031 The price of dried meat has doubled, and the seller’s antiques have dropped by 70%
Putting aside the thought of upgrading for the time being, Chu Qianqian looked at the three antiques in front of him with some eagerness.
When the Xuande Colorful Flowers and Five Dragons Plate was put into the game, the aperture surrounding Novice Village expanded outward by about ten centimeters.
If the Han jade, Yongle plates, and Southern Song Dynasty flower bowls were included in the game, it would definitely be able to expand by half a meter.
Maybe there is a system monster that happens to be refreshed a few meters away from Novice Village.
More monsters can be spawned every day, and upgrades will be faster in the future.
It’s only 6,700 yuan, don’t say you can’t take it out, even if you can, spend 600 to buy three toys, that’s a stick.
I made an appointment with Old Man Gong to meet in the alley opposite the entrustment store in half an hour.
Chu Xiangqian walked out of the store, took back all the dozen plates and bowls that he had given to Aiguo and Aimin, and asked them to take the boss back to the courtyard with the furniture.
And considering that I am patriotic and don’t have much strength to love the people, I discussed it with the boss and gave him an extra cent to help put all the furniture into the back room.
The boss who had been waiting for a long time was still sulking, but when he heard about the extra cent, his attitude immediately improved.
I hold my heart in my arms and promise to get things done.
Chu Xiangqian gave Aiguo and Aimin 10 yuan, and asked them to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some seasonings, pots, pans, and coal stoves after paying the boss's 3 cents.
If you still have more money, go buy some coal and take it home.
The boss on the side immediately interjected, "Man, I am familiar with this matter. I will take your two brothers to buy things and coal, and I will help you bring them back. How about you give me 5 cents?" p>
What Chu Xiangqian was waiting for was for the boss to take the initiative to speak.
After agreeing and watching the carriage and cart leave, Chu Xiangqian carried a dozen plates and bowls and squatted in the agreed alley to look around.
Go into the alley and put a dozen dishes and dishes into the game warehouse.
Sure enough, the aperture expanded by more than ten centimeters. Listening carefully, you could faintly hear a deer calling outside Xinshou Village.
Chu Xiangqian immediately determined that if he wanted to get out of the Novice Village, he had to put more toys into the game warehouse.
It seems that entrusting the store is not the best way to obtain cultural toys.
After all, the price clearly stated here is the market price.
Just a few things are not something I can bear now.
As I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt something in my mind. There are still many antiques these days that have not only failed to rise in value.
For example, copper coins are also used as copper materials and put into steel-making furnaces in large quantities.
If you pay the copper price yourself, you should be able to get a lot.
After picking out the valuable copper coins, the remaining ones are sold at copper prices, so the investment is actually very low.
Chu Xiangqian immediately decided to try whether his idea was right before considering what to do.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Old Man Gong walking out of the store and winking at him.
Chu Xiangqian hurriedly followed.
Fortunately, Old Man Gong walked for a few minutes and stopped at a noodle stall.
Otherwise, Chu Xiangqian would think that this old guy wanted to rob him.
Like Old Man Gong, he ordered mixed noodles and sat across from each other.
Not long after, Old Man Gong whispered while eating noodles, "Xiao Chu, you should have noticed that I want dried meat?"
Chu Qianqian put down his chopsticks and nodded, not asking nonsense about how to change or what to exchange for dried meat.
Ask directly, "How can I be sure that the writing, calligraphy and painting you gave me are genuine?"
"Simple." Old Man Gong chuckled. "The owners who entrust the store with their treasures to sell on consignment are those on the eighth floor or above. Either they are short of money or their families are short of food.
It's a pity that everyone doesn't have enough to eat these days, so how can there be so much spare money to buy entertainment.
For the piece I am responsible for, I can sell 10 pieces every month, which is already considered too much. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have called you before and thought about asking you to help me complete this month’s sales task.”
Chu Qianqian rolled his eyes at Old Man Gong, "Okay, uncle, let's stop talking nonsense and get straight to the topic."
Old Man Gong once again felt that Chu Xiangqian was a stick, but for Chu Xiangqian, he had read a lot of stories online in his previous life, and made them up in order to buy antiques.
So he didn't want to listen to Old Man Gong telling the cause and effect, or the story behind it.
Old Man Gong had no choice but to say directly, "Let me help you ask the owner of those three treasures. Can we use dried meat instead of money to exchange with them?"
Chu Qianqian was eager for this, looked at Old Man Gong and asked, "How much do you get as a recruitment fee?"
"How about 20%?"
"Not very good." Chu Xiangqian simply took the chopsticks and continued eating.
When Old Man Gong saw this, he also knew that his asking price was too high, "Then 10%."
"What are you thinking about?" Chu Qianqian sneered, "I'll give you half a percent at most, and there's no meat stamp for wolf jerky, which costs 2 yuan a pound."
Old Man Gong suddenly became angry. If he hadn't been calm, he might have called him out directly.
Finally, he suppressed his anger and said in a low voice, "Are you crazy about money? It's only 1 yuan and 50 cents a pound without a ticket on the black market, and it's still a big fat piece of meat."
"Would you like it?" Chu Xiangqian smiled slightly, "Not to mention that dried meat is dense and heavier than fresh meat, so it can be stored for three to five months without any problem.
And for those three treasures, I will only give you 30% of the dried meat. If the owner refuses to sell it, let him keep it for himself."
"You, you", Old Man Gong was dumbfounded by Chu Xiangqian's bargaining.
She secretly said that when she had taken advantage of her, she thought she was quite evil, but she didn’t expect that the kid in front of her was even more evil than herself.
The price of your own goods has doubled, while the seller’s goods have been priced 7 times lower. If this business can really be done, it would be unreasonable.
Wolf meat will definitely not be sold at the same price as fat meat.
Chu Xiangqian sold it for two yuan, which indeed doubled the price.
Just as he was about to retort, he heard Chu Xiangqian say, "Old man Gong, if you don't have the ability, don't take the job. Also, if we can't negotiate this time, you'll pay for it and the food stamps yourself.
If you want to eat for nothing, just dream."
The old man Gong was so angry at these words that he almost threw away his chopsticks.
But this is half done, and it seems that the negotiation has not been completed. You really have to pay for it yourself. If you don't pay, you will lose your own money.
He took a few deep breaths angrily and said, "Master Chu, your price is too low."
"That's easy." Chu Qianqian laughed. "No matter the price, for every treasure I buy, I will give you a pound of dried meat. Or give you half a three-pound pheasant."
Old Man Gong was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that this guy wanted to bargain for him.
Even if the three cargo owners don't agree, I will definitely help them find other sources of dried meat.
After careful calculation, it seems that I have not suffered a loss.
As for whether the seller suffers a loss, what does that have to do with him?
Thinking of this, Gong Changqing chuckled and said, "Second Master Chu, we have agreed, one piece per pound."
Chu nodded forward, secretly thinking that this old man is really a stick.
Each of the three treasures is calculated as 200 yuan. The purchase price of 30% is 60 yuan.
2 pieces of dried meat per pound is 30 pounds.
5% of 30 pounds is 1.5 pounds.
And what I just said was that for every piece of transaction, I would give him 1 catty of dried meat.
Chu Xiangqian believed that Old Man Gong was not that stupid and couldn't even solve such a simple math problem.
But if he thought that he could find inferior or even junk goods to fool him, he would have made a mistake.
