This guy who asked about the price obviously did not have the ability to redeem the store. The shopkeeper has been running the store for so many years, and his eyes are very vicious, and he is very accurate in judging people. He can tell at a glance who has this ability and who is just a talker. Come out with seven, seven or eight.
The person who asked about the price almost had the words "the middleman makes the difference" written on his face. The shopkeeper was in a bad mood, so naturally he didn't have a good attitude toward him.
The man was not annoyed, and said with a playful smile: "Shopkeeper, you don't care whether I am a pimp or not. The key is how much money you want to exchange. The sale and purchase are all negotiated. Even if I am a pimp, I can get you a price you are satisfied with." Only if the price is not reached, the store is still yours, and I can’t rob you, right? In the final analysis, it’s just the price? Who is selling it? Don’t underestimate us middlemen, we might be able to negotiate a comparison What about the higher price you expect?”
The shopkeeper was originally angry, but after listening to this man's explanation, he felt that it made some sense. What he wanted was the final price, so what did it matter if it was a middleman? As long as it reached his psychological price, he would sell the store and sell it himself. Wouldn’t it be nice to use money for retirement?
The man looked at his words and knew that the shopkeeper was a little moved, so he laughed and said: "Shopkeeper, if it's inconvenient, let's take a step to talk."
The shopkeeper was shrewd and refused to discuss the price with this person in private. Apparently he felt that if he discussed his psychological price in public, everyone could bid. If he talked in private, he would be more likely to be lowered by the other party or even deceived by the other party. He could We all know how capable these middlemen are of deceiving people.
"There's no need to take a step to talk. I'm getting older, and I've been thinking about exchanging the store for my pension for the past two years. It just so happens that I've been annoyed by these yamen during this time. I'm an old man and I'm not good at dealing with these things. When dealing with an official, if you find someone who can handle it, you might be able to run this tavern better. If you want to be a middleman and earn some intermediary fees, I have no objection. The storefront of this tavern is mine, and all the equipment in it is mine. They are all mine. Whoever bids 80,000 silver coins, I will pay. Of course, the wine in my tavern has an exclusive secret brewing recipe. If you want the secret recipe, the price of the secret recipe will have to be calculated separately. The secret recipe is priced at one price, and another price is paid. Add 50,000. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want the secret recipe. I’ll just take the 80,000 silver coins. I, an old man, will leave empty-handed.”
Eighty thousand silver coins, if you want to say it is a lot, it is not much, but if you want to say it is a small amount, it is definitely a lot.
Of course, everyone owns the store. Just such a large store in this location is worth forty or fifty thousand silver coins. In addition, the pub has been a long-established brand and its signboard is worth twenty thousand. In addition, equipment and tools and other belongings , the total price of 80,000 is actually not a false price.
But as a middleman, naturally he would not agree so readily.
He smiled and said: "Old shopkeeper, this price is a bit dishonest? You are making a sudden change. You can't just pay the market price. Moreover, your price is not just the market price, but there is actually some premium. The current environment is like this It’s complicated, and 80,000 silver coins is a bit too much.”
When it comes to his own interests, the old shopkeeper refuses to give in: "If it weren't for the complicated environment, you wouldn't even think of me taking action, let alone 80,000 or 100,000. My store is an old sign, and everyone can see how the business is doing. At which point is there no one in the store? During busy periods, it is always full and the tables are constantly changing.”
The middleman chuckled and said, "Business is good, but the major yamen are busy with their business. Most people really can't handle it."
"Business depends on everyone. Anyone who dares to take over must have the ability to handle these. Just because the old man like me can't handle it doesn't mean that the new boss can't handle it. If there are official connections and can handle these miscellaneous things, my store will
If you redeem it, you can make money by lying down. I’m not exaggerating at all.”
"Haha, then it must be your secret recipe, it must be your wine. If I don't buy your secret recipe, I will have to buy additional drinks. It's hard to say whether this customer base will always be prosperous."
"Isn't it easy to get the secret recipe? Add another 50,000 yuan. This price is already a breaking price. If I didn't want to retire, I wouldn't even pay 100,000 yuan to buy my secret recipe. If we don't have something exclusive about this wine,
Can we have so many repeat customers?”
The wine is good, and most of the customers in the store come here for the wine. No one can deny this.
A waiter said: "Someone offered us 100,000 yuan to buy our shopkeeper's secret recipe, but my shopkeeper really didn't sell it."
