Chapter 2168: A Thousand Yuan Is too Little

“You…” The man was startled, and he didn’t expect Gu Ning to know that the roots of the marsh clivia were already rotten.

After everyone learned that the roots of this marsh clivia was already rotten, they all felt sorry. If it was healthy, it would be worth thirty thousand yuan!

Most of them were ordinary people, so thirty thousand yuan was a lot of money for them.

“Well, I can pay you a thousand yuan for it. If you want to sell, I’ll take it. If you don’t sell it, then forget it, but if you want us to pay you money for the loss, it’s impossible,” Gu Ning said. It wasn’t because she was kind, but because she could save this clivia, so its value would be a lot more then.

Marsh clivia wasn’t cheap. If the roots of this marsh clivia weren’t rotten, it would be worth about thirty thousand yuan. However, after this marsh clivia came into her hands, she could use magical power to cure it, and it could also make the variety better. Therefore, its price would be more than thirty thousand yuan, and fifty thousand yuan was a conservative price.

“What? A thousand yuan? It’s too little. No way!” Once the man heard Gu Ning’s reply, he was furious.

This pot of marsh clivia was really rotten, and it couldn’t live long. It wasn’t worth much, but one thousand yuan was too little. If its roots weren’t rotten, it would be worth thirty thousand yuan!

However, it was precisely because the roots of this marsh clivia were rotten that it was worthless. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken it out to cause a feigned injury. He would have sold it directly in the market, and it would quickly be sold.

“Too little? Okay, then I don’t want it. Anyway, you and I know the cause of the matter. There are surveillance cameras above our heads. Even if you have a relations.h.i.+p with the police station in this area, I can go directly to the Public Security Bureau. So, if you continue to cause us trouble, I’ll stay with you to the end to see who’ll win,” Gu Ning provocatively said with great confidence. She didn’t seem to be acting, but was telling the truth.

“You…” The man was mad, but he was timid in the face of Gu Ning’s confidence. This was the capital after all and there were countless people of power in this city. He could offend someone he shouldn’t mess with if he wasn’t careful.

Although a thousand yuan was very little, he would be dragged into trouble if he didn’t sell it. At that time, he wouldn’t get a yuan, let alone a thousand yuan.

“A thousand yuan is too little. I need more.” The man was reluctant to give up, so he negotiated with Gu Ning. However, once he said it aloud, it meant he compromised.

“If you say one more sentence, I won’t buy it even if its price is a thousand yuan,” said Gu Ning.

“Well…” The man hesitated. He was unwilling to sell it to Gu Ning for a thousand yuan, but if he didn’t sell it, no one would pay any money for it.

He wanted to be tough and order Gu Ning to give him twenty thousand yuan, but he was afraid that she was someone he shouldn’t mess with. Although he often did bad things, it didn’t mean he was afraid of nothing.

“Alright, alright, just give me a thousand yuan.” In the end, the man compromised. As for why Gu Ning spent a thousand yuan to buy this dying marsh clivia, the man didn’t think about it at all.

Gu Ning took out a thousand yuan and gave it to the man, then the man left.

Gu Ning quickly agreed this time because the man knew when to give in. If he didn’t stop arguing with her, she would teach him a lesson with her fists.

After that, Gu Ning bought a flower pot in the shop next to them and replanted the clivia.

In public, Gu Ning couldn’t put magical power into the marsh clivia right away, but it wouldn’t die so soon.

After it was done, Gu Ning and the others left and returned to the store to rent.

After about five minutes, the owner came.

Although it was Gu Ning who made the call, after the owner came, Jing Yunyao came forward to talk about the business. Jing Yunyao had run a business before, so she knew how to do the deal.

The owner was an upright person, and the rent price was very fair, but the owner also honestly told Jing Yunyao and the others that his son was a gambler and had lost a lot of money. Therefore, his son always wanted to steal this store and might come to make trouble later.

The former renter ended the lease because his son made trouble, so the owner told them to consider it carefully.

However, both Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing weren’t worried about that.

Although Jing Yunyao wouldn’t be in the shop often and Miao Jingjing lost her talents as a cultivator, she was still very good at martial arts, so she wouldn’t be afraid.

However, Jing Yunyao also made it clear that if the owner’s son really caused them trouble, they would beat his son. They asked the owner whether they would be held accountable. They wouldn’t use great strength anyway.

Hearing that, the owner sighed and said that he wouldn’t blame or sue them, but his son might and he couldn’t stop his son.

If so, Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing had nothing to worry about, so they directly signed the contract.

After the contract was signed for five years, the rent won’t change within a five year period. And if they closed the business during that period, they could sublet. It was all up to them.

The store was messy, so they needed to clean it up first.

For the flower shop, there was no need to decorate too much. They just needed to paint the wall white, make a counter, then simply decorate it.

These things could be done in a few days, so they should find a plant supplier next.

Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing would be in charge of decoration, but they weren’t in a hurry right now, they would go back to the siheyuan to dine first, then hire workers to paint the walls in the afternoon.

After having a meal, Gu Ning went back to school. Gu Ning told K to seek cooperation with a flower wholesaler. After all, K was very good at looking for information.

Soon, K got a result. However, because it would take several days to decorate the shop, Gu Ning wasn’t in a hurry to purchase the goods. It was the weekend soon, so she would wait until then to do it.

When Baili Zongxue knew that Gu Ning came to school, she chatted with her privately. Because she knew why Gu Ning left the school, she asked her about the situation.

Gu Ning: It’s done. The female ghost successfully took revenge. Her soul dissipated, and she got into reincarnation.

Baili Zongxue: Glad to know that.

Baili Zongxue didn’t think it was wrong for Gu Ning to help Zhao Xiaoxi kill, because that man deserved to die. Besides, Gu Ning didn’t kill him with her own hands. That man died because of the terrible deed he had committed.

Song Miaoge and Zhang Zikai also read the news of Song Yang’s death, so when they went to dinner after school in the afternoon, Song Miaoge and Zhang Zikai discussed it.

“What did Song Yang do that caused the murder? Or is it purely a tragedy?” Song Miaoge asked. As far as she was concerned, she felt that Song Yang must have offended someone.

“I think he should have offended someone. After all, the police didn’t even find traces of the murderer, so obviously this was carefully planned. If it’s just an accident, the possibility of leaving evidence and traces is very high,” Zhang Zikai said.
