Wufu's calling of "swindler" nearly made Shopkeeper Lin fall off his chair; that mouth of hers was really too impolite.
Even so, Shopkeeper Lin shamelessly said, "Swindler, swindler, no merchant succeeds without guile, that's how it is for those of us in business, and the young lady has probably made transactions before, right? You should understand how things are."
Seeing how shrewd she was at such a young age, Shopkeeper Lin didn't believe for a second that this was her first time carving, so it couldn't be her first time trading either!
Wufu smiled and said, "It's true, no merchant succeeds without guile. But I prefer dealing with honest merchants since a deal isn't just a one-time thing, right?"
She spoke sensibly; after all, those in business naturally hoped for long-term relations.
