Chapter 30: Greed
The consumption of Chunxianglou was very high, and soon Wu Fan's money was not much left. Only when he shot the bouncy ball could he find Li Yibai to ask for the remaining 1oo taels of silver.
Wu Fan came to the front of Xue Jiade's store. Wu Fan remembered that Li Yibai had strictly explained that he was not allowed to enter his store for transactions. So Wu Fan stood in front of the store and shouted Xue Jiade to come out.
Wu Fan's voice was very small, this Xue Jiade was far away from the door in the store, and he couldn't hear Wu Fan calling him. I just saw Wu Fan standing in the middle of the street from a distance, facing him.
Wu Fan and Xue Jiade couldn't hear the shouting at all. But he couldn't make a loud noise, he felt that it was insulting. So he beckoned inside at the door.
Finally, Xue Jiade felt strange and walked out. 'Wu Gongzi, you have something to do with me. ’
Wu Fan took out the bouncy ball from his body.
When Xue Jiade saw it, he was taken aback. Yes. He also has Dragon Balls. That's great. Slaughter him again this time.
"Wu Gongzi, please, come into the store and discuss the price in detail." ’
Wu Fan said, "I won't go in." Sell it right here. ’
The street was full of people, but fortunately, the bouncy ball was very small, and many passers-by did not show up. Xue Jiade hurriedly covered the bouncy ball with his hand.
'Wu Gongzi, how can this treasure be seen by others. Let's go into the house and talk about the price. In this way, it can be kept secret, and others will not know how much you have sold, and when I sell it in the future, I will only be able to sell it at a price. ’
Xue Jiade is right, this is also the rules of doing business, if the onlookers hear how much Xue Jiade charges, they will know the price he charges, and it will be difficult for him to sell at a high price.
And Wu Fan doesn't understand bullshit, he is a cowardly and pedantic scholar, he only listens to Li Yibai's arrangement.
'No, I can't. I'll sell it here. Don't pull me into the house. ’
Xue Jiade whispered to persuade him not to speak loudly, while thinking, this kid is so angry now, he just refuses to enter the store, it seems that he will do business, once he is born, and he is twice mature. He also went to the Tao, knew how to put the score, and knew how to raise the price. Then it seems that I have to hurry up and take it for him, or he may find someone else. Now he's all so cunning.
'Wu Gongzi, okay. I buy. You say how much it is. ’
Wu Fan said in his heart, Li Yibai confessed to selling 5ooo. Let's talk about 5ooo.
'5ooo two. Same as last time. ’
Xue Jiade originally wanted to bargain, but passers-by had already stopped and looked at them. Xue Jiade was very nervous, he couldn't let others know the price he charged for this treasure. grabbed Wu Fan's arm again.
Wu Gongzi walked into the house. I'll go to the house and get you a silver ticket. ’
Wu Fan shook off his hand. 'No, I can't. Say that you can't go into the house. Go and bring me the silver ticket. ’
Xue Jiade said in his heart, it seems that this price is not to be discussed. This kid's confidence is too hard. I was reluctant to enter the house to negotiate. If I talk outside for a long time, others will know the price I charged. It's hard for me to sell at a high price. Moreover, this treasure has been discovered by everyone, and it may be bought by others. That's when I regretted it.
'Okay. You wait for me. I'm going to get you a silver ticket. ’
Xue Jiade said and ran back to the store to get 5ooo two silver tickets. Wu Fan took the silver ticket and went back to find Li Yibai.
After Wu Fan saw Li Yibai, he was overjoyed, "Brother Yibai, I sold it this time." And it sold for 5ooo taels. ’
Li Yibai smiled in his heart, this time you will definitely be able to sell 5ooo taels. I never enter the store, how hard is this confidence. Such a stupid person, I can only teach this way.
'Brother Wu, you are doing a good job. I'll let you do it again tomorrow. After the deed is completed, you will be given 1oo two silver tickets. ’
Saying that, Li Yibai gave Wu Fan 4 elastic balls and 1oo two silver tickets. Wu Fan was not much surprised when he saw the elastic ball, but he was happy to jump up when he saw 1oo and two silver tickets.
'Brother Bai. Are there any strange requests for selling things this time? ’
Li Yibai said solemnly, "This time, each piece will be sold for a minimum of 5ooo taels." Not a penny less. I'd rather not sell it than less than 5ooo two. You can offer him 6oooo taels. ’
'This is too easy, Brother Yibai, you are too good to me, you are simply sending me money to spend. Saying goodbye to Li Yibai, Wu Fan happily went to Chunxianglou to drink again.
Li Yibai came to Xue Jiade's store again. "Boss Xue, do you still have the kind of dragon ball I bought last time?" ’
Xue Jiade was overjoyed and said, "Li Gongzi still wants it." But this time, as I know the price, this kind of rare treasure is very difficult to get. ’
Li Yibai said, "When did I blink when I received something." The salt merchant of Yangzhou, the prince of Western Xia, the king of the Southern Courtyard of Liao, and the prince of Jin, I have business dealings. This kind of treasure, as long as I sell it to them, it is not tens of thousands of taels of silver to earn. ’
Xue Jiade heard Li Yibai say this, and his heart moved. 'Good. Li Gongzi, this time I want to sell 10,000 taels. ’
'Deal. Li Yibai's reply was not muddy at all.
Xue Jiade was still excited, as if he was living in an illusion, and when he saw the silver ticket in his hand, he believed that it was real.
