City: Start from participating in the Appreciation Program

Chapter 130 Purchase
Seeing this situation, Tan Xing became anxious, and hurriedly said: "Dad, they are going to report us, we are useless like this!"

If someone else was the notary, Tan Xing would naturally not be afraid that Tan Renjie would not let it go, but this time President Lu was the notary, and he would not let them be so shameless.

Tan Renjie asked his son with a smile: "Is there a rule in the competition that you can't go to your own store to buy things?"

Tan Xing nodded blankly and said, "It seems not."

Tan Renjie said again: "Then I only need to buy things in that price range, which is naturally in line with the rules of the competition, and no one stipulates that I can't find anything missing at Tan Renjie's booth."

When Tan Xing heard what Tan Renjie said, he immediately felt that it made sense, and he stopped talking immediately, instead looking forward to the scene after victory.

After he has won against that little boy, Qin Miaomiao will probably look at him with admiration. At that time, the two of them will develop and develop, and maybe they will be able to be together.

Not to mention that Tan Renjie started to play rogue here, Luo Fan looked at it for a long time, and finally found something interesting.

This is a very simple mahogany sword with three copper coins strung on the hilt, which seems to be an ornament to ward off evil spirits.

Luo Fan pointed to the mahogany sword and asked the stall owner, "Boss, how do you sell this mahogany sword?"

The boss glanced at Luo Fan, made some calculations in his mind, quoted a price, and said, "500 yuan, take it if you can."

This mahogany sword was something he bought back in the countryside for 20 yuan. He had someone appraise it. It was an ordinary wooden sword. A price of [-] yuan was considered the blackest of blacks.

Moreover, this is only a quotation, and there is still a lot of room for bargaining.

Luo Fan smiled wryly, finally found a good thing, but why is the price not within this range?
The reason why this range was set at the beginning was also for fairness, because if the price is too low, the rate of return will be somewhat unfair.

For example, if you buy something worth ten yuan and sell it for two hundred, the rate of return is nineteen times.

And a thing worth 1000 yuan, if you sell it for 2000 yuan, the rate of return is only doubled, but which of the two transactions is more discerning is really uncertain.

As for why the total price is not used, it is to prevent blindly stacking quantity and ignoring quality.

However, in general, Luo Fan has fooled himself.

Even if this thing is priced at [-], the rate of return is very impressive, but this boss, he actually sells it for [-], is he really not making any money?
At this time, there is not much time left, and there is no good news from Qin Miaomiao's side, Luo Fan is depressed for a while, can he just buy the thing he just saw?
The double rate of return was too unstable, and Luo Fan had an intuition that Tan Renjie would not let him win so easily.

However, Luo Fan suddenly thought of an idea, you always have to bargain when doing business, can't you get a thousand if you pay the price?
Thinking of this, Luo Fan pointed to the mahogany sword and said, "Such a quaint mahogany sword only sells for five hundred?"

The stall owner didn't understand Luo Fan's meaning, nodded, and repeated: "Indeed, you can take home such a simple mahogany sword for only five hundred."

Luo Fan saw that the boss didn't understand what he meant, and quickly said: "Such a simple and simple mahogany sword can't be sold for 1000 yuan? Selling it for 500 yuan is not in line with its value!"

As soon as Luo Fan said this, not only the boss was dumbfounded, but even the crowd who came with him were also dumbfounded. This is the first time I have seen this kind of bargaining method, are you a little too straightforward?
However, someone soon understood what Luo Fan meant. He wanted to play around and get away with it because the price of the mahogany sword did not meet the minimum standard.

However, since Luo Fan was buying at an increased price, rather than engaging in any shady activities, the onlookers didn't think there was anything wrong.

It's just that they were very curious, why Luo Fan would have the confidence to increase the price to buy such an ordinary-looking mahogany sword.

The stall owner understood what Luo Fan meant when he heard Luo Fan's explicit statement, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Young man, you really have vision."

"You're right, such a quaint mahogany sword will cost 2000 yuan."

Luo Fan was shocked by the stall owner's coquettish operation. Did he treat himself as a fool?
There was still enough time, Luo Fan turned around and was about to leave without even thinking about it, he was not immune to this uselessness.

