Chapter 441: Three Thousand Eight Hundred and Eighty-Eight Taels

"This..."

The manager was instantly choked on his own saliva.

He had completely forgotten about this detail, but could he be blamed for it? He had assumed they only wanted to rent his tavern, and he never imagined they would want to buy it.

If they were only renting, he could increase the rent later on.

But if he sold it, he would only get a one-time profit.

"Given that you offered a monthly rent of one hundred taels, you must know the awkward situation this tavern is in, right?" Lin Caisang began to speak again, gently questioning him, just as he was straining his brain to find an explanation.

"Based on this, sir, your tavern may not even attract a buyer at five thousand taels, unless, of course, the buyer is the prefecture magistrate's relative."

After hearing her words, the manager felt like he could vomit blood.
