There was silence on the other end of the phone: "I'm sorry for you." ”

Li Changqing apologized: "Mr. Lin, if there is a clue, I will inform you as soon as possible." ”

Hanging up the phone, Tang Xiaoyu sat next to her and just finished eating, she held a napkin and slowly wiped the corners of her mouth: "Is that Mr. Lin?" It's not easy for him either, it's a pity. ”

In this regard, Li Changqing also deeply felt that Li Changqing before was actually a kind-hearted person, otherwise it would not be possible to take Lin Zhixin's commission with just one Lang coin.

"Let's go, go shopping."

Tang Xiaoyu suddenly became vigilant: "Li Changqing, why do you want to go shopping again?" I've noticed that you've been spending more and more lavily lately. ”

Li Changqing didn't reply, put on a black windbreaker, picked up the cane in the corner, and then stretched out his fedora towards Tang Xiaoyu.

"Your hat still hasn't been washed......"

Although there was some reluctance on his face, he still got into the fedora.

After two days of practice, there is not much left of the materials for drawing talismans at home, and I need to go out to buy them.

Li Changqing took the car to the incense candle antique furniture market again, and after getting off at Babao Street Station in Dongcheng District, he walked on the street with a familiar car.

The main materials for drawing symbols are paper and vermilion, vermilion is cinnabar, and ink is smoke ink.

The price of paper is not expensive, but the price of cinnabar is a bit exaggerated, in the previous life, the price of cinnabar, a gram of about 5-35 RMB.

And in this world, a gram of cinnabar is exaggerated to cost a hundred lang coins!

The price of a pound of cinnabar has reached an exaggerated 50,000 lang coins!

It's a money grab!

But if you want to draw the general's talisman as soon as possible, you can't save the money.

After walking nearly 100 meters, Li Changqing still came to the store that sold incense last time, only this store has the most luxurious decoration and the largest share of cinnabar that can be sold.

It's still that beautiful sales lady.

"Sir, are you here to buy incense?"

A sales lady dressed in a black professional outfit came to him with a smile on her face.

This is a gold owner, and the last time she came to buy incense, it was calculated by the catty, and she got a lot of commission rewards from it.

Li Changqing looked at the many Buddha statues in the store with his hands behind his back, and said, "Hello, I want to buy some cinnabar." ”

"Cinnabar?"

The sales lady was slightly stunned, and her smile became more kind: "How many grams are you going to buy?" ”

"Let's come to half a catty."

"Li Changqing, you're crazy! You must be crazy! ”

Inside the fedora, Tang Xiaoyu's voice came, if it weren't for the fear of scaring this beautiful sales lady, she couldn't wait to jump out and drag Li Changqing to leave the store quickly.

The sales lady's face also froze, and the smile completely disappeared from her face.

Catty?

Is there any way to buy cinnabar according to this unit of calculation?

Looking at the frozen expression of the sales lady, Li Changqing could understand her mood at the moment.

It's like a gold jewelry store, and suddenly a customer comes in and says, "Give me half a pound of gold." ”

Li Changqing had 30,000 lang coins before, plus the deposit he got from Hu Xiong, he had a total of 45,000 lang coins in his hand, and the funds were still relatively sufficient.

Cinnabar is your own necessity, and if you buy more at once, you can get a more favorable price.

"Miss? Miss? ”

Under Li Changqing's shout, the sales lady finally came back to her senses, she rearranged her emotions, the smile on her face was not a professional smirk, this time it was a smile of true feelings, and her commission was not low.

"Dear sir, the amount of half a catty of gold, according to the market price of 100 lang coins, is 25,000 lang coins, are you sure you are buying half a catty of cinnabar, not half a tael?"

She had to make sure that the young man in front of her wasn't fooling herself.

If you really want to sell so much, you need to transfer goods from other stores, and the cinnabar they have in store is far from enough.

"Of course."

Li Changqing smiled and nodded: "But the price of 25,000 lang coins, I think we can discuss it again." ”

The sales lady said vigilantly: "Cinnabar can't be discounted by six or five percent like last time, with my authority, I can give you a nine-percent discount." ”

Li Changqing still had a faint smile, picked up a stick of incense next to him, and smelled it: "Please forgive me for being rude, the price of ten percent off is still too high, although cinnabar is precious, but the scale of half a catty, few people in your store can easily eat it, and believe me, this is a long-term deal, seven folds, give me this price, I will buy cinnabar from you in the future." ”

Li Changqing searched for information about cinnabar on the website, and the reason why cinnabar is so expensive in this world is mainly because of the production problem, which is scarce and expensive, but the sales volume is not much.

Although the value is expensive, it is not as good as gold and other hard goods, and its main function is for medicinal purposes, although it is also used in sacrifices, but there are not many buyers.

The sales lady frowned slightly, picked up the calculator and began to calculate.

"I'll give you a thorough explanation, seven percent off is almost equal to our purchase price, eight percent off, right?"

Li Changqing: "Seventy-five discounts, I am a happy person to buy things, and I basically don't bargain, so it's decided?" ”

The sales lady couldn't help but secretly say in her heart, is this still called bargaining? Last time, I was cut 65% off, this time 75% off, you don't even bargain, do you have to take a knife holder around your neck?

Seeing her hesitation, Li Changqing reminded: "Beautiful young lady, you know, you are not the only one who sells cinnabar on this street. ”

"Okay, I've sold it to you, if you still need to buy it in the future, you must find me."

"Of course."

The sales lady calculated: "Half a catty of cinnabar, seventy-five percent off, is 18,750 lang coins." ”

"Look at this fifty lang coin......"

"Sir, there really can't be less than a single Lang coin."

"Good ......"

The sales lady made him a cup of tea and said, "Please wait a while, we don't have enough cinnabar stored in the store, I have to call the boss to transfer it from other stores, and it will arrive in half an hour." ”

She turned and walked into the store, probably on the phone.

Tang Xiaoyu in the fedora was also a little shocked and said: "Li Changqing, you are so powerful, 25,000 lang coins can be cut into 18,000 by you, saving more than 6,000 lang coins." ”

"I still haven't hit the bottom line."

Li Changqing shook his head, picked up the hot tea, and took a sip.

Tang Xiaoyu: "This is not the bottom line yet?" I saw that the sales lady was about to cry. ”

"Xiaoyu, this is business, she is happy in her heart, and if she really wants to cut the bottom line, she will call the boss first to ask the boss for what the boss means, and now she can set the price herself, at least she can press it down."

Li Changqing, who is a straight man of steel, also has to sigh that he didn't like to bargain before, because the things he bought were too cheap.

You'll have to dig into your bargaining skills again......
