Chapter 113 Bargain
Since Ling Tianyi saw a lecher tease a girl on the bus, he was worried about Xia Xiaoluo. Once he thought that Xia Xiaoluo went to school by bus, he was worried.
“Well, darling, I will not go to school by bus.” Xia Xiaoluo did not want to argue with Ling Tianyi over small things. She knew if they quarreled, she would be injured.
“I will buy an automatic car for you.” Ling Tianyi said gently. He was glad to hear that Xia Xiaoluo would not go to school by bus.
“Darling, we can go shopping by subway.” Xia Xiaoluo pointed at the subway station.
Ling Tianyi was very angry at once. He thought that Xia Xiaoluo did it deliberately. Buses and subway were not safe.
“Xia Xiaoluo, what are you thinking about? There is no difference between subway and bus. You’re not allowed to take the subway either.” Although Ling Tianyi tried to suppress his anger, his voice was still very loud.
“Darling, subway is faster than bus, and there is no traffic jam.” Xia Xiaoluo said.
“There will be lechers on the subway, too!” Ling Tianyi was very angry because Xia Xiaoluo could not understand his intention.
Xia Xiaoluo looked at the entrance of the subway station. She looked at Ling Tianyi, who was suppressing his anger with a deep breath. If they didn’t take the subway, it was not easy to take a taxi here. Ling Tianyi would not agree to go shopping by bus. Finally, Xia Xiaoluo took Ling Tianyi’s arms and said, “Darling, you protect me today, so the lecher dares not to tease me. I promise you that it is the last time for me to take the subway.”
Ling Tianyi did not speak, so Xia Xiaoluo shook Ling Tianyi’s arms again, “Darling, you promised to let me be a tour guide today. Anyway, no one dares to bully me as long as you are there. It’s the last time, OK?”
Ling Tianyi couldn’t bear to refuse her, he nodded helplessly. Xia Xiaoluo became excited immediately and took Ling Tianyi to buy subway tickets.
“Can’t you use your card?” Ling Tianyi asked when he was waiting in line. He felt that it was shameful for the richest man in A City to buy a ticket at the subway station.
“It’s not convenient to take the subway from the apartment to the school, so I didn’t charge the card. Now many Ticket Vending Machines are available for people to buy tickets by themselves. Darling, it must be your first time to go to the subway station.” Xia Xiaoluo said.
“Yes!” Ling Tianyi recalled his life, and realized he had never taken the bus or subway.
“Here’s your ticket.” Xia Xiaoluo handed the ticket to him, and put a few coins in her bag.
“Darling, don’t lose your card, or you can’t get out.” Xia Xiaoluo said.
“I won’t lose anything.” Ling Tianyi said. If someone dared to stop him, he would destroy the subway station.
Even if it was not in rush hour, the subway was still crowded. Ling Tianyi protected Xia Xiaoluo and looked forward to getting off the subway as soon as possible.
Xia Xiaoluo saw that Ling Tianyi was unhappy and his forehead was sweating. “Darling, what’s wrong with you?” She asked.
“I’m fine! I think there are too many people here!” Ling Tianyi said.
“It’s nothing. If it’s in rush hour, whether you take the bus or the subway, it will be very difficult to get on.” Xia Xiaoluo said. Then she told Ling Tianyi the experience that she was caught by the door of the bus, and the experience that she could not catch the bus.
Ling Tianyi felt sad because he knew that Xia Xiaoluo lived a hard life in the past.
“Darling, when we come back from the trip, you have to get your driver’s license as soon as possible. Then you don’t have to go to school by bus or subway.” Ling Tianyi said.
“Darling, I have a question.” Xia Xiaoluo said with a smile. She looked around and whispered to Ling Tianyi, “Darling, if I have a baby, do I have to learn driving?”
When Xia Xiaoluo mentioned the baby, Ling Tianyi immediately got excited. He bowed his head in Xia Xiaoluo’s ears and said, “If we have a baby, I will be your driver and bodyguard every day. Learning to drive is not so important, you can learn it later. However, this is just a hypothesis. But I really hope we can have a baby during these days.”
“Darling, it’s not good!” Xia Xiaoluo said suddenly.
“What’s wrong?” Ling Tianyi asked with confusion.
“Darling, we just forgot to get off the subway.” Xia Xiaoluo said with frustration.
“It doesn’t matter. Just take another subway.” Ling Tianyi said calmly.
When the subway stopped again, they got off and returned by another one. “Darling, we haven’t bought tickets yet!” Ling Tianyi said.
“Darling, the subway uses Unified Ticket system! As long as you buy a ticket and do not go out, you can take the subway for many times.” Xia Xiaoluo said excitedly, as if she got a good deal. Ling Tianyi became speechless at once. In fact, he really didn’t understand the ticket price of the subway.
Finally, Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo came out of the subway station. When they saw the people coming and going in the street, they felt much better.
