Chapter Seventy-Eight: Fair Dealing
Different from the crowd around him, the blue-robed man listened to Chu Xintian's price, and his face was very calm.
He shook the fan in his hand, looked Chu Xintian up and down, and then said:
"Little girl, are you asking for a price? Do you think I didn't hear anything outside? This bird has been reported for nine taels of silver, and you are asking for one hundred taels now, are you robbing the money?"
The man in the blue robe spoke in a loud voice, but his tone was aggressive and imposing.
The people around him also felt that what he said made sense, and they all nodded, talking about Chu Xintian.
"That's right, you have to be fair in doing business, and you can't watch people change the price casually, one hundred taels is too expensive!"
"That's right, looking at the woman with a good face, why is the asking price so dark!"
There were many women in the crowd who were attracted by the appearance of the man in the blue robe. They also criticized Chu Xintian one after another.
Bai Yongjing was very unhappy when he saw his mother being blamed by the people around her. Why do these people think that he said such ugly things to his mother? They don't know each other, how can they say that their mother has no heart and no lungs?
However, Bai Yongjing also thought that Chu Xintian's asking price was a bit too high, and this bird couldn't lay golden eggs, how could it be worth a hundred taels? Nine taels of silver were sold, and he was very content.
Facing the accusations of the people around him, Chu Xintian was unmoved.
She had a plan in mind.
Although a man dressed in blue can hide his thoughts, his eyes cannot deceive people.
Chu Xintian could see that when that person looked at the colorful big bird, his eyes showed a very urgent look.
Judging from this person's clothes, he must be a person who is either rich or noble, like this, what rare thing has he not seen?
He would surely be interested in this brightly colored bird, as it is an extremely rare species that cannot be found anywhere else.
The man's clothes and accessories were worth a thousand taels of silver.
One hundred taels was just an insignificant amount of money to him, so Chu Xintian dared to do this.
This person is right, she just looks at the price of people.
If the business is done, she will make money, and if it fails, Chu Xintian will not lose. After all, this colorful little bird costs her zero. She made money for as much as she sold, it's just a matter of how much.
But this man in blue is different, he wants this colorful bird, but he can't buy it anywhere except for Chu Xintian.
So in the face of questioning, Chu Xintian just smiled faintly: "This master, I never said that I would sell this bird for nine taels of silver, and the nine taels of silver was just from the two guest officers, and they haven't asked me if the master will agree to sell it for nine taels of silver."
Listening to Chu Xintian's words, a meaningful smile appeared on the man's face.
She looks like just an ordinary country girl, but when she speaks, her face is calm, her thinking is clear, her logic is rigorous, and she is generous, and she looks very smart, even a little cunning.
That's kind of interesting.
The blue-robed man looked at the colorful bird again.
He really liked the bird.
Next month is the birthday of a certain prince in the capital, he is thinking about what kind of gift to give, just happened to see this colorful bird, such a beautiful bird, even he is the first time to see, and the prince has always liked these strange animals the most, this bird as a birthday gift, will definitely win the favor of the prince.
Now in the court, this prince is a big man with real power, and if he can have a good relationship, he will benefit a lot in business in the future.
A hundred taels was not expensive to him at all, and he also admired the woman in front of him, and he thought that her intelligence was worth a hundred taels.
He took out the silver ticket and handed it to Chu Xintian.
Chu Xintian took the money and handed over the colored bird to him.
Before the blue-robed man could pick up the big bird, another person came in the crowd.
