Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt

Sun Youwei hesitated for a long time, but finally believed Su Xuqing's judgment and left the shop with her and went to Tianxing Pavilion.

Shen Xuanheng handled matters in the Ministry of Justice during the day, and would return to Tianxing Pavilion at night as Liang Heng. When the two of them arrived, they naturally found nothing. It was still morning, so they naturally couldn't just sit and wait.

Sun Youwei was in a bad mood at the moment, so Su Xuqing asked her to go back first and come back in the evening. Although the effect of the medicine had worn off, Sun Youwei was still very tired, so she got on the carriage and returned home.

Su Xuqing did not walk far after leaving Tianxing Pavilion, but instead walked around the nearby medicine shop.

Sun Youwei is in trouble now, and the opening of the Chamber of Commerce may have to be put on hold. Su Xuqing was originally worried that if the Chamber of Commerce was opened too hastily, she would not have time to prepare the goods. Now that the Chamber of Commerce's affairs have been put on hold, it is a good opportunity to make preparations in advance.

Originally, Sun Youwei planned to build a workshop outside the city to make freckle removal potion specifically for Su Xuqing, but Su Xuqing thought about it and felt that it would be a bit troublesome to run back and forth, so she finally decided to make it at home.

Firstly, it saves costs, and secondly, it is also very convenient.

On the busy bank of West Lake, there is a rather luxurious drugstore. Its beams and pillars, as thick as two people hugging each other, are painted red and look very eye-catching. On the plaque above the door are inscribed three large gold-plated characters "Tong Ren Tang".

Next to the golden signboard, there is a small chess piece swaying in the wind, and on the linen cloth background are four small words "Century-old Store".

Su Xuqing Yijian is a century-old shop, so he felt that this was a good place with good quality and low prices, and at least it wouldn't rip people off.

As he entered the hall, a waiter in a grey shirt came over. He smiled and bowed, saying, "Sir, what can I do for you?"

"Just take a look for yourself, just go about your business."

"Okay, if you need anything, just call me."

After the waiter finished speaking, he went to busy himself with serving other guests.

Su Xuqing looked at the medicinal herbs in the shop with her beautiful eyes. The herbs here were fresh and complete. Some were just picked from the mountains. There were also some precious herbs placed in the grids of golden cloth and silk mats. They were obviously hundreds of years old.

The quality of the medicinal materials is impeccable, and Su Xuqing is becoming more and more satisfied the more she looks at them.

After a while, Su Xuqing called the waiter over.

"Hey, I'm planning to buy some medicinal herbs in bulk. I wonder who's in charge here? Can you give me some discounts?"

Because the palace was extremely poor, Su Xuqing thought that she could save as much as possible, so she tried to bargain with the waiter.

When the clerk heard that it was a big customer, he smiled and said, "Please wait a moment. I will ask our shopkeeper to come out."

After saying that, the waiter hurried into a side room. Not long after, a middle-aged man with broad shoulders and a strong waist, wearing a purple silk gown, came out.

This man has a plump face and a fat body. His round and wide face is full of pits and there are two small mustaches at the corners of his mouth. He looks like a fathead catfish.

Su Xuqing couldn't help laughing for a moment.

The owner of the drug store looked suspicious.

"Why are you laughing, sir?"

Su Xuqing quickly shook her head, "Nothing, I just thought of something funny."

The shopkeeper was puzzled and did not ask further. He smiled and said, "Just now I heard from the waiter that you need a large batch of medicinal herbs, sir. I wonder what kind of herbs you need? Can you make a list?"

Su Xuqing bowed her head slightly. The waiter beside her was also very sensible. He spread out paper and pen for Su Xuqing to write a list of medicinal materials.

After writing down the required medicinal herbs, Su Xuqing handed the list to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper took a look and found that the medicinal herbs on the list were not very valuable, so he immediately lost interest.

Because these medicinal materials are very cheap, even if several kilograms of each are packed, it is only a little over a hundred taels of silver. Business at this price is not considered a big business at all.

The catfish shopkeeper laughed suddenly. "Sir, we have a rule here. If the value of the medicinal materials is less than two hundred taels, we can't give you a discount."

Su Xuqing did not notice the change in Catfish Shopkeeper's mood at this moment. She smiled and said slowly, "It will probably cost about 1,000 taels of medicinal materials."

One thousand taels? Did I hear it right? The catfish shopkeeper was obviously stunned.

The catfish shopkeeper who seemed unhappy just now suddenly had a smile on his face.

"Sir, the herbs you requested are very common. I don't know what you are going to do that requires such a large quantity."

Generally speaking, when you open a business, you will provide what the customer needs and will not usually ask what the purpose is.

The reason why the catfish shop owner had such doubts was that he felt that these medicinal herbs were too common, and when combined together, they didn't seem to be of much use. Could it be that this woman was making fun of him?

Su Xuqing naturally wouldn't tell the catfish shopkeeper, she just casually said: "I bought it for my own use, shopkeeper, don't ask so many questions, just tell me how much discount I can get and when the herbs can be delivered."

The catfish shopkeeper pinched his moustache and rolled his eyes in his sockets.

"How about this, sir, since this is our first cooperation, I will give you a 5% discount first. When we cooperate more often in the future, I will give you a 10% discount. How about that?"

After hearing what he said, Su Xuqing felt a little depressed. She only saved fifty taels from a business worth one thousand taels. Isn't it the same as not saving anything?

"Forget it, I'll go look somewhere else."

Seeing Su Xuqing was about to leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped her.

"Haha, if you feel that this discount is not enough, we can discuss it further."

Su Xuqing paused, groaned, and said, "If the shopkeeper is willing, then give me a 90% discount. This way I won't have to waste time looking around."

Catfish Shopkeeper saw Su Xuqing's attitude and thought that she really wanted to buy the herbs, so his attitude changed.

"Since you have said so much, let's do as you say."

The catfish shopkeeper shook his sleeves and said, "But I have a request, that is, I need to objectively settle the payment first. After all, this is our first cooperation, so we should be cautious."

Su Xuqing heard the hidden meaning of the catfish shop owner. He seemed to be afraid that she would not pay after placing the order.

"Okay, but we need to sign a contract."

"Of course, of course."

Su Xuqing signed and paid the money, and then agreed to pick up the goods three days later.

After Su Xuqing left, the clerk put away the contract and asked in confusion, "Boss, the herbs this guest wants are cheap. One thousand taels of silver is enough to buy several hundred kilograms of herbs. Where can we get so many herbs in just three days?"

The catfish shopkeeper smiled.

"Don't we have some stock of the herbs she wants in our warehouse?"
