Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

Although he was wondering why the young lady was here, he had no time to care about it at the moment. He just wanted to calm the young lady's anger as soon as possible.

Seeing the steward Jiang Chengyu's look, Xiao Liuzi was also frightened. He trembled and put down the whip in his hand, stammering in defense: "Staff... Steward, didn't you ask me to do this? Miss, it's none of my business."

Jiang Wanrou glanced at Xiao Liuzi coldly, her eyes full of anger and disappointment. She turned to Jiang Chengyu and said in a cold and firm voice: "Jiang Chengyu, as the manager of the pawnshop, you actually allowed your subordinates to bully the slaves like this. You are totally unscrupulous! Bi'er, go and ask Manager Jiang to come over. I want him to handle this matter personally."

Jiang Chengyu was so scared at this moment. He didn't expect that the young lady would be so angry and even call Manager Jiang.

He knew that he was completely finished this time. He knelt in front of Jiang Wanrou, crying heartbreakingly: "Miss, please let me go! I will never dare to do it again!"

Jiang Wanrou became even angrier when she saw Jiang Chengyu like this.

She shook her head in disbelief and shouted angrily, "Look at what you have done to these people! Although they are slaves, they are also living beings. How can you torture them like this?"

Jiang Chengyu was no longer able to defend himself at this moment. He collapsed to the ground, his heart filled with despair.

He knew that he was really finished this time. Not only did he lose his job, but he might also face more severe punishment.

After a while, Manager Jiang, who arrived late, walked into the pawnshop.

He was shocked by the scene before him. The servants of the pawnshop were beaten all over, and his nephew was kneeling in front of Jiang Wanrou.

He immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and his face turned very ugly.

"Miss." Manager Jiang bowed respectfully to Jiang Wanrou, his eyes revealing awe and respect for the young lady.

Jiang Wanrou nodded and motioned for Bier to tell her what had just happened.

Bi'er recounted the entire incident in detail, leaving out no details.

Manager Jiang had already guessed most of what was happening since he entered the room.

He felt angry and disappointed with his nephew Jiang Chengyu's behavior, but he also knew that the most important thing now was to solve the problem.

A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Wanrou looked at Manager Jiang and said lightly: "Manager Jiang, this is probably the situation. How do you think we should deal with this matter?" She didn't want to deal with this matter personally. After all, Jiang Chengyu was his nephew, and it would be more appropriate for him to handle it.

Manager Jiang took a deep breath, walked up to Jiang Chengyu and slapped him a few times, shouting angrily: "You rebellious son! Get out of here, I don't want to see you again!"

Seeing this, Chen Yuxi on the side quickly reminded: "Miss Jiang, can you help my lady to decide on the shop first? She still has a lot of things to deal with."

Jiang Wanrou then remembered Jiang Xue's matter and said a little embarrassedly: "Miss Jiang, I'm so sorry. I'll ask the housekeeper to arrange it right away."

She turned to the butler and signaled him to deal with it as soon as possible.

The housekeeper nodded and shouted at Jiang Chengyu, "Why don't you go find a shop quickly? Don't let Miss Jiang wait anxiously!"

Jiang Chengyu was so frightened at this time that he quickly got up and ran into the house, taking out a notebook.

After a while, he asked people to bring chairs for everyone to sit down, and asked the clerk next to him to release the slaves who had been trapped before. He stood in the middle and began to introduce the shops in the pawnshop one by one.

"Miss, which shop are you looking at?" Jiang Chengyu asked cautiously, fearing that he would anger Jiang Wanrou again.

Jiang Wanrou turned to Jiang Xue and asked, "Miss Jiang, which shops do you want to buy?"

Jiang Xue pondered for a moment and replied, "A location in the center of the street or at the pier, as long as the store doesn't need a yard, I'll accept it if the location is good and connected to a whole area."

After hearing this, Jiang Chengyu quickly opened the book of the two locations, checked carefully and said, "There is a rouge shop in the center of the street that is planning to sell it. The price is forty-five taels."

Chen Yuxi listened from the side and said with some dissatisfaction: "Why is it only forty-five taels? Wasn't it one hundred taels just now? Why aren't you asking for a lot now?" There was sarcasm and dissatisfaction in her words.

Jiang Chengyu was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat. He knew that his behavior had angered Jiang Wanrou and Jiang Xue, and now he didn't dare to say anything more. He lowered his head and silently endured Chen Yuxi's accusations.

Jiang Xue frowned. She didn't want to waste time on this question, so she said calmly, "Xi'er, let him continue."

"Hmph." Chen Yuxi glared at Jiang Chengyu opposite her, obviously still dissatisfied with his behavior.

