“If I can’t do my job well for Master, how can 1 be worthy of serving by your side?” Gu Qingyou looked at Su Qian and asked sincerely, “According to the information I’ve gathered, the head of the Su family seems to be planning to mortgage their ancestral mansion for 100,000 taels of gold to alleviate their urgent situation. Regarding this matter, I wonder if Master has any thoughts?”
“It seems that Su Kian is really willing to take a risk. He’s even willing to mortgage his ancestral mansion.” Su Qian pursed her lips and chuckled lightly.”Speaking of which, 1 happen to be looking for a place to stay in this capital…”
“Master, 1 think we can buy the Su family’s ancestral mansion at a low price.” Gu Qingyou quickly suggested.
“That’s a good idea. However, just buying the ancestral mansion is not enough.” Su Qian calmly played with the list filled with the names of the medicinal herbs. The sharp coldness in her eyes was like a layer of mist as she said with a faint smile. “Doesn’t the Su family want to refine elixirs?” Then let’s play with them and see who will refine the elixirs that sell better in the end.”
“Master, do you want to confront the Su family head-on?” Gu Qingyou asked expectantly.
“First, think of a way to buy the Su family’s ancestral mansion with 80,000 taels of gold. Then, prepare the medicinal herbs for me to refine the top-grade Vitality Fortifying Elixir. Let our subordinates refine some of it. When the Su family starts selling the elixirs, we will also start selling. However, don’t reveal my identity while selling the elixirs. You can pretend that you have nothing to do with me and pretend that you only supply me with medicinal herbs,” Su Qian said.
“Then, may 1 ask under whose name does Master plan to sell these elixirs?” Gu Qingyou asked.
Su Qian cupped her chin with her snow-white hand and said with a deep gaze, “Gong Nan. When the time comes, have our subordinates disguise themselves as the subordinates of a person named Gong Nan and sell the elixirs.”
“What about the pricing of the elixirs?” Gu Qingyou proposed actively, “1 think that we can set our price about 10% lower than the Su family. That way, we can attract almost half of their customers.”
“Lower by 10%? How is that enough? At that time, the price of the Vitality Fortifying Elixir will only be half of that of the Su family. I don’t want just half of their customers, I want it all. Let the Su family guard a large number of refined elixir, but they can’t sell them.” Su Qian’s eyes gleamed with a dark light as she sneered, “If we want to make a move, you have to give the Su family no way out. Then, I’ll get back what they owe me bit by bit.”
Gu Qingyou’s eyes burned as he looked at Su Qian’s arrogant and unyielding appearance. He felt that his master was like a lone and proud wolf, revealing its sharp fangs, ready to destroy the Su family completely.
Su Qian was dangerous, but she was like a mandala flower blooming in the dark. She was covered in thorns, yet she was breathtakingly beautiful, driving men crazy for her.
“I understand. Please rest assured, Master. I will definitely handle this matter well,” Gu Qingyou said with a gentle smile.
Su Qian trusted Gu Qingyou, so she didn’t stay any longer after discussing with him. “Since everything is settled, I’ll go back first,” she said in a hurry to leave.
“Master, are you leaving already? Aren’t you going to sit down and eat more?” Gu Qingyou tried to persuade Su Qian to stay. “I feel like Master is even thinner than before. Have you encountered any setbacks lately?”
Hearing Gu Qingyou’s words, Xiao Yan’s face appeared in Su Qian’s mind..