The middleman just laughed, but obviously still didn't approve of the price.
When Jiang Yue sat down at the table, Ah Piao sighed: "The business of this store is really good. I once estimated that the shopkeeper would definitely be able to earn thirty to fifty thousand a year. This is still a conservative estimate. If my Ah Piao had
This money must be redeemed. It will be repaid within two years. The rest will be earned. It’s a pity, a pity.”
Jiang Yue smiled and said, "You go and talk."
"Me? I'll take the lead in the negotiation? People will see me as a poor loser and won't pay attention to me at all."
"I asked you to talk, can I still joke with you?" Jiang Yue said lightly.
Ah Piao looked at Jiang Yue in surprise: "You...you're not saying you want to cash in on this store, right?"
"What? I can't redeem it? What's the point?" Jiang Yue asked displeasedly.
"It's not that there's anything special about it, it's just...do you really have that much money? Eighty thousand plus fifty thousand, which is 130,000. And there are also labor expenses. If you don't have 200,000, it is very likely that you will take over this store and turn it around.
It won’t open.”
Although Ah Piao has never opened a tavern, he still knows the rules and regulations that exist here.
Making money is indeed making money, it can even be said to be huge profits. But the cost here is really not low. It's not that he looks down on mushroom people, but this deal is really too big.
"Don't look at me. I definitely don't have that much money. But my employer does. Not to mention two hundred thousand, even two million is nothing."
Ah Piao was doubtful: "Are you serious?"
"Let's go and talk. If we can negotiate, I might let you be the shopkeeper once I'm in a good mood."
Ah Piao's eyes suddenly became extremely hot. Being a shopkeeper? Until now, he has only been a waiter.
The shopkeeper was so far away from him that he never even dreamed that he could become the shopkeeper. In his opinion, the shopkeeper was a superior being, an existence that he had never dreamed of getting close to.
Could this mushroom man be joking? Is this huge pie really going to hit me on the head? Ah Piao swallowed hard and stared at Jiang Yue, obviously observing whether the other party was teasing him.
He plays.
"What do you think I'm going to do? As long as you have this ability, it doesn't matter if I hire you as a shopkeeper. But if you can't hold up the wall, then don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
Ah Piao finally heard it. Is this person really serious? He really wants to redeem the store? Moreover, does he really want to promote him, Ah Piao, to be the shopkeeper?
"Brother, this is a big deal. Can you be the boss of your employer?"
"Haha, since I dare to say it, I can do it naturally. I'm afraid that you don't have the ability to be the shopkeeper. If you mess up my business, it won't be good."
"That's impossible. We've never eaten pork, haven't we seen pigs running away? To be a shopkeeper, doesn't it mean that we have to be discerning? Do we have to be good at dealing with people? Do we talk to people and talk to ghosts? We all know these things.
." Ah Piao started boasting.
Jiang Yue chuckled: "You go and negotiate first. This price is not unrealistic. Someone will definitely bid later. I suggest it be first come, first served."
Ah Piao's emotions were completely ignited, thinking that he might jump to the dragon gate and become the shopkeeper. Although the store is not his own, the feeling of standing in front of the counter is definitely enough for him to honor his ancestors.
That belongs to the shopkeeper.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt very motivated.
"Okay, I'll go talk. But what if someone looks down on us... and ignores me?"
"Easy to handle, deposit. Nothing is more convincing than a deposit."
With that said, Jiang Yue waved to Ah Piao, whispered a few words in his ear, and gave him instructions. Ah Piao nodded repeatedly.
After a while, Ah Piao got three thousand silver coins from Jiang Yue. As a deposit, these three thousand silver coins were obviously sincere enough.
There were many people surrounding the shopkeeper at this moment. Ah Piao came over and did not look out of place. However, Ah Piao did not go to the shopkeeper directly, but found a clerk, gave him ten silver coins to spend, and said to the clerk
Muttered a few words.
The guy got his consumption and went away happily.
He came to the shopkeeper and said a few more words in his ear. The shopkeeper was slightly startled, and then showed a little surprise.
"Everyone, excuse me." The shopkeeper said and walked towards the back hall. Ah Piao had been waiting there for a long time.
"Are you trying to cash in on my tavern?" The shopkeeper obviously looked familiar to Ah Piao and knew his general background. He didn't seem like someone with such strength.
Ah Piao knew what the shopkeeper was thinking and put three thousand silver coins on the table: "I am also running errands for others. This is a deposit of three thousand. I sincerely want to talk to the shopkeeper. Please clear the place first and let's talk face to face.
