Chapter 381: The Battle of Prices
Buchen thought about it and felt that there was only this good way for people.
Along the way, the merchant chattered endlessly: "Brother, all this I did today can be regarded as accumulating good deeds!"
Buchen didn't say much, he just followed behind.
When they arrived at the tailor's shop, the merchant who sold the horses pulled the lady of the tailor's shop aside at once.
"Boss, I'll discuss something with you, can you help me see how much the clothes that kid is wearing are worth!"
The proprietress of the tailor shop is dressed up in a fancy.
The proprietress couldn't get used to the smell of horse manure on the businessman, but after all, there was business coming to her door, and she could only put up with it again and again.
The proprietress said, "This brother, you can rest assured!"
The proprietress twisted her fat body and slowly walked towards Buchen. The proprietress looked at Buchen handsomely, so she said teasingly: "This little handsome guy looks a little good, it shouldn't be from our Qiao County!"
Buchen responded politely: "I'm a person from Beijing!"
"It turned out to be from the capital, or he looked so good-looking!" After speaking, the proprietress had already started it.
Buchen could smell the rouge smell on the proprietress from a long distance, and when he got closer, the smell became even stronger.
The proprietress saw that Buchen was shy, and her interest became even stronger, touching Buchen's shoulder, and said, "This little brother looks very nervous!"
"No, it's nothing, I hope you can hurry!"
If the proprietress had been good-looking, I believe Buchen would not have said such a thing.
The proprietress said: "This is a test of patience to make clothes, if there is a bad amount, then it must not mess up the size!"
Buchen was speechless all of a sudden, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, what you taught is it!"
The businessman standing on the side couldn't stand it, because he could see that the proprietress was obviously taking advantage of the dust.
The merchant pulled the proprietress over, and the proprietress changed her face all of a sudden. Of course, Buchen can be regarded as relieved.
The merchant hurriedly asked, "How is it, how much is that dress worth?"
The proprietress said with a disdainful face: "It's worth seven or eight taels of silver!"
When the merchant heard this, he secretly scolded the proprietress for being black-hearted, but he didn't say it, but said: "Boss, I think you shouldn't have seen it clearly, there is a gold thread on that dress!"
How could the merchant be so easily deceived, he knew the gold thread on his clothes, and it was absolutely impossible to exchange those gold for silver.
The proprietress said impatiently: "Then I'll take a look twice!"
The merchant was afraid of this, so she didn't have a head, and hurriedly said: "Boss, don't worry, as long as you accept the clothes on that kid, I still have to buy a dress for him here, and you have time to see him!"
Hearing this, the proprietress directly patted the merchant on the shoulder and said, "You said that you are a person, why didn't you say it earlier?"
The merchant smiled and said, "Then according to the proprietress meaning, how much is this dress worth!"
After all, the clothes on Buchen's body are from the royal family, and the value of this dress alone is of the highest quality, both in terms of workmanship and material selection.
The proprietress said directly: "I'm a straight-hearted person, I don't like those twists and turns, twenty taels of silver, if it's okay, then we can make a deal!"
When the merchant heard this number, he was moved, but he himself understood that although the proprietress had given the money to this price, it was still much lower.
The merchant immediately showed a dissatisfied expression and said: "The price you offered is too low, I still pay out of my own pocket to buy him a dress, and I will still sell this dress to someone else's place!"
The merchant obviously wanted to sell the dress, but he deliberately said so in order to raise the price.
The proprietress hadn't seen such a good dress for so long, and she really wanted to accept it, but she didn't want to pay a high price.
The proprietress shook her head and said, "I've already given the price to the highest, I really can't add it, if it's okay, I'll sell it, if not, you better go somewhere else to take a look!"
The merchant was very shrewd, he directly grabbed Buchen and said, "Since this family doesn't want to do business, then let's go to another place to have a look!"
Buchen was very unhappy when he heard this, and he said, "You know that I am short of time, why do you still have to do these twists and turns with me?"
The merchant said, "Well, I won't sell this horse anymore, you better find someone else to buy it!"
Things had come to this point, and if he went to find someone else, the time would only be delayed even longer.
Buchen followed the merchant and was slowly leaving the tailor's shop.
Just when the two of them wanted to go out, the proprietress of the tailor's shop couldn't help it, because he really wanted this dress so much.
The proprietress said: "Since this little brother is so anxious, I will give you some price, what do you think of twenty-five taels?"
As long as the proprietress opens her mouth, it means that the businessman wins.
When the merchant heard this, he began to whisper in his heart, although this price made him very excited, but he also knew that the price could be raised.
The merchant didn't stop at all, he just paused for a moment, and then continued to walk!
"Thirty taels!"
The merchant still didn't stop!
"Forty taels!"