This mahogany sword also opened Luo Fan's mind. He can actually look at things with a slightly lower price. As long as the pick-up is big enough, he can get enough yield even if he buys at a higher price.

Seeing that Luo Fan was about to leave, the stall owner also knew that he had gone too far, so he quickly changed his smiling face, stopped the little fat sheep who took the initiative to increase the price, and said with a smile:
"Little brother, don't go. I was just joking with you. If you want this mahogany sword, you can take it for 1000 yuan."

Luo Fan turned around and said amusedly: "That's a coincidence, I was joking with you too, I think this mahogany sword can be sold for 100 yuan."

"Are you selling it or not? If you sell it, I will pay directly. If you don't sell it, I will buy other things."

Luo Fan is not used to this kind of profiteer, and he doesn't have to use this mahogany sword either.

When the stall owner heard Luo Fan's words, his expression turned ugly instantly, and he said, "Go, go, I'm joking and go to another place. This is where I do business."

Luo Fan didn't mind, he repeated it, and said, "100 yuan, will you sell it or not?"

The stall owner thought about it for a while, and collected 20 yuan, and then asked the free appraisers in the hall to appraise it for free. Now it sells for 100 yuan, but it can be sold.

It's just that his expectations were raised by Luo Fan's words of 1000 yuan, so now that he is asked to sell it for 100 yuan, he is a little entangled.

However, the stall owner is a businessman after all, so it is impossible to let money go without making money because of a moment of enthusiasm.

Although 80 yuan is small, it is enough to pay for meals for a few days.

Thinking of this, the stall owner's expression changed again, he laughed, and said: "Sell, sell, who would be troubled by money, little brother, I will pack it for you, and you can pick it up after paying."

In the blink of an eye, the stall owner put the mahogany sword into a plastic pocket, with really quick hands.

Luo Fan checked the items, and after confirming that they hadn't been swapped, he paid 100 yuan, took the mahogany sword and left, ready to find the next target.

It took another ten minutes to go around and around, and the time was coming to an end. Luo Fan found another target.

This is a very common dressing box with a picture of a lady painted on it. The real thing is the real thing, but it doesn't look so old, it may be something from the late Qing Dynasty or the early Republic of China.

Luo Fan asked about the price, and the boss offered only 800 yuan, which was very much in line with Luo Fan's request.

After Luo Fan's obvious statement and the assistance of the melon eaters, the stall owner simply sold it to Luo Fan for 1000 yuan.

At the same time, he directly called a buddy to help watch the booth, and he followed Luo Fan directly, becoming a melon-eating crowd.

He was probably also curious why Luo Fan felt that his ordinary dressing box was worth so much money.

Since the time was coming to an end, Luo Fan took the dressing box and went to meet Qin Miaomiao.

Although at the beginning it was agreed that the two would negotiate before deciding what to buy in the end, but because the time was a little too late, the two just checked the yield and bought the thing.

The items on Qin Miaomiao's side are similar to those on Luo Fan's side, with the same ten-fold rate of return. As for the price, it is a full 2000 yuan.

As for why both of them bought it, of course it was because they were confident in themselves. Since the rate of return was the same, there was no need to make a trade-off.

Soon, the two gathered together, leading a large group of people eating melons, and walked towards Jianbao Pavilion in a mighty manner.

When Luo Fan and the two arrived at Jianbao Pavilion, they found that Tan Renjie and his son were drinking tea comfortably in the hall, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as Tan Xing saw Qin Miaomiao come back, he planned to come over to show his hospitality, but Luo Fan directly blocked him.

Seeing this, Tan Xing could only retreat resentfully, and cursed secretly: "Why does this little boy like to meddle so much?"

Tan Renjie was much calmer, and said with a smile: "You two are slow enough, I've been drinking tea here for almost half an hour."

Luo Fan looked at the smiling tiger Tan Renjie, looked at the clock hanging in the hall, and said exaggeratedly: "I checked the time, and there are still 3 minutes until eleven o'clock. Urge others."

"If you think an hour is too much time, you can bring it up before the game starts, instead of postponing it."

To Luo Fan's surprise, Tan Renjie was not angry when he heard what he said, but just said lightly: "It seems that I made a slip of the tongue, and it's time for you to come back."

