Chapter 918 - 920 Zhenbao Pavilion (4)
"Good!"
Cai Wei agreed immediately, "Tomorrow morning, I will go to your esteemed shop to take inventory. Then we can estimate the value of the goods and discuss further."
After Manager Dong had left, Cai Wei made no delay and went directly to Huo Yuan’s mansion. Huo Yuan had just returned from a trip today, and upon seeing Cai Wei, he was very surprised.
Cai Wei did not stand on ceremony with him and shared her plan to take over the shop and do inventory the next day, asking for his assistance in evaluating the goods.
Having the rare opportunity to be with Cai Wei, Huo Yuan naturally did not decline. He immediately agreed and even said, "Taking over Zhenbao Pavilion isn’t a matter of thirty or fifty thousand silver, if Younger Sister is short on money, I can lend you some."
Cai Wei made a rough estimate, figuring that taking over Zhenbao Pavilion would require about eighty or ninety thousand silver, an amount she could manage, so she declined Huo Yuan’s kind offer.
"Thank you, Big Brother Huo. Your help in taking over the shop is already the greatest assistance to me, as for the rest, I really don’t need it."
Huo Yuan thought it was Nangong Yi who had provided the funds, a glimmer of sadness flickered in his eyes, but the look of loss vanished in a flash, replaced quickly by a warm smile.
"If you really are grateful, how about treating me to dinner tonight?"