“Darling, if we go through this alley, there is a deserted car park behind us, where you can buy a lot of souvenirs. I used to come here, but I don’t know the name of the place.” Xia Xiaoluo began to introduce, as if she was a tour guide.
Although Ling Tianyi didn’t like Xia Xiaoluo to buy cheap things, he still followed her all the way.
Ling Tianyi saw that the deserted car park was close to the bus stop and subway station. Although it was not as prosperous as the main city, there were also department stores and supermarkets around so it was convenient to go. If they could buy the slum houses around the alley together with this deserted car park, he could build an economical small-sized residential district, attracting young people. Or they could build large business centers instead of residential houses, it was also a good choice.
“Darling, darling…” Xia Xiaoluo spoke to Ling Tianyi, but Ling Tianyi seemed not to hear, he was conceiving his business plan.
“Darling!” Xia Xiaoluo slapped the shoulders of Ling Tianyi.
“What’s the matter, darling?” Ling Tianyi asked gently.
“Darling, what are you thinking about? I’d been talking to you for a long time, but you ignored me.” Xia Xiaoluo muttered.
“Oh, nothing. I am thinking about something. Darling, what’s wrong?” Ling Tianyi asked.
“Darling, there are pearls. It must be nice to buy pearl necklaces for your friend’s wife and grand-daughter! They live on the grassland and they have never been to the sea. Then we can give his grandson an artifact made of shells. Of course, we can also buy a few more handicrafts for ourselves.” Xia Xiaoluo went to a stall selling pearls and shells with Ling Tianyi.
As soon as the stall owner saw them, he immediately said, “Pearl necklaces are not so expensive, you can choose them as you like!”
“Darling, it’s a good idea. I think we’d better go to the shopping malls or jewelry stores to buy pearls.” Ling Tianyi thought that these things were too cheap to be used as gifts.
“How much is it?” Xia Xiaoluo completely ignored Ling Tianyi’s words, she began to ask the owner about the price.
“Beauty, you really have a good taste. It is the most beautiful pearl necklace here. This pearl necklace suits you very well. It costs 180 yuan, but now I sell it to you for 120 yuan. Don’t tell anyone the price! I won’t sell it to anyone else at this price.” The owner of the stall said reluctantly.
Xia Xiaoluo did not believe the cunning peddler, she immediately said, “120 yuan? Impossible. I’ll only spend 10 yuan on this necklace.”
“Beauty, 10 yuan is just the price of a pearl pendant. I can sell you this pendant for 10 yuan. Do you want it?” The owner of the stall took a pendant to Xia Xiaoluo, but Xia Xiaoluo shook her head and said, “I want this necklace. 10 yuan.”
“Beauty, 10 yuan is too cheap, Can we make it higher” The peddler said in a sad voice, as if Xia Xiaoluo’s bargaining made him lose money.
“20 yuan!” Xia Xiaoluo said.
“100 yuan, the lucky number.” The peddler tried to raise the price.
“30 yuan, this is my bottom-line.” Xia Xiaoluo said. She knew that Dou Ya bought a similar necklace for 35 yuan. Only when she bought it for 30 Yuan, could she show off to Dou Ya.
“30 yuan is not even enough for the cost. Beauty, are you kidding me? Well, I will give you a discount and sell it to you for 60 yuan.” The peddler once again reduced the price, but Xia Xiaoluo was not satisfied.
“I won’t buy it.” Xia Xiaoluo stood up and patted her calves with her hands, and then pulled Ling Tianyi to leave.
“50 yuan!”
“40 yuan!” The peddler continued to say.
“Come back, beauty. It’s only 30 yuan, and I’ll sell it to you.”
When the peddler saw them leave, he hurriedly agreed the price of 30 yuan.
Xia Xiaoluo was very happy. She stuck out her tongue at Ling Tianyi, which meant she succeeded, and then looked for the wallet from her bag. At this time, Ling Tianyi took out a hundred-Yuan bill and handed it to the peddler, “Take it! Keep the change!”
“No, you have to give me the change!” Xia Xiaoluo was in a hurry. It was so difficult for her to cut the price, so she couldn’t allow Ling Tianyi to do it.
Finally, Xia Xiaoluo took the change and said, “Darling, you can’t waste money.”
“Darling, you don’t have to save money.” Ling Tianyi said. It was interesting to see Xia Xiaoluo’s bargaining. He even thought that if Xia Xiaoluo was a purchasing agent of the company, the company would certainly save a lot of money.
“Darling, we should use money when necessary.” Xia Xiaoluo looked at the pearl necklace in her hand proudly, “This is for your friend’s wife, and then go to the other place to buy a gift for his grand-daughter.”
“Why don’t you buy it together?” Ling Tianyi asked.
“You are a businessman. Don’t you know such a simple question?” Xia Xiaoluo asked. Suddenly, Ling Tianyi felt very surprised.
