"Mr. Valentine, this is what I am talking about as Mr. Fang Langfang, a warrior who has just returned from the battlefields of Europe. You can call someone else. Wan Chongxin took Fang Lang to the outside of Chinatown, and found Mr. Stellan Valentine in front of him in a luxury apartment.

After Wan Chongxin's explanation, Mr. Valentine warmly welcomed the two into the living room of the bedroom, and Fang Lang could see from Mr. Valentin's surprised expression that this was indeed a collector who knew the goods.

"Mr. Fang, thank you for stepping up when the world needed you. You can call me Valentine. Valentine warmly stretched out his hand to shake Fang Lang, and expressed his gratitude to Fang Lang as a soldier of the Fang Lang Alliance.

It's a pity that Fang Lang is not keen on the so-called standing up when the world needs it, and it is not his wish to fight the Germans in Europe. Therefore, Fang Lang didn't want to communicate too much with this World War I veteran on this topic, he just wanted to quickly close the transaction and seize the time to start his later plans.

So after shaking hands, he took out two Luger P08s wrapped in gun holsters in his backpack, put them on the coffee table and said, "Hello, Mr. Valentine, it's a pleasure to meet you." These are the two Luger P08s that I managed to get my hands on, and you can take a good look at them. We hope you are satisfied! ”

Valentine didn't mind Fang Lang's directness, his eyes had already been deeply attracted by the two pistols on the table. His hands touched the leather holster like caressing his lover's delicate skin, and Fang Lang and Wan Chongxin sat quietly on the side, waiting for the buyer to inspect the goods.

Apparently Valentine really liked the Ruger P08, he took the two pistols in his hand, played with them over and over again, disassembled them and assembled them. After a long time, he reluctantly put the gun back on the table, and said: "Fang, I believe Wan has already told you that I once issued a bounty on Luger P08, so I really like these two pistols, I don't know what your offer is?" ”

"Mr. Valentine, I'm sorry because I don't know much about collections, so I can't give an accurate quote, but you can name a price and we'll close it if I think it's appropriate. Do you think it's okay? Fang Lang was telling the truth, he really didn't know the value of this pistol, and he bought it at the strong recommendation of Carlo Gambino.

However, he is not completely unfamiliar with price negotiations, and can test his mental price through Valentine's offer, as long as it is not too far from his expectations, and he prefers to spend his time on purchasing cigarettes.

"Fang, so be it! I understand that the price of the Ruger P08 standard model on the market is about 500 dollars, if you want, how about I buy these two Luger pistols for 1,200 dollars? That's $200 more than the market price, and no one should be able to offer a higher price than me. Valentine thought for a moment before speaking.

"Mr. Valentine, you also said that five hundred dollars is the price of the standard model, but are you sure you have seen these two pistols of mine clearly? I'm not the standard type! "If Fang Lang was really captured on the battlefield, he might have really been fooled by Valentine, but unfortunately Fang Lang's two pistols were bought by him for fifty dollars on the black market, and there are still a lot of Luger P08 standard models on the black market, and the price is cheaper than the two he buys, so Fang Lang knows that Valentine thinks that he doesn't understand the situation and wants to pick up a leak on his body.

"Ahh Is that so? I'll take a closer look! Valentine was not embarrassed when he heard Fang Lang's answer, as if he really had lost his eyes, and picked up two Luger P08s again and checked them.

Fang Lang knew as soon as he saw Valentine's posture that he didn't want to show his hole cards directly, and wanted to grind the price with Fang Lang more, but Fang Lang didn't want to waste time with Valentine here, so he said directly: "Mr. Valentine, the P08 with the long barrel on your left hand is an artillery type, and the short barrel on your right hand is a naval type, these two Lugers are relatively rare types, especially this naval type, which should be a very rare type in the American market, so I hope we can all quote the right price openly and honestly." If I can get the best deal, if not, I'll go and find the next buyer, okay? ”

"Fang, you're right, these two Lugers are indeed different from the standard type I have seen, I don't know what the price in your heart is!" Since Fang Lang had already explained the specific situation of the gun, he obviously had a certain understanding of the information of the gun, so Valentine said tentatively again.

