Hong Ling smiled awkwardly and turned her head away, as if she did not want to have anything to do with her master.

Shen Miao chuckled. “It seems like Shopkeeper Ji isn’t here to do business.” With that, she stood up, ready to leave.

“Hey!” Ji Yushu panicked. “Miss Shen, what’s the hurry? Let’s talk business now.”

Only then did Shen Miao stop.

Ji Yushu muttered to himself, “She looks gentle, but why is she so bad-tempered…” When he noticed that Shen Miao was fixing her eyes on him, he immediately sat up straight and said,” Miss Shen, I gather that you want to sell information related to the case of the Chen family in Yuzhou. I must say something. Three years ago, you were only eleven. How did you know about this? ”

“My information can’t be faked. The person selling the information and the person buying the information will have to meet eventually. Whether it’s real or fake, it will be up to the buyer to decide. What is Shopkeeper Ji worried about?”

As soon as she said that, Hong Ling and Ji Yushu paused in shock at the same time and looked at Shen Miao inquisitively. From Shen Miao’s tone, it was as if she knew every step of the procedure. However, Hong Ling and Ji Yushu were sure that Shen Miao had never been here before.

“Ahem, that’s true… but how did Miss Shen know about the business we are doing here?” Ji Yushu asked again.

“I heard about it, so I came to give it a try,” Shen Miao replied truthfully.

Ji Yushu asked, “Then how much do you want to sell this information for?”

The person who bought the information would have to pay the money. A portion of it would be given to the person who sold the information, and a portion would be given to the middle-man, All Knowing Scholar.

“After that, I want to buy some information. If Shopkeeper Ji has the information I want, I won’t take a single cent from the Chen family.”

For many years, Hong Ling had been the one managing the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop. He was just a boss in name. This was a profitable and simple business that relied entirely on connections.

“Miss Shen, what information are you after? Looks like it’s gonna be something big. I don’t think we can’t help you find the information you want anytime soon.”

“If Shopkeeper Ji wants to cooperate, you can provide me the information right here right now,” Shen Miao said.

“What does this have to do with me wanting to cooperate or not?” Ji Yushu widened his eyes. “I’m not a seller. I’m just a middle-man.”

“The information I want is about Prince Yu wanting to rebel. However, this news is not for me but for the Ming Qi’s royal family. Shopkeeper Ji, do you understand what I’m saying?”

Ji Yushu was shocked by the words she said and almost fell over his chair. He looked at Shen Miao like she was crazy. Hong Ling also widened her eyes and felt stupefied while listening to Shen Miao utter these cheacherous words.

The tearoom suddenly fell into silence. When the incense was almost burned, Ji Yushu said, “Hong Ling, bring them out.”

Hong Ling quickly brought the servant girls out. Before she left, she glanced at Shen Miao and saw her picking up the teacup with a calm expression.

“Miss Shen.” Ji Yushu said, “You’re not buying information. You’re making news.”