"Fifty taels! no more, and if you keep going, I won't stop you!" the proprietress of the tailor's shop gasped for air.
The merchant smiled, then suddenly turned around and said, "Deal, but if you want to give him another piece of clothing, you must give it for free!"
The proprietress sighed and said, "If I hadn't seen that this dress was very well made and wanted to learn the above techniques, I wouldn't have spent this unjust money!"
The merchant pulled Buchen and said, "I'll leave the horse outside the door for you, and after the proprietress has made your clothes, you can leave." β
Buchen said politely: "Thank you, big brother!"
"Don't thank me, you have to thank this lady too, if she hadn't been so generous, we might have gone to another tailor's shop!"
Buchen didn't dare to look up at the proprietress of the tailor shop, but lowered his head and said, "Thank you, proprietress boss!"
The proprietress held the silver taels on the counter and said, "Then it depends on how you thank me!"
Hearing this, Buchen's ears turned red all of a sudden!
The merchant can't care so much now, he just wants to get the money and leave.
The proprietress put the whole fifty taels of silver into the merchant's hand, and said, "In this way, the two of us do not owe each other!"
The merchant counted the money unhurriedly, his face full of joy, after all, he had made such a large sum of money!
In fact, the real winner is the proprietress of the tailor shop, how can the dress Buchen wear only be worth a mere fifty taels of silver?
After the merchant counted the money, he said with a smile: "I'll hand over that person to you, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first!"
The proprietress of the tailor's shop had long wanted the merchant to leave, because then she could do it.
The proprietress of the tailor shop suddenly showed a reluctant look and said, "I have fifty taels of real money, so I cheapened you!"
The merchant had already achieved his goal and got the money he wanted, so he didn't care about anything more at all.
The merchant smiled and said, "I believe in your vision, that dress must be more than fifty taels of silver!" After saying that, the merchant hurried away.
Before leaving, the merchant said: "Little brother, I have always been the most honest in business, and I will leave the horse outside the door for you!"
"Thank you, big brother!"
"You're welcome, this is what I should do!" said the merchant, and before leaving, he carefully closed the door of the tailor's shop.
The proprietress of the tailor shop was a little overjoyed, and said in her heart: "I didn't expect this person to be quite knowledgeable and able to understand my mind." β
Seeing that the door was closed, Buchen was a little scared, he looked at the boss's wife's wide-hearted and fat figure, and felt scared when he thought about it.
Buchen stepped forward and said, "It's broad daylight, close the door, so how can you do business!" After speaking, he wanted to open the door.
Although the proprietress is very fat, but it is unusually smart, she turned around twice with a light attitude, blocked the door, and did not give way to the dust to open the door.
The proprietress said: "Little brother, what are you afraid of, the slave family is not a tiger, can it eat you?"
Buchen was very nervous, sweat was dripping from his face, and while wiping the sweat, he said: "I don't mean that, I just feel a little hot in this room, and I want to open the doors and windows to breathe!"
The proprietress pounced directly and said, "The slave family also thinks that this house is hot, so it is better for the slave family to untie the little brother's clothes!
Buchen hurriedly changed his words and said: "I was wrong just now, I'm not hot, but cold, and all I have cold sweat on my body!"
If Buchen thought that he could get out in this way, then he would be too naΓ―ve.
The proprietress said happily: "It's better to follow the slave family upstairs, and the slave family can make a pot of hot tea for the little brother!"
"No, no, I'm still in a hurry, so it's inconvenient to stay for a long time. β
Just as Buchen wanted to leave, the proprietress of the tailor shop suddenly blocked the front and said, "Little brother, there is no problem for you to go, but the clothes on your body are already mine, so if you take them away like this, isn't it not good? After all, I bought them for fifty taels of silver!"
Buchen touched the clothes on his body, then sighed and said, "Then it's still bothering the boss, according to the agreement, you can make me a new dress!"
"No problem, but shouldn't we measure the size before we make clothes?"
This is the first time in Buchen's life that he feels misogynistic about women since he grew up.
Buchen said secretly in his heart: "Little cabbage, even if I am for you, I will definitely protect my chastity!"
If the proprietress is unusually beautiful, Buchen should immediately change to another face. Lai in the tailor's shop, the kind that refuses to leave for a long time.
The proprietress pinched the ruler with her orchid fingers, ready to measure Buchen's size.
The proprietress said: "Little brother, if we measure the clothes like this, there will definitely be an error, and I hope that the little brother can take off the clothes outside." β
Buchen was a little embarrassed, but the proprietress looked at him embarrassed, and the more excited she felt.
The proprietress said, "It's all such a big boy! What are you afraid of?"
Buchen stretched out his hand and said, "Wait, let me think about it, I don't seem to have something to deal with!"
"Don't think about it, it's cold to think about daylily!"
