293: No more talkative talk
At this moment, Feng Zhiquan was also caught in a dilemma, but the other two people present paid no attention to this "outsider."
Since Ye Su knew Qian Zhiyi's bottom price beforehand, he naturally wouldn't buy the warehouse for 100,000 yuan and let himself be taken for a fool.
"100,000 yuan is too high. If I buy it at this price, at best I can only guarantee that I won't lose money on this warehouse full of goods."
Ye Su casually offered a counter-price: "How about 68,000? It's an auspicious number, and a price I can accept."
After these past few months of practice, Ye Su had become increasingly adept at bargaining.
In any case, he just had to be bold, start with a low offer, and then slowly negotiate from there.
One must never be afraid to bargain, otherwise, they would be the only one losing money.
As Ye Su expected, the price he offered was over 10,000 yuan lower than Qian Zhiyi's reservation price, so Qian Zhiyi naturally couldn't agree:
"No way, 68,000 is way too low! I'd lose my shirt!"
After a theatrical display of mock panic, Qian Zhiyi held up five fingers: "I'll drop it by another 5,000 yuan. 95,000, how about that?"
Ye Su shook his head, showing not the slightest interest:
"95,000 is still too high. Since Boss Qian doesn't care about auspicious numbers, I can add another 2,000 yuan to round it up to 70,000. How about that?"
"I really can't let it go for 70,000!"
"..."
Just like that, the two sides went back and forth, one dropping by a few thousand and the other adding a few thousand.
As a spectator, Feng Zhiquan watched their battle of words from the side, secretly marveling at Ye Su's business acumen, which was not at all like someone his age.
"Final offer, 78,000. This price should be fine, right?" Seeing that the price had been bargained down enough, Ye Su gave his final offer:
"You're renting this warehouse to store things right now. Besides taking care of it, you also have to pay rent every month. The longer you drag this out, the more money you lose. You might as well sell it now."
Hearing this, Qian Zhiyi fell silent for a moment.
It was true that his bottom price was 80,000 yuan, but what Ye Su said was also the truth.
The Secondhand Shop he used to run had already closed down some time ago, leaving only this warehouse of goods waiting for someone to take over.
If he couldn't sell it, in addition to the warehouse rent, he would also have to keep sinking his own time into it.
After weighing the pros and cons, Qian Zhiyi finally grit his teeth and nodded: "Alright, 78,000 it is. Let's consider this as me making a friend out of you, Boss Ye."
Shaving off another 2,000 yuan from the 80,000 yuan bottom price gave Ye Su a slight sense of achievement. He smiled and extended his right hand:
"Pleasure doing business with you."
"Pleasure doing business with you." Qian Zhiyi shook hands with Ye Su once again.
On the side, Feng Zhiquan was also very satisfied with this outcome.
With the transaction successfully completed, he would get a commission of several thousand yuan, and Qian Zhiyi hadn't sold it for too high a price, which made him feel a bit more balanced.
"Haha, congratulations to both bosses."
In a good mood, Feng Zhiquan cheerfully congratulated the two of them.
"Thank you for the introduction, Boss Feng," Ye Su nodded to him.
However, Ye Su knew very well that Feng Zhiquan was willing to act as a middleman and had taken the time to accompany them to inspect the warehouse today.
Behind it all, he was definitely after the middleman commission from Qian Zhiyi.
Since it was strictly business, Ye Su didn't mention giving him an extra referral fee.
After nodding to Feng Zhiquan, Qian Zhiyi turned to ask Ye Su:
"Boss Ye, do you plan to move these things out, or do you want to renew the lease on this warehouse?"
"I'll keep renting it. Otherwise, I have no place to put all these things."
"Alright, I'll contact the landlord right now and have them come over to sign a new lease."
"Okay."
Qian Zhiyi first contacted the warehouse management on his phone before signing the sales contract with Ye Su.
Once the contract was signed, Ye Su transferred the payment of 78,000 yuan, and the items in the warehouse officially belonged to him.
[Ding!]
Right after Ye Su completed the transfer on his mobile banking app, a system prompt immediately popped up.
[Congratulations to the owner for purchasing the secondhand warehouse. You have obtained [Intelligence Item—Ivory Mahjong] and successfully upgraded [Mysterious Surprise Item-Ruyi Abacus] from Level 1 to Level 2.]
[[Ruyi Abacus] Current monthly reimbursement limit: 400,000 yuan]
[[Ruyi Abacus] Remaining reimbursement limit for this month: 0 yuan]
[[Ruyi Abacus] Reimbursement details for this month:]
[Secondhand acquisition: 1,950 yuan]
["After Rebirth, I Chose to Become the Empress Myself" secondary market investment: 500,000 yuan]
[Purchase of Xingchao Garment Factory equipment: 180,000 yuan]
[Xingchao Garment Factory capital injection: 500,000 yuan]
[Purchase of secondhand warehouse: 78,000 yuan]
[[Ruyi Abacus] Accumulated reimbursement amount for this month: 1,259,950 yuan]
"It upgraded, but it's still not enough for this month's reimbursements!"
When he got the [Ruyi Abacus] last month and saw the monthly reimbursement limit of a whopping 200,000 yuan,
Ye Su had thought it was so much money that he would never be able to spend it all, and that he would have to worry every month about how to completely burn through that 200,000 yuan.
Now, seeing the monthly reimbursement limit double from 200,000 to 400,000 yuan, it was still far from enough to cover his investment expenses for this month.
Only now did Ye Su realize how hilarious his worry about not being able to spend the monthly limit was when he had just activated the [Ruyi Abacus] last month.
Moreover, today was only the 6th. Only a fifth of the month had passed, yet nearly 1.26 million yuan in reimbursements had already been generated.
He still had to stock up on 100,000 swimsuits later, which would easily require another several hundred thousand yuan of investment.
Who knew how much the accumulated reimbursements would be by the end of the month.
Even if it didn't reach 10 million, it would probably be several million.
This morning, Ye Jianguo had also mentioned having the factory workers work overtime this month to rush the production, which would mean paying them extra overtime pay and bonuses.
Next month, the wages of just these 51 workers would basically wipe out the entire 400,000 yuan limit.
"I can only hope that I can get another one or two upgrade opportunities for the [Ruyi Abacus] this month."
As he invested in more and more industries, his monthly reimbursement expenses rose accordingly.
Ye Su no longer dared to talk big about things like "I don't even know how to spend a 200,000 yuan monthly reimbursement limit."
After checking the reward credited from the [hidden easter egg] and the reimbursement limit generated by the [Ruyi Abacus] this month,
Ye Su closed the system and asked Qian Zhiyi if he had received the bank transfer.
"Since you've signed the contract, I'll be off first."
Confirming that the transaction was complete, Feng Zhiquan had no intention of waiting around any longer. He said goodbye to the two of them and left.
As he walked out the door, he also received a commission transfer of 3,900 yuan from Qian Zhiyi.
After waiting at the warehouse for a while, Ye Su and Qian Zhiyi also saw the arrival of the warehouse manager and signed the new lease agreement.
This warehouse was only 61 square meters, and the monthly rent was 29 yuan per square meter, totaling 1,647 yuan.
