. He just wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible and end the matter.

Mo Ruyue sneered. “I’ve never heard of a business being chased out. Sure. No one can force you if you don’t want to do this business.”

She would have solved things with her fists if it were with her previous personality. But now, to not set a bad example for the babies, she often “convinced people with virtue”, which was really against her nature.

After she finished speaking, she pulled Er Bao and walked out of the door. At this moment, her fist was already itching to move. If she did not leave now, this shopkeeper would easily face a bloody disaster.

When the mother and son duo had walked far away, the shop assistant at the side came over and said to the shopkeeper, “Master, that woman seems to really want to do business with you. She previously did business with the young master of Guanglai Building. It is said that she signed a long contract with him.”

“Do you know where the big tiger that the young master brought back last time came from? I heard that he bought it from that woman. Master, do you think she’s short on money?”

“What? Then why didn’t you say so earlier!”

The shopkeeper was stunned and immediately rebuked him in annoyance.

If what the shop assistant said was true, the woman just now might really want to buy this shop. It was said that women were soft-hearted when it came to doing business, so he might be able to sell this shop for a few more dollars.

Although he would not have to worry about selling his shop in the end, the few people who had expressed their intention to buy it had offered extremely low prices. Apparently, they saw that he was in a difficult situation, so they deliberately wanted to take advantage of it.

“This… I was just there just now. It wasn’t appropriate for me to say those words.”

The shop assistant originally wanted to curry favor in front of the shopkeeper, but he didn’t expect his flattery to lead him into more trouble. Not only did he not get praised, but he also got scolded.

Feeling wronged, he suggested again, “Why don’t I go and bring that woman back before she goes far?”

“Bullsh*t! Did you not look at her just now? She looked as if she wanted to eat me alive. If I call her back, it will seem like I’m in the wrong. Won’t she suppress me then? What kind of a bad idea is this? Why aren’t you packing up?”

The shopkeeper was like a powder keg that had been lit up. He once again vented all his anger on the little shop assistant. After cursing, he walked to the street and looked left and right, but he couldn’t find Mo Ruyue and her son.
