After discussing in the yard, Xue Chen and the four of them walked back to the main room, where the three businessmen from the southernmost coastal city were discussing the transaction with the locals in somewhat broken Mandarin.
"You have money and goods. You want to demolish the house first to see the quality of the wood? That's not possible. What if the house is demolished and you don't buy it? What if you want to drill holes in the wood?
A hole? That won’t work either!”
Xue Chen took a look, and it seemed that these three people wanted to carefully check the quality of these old house timbers before discussing the sale, but it was obvious that the seller did not agree.
It is obviously a little unreasonable for the seller to do this. If the goods are not carefully inspected, the buyer will have to pay for it. However, there is no way around it, because this transaction is originally a seller's market.
Because huanghuali made from old ingredients is very popular in the market.
The inner material of huanghuali is reddish brown, dense and hard, with a very beautiful and beautiful texture, forming some natural patterns, which are most popular for creating homes.
Moreover, this kind of wood is resistant to corrosion and wear, will not easily crack or bend, and has a fragrant aroma that can last for a long time, so it is becoming more and more popular in the market.
Old materials like these are indeed not easy to see on the market now, because the growth of this kind of tree is too slow. It is no problem to use it to make bracelets and pendants. If you want to make a piece of furniture, then
It's not easy anymore.
Therefore, even if the seller puts forward some requirements that do not conform to the formal transaction procedures, the buyer can only endure it.
The three men also gathered together and discussed quietly, not knowing what they were talking about.
The little old man who made the decision among the sellers looked at Xue Chen and the others and asked: "How are you thinking? You just heard it. If you want to buy it, just pay for it. You can't lose one share. We don't have to worry about it."
Sell it." As he said that, he took out a pipe pot and smoked it.
"Let's take another look." Yan Ruxing replied.
"Okay, you can watch it. You can watch it as you like, but you can't do anything random, drilling holes in pillars or anything like that. We won't allow it!" The little old man spoke in a rather aggressive tone.
One of the three people who came from the south climbed up the ladder against the wall, probably to check the three logs on the beams.
Several local people didn't pay attention. The wood was still growing on the house and couldn't be stolen. Naturally, they didn't need to be so careful. They were thinking about what to do after the wood was sold for money. They kept chattering, but they couldn't jump.
There are several possibilities including buying a car, buying a house, giving your son a wife.
Xue Chen stood in the main room, stretched out his hand and patted the pillar on the left. This one was of the best quality among the five old materials, and was also the largest in size. If he could buy it for 10 million alone, it would definitely be very profitable.
The big pieces are used for large furniture, and the scraps are used for making bracelets. It’s no problem to double the size. The beam on the roof to the south is also very good.
However, it seems inappropriate to just bluntly propose that I want to buy two of the pieces of wood, and the seller may not agree.
Just when he was thinking about this, suddenly, the man from the south who was climbing on the ladder turned his head and said: "Your wood is not very good anymore. Look, it's all broken."
broken?!
In unison, everyone looked up and followed the man's finger, and sure enough they saw a not very obvious horizontal crack on the wood.
"How can there be stubble? There was obviously no stubble before." The little old man stood up in confusion, and put down the pipe and pot in his hand. This is related to the life of their family for the rest of their lives, and they cannot be careless.
The man came down from the ladder, and the little old man climbed up quickly to check.
"crack?"
Xue Chen murmured in his heart. He had climbed up to take a look not long ago, and he didn't see any cracks in the wood. How could it suddenly appear?
He looked at the man who had just come down from the ladder, thoughtfully.
The little old man went to take a look, and saw that there was indeed a crack across the entire beam in one of the beams. His face became very ugly. When he came down, he looked at the three men from the south with an unkind look and said: "
It didn't crack yesterday, why did it suddenly crack today? Is it your fault?"
"Hey, this old gentleman, you have to be honest. That beam is so thick. How could it be damaged by us? It seems to me that the inside of the wood is already rotten and cannot withstand the roof tiles."
The heavy pressure will cause it to crack."
"Yes, if you don't believe it, look at the crack. The color of the material inside is no longer pure. The environment here is too humid and the material is no longer good."
"I don't think we can even make bracelets, let alone furniture. Let alone one worth five million or ten million, even one worth one million may not be sold."
The three men from the south talked to each other and shook their heads.
