The next day, Ruth arrived as promised—

"Morning Mr. Su, the weather is good today, but there is bad news-"

"What?"

"I'm afraid we won't be able to go out today, and the master has come to order, saying that the guests will be here today, and let me take you to the manor."

"That's good news, I've been waiting for a long time, let's go."

On the way, Su Zizai took out a mutton fat jade pendant from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Ruth and said: "Thank you for your company these days, I am very happy, and I also know a lot about the cultural customs of your country, I think we are already friends, a small gift, please don't refuse." ”

"Oh! God, mutton fat jade, this is a treasure, it is worth a lot of money in our place, how embarrassing is this. ”

"We're friends, aren't we, you're welcome."

"Well, thank you for your generosity."

"If you like it."

"Thank you! I like it very much. ”

The two talked for a long time before arriving at William's manor, who was waiting for him at the door early.

"Good morning, my friend, I heard Ruth say you've had a great time these days, haven't you?"

"Of course, William, your butler is not simple, it can almost be said that he is proficient in the historical past of my Ming Dynasty, which is very admirable."

"As long as you don't feel sluggish, please—"

"Thank you! By the way, how many people are willing to buy my goods? ”

"I have to say, you have a good eye for my friend, these things you bring are in demand and many people want them."

Grandma's foreigner, are you praising people or burying people, don't you bring this thing with you in the ocean business, what does it have to do with your vision, but I heard him say that there are many people who like his goods, Su Zizai is still very happy.

Looking at the empty hall, Su Zi said with a smile: "William, what about the buyer?" ”

"They're with my father, you wait a minute, I'll call someone."

"Okay, you please—you please—"

William went to call his invited guest, and his housekeeper Ruth quickly followed him, and gave William the mutton fat jade pendant that Su Zizai gave him in his hand: "Master, this is a gift from your guest on the way to the beginning, saying that it is to thank you for your company in the past few days." ”

William took it and played with it and said with a smile: "The condition is good, this friend of mine is really generous, this can only be bought for more than two hundred taels of silver, you can keep it as a souvenir." ”

"Thank you, host!" Although she said it indifferently, from the trembling corners of her eyes, you can see how excited she is in her heart,

Su Zi sat and rested on the sofa with the servant to the side, and it didn't take long for William to come over again: "Su, it's ready, please come with me." ”

"Okay, thank you!"

"Sue, there is something I want to tell you in advance, so that we don't have any misunderstanding in a while." On the way, William said with a smile.

"Please, but I'm sure there won't be any misunderstanding between us."

William nodded and said: "You know, your country and my country have always stated their claims in the Mediterranean, and no one will give in, and now the tense atmosphere there is almost suffocating, and most of the people who come today are upper-class nobles, so when they talk about the price for a while, they may not be too friendly." ”

Who is this girl fooling, my Ming Dynasty has not expanded for many years, and the tense atmosphere is not caused by you, this group of gringos is stingy and not a thing.

"William, my friend, I'm sure you won't take advantage of the fire, right?"

"Of course, we're friends, how could I do such a thing."

Exercise! It's the same as saying that the two of us have an adulterous relationship, this girl is not a good bird by nature, I want to be in Daming back then, and this product has not been a lot of interactions, every time I speak politely, and when it comes to business, it is a hair of love and I don't tell you.

"Okay, I'm relieved to have your words, just talk about it in a while, I'm a pure businessman, I don't care about politics, I just think that I can sell the goods this time, and everything else is easy to talk about."

Hearing his words, William shook his head with a smile, not knowing what he meant, probably thinking that Su Zi was very naïve.

Follow William to a richly decorated living room, where many people are chatting one after another, all wearing gentleman's clothes, seeing Su Zi following William in, they immediately sat upright, looking at Su Zi curiously.

William took Su Zizai to the other end of the long table, bent over and muttered for a while before saying to Su Zizai: "Su, this is my father and the current leader of our family. ”

Su Zizai immediately arched his hand and said: "Under Su Zi, a friend of William Daming, it is a great honor to be able to meet the old man, this is the wild cistanche I brought from the Ming Dynasty, the first time I met, a small gift is not a tribute." ”

Seeing the gift, the old man was obviously very happy and said, "Thank you!" Have a seat. Old William pointed to an empty chair in his left hand and invited Su Zi to sit, Su Zi was not polite, and when he said thank you, he sat down.

Old William said: "Gentlemen, today's protagonist has come, I know that your time is precious, please Mr. Su Zizai introduce the baby you brought first." ”

Since Old William said this, it means that he has no intention of letting Su Zizai know others, and there are no more than two reasons for this situation: one is to look down on him, officials and businessmen have looked down on each other since ancient times, but they still have to rely on each other and take what they need. The second is that he wants to maintain a one-line contact with Su Zizai to ensure his interests, no matter what the reason, it is very fucked, and it seems that the business environment here is not good.

