Su Yunjin guessed correctly.
Shopkeeper Liang indeed wouldn't tarnish the reputation of himself and the Rice Shop over Su Yunjin's elder brother alone.
With a darkened face, he remained silent for a moment.
Only then did Shopkeeper Liang squeeze a sentence out from between his teeth.
"Miss Su, my Rice Shop is not a teahouse. It's not a place where you can come and go as you please. Otherwise, do you really think my Rice Shop is afraid of you?"
If he couldn't keep Su Yunjin's elder brother, then scraping some profit off her was the least he would do.
"Miss Su, if you want me to agree to release your elder brother, it's possible! But to redeem his Indenture Contract, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as two taels of silver!"
Having anticipated this sly and slick Shopkeeper's unwillingness to release someone easily, Su Yunjin wasn't very surprised by what Shopkeeper Liang said.
"Shopkeeper Liang, then how much do you want before you're willing to let my elder brother leave?"
