ch 53.1 - Big News (1/2)

“We will see.” Cheng Xiao Xiao did not agree right away but gave an obscure answer.

Deacon Bai was a bit surprised, but didn’t say anything. They couldn’t afford to offend the Cheng’s.

They sold them the 300 mythical animals raised in the ranch, loaded them all into 5 separate horse-drawn carriages along with 100 jin of rice. They received 8,000 taels of silver. Not too low, but not too high either.

Seeing them off, Cheng Biyuan patted the stack of bank notes he had put away in the inner pocket and smiled happily. Mrs. Cheng smiled tenderly and Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled lightly.

With these bank notes, they could now afford anything they needed.

Ko Yang nodded with a helpless look, “Yes, it’s true. I saw it with my own eyes. Innkeeper Zhu brought people with him today to the Cheng’s and purchased all of their mythical animals, almost 300 of them filling 5 carriages!”

“They….” Old man Ning had another comment to make but he stopped himself.

If they didn’t completely destroy the relation with the Cheng’s, they could certainly be able to claim some of those mythical animals. He would be lying to say he didn’t regret. But what good would regretting do now?

The Ning’s was pretty much on the Cheng’s black list!

Naturally, Ko Yang could see the regret on his master. He sighed inwardly and felt unresigned. But what could he do? Their young master was so ridiculous that he thought he could just storm in and took the Cheng’s properties. That wouldn’t have been easy.

Both the master and the servant felt unresigned. Ko Yang struggled with himself before he gritted his teeth and said, “Master, are we just going to back off like this?”

“Ugh…” Old man Ning looked up, he was a bit surprised by Ko Yang’s words, “What else could we do other than waiting for the representatives from School of Divine Condor?”
