Chapter 240 Talking about business
When the two women woke up, it was already dark.
Shang Wan listened to the commotion in the inn and found that everyone was gathered in the lobby, so he also carried Yuanyuan downstairs.
The little baby had just woken up and was a little clingy. She hugged Shang Wan's neck and kept rubbing her.
Shang Wan patted her back gently to comfort her.
"Just in time, come and sit down." Hua Niangzi glanced at Shang Wan who was walking to the stairs and waved to her.
Shang Wan hugged Yuanyuan and sat down next to her. Lady Hua stretched out her hand to pick up the little baby who was clinging to her mother and fed her goat milk.
"Having trouble getting the news?"
The expressions of the ladies were quite solemn. When Shang Wan asked, Mrs. Shu nodded and sighed softly: "The caravan in the hands of Boss Zhan is probably really troublesome."
Shang Wan picked up the pot and poured himself a cup of tea: "What should I say?"
"Another person died in the caravan. The person who died was a guard. The people from the government took Boss Zhan back for questioning. The news that the caravan was cursed has spread, and many people in the city are talking about it, asking the government to remove the caravan. drive them out, don’t bring trouble to everyone.”
Madam Shu frowned, looking worried.
Shang Wan took a sip of tea and said, "Isn't this a good thing?"
"Ah?" The other ladies looked over one after another, asking for answers.
Shang Wan: "When the news spreads, don't we just take the opportunity to lower the price?"
She asked Master An to make the news public. Who would be willing to be taken advantage of if they could spend less money?
"But..." Mrs. Shu pursed her red lips, "The caravan has been killing people, and the murderer hasn't been caught yet. What if we buy it and recruit the murderer too?"
She's just not afraid of curses, not killers.
Mrs. Lou asked: "Can't you wait until the murderer is caught before buying?"
"No." Shang Wan and Madam Shu said in unison. They looked at each other and saw the same meaning in each other's eyes.
The murderer has been caught, where can they take advantage?
After passing this village, there is no such shop.
"Then buy it." Hua Niangzi thought relatively simply, "This matter will not take a day or two. Let's work with him slowly. Can't we just buy it before the murderer is caught?"
This is a way, but the timing is not so easy to seize, and Boss Zhan is not a fool.
"I think we should buy it as soon as possible." Shang Wan put down the tea cup and told everyone, "The news has spread, and we are definitely not the only ones who want to pick up the leak. The longer things are delayed, the more likely things will happen."
She didn't want to make the trip in vain.
"As for the murderer, I'm waiting for him to come." Shang Wan's lips curved into a smile, which made all the ladies feel cold in their hearts.
Mrs. Shu didn't want to miss this good opportunity to pick up the leak. She calmed down and coughed: "Then it's settled?"
Lady Lou and Lady Hua both looked at Shang Wan. Seeing the careless look on Shang Wan's face, they somehow felt more confident and courageous.
Aren't they just killers? They also have Shang Wan!
The two of them nodded in unison, "It's settled!"
·
The next day, Zhan Mansion.
In the bedroom, the boy handed over the greeting card, "Master, someone has handed over the greeting card."
A big hand stretched out from behind the curtain and took the invitation.
After a rustling sound, the figure behind the curtain sat up and said, "Invite guests into the house."
"Yes." The boy exited the bedroom.
"dressing."
The maids filed in carrying things and helped the people who came out from behind the curtain to dress and wash. At the same time, Shang Wan and his party were led to the front hall by the steward of the Zhan Mansion to wait.
The maid came up to serve tea and took a second look at the baby Shang Wan was holding.
This doll looks so cute.
Yuanyuan tilted her little head and smiled at her. The maid was so cute that she covered her heart. She was so cute!
The group of people waited for about two-quarters of an hour. Just when Shang Wan was getting impatient, Boss Zhan arrived belatedly.
Shang Wan looked sideways at the visitor. As Mrs. Shu said, this boss Zhan looked a bit unattractive.
But if there is nothing redeeming about his appearance, that's not entirely true. At least his eyes are outstanding.
A pair of falcon eyes, with a hint of malevolence, seeming to be able to see the secrets deep in people's hearts at a glance.
While Shang Wan was looking at Boss Zhan, Boss Zhan was also looking at the four people present.
He had heard about the Lancang Club. All the people who joined the club were women, and it was true when he saw it now.
Among them, the most outstanding-looking woman was the woman sitting on his lower right hand holding a child. She looked very young, probably not yet twenty years old, but her temperament was different from the other three. He couldn't tell, but he instinctively paid more attention to it. Two points.
The four of Shang Wan had already discussed it before coming. Mrs. Shu would be mainly responsible for the negotiation, and the other three would provide support.
When talking about business, you always have to warm up the place with some pleasantries.
Mrs. Shu and Boss Zhan went back and forth, and it took them half a cup of tea before they got to the point.
After another trial of each other, Shang Wan felt exhausted after listening to it. While squeezing his round little fleshy hand, he secretly observed the person sitting above him.
She always felt that something was wrong with this person, but she couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.
Half an hour later, the price negotiation finally entered, and Mrs. Shu proposed to meet the leader of the caravan.
This request was reasonable, and Boss Zhan immediately ordered someone to come over.
The leader of the caravan was a middle-aged man with a beard and a somewhat unkempt appearance. His surname is Yang, and everyone in the caravan calls him Boss Yang or Boss.
Boss Yang came in to greet Boss Zhan first. When he looked up, his eyes were very black and blue, as if he had been punched.
I guess the fact that the caravan was cursed with consecutive deaths put a lot of pressure on him, and he might have been unable to sleep at night.
Boss Zhan said to Mr. Yang: "Tell all ladies carefully about the situation of the caravan."
"Yes." Boss Yang seemed to have been prepared. He explained the caravan's personnel composition, cargo configuration, vehicle configuration, where he had been and what business he was good at.
His words are clear and precise, and you can understand everything about the caravan just by listening to what he said.
Obviously, this boss Yang is not in vain.
Mrs. Shu's eyes turned around Boss Yang and quietly glanced at Shang Wan.
Shang Wan understood and coughed lightly.
Boss Yang immediately shut up and turned around to look.
Shang Wan smiled and said, "I heard that the caravan was cursed. Please tell me more about the curse."
Hearing this, Boss Yang's face immediately turned ugly. The emotions in his eyes were mixed with regret and panic, and he subconsciously looked towards Boss Zhan who was looking up.
His eyes glanced at Shang Wan, and Boss Zhan said with a smile: "The curse is purely a rumor. Boss Shang, don't listen to the nonsense of people outside. It's nothing."
"The news came from the government. People died one after another in the caravan. Boss Zhan really thinks he can hide it?"
Shang Wan raised his eyes and looked at the man sitting in the main seat with a deep look in his eyes, "Or is it Boss Zhan who bullied us sisters and wants to coax us to spend a lot of money to buy a hot potato and take it back?"
"Boss Shang is joking, I am most concerned about credibility in business, how could I deceive you?"
Boss Zhan suppressed his smile, with a bit of sullenness in his expression, as if Shang Wan had really wronged him, "If you don't believe Zhan, just don't discuss this deal."