'I'd like to get 5 more. You know, the dignitaries of all these countries want it. I can't afford to offend them, so I have to meet their needs. So you're trying to get 5 for me. Li Yibai pretended to be a bouncy ball and left.
'I want 5 more, this is really a chance for money.' Xue Jiade said excitedly.
'Shopkeeper, I think there's something wrong with this. Xue Jiade's buddy Xue Gui said, "Do you remember how the Zhang family was destroyed by Li Yibai?" ’
'The Shu Jin incident, Li Yibai said that he would collect a large amount, and finally repented, and then the Zhang family was trapped. Xue Jiade said.
'Yes. So I suspect that Li Yibai bluffed this time and wanted to collect a large number of dragon balls, which also wanted the shopkeeper to be trapped. Xue Gui reminded.
'Hmm. This is a possibility. But there are differences. Xue Jiade said.
'What a difference. Xue Gui said.
Because this kind of thing is not scarce. It's not a rare treasure, it's hard to find. You've said I've thought about the risks. There are only two cases.
One is that there are many such treasures and they have become worthless.
The second is that this kind of treasure is priceless in the market. It's very valuable, but no one wants to buy it. ’
Xue Jiade is a very old businessman, and his analysis is very reasonable.
"First, go and ask me if this treasure is found in other places, and how much there is.
Second, I have to personally go and sell it to a few other nobles, if they are willing to buy it. I won't be blocked by Li Yibai's family. That's a great way to rest assured. ’
'The shopkeeper is wise, so I'll go and ask everywhere, if there is this treasure in another house.' After Xue Gui finished speaking, he ran out to inquire.
And Xue Jiade plans to collect one this time, even if he can't sell it, he won't be trapped, at most, he will lose the money he earned for the first time. He had to go to another buyer to sell it himself.
The next day, Xue Jiade saw Wu Fan again. Wu Fan insisted that 5ooo would not be sold for two silver cents. Xue Jiade was worried about letting others show up, so he still handed over the money very happily. But only one was bought. Although Wu Fan didn't sell 4, he also completed part of the task, so he went to Chunxiang Building to drink.
Xue Jiade took this bouncy ball and came to the house of the senior staff who opened the restaurant that night. Gao Yuanwai is a small rich man, with a family property of 20,000 or 30,000 taels.
Shegard took out the bouncy ball. 'Outside the high-ranking staff, how much do you think this dragon ball can be sold for?' ’
The senior outsider was amazed when he saw the bouncy ball, "This is a priceless treasure." I think it's no less than 10,000 taels of silver. ’
Xue Jiade said, 'Will you buy it?' ’
Gao Yuanwai said, "I can't afford it, but there are a lot of people who can buy it, my cousin is a salt merchant in Yangzhou, and the silver ticket at home can be burned as paper." All day long, thinking about how to spend the money. Study all kinds of ways to spend money, this kind of baby, he will ask for as much price as you ask, and he doesn't care about the price at all. ’
Xue Jiade said, 'Really? ’
The senior officer said, 'Why am I telling lies?' He's coming to play in the near future, and I can recommend you to get to know him. ’
Xue Jiade hurriedly took out a silver ticket of 1oo taels from his body and handed it to Gao Yuanwai. This money is the cost of carriage and horses, and I also ask senior officials to take bridges. ’
The senior staff laughed and accepted the silver ticket. 'Don't worry. This thing can't be done, I'll pay you 1ooo two silver tickets. ’
Xue Jiade left the high-ranking foreign house, and said in his heart, this matter is ironclad, and it is 100% wrong. I don't have to worry about selling it to Li Yibai at all. I'm not afraid of anything now.
When I got home, Xue Gui also came to report, "Shopkeeper, I have traveled all over the Liulichang and the town next door, and I have never heard of this kind of dragon ball with strong elasticity. It seems that we are the only ones who have this product. ’
Xue Jiade said, 'Okay. Only we have. How much it will sell for is not what we say. ’
Xue Jiade added, "This matter is guaranteed to be correct. Li Yibai couldn't have beaten my idea at all. Who am I, I am Xue Jiade, and the vertical and horizontal glaze factory has not fallen for 2o years. The stupid pigs of the Zhang family can compare with me. ’
Xue Gui said on the side, "The shopkeeper is wise, the shopkeeper is wise, I was also a multi-hearted eye at that time." ’
Xue Jiade said again, "Tomorrow, I will personally go and collect the remaining three dragon balls and sell them all to Li Yibai." ’
The next day, Li Yibai spent 3ooo taels of silver to collect a small antique shop opposite Xue Jiade. Xue Jiade came over to greet him when he saw it, "Congratulations, congratulations to Gongzi Li, we will be together in the future." ’
Li Yibai said lightly, "Alas, because I want to resell the Dragon Balls, I also unknowingly started an antique business, and I will close a shop to facilitate my trading." By the way, did you get those 5 dragon balls? ’
Xue Jiade said, "Soon, soon, I can get you 4 first." ’
Li Yibai said, "4 is fine." Hurry up. I'm going to the Kingdom of Gold soon. The crown prince of Jin Guo is waiting for it. ’
Xue Jiade said goodbye to Li Yibai and personally came to Chunxiang Building to find Wu Fan. Wu Fan is really still in Chunxiang Building. At this time, Xue Jiade saw Wu Fan like he saw his own father.
'Oops. Wu Gongzi, how can you sit in such a low-level position. Sister Hong, quickly call a girl to Wu Gongzi. ’
Xue Jiade personally poured wine for Wu Fan. 'Wu Gongzi, are those 3 dragon balls still there? ’