These Su Zizai don't care, after all, he is not a good bird.

I saw him stand up and say: "Don't be so troublesome, I have prepared dozens of lists in advance, the name, quantity, and price of the goods I brought, you can take your time, and we will talk about the price after you are optimistic, you and William know each other, that is also my friend Su Zizai, everything is easy to talk about between us, we don't care about people." ”

Seeing that Su Zi was about to personally send a list to everyone, William hurriedly came over and said, "Su, you are very well prepared, oh God!" It's actually written in the language of both countries and you, and it's really thoughtful, but please take a seat, come on! ”

Immediately a servant came, and William handed them the list and motioned for them to go and send it to everyone. Someone does it for you, and Suzi is happy to be idle.

A group of people got the list, quietly from the beginning to the end, and then began to talk to each other, these people are really strange, can't they talk, they have to talk to each other, old William is also communicating with the people around him, speaking the French language, Su Zi can't understand.

"Sue, they are discussing how to divide the items they want, and then there is the issue of price, it is estimated that it will take a little time, there are many snacks here, you can use a little at will." Seeing that Su Zi was looking left and right inexplicably, William immediately came over to explain to him.

The old guy is trying to rip off the bamboo.

Su Zizai didn't mind this, and could see that William also wanted to join them, and Su Zi was letting him take care of himself.

Looking at a group of people who were still chattering, Su Zi finally figured out why they put such a big table when they were talking about business, and it was full of food, this girl, a small problem can be solved for a long time, he has run to the toilet six or seven times, and he hasn't seen them stop yet.

Just as he yawned and wondered if he should let William prepare a room to sleep in for a while, they finally agreed.

"I'm sorry Mr. Su, I've kept you waiting."

"It's okay, it won't be long, I don't know how you talked about it."

"It's been negotiated, but there are many places that I'm afraid that you will be disappointed, and we can't all consume your huge goods, at most we can only take sixty percent, and please have a bottom in your heart, of course, if you agree to sell at a low price, we can't take them all, you know, it takes a long time to consume these goods, and the storage cost is not low."

"It's nothing, I have to ask you to sit on the ground and pay back, and I don't have any friends when I first come to Baodi, it's not a matter of earning more or less, the key is to make friends with everyone."

"Gu De, I like you as a friend, in that case, let's talk about the agreed distribution and price of items."

"I want this batch of small dishes and matching spoons and trays, and I will give it to you at a price of 100 yuan." One person was the first to speak, but the other party didn't even say his name, which was very arrogant.

, this price can be sold well in Daming, it's really sold at this price, I still have to lose the bottom of it, and I even have the face to say that this is a friendship price, not a person, I dress like five people and six people, and I don't do personnel. However, there are still bidders in the back, so Su Zi is preparing to dry him first.

But the latter thing made him a little dumbfounded, of course, everyone wants good things in Daming, and they all want to compete, and then the seller lets you get the highest price, but here is not according to this routine at all, as long as someone in front of you says something you want, the people in the back are not contaminated, how can this work.

Patiently waiting for them to negotiate some of the bargaining prices cut a little outrageous, Su Zizai stood up and said: "Your quotation must be based on your own needs, cognition, and finally determined, but to be honest, this price and my expectations in my heart are a bit big, so, you haven't seen my batch of goods, I rented a large exhibition hall here, which has samples of all my goods, please watch it on the spot and then talk about the price?" ”

"Oh! - Sue, why haven't I heard about this, are you serious? ”

"Of course, William, in order to ensure your interests, the exhibition hall has been set up for two days and I have not been open to the public, so let's go and have a look together, so that we can have an intuitive feeling, and then talk about the price is much better."

Listening to Su Zizai's words, William and his father muttered for a while, and then there was a round of exchange of ears on the scene, judging from the expressions of these people, Su Zizai's proposal made many people feel a little unhappy, but for the benefit of their own family, they also had to go.

Fortunately, they all came with carriages, and it was not difficult to change places.

Soon a group of people came to Su Zizai's exhibition hall, which was full of dazzling items that made them sink, exquisite brocade, luxurious porcelain, and beautiful jade.

"God, I can't believe that there is such a beautiful cloth in the world, this is exactly what I want, Su Zizai, this is my goods, say how much do you want."

"This gentleman, the price is all marked on it."

"No, no, no, your price is outrageous, I don't have to make any money."

"No, I also set the price after fully considering your interests, and everyone will make money."
