Chapter 444: Negotiation
Shu Yu noticed that Mr. Guo was reluctant to let go of the mirror, which pleased her secretly. She spoke slowly, "Mr. Guo, I can assure you that this item is one-of-a-kind in our Daqi Dynasty. Not just you, even ordinary people would recognize its value, right?"
Mr. Guo nodded. Indeed, with the abundance of high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, many would appreciate a mirror that could reflect even the tiniest flaw on their faces.
However, he forcefully suppressed his astonishment and put down the mirror. Maintaining a calm and gentle demeanor, he said, "This mirror is indeed a remarkable item. May I know your proposed price?"
Shu Yu countered, "Actually, I should be asking you what your offer is."
Seeing that she was unwilling to make the first move, Mr. Guo fell silent for a moment and began to assess the mirror's value.
After a while, he said, "I won't beat around the bush with you. We, the black market, are willing to offer 10,000 taels."
Shu Yu smiled. "It seems like you're not very sincere. This item is an imported product, and you can't imagine the amount of manpower, resources, and effort it took to transport it all the way here to the Daqi Dynasty. Not to mention, it's the only glass mirror in the entire dynasty. Well, I only brought it here because I didn't want to put in too much effort. If you're not interested, I can take it back and sell it in the capital. Although the journey is a bit far, it should still be worthwhile."
Shu Yu was about to take the mirror back when Mr. Guo quickly reached out and pressed it down, smiling and saying, "Please wait, dear customer. You seem a bit impatient. Negotiating the price is normal in a business transaction. If you're not satisfied with the price, we can discuss it further, can't we?"
"Discussing is certainly not a problem, but there needs to be some sincerity."
Mr. Guo knew he couldn't fool her, and he truly desired the mirror. He even anticipated the commotion it would cause once it was presented outside.
Mr. Guo pursed his lips and said, "Twenty thousand taels. This is already the highest offer I can make. I won't hide it from you, if the black market accepts the mirror, it will be auctioned at our auction. There is always a risk involved in an auction."
Furthermore, the price would likely be suppressed since it wouldn't be directly auctioned at the event.
Shu Yu smiled and held up three fingers. "Thirty thousand taels, and I'll leave the mirror with you."
"Dear customer, you're joking. Thirty thousand taels is a significant amount, and I can't make that decision."
"In that case, forget it."
"Wait." Mr. Guo felt a headache coming on. This customer was not easy to deal with. "How about I consult someone? Is that acceptable?"
"For how long?" Shu Yu frowned.
"Three days."
Three days? That was too long. She didn't want to complicate matters further. "What's the maximum amount you can decide on?"
"Twenty-five thousand taels," Mr. Guo said, his eyes flickering.
Shu Yu shook her head. "Twenty-eight thousand taels. That's my final concession. If you can't decide, then I'm sorry, I'll take it to the capital."
As she spoke, Shu Yu directly put the glass mirror back into the silk bag, carefully placed it in the box, and closed the lid.
Mr. Guo had been watching her every move. Seeing her swift and decisive actions, he finally sighed and said, "Alright, twenty-eight thousand it is."
