Boss Hong glanced at the cashier accusingly: "You scared the little girl."

"It's true. I don't know why they came from other places. The capital is not like their nooks and crannies. It is full of dignitaries and nobles, and they accidentally offend people who cannot be offended."

The cashier and Boss Hong, one with a red face and the other with a dark face, talked for a while.

Yun Xi almost fell asleep listening to it.

Little Ye Zi couldn't bear it anymore and jumped out and shouted: "My lady is not someone to be bullied!"

What happened to the dignitaries?

The young lady is the legitimate daughter of Shangshu Mansion and the county head personally appointed by the emperor. What's the difference?

Yun Xi patted Xiao Yezi's shoulder and signaled her to stop talking.

The accountant couldn't help but sneer again and again: "You really don't know how high the sky is! Our boss is very kind-hearted. Considering that you are helpless in the capital, he wants to help you. If you don't know what to do, forget it."

"We accept Boss Hong's wishes." Yun Xi sighed.

"Well, as long as Miss Lin understands." Boss Hong nodded with satisfaction.

She is just a little girl, and it is not a matter of letting her listen to his deception.

"However, we still hope to act in accordance with the contract."

Yun Xi pointed to the contract in his hand.

"Boss Hong, I don't know about this contract. Are you still here?"

Boss Hong nodded solemnly: "Of course, Mr. Hong has always taken good care of these."

"Okay, then I wonder if Boss Hong still remembers Article 7, about liability for breach of contract?"

The corners of Boss Hong's mouth slowly raised, and he said in a deep voice: "Ms. Lin, why, do you still want us to give you the contract price?"

"Now that we have made a contract, we must act in accordance with the contract." Yun Xi said sternly.

"But we can't do loss-making business. This Miss Lin should understand, right?"

"Of course I understand. But a contract is a contract. The price of lumber has increased today. What if the price of lumber has dropped? Could it be that if we ask Boss Hong to reduce the price, Boss Hong will be willing?"

Are you talking nonsense?

If the price falls and businessmen don’t take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, what else is it called business?

Boss Hong's face looked a little ugly.

"Boss Hong, I read it carefully. It is clearly written on it. If you cannot supply the goods according to the contract price, then we have the right to unilaterally terminate the contract. At the same time, Boss Hong will also compensate us ten times the deposit."

Boss Hong laughed loudly: "Okay."

How much is three times the deposit? Only five thousand taels.

But if he terminates the cooperation, then there will be no place to get their mahogany!

All the mahogany trees in the capital have been eaten by him in the past few days to prevent this trick.

The completion date of the General's Mansion must not be delayed. In the end, this little bitch will still come to find him. At that time, if he raises the price ten times or twenty times, she will have to admit it even if she doesn't admit it!

If he doesn't make a profit, he will be sorry for his ancestors!

"Ms. Lin, since you are unwilling to increase the price, I can only terminate the contract and compensate you!"

Yun Xi didn't expect the old man to pay compensation so readily, and was a little surprised.

That's five thousand taels of silver, doesn't he feel bad?

How can it be?

That means he still has a backup plan.

It didn't take long for the accountant to bring out five thousand taels of silver notes and happily gave them to Yun Xi.

I also wrote notes on the contract and took my fingerprints.

Yun Xi took the five thousand taels and smiled happily.

Very happily, I said goodbye to the unjust businessman Hong (boss) in front of me.

"Miss, aren't they going to raise the price? Why did they give you so many banknotes?" Xiao Yezi had many questions.

"I guess there are no more redwoods in other parts of the capital. It is very likely that they have bought them all." Yun Xi guessed.

Wait for her to finally plead and then raise the price?

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be fined so readily.

"Ah? What should we do? Master Lin Wu is still waiting for mahogany to make furniture."

"I have a method." After Yun Xi finished speaking, he began to close his eyes and rest.

I kept searching the supermarket in my mind to see if there were any suitable substitutes.

When the carriage returned to the General's Mansion, Yun Xi told the eagerly awaited Lin Wu about the situation. Lin Wu was frightened out of his wits.

"Yun Xi, how can you terminate the contract? There is a severe shortage of wood in the capital recently. You can't find redwood anywhere. Theirs is the only one. My third uncle and I have always been lucky to have signed the contract with his family."

Lin Wu was very upset.

Lin Wu was not happy at all with the five thousand taels of silver notes. There's soy sauce hanging from your mouth.

"Sister, you are too impulsive." He was crestfallen.

Without mahogany, furniture cannot be made, and there are many other places where mahogany is needed.

It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal for an incomparable person, no matter how exquisite his craftsmanship is, it won't work.

Lin Wu had learned carpentry in a small town before, and this time he felt a little itchy, so he decided to make something by himself.

"Brother, don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Yun Xi came to the general's mansion and redesigned some furniture.

Without mahogany, the design and shape of many furniture will be different.

"Brother, please look around and see if there is any ready-made mahogany furniture for sale."

"Oh, I think I've seen this before, but it doesn't fit the set."

"It's okay. You go search it first and take me to see it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Ready-made mahogany furniture, as long as it is suitable, will definitely be better than making it yourself.

But it is impossible to have a complete variety.

Yun Xi walked around the general's mansion, her brows furrowed.

The mahogany from Boss Hong’s house is absolutely no longer available for purchase. It’s a huge waste.

You can find a suitable substitute all at once, and there are really many advantages.

"Miss..." Yun Shi hesitated for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Yun Shi like this for the first time, Yun Xi was a little curious.

"There are many big trees on the mountain over the manor. I wonder if they can be used? Can you go and take a look when you have time?"

Yun Shi didn't know anything about mahogany or black wood. He only knew it was wood. There are many mountains.

"Yeah, why did I forget that I was on the mountain?"

Yun Xi jumped up in surprise: "Let's go over there and have a look."

The carriage ran very fast and soon arrived at the manor that Yun Xi purchased.

Yun Xi had something on her mind and was no longer in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery on the road.

As soon as they arrived outside the courtyard of the manor, they heard a swish sound inside. Dozens of teenagers wearing uniform black mysterious clothes knelt on the ground neatly, bowed their hands to Yun Xi and saluted: "Greetings to the master."

Little Yezi screamed in fright: "Who are you?"

"Xiao Yezi, these are Miss's people." Xiao Qing explained from the side.

A little proud.

The lady has trained them so well!

"You guys, you won't hurt me, will you?" Looking at the tendons of the men in the first row, Xiao Yezi asked with a tremble.

This group of people looks so powerful, so scary.

If they take action, he and the young lady will have no power to resist at all!

"Little Ye Zi, don't worry." Yun Xi walked forward with a smile.
