Chapter Ninety-Nine: Bargaining (2)
The boss sat on the edge of the 'stage', but his eyes were not on the peacock, but kept staring at Ouyang Mutian's reaction, occasionally scanning the crowd, hoping that they would like the peacock's performance and appearance, so they would buy it.
The colorful peacock seemed to have spirituality, and it actually turned around quickly in place, which deeply calmed everyone down.
The boss was very satisfied with the reaction of the onlookers, of course, after comparing the costumes, he finally listed the extraordinary Ouyang Mutian as the primary target.
After about thirty turns, the peacock slowly stopped, and at the same time closed slowly, and when it completely stopped at this face, its tail was also closed.
The dance is short, but the effect is incredible.
Everyone couldn't recover from the wonderful finch dance just now, and then looked at Ouyang Mutian's dull eyes staring at the peacock, the situation in front of the boss was also excited, knowing that there was a play in selling sparrows, and he must be able to buy a good price today.
He has been selling this peacock in this morning market for more than half a month, and there are many people who join in the fun and want to buy it, but in the end they are scared away by the high selling price he proposed.
"Childe, what do you think?"
The boss directly ignored everyone, walked to Ouyang Mutian's side, stretched out a hand and waved it in front of his stupidity.
Ouyang Mutian shook his head and came back to his senses from the petrified state.
"Wonderful! is wonderful!" he exclaimed.
"Alas, alas, the son is satisfied!"
The peacock was well received, and the boss had a smile on his face.
"Okay, boss, you peacock is so wonderful!" Bai Lian, who came back to his senses, slapped his hands and shouted at the boss, and then looked at Mu Tian with great excitement and eager anticipation, "Ouyang Gongzi, let's buy it, this peacock is really rare in the world." ”
"Uh-huh!"
After listening to Bai Lian's words, the boss also nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and looked up at the tall Ouyang Mutian with a look of hope.
Mo Xida on the side had the idea of buying this colorful peacock from the first time she saw it, and after watching the peacock's shocking dance, she became even more solid with this idea, and now she was waiting for Ouyang Mutian to nod, so after Bai Lian finished speaking, she also looked at Ouyang Mutian from the side with a hopeful face, and shouted in her heart: Nodding! Agree! Buy it!
"Miss Yan Xi, Bai Gongzi, what do you think?" Ouyang Mutian calmly asked Bai Yu and Yan Xi's opinions.
"This peacock has a healthy appearance, and its dancing posture is indeed beautiful," Bai Yu expressed his opinion very considerably, "This peacock is the best among the rare birds in the world." ”
"I agree with my eldest brother, but whether to buy or not is up to the son, and don't be changed by my fourth sister's words. Yan Xi said.
"Well," Ouyang Mutian nodded, "Boss, how much silver does this peacock sell?"
The boss saw Ouyang Mutian asking for the price, and then thought about his reaction when he watched the bird dance before, he must have wanted to buy it. The boss's heart was pounding excitedly, and he prayed to God and Buddha in his heart to hope that his friend Mu Tian would not be scared away by his high price like those people before.
The boss suppressed his excitement and some worry, and stretched out a finger seemingly flatly.
"One thousand taels?" Seeing this, Abi on the side asked uncertainly.
Everyone looked at the boss and waited = he nodded or shook his head.
The boss lowered his hand and shook his head at Abi.
"He wants 10,000 taels of silver!"
A man's voice rang out in the crowd. Listening to him, he looked very excited, and he should have been one of the people who wanted to buy this peacock before but couldn't afford the high price and gave up.
"Ten thousand taels!"
"So expensive!"
"Wow!
······
The crowd immediately exploded, and they all expressed their opinions on the price of 10,000 taels.
10,000 taels? But looking at the reaction of these people, it seems that it is too expensive, but 10,000 taels should be a small amount for Ouyang Gongzi, his family is very rich.
Bai Lian's heart has been thinking about the possibility that Ouyang Mutian will pay this ten thousand taels of silver for a peacock.
Ouyang Mutian didn't say anything, just walked to the peacock and kept looking back and forth.
The eyes of the crowd were all focused on him, but the boss was nervous.
Suddenly, after circling the peacock twice, Ouyang Mutian stopped, bent over and lowered his head to look at the peacock's neck.
Oh no!He's not going to find out, is it!?
The boss's heart chuckled with Ouyang Mutian's action, and he secretly screamed that it was not good.
"Sister, what is my young master doing?" Ah Bi was puzzled by Ouyang Mutian's behavior, so he asked Yan Xi next to him.
Yan Xi was also curious, I don't know why he is like this, "Just look at it." ”
I saw Ouyang Mutian look at the peacock's beautiful neck, then get up and walk to the tail, and finally straightened up after a look.
Ouyang Mutian had a smile on his face, and the boss was also nervous in his heart.
"How about it, do you want to buy it?" the boss asked cautiously, for fear that a louder voice would scare the God of Wealth away.
Everyone's eyes returned to Ouyang Mutian, especially Bai Lian and Mo Xi, the little eyes of these two people who were expecting to see Ouyang Mutian would immediately buy the peacock.
Ouyang Mutian calmly stretched out a finger to pat
The crowd exploded again. In front of that boss.
"It's... One... One thousand taels?" the boss looked at Ouyang Mutian in disbelief.
Ouyang Mutian nodded at him.
Such a price is really far from the price offered by the boss before.
