Chapter 60: Witty Negotiation (2)
Sure enough, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Gongzi's mouth.
"Do you grow red konjac? I've heard of it this week. ”
"Has Childe ever planted this? What is the yield? Ye Mengmeng pretended to be concerned and hurriedly asked. Nowadays, people prefer to eat red konjac powder, and the little woman managed Zhuangzi for the first time, and I don't know if it's true. ”
Zhou Gongzi said: "It's okay, manage it well, apply more fertilizer, and the harvest should be good." ”
Ye Mengmeng said: "Yes, I think so too, but the Peach Blossom Village is a little smaller, so I thought about buying another Zhuangzi." ”
Zhou Gongzi's sesame eyes narrowed slightly, and it became even more obvious that his eyes had become a slit.
"But how did Zhou hear that Miss Ye was going to build a hot spring resort here?"
"Hot Spring Resort?" Ye Mengmeng was stunned, and then laughed "poof". "Zhou Gongzi is really good at laughing? Building a resort in the backwoods? Fix who will play? ”
Zhou Gongzi frowned and stared at her.
Ye Mengmeng said with a smile: "Zhou Gongzi, I won't tell you, I do have that idea to build a resort, but that is also a matter for the future, now it is a problem to meet food and clothing, where is the spare money?" ”
Zhou Gongzi said lightly: "Why should Miss Ye be called poor? Who in the capital doesn't know that the Marquis of Jinyang Mansion is wealthy? ”
"Rich in money?" Ye Mengmeng sighed. "Even if you have a lot of money, that's a thing of the past. Now the Hou Mansion can't make ends meet, and he is so poor that he can't afford to eat. Otherwise, why would I, a girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, show up to manage Zhuangzi? ”
Zhou Gongzi didn't speak, he was suspicious, and he didn't know if she was telling the truth or a lie.
Yun Die and Yun Cui, the two girls who were standing on the side, saw that they had been talking for a long time, and they hadn't talked about the topic yet, so they couldn't help but glance at each other.
Zhou Gongzi lowered his head and pondered for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Then Miss Ye wants to buy Pear Flower Village, how much silver do you plan to pay?" ”
Ye Mengmeng said with a smile: "Zhou Gongzi, I am also a refreshing person, Zhou Gongzi might as well say a real price, I think it is feasible, I will pay for it immediately, if you feel that the price is objectionable, we can still discuss, what do you think?" ”
Zhou Gongzi nodded and said, "Since Miss Ye is a cheerful person, and Zhou is not verbose, then understand the offer: 10,000 taels of silver." If Miss Ye is willing, we will immediately pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. ”
"Ten thousand taels?" Ye Mengmeng frowned slightly. "Zhou Gongzi, will 10,000 taels be too expensive? Less, after all, the soil here is too poor. ”
Zhou Gongzi shook his head and said: "10,000 is already the lowest price, you know, although my Zhuangzi is a little poor, but it is wide enough and big, twice as big as Peach Blossom Village, 10,000 is already very cost-effective." ”
Ye Mengmeng said: "Although Zhou Gongzi's words are good, you also know the market in Nanchu, no matter how much land there is, if the harvest can't go up, it is equivalent to wasteland." If it's wasteland, it's worthless. ”
Zhou Gongzi raised his eyes and stared at her. Obviously, the little girl was more shrewd than he expected.
"Okay, then you say a price."
Ye Mengmeng smiled slightly and stretched out five fingers.
"Five thousand?" Zhou Gongzi lost his voice. "Miss Ye, you've cut the price too much, right?"
Ye Mengmeng sighed and said: "Zhou Gongzi, to be honest, Pear Flower Village and our Peach Blossom Village are neighbors, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, I will give you five thousand for the sake of neighbors." If it were someone else, it would be worth three thousand at most. ”
"Three thousand?" Zhou Gongzi got up suddenly, almost overturning the chair, looking a little excited. "Three thousand Zhou, I'd rather it rot here than sell it!" After saying that, he turned around and walked away.
The two girls looked at each other. Ye Mengmeng looked at his back with a smile and was not in a hurry at all.
"Miss, in fact, five thousand is really a little less, Miss can add another ...... thousand"
When Yundie was in her hometown, her family also had real estate, so she was no stranger to these.
Ye Mengmeng saw that Zhou Gongzi was about to walk to the door, so she coughed, deliberately raised her voice, and pretended to talk to the girls.
“…… Where do you know? Do you really think I want to buy this Zhuangzi? It's not because your young lady and I are about to marry His Royal Highness the Prince, in order to make the dowry more generous when I marry in the future, so as not to embarrass His Royal Highness, I am forced to buy a few more Zhuangzi. Alas! ”
Ye Mengmeng said as she glanced at Zhou Gongzi who was about to step out.
Sure enough, Zhou Gongzi paused and stopped.
Ye Mengmeng knew it in her heart. The two girls' minds also turned quickly, and Yun Die was also very good, pretending to comfort Miss: "Miss, don't worry, what is the identity of the prince, can he care about this dowry with you?" ”
"How do you know?" Ye Mengmeng shook her head and said, "The higher the status, the more important the face, if the woman's dowry is too shabby, it will be a disgrace to the royal family." ”
"So, miss, what then?"
"I want to ......"
Ye Mengmeng was just halfway through her words, when she saw Zhou Gongzi turn back and stare at her, her tone was a little suspicious.
"You? Marrying His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
The prince has not yet been married, this is known to the entire Southern Chu people, but, just by virtue of the little girl in front of him?
Zhou Gongzi looked Ye Mengmeng up and down.
The little girl's appearance is okay, beautiful and beautiful, but there is still a distance from the country and the city, and the prince can afford her?
Ye Mengmeng observed his words, naturally knew his thoughts, shrugged his shoulders and said, "What, you don't believe it?" That's up to you, too. However, just think about it, my little girl's family doesn't have the courage to make friends with the royal family, and it's not that I'm impatient. ”
Zhou Gongzi frowned and stared at her for a moment, but he didn't see any flaws on her face.
Although I don't know if it's true or not, but this kind of thing, how to say it, I'd rather believe it than believe it, what if it really is? At this moment, Zhou Gongzi is thinking like this.
In the final analysis, he really offended the prince a little, so he thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, then Zhou will give one step, eight thousand taels, and it can't be less." ”
Ye Mengmeng thought for a while and said, "Zhou Gongzi is a cheerful person, and the little woman admires it, but eight thousand taels is really expensive." Well, I'll also take a step, six thousand, how? ”
Zhou Gongzi was displeased and snorted: "Miss Ye can't talk about it like this." You want to buy such a big Zhuangzi for 6,000 taels? It's too fine. ”
Ye Mengmeng sighed: "Zhou Gongzi, let's not talk darkly, although your Zhuangzi is a little bigger than my Peach Blossom Village, but the soil quality is worse than my Peach Blossom Village, even if you sell it to others, others may not be willing to buy it for six thousand taels." Childe, do you say? ”
Zhou Gongzi's face froze.
Ye Mengmeng knew that he had guessed his mind as soon as he saw his expression, and said with a smile: "Zhou Gongzi, just like this, I will add another five hundred, a total of six thousand five, and one or two taels of silver will not be added." Zhuangzi is yours, you can sell it if you want to, and I don't force it if you don't want to sell it. ”
