Chapter 308: Volume 3 Bartering

Views:

After inspecting the Thousand-Year-Old Pueraria and Thousand-Year Crystal Stone Grass, Kong Ming nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it is indeed a thousand-year-old spiritual grass! I don't know how many spiritual grasses of this age your company can provide. I want them all!”

The woman in palace clothes was overjoyed and said politely: "To be honest with you two young masters, the shop has only recently acquired these Thousand-Year-Old Gewu and Thousand-Year Crystal Stone Grass. I was originally planning to take part of them to participate in the auction. Now, Since the young master has taken a fancy to these thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, there is nothing wrong with transferring them all to the young master, but the price may be slightly higher than the market price."

Kong Ming nodded and said: "Millennium spiritual grass has always been priceless but not marketable. As long as the quality of these spiritual grasses is good, even if the charge is higher, it is reasonable."

The woman in palace clothes smiled and said: "Thank you for your understanding, sir. There are eight Thousand-year-old Gewu plants in the store's collection. If you want them all, then the price of each plant is 75,000 gold coins. As for the Thousand-year Crystal Grass, then They are even rarer, the shop only collects five of them, and the price is a little more expensive, each one costs 80,000 gold coins!"

According to the normal market price, Millennium Spirit Grass is generally around 50,000 to 60,000 gold coins, but this price has always been marketable, and the actual transaction price has always been higher than the market price. Therefore, Baicaofang's asking price is not too outrageous. If they really want to auction these thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, the price will probably be even higher. However, it is also beneficial for Baicao Fang to be able to make this big deal worth one million gold coins at once and save the trouble of participating in the auction.

When the woman in palace clothes reported the price, her face flushed with excitement. Because if this business is completed, she will earn tens of thousands of gold coins just from the commission, which is a high income that she has never thought of beforehand. In her opinion, these two noble men in front of her are really her nobles!

Kong Ming had no objection to the price quoted by the woman in palace clothes. He nodded and said: "As long as there is no problem with the quality of these spiritual herbs, then let's make the deal at this price!"

Kong Qingyun, who was next to him, changed his color slightly at this time, because Kong Ming said casually that it was equivalent to paying one million gold coins, which was not a small sum. At least for Kong Qingyun, unless he uses the power of his family, it is impossible for him to come up with such a large sum of money on his own.

It seems that Kong Ming's net worth is really very rich, and Kong Qingyun has begun to consider whether the joke of "hugging the thighs" will become a reality!

As for the woman in palace clothes, she was naturally even more excited when she heard that Kong Ming agreed to the transaction without paying back the price. She said to Kong Ming respectfully: "Please rest assured, young master, with the reputation of the shop, this batch of thousand-year-old spiritual grass will be in the market." There is absolutely no problem with the quality, and there is no way that there is any way to deceive the young master. Otherwise, the store will be ruining its own brand!"

At this time, Kong Qingyun smiled "hehe" from the side and said: "It's okay to smash your own sign, I'm just afraid that you will offend people who can't afford to offend!"

The woman in palace attire responded politely and quickly: "Don't worry, you two. You are the honored guests of our 'Changlong' headquarters. How could the shop play tricks on you?"

As the palace-dressed woman spoke, she ordered the two middle-aged men to quickly deliver all the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs for the two distinguished guests to evaluate.

The two middle-aged men hurried away, and the woman in palace clothes put on a smile and said: "These spiritual grass shops will naturally be prepared for the young master, but I don't know how the young master plans to conduct transactions?"

Kong Ming pondered for a while and said: "One million gold coins is indeed a large amount. I didn't prepare so much at the same time."

When Kong Ming said these words, he specifically observed the woman in palace attire and found that her expression was as usual, there was nothing unusual about her, and she did not look a little angry because of what he said. This is enough to show that the clerks in Baicaofang have been strictly trained and are not snobbish like those ordinary merchants.

Just imagine, if you can hold the VIP gold card of the "Changlong" head office, will you joke casually during transactions? Even if it involves a big deal like one million gold coins, there is nothing to worry about.

Kong Ming nodded secretly in his heart, and then smiled and said: "Although the gold coins are not enough, I still have a few valuable things on me. If I use them to exchange for these thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, it should be enough."

As Kong Ming spoke, he waved his hand and heard a crisp sound of ding-ding-dong-dong. More than ten Yuanli crystal cores shining with various colors of light appeared on the bluestone table!

These Yuanli crystal cores were all trophies distributed by Kong Ming after a battle in Qifeng Mountain. What he has taken out now is less than 10% of the total!

But even with less than 10% of the Yuanli crystal core, its light is enough to dazzle other people's eyes!

Although these Yuan Power Crystal Cores are not many in number, only a dozen or so, they are at least the Yuan Power Crystal Cores of fifth-level monsters, and there are even four Yuan Power Crystal Cores of sixth-order monsters!