.I have said that as long as the shopkeeper is happy, we will settle the matter today, hand over the money and hand over the store, and we will never play tricks."
Is it so enjoyable?
The shopkeeper really couldn't trust Ah Piao, but he could trust the three thousand silver coins. As Jiang Yue said, nothing is more convincing than a deposit.
No matter how nice your words are, they are not as impactful as real money.
"No tricks?"
"Looking at what you said, are these three thousand silver coins fake?"
The shopkeeper has been dealing with money for half his life, and of course he knows that the silver coins are genuine. He nodded immediately: "Okay, be happy, I will clear the place right away."
With that said, the shopkeeper walked to the front hall and announced that it was not early today and the store was going to close. Thank you to all new and old customers for taking care of you. All drinks will be settled at a 50% discount today.
The middleman was anxious: "Shopkeeper, isn't this a good talk about business? Why is there a discount?"
The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "What day can't we do business? I'm afraid if we don't close today, there will be another round of inspections, which I can't bear."
The store is about to close, so customers can't hang around.
The middleman had no choice but to curse and pay and leave.
In the end, only Jiang Yue and Ah Piao were left. The shopkeeper looked left and right. Why did he feel that neither of them seemed like someone who could negotiate such a big business.
"Are you two trying to cash in on my tavern?" The shopkeeper couldn't help but wrap the three thousand silver coins tighter. He couldn't help but be suspicious. One of them looked like a loser, the other a mushroom man, neither of them looked like those doing business.
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "The shopkeeper doesn't have to judge a book by its appearance. In the final analysis, the middleman is right. You will only sell when the price is in place. As long as you have money, you don't care who he gives it to?"
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, but also laughed: "You're right, you're right. I want to redeem the money in the store, and I am not looking for a son-in-law. Naturally, I will redeem it to whomever has the money. So, do you have the money?"
"Don't worry about the money, shopkeeper. We won't use three thousand deposits to make such a joke with the shopkeeper." Jiang Yue said calmly.
"That's true, let me speak. If the money is not received, the three thousand deposit will not be refunded."
"Of course. However, I intend to buy the shopkeeper's secret recipe. However, I would like to ask the shopkeeper to be a little more accommodating regarding the price. Although your price is quite reasonable, in the final analysis, your store is indeed difficult to
The business environment is complicated, and the shopkeeper also wants to be safe, right? Besides, if you sell the secret recipe to me and go to other places, you can definitely sell it a few times, right?"
The shopkeeper was stunned: "You don't restrict me from selling another one?"
In his opinion, this should not be an exclusive sale. If it is sold once, it cannot be sold again?
"Haha, the inner earth world is so big. As long as we don't compete in this city and sell dozens of products, it won't affect our business here." Jiang Yue was open-minded.
The shopkeeper thought for a moment: "How many dishes will you allow me to sell?"
"I suggest that the shopkeeper sell as many recipes as he can, as long as he doesn't sell them in the same place. Of course, I'm not pretending to be generous, because I can't spend too much money to buy the secret recipe. I just want the right to use it.
, no exclusive use rights.”
"Then how much can you say?"
"Ten thousand gold coins buy the right to use the secret recipe, and I will exchange it for the store's fixed price of 80,000. I won't bargain. I think this price is fair. As for the secret recipe, if the shopkeeper is willing to travel around the inner world and sell it for hundreds of thousands of silver coins,
I think it’s very promising. The old shopkeeper actually doesn’t want to be burdened by opening a tavern anymore. Traveling around the inner world selling secret recipes is definitely a good choice, and it may be more profitable than opening a tavern.”
"Aren't you afraid that if I sell too much, it will affect the business here?"
"As long as it's not a city, the impact of competition is actually minimal."
The old shopkeeper thought about it for a while, and apparently felt that this cooperation method was very novel, but also very attractive. If we really follow this method, selling the secret recipe would be a really big profit point. It would be much more profitable than the exchange shop.
The more he thought about it, the more tempting he found this mushroom man's proposal.
The old shopkeeper was obviously very happy. He slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, this idea you came up with is really not bad. I never thought of it before. It's just a genius. If you are open-minded, I can't help but be honest. In this way, your three thousand deposit,
Just think of it as the fee for the right to use the secret recipe. I won’t charge you ten thousand, but only three thousand. You only need to give me the eighty thousand as the store fee, and the store will be yours!"
