Chapter 1053: The Treasury and the Lost Treasure (Part II)
"Of course, my noble lady, no matter what the problem, Lao Ge will definitely explain it to you. Seeing that the intention to trade has been reached, and for the sake of the face of the money that may be obtained, Grandet is now extremely patient with Jian'er's problem.
"In a moment, your offer is a discounted price or a list price, and besides, you don't plan to bring up that offer and then give that discount, right?" Jian Er looked at Grandet with a suspicious look.
"This, how is this possible. Grandet put on an exaggerated expression, touching his heart with one hand and raising the other to make an oath, "I swear to God, I would never do such a thing." "Does this little girl have the ability to read minds? He could never admit that he had really had such intentions before.
"Really?" said Jane with a slight cough, and then said in a thick voice, "Isn't that convenient for me to let God carry the black pot for me when I break my oath?"
Tilting her head, Jian Er showed a look of love: "This seems to be someone's original words, I should be not mistaken?"
Grande's face was dry, the corners of his mouth twitched, what is called moving a stone to shoot himself in the foot, just look at the way he is now.
"Hey, Grande, my dear friend, you don't really intend to do such a tasteless thing, do you?" said Count Dracula, squinting dangerously at Grandet.
"How could it be. Grandet first laughed dryly, and then put on a look of righteous indignation, "Is this the kind of person my old Ge is......?
"You know, you are definitely the one who can stab a friend twice, but you can definitely stab a friend twice for money. Count Dracula said unceremoniously.
“Oh,No,No,No。 My friend, it really hurts my heart for you to say that," Grandet made a gesture that you had broken my heart, "so to make up for the damage I have suffered, or we will ...... discount"
"Nine folds! "Count Dracula is very clear, this old fellow doesn't want to think about how much money he has already taken out of us, so he finally seized the opportunity to cut this old boy's flesh, how could he give up. And as long as he has a nine-fold fold, it can be said that it is already quite kind.
"And don't try to lie to me, I know the old rules in your treasure vault, once the price is set, it will never change for three years. And, Grandet, my friend, I don't know if I told you......" Count Dracula tapped his forehead lightly with the battle of civilization in his hand, "although my memory is not particularly good, but I have no problem remembering what happened in three or five years, if I find a discrepancy in the price when I ask for it......"
Although I don't know if this is true or not, but one thing is very clear to Grandet, his seemingly extremely elegant gentleman friend is not as simple as he seems, when he first met Count Dracula, Grandet also tried to find a way to find out the bottom of this person, after all, it is still very rare to have such a generous guest. But before he could touch the edge, he was warned by a light or a covert warning. For the sake of safety, Grandet immediately withdrew his hand, after all, at that time, he had a simple trading relationship with this person, and he could not provoke a terrible opponent for the sake of momentary curiosity and invite unpredictable trouble.
Later, as the number of contacts increased, Grandet felt more and more that this friend's background was extremely deep. With Grandet's eye, he could certainly see the arrogance of Count Dracula hidden under proper etiquette, and this kind of arrogance that put everyone else in his eyes and the grace that came out of his bone marrow was not something that ordinary families could cultivate. is like the saying that is spread in the East Z country: Three generations are eunuchs for officials, and they know how to dress and eat. Without centuries of accumulation, it would never have been possible to cultivate such a bearing.
So no matter where this person's background comes from, Grandet knows very well that if you can make friends with such a person with a deep background, it will definitely be a huge intangible wealth, because you don't know when, this "wealth" may save your life. It is precisely for this reason that a stingy Grandet would make a move similar to that of taking out such a precious wine as the 87-year-old Lafite to share with him.
Of course, Grandet knows that his stingy reputation is well known, so even if he intends to befriend Count Dracula, he doesn't make it obvious, anyway, as long as the meaning is there, Grandet understands that with his own identity, he doesn't dare and can't ask too much for anything else, just to maintain this relationship, and at the critical moment, it is already good to let this person say a word.
And looking at this posture today, it seems that the identity of this little oriental girl in front of me who doesn't look very inconspicuous is quite unusual. As soon as this one speaks, Count Dracula will shut up, and if this one disagrees, Count Dracula will help pull the rack.
It seems that it is time for me to reevaluate this little girl. It is not to say whether he can befriend this little girl, but Grandet knows very well that it may be better to please this than to give face to Count Dracula. Therefore, in this transaction, not only can he not manipulate the price, but it is better to make a slight concession, and if the Count of Drachunla really has such a good memory as he says, he should be able to see his overture. No, just a little indication is enough.
In that case, it might as well be ......
Grandet suddenly solemnized his face, straightened his clothes, straightened his chest, and made a solemn appearance: "Well, my honored guest, in that case, it would be good for us to start again: I, Grande, swear to the great Satanic King that I will never misrepresent the price for a while, and complete this transaction with the highest sincerity according to the previous agreement." ”
"Do you think that's okay?" asked Grandet with a smile as he lowered his hand.
"Of course, Jane had a look of embarrassment on her face, and it seemed that Count Dracula had gone too far before.
Seeing the appearance of Grandet, a flash of understanding flashed in Count Dracula's eyes, and he looked as if he understood, but this time he only smiled at Grandet and did not say anything more. (To be continued.) )
