Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

Wu Yu no longer cared about hierarchy at this point; although he was just a guide, it was Xu Qing's right to buy things wherever she wanted.

But the medicine he gave him saved his younger brother's life, and he couldn't just stand by and watch Xu Qing be deceived.

"Madam, I swear on my life, there's a reason why Aji's saplings are so expensive. If you can't transport the saplings this old woman is selling back, you'll die."

Although she said she wouldn't charge you if you didn't live, once you give her money, it's very difficult to get it back!

Aji wanted to speak, but he was tongue-tied and scratched his head in frustration, but couldn't utter a single word.

Xu Qing looked at Aji: "Is 500 the lowest price?"

Having finally managed to get a word in edgewise, Aji hurriedly replied:

"400 coins per tree, but I'll round it down to zero and only charge you for 700 trees!"

Xu Qing nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, then I'll buy it from your store. When can it be delivered?"

Aji stared in disbelief, frozen in place.

Wu Yu kicked Aji in the butt: "Idiot, hurry up and answer!"

"Yes, madam. The goods will be ready in two days. Would you like me to help you transport them to the dock?"

Aji was overjoyed. He had thought that this deal was going to fall through again, since they were all rubber trees and who would be willing to pay so much more?

Thinking of this, he added, "Madam, don't worry, you'll see once you buy it! It definitely won't disappoint you!"

The old woman beside him refused to give up and continued to try to persuade Xu Qing:

"Oh dear, madam! Are you crazy? Why not take the cheapest option and insist on buying the expensive one? If you have too much money, why don't you give me some!"

Xu Qing was speechless. She was too lazy to pay attention to the old woman and planned to leave after paying part of the deposit.

The old woman performed a monologue for half a day, and when Xu Qing showed no reaction, she became enraged and began to curse.

"She looks like a shrewd young lady, but I never expected her to be a fool. No wonder you bought this idiot's stuff; a fool buys another fool's stuff."

I wonder if your husband will be angry when he finds out you've spent so much money unnecessarily?

Don't blame me for not reminding you, everyone in our market except for this idiot's shop has the same price.

If you insist on ordering these idiot's saplings, your husband will definitely beat you to death when you get home! Just you wait and see.

Xu Qing endured it all, but finally couldn't take it anymore. She turned around, grabbed the old woman by the collar, and slapped her across the face.

"Snapped!"

"I'll teach you to be so foul-mouthed! Try saying another word to me and see what happens! It's my money, I can spend it however I want."

You actually arranged it for me? You open your mouth and ask people for things, what kind of business are you trying to do? You might as well just change into some tattered clothes, grab a broken bowl, and squat on the street as a beggar.

I don't know if my man will beat me to death, but if you say another word that displeases me, I'll kill you first!

Xu Qing loosened the old woman's collar.

The old woman covered half her face and backed away, then sat down heavily on the ground and began to cry and scream:

"Help! Someone's being assaulted! Is there no law anymore?!"

I was trying to save her money out of kindness, and this little bitch not only didn't thank me, she even hit me.

Come quick, everyone! She's so young, but she's bullying this old woman like me just because there are so many of her.

"I don't want to live anymore! At my age, to be humiliated like this, how can I possibly have the face to live on in this world?"

The shops in the market were lined up one after another, and everyone nearby knew each other. The old woman's cries quickly attracted the attention of the shop owners and customers in the vicinity.

"Grandma Zheng, what happened? Who hit you?"

"Anyone who dares to cause trouble here, go and call the management office."

Seeing that those speaking up for her were all acquaintances, Old Mrs. Zheng immediately felt emboldened and pointed at Xu Qing, saying:

"She's the one who hit me and slapped me!"

I was doing this for his own good, but he insisted on buying the saplings from that idiot's family, which cost a whole 200 coins more per sapling!

Not only was she ungrateful, she even hit me! Waaaaaah...

The onlookers were confused, but they heard that a young man had hit an old man, and they all became indignant and began to criticize Xu Qing.

"How could you, at such a young age, hit an old person? Don't you have any sense of decency or shame?"

"This old lady's hair is all white, how could you do that to her?"

"That's absolutely wicked! If my wife were like you, I would definitely divorce her!"

"Report this to the authorities! We must report this to the authorities and teach her a lesson. We can't let her get away with this so easily!"

"Yes, we're doing this for her own good. Otherwise, if he thinks he can get away with hitting someone and continues to be so arrogant and domineering, he'll be a menace to society."

Aji wasn't good with words, but seeing these people so sharply criticizing his customers, he angrily pointed at Old Lady Zheng:

"You're being unreasonable. You were the one who started it by hurling insults. If you hadn't insulted them, would they have hit you? You brought this on yourself!"

Old Mrs. Zheng turned her face, bearing the five finger marks from being slapped, toward the crowd and pitifully said:

"I didn't scold her, I just advised her not to be deceived by you."

She wants to buy more than 700 rubber tree seedlings.

"The rubber tree seedlings in the entire market only cost 300 coins, but you're selling them for 500 coins. Is that considered insulting?"

Upon hearing this, the other stall owners, who had been observing, immediately began to chime in.

"That's where you're wrong. They were just trying to be kind, and you not only didn't appreciate it, but you also hit them!"

"And Aji, I'm not trying to criticize you, but it's one thing to fool people with small tricks all the time."

We all turn a blind eye, but you dare to cheat such a big customer. You're incredibly audacious!

“Yes, madam, we can all attest that what Old Mrs. Zheng said is true.”

They're the only ones selling at the highest prices in the entire market. We all have a uniform price, and there are discounts for bulk purchases.

Please don't be fooled by him. Why don't you come to my house and take a look? I'll give you a great discount!

Xu Qing looked at these people who had initially accused her with harsh words, but changed their tune after hearing that she wanted to buy so many saplings, and found it all amusing.

She said, seemingly embarrassed, "I'm new here and don't know anything about these things. I just happened to ask Aji's family."

The old woman tried to sell me something from her, but I was worried that there might be something wrong with the price being so low, so I didn't buy it from her.

Who knew that after failing to make the deal, she would call me stupid and say that if my husband found out I did things this way, he would definitely beat me to death!

"I was insulted for no reason, and in a fit of anger, I hit her."

Xu Qing covered her face, pretending to be strong as she wiped away non-existent tears, looking even more pitiful than Old Lady Zheng, who was throwing a tantrum on the ground.

The bystanders initially spoke up for Old Lady Zheng because they all disliked Aji.

His saplings only live a few years longer than the ones they sell.

They just pretend to sell the most expensive items, and then claim that there's a reason why they're so expensive.

What a hypocrite! It's disgusting.

Ironically, people still frequently buy from his store!

Hearing that Xu Qing wanted to buy so many saplings, they became even more envious and wanted to take the business for themselves.

"Madam, I'm sorry, we misunderstood you before. It turns out she insulted you first, so she deserved to be hit."

"Yes, yes, yes, Old Mrs. Zheng is always finding fault with everything and everyone. She's always criticizing this and that, so it's really not your fault."

"But she's not wrong, everyone in the market is selling it for 300 coins. Madam, don't be fooled by this fool."

Since you're already here, why not look at a few more options and compare them? Why don't you come and take a look at my saplings?
