Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord
Chapter 8
"Shopkeeper, I heard that you have a piece of Wuzhuang fine cloth that you want to sell?" Liu Xianglian raised her hand and knocked on the counter, asking.
Hearing the words "Wuzhuang fine cloth", Xue Pan jumped up, "Yes, yes!" He stared at Liu Xianglian with bright eyes, "Is this customer going to buy it?"
This reaction startled Liu Xianglian.He didn't know that this person was the head of the Xue family, but he didn't think that the other party would be the shopkeeper.Even if the Xue family is a big family in Jinling, it is impossible to invite such a young shopkeeper with a handsome appearance and a beautiful body.
"Is this one you haven't consulted yet?" He hesitated for a moment, then asked with cupped hands.
Xue Pan was about to be bewildered by this incident, so even if he had the same face control as him, he didn't notice Liu Xianglian's outstanding appearance at the moment.
——Actually, even if it is Yan Kong, Xue Pan has no intention of bullying men and women in this regard.There were two people in the red building who were forced by him. Xiangling was a maid with an unfree status, and if she bought it in this era, it belonged to him.The other Liu Xianglian, it was also because Liu Xianglian played some romantic characters on the stage when the two first met, and Xue Pan thought she was "a fellow", so they got entangled and were finally beaten up severely.
So when he heard Liu Xianglian's question, he immediately said, "I am the owner of this shop, you can come to me for anything you need. Is this customer interested in buying that Wuzhuang fine cloth?"
"It's not me," Liu Xianglian stepped aside, "It's my friend."
Xue Pan immediately turned to look at Bo Yang, his face was full of eager anticipation, and he didn't look like that arrogant and domineering overlord anymore.
Although Bo Yang took Mu Li with him and seemed to hide his head and show his tail as if there was something shady about it, Xue Pan didn't care about it and just pretended he didn't see it.The most important thing now is to solve his own business, what else has it to do with him?
Bo Yang coughed and asked under his throat, "How much fabric do you have here?"
"Five hundred horses." Xue Pan said hastily, "I don't know how many the guests plan to buy?"
Five hundred horses?Bo Yang frowned slightly, this was more than what Liu Xianglian said.In this way, the method he had expected before was somewhat inappropriate.
Bo Yang originally wanted to negotiate the price with the other party, try to keep the price down as much as possible first, and then mention the matter of installment payment. ——He only had 50 taels of silver on hand, and he couldn’t eat so much goods at all, so he paid the deposit first at the beginning, and then paid the rest of the abacus after his cloth was sold.
In fact, this is also a common way of cooperation. After all, even a big business cannot keep a large amount of money in its hands for turnover. Anyway, as long as the money can be paid back within the agreed date.
But Bo Yang's problem is that he doesn't have a serious reputation, and he has no one to guarantee him. In this way, the possibility that the other party will agree is very low.This is also the reason why he hopes that all the fabrics will be concentrated in one person's hands, so that it is easier to negotiate conditions.
But now, five hundred pieces of cloth exceeded his expectations. If he couldn't win all of them, it would definitely be detrimental to the subsequent price reduction and negotiation conditions.But she simply can't eat that much at the moment, even if she wants to, she is powerless.
Besides, looking at Xue Pan's appearance, I'm afraid this batch of goods is really tricky.But this shouldn't be the case for the Xue family, there is only one possibility, they have to wait for the money to turn around.If this is the case, I am afraid that my installment plan will be more difficult to succeed.
With these thoughts in his mind, Bo Yang felt very embarrassed for a moment.
Cloth, he wanted it; money, he couldn't get it.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that Xue Pan had been staring at him.Even though he knew that the other party couldn't see his face, Bo Yang's heart skipped a beat, afraid that he would notice something was wrong, so he hurriedly said, "Go and see the goods first."
After saying that, he regretted it.
Wouldn't it be bad if the other party misunderstood that he could eat all the goods, but couldn't pay for it?
But he thought about it again, no matter where he is, it is inevitable to shop around when doing business, and he is definitely not the only one who only sees but does not buy.Thinking of this, he calmed down again.
That batch of goods is not in the store, but in the warehouse outside the city.Xue Pan probably hoped to finally resolve the matter, so he was so excited that he decided to take them there himself.
When going out, Bo Yang always wanted to find an opportunity to give Xuan'er a reminder, so that he would not wait here in vain.As a result, Xue Pan followed him all the time, never getting the chance.If he didn't have a certain understanding of Xue Pan, Bo Yang would have thought he did it on purpose.
Looking at the cloth outside the city, the stains on it were lighter than Bo Yang thought, and if they were stained, they should be able to cover them all.Even if it can't be covered, he can try to change it into a pattern.Now there is only one problem left, he can't afford it.
If this is in modern times, Bo Yang has a hundred ways to get this money.However, now in this strange world with no relatives and no relatives, he has to be careful in his actions, even he finds it difficult.
In the end, Bo Yang decided to do his best. Although he knew that the chances were slim, he couldn't give up without giving it a try, right?
