Of course Chu Chen wanted to get such a rare bronze Arhat statue from the mid-Ming Dynasty, but he didn't dare to show too much enthusiasm, otherwise Shi Papi would know his thoughts. Not to mention it was cheap, not much. It¡¯s already good money to spend! Don¡¯t you see, does this guy even want a watch that someone else is wearing? When Shi Papi saw Chu Chen putting the things away with a calm expression, he couldn't help but wonder. Could it be that he didn't even take a fancy to such a good thing? As mentioned before, although Shi Papi is a bit harsh on buyers, he is still very kind to his colleagues. Of course, this kindness is relative, and it is not easy to take advantage of him. However, although it does not take any advantage of him, generally speaking, he rarely lies about information such as the origin of things. He believed that Chu Chen still knew this. Besides, not to mention that he thought this thing was good. Yesterday, he asked a friend to help him look at it, and the other party was also full of praise. If his friend hadn't been in a hurry, he would have liked this statue of Arhat on the spot. Will buy it. Because of this, he felt a little strange about Chu Chen's calm expression, and thought to himself, if Chu Chen couldn't even look down on this kind of thing, then his vision would be too high! "Boss Chu, what do you think of this thing?" Shi Papi asked quickly. "It's okay! It just feels a little small!" Chu Chen replied. Shi Papi is also an old man. When he heard this, he knew that Chu Chen really wanted to buy it. Now, he was just looking for shortcomings and preparing to bargain. This made him relieved and couldn't help but think. It seems that Chu Chen acted so calmly just now to give him an illusion. Shi Papi¡¯s brain reaction is very fast. In the blink of an eye, I guessed exactly what Chu Chen was thinking, so I said. It's really not that easy to take advantage of him. He smiled and said: "Boss Chu, although this Arhat statue is small, it is made of copper. What is the status of copper in ancient times? I guess people like you don't understand, right? And this Arhat statue is quite well made. I can say that my Arhat statue is not only one of the best among such statues in the Ming Dynasty, but it is also quite rare." When Chu Chen heard what Shi Papi said, he immediately knew that Shi Papi had asked others for advice. Yes, otherwise how could he know so clearly at his level? "Yes! It seems that this thing is not cheap anymore!" Chu Chen shook his head secretly. "Boss Chu, do you want this?" Shi Papi asked with a smile. "Yes! But we'll talk about the price later. Let me see something first!" Chu Chen replied. "Okay! That thing is put away for you!" Shi Papi chuckled, and then took the Arhat statue back. Chu Chen nodded, and then browsed the things on the stall. Then he picked up a pen holder and looked at it. This pen holder is made of pastel porcelain from the Republic of China and is in the shape of a straight cylinder. Apply sauce-colored glaze to the rim. The interior is plain, and the main decoration on the outer wall is a panoramic landscape painting. The overall effect is quite literati. It's still a collectible item, so it's not bad to buy it. However, Chu Chen¡¯s goal was not this pen holder. After he put down the pen holder, he picked up a few rusty things next to him and looked at them. So he asked: "Boss Shi, how much do these things cost?" "Two hundred for each. Three of them totaling six hundred for you, what do you think?" Shi Papi replied with a smile. Chu Chen was speechless and said: "Boss Shi, you think I'm a stick, but you still need six hundred for this kind of thing? No one wants sixty!" Shi Papi chuckled, and then said: "Boss Chu , Mingren don¡¯t tell secrets, you must have taken a fancy to my pen holder!" Chu Chen felt happy when he heard what he said, and said to himself: "I knew you would think so!" Then he picked it up again! He looked at the pen holder carefully, as if it were a treasure. After looking at it for a while, he raised his head and looked at Shi Papi and asked, "How much does it cost to sell this holder and the Arhat statue together?" Shi Papi knew that Chu Chen really wanted to buy it, and he was very happy in his heart, so he waved his hand and said: "Boss Chu, we are all in the same industry, so we don't come here for free. The two of them add up to a total of fifty thousand. What do you think?" ?" These words are really hearty and generous. People who don't understand really think that he is giving you an advantage. But Chu Chen didn't know that, let alone his purchase price for this thing, even if the market price was the same, it would still be less than 50,000, so he curled his lips and said: "Boss Shi, I won't say more about your pen holder. You can¡¯t get it for more than 200 yuan. As for this Arhat statue, I admit it¡¯s really good, but even if you go to an auction company, it¡¯s not that big! I can only give you 8,000 yuan for both items!