721 The Fight for the thousand-year-old Ginseng
“Return?” when Lin yuelan heard this, she said mockingly, ” boss zhou, I clearly won the bid with 100000 taels of silver, but you’re making it sound like I got it for free. Could it be that boss zhou’s intention is to give the girl I bought with 100000 taels of silver to his highness the third prince for free?”
Zhou Cingfa was a little embarra.s.sed by lin yuelan’s words, but he could only suppress his embarra.s.sment at this moment. He lowered his body and said, “Miss, since you understand what I mean, why do you have to say it out loud? ”
Lin yuelan chuckled and shook her head. she asked, “Mr. Zhou, I just have a question that I don’t understand. please answer it for me! ”
Zhou Xingfa said, ” please! ”
Lin yuelan said, ” boss Zhou, since you want me to waste these 100000 taels of silver and then give the person to the third Prince for free, it’s not a bad idea. but,”
!!lin yuelan’s tone immediately turned sharp, “I don’t want to waste this money. So, boss zhou, you see, your auction house took my money, right? How about you return all the money now and I’ll send her over? ”
After hearing Lin yuelan’s last sentence, ah nu’s heart suddenly tightened. Her eyes flashed with disappointment and despair, and she even seemed to be at a loss.
She didn’t understand why the person who had just said that she would give her freedom suddenly wanted to give her away to someone else.
Perhaps sensing the uneasiness and despair in ah nu’s heart, lin yuelan secretly gave her a look, telling her to calm down.
Ah Nu received lin yuelan’s gaze and the meaning she conveyed.
Although she still didn’t understand why Lin yuelan was doing this, her intuition told her that it would be fine as long as she trusted the person in front of her.
Zhou Xingfa’s expression froze when he heard Lin yuelan’s words. Then, he said awkwardly, ” Sir, since the auction house has already delivered the goods, it will be a little difficult to return the money.”
“But boss Zhou, didn’t you just say that you wanted me to give her to His Highness the third Prince for free? Since that’s the case, the auction house has to compensate for my loss. Boss zhou, don’t you think so? Boss Zhou, you don’t want to be in a losing business, but I don’t want to do a losing business either.”
In any case, Lin yuelan’s intention was that she could surrender Ah Nu to someone, but the auction house must return the 100000 taels of silver.
Zhou Xingfa was left speechless by lin yuelan’s reb.u.t.tal.
A deal of 100000 taels of silver was a huge deal to him.
He had bought this slave girl from a foreigner for fifty taels.
50 taels of silver were turned into 100000 taels of silver in one go. That was basically the net profit of his auction house in one year.
Even he had never thought that the profit of this female slave would reach such a high level.
In his estimation, this slave girl could be sold for ten thousand taels at most.
But he didn’t know if he was lucky or unlucky. This deal was big, but it was a pity.
Now, if he were really asked to return the 100000 taels of silver, his heart would ache.
Looking at Zhou Xingfa’s expression, Lin yuelan looked downstairs again. After a short rest, the auction for the thousand-year ginseng was about to start.
Lin yuelan said, ” boss Zhou, I’m not in a hurry. You, on the other hand, can always come and find me in this room. However, it will be after the auction of the thousand-year ginseng.”
Zhou Xingfa didn’t know what to do. Since Lin yuelan had given him a way out, he would just go along with it.
Zhou Xingfa cupped his hands and said, ” alright then. Miss, I’ll come again after the auction.”
After Zhou Xingfa left, Lin yuelan’s eyes turned cold. She frowned and asked, ” guard song, is this Zhou Xingfa really grandpa’s good friend? Zhou Xingfa is obviously a profit-seeking businessman. Is he really sincere in befriending grandpa?”
Previously, Lin Xuming had reported that there were only two or three servants serving grandfather in the West courtyard. There were no guards to protect him. After Lin Xuming and Lin Xuxing dealt with the people sent by Yuwen feiye, there were six guards in the courtyard.
The purpose of Zhou Xingfa’s actions was very simple. He wanted her grandfather’s enemy to come and find him. Then, if he died in an accident or something, that thousand-year-old ginseng would be his. The ginseng was worth at least three hundred thousand taels.
