Not only Heiji Hattori, but also Mitsuyuki didn't quite understand what Kazuha wanted to do.
Without explaining, He Ye smiled and said, "Boss, you don't need to calculate the price, it's fine if it's cheaper."
Genda Takatoku, who was thinking about what to eat for dinner, didn't listen much. He nodded subconsciously and said, "Okay, thank you so much."
"You're welcome."
As she spoke, Kazuha pointed to the emerald ring in the display case and said, "Boss, you can just give me this classic-style emerald ring."
"Uh-huh?"
Just as he was about to nod, Genda Ryūtoku suddenly sensed something was wrong. Remembering what he had just heard, his expression instantly changed.
"Wh...what?!"
"Is it alright, boss?" Kazuha asked with a natural smile.
"Um... excuse me, what did you just say?" Genda Ryūtoku swallowed hard, wondering if he had misheard.
Kazuha reached out and tapped the glass above the emerald ring, then repeated what she had just said.
"I said, boss, you don't need to help us get a discount, just give me this emerald ring."
“A green… an emerald ring?” Genda Ryūtoku slowly lowered his head and glanced at the emerald ring displayed in the counter.
And the sign below the emerald that reads two million yen.
After staring at him for two seconds, Genda Takatoku suddenly raised his head, waved his hand and shook his head, and refused without much consideration.
"This...this really won't work!"
The emerald ring is priced at two million. Leaving aside the profit, his initial investment in the ring was over a million.
The five items they selected today cost less than 100,000 yuan, less than one-twentieth of the price of the emerald ring.
Buy something for less than 100,000 and get a 2 million emerald ring as a gift?
Now you're asking for free gifts instead of haggling?
Moreover, the free gift is worth twenty times more than what you buy!
If it were the other way around, that would be fine; if he bought an emerald ring, he could give these five items as a free gift.
Not only that, he can also give you a lucky cat-shaped keychain.
He would never agree to a gift of a two-million-dollar emerald ring if he were to buy something worth less than 100,000. He must be out of his mind.
This girl is even more ruthless than that boy!
Standing to the side, Hattori Heiji glanced at Kazuha in surprise. He was also somewhat astonished by her actions; giving her an emerald ring was quite something.
He gave Kazuha a thumbs up and whispered to her, "As expected of you."
Upon hearing this, Heiji rolled his eyes at Hattori Heiji and gently patted his arm, signaling him not to say anything out of line.
"This..." Guangyou was speechless for a moment, and after a long while he muttered, "Are you sure this is cheering someone on, or is it a robbery?"
The main body costs less than 100,000, but the freebies cost 2 million...
That's amazing!
In all his years, this was the first time he'd ever seen someone haggle like this...
In comparison, Heiji Hattori's bargaining methods seem much more normal.
At least Genda Takatoku can still make a profit, though not much, but there is something to it.
But Kazuha... Genda Takatoku not only failed to make money, but also lost more than a million yen.
He, Guangyou, claims that Kazuha is the best negotiator.
Even Ai was stunned for a moment. After regaining her senses, she remembered the purpose of Kazuha and the others' visit and muttered a complaint under her breath.
"Is this really an attempt to pump up air, or a robbery?"
“Robbery right in front of you, is that even possible…” Guangyou complained again.
"And they 'robbed' it in broad daylight," Ai added, glancing at Kazuha.
"As expected of someone from Osaka..." they both said almost simultaneously.
I'd only ever heard that people in Osaka love to haggle, but today I finally got to experience it for myself.
Seeing that the two showed no sign of giving up, Genda Takatoku refused again, "This really won't work..."
"Boss/Uncle, please consider it!" Hattori Heiji and Kazuha said in unison, "We're very sincere!"
"Is this a matter of sincerity or not..." Guangyou's lips twitched slightly. He had a lot of complaints he wanted to make, but he didn't know where to start.
In the eyes of businessmen, sincerity is measured by money. As long as the money is there, they are considered sincere, and vice versa.
Where would you tell a merchant you're sincere and then ask if you could give them the more expensive item as a free gift?
It's only because Genda Takatoku has a good temper. If it were Kōsuke selling the goods, he would be being very polite by not calling the police in this situation.
If they get even more aggressive, it's not impossible for them to just start hitting each other. If they don't manage to knock the shit out, then they'll consider it a clean slate.
"No, that won't do!" Genda Ryūtoku refused again without even thinking, his attitude very firm.
Two million is no small sum. The average annual salary for an office worker in Japan is around four million. This ring is equivalent to half a year's salary for those office workers.
How could I possibly give it away?
This ring is not only one of the items, but also one of the store's reserve funds.
If the antique shop were to experience a cash flow crisis due to poor management, he could then find someone to buy the ring.
Then use that money to solve the store's financial problems.
Although doing this would definitely result in a significant loss compared to selling it normally, in that situation, sacrificing the potential profit from the ring in order to ensure the shop's continued survival was the right choice.
Anyway, this ring can be sold, but it absolutely cannot be given away.
Unless he's so rich that he doesn't consider two million a lot of money.
"Please, boss/uncle!" the two said in unison again.