After hearing this, the faces of the little old man and several locals nearby became very ugly. They were very panicked and at a loss. They all thought that this was the blessing of their ancestors. They would not have to worry about farming for the rest of their lives, and they could live without worries.
It's a good life and I can't bear any setbacks.
Xue Chen glanced at the little old man and thought to himself, although he looked quite sophisticated, he was just a countryman after all, and his mental quality was a bit poor. His face changed after just a few words.
"You still don't let us dismantle and inspect the materials. How will we know if these materials are all rotten? I think it's better than this. We can offer 10 million for five pieces of materials, even if all five pieces of materials are rotten.
It’s clear and we accept it.”
The little old man and his family have not yet stabilized their emotions, and their thinking ability is even more limited.
"Old sir, you have to think clearly that these timbers were used to build the house at the same time. Since the inside of that timber has begun to rot, the other four timbers are probably in the same condition. In that case, even one million may not be enough.
If it can be sold, our price of 10 million is already very reasonable, and we have taken a very large risk, and 10 million is enough for your family to live a good life for a lifetime, so you have to think clearly."
These words are very sharp, and they speak to the hearts of these local people. They cannot bear the ups and downs, because these five pieces of wood are their only opportunity to get rich overnight. They must not miss it, maybe three thousand and five thousand.
For them, the difference between one million and ten million is not very big. What they fear most is that they will not get one million.
Seeing that several sellers were hesitant after being told something, the three men from the south turned to look at Xue Chen and the four of them.
"Friends, you have also seen that the condition of these timbers is very bad. Are you sure you still want to buy them? You may lose a lot of money."
Yu Qiang remained silent. Lu Jianmin looked at Yan Ruxing hesitantly, but Yan Ruxing remained calm and showed no change in his expression.
"Friends, since this is a losing business, why are you still doing it?" Xue Chen looked at the three people with a smile. Now that the seller has been fed and housed, is he coming here to take away the competitor as well?
"We are gambling. Since it is a gamble, we may lose. You can go and take a look at the condition of that piece of wood. It is really bad. Aren't you afraid of suffering a loss of tens of millions?"
If someone else is really deceived and has no confidence, but wants to play this trick in front of Xue Chen, it would be too ridiculous. If others don't know, he still doesn't know the specific situation of these five pieces of wood.
?
At this time, several locals also discussed it in low voices. The little old man came over, coughed, glanced at the three people from the south, then looked at Xue Chen and the others, and said after thinking: "This is
Our family's ancestral home is now divided. The eldest, second and third sons sold the money and divided it equally among the three families. How to divide 10 million? It's too little. The fixed price is 15 million, one cent.
No less!”
"Fifteen million? We want it."
When Xue Chen heard the price the little old man wanted, he made the decision without hesitation. He felt that the price was really suitable. Not to mention the other three pieces of wood that were in bad condition, the two good ones were already worth the price.
.
The three men from the south didn't expect Xue Chen to agree so happily. They looked at each other with unhappy expressions on their faces.
They couldn't understand that the piece of wood on the beam was cracked and the situation was very bad. Normal people should be very cautious and would rather make a trip in vain than rush into a transaction worth tens of millions.
Make uncertain decisions.
The little old man didn't seem to think that this person, who had never spoken to him much, would immediately agree to the price.
"Are you sure? This is not a joke. If you really want to buy it, you have to go to the county with us to transfer money now." The little old man looked at Xue Chen with some suspicion, especially when he saw that Xue Chen was so young and younger than him.
How can your son decide such a big business if he is still young?
"Of course." Xue Chen nodded affirmatively.
"What I mean is, give us the money first. No matter whether these five pieces of wood are good or bad, we can't go back on it. We have to sign a contract!"
The little old man and his family also felt a little unsure. They were disturbed by the suddenly broken piece of wood. The situation inside the piece of wood could be vaguely seen through the broken edge. It was really not good. In order to prevent long nights and dreams, it was better to hurry up.
It's better to sell it. Once you have the money, you can sleep peacefully and peacefully.
They are not businessmen, nor do they have strong capital to gamble. They don't even have the courage to demolish the house and check the specific condition of the five pieces of wood. What if the house is demolished and the five pieces of wood are all rotten and look bad?
It's so good that I can't even cry. After discussion, it was settled that 15 million would be given to each of the three families, and they were all satisfied with it.
The three men from the far south were very angry. They managed to get the price down, but they got the peach? (To be continued)
