"I'll give you their price news, you can mind your own business. Black Box said.

"What is my authority?" asked Gu Huai. It means the maximum amount of funds you can call.

He knew when he was in the Imperial City that the boss would set a budget before the auction began, either in writing or verbally.

Because everything is about efficiency—to get what you want for as little money as possible.

On the contrary, if there is no budget, the person who offers the price will go higher to increase the probability of winning the auction.

However, what is filmed in this way may not be worth the loss.

"Eight hundred and fifty taels of gold. Black Box said.

"What happens if I use less than that?" asked Gu Huai.

As he expected, the boy replied:

"The difference is yours. ”

This principle is easy to understand, so that people should do things, and they should be given some incentives.

If there is no incentive, of course Gu Huai will give out eight hundred and fifty taels of silver without even thinking about it, because the silver is not his own, and the boss wants to get this thing very much.

"Do you need to shoot at a premium?" asked Gu Huai. Meaning, whether it is possible to give more money than budgeted.

Sometimes, the opponent's offer will force you to offer a price that is slightly more than your budget.

This time, the answer was somewhat unexpected for Gu Huai. Black Boy Road:

"Boss You didn't explain this. ”

"What? didn't explain this?" Gu Huai was a little skeptical that the black boy was mistaken. An old Jianghu like You Qiu, how much does the premium actually not tell himself?

Heizai looked at Gu Huai's puzzled eyes, emphasized once, and said:

"I really didn't tell me, did he contact you directly?"

Gu Huai took out the note from his pocket, flipped through it and read it a few more times, but except for the previous line, he didn't find any instructions about the premium auction.

He asked the person next to him:

"Guys, did you bring enough silver taels?"

Several people shook their heads.

Tai Lai Dao:

"If you want a premium, we'll have to pay at least a tael of gold, right? We just have some basic entanglements on us, and we can't afford to pay a premium. ”

After Tai finished speaking, Black Box and Sha Wuliu both nodded.

Gu Huai looked at the wind and shook his head:

"Don't ask me, I never bring money. ”

Okay, Gu Huai said secretly, I will take eight hundred and fifty taels as the upper limit, otherwise, is it difficult to sell myself and increase the price?

"What happens if it doesn't work out?" Gu Huai asked Heizai with some trepidation.

"Fines. The black boy said lightly, word by word.

This damn it, Gu Huai said bitterly in his heart, where does he still have money to be punished!?

"Then there's still some time to go, should we go around again?" he thought that he had no more money to penalize, and it might feel more comfortable to ask more.

"No!" said the black boy, shaking his hand, pointing to a fat merchant not far away.

"Jin Bisha Jewelry Shop, their price is between six hundred and fifty gold and seven hundred and twenty gold. ”

Black Box gives a price range, the minimum and maximum prices are very certain, and the middle is uncertain.

Gu Huai nodded, what made him wonder more than a price range was why the black boy would know such news.

Could it be that he went out to find out the news before, all for this?

"The sand cotton cloth workshop in the east of the city, Qin's shopkeeper, the overall bid is higher, between five hundred and seven hundred and fifty. ”

......

Gu Huai was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he wrote it down in his heart.

Nothing else, his memory is excellent.

"Zhang Fatzi, a pedicure shop in the north of the city, bids between four hundred and five hundred and twenty. Black Box said again.

There is actually a pedicure shop, Gu Huai is also curious, of course, he also wrote down this range, thinking that this fat man is afraid that he has not figured out the true value of Moyangfang in the past two days, so he set a price arbitrarily......

When listening to Heizai's words, Gu Huai unconsciously followed some of the prices he said and observed the source of the price. He found that those caravans were all led by the boss, and like his own family, only men were sent to them, and there were relatively few.

Gu Huai was drumming in his heart, You Qiu believed in himself like this?

But as soon as he remembered what he had suffered in the past two days, he secretly resolved that he must let the others go to this quicksand island for nothing.

"Yo, how many people are still negotiating the price?" A few people were discussing, and the fat man from the pedicure shop walked over, with a look of contempt and a smile.

Seeing someone coming, the black boy's face sank, and he said:

"Boss Zhang, we are discussing the bidding, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to come here now!"

"What's the matter, I'm afraid I'll learn?" Boss Zhang has a strong local atmosphere and a strong accent, "The shopkeeper didn't say that he couldn't inquire today." ”

Shopkeeper Qiu didn't say it, but on this quicksand island, it seems to be an unwritten convention to communicate and inquire on the first day and offer a price on the second day.

However, some people like to cling to words and be different from themselves.

"It's okay little black brother," it was Sha Wuliu who spoke, who greeted him, waved his hand, and looked very generous, "If you come, you are a guest, you don't have to be like this." ”

As soon as these words came out, the group looked very embarrassed. Gu Huai seemed to hear Tai Lai secretly whispering "Turtle Grandson".

Black Box is obviously very reluctant, but because he has just arrived in You's, he doesn't want the supervisor's son to have a conflict.

"So, shopkeeper Zhang, are you also ready?" he said with a smile to Zhang Fatzi.

"Yo, didn't you Boss You come?" Zhang Fatzi didn't answer the black boy, but just looked around at the You family and sneered, "Is it possible that something happened in advance and couldn't come?"

