The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 611 Bargaining
"That sounds really good, so I'll give you a 50% discount." Seeing the bookstore owner's hesitant expression, Xiaoyao Wang made the decision immediately.

After Ayu left happily, the bookstore owner stammered, "Your Highness... we're just a small business, and if the owner asks, how should I answer?"

The carefree prince put away his faint smile, his cold gaze piercing like an arrow, making the bookstore owner tremble involuntarily. Only then did he slowly say, "Do I need to teach you how to reply?"

The bookstore owner said tremblingly, "This humble citizen is dull-witted."

"Then you should honestly and truthfully tell them that I reduced the amount of money. If they feel they've been cheated, they can come to my Prince Xiaoyao's mansion to ask for their money back, how about that?"

What could the bookstore owner say? Did he really dare to go to the Prince of Xiaoyao's mansion to demand the law over such a trivial matter?

Everyone knows that the Carefree Prince has given up all hope and dares to offend everyone, as long as he can claim to be in the right, even the imperial court doesn't restrain him.

They could only watch helplessly as the carefree prince turned his wheelchair around and swaggered away from the bookstore.

After the carefree prince had completely left, the bookseller quickly discussed the matter with his employees and then hurriedly went out. After making eight turns in the west bay, he arrived at the back gate of the Duke of Anguo's mansion. He knocked a few times before a gatekeeper came.

"Boss Yue, what's the matter?"

The bookstore owner said with a wry smile, "I wonder if your second master has offended the Prince of Xiaoyao?"

The doorman looked surprised: "This matter should be top secret, how did you know?"

Bookstore owner: "..."

No wonder.

Every time the second wife caused trouble, the carefree prince would go to the bookstore to cause trouble, either taking their books to give away to students for free or giving them some discounts for old customers.

Or like today, with just a word, they lost three hundred taels of silver!

It's a real loss of three hundred taels!
You know, everything sold in the bookstore is very expensive, but that's why the bookstore's business isn't as good as you'd imagine. Plus, there are just too many bookstores in the capital, and with all the competition and the Prince of Xiaoyao venting his frustrations here from time to time, their bookstore has long been operating at a loss.

The bookstore owner sighed, "Sigh, I've followed the wrong manager. It's exhausting." He secretly thought to himself that it would have been better to let that young girl be the manager, or even just a behind-the-scenes boss. That girl looked like someone who could do business. She was flexible and knew how to say both good and bad things, yet she was impossible to find fault with or get angry about. Wasn't she a born businesswoman?
As for Ayu, she hummed a song and happily returned to the Wang family home, heading straight into Old Mrs. Wang's courtyard.

"Grandpa, Grandma, I'm back! The paper for the bookstore has been ordered!"

This time, Ali ordered not only the paper for the 300 brocade pouches, but also various kinds of paper for her brothers to use when they come here to study, as well as ten sets each of writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. She also had the foresight to buy a lot of fine flowered stationery so that her brothers could practice calligraphy on it. After the imperial examination, if her brother Ayou becomes the top scholar, it will bring in a large sum of money.

The total price was almost a thousand taels, and Ayu pleaded with the shopkeeper to waive 100 taels.

As soon as that uncle arrived, she cut the price in half, and that was a real bargain!

"Slow down, be careful not to fall." Old Wang in the yard started hanging his jade pendant again, and now you can see the appearance of the Pixiu on it. Seeing her like that, he quickly called out to her.

Ayu hummed in agreement and then leaned her fluffy little head closer: "Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Old Wang said, "I'll carve a jade pendant for your second uncle."

"Wow!"

Just as Ayu was expressing her surprise, Wang Chuangui moved over with the book in his hands, his eyes filled with overwhelming gratitude.

"Father, is it really for me?"

Why is he so disbelieving?
"No," Old Wang said irritably, "it's for the pigs."

Wang Chuangui patted his chest, looking relieved: "Then it's mine."

Ayu: "..."