"Cut nine thousand taels at once!" Ah Bi was shocked by Ouyang Mutian's 'lion's big mouth'.
Actually cut so much at once!?
The boss will definitely not sell!
Moxi and Bai Lian's mouths opened wider. They didn't know what the concept of one thousand taels was, but it was nine thousand taels less than the ten thousand taels offered by the boss. The price Ouyang Mutian gave was only one-tenth of the price offered by the boss, although he said before that he wanted to bargain, but such an exaggerated bargaining was too unreliable.
"This son, everyone knows that you can cut it in the morning market, but you are also bullying, you actually cut it for a total price of only 10,000 taels!"
Some people in the crowd felt that Ouyang Mutian's behavior was too 'bad', so they spoke out for the boss to 'canvass for votes'.
"Yes, this peacock has been in this morning market for a while, and yesterday there were people who bargained for eight thousand taels and the boss didn't sell it, not to mention that you only gave one thousand taels. Another said.
"yes. ”
"Yes, this colorful peacock is indeed rare to see, and the price of a thousand taels is really pitiful. ”
"yes. ”
······
The onlookers echoed the voice, and they were all upset for the boss because of Ouyang Mutian's exaggerated price.
The boss felt that Ouyang Mutian had discovered what he had done to the peacock, and he was originally weak-hearted, but now when he saw that the 'people's will' was biased towards his side, his attitude also hardened, "Everyone is fair, and the price given by the son is indeed ... It's a little shabby. ”
"Hmph. Ouyang Mutian didn't pay any attention to everyone's refutation of him, just smiled suddenly, and then walked to the peacock with a look of ambition, stretched out a finger and wiped it at the base of the peacock's neck, and then raised his hand and put it in front of him, "Even if you are a valuable thousand-year-old antique, after a small carving by future generations, the price will be greatly discounted." ”
Ouyang Mutian turned his finger back to the crowd of onlookers.
The crowd exploded again, but this time they all turned to Ouyang Mutian and began to blame the boss.
"It's a fake!"
"The boss is so dishonest, no wonder the price given by this son is so low. ”
"yes, yes. ”
······
I saw that Ouyang Mutian's finger was impressively red.
"I didn't expect the boss to love this peacock so much, and he actually dyed his neck. Ouyang Mutian said jokingly to the boss.
The boss, who was still holding out his chest and saying that the price was low, bent down in an instant. There's no way, it's a fact that the matter has been revealed, he is hesitant to speak because of his weak heart, and he still wants to find a reason to raise the price, "This... This... The color of the neck was indeed dyed by me later, but it was also to echo the tail, and the colorful color of the tail was real, and it was not adulterated. So, what's the matter... and five thousand taels. ”
"Five thousand taels?" Ouyang Mutian asked softly, "I just said that the priceless treasure will be greatly discounted if it is deliberately decorated by manpower." It is true that the peacock's tail is colorful, but its neck has really been manipulated by you. So, if you want to sell this peacock today, then let's make a deal for 1,000 taels. Ben Gongzi believes that the blind dates now know the truth, and it is estimated that it will be impossible for you to sell it for more than 1,000 taels in the future. ”
Ouyang Mutian's words were full of confidence.
"Yes, I originally looked at the peacock's very good appearance, thinking that the price of 10,000 taels was reasonable, even if the boss didn't color its neck, it must be able to sell four or five of the first two, but the boss you did something to it in order to raise the price, and now I'm afraid that a thousand taels is its highest price." ”
One of the guests in the crowd analyzed.
"How about it, is it a deal for a thousand taels?" asked Ouyang Mutian.
"It's ······. ”
The boss hesitated, at this time his intestines were repentant, and he knew why he had to do it today. He thought that his superb dyeing skills would be recognized by this person.
"Since the boss is unwilling, then the boss will no longer disturb the boss to do business, and I hope the boss can sell it at a good price." Abi, let's go!"
Ouyang Mutian said, and as soon as he raised his legs, he wanted to leave.
"Alas······ !”
"Childe stays!"
Mo Xi was about to say, 'Don't go', and the boss also kept Ouyang Mutian at the same time.
Hey, there's a play! Bai Lian, who hadn't had time to stop Ouyang Mutian just now, was happy in his heart.
"What, the boss has changed his mind?" Ouyang Mutian stopped, turned around and asked the boss with a chuckle.
"If someone is willing to pay a price higher than this son's price of 1,000 taels today, then this peacock will be sold to whoever I want. "The boss still doesn't give up, leave Ouyang Mutian first, and then try that among so many people, no one is willing to make a higher price, even if it is an extra tael of silver, it is too much," If no one bids, then this peacock will be sold to you at a price of one thousand taels. ”
"Okay!" Ouyang Mutian was also very cheerful, and immediately agreed.
"Is anyone willing to pay more?" the boss scanned the crowd expectantly.
The noisy crowd suddenly fell silent and looked at each other. For a long time, no one said a word.
"Alas, let's go! In the final analysis, it's also my Wang who is cocooning himself, and a thousand taels is a thousand taels. The boss saw that no one was bidding, and he didn't want to play the two of them, so he said to Ouyang Mutian with remorse.
"Okay, the boss is refreshing!" Ouyang Mutian praised, then took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve, found a thousand taels from it and handed it to the boss, "This is a silver ticket of one thousand taels, the boss will take it." ”
"Alas!" the boss sighed and shook his head, and took the silver ticket with remorse.
