Chapter 35: Jade Selling Incident (Part )
The above.
That's why he wanted to buy the jade pendant.
If the profit can be changed dozens of times, and if a little favorable evidence is found, the profit may be hundreds or even thousands of times. The business can really make a profit within three years.
"I brought it." Zhao Shi nodded and took out the wrapped jade pendant from his pocket.
When the old man saw Zhao Shi taking out the jade pendant from his pocket, he felt distressed. If this thing were to fall, get bumped, or get dented, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars would be gone!!!
The old man did not take Zhao Shi's jade pendant, but took out a tray covered with velvet, motioned Zhao Shi to put the jade pendant on it, and said: "In our line of work, we are particular about not handling jade, so as to avoid any misunderstandings!"
"I see! I've seen similar jokes on short videos!"
As Zhao Shi spoke, he opened the soft cloth wrapping the jade pendant and placed it on the tray.
Unlike the anchor, the old man took out a magnifying glass and looked at it carefully, inch by inch, even every position where the carver made a cut, and he carefully judged and thought about why the carver made such a cut at that time.
This watching took half an hour.
Be carried away.
The more I look at it, the happier I feel.
Jade heart!
The real jade heart!
The compactness of the jade far exceeds that of ordinary mutton-fat white jade, and it can be called the essence of mutton-fat white jade.
It can't even be called a jade heart.
But it is the legendary chalcedony.
Solidified chalcedony.
The anchor didn't look at it carefully. If he had used a magnifying glass, he wouldn't have given a reserve price of one million. Ten million is not considered high.
It is very likely that this is the only one in the world.
As an old hand in this industry and someone who specializes in jade research, even if he has never seen some priceless ancient jades, he must have heard of them.
No!
Absolutely not.
Not to mention seeing it, I've never even heard of it.
Truly priceless.
A treasure that can only be found by chance.
If you miss this, you may never encounter it again in your life.
Take it!
Must be taken.
We must get it at all costs.
The old man was excited inside, but his face remained expressionless.
Zhao Shi did not urge him. After all, it was only right to look at something worth a million carefully.
"call"
"Okay, the thing is right!"
About a quarter of an hour later, the old man put down the magnifying glass in his hand, rubbed his dry eyes, let out a long sigh, nodded and said.
"Mr. Zhao, there is nothing wrong with the jade pendant, but the carving is still a flaw. If the sculptor doesn't become famous in the future, I won't lose my principal, but there are many things I can do with a cash flow of one million. Moreover, this process may take more than ten or twenty years, and the interest alone will be a huge sum of money."
"Eight hundred thousand!"
"One price, eight hundred thousand. I'll pay it right away!"
Putting down the magnifying glass in his hand, the old man did not look up, but thought for a moment before looking at Zhao Shi and said.
Judging from Zhao Shi’s attire and his eagerness to sell, he was obviously short of money. How could one not bargain down when meeting such a person?
Although he is a jade appraiser, he is essentially a businessman.
The instinct of a businessman is to make the greatest profit.
But he forgot that he was a businessman, but Zhao Shi was not a businessman.
When Zhao Shi heard that the agreed price was directly reduced by 200,000, he felt impatient.
The merchant might bargain and talk about the advantages of the jade pendant to bring the price back down, but unfortunately, Zhao Shi was not a merchant, but an ordinary person with a bit of scholarly spirit.
I don't like or am good at negotiation.
Therefore, Zhao Shi wrapped the jade pendant again.
Can you give us 20% off the agreed price?
What's more, the carving was something he knew from the beginning. He was simple but not stupid. The carving was just like what the anchor said, a flaw, but it could also be an opportunity.
The anchor said that one million was the reserve price, and if someone liked it, it might be higher. Zhao Shi didn't need a higher price, as long as he followed the agreed deal, there would be no problem.
Are you bargaining now?
He even cut down 200,000 yuan. 200,000 yuan! It was more than enough to buy back his ancestral home and a few acres of land.
The old man looked at Zhao Shi's actions in confusion.
I don’t know what Zhao Shi wants to do.
After Zhao Shi wrapped the jade pendant and put it back into his pocket, the old man finally reacted and said quickly: "Mr. Zhao, if you are not satisfied with the price, we can negotiate."
"Boss Zhang, I'm not a businessman, and I don't know how to negotiate business. From my perspective, if you want it sincerely, I will sell it to you sincerely. Now that you don't want it sincerely, I will naturally not sell it to you."
Zhao Shi shook his head.
The old man stared at Zhao Shi, trying to read from Zhao Shi's eyes whether he was playing hard to get or if he really didn't intend to sell.
pity!
He didn't see anything.
hesitate!
hesitate!
Not even a little dodging.
"Okay, one million, just one million. I admit the loss. Who made me really like this thing?" The old man finally said after gritting his teeth.
Bargaining is actually a strategy. What if he agrees? Even if he doesn't agree, what if the other party thinks he's selling too cheap after he agrees?
Such things are common, and you must fully understand the seller's psychology to ensure success.
Besides, if he asked for one million and the other party agreed, he would feel that he had paid too high and would feel uncomfortable. This would be an insult to him as a successful businessman.
The psychological imbalance between buyers and sellers needs to be smoothed out in the bargaining process.
Make both the buyer and the seller feel that they have gotten a good deal, and there will be no unexpected changes in the transaction.
I didn't expect that this person would not play by the rules and just pack up and leave?
It completely disrupted his rhythm.
But Zhao Shi ignored his words and walked straight out of the reception room.
Zhao Shi’s idea was very simple.
He is not a businessman and cannot bargain as well as the professionals, so he won't sell it. Otherwise, he will not feel happy even if he sells it.
Anyway, the things are here. As long as you are sure that they are real and worth the price, you don’t have to worry about not being able to sell them. The more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes.
Just like today, he was just too impatient
I guess this is why the other party bargained.
Seeing Zhao Shi was about to leave, the old man's face changed completely. As long as the sculptor of this jade pendant was identified, its value would be immeasurable. Once he left, he would regret it for the rest of his life. It was even possible that this jade pendant was the biggest bargain he had ever picked up in his life.
regret!
I regret having done something unnecessary.
"Young man!"
Seeing that Zhao Shi was about to walk out of the room, the old man made up his mind in a hurry and called out to Zhao Shi in a cold voice.
At this time, I don’t care about whether I am a gentleman or not.
The right thing to do is to keep the jade pendant.
Of course he wouldn't do anything illegal.
But it’s okay to use some extraordinary measures.
As long as one million is transferred to Zhao Shi, the jade pendant will be in his hands. Combined with the chat records and live broadcast of that day, it will be enough to prove that he bought the jade pendant.
Once the fact is established, he is confident that he can get the jade pendant even without a contract.
It must be that this jade pendant is too precious, otherwise he would not have used such means.
Disdain does not mean inability.
Having been in the jade business for so many years, what has he not encountered? If he really abided by the law and was like an ordinary person, he would not have the wealth and status he has today.
There is a saying circulating on the Internet nowadays: 'The money earned by workers is the cleanest'. This is actually absolutely true.
If you count any rich person's money, you will find some irregularities.
Even if those who claim to be clean are really clean, are they? At least the asset evaluation in the loan item can be manipulated in many ways.
"Is there something?" Zhao Shi also heard the coldness in the old man's tone when he called him, so he turned to look at the old man with a playful smile on his face.
Zhao Shi doesn't cause trouble, but he is not afraid of it either. Before coming here, Zhao Shi had thought about all kinds of possible situations, and the current situation was also within his expectations.
Please forgive me, I forgot to write the chapter title in the last chapter! ! ! !
