Chapter 30 Magical Artifacts Also Have a Market
Jiahao said: "Just go to the 'Jinliyuan Hotel' next to Antique Street."
"Okay!" The man agreed readily, "I'll contact you then."
After saying goodbye and hanging up the phone, Jiahao then told Lin Haitao about the matter.
After having a hearty breakfast with Wen Ting, Jiahao rushed to the hotel as promised and contacted the man on the phone.
It turned out that the man had already arrived and had reserved a luxurious box to wait for his "grand arrival."
A few minutes later, Jiahao saw the man, whose name was Li Shengdong.
Li Dongsheng looks like he is in his forties, wearing a crisp white shirt and holding a dark yellow elegant briefcase under his waist. At first glance, he can tell that he is the kind of high-ranking official who has a successful career.
However, Jiahao doesn't care about the other party's true identity at all, he only cares about how much money the other party can pay.
"Brother Yao, this is Master Gu, the leading figure in Jiangzhou Feng Shui!" Li Shengdong pointed to a middle-aged man next to him and introduced.
The man was of medium build, wearing an antique Tang suit, with gray hair and wrinkles on his temples, but his eyes were piercing.
"Brother Yao, nice to meet you." Master Gu said politely.
"Hello." Jiahao also shook hands with him politely and said hello. He knew very well that the Feng Shui master brought by the other party was to appraise him.
Later, Li Shengdong asked He Qing to sit down, and as soon as he sat down, he said straight to the point: "Brother Yao, can you take out that bronze mirror and show it to us first?"
"No problem." Jiahao nodded and agreed without thinking. Then he took out the "Four Divine Beasts Bagua Mirror" from his bag and placed it on the table for Li Shengdong and the others to watch.
"ah!"
As soon as the things were laid out, Master Gu's eyes lit up, as if he had discovered some great treasure.
"Brother Yao, can you take a look?" Master Gu requested.
Jiahao readily agreed: "Of course. Master Gu, please take a look at it as you like."
"Thank you." Master Gu said with a smile, "It's a good thing. It is indeed a very old magic weapon."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands to carefully pick up the bronze mirror, and examined it carefully.
By observing words and colors, Jiahao could naturally tell that the thing was very familiar to the ancient master, otherwise his first reaction would not have been so big.
Seeing that Master Gu liked the Bagua Mirror, Jiahao was secretly delighted. He was now waiting to negotiate the price with Li Shengdong and the others.
Jiahao also wanted to get it. Li Shengdong came prepared. The price offered by a potential big buyer like him should not disappoint.
After looking at it for a while, Master Gu nodded repeatedly and said, "This Bagua Mirror is really good. Brother Yao, where did you find this treasure? It must not have been easy, right?"
Jiahao smiled slightly and said: "It belongs to a friend of mine and he gave it to me. Master Gu, you are a master of Feng Shui. How are the things? I still need your help."
"I can't tell you about the palms and eyes." Master Gu said modestly, "Master Jiang has already seen it, so what problems will there be? Not bad!"
After saying that, he gently put the mirror back into its original position, turned his head and made eye contact with Li Shengdong sitting beside him.
Li Shengdong nodded as if understanding, then looked back at Jiahao and said with a smile: "Brother Yao, since Master Gu also said that the things are fine, let's talk about the price. I wonder if you have thought about it? I
I sincerely want to buy this magical weapon."
Jiahao nodded solemnly and said: "Of course I have thought about it. Boss Li, I am also very sincere in talking to you. You are a friend introduced by Uncle Jiang, I can rest assured."
"Haha, that's good." Li Shengdong said with a smile, "I can see that you are also a cheerful person. I like to associate with this kind of people. Brother Yao, you should have thought about it. Why don't you give me a price?
Well, as long as the price is right, then we will make a deal."
But Jiahao said politely: "Boss Li, you are the guests, so you should talk to yourself first. I think the same as you. As long as the price is within my acceptable range, then it will be fine!"
Of course he won't make a price first. After all, he doesn't understand the market of magic weapons. If he says it's low, he'll suffer a loss. If he says it's high, it may make the other party feel uncomfortable. So it's difficult to get a very suitable price from the beginning. But wait for the other party
After calling out the price, he can think about it carefully and then set a psychological price.
"Brother Yao, you are too polite." Li Shengdong shook his head and said, "I wonder if Master Long has set a price for this magic weapon. That's what I thought about it. It's really good and just what I need."
After a pause, he continued: "Brother Yao, how about 600,000 yuan? The magic weapon has spiritual energy, and it is really tacky to measure its value by price! So the price of this thing is higher and lower.
It doesn’t matter at all, the key is that both parties must be sincere and the cooperation must be pleasant.”
"Boss Li, you are absolutely right!" Jiahao agreed, "This magic weapon has gone through hundreds of years of history and has always been a 'treasure of the house'. It was once used by a master and is very spiritual.
It’s a magic weapon! I know a little more about it than you do, and to tell you the truth, this ‘Four Divine Beasts Bagua Mirror’ was once used by a large family. That family had been rich for generations, and there were still people in the family who were high-ranking officials. It is said that this
Things can enhance the owner's wealth and official fortune. With it, promotion and wealth will not be a problem..."
He said a lot in one breath, and he was not entirely deceiving people, because he really understood the background of the bronze mirror. It was a magic weapon of a master, and later fell into the family of an official.
It is a true reflection of history.
It's just that Jiahao had "ulterior motives". He deliberately said that to Li Shengdong to suit his liking. The other party looked like an official. If he said that something would help his promotion, it would undoubtedly catch his appetite.
"Oh, really?" Li Shengdong narrowed his eyes and said, "So this magical weapon has a great background! It sounds pretty good!"