¡± It¡¯s a sky-high asking price.When they landed to pay back the money, they were all colleagues, and they knew their respective bottom lines to some extent. Shi Papi said with a sad face: "Boss Chu, to be honest with you, if it is normal, eight thousand is eight thousand, I will definitely give it without saying a word." You, but these two things are not cheap for me, especially this Arhat statue. I bought it after begging the old man for a while. I will transfer it to you for eight thousand. I am selling it at a loss. You are the big one. Boss, you can¡¯t bear to let me not get my money back, right? How about I give you five thousand?¡± ¡°For a profiteer like you, I¡¯m happy to let you not get my money back!¡± Chu Chen muttered to himself, then Said: "Boss Shi, you are also an old man in our industry. You should know the approximate price of these two things. Let's be happy, just 13,000!" Shi Papi said with a bitter face: "Boss Chu, it's not me. I don¡¯t want to sell, but I have to support my family, so you can earn some for me" At this point, he gritted his teeth and said cruelly: "I will give you another seven thousand, the minimum is thirty-eight thousand, if you want Just take it!" "I can pay up to sixteen thousand!" Chu Chen gritted his teeth and refused to let go. Shi Papi cupped his hands and said: "Hey, Boss Chu, you are already a big boss with a net worth of hundreds of millions, so give me some profits!" Chu Chen waved his hand: "You can't say that, I The money is earned through hard work. If I buy something for someone else, I will lose a lot of money." Hearing this, Shi Papi muttered in his heart that he would make a lot of money by betting a few times. Hundreds of millions, you worked so hard! "Let's do this. I'll give you another five thousand. No matter how low it is, I won't be able to sell it!" Chu Chen still shook his head and said, "Boss Shi, I'm also a businessman. You have to give me some concessions." A little profit, otherwise you will make a profit, but I will lose a lot. I will give you another four thousand, up to twenty thousand! "As mentioned above, the things on the stall Generally, the price is not fixed. The price of these two items was less than one thousand. If it were someone else, he would definitely have sold them for twenty thousand. But who calls Chu Chen a big boss? If he doesn't take more money out of Chu Chen's pocket, will he still be called Shi Papi? Seeing Chu Chen's resolute attitude and the situation reaching a deadlock, Old Man Yang thought about it and decided to give it another try. He said to Chu Chen with a smile on his face: "Boss Chu, let's each take a step back. I'll suffer some losses. Let's forget it." Okay, twenty-five thousand. Besides, didn¡¯t you ask for those three things just now? I¡¯ll give them to you too!¡± When Chu Chen heard what he said, he was so sleepy that he felt so happy that he felt so happy. The one on offer was one of those three things, which was one of the reasons why he was so aggressive about the price. However, Shi Papi was too smart. If he rashly said he wanted that thing, he would definitely be suspicious. Therefore, he didn't think of any good ideas for a while. Now that Shi Papi had brought the pillow, even though he was happy, he couldn't agree right away, so he said somewhat unhappily: "Boss Shi, you are too unkind. Just these three pieces of rags. Worth five thousand?" Shi Papi chuckled and said, "What you said is that these three things are just for show. Of course, you won't suffer a loss if you buy them at this price." : "I definitely don't want 25,000. Let's do this. I'll pay you 23,000 even for these three people! I think this price is okay, and I won't add any more!" Shi Papi heard this He looked sad, as if he was still unhappy, but in fact he was already happy. Then he sighed and said: "We are all colleagues, so I will give you this price!" After saying that, he was ready to wrap up the things. Seeing that his goal was achieved, Chu Chen happily handed over the money to Shi Papi, then took the things and walked happily to his store. However, halfway through, Chu Chen received a call from his sister Chu Yulan, asking where he was. They were already waiting for him in Chu Chen's store. Chu Chen told her that he would go back immediately, and then hung up the phone. Returning to the reception room of the store, Chu Chen saw that in addition to his sister, people like Liu Sizhe were also here, and said: "Why are you all here? Are there no classes in the afternoon?" Chu Yulan was afraid that Chu Chen would go back and tell her parents. She skipped class and said quickly: "Yu Ting and I have no class in the afternoon!" Liu Sizhe chuckled and said, "Although we have class in the afternoon, it's just a side class. It doesn't matter whether you can take it or not!" Chu Chen said with a smile: "Come on. As for you, the king of skipping classes, there is no difference between the main class and the sub-class. I think Xiaoyue will have to teach you a lesson from now on!¡± Sound, stillLiu Sizhe and Wang Xiaoyue raised their eyebrows. We were all adults and almost all knew what Fatty Dong meant, so we couldn't help but laugh passionately at the two of them. Seeing this, Wang Xiaoyue's cheeks suddenly turned red with embarrassment. Liu Sizhe rushed directly to Fatty Dong, pulled his fat face with both hands, and laughed and scolded: "Fatty, your skin is itchy, let me loosen it for you." !" Fatty Dong shouted in pain: "Alas! Brother Liu, please be gentle" (To be continued)
