Chapter 74 Inexhaustible Wool
Yan Ziqing looked helpless.
He felt that ever since he met Zhu Suisui, he had softened his heart once and was then seduced by Zhou Bapi.
In fact, he didn't have to help when he went to Lu's house. As long as he had some bad intentions and refused to acknowledge the value of the seal in front of everyone, he could have found a way to buy the seal later. The price would definitely not be that high, and he could get it for just a few hundred dollars.
It was just that Yan Ziqing was meddling in other people's business and brought this up.
From then on, things got out of control.
After the wine glass, he had clearly decided not to buy anything from Zhu Suisui, but he never expected that he would directly take out this ancient book.
The temptation is too great.
Yan Ziqing was a little overwhelmed.
Of course, he had other options. If he didn't tell Zhu Suisui about this and told her how much the items were sold for, she probably wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
If we just do this, we probably won't be able to cooperate with each other many times in the future.
Yan Ziqing really admired Zhu Suisui, otherwise he would not have offered to take her with him to plow the land.
One is that he wants to test Zhu Suisui's ability again, and the other is that he wants to cooperate with more people.
Since they were going to fight side by side for a long time in the future and perhaps become good friends, Yan Ziqing said it as a matter of course, which was also considered to be honest.
Zhu Suisui naturally understood this truth.
She felt that meeting Yan Ziqing was her luck in this line of work.
She could feel that the other party had no ill intentions towards her, so she didn't mind returning the favor.
Zhu Suisui said, "You can name the price for this ancient book. To be honest, I only paid thirty-five dollars for this rare book. If it hadn't been restored by you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sell it for a high price. So I won't ask for too much. Just let me break even."
Although she is short of money now, some relationships cannot be measured by money.
It was obvious that Yan Ziqing liked this ancient book very much. Zhu Suisui had already made a lot of money from him. In fact, she also knew that the price was higher than the market price.
You can't keep fleecing the same sheep until all its wool is gone. Where will she go to fleece the sheep next time?
Only by fattening the little sheep and making its hair grow luxuriantly can you have an inexhaustible supply of wool.
If he builds a good relationship with the little fat sheep, he can find more little sheep to get to know, and have them line up for him to fleece.
When Zhu Suisui thought about that scene, he found it very funny.
Yan Ziqing was a little surprised to hear her say this. If she really wanted to ask him for a high price for this ancient book, two or three thousand would be fine.
It can definitely be sold for a higher price than a seal.
Now Zhu Suisui just let him say whatever he wanted whenever he opened his mouth, as if he trusted him enough.
Yan Ziqing couldn't make a random offer.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Now that you've said that, I can't let you suffer a big loss. The price of this ancient book is definitely not as much as the seal I opened for you. It still needs to be repaired. Although I am 80% sure that I can repair it, it will take a certain amount of time and energy to do this. I thought about it and I can give you a price of 500 for this ancient book. If you sell it at a higher price in the future, I will give you a commission of 1%. What do you think?"
Five hundred is certainly not a lot.
Even compared to other previous ones, it’s a steal.
However, Zhu Suisui thought about it and realized that if Yan Ziqing didn't accept it, he would not be able to sell it at all. Even if he sold it, no one would be willing to pay 500 for it.
As long as the Yan family refuses to repair it, she will be treated as if this ancient book is a waste.
Later, when the ancient book was restored, Yan Ziqing sold it for a high price. That was the Yan family's skill and had little to do with himself. After all, restoring ancient books was their unique skill, a craft passed down from their ancestors, so naturally they deserved it.
Now he is willing to give me 500 and also willing to give her a 1% commission, which is actually a friendship price.
After all, no matter how much money it was sold for in the future, it would have nothing to do with her, but Yan Ziqing had agreed to it, a rare condition in the antique world, so she had no reason to be dissatisfied.
Zhu Suisui was filled with emotion.
My unique feature is my ghost eyes, but compared with other people's legitimate inheritance, I don't dare to tell others about it, and I lack confidence.
If she also has some unique skills, the others who make money from it will also be convinced.
It's just a pity.
I don't have such an opportunity.
It seems that in the antique business, if you want to make money, you still have to learn more. It's not enough to have supernatural powers.
Zhu Suisui smiled and said, "Your offer is so good, there is no reason for me not to accept it."
This is done.
Zhu Suisui received an extra 500 yuan, and there might be an unexpected income in the future. She counted the money she had on hand, and after deducting the money Lu Lanxu had originally given her, she still had nearly 3,000 yuan from reselling antiques.
I originally wanted to buy a house so that I could bring my parents over.
But now think about it, if she just finds a house to buy casually, she will have no spare money left, and it may not be a house she likes. If it really doesn't work out, she can only rent a house.
She really likes the house that Old Man Shou owns.
It's like someone suddenly raises the price, and you can't make that much money in a short period of time.
Even if I really made money, a house would bring me back to the days before liberation.
Three thousand may sound like a lot, but in the antique circle, it is really not worth mentioning. She doesn't even have the qualifications to play with the slightly more powerful ones.
It seems more important to take the money and make money.
Think so.
Zhu Suisui thought that it would be better to rent a house and ask the old man if he was willing to rent out a few rooms in the house.
If he is willing, she can move in first. When she has money later, she can negotiate a price and buy the house from him. This way, she can also prevent old man Shou from selling the house to other people.
Anyway, there are always more solutions than problems.
After living a new life, Zhu Suisui only felt that she was full of energy. Making money made her happy, and antiques made her understand a world that she didn't know in her previous life, which was full of mystery and temptation.
Yan Ziqing saw Zhu Suisui out and spoke as he walked, as if he had thought of something.
"Going to the countryside to dig the land may have to be postponed for a few days. I want to repair this ancient book first."
It was not necessary to go, and it was normal to postpone it. After all, restoring ancient books was definitely more important now.
Zhu Suisui thought about it and said, "How about this? I'll go there first, and we'll find a place to meet up. I can just stay at my parents' home for a few days."
Hearing this.
Yan Ziqing nodded, and thinking of Lu Lanxu, he replied: "Anyway, if you go back to your parents' home, your husband can accompany you, and it will be safe."
Hearing the name Lu Lanxu.
Zhu Suisui's expression dimmed a little.
Originally, she wanted to be with Yan Ziqing, but now it seems that she has to go back alone. As for Lu Lanxu accompanying her, it is simply impossible.
Lu Lanxu was busy and didn't want to do it either.
But she naturally wouldn't say these words to others.
