C75 cutting price

"You can't say that." The old housekeeper was a bit speechless, "Can a house be like other things? Other things get broken in a few days, and a good house can last for decades. "

"I don't believe that a good house can last for dozens of years. A house in a village that is able to last for ten years will be destroyed." Chen Mu Mu Mu looked at him with a smile on his face. "Old butler, if we compare the lifespan of this house with ten years, you've already lived here for three years. Can you still call this a new house?"

"Just tell me what price you want." The old housekeeper said that he couldn't win against her, so he decided to not argue with her. He only needed an answer.

"You are a straightforward person. I like a straightforward person like you." The corners of Chen Mu Mu's mouth curled up. Under the old butler's disapproving gaze, she slowly spoke out the price she wanted. "Fifty taels of silver."

"Whap." The old butler widened his eyes. At that moment, he seemed to hear the sound of his chin hitting the ground. "Fifty liang, little girl, are you joking!"

One tael of silver was not a small sum of money. A house with two hundred and fifty taels of silver was being sold for at least fifty taels.

"I'm not joking. This house is only worth fifty silver taels." Chen Mu Mu Mu looked at him, her eyes glinting as she said, "Even if you're a straightforward person, you're still an intelligent person. This house looks quite large, and the amount of manpower and resources used in the construction would probably add up to around two hundred taels of silver." This is, after all, a small mountain village, so how could there be any rich people here? You've also lived here for three years, it's impossible for you to get a higher price than when you were building a house. "

"That can't be as little as fifty taels of silver, right?" The old butler's face turned green, "Forget about the old master's disagreement, even I can't pass this stage."

Chen Mu Mu sneered. From these words, it could be seen that 250 silver was just an empty price. The Liu family's house was not worth that much money, and the old housekeeper could also cut the price.

"What does this pass have to do with me? What I see is a house, what I do is business, business is business, business is business, business is all about love. If Old Liu isn't willing to sell his house, I can't buy it, right?" Chen Mu Mu smiled. "If you are sincere about selling this house, I can give you all the money you need for the fifty taels of silver."

The old butler's face was purple as if he had been angered by her to the point that he almost lost his breath. He glared at her for a long time before blowing his beard and glaring as he said, "Stop talking nonsense. Fifty silver is impossible. At least two hundred silver!"

This time, it was Lu Jinfeng who was stunned.

A price of 250 taels of silver was equivalent to 50 taels of silver in one go. Did he think this money was for the market to buy vegetables? It was cut so easily!

Then she thought about the offer her mother had received at the house, and she felt even more uncomfortable.

Madam Lee was an honest person, she would not play any tricks on him. If she was the one who bought the Liu family's house, she would need two hundred and fifty silver.

As soon as Chen Mu Mu Mu arrived, she immediately lost fifty silver taels. He was clearly treating the Madam Lee as an unworthy person to be slaughtered.

50 taels of silver was enough for them to eat for many years.

"You only spent two hundred silver to build your house. After living here for a few years, you still want to sell me at the original price. Don't even think about it." Chen Mu harrumphed, "It's just fifty taels of silver, I don't have much. Do you want to sell it?"

"Fifty silver taels? Then let me tell you, you don't even have that much." The old butler also straightened his back as he angrily said, "One hundred and eighty silver taels, I can't be any less!"

"Fifty silver." Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu was calm and composed, and he didn't back down in the slightest.

"I think you don't have money. You want to buy a house without money? You really don't know what's good for you." The old housekeeper started to attack her after negotiating the price.

Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu wasn't affected in the slightest as he chuckled, "Old butler, you're already so old, don't you even know how to look at people? If I don't have money, I don't want to buy a house. If I can talk nonsense with you here, I won't be able to support myself when I'm full. "

The old butler choked and hesitated for a moment. Then, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since you really want to buy it, I won't take your middle interest money. One hundred and fifty silver taels, treat it as my friendship."

Lu Jinfeng listened on the side, and was no longer able to speak.

This was the first time he had seen someone buy a house with such a price. Furthermore, the price was several dozen taels of silver. How many years had it been for the poor?

In addition to being dumbstruck, the feeling in his heart was even more unpleasant.

He no longer had any good feelings towards the black-hearted Liu Clan.

This old steward was not a man to be trifled with. He sold the house for the Liu family and wanted to collect the profits. He bid two hundred and fifty taels of silver, which was only one hundred and fifty taels.

A difference of one hundred taels of silver, this old thing must be really unlucky.

However, Chen Mu Mu Mu was still not satisfied. She smiled, "I've already said it before, I'm only willing to pay fifty taels of silver."

"Don't go too far, get what you want!" The old butler was angered to the point that his face turned red. His beard was disheveled from the wind as he said, "I already lost one hundred silver taels, what else do you want? Don't tell me you want my Liu family to sell it to you for a loss?"

"It's your wish to do business. If you feel that you've lost, you won't sell." But if they were willing to bargain with her, it meant that they had not reached their bottom line yet.