"You!" Tai Lai is an old man after all, and seeing others bury their own shopkeepers like this, they are also on fire.

The black boy pressed Tai Lai, made a look, signaled that he didn't need to be angry, and then turned to Zhang Fat and said:

"Something happened to the person we quoted yesterday, someone wanted to poison him, it can't be you, right?"

Xu of the shopkeeper Zhang didn't expect Heizai to have such a sentence, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Sha Wuliu and said angrily:

"What poison, don't spew blood!"

After saying that, he walked away stupidly.

Seeing the fat man walking away, Tai Lai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go, lest they stay for a long time and know our strategy." ”

Seeing that Zhang Fatzi was aroused, Sha Wuliu's face was a little unpleasant.

After the fat man walked away, Heizai continued to talk to Gu Huai about other people's prices......

Gu Huai found these, among these prices, the lowest is four hundred taels, and the highest is nine hundred taels, which will not exceed this range. Moreover, there are very few people with a two-headed price.

Halfway through Heizai's speech, Gu Huai suddenly remembered something and asked Heizai:

"If you knew this information in the morning, why did you tell me today?"

Black Boy was suddenly asked, as if he hadn't reacted yet, touched his head, and smiled a little embarrassedly:

"I had some things to do yesterday, and it's not too late to discuss them. ”

said that there was something, and Gu Huai remembered the night he stayed in the Quicksand Islands, and saw that the black boy went out late at night, and he didn't know what this guy was going to do.

"You know the price range," he asked Blackboy, "but do you know if anyone else knows about you?"

"Good question!" replied to the black box, after a moment's thought, "what I'm talking about now is known only to the people in our shop." ”

"How can you see it?" Gu Huai bit it, he didn't want to be fined all his money because of a bidding mistake at that time.

"Hmph," the black boy sneered, "because the method we use to explore the price, others are useless, and they dare not use it!"

Gu Huai saw that there was still a sense of sadness in Heizai's smile, and he didn't dare to continue asking.

"So, do you have an idea?" asked Gu Huai instead, his eyes burning, as if he was not allowed to say no.

Gu Huai thought for a moment and nodded, thinking that this Xiao Hei must have spent a lot of money to find out the price at that time.

He looked at the flywheel and found that it was less than half an hour, so he forced himself to calm down, thinking back to the price news of the black boy just now, as if he had found some strategy.

Thinking about it, he unconsciously looked at Sha Wuliu .

At this time, Sha Wuliu didn't have the impetuous appearance he usually had, but was also listening.

He started with a budget of eight hundred and fifty taels and listened all the way to the present.

When his eyes made contact with Gu Huai's, he seemed to be a little dodgy.

At this moment, although Gu Huai came up with a way to bid, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

In fact, Gu Huai knew that this Sha Wuliu was not a showmanship, so he always felt that he should be more vigilant.

But at the moment, everyone is not using force or spells, so what should we watch out for?

There was still a moment to go, and the shopkeeper Qiu appeared and said to the people in the hall:

"There's still a moment to go, now please write the price in an envelope and wait for submission—"

At this time, almost all the caravans estimated their prices, and sent people to start writing and drawing on the stationery.

Gu Huai pondered for a while, then took the envelope by himself, ran to a no-man's corner, took out the letter paper, picked up the pen, and wrote down his quotation very confidently:

"Eight hundred and twenty taels of gold"

Eight hundred and twenty taels was calculated by him. With the belief that at this price, you can not only get the business deed of Moyangfang, but also make money for yourself. And you can make a lot of money!

Eight hundred and five minus eight hundred and two, and thirty taels remaining, and it was gold.

Thinking of this, his heart blossomed.

Thirty taels of gold, how much does that cost! With this money, he can directly repay the money of the Guibao pawnshop, and there is still a lot left.

Then he still had some fantasies about buying a car by himself and buying a house in Shakun City......

In fact, he could have written eight hundred and fifty taels, but then he didn't have a penny.

He believes that since no one else knows that Black Box has these price range news, he will not know his bidding strategy.

So, he also believes that he can get things done with less money. Why not?

Gu Huai was beautiful in his heart, folded the paper and put it in the envelope, dipped it in saliva and sealed it.

"It's written?" Tai Lai asked when he saw Gu Huai back among the people.

Gu Huai nodded.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he looked at the bag he was carrying, and when he looked closely, it was glowing slightly, and under the strong light of the hall, the faint fluorescence was afraid that only he could see.

Something must be wrong!

"Little brother Gu Huai, your price has been set?" Sha Wuliu leaned over and said.

It doesn't feel like a concern, it's like a provocation.

At this moment, Gu Huaixin concluded that the problem must lie in his own pricing. And he could sense that if he wasn't careful, he would lose the auction.

Gu Huai was already oozing sweat on his forehead at this time, what should he do.

At this time, he urgently needed a lamp of anthurium tea, but found that the shopkeeper had removed all the tea today.

This is somewhat suspicious, but it is no longer the main point of concern for Gu Huai.

He looked at Shi Feilun, sweat oozing from his forehead, he didn't want to lose, not only because of the money, but also because this was the first important task that Boss You gave him.

What to do......

"If you encounter an urgent problem, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and think about the ins and outs of the problem......" Gu Huai closed his eyes and began to breathe deeply, his father Gu Li's teachings echoed in his mind.

......
