    157. Transfer

    The woman smiled at them and bowed slightly, as if to salute, and Shen Qinglan returned the salute.Fang Tong followed Shen Qinglan’s movements.

    There was a set of tea sets on the tea banquet in front of them. Fang Tong had not studied these and could not name the tea sets. He just thought they looked very beautiful.

    The woman did not speak, but picked up the kettle on the tea table and started making tea.

    Fang Tong saw that Shen Qinglan didn’t speak, so he sat there quietly and watched the woman’s movements.

    Her movements were very graceful, like flowing water. It was the first time that Fang Tong saw someone who could even make tea with such a beautiful posture. She was really a woman with elegance in her bones, not the elegance of the upper class, but like an ancient noble lady, with innate nobility and elegance. Such elegance was engraved in her bones and reflected in her every move.

    After a while, the woman handed a cup of tea to Shen Qinglan. Shen Qinglan bent the index and middle fingers of her right hand and tapped it twice on the table. Fang Tong knew that this meant thanking her, so he imitated her and thanked the woman.

    The woman still had a gentle smile on her face and gestured to them.

    Shen Qinglan held the tea cup, smelled it, and then took a sip, “Madam’s tea art is becoming more and more exquisite.”

    The woman chuckled, “You haven’t been here for a long time. If I hadn’t called you this time, wouldn’t you have planned to come to me?”

    Shen Qinglan curled her lips slightly, and Fang Tong was surprised to find that there was a faint smile on Shen Qinglan’s face, and there was no trace of coldness. “I originally planned to come to see you years ago, but you called first.”

    “I remember hearing you say a year ago that it would be good to open a teahouse like this in the future if nothing happens.”

    “It’s rare that Madam still remembers.” Shen Qinglan smiled lightly and her tone was gentle.

    The woman also laughed. Seeing that Shen Qinglan’s cup was empty, she gave her another cup, “I just wonder if you still have such thoughts now?”

    Shen Qinglan thanked her and lightly opened her red lips, “I thought I made it obvious.”

    Fang Tong didn’t understand at first that Shen Qinglan had agreed to visit the store, but now he was visiting an old friend for tea. After hearing what this woman said, he understood a little better.Just don’t you mean opening a coffee shop?

    “This time it’s also because my husband is going abroad, and I have to accompany him, otherwise I really don’t want to transfer the store that grandpa left me.” The woman spoke with a touch of reluctance in her tone.

    This teahouse has been run since her grandfather’s generation. She grew up in this teahouse and took over this teahouse from her grandfather. The relationship has been deep for decades.

    But her husband, daughter and son are all going to settle abroad, and she can’t stay here alone. Even if she doesn’t want to let go, she has no choice but to let go.

    “Madam, you can trust me to leave this teahouse to me?” Shen Qinglan asked lightly, with an element of joking.

    The woman chuckled lightly, “Why don’t I worry about leaving it to you? Although we have not known each other for a long time, it is fate after all. Among the people I know, you are probably the most trustworthy person for me. If I give it to you, maybe I can feel less reluctant to part with it.”

    She met Shen Qinglan by chance, but they felt like old friends at first sight. Although Shen Qinglan rarely came here, the friendship between the two was indeed not shallow.

    Shen Qinglan smiled lightly, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.

    After the serious talk was over, the woman looked at Fang Tong and said, “You are Qinglan’s friend, right?”

    Fang Tong nodded, “I am Qinglan’s roommate and her friend.”

    The woman smiled, “This is the first time I’ve seen her bring her friends here. Every time she comes here, she’s always alone. By the way, we have some good snacks here, you can try them.”

    The woman pressed a button on the tea mat, and the door of the tea room opened quickly. The man who just led them in opened the door and looked inside.

    “Bring in some plates of pastries, not too sweet.”

    The man came back quickly, holding a tray with several plates of exquisite snacks on it. He put the snacks away one by one, and then withdrew again.

    “You can try it, it tastes good.” The woman looked at Fang Tong with a smile.

    For some reason, Fang Tong was always very reserved when facing this woman.

    “Thank you.” Fang Tong thanked him, then picked up a piece of pastry and put it into his mouth. The pastries here are made very small, and you can only take a small bite, so you don’t have to worry about smearing your lip makeup.

    The cake was sweet but not greasy, and there was still a fragrance after entering the mouth. It seemed to be apricot blossom cake. The fragrance of apricot blossom spread in his mouth, and Fang Tong couldn’t help but take another piece.

    “Don’t you want to try it?” The woman looked at Shen Qinglan.

    Shen Qinglan shook her head, she didn’t like these pastries, and the woman knew it, but she didn’t force it.

    “I won’t take away the people here. If you can use them, keep them. If you think they can’t be used, you can find them again. You don’t have to worry about my face.” The woman said,

    “Let’s use those people. I trust your vision. I don’t have the time or energy to find more people.” Shen Qinglan said.

    The woman knew this would be the case, and was not surprised. Instead, she took out a document and said, “I will explain it to them later. This document is a transfer contract. See if you have any objections.”

    Shen Qinglan took it over, flipped it over, paused at the price, and pointed with his finger. The woman took a look and said, “If you are not satisfied, I can give it a little less.”

    Shen Qinglan shook his head, “You underpaid.” In such a location, a woman only asked for 8 million, which was half for sale and half for free. Even if she sold for 20 million, there would still be people rushing to get it. After all, this courtyard house alone is more than this price, not to mention the decoration of this teahouse. You can tell at a glance that a lot of money went into it.

    Hearing this, the woman smiled and said, “Others are counter-offering, but you are good at urging the seller to increase the price. I’m a little worried now that if I leave this teahouse to you, it will close down soon.”

    “It’s very possible,” Shen Qinglan said lightly, “So do you want to reconsider?”

    The woman smiled and shook her head, “It’s up to you.” It was just a joke, and no one took it seriously.

    Shen Qinglan said nothing more, took the pen handed to her by the woman, turned to the end, and signed her name neatly.

    The woman put the documents away and said, “I will have the remaining procedures completed as soon as possible and then call you.”

    Shen Qinglan nodded obediently.

    The woman spoke again, “I will also say hello to the supplier. They are all good friends who have cooperated for many years. For my sake, the quality is absolutely guaranteed. You can rest assured about this.”

    “I have nothing to worry about, madam,” Shen Qinglan said with a smile.The light fragrance of tea spread in the tea room, and Fang Tong suddenly felt that the clear waves at this moment were as gentle as the spring breeze.
