Furthermore, the Old lady of the Bai Clan just so happened to be in the nineties this year. The rules of the Cloud Prefecture, being one of the best in life, and the Bai Family being one of the most respectable families in the entire Cloud Prefecture, naturally had to be set up.

In the mansions of large families, the matriarch was the one who had to host most of the guests in the neighborhood.

For this reason, Madam Ge of the Bai family was extremely busy. If not for the fact that they were already familiar with Zhang First Lady when the Ge family was still young, they might not have come back to attend the Zhang family's birthday banquet.

However, Mrs Ge truly felt that coming here was the right decision. Putting everything else aside, the snacks at the Zhang Family banquet were all exquisite and unique.

He then said that the more he saw, the more he felt that it was a good idea, and he couldn't help but ask First Lady Zhang about it.

Although the Zhang Family was one of the top clans in the Cloud Prefecture, they were still much worse off than the Bai Family. Seeing that the First Lady of the Bai family, Madame Ge had humbled herself, there was no reason for First Lady Zhang to shirk her grudges.

Furthermore, he said that it was only the origin of a snack and not his own business. There was nothing to worry about, so he explained the price in detail. He also specially assigned a micros who was familiar with the way of the Clear Water Town to let the Ge Clan take it back.

At this time, Qin Wuya was holding a letter with the Cloud Prefecture's Bai Family's unique lotus pattern red seal in her hands.

Then, he mentioned by name that five days later, there would be a steward who would come to agree on the specifics and sign the deed. Naturally, he would also first pay a portion of the deposit.

Qin Wuya looked at the date written below, which was two days ago. In other words, the Hundred Palace Chief was going to arrive in three days.

Amongst the deed s that Zhang Family First Lady had signed with, Luo Luo's name was Manager Wu and Qin Wuya. Although the Bai Family might be a one-time deal, because there were so many of them, the Manager Wu made the micros bring the letters to the Chao Chung Hall in order for Qin Wuya to prepare them. Three days later, the Manager Wu would go to the Bai Clan to receive the steward.

In terms of the pastries business, Qin Wuya had a lot of shares. Although Qin Wuya had been a shopkeeper for a long time ago, she did not dare to not care about the business.

After thinking about it, Qin Wuya called for the shop assistant who was waiting at the entrance. After stuffing him with five coins, he asked him to pass the message to the Manager Wu, saying that he would be meeting with them in three days at the Guest Home Resturant on time.

The guard was naturally happy to receive the money, he thanked Qin Wuya and left.

As the servant had just left the side door, Wang Nu happened to be bringing in the coix rice porridge she had just cooked. Qin Wuya did not have the habit of delaying so, she straightforwardly told Wang Nu that he would be going to Guest Home Resturant in three days to discuss business matters.

Hearing that Qin Wuya had only just entered the Chao Chung Hall and was about to leave home for a few days, the Wang Nu was slightly unhappy, but she knew her limits. She only frowned slightly and did not say anything, and continued to look after the matters in the courtyard for Qin Wuya.

Qin Wuya more or less knew what the Wang Nu was thinking.

However, this kind of problem was not something that could be solved in a day or two. Qin Wuya felt that she wouldn't be able to make it out alive if she didn't step out of the door, so she could only act as if she didn't see the Wang Nu speak, and continue doing what she was doing.

In the morning three days later, Qin Wuya changed into a set of clean and proper clothes and went to Guest Home Resturant alone.

He did not expect that just as he arrived in Guest Home Resturant, Qin Wuya would hear the words of the servant in the pavilion. That steward of the Bai Clan had come yesterday night.

After hearing this news, Qin Wuya could not help but feel depressed, she still thought she came here early enough, she did not expect that she would miss the chance to discuss it with the Manager Wu.

To say that the steward of the Bai Clan had made good use of his time. If he had come during the day, even at dusk, Manager Wu would have sent a servant to secretly greet him at the Chao Chung Hall. However, this manager had actually arrived here before the third fragment of the night had even passed.

If it were not for the fact that half of the Guest Home Resturant's businesses were inns and the fact that there were shop assistants keeping watch in the courtyard for a long time, this steward of the Bai Clan might even have had to eat a closed-door meal.

However, things had already gotten to this point, so Qin Wuya was not too conflicted. She tidied up her appearance and asked the two shop assistants about their location before calmly heading to the guest room on the second floor.

Qin Wuya was still in good shape today. Along the way, a faint smile hung on her face, which was far from the nervousness she had when she went to the Zhang Residence.

Of course, this did not mean that Qin Wuya's mental fortitude was truly stronger than before.

In the end, it was only because the other party had come to him to ask about the business, and not because he had to go to such lengths to beg for it.

Even though it was a business deal, begging and being begged were two completely different feelings.

