Tan Ron’s health had always been good. Her illness was an accident, and she recovered in less than two days. After she recovered, she returned to the capital with Zhuang Liu.

There were still two days of vacation left, so the two of them planned to take advantage of this time to stroll around the Capital. Tan Rou was going to choose a place to showcase the new products of TR. She didn’t plan to find an agent for the new products in the second half of the year. She was going to be her own agent and build a high-tech mall that belonged to TR.

Zhuang Liu had originally planned to give one of the Zhuang family’s shopping malls to Tan Rou, but Tan Rou did not agree. She did not want to take Zhuang Liu’s things for free. Moreover, the shopping mall that Zhuang Liu gave her might not be satisfactory, so she needed to go to the site to inspect it herself.

The mall that Tan Rou came to today was originally a hodgepodge mall. There was everything inside. Not only were there floors for eating and drinking, but some floors sold luxury goods. The owner of this mall was not doing well and planned to sell the mall. However, such a big mall could only be bought by ordinary people, so it had not been sold until now.

When he heard that Tan Rou wanted to buy it, the boss immediately brought Tan Rou to the office. He wanted her to sign the contract today. Tan Rou didn’t like to hear people promoting her, so she didn’t let the boss continue to follow her. Instead, she and Zhuang Liu visited the mall together.

“This floor can accommodate small robots.” Zhuang Liu pointed to the second floor and said, “The product is relatively small and light. It’s more convenient to transport.”

“You can put lighter and smaller products on the higher floors,” Tan Rou continued.

Neither of them were children who knew nothing. When they talked about work, they did not have the slightest intention of teasing. They were both very serious.

As they chatted, they suddenly saw a very familiar person standing in front of the luxury goods counter. The person was holding two bags in his hands. They didn’t know if he was here to buy or sell bags.

“Meng Xiao?” Tan Rou was a little puzzled. “I haven’t seen her in a long time. I didn’t expect to see her here.”

A few years ago, Zhuang Liu plotted to hinder the Meng family’s business. Although he did not directly make the Meng family disappear, from then on, the Meng family was no longer famous in the Capital. After the decline of the Meng family, Old Master Meng made himself sick with anger. Then, the other members of the Meng family wanted to divide the Meng family. Unfortunately, Old Master Meng was still alive, and the Meng family was still around. It was just that it was not as good as before.

Zhuang Liu did not want to kill an old man, so he let the Meng family off.

As expected, Meng Xiao was here to sell things. She wanted to sell all the luxury goods she had bought before. However, luxury goods like bags could not maintain their value. In a few years, they would not be worth much.

“I’m sorry, Miss Meng. We can’t give you this bag at a 10% discount. If you insist on having such a high recycling price, then you can go to another counter,” the counter lady said with a smile.

“How much can you give me?” Meng Xiao asked anxiously.

The lady at the counter still had that decent smile on her face. “Miss Meng, these two bags are from five years ago, so we can only give you 30% off the original price in cash.”

Meng Xiao was very agitated. “How could they be worth so much? When I bought it, I spent more than 200,000 yuan. I can only get a discount of 60,000 now?”

“That’s right.”

“If you agree to this price, I’ll go through the procedures for you now.”

Meng Xiao’s expression was very conflicted. She finally took her bag back.

“Let me think about it.”

“Alright, Miss Meng. Take care.” The counter sister nodded.

Meng Xiao left dejectedly. When she turned around, she saw Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou standing there. The two of them were still holding iced coffee in their hands. They seemed to be shopping.

“Alright… What a coincidence to meet you guys.” An awkward expression appeared on Meng Xiao’s face.

Tan Rou did not have a good impression of Meng Xiao. After all, they had a bad relationship the first time they met. However, she later heard from Zhuang Liu that Meng Xiao was going against her grandfather, so she still admired Meng Xiao a little.

“Why are you here?” Tan Rou asked.

Meng Xiao smiled bitterly and suddenly looked up. “I’m here to sell bags, but the price is not ideal. I originally thought that this mall was about to close down, so the price of the goods could be higher. I didn’t expect the price here to be lower than other places. I can’t sell them at all.”

“Are you short of money now?” Tan Rou did not understand. Although Meng Xiao did not get much money when she left the Meng family, she still had other assets. How did she end up selling things?
