Chapter 885 Successful Transaction
The middle-aged hunter who came along also saw Chai Yan and others, and he felt relieved immediately.
"Sir, I'm really sorry. I was delayed a little on the way and made you anxious. I'm sorry!"
A few dozen feet away, the middle-aged hunter began to apologize.
Chai Yan came up to him and was about to ask why you were the only one back when the middle-aged hunter pointed behind him and said, "Sir, shopkeeper Wu from the Huichun Hall is behind you. I was worried that you might be impatient with the wait, so I came over first to give you something."
Sir, please give me a message."
"You have work to do," Chai Yan said politely.
Then, the middle-aged hunter began to explain the reason for the delay on the road. After hearing this, Chai Yan found that it was actually a common problem while driving and it was not a big deal.
As they were talking, a carriage pulling goods came on the road. Several people on the carriage got out of the carriage and hurriedly walked towards Chai Yan.
The middle-aged hunter immediately said: "Sir, that is the shopkeeper Wu of Huichun Hall, and the other two are apprentices in the shop."
Shopkeeper Wu approached everyone with a smile on his face and offered his hands to everyone, saying politely: "I, Wu Sansheng, have met the young master! I have met all of you..."
Shopkeeper Wu is worthy of being an old man in the business world. As soon as he arrived, he greeted everyone in a gentle and friendly way, and the relationship between the two parties became closer instantly.
After some pleasantries and introductions, Wu Sansheng got the topic on track and asked about the dragon.
Chai Yan didn't say much, and immediately said: "Shopkeeper Wu, please come with me."
With that said, Chai Yan led everyone behind a tree further inside the forest. In front of them, there was a lot of things covered by the branches of the tree.
"This...is everything down here?" Wu Sansheng asked in surprise with his eyes wide open.
Chai Yan smiled, then gave Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun a look, and the two walked over and moved the branches and leaves away one by one.
"Help! Why are you standing there? Hurry up and help!" Wu Sansheng was overjoyed and hurriedly urged the two apprentices to come forward and take action.
The middle-aged hunter didn't need anyone else to tell him, he took the initiative to help.
After a while, with everyone's cooperation and efforts, a large number of dragons covered by branches were revealed, and the scene was quite spectacular.
At this time, Wu Sansheng was dumbfounded and stood beside Chai Yan, speechless in surprise: "This... this..."
Chai Yan smiled and said: "Shopkeeper Wu, there are a total of six dragons here. We went to hunt them under the pond behind the mountain. Are you satisfied with them?"
The sound of words made Wu Sansheng come back to his senses immediately. He quickly walked to the dragon pile and inspected it carefully. Two apprentices followed him, making discussions from time to time.
Soon, Wu Sansheng walked back to Chai Yan after the inspection and asked: "Master Chai, please give me a price. We want all these six dragons in Huichun Hall!"
When Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun heard this, they immediately had happy smiles on their faces, knowing that if they were all sold, they would get 40% of it.
Chai Yan smiled and gestured to the side: "Shopkeeper Wu, let's go over there and chat slowly..."
"Please!" Wu Sansheng agreed immediately and walked to the side with Chai Yan to talk.
After a while of bargaining, Wu Sansheng said that the highest price for the purchase would be 500 taels of silver per piece, and six pieces would be 3,000 taels of silver!
Chai Yan firmly disagreed, saying that the price of three thousand taels was too low. If Wu Sansheng was really sincere, then another five hundred taels must be added to the total price. In other words, the deal can be completed at 3,500 taels!
With an extra budget of five hundred taels, Wu Sansheng was a little unsure for a moment, so he called his two apprentices away to discuss it in private.
On Chai Yan's side, Hang Baiqiu, Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun also gathered around.
Chai Yan first told the results of the negotiation. Hang Baiqiu didn't understand the market price of dragon meat, so she just nodded slowly. In her heart, it was good enough to sell it for so much money.
But Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun were not happy because the last time Sha'er Zidan bought a plate of dragon meat, it cost one thousand taels. Now there are six full dragons here, but it only counts for three thousand five hundred taels?
"No, no, sir, the price is too low!" Cheng Jiu shook his head in disagreement.
"Yes, sir, I think one thousand taels a piece is about the same. The total is only three thousand five hundred taels. It's less, too little!" Guan Maochun also had the same view.
Chai Yan smiled slightly and said: "What do you know? They are businessmen. How can they compare with Sha'er Zidan? They open a shop to do business. If they take it back at such a sky-high price, how many ordinary people can afford it? I
I’ve said it long ago that small profits but quick turnover are the norm, why don’t you understand?”
Hang Baiqiu asked curiously: "Who is Sha Er Zidan?"
Chai Yan replied: "Oh, a noble son from the Youlong clan once bought me a plate of dragon meat for one thousand taels..."
Then, Chai Yan recounted what happened at that time to Hang Baiqiu.
And Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun were calculating small accounts with their heads down...
"Fourth brother, if we sell it for 3,500 taels, it seems to be pretty good. If we get 40%, it's probably... uh... it's quite a lot anyway!
"Guan Maochun couldn't calculate the specific amount of 40%, but he knew that this amount of money must be a lot of money.
Cheng Jiu counted with his fingers for a long time before he figured out how much 40 percent was, and said: "If it's three thousand five hundred taels, four percent would be one thousand four hundred taels!"
"One thousand four hundred taels? Wow..." Guan Maochun couldn't help shouting, and he was so frightened that he quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Cheng Jiu, who had calculated the specific results, had no objection at this time. If he could really get one thousand four hundred taels, then each of the five brothers would have nearly three hundred taels of silver. This is a considerable income!
After listening to Chai Yan's words, Hang Baiqiu said: "If there is enough time, it is not impossible to find several more companies to compare prices, but we don't have the time right now, so I think it is good to handle it all at once!"
Just as he was talking, Wu Sansheng came over and said: "Master Chai, the deal is three thousand five hundred taels, it's okay, but this silver..."
"Shopkeeper Wu didn't bring enough money?" Chai Yan saw his difficulty at a glance.
Wu Sansheng said with shame: "To be fair, sir, I brought extra banknotes when I came out, about one thousand and eighty taels. I thought it would be enough, but I didn't expect that, haha...
Therefore, for the missing 1,700 taels, I have to ask you to go to our Huichun Hall in Hukou Town to get it. I wonder what Mr. Chai wants?"
"If we go to Hukou Town, is it the same direction as Lintai Mountain?" Chai Yan asked.
Wu Sansheng nodded immediately: "Yes, once you pass Hukou Town, you will reach Lintai Mountain!"
Chai Yan looked at Hang Baiqiu, then at Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun. Seeing that they had no doubts, he nodded and said, "Okay, that's it!"
Wu Sansheng was very happy. He immediately turned around and called his apprentice and coachman, and asked them to help load the dragon into the car.