Although the Zhang Clan sent a letter to ask about the Zhang Clan's sale, it was still unknown whether it could be completed. After all, at that time, whether or not the Zhang Clan was willing to set aside their own business was all a matter of a single sentence from First Lady Zhang, and to put it bluntly, it all depended on Zhang First Lady's mood.

For this, it was impossible for Qin Wuya to not be nervous, furthermore, this transaction at that time would indeed affect her and Manager Wu's future livelihood.

As for the situation this time, it was different.

Although the prestige of the Cloud Prefecture's Bai Family was much higher than the Zhang Family, but the Bai Family had deliberately relied on the Zhang Family to inquire about this transaction, and the letter that had been sent beforehand had already stated that the manager who was responsible for the negotiations would bring along the deed and the deposit.

In other words, as long as there weren't any big problems in principle, this transaction would be a foregone conclusion.

If not for the fact that Manager Wu intentionally allowed Qin Wuya to interact more with the stewards of the various families, it was likely that the business would have been settled if Qin Wuya had not come today.

Thinking about that, Qin Wuya went to the entrance of the private room, and coincidentally met a servant who brought him tea, saving him the effort of knocking on the door again.

As he walked in, Qin Wuya saw that the Manager Wu was chatting happily with the old man with the white beard.

The old man looked to be in high spirits, appearing to be in his fifties or sixties. Only his hair and eyebrows were snow-white, and from the looks of it, he seemed to be in his seventies.

But no matter which one it was, it still left Qin Wuya a little shocked.

After all, although the journey from the Cloud Prefecture to the Clear Water Town was not considered a long trek, it was still not that easy.

Only after Qin Wuya thought about it carefully, did she finally understand. For large families like the Bai, Duan, and Zhang families, probably even the head of the Qinshan Mountains would not dare to offend them.

This could also explain why he only walked once and coincidentally encountered the bandits. However, the two Duan siblings didn't seem to have any problems with each other every so often.

Just as Qin Wuya was sizing up the old man, Manager Wu and the white bearded old man also felt that there was a third person in the private room at the same time.

Manager Wu turned and saw that it was Qin Wuya. He could not help but laugh, obviously he was apologetic about not being able to inform Qin Wuya about it last night, but Manager Wu did not say anything about it, and only greeted him: Qin Yatou, can you pass on food today?

"Not yet. I thought I couldn't delay my husband so I rushed over early. I didn't expect that Chief Steward Bai would come so early."

Although there were already some waiters downstairs who had said that the steward of the Bai Clan would arrive yesterday night, there were some things that would be best left unanswered even if he knew. Thus, Qin Wuya could only smile and greet the Manager Wu, while politely nodding towards the steward of the Bai Clan.

"This must be Manager Qin."

During the conversation between Qin Wuya and the Manager Wu, the Chief Steward of the Bai Family, Bai Qingnian, had naturally set his gaze on Qin Wuya. When he saw Qin Wuya's appearance clearly, he could not help but be slightly shocked.

Before he came, Bai Qingnian had naturally asked the micros sent over from the Zhang Family, and knew that there were two shopkeepers behind the cake shop, one surnamed Wu was the shopkeeper of the Guest Home Resturant, the other surnamed Qin, I heard that it was a woman.

Because of this, Bai Qingnian always thought that he was a woman who was not young at all. He never expected that today, he was actually a little girl who was not even twenty years old.

This change made Bai Qingnian feel that it was more interesting besides being shocked. But even so, Bai Qingnian's face did not reveal any expression that was inappropriate. He only politely smiled back at Qin Wuya and praised:

"Shopkeeper Qin is able to do business so well at such a young age. He is truly heroic and unyielding."

"Chief Steward Bai, you flatter me. This little girl does not dare to accept it. "

Qin Wuya was actually not someone who was very good at observation, but from the situation just now, she could see that even though the Bai Clan Chief's words were complimented, her expression was not ordinary. There was even a hint of ridicule on her face, clearly showing that the other party had looked down on him when she saw that she was still young and was just a young girl.

Of course, Qin Wuya didn't feel that it was difficult at all.

With her current age and image, it was hard to avoid her being looked down upon. If she were to trade with a teenage child in a role exchange, it would be difficult to achieve true trust and respect.

"Why wouldn't I dare? You little girl, you are good at business, but you are much better than me in the first place." If you don't deserve it, then there is still that girl who dares to be called a woman. "I remember …"

Qin Wuya was polite, but Manager Wu was unexpectedly rude.

On the contrary, as if he had found out what Qin Wuya had done before on purpose, praised him internally and externally, to the point that Qin Wuya was dumbstruck. She did not understand what had happened, and could only stare blankly at Manager Wu, hoping to find some clues from his happy face.

But very clearly, the Manager Wu did not take Qin Wuya's hint seriously, or it could be said that even if he saw it, he did not see it.

This made Qin Wuya, whose face was not thick in the first place, blush awkwardly, and she did not know how to reply.