Then he and Master Gu looked at each other, both of them deep in thought.
Seeing this situation, Jiahao knew that his words had a good effect, which made Li Shengdong feel itchy.
In fact, when Li Shengdong offered a price of 600,000, Jiahao couldn't help but feel excited. This price was fully twice as high as Uncle Jiang's initial estimate.
This is obviously a very high price, which shows that Li Shengdong is indeed very sincere and can afford to spend a lot of money.
Despite this, Jiahao remained calm on the surface, as if he was not moved by the price at all.
"Brother Yao, what do you think about my offer of 600,000?" Li Shengdong turned around and asked.
Jiahao pursed his lips and replied seriously: "The key depends on your sincerity. Boss Li, you should think about it first. Think of a real price before telling me, so that you will not lose your sincerity. After all,
I don’t want to bargain with you, I’m afraid this is not appropriate in front of the magic weapon.”
The meaning of his words couldn't be more obvious. He was not satisfied with the 600,000 yuan and thought the price was unrealistic.
"Yes!" Li Shengdong nodded vigorously and said, "Okay then. Brother Yao, please sit down. Master Gu and I have something to discuss. Excuse me."
"Please." Jiahao responded, and then he watched Li Shengdong and Master Gu get up and leave. Naturally, they walked aside to discuss the price of the Bagua Mirror.
"Master Gu, how about it?"
Over here, Li Shengdong asked in a low voice.
Master Gu replied: "The 'Four Divine Beasts Bagua Mirror' is well-deserved! I have never seen a Bagua Mirror in such good condition! Secretary Li, that is indeed a good treasure! There is something wrong with your villa and it needs to be reset.
For decoration, it is necessary to use a magic weapon to control the house, and the Bagua mirror is a good Feng Shui magic weapon, so it would be perfect to invite it down!"
"Is it really that good?!" Li Shengdong asked breathlessly, and he could only see excitement on his face at this moment.
"I think it's almost the same." Master Gu replied solemnly, "That little brother Yao is young but has a good eye. It's not easy for him to find that thing!"
"How much is appropriate?" Li Shengdong asked immediately.
Master Gu said: "Based on my understanding of the magic weapon market, Bagua mirrors of a certain age are often worth a lot of money, not to mention those with such exquisite shapes! I have participated in a magic weapon auction held in a private club before.
, the final transaction price of a bronze mirror, a magical artifact, was more than 1.1 million! Secretary Li, the market for magical artifacts is also very popular now, and a magical artifact may be sold for a sky-high price!"
"Oh, I know!" Li Shengdong said suddenly.
The two of them whispered for a while, then turned around and walked back to Jiahao.
At this moment, Li Shengdong seemed confident. He must have made up his mind and was confident to finalize the deal with Jiahao as soon as possible.
With the wind on his face, Jiahao knew that the other party had thought about it well and was full of confidence.
What Jiahao wants is this result, and he naturally hopes to conclude the deal as soon as possible. Potential big buyers like Li Shengdong are not easy to come across.
"Brother Jiahao, please sit down." Li Shengdong said with a smile, "Let's sit down and talk."
"Yeah." Jiahao nodded, and then sat down calmly.
"Brother Yao," Li Shengdong went straight to the topic later and said solemnly, "I really like that mirror of yours. The price you just offered was actually only half price. Haha, I'm sorry, I haven't said that yet.
Finished."
He explained it tactfully, trying to find an excuse for himself to show his "sincerity."
Hearing this, Jiahao was secretly shocked and thought: "Six hundred thousand is just half the price?! So..."
Obviously, this calculation equals 1.2 million!
Li Shengdong bids 1.2 million!
Jiahao's mood suddenly became excited. One million and two hundred thousand is definitely a very high price!
For a bronze mirror that was originally obtained for free, it can be said to be a sky-high price!
"Boss Li, it's okay." Jiahao immediately composed himself, but said calmly on the surface, "I knew you were sincere as soon as I saw you, and I am very happy to cooperate with you."
"Thank you." Li Shengdong said happily, "Brother Yao, do you think the price is suitable?"
"How much did you say?" Jiahao asked, "Is it 1.2 million?"
Li Shengdong nodded quickly and responded: "Yes, that's the price. Brother Yao, what do you think? If you have no objection, we can make a deal right away."
Jiahao pondered for a moment, and then said with a straight face: "Boss Li, can you let me think about it first?"
"Of course!" Li Shengdong agreed, "You should think about it carefully first. I hope you agree, because I really don't want to negotiate the price anymore. Requesting a magic weapon requires a lot of sincerity. If you have to worry about the price,
It would be meaningless if you go but can't decide."
He made a pun. It seemed that the price was his limit and he couldn't increase it any more.
In fact, Jiahao is very satisfied with the price. What else does he have to worry about? It's just that he doesn't want to agree to the other party just like that. Isn't it human nature to think about it? It doesn't appear that he is begging others.
Others are begging him.
"Boss Li, I know." Jiahao nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll think about it and give you an accurate answer soon. Sorry, excuse me, I'll give you a call."
"It doesn't matter, just do as you please." Li Shengdong said politely.
Then Jiahao stood up and walked aside, took out his mobile phone and dialed a person's number. Of course, that person was none other than the owner of the bronze mirror - Lin Haitao.
At this moment, Jiahao couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, because Lin Haitao was about to get a huge sum of more than one million yuan. Although his family might not care much about this money,
After all, this is your own intention.
I quickly got through to Lin Haitao's phone number. After I answered the call, I heard Lin Haitao's questioning voice from the other end: "Brother Yao, are the talks settled?"
Chapter completed!
