Chapter 160: Bargaining with the Main Artery
Li Hongqiu shook her head and left, returning to the store to gossip with the staff, inevitably mocking Zeng Xiangdong and Zeng Wenjie, the couple of fools.
After knowing that Zeng Xiangdong was going to open a gold shop here, the surrounding merchants all took a gloating attitude.
There is a Fengxiang Jewelry building opposite and a Huaguo Gold building next to it. If you open a gold shop between the two, won’t you be crushed to the ground?
Humans are interesting creatures.
One afternoon, several merchants came and asked Zeng Xiangdong about his well-being, but in fact, they came with the intention of laughing at him.
Zeng Xiangdong couldn't help but feel resentful. After all, he had opened a gold mine that produced a lot of goods. He had so much money in his hands, but he was actually being ridiculed like this.
"I'm going to take care of other things. You keep an eye on the decoration first. When Boss Zhuang comes in a few days, let him take charge." Zeng Wenjie said.
"That's just right. I'll go back and collect more goods." Zeng Xiangdong said with a smile.
The gold mines in the Baishui Town area are still producing gold, but the amount of output is decreasing.
If Zeng Wenjie remembered correctly, there should be about a year's production period left, and these supplies are enough to support the needs of the gold shop.
Zeng Wenjie nodded and said, "You have to bring the gold up in person when the time comes. I can't trust others to do this."
Zeng Xiangdong said: "Of course, how can we let outsiders transport so much gold?"
Zeng Wenjie saw that he was still wearing the string bag, so he reached over and took it out, saying, "Give me some cash first, I'm going to buy a camera."
Zeng Xiangdong didn't ask him why he wanted to buy a camera. Anyway, he was rich now, so it didn't matter if he spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy a higher-end camera.
Zeng Xiangdong, who has money in his pocket, can't help but feel a little inflated in his self-confidence.
But Zeng Wenjie didn't say much to him. He was in his forties and didn't need a son like him to say much.
Zeng Wenjie just picked up a stack of them and put them in the inner pocket of his coat, then went straight to the digital city.
When he arrived at the store selling Nikon, Zeng Wenjie met three acquaintances, Xue Xiangyao, Zhao Qiang, and Luo Xiaoyu.
Xue Xiangyao was looking at cameras, wondering which one to buy.
"Huh? Zeng Wenjie!" Xue Xiangyao's eyes lit up when he saw him and he waved and greeted him.
"Ah, it's true that we meet each other everywhere." Zeng Wenjie imitated Chen Jinnan and bowed, smiling.
When Zhao Qiang saw Zeng Wenjie, the corners of his mouth twitched, and for no reason he recalled the last time he hugged the fairy girl.
"Old squad leader and sister-in-law, nice to see you again!" Zeng Wenjie also greeted Zhao Qiang and Luo Xiaoyu.
Xue Xiangyao felt that Xiao Zeng was quite polite and sweet-talker offline, but when he started to use the keyboard, he seemed to be a completely different person?
She couldn't help but ask, "Do you know each other?"
Zhao Qiang said, "We were classmates in high school. I was his class monitor. I ran into him last time when Xiaoyu and I were at the snack street."
Zeng Wenjie asked, "You want to buy a camera?"
Xue Xiangyao said, "I joined the photography club, so I want to buy a camera. What about you?"
Zeng Wenjie said: "I want to be Edison Chen."
“???”
The three of them were puzzled and looked confused.
"Wenjie, I didn't expect that you knew Xiang Yao! She is the campus belle of our university. How did you know her?" Zhao Qiang asked curiously, and he envied Zeng Wenjie more and more in his heart.
But he still insisted on emphasizing the word "important" to highlight the excellence of first-tier students over second-tier students.
Luo Xiaoyu was also a little curious, because Xue Xiangyao was notoriously arrogant. She would reject her suitors without even saying a word, and could persuade people to retreat with just her eyes.