How could Tan Renjie not be angry?However, at this moment, he already felt that he had a sure chance of winning, and there was no need to have the same knowledge as this kind of junior. Doing so would only lower his status.

It's better to wait for the results of the game to come out, and then educate this kid who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and see if his mouth can still be so hard.

Seeing that the two groups of people had returned to the hall, Lu Zhi also stood up from his seat, and said to Luo Fan and the two: "Okay, since everyone is back, please give me the things you bought."

"By the way, before you come back, I have already appraised the things Tan Renjie bought here."

"This is a vase bought for 1000 yuan. The market price is estimated at 1000 yuan, and the rate of return is ten times."

"The things are here. If you two have objections, you can raise them."

"As for the things you two bought, you can give an introduction first."

Before Luo Fan stopped him, Qin Miaomiao said, "The two of us bought a wooden Guanyin and a dressing box respectively, and the yield is estimated to be about ten times."

When Luo Fan heard this, he secretly thought that it was terrible. This Qin Miaomiao was a pig teammate, and he actually said the content of the conversation between the two of them.

After hearing Qin Miaomiao's introduction, Lu Zhi began to appraise the things they bought.

Unexpectedly, what Tan Renjie found had a terrifying ten-fold rate of return. It took me a long time to find something with a ten-fold rate of return.

Could it be that I will lose?Although Qin Miaomiao had been prepared for a long time, when the failure was about to come, she was still a little unwilling. The ten-fold rate of return of her wooden Guanyin statue was not so stable.

This is still under the condition that the two people's calculations can't be wrong. If Luo Fan is wrong, there will be no ten times the rate of return.

Soon, the appraisal results of Luo Fan's group came out, and Lu Zhi directly announced the results, saying: "The Guanyin woodcarving purchased by Qin Miaomiao for 2000 yuan is estimated at 6000 yuan, and the yield is double."

"The jewelry box that Luo Fan bought for 1000 yuan is estimated at [-] yuan, and the yield is minus [-] times."

"The aggregate rate of return is about [-] times."

"If you have any objections, you can directly raise them with me."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Lu Zhi's eyes, this Luo Fan was indeed a blind cat and a dead mouse last time, it seems that he is at this level.

As soon as the words fell, Tan Xing laughed exaggeratedly, and said: "Miao Miao, have you seen that, this little boy is unreliable, and he is completely a hindrance."

However, Tan Xing's words only got Qin Miaomiao's ignorance, and she didn't want to pay attention to this wisdom at all.

The melon-eating people around were also discussing and expressing their disappointment with Luo Fan.

"The operation is really fierce like a tiger. Looking at the record of 0-5, is this minus [-] times the rate of return okay?"

"I just said how could that vanity box make money. I looked it up and down several times. It was a 500 yuan thing. This time I sold it for 1000 yuan. I made a lot of money."

The one who said this was the stall owner who sold Luo Fan's dressing box back then. He finally saw a satisfactory answer and thought to himself, how could he be wrong.

"This Luo Fan makes me laugh so hard. He has contracted my laughing point for a year. The No. 17 appraiser last time, this time's minus [-] times yield is simply delicious and fun."

"Can you be normal? No matter how bad they are, they still choose things based on their own abilities. They are much better than the cheating Tan Renjie. I heard that he went directly to his booth to get the vase at a low price."

"Let me tell you a joke, leaks can be found at Tan Renjie's booth."

……

Not to mention other people's thoughts, Qin Miaomiao was a little unbelievable at this time, and said, "President Lu, are you reading it wrong? I estimate the price of this wooden Guanyin to be a little over 2 yuan."

It's not that Qin Miaomiao can't afford to lose, but that he doesn't understand why his valuation is wrong.

However, before Lu Zhi could speak, Luo Fan spoke first, and said, "Qin Miaomiao, if this Guanyin wood carving is intact, it will be worth 2 yuan."

"It's just that there is a flaw in Guanyin's right ear, which caused the value of this wood carving of Guanyin to plummet. The estimated price of [-] is very real."

Qin Miaomiao picked up the Avalokitesvara woodcarving and looked at it. Sure enough, she found the flaw that Luo Fan mentioned, and understood why the value was so greatly reduced.

This flaw is perfectly hidden under the grain of the wood. If you don't look carefully, you can basically see nothing abnormal.