Jiang Chengyu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly explained: "The original price of this rouge shop was forty taels, but because the Jiang family snack shop next door has been doing a booming business recently, the surrounding shops have all raised their prices, so now it has become forty-five taels."

Jiang Wanrou couldn't help but look at Jiang Xue with amusement after hearing this and said, "Miss Jiang, you didn't expect that! Your own store has raised the value of this street!"

Jiang Xue also felt a little helpless and amused. She really didn't expect that her snack shop would have such an influence.

But then, she thought of the problem of price increases in stores and decided to buy out all the surrounding stores now.

"Take a look at all the shops for sale in the city center. If the price is negotiable, I'll take them all." Jiang Xue said to Jiang Chengyu.

Jiang Chengyu was completely stunned. He originally thought that Jiang Xue was just an ordinary peasant girl, but he didn't expect that she was the behind-the-scenes owner of Jiang's Snack Shop.

Now hearing that she was going to buy all the shops for sale in the city center, he was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.

Jiang Chengyu felt mixed emotions at the moment. He knew that he was really in big trouble this time. Although he had heard about the popularity of Jiang's snack shop before, he didn't expect that the owner behind it was such a young girl. He secretly regretted how he was so blind to get into trouble with such a person.

He knew his young lady's attitude towards Jiang Xue and knew that this person was definitely not someone he could easily offend. Therefore, he could only try his best to perform and hope to save some of the situation.

"Miss, there are about 16 shops for sale in the center of the street, and the prices range from forty to eighty taels." Jiang Chengyu handed the notebook in his hand to Jiang Xue, trying his best to look sincere.

Jiang Xue took the book and began to look through it carefully. Her eyes paused on a shop with a price tag of 200 taels. She was a little curious, so she asked, "Why is this shop 200 taels? Tell me about it."

Seeing that Jiang Xue was interested in this shop, Jiang Chengyu was moved and quickly explained: "Miss, this shop has an excellent location and a large area, and the three shops are connected together, so the price is a bit higher. However, if you really want it, I can help you negotiate the price and see if I can get a better discount."

He had not originally planned to recommend this shop to Jiang Xue, because he thought the price was a bit high. But now that he saw that Jiang Xue was interested in this shop, he decided to take a risk and try, hoping to make this deal happen.

"How about I take you there now so you can check out the location and environment yourself," Jiang Chengyu suggested.

Jiang Xue nodded in agreement. Then, led by Jiang Chengyu, the group headed to the shop in the town center.

A quarter of an hour later, town center

"Girl, this is the shop." Jiang Chengyu pointed at the shop in front of him and saw that the shop owner, Boss Yang, was there, so he put away the key.

Jiang Xue nodded and walked into the shop. Although the shop was a bit messy, it was spacious and in an excellent location, only ten meters away from Jiang's Snack Shop. She could clearly see the long line in front of Jiang's Snack Shop, and the business was extremely hot.

Boss Yang was a little surprised to see someone coming in. He had originally planned to go to Mrs. Wang to reduce the price of the shop, because the shop had been on the market for more than a year and no one was interested in it. He had gone back and forth more than ten times, which was a waste of time and annoying.

"Knock knock knock." There was a knock on the door. Boss Yang turned around and looked at the door. Seeing that it was a little girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old, he felt a little curious.

"Who are you looking for, girl?" he asked.

Jiang Xue shook her head and looked at Jiang Chengyu behind her. Jiang Chengyu hurriedly walked into the shop and said to Boss Yang with a smile: "Hello, Shopkeeper Yang. I am the new manager of the dental shop. My last name is Jiang. Are you still selling in our dental shop?"

Boss Yang was stunned. He didn't expect that Mrs. Wang would suddenly be replaced by a manager named Jiang. But he immediately reacted and replied, "Sell it, why not?"

Hearing Jiang Chengyu's words, he was delighted and turned around to introduce Jiang Xue behind him: "This girl is a buyer and wants to see the store. Is it convenient for you?"

Looking at the girl opposite, Boss Yang was stunned. He didn't expect that the girl actually wanted to buy his shop. He looked at the lady behind her, who was obviously a lady from a wealthy family. It was obvious that she was not someone he could afford to offend.

"Miss, please come in." Boss Yang invited Jiang Xue and others in with a gesture of invitation.

Jiang Xue walked into the house and was attracted by the scene in front of her. The three rooms were connected together, spacious and bright, with a large yard at the back and private rooms upstairs. It was indeed a good shop. She couldn't help but admire Boss Yang's business acumen.

"What kind of shop was this before?" Jiang Xue asked curiously.