"I'll leave it at that. One hundred and fifty silver taels, not a single cent less. If you can take it out, the house will belong to you. If you can't, get the hell out of here." The old butler was infuriated by her.

"Even the houses in the city aren't as expensive as this. It's crazy to want to go to heaven with a house built in the countryside." Chen Mu Mu Mu shrugged, and called out to Lu Jinfeng who was standing by the side in a daze, "Let's go, the Liu Family people are not sincere, let's go back."

The old steward called out from behind him, "This is the only house in the Liu family. This is the only house in the family. You won't have this chance even a hundred years. If you miss it, don't regret it!"

"What's there to regret? I have the money, so I might as well build one myself. It's a brand-new one that no one has ever lived in before." Chen Mu chuckled and pulled Lu Jinfeng away, "Fifty silver taels, this is my bottom line. If you change your mind, you can find me at the west side of the village at Wang Quan's place. I'll give you five days to think about it.

"Get lost!" The old housekeeper did not greet her and instead shouted in anger.

Chen Mu Mu laughed as she pulled Lu Jinfeng away.

After leaving the Liu Family's territory for a while, Lu Jinfeng asked hesitantly, "Chen Mu Mu, that house in the Liu Family, is it really only worth fifty silver taels?"

That was simply bullshit!

Selling it to the Madam Lee would cost two hundred and fifty silver!

The difference of two hundred silver taels was simply heaven defying!

"How can this be? We can sell it for fifty silver taels, unless the Liu Clan is really short on money." Chen Mu Mu shrugged his shoulders, "I was talking nonsense with that old fellow. The Liu family's house is spacious and bright, and takes up a lot of space. They must have spent a lot of effort during the construction and couldn't do it without three hundred taels of silver. Even if they've lived for three years and are a bit old, they're definitely worth a hundred and fifty taels of silver."

"Then why didn't you buy it?" Lu Jinfeng was puzzled, "We do have a hundred and fifty silver taels."

The two hundred silver taels that Chen Mu Mu gave him were originally for building houses. He didn't need to build a house right now. If he bought a ready-made one, he would lose fifty taels of silver. Wouldn't that be great?

"Let's put it aside for two days and see." Chen Mu had an unfathomable smile on his face, "Doing business usually requires a cooldown period. If we were to easily reach an agreement, it would be very easy for us to suffer."

It wasn't that the Liu family's house wasn't worth one hundred and fifty silver taels, but the old housekeeper's attitude made her feel … This price could still be lowered a bit.

In her dictionary, if someone was able to bargain, she would definitely not be willing to let go of the other party's bottom line.

If he could spend less, why spend more?

"I never thought that there are so many ways to do business." Lu Jinfeng sighed.

"Yeah, so if you want to learn more from me, don't drag me down." Chen Mu Mu spoke seriously.

"I will." Lu Jinfeng did not refute her, and spoke with seriousness.

Since he had already signed the contract with the Feather Workshop, the work would have to begin. In the next three days, Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu decided to go into closed door cultivation in the house and draw quite a few sketches before sending them to the Feather Workshop.

Because of the different times, she had successfully made use of the time difference. After handing in her drawing script, she was free until the end of the month.

After clearing up, he brought Lu Jinfeng to wander around the town and city. After thoroughly researching all the restaurants and inns, he decided to make some snacks to sell.

"Let's make the fish-round and pastries. There is no one selling these things in the Linzhou City, it just so happens that we can get a fresh start. "We still don't have a way to do the food business yet, so we'll first make some food and bring it to the market to sell. When the market opens, we'll have more plans for the future." Chen Mu Mu Mu said.

Lu Jinfeng agreed deeply, "Then let's do as you say."

In addition to the fifty taels of silver Feng Ling Xi had given her after breaking the contract, Chen Mu Mu Mu still had two hundred taels of silver on her hands. Once she had the capital, she decided to contact the villagers that had gone to fish and sell their fish.

"You fish are tired and bitter when you deliver them to the town. If you're willing, how about we buy them at the town's price?" Chen Mu Mu Mu spoke to the villagers.

"How much do you want?" The villagers were astonished, "We catch fish every day, each family can get 20 to 30 catties. You guys shouldn't be able to finish all of them, so what are you going to use them for?"

"Make food." Chen Mu Mu smiled and said, "You'll know when the time comes. Anyway, I'll buy fish from you, and the price isn't lower than the market price. Moreover, I also have time for you to go to the town and sell them."

Catching fish was already a difficult day. After getting one, he would have to sell it in the town as it was still fresh. If he could not sell it at the right time, then no one would want it. Moreover, even if they were fresh fish, they were not the only ones selling fish in the town. They could set up stalls for a few hours and not necessarily all of them could be sold.

Now that there were people in the village collecting fish and buying them all, no matter what she did with them, it would not be a bad thing for the villagers who caught fish.

Even if Lu Jinfeng's family did not have a good reputation in the village, now that Lu Jinfeng's sickness has healed, and he still had money, who would be able to go against money?

Thus, the deal was made.
