Xu Lu's decision to raise prices instead of lower them left Dilraba and her fans in the live stream somewhat dumbfounded.
As the saying goes, "Ask the sky, then bargain."
Under normal circumstances, as a buyer, you will eventually have to haggle down the price a little bit when the seller pesters you.
Who knew Xu Lu would do that? If you, the guy who wanted to buy it, said even one more word, the price of the item would increase by 100,000 yuan.
[This is truly eye-opening! Hahaha, who would have thought that buying and selling could be done this way?]
If I were that old man, after being messed with like that by the streamer, I would have already lost my temper and walked away.
[Yeah, it started at four million, then after a couple of sentences it became four million two hundred thousand. Isn't that absurd?]
[Ahem, to be honest, I feel pretty good about it, hahaha, look at that expert Li's face turning black.]
Who told this guy to try and buy someone else's four-million-dollar treasure for ten thousand dollars? Well, he got his comeuppance!
...
Do you think this expert Li will buy it? It's 4.2 million, not 420 yuan.
That's right. For ordinary people, they might never see so much money in their entire lives, just for a small bottle.
Whether or not this person surnamed Li will buy it depends on whether he can make money after buying it.
Experts and professors like them, aren't they all just after money? They'd eat shit for a paycheck...
...
Under the watchful eyes of countless viewers in the live broadcast room, Expert Li's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty.
In the end, he compromised:
"Yes, yes, young man, I'll transfer the money to you right now, four million two hundred thousand. You absolutely can't raise the price any further!"
Then, the viewers in the live stream all took a deep breath, because they were witnessing a huge transaction of 4.2 million.
Dilraba, holding the live-streaming equipment, stared wide-eyed, feeling like she was dreaming.
While it wouldn't be a problem for her to come up with 200,000, it would be a bit difficult for her to come up with 4 million at once, unless she borrows it from Boss Yang.
"My God, Xu Lu just bought a bottle for 40,000 yuan, and then sold it for over four million yuan, wow..."
Dilraba did a mental calculation with her not-so-good math skills and found that the profit from this bottle was a hundred times!
Bang!
Just then, a sound was heard from the side, followed by the sound of porcelain shattering.
Everyone looked in the direction from which the sound came.
They discovered it was the same stall owner who had been watching them the whole time. Now, looking utterly hopeless, the owner knelt down on his stall, knocking over several porcelain cups and bowls.
"No... four million! I'm not reconciled! Four million just like that, I've thrown it all away! Hahahaha!"
Seeing that the stall owner shouted a few words and then let out a strange laugh, Xu Lu and the others quickly moved to another place to conduct the transaction.
Soon, the four million from the old man called Expert Li arrived in Xu Lu's account, and Xu Lu handed the bottle over to him intact.
Cash on delivery, goods delivered, payment and goods settled!
Unexpectedly, after taking the porcelain bottle, the old man didn't leave immediately.
Instead, he looked at the other bag Xu Lu was carrying and asked with a face full of curiosity:
"Young man, what treasures are in that bag of yours? Can I take a look?"
Hearing the old man say that, Dilraba and the fans in the live stream also became curious:
[The bag the streamer is carrying probably contains a small bowl, which he bought for 30,000 yuan this morning.]
Yes, it's just a small bowl. Could that small bowl be a genuine antique? It might be worth millions!
I'm completely confused now. Do you think this streamer even knows anything about antiques? Otherwise, how could he have found such a bargain?
Who knows? We'll know if it's true once the old man takes another look at the small bowl.
If that small bowl can sell for millions, then this streamer must be a real expert.
...
"That little cup isn't really worth millions, is it? I was joking with Xu Lu about it at lunch, could it be..."
Dilraba also thought of this problem at this time.
At the time, Xu Lu said that even if he sold her, he might barely be able to afford to compensate for the small cup, but Reba didn't believe him.
She thought that Xu Lu had picked up the small cup from the roadside to fool her.
But now it seems that the small cup was also an antique that Xu Lu bought from here, and it might actually be worth millions!
Everyone's attention was focused on the other bag in Xu Lu's hand.
Unexpectedly, Xu Lu shook his head and said:
"Can't!"
Expert Li was stunned and asked in bewilderment:
"Young man, why not? As long as it's good stuff, I'll never shortchange you..."
Before Expert Li could finish speaking, Xu Lu interrupted:
"You can't afford this anyway, so don't waste your time!"
hiss!
Upon hearing Xu Lu's words, everyone, including the expert Li and Dilraba present at the scene, as well as the fans watching the live stream, gasped in shock.
"Young man, you're being too arrogant. I've handled hundreds, even thousands, of antiques, some worth millions or even tens of millions. You're saying I can't afford them?"
Expert Li was almost laughing in exasperation, and continued:
"Although I'm not exactly rich, I can still scrape together tens of millions. What kind of treasure do you have? Is it really worth tens of millions?"
Show it to me. If it's genuine, even if it's worth ten or twenty million, I'll buy it on the spot. I would never lie to you!
Reba, who was standing to the side, swallowed hard.
She couldn't understand how a transaction that started as a few tens of thousands of yuan had escalated to the point of involving millions or tens of millions.