High-end Yuanli crystal cores, like the Millennium Spiritual Grass, are often priceless in the market. Perhaps the price of the elemental power crystal core of the fifth-level magic beast is not as high as that of the Millennium Spirit Grass, but the price of the elemental power crystal core of the sixth-level magic beast is far higher!

If the more than ten Yuanli crystal cores in front of me are operated properly, their value is estimated to be no less than one million gold coins!

At this time, a sweet smile appeared on the face of the woman in palace clothes, and she said: "If you want to barter, you can do it in our Baicao House. I just want to ask you to wait a moment while the young lady goes to bring the shopkeeper's invitation." Come here so that you can settle accounts with the young master."

Kong Ming knew that barter needed to be appraised and calculated carefully. The woman in palace clothes in front of him would definitely not be able to become a householder. It was inevitable that the shopkeeper would come over to greet her, so he nodded calmly.

Kong Ming's calm attitude made the woman in palace clothes not dare to look down on Kong Ming in the slightest. She hurried away and asked the shopkeeper to come over and complete this big deal.

After a while, a woman in palace attire came to the private room with a short, fat and smiling old man in his fifties. Following them were the two middle-aged men who had just left, and they were holding more than ten crystal jade boxes in their hands.

As soon as the short and fat old man came in, he raised his hands politely and said: "My surname is Wu, and I am the shopkeeper of this Baicaofang. It is really my honor to serve these two young masters today."

Kong Ming remained calm and said very calmly: "Shopkeeper Wu, there is no need to say more polite words. I would like to ask you to estimate the value of these Yuanli crystal cores I took out to see if they are enough to exchange for these thousand-year-old spiritual grass."

Shopkeeper Wu nodded repeatedly and said: "Please wait a moment, young masters, I will start counting now."

As Shopkeeper Wu spoke, he began to take a closer look at the Yuanli crystal cores on the bluestone table, and would hold them in his hands from time to time to feel the surging Yuanli contained in the Yuanli crystal cores!

This shopkeeper Wu has the cultivation level of a junior general. If he follows the concept of respecting the strong in the cultivation world, he does not need to be so polite to Kong Ming and Kong Qingyun. However, he is the shopkeeper of Baicaofang who opens the door to do business, and it has become his instinct to greet people with a smile. Not to mention distinguished guests like Kong Ming and Kong Qingyun, even if an ordinary guest stood in front of him, he would not lack a smile!

After taking a closer look at the Yuan Power Crystal Cores that Kong Ming took out, Shopkeeper Wu repeatedly praised: "They are all Yuan Power Crystal Cores of high quality, especially these four Yuan Power Crystal Cores from level 6 monsters. There are actually two kinds of magic beasts, the Octopole Horned Bear and the Blood-fang Wolf. These two types of sixth-order magic beast Yuanli crystal cores have almost never been circulated on the market before, and their value is naturally higher. If the little old man calculates If there is no mistake, the total value of these seventeen Yuanli crystal cores should be around 1.1 million gold coins, which is already more than the price of the thousand-year-old spiritual grass that the young master needs."

Kong Ming still nodded calmly and said, "In that case, according to your store's rules, how should we conduct the transaction next?"

Shopkeeper Wu said politely: "I think there are two ways that are more suitable. One is for the young master to take back any three Yuanli crystal cores of the fifth-level monsters, and it will be an equivalent exchange of barter between us. The other is that the shop pays the young master one hundred thousand gold coins, and all the millennium spiritual herbs belong to the young master. As for the seventeen Yuanli crystal cores, the shop will naturally accept them all!"

Kong Ming smiled slightly and said: "Since we have taken out what we have, how can we take it back? Let's just make the transaction according to the second method mentioned by Shopkeeper Wu!"

Shopkeeper Wu nodded, bowed his hands and said, "Please wait a moment, young masters. Rong Xiaodian will prepare the gold coins and settle the settlement with you two."

As Shopkeeper Wu spoke, he winked at the woman in palace attire, and then waved over two middle-aged men, asking them to line up the jade boxes they were holding on the bluestone table and open the lids one by one. , said to Kong Ming and Kong Qingyun: "The small shop has always behaved in a very orderly manner, and I would like to ask you two to appraise the quality of these thousand-year-old spiritual herbs."

At this time, Kong Ming was not polite and took the jade box and looked at it one by one. After identifying each spiritual grass, he closed the lid of the box and placed the jade box next to him. After a while, a total of thirteen jade boxes were all inspected by Kong Ming and placed together.

After a while, the woman in palace attire came back with a stack of brand new gold tickets in her hand, which she handed to shopkeeper Wu.

Shopkeeper Wu laid these gold tickets flat on the bluestone table and said politely: "You two gentlemen, these are gold tickets issued by the bank under our head office 'Changlong'. Each one has a face value of 10,000." There are ten gold coins in total. With this gold ticket in hand, you can exchange the gold ticket for gold coins at any bank under the 'Changlong' banner. I wonder if you are satisfied with it, sir?"