"I don't know how Xue Dong's family plans to sell this batch of goods?" After thinking about it, Bo Yang chose a more conservative question.
Xue Pan immediately said, "Of course I want to do a one-shot deal, but I don't know if Mr. Bai is interested. If we can get everything all at once, the price can be negotiated."
"To tell you the truth, I wanted to buy all these cloths in my heart, but it's a small business, and I can't turn around. But if Xue Dong's family can agree to pay in installments, I have to bite my teeth and want them all." Bo Yang said.
He didn't expect much when he said that.After all, I don't have anything to mortgage, and I can't find a guarantor, so normal people would be more cautious.But Xue Pan was overjoyed, "If Mr. Bai really wants to buy it, it's not impossible to discuss it."
Bo Yang was taken aback for a moment, he deserved to be so forthright, doing his best and obeying the destiny immediately became a must, but he was restrained.
He thought for a while, and pulled Liu Xianglian aside.Liu Xianglian observed the words and expressions, and asked, "Brother Bai, what is the embarrassment?"
"Oh, don't be afraid of brother Liu's jokes. I don't have that much cash on me. Originally, you said two hundred horses. I wanted to pay [-]% of the money first, take the cloth away, and settle the payment after it is sold. However, this amount is too much." Big, even if it's [-]% of the price, I can't afford it for the time being." Bo Yang knew that Liu Xianglian was a chivalrous character, the most loyal, and would not ridicule himself for being overconfident, so he told the truth.
Liu Xianglian frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Brother Bai, are you sure you can sell all these fabrics? How long will it take?"
It should be noted that if it was so easy to sell, Xue Pan would not have to be so anxious.Their family specializes in this business, and there is nothing they can do, so he doesn't believe what Bo Yang said.
Bo Yang said, "Within three months."
Liu Xianglian thought for a while, then leaned into his ear and whispered, "Actually, in my opinion, this Young Master Xue is probably in trouble. Otherwise, a high family like the Xue family, why use him for hundreds of pieces of cloth?" Come out in person? He is the one who is anxious about this matter, let's wait and see. In the past few days, I will deal with you for you, brother, to find out about him and see if there are other opportunities."
After hearing what he said, Bo Yang also understood.Xue Pan was supposed to go to the capital, but now he stayed in Jinling.And for the first time, he personally sat in the store, which was rare in the first place, so it might be a very big trouble.
Speaking of which, I still owe the other party a favor, no matter whether the business can be done or not, if there is something that can help, Bo Yang will not stand still.
Seeing him nodding, Liu Xianglian went back and said to Xue Pan, "Dong Xue, we brothers and sisters have small business, so we have to be cautious. Please allow me to discuss this matter. Whether you buy it or not, we will buy it within a couple of days. Just give the message."
Xue Pan didn't know what to think of, and kept staring at Liu Xianglian's face.Seeing this scene from the side, Bo Yang couldn't help being slightly taken aback.
By the way, Xue Pan also had a crush on Liu Xianglian in Dream of the Red Chamber.When he entered the door just now, maybe he didn't pay attention because he had something on his mind. Could it be that he finally came back to his senses now?Thinking about how he had taken a fancy to him not long ago, Bo Yang couldn't help but feel a sense of embarrassment.
Liu Xianglian yelled two more times, Xue Pan suddenly came back to his senses, nodded his head again and again in agreement, and asked where they were staying before sending them away.
Because she often travels outside, Liu Xianglian has a familiar inn here, and has always lived there.He invited Bo Yang to go with him, but Bo Yang thought that if he lived together, he would inevitably visit each other for a few days, and it would be bad if people around Xue Pan saw Xuan'er, so he presumed that the place had already been decided. .
Xuan'er followed Bo Yang during these days, not only gained a lot of knowledge, but also learned a lot of new things, and became more alert than before.He had noticed Bo Yang's anomaly before, and when he found out about Xue's shop at that time, he couldn't help being shocked, and he naturally handled Bo Yang's explanation properly.
Liu Xianglian sent him to the inn, seeing that he was okay here, she didn't persuade him any more, and agreed that she would go to inquire about the Xue family first tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, on the second day, before he left the house, Xue Pan had already found him.As soon as they met, they bowed to him, "So it's Brother Liu, I'm a stupid and rude person, I didn't know each other yesterday, I'm really disrespectful. Today I came to the door to apologize, please don't blame Brother Liu."
It turned out that yesterday he had already inquired about Liu Xianglian's origin, because Liu Xianglian often walked around here, so it was easy to inquire about the news, knowing that he is a descendant of a family that has declined, and in detail, each family used to have some friendship. The descendants don't even know each other.So come to the door to plead guilty.
Liu Xianglian listened to him make up this long series of words, but she really didn't look like the stupid overlord Xue Pan she knew, she couldn't help but secretly surprised, or the rumors were so wrong.However, if he said that he really wanted to make friends with her, Liu Xianglian would never believe it.
Hearing the words "Wuzhuang fine cloth", Xue Pan jumped up, "Yes, yes!" He stared at Liu Xianglian with bright eyes, "Is this customer going to buy it?"