"Mr. Valentine, do you want one or both?" Fang Lang was no longer verbose.

"If the price is right, of course I want both to be the best."

"If you want both, my offer is $3,000, I don't know if you can accept it."

"Oh! Oh, my God! Fang's offer is too high, such a high price, no one will accept it, this is just a mass-produced industrial product, even if he has a certain collection value, but it is not so high. Mr. Valentine said with an incredulous expression.

"Since Mr. Valentine finds it unacceptable to the price, we will have to see if there are any real buyers. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Valentine. Fang Lang saw Valentine's expression, and didn't want to entangle with him, so he stood up directly, wanting to put away the pistol on the table and put it back in his backpack.

Valentine, as a businessman, apparently did not meet such an opponent who retreated directly without a word. Hurriedly got up and said: "Fang, don't be impulsive, everyone does business, and the price always has to be discussed!" Shall we sit down and have a cup of coffee and talk again? ”

"Mr. Valentine, I don't need coffee, I'm not a businessman, I'm a soldier, if you are really interested in the Ruger in my hand, I suggest you don't beat around the bush, it's better to give a price that matches its value, if I think it's suitable, we'll make a deal directly, okay?"

"Haha..... All right! As a veteran of World War I, we are all soldiers, so be direct. I was able to accept the price of two thousand dollars. ”

"This is not an offer that a veteran can offer, Mr. Valentine, you were already prepared to spend twelve hundred dollars on two standard models. But this is an artillery type, and a cherished navy type, and I don't think the price is really in line with the value of these two Rugers. I'll let another $200, this is my last reserve price, $2,800, if you can accept it, we'll make a deal, if not, I'll see if Mr. Wan can help me find a new buyer. If I really can't, I'll have to defend myself. ”

Fang Lang knew that Valentine's offer of 1,000 was that Fang Lang didn't know the goods, so he took out this offer again and disgusted Valentine.

"Fang, two thousand five hundred dollars. The price definitely matches their value, no problem I'll pay in cash right now. Valentine's face ached.

"Mr. Valentine, as I said, I'm a soldier, two thousand eight hundred dollars, if you can accept it, we'll make a deal. Since you can't accept it, then I can only look for the next buyer. After speaking, he turned his head to Wan Chongxin, who had not made a sound next to him, and said: "Mr. Wan, I think you have to hurry up and help me find the next buyer, I don't know if you have qualified customers on your hands." ”

Seeing Fang Lang put the gun into his backpack, Wan Chongxin, who got up and stood up, also quickly stood up and said, "Mr. Fang, of course it's no problem, I can continue to take you to another very powerful buyer now." ”

Although he wanted to make a deal directly, the two sides could not negotiate, so he could only stand on Fang Lang's side, because the goods were in his hands, and if he didn't have him, he would not have the opportunity to get the intermediary fee.

Seeing that the two of them were about to give up the business directly without looking back, Valentine could only say at the last moment: "Okay! Fang, you win. Although your offer is really high, but who told me to really like these two good things! Sold for $2,800. ”

Fang Lang heard that Valentine finally agreed to settle the deal for 2,800 US dollars, and his heart was overjoyed, and he turned his head quietly and said, "Believe me, Mr. Valentine, this deal is definitely worth the money, and you won't regret it." ”

Seeing the hands of the two clasped tightly, Wan Chongxin also breathed a sigh of relief, because as a rookie who had just entered the industry, he would not be able to find so many buyers in his hands for a while, and he had thought about it, if he couldn't make a deal, he could only share the income with another intermediary to find new customers.

Fortunately, Valentine agreed to the deal so that he would not only receive the brokerage fee, but also a fifty dollar bounty in Mr. Valentine's hands. That's a lot of money, and I don't have to worry about eating for at least a month.