How could Xue Xiangyao, who was so arrogant, know Zeng Wenjie, a second-tier university student? They seemed to have a pretty good relationship.
Zeng Wenjie said calmly: "I run a snack shop, and she came to buy snacks, and that's how we got to know each other."
When Xue Xiangyao heard this, he couldn't help but give him a grateful look. He felt a little embarrassed that he had revealed the fact that he had been in a car accident.
"Snack shop?" Zhao Qiang was stunned.
Luo Xiaoyu was a little surprised and said, "Are you the owner of Snack Food? Is that your store?"
Zeng Wenjie nodded and said, "That's me."
Zhao Qiang stared and said, "There's a rumor going around our school that the snack shop opened not long ago and its daily revenue has already exceeded ten thousand yuan. Is that true?"
Zeng Wenjie laughed and said, "No, no, that's all a rumor! My snack shop is barely enough to make a living, barely keeping itself afloat."
Zhao Qiang and Luo Xiaoyu felt a sense of relief, because they both thought it was too outrageous to start a business in the freshman year, and it was even more outrageous that the entrepreneurial results were so amazing!
But Xue Xiangyao looked at Zeng Wenjie meaningfully. She certainly knew that snacks were very popular.
Because Shi Hao felt somewhat hatred towards Zeng Wenjie, he paid special attention to him and would send messages to Xue Xiangyao to complain about him whenever he had the chance.
"Classmates, do you want to buy a camera?" The owner of the Nikon store came up with a smile and was very polite, but his meaning was that if you didn't want to buy, you could get out.
Xue Xiangyao said to Zeng Wenjie, "Do you know anything about photography? Could you give me a reference?"
Zeng Wenjie said, "It seems you are also a beginner, so I suggest you buy an entry-level model. The D40 is a very good choice."
The boss immediately agreed, "Wow, this student has good taste. This is the best-selling model in our store, and it's only 8,000 yuan!"
Zeng Wenjie was happy. He didn't expect that his boss would really give him the opportunity to get red envelopes from Pinduoduo. He immediately took out his 40-meter-long sword and sharpened it.
Xue Xiangyao stretched out her hand and was about to take out the money, but Zeng Wenjie stopped her and slashed at the boss's aorta with a knife.
"Four thousand seven."
Zeng Wenjie had a blank expression on his face, like an emotionless killer.
Zhao Qiang and Luo Xiaoyu were both shocked, and even Xue Xiangyao widened his eyes. This was the first time they saw someone bargaining like this!
The prices of digital products in this era are not so transparent, and these unscrupulous merchants are extremely cruel in overcharging customers. This phenomenon has gradually decreased until online shopping has developed.
The boss said with a puzzled look, "Student, how can you bargain like that? This is a Nikon, a famous Japanese brand. Even 8,000 is a very cheap price for me!"
Zeng Wenjie said coldly, "Four thousand seven, and we want two. If you don't sell it to us, we'll buy Sony, which is also a famous Japanese brand."
When the boss heard this, he was speechless. He didn't expect that this young man Zeng Wenjie was so knowledgeable.
The entry-level Nikon 40D SLR is only sold as a kit in China. The price of the standalone unit is 4,000 yuan, and the kit is 4,700 yuan.
"Okay, okay, I'll sell it to you for 4,700 yuan each." The boss said depressedly.
Xue Xiangyao and the other two were stunned, and even looked at Zeng Wenjie with a little admiration in their eyes.
Young people are thin-skinned and not good at bargaining. Sometimes they even feel uncomfortable and embarrassed when their companions bargain.
But Zeng Wenjie's wielding of the machete was somewhat domineering, and he actually chopped it down.
So, Zeng Wenjie and Xue Xiangyao each paid for a Nikon 40D SLR camera from the store for 4,700 yuan.
"Damn it! The snack shop's profit for the day is gone just like that..."
A certain pretentious demon spread his hands and sighed repeatedly.
