Chapter 520: Lowering the Price

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ning Yue took a deep breath. When she looked at the refugees, she had already changed to a gentle smile. Actually, the refugees had just been used, so she didn’t argue with them.

“Your Highness, no matter if it’s work or food, we don’t want it anymore. No more!” As they spoke, the refugees trembled and were about to get up and kneel.

The change just now made them even more afraid.

They did not want to be sent to the palace. They just wanted to live well.

Ning Yue waved her hand. “Everyone, don’t panic. I just can’t bear to see you being used. I sympathize with your encounter.”

With that, Ning Yue glanced at the refugees. “You heard it just now. Prince Jin really can’t help so many refugees in the world, but since you’re already here, I can’t bear not to help you.”

“This time, I’ll pawn the dowry my uncle gave me. I’ll give you as much as I can.” Ning Yue sighed.

Although she pitied these refugees, she could not be kind. If she helped them this time, what about the next time?

She didn’t have that much money to help them. Her abilities were limited, and there was a limit to what she could do.

At this moment, Uncle Su had already brought out the things with the servants. He smiled and said, “Princess, the things you wanted have been brought over.”

Actually, those merchants had tricked Jiang Ying into buying these things in the name of a charity auction.

Although these things were not expensive, they were big, cumbersome, and not practical.

He didn’t know what to do. He had also advised Jiang Ying, but Jiang Ying said that as long as they used the money to help others, he didn’t mind.

However, as time passed, they would not be able to make ends meet. If not for Ning Yue, he did not know what would have happened to their heir.

Ning Yue thought for a moment and brought the guards and refugees to the shop that had tricked Jiang Ying into buying useless things.

Along the way, the commoners were very curious. What was going on? They knew that the woman at the front was the future heiress of Prince Jin’s Residence. Behind her were the refugees in shabby clothes.

Therefore, there were more and more onlookers. Ning Yue walked into the shop and asked the shopkeeper, “Shopkeeper, how much are these things worth?”

Ning Yue gave Uncle Su a look. Uncle Su got someone to carry the things to the shop and even introduced when, where, and how these things had been obtained.

The shopkeeper was stunned. No wonder these things looked a little familiar. So they were large items that were bought from his store!

While the shopkeeper was in a daze, more and more things were piled up in the shop.

The shopkeeper was about to cry. There were many things, big and gorgeous, but they were not practical. They were also very cumbersome. Those that had been used could not be sold at all.

If it were an ordinary person, he could have rejected them directly, but the person who came was from Prince Jin’s Residence. He did not dare!

Back then, in order to let Jiang Ying participate in his charity auction, he had described the commoners living in the slums very miserably and even told Jiang Ying that these things were very useful.

If he didn’t accept them now, wouldn’t that be equivalent to saying that he had deceived the heir?

Deception was a serious crime!

What should he do?

“Princess…” The shopkeeper was about to speak when Ning Yue suddenly cried. Even Uncle Su was shocked.

“Shopkeeper, look at these refugees. They’re really too pitiful. I really want to help them, but my ability is limited. I’ve already taken out the most valuable things in the Prince Jin’s Residence. Back then, you told the Heir that these things were very good and very useful. We didn’t use them when we brought them back to the Prince Jin’s Residence. They’re all brand new. I’ll sell them to you just like that. These refugees are really too pitiful!” Ning Yue said as she cried.

The shopkeeper’s lips couldn’t help but twitch. He wanted to reject Ning Yue directly. Even if he had to accept these things in the end, he had to lower the price. At least he wouldn’t lose money.

However, since Ning Yue had already said so, what else could he say?

If he really wanted to lower the price, he could forget about living. Just the saliva of the entire capital’s commoners could drown him.

He would eat the bitter fruits he had planted!

The shopkeeper swallowed and said, “Princess, the price of these things with the Heir back then was about 10,000 taels in total. However, no matter what, you took them back. Even if they’re useless, they’ll be damaged. Therefore, I can only take these things back with 7,000 taels of silver..”
