Chapter 287 (2/2)
”Oh!” His eyes suddenly brightened, and the owner of the exchange said quietly, ”suspended stone? That's a specialty of Houtu city. I just don't know how much Mr. Soga wants to buy. ”
”En......” after pondering for a while, Soga said flatly: ”there are at least hundreds of tons. If the price is appropriate, thousands of tons are also possible!”
”What!” Looking at Soga in horror, the boss was stunned. The price of a ton of pumice was 100 billion, but this guy bought hundreds of tons, or even thousands of tons. He really can't decide such a big deal.
Wiping the sweat on his forehead, the owner of the exchange said cautiously, ”Mr. Soga, are you kidding? This is not a small number. You should know that the suspended pumice is very expensive. The price of a ton is 100 billion merchants! ”
Clearly nodded, Soga said calmly, ”I know what you said, but I'm not idle to amuse you. I really want to do this business.”
”OK...” suddenly gritted his teeth, and the owner of the exchange said flatly: ”in that case, I'll write you a letter of introduction. You go to the city master's house to talk to our city master. I can't do such a big deal, but... Are you sure you want to buy it? You know... The city Lord is not as talkative as me! ”
Hearing the boss's words, Soga smiled, nodded and said, ”don't worry about this. I haven't lived enough, not to mention... You can check. Do I break my promise when I do business?”
He nodded reassuringly. The owner of the exchange quickly dragged the paper and pen, drafted a letter of introduction, sealed it with an envelope, handed it to Soga and said, ”take this letter, go to the city Lord's house to discuss with the city Lord. I have no right to decide such a large deal.”
With a smile and a nod, Soga took the letter and asked about the location of the city Lord's house. After asking about the location, they left the exchange with Nicole and rushed to the city Lord's house.
With the letter of introduction from the owner of the exchange, Soga was easily received by the mayor. After all... Economy is the most important link for any city. Without money, nothing can be done.
Sitting in the magnificent reception room, tasting the sweet fruit juice, they waited silently. It is said that... The city Lord is receiving a big man, so it will take a while to meet Soga.
After waiting for two hours, when Soga was a little impatient, the door was suddenly pushed open in a burst of footsteps outside the door. Then... A middle-aged man with a huge eagle hook nose strode in.
Although they haven't introduced each other yet, looking at the eagle's hooked nose, the dragon's walking and tiger's walking, and the high momentum, Soga can already determine the identity of the other party, but... The dark light in the other party's eyes from time to time can tell that he is a scheming person. But think about it carefully. It's normal. How can ordinary people sit on the throne of the city master?
While thinking, the city Lord sat down on the seat opposite Soga and looked at Soga calmly. The city Lord said coldly, ”are you Mr. Soga, a big businessman? I heard... You have big business to talk to us? ”
”Er!” Nodded, Soga didn't expect that the other party should be so crisp and straightforward. He came straight to the point and didn't have any politeness. However, Soga was very welcome.
With a slight smile, Soga said calmly, ”yes, we're here to buy some suspended stones from Houtu city. The batch is relatively large. I hope the price can be reduced. Therefore, the boss of the exchange asked me to see you.”
”Oh...” nodded, and the city Lord said in a deep voice, ”do you want to buy suspended stones? That's no problem, but... How much do you want? ”
He glanced at the city master slightly, Soga hesitated, and then said flatly, ”it's not fixed yet. It depends on the price. If the price is appropriate, he will buy hundreds of tons. If the price is enough to make people excited, it's not impossible to buy thousands of tons!”
Hearing Soga's words, the city master was moved. Houtu city has never made such a large deal since history. If it can really promote this deal, maybe... His great event is possible.
In fact, the price of suspended stone is not so high, but the city Lord knows that the more you put, the lower the price. Only when you put less can you guarantee the price.
All ores have veins. The reserves of suspended stones are limited after all. Therefore... The city Lord chose to keep a large backlog of suspended stones to ensure the high price of suspended stones. Although the profit cycle is infinitely prolonged, the total amount of money is obviously much more.
While thinking, the city Lord pondered a little, and then said flatly, ”well, if you buy a thousand tons, we'll give you a 20% discount. What do you think of the price?”
”20% off!” Stunned, Soga stared at the city master and said, ”Mr. city master, your joke is too big. You know, after I bought the ore, I have to transport, process, manufacture, and then sell it. After so many procedures, my profit is less than 10%!”
Hearing Soga's words, the city Lord could not help frowning. He also knew that 20% discount was not very good for such a large batch, but if he folded too much, he was a little reluctant.
Looking at the expression of the city Lord, Suoga couldn't help laughing. For others, this ore may be a good thing, but for the city Lord, it's not worth money at all.
Take Soga as an example. After owning the precious metal ore vein, any precious metal is not so valuable in his eyes. Without two more pickaxes, something without capital should be 60% off if he is sincere.
While thinking about it, the city Lord said, ”well, tell me, how much will you be satisfied?”
Hearing the city master's words, Soga pondered a little, and then said flatly, ”well, I'll say a price, and you agree to let's trade, otherwise it's OK. How about a 60% discount?”
”What!” Suddenly stood up, and the city master said incredulously, ”are you kidding? 60% off? Why don't you let me give it to you for nothing? I won't agree to such a low price anyway. ”
With a helpless sigh, Soga stood up, shrugged his shoulders and said, ”in this case, there's nothing to talk about. Maybe you think the price is too hard, but if you don't, I have no profit at all...”
While talking, Soga turned and walked towards the door. Looking at the figure of Soga gradually disappearing, the city Lord frowned tightly. At the moment when Soga was about to step out of the door, the city Lord's eyes suddenly lit up and said loudly, ”by the way, Mr. Soga is a big businessman, isn't he?”
”Well?” Suspiciously stopped, Soga turned his head, looked at the city master and said, ”yes, I can't see you if it's not a businessman.”
Hearing Soga's words, the city Lord pondered for a moment, and then said flatly, ”if you buy it with money, it's impossible to give me a 60% discount, but... If you can get me a batch of precious metals in a short time, I can exchange it with you with suspended stones!”
”Well?” Hearing the words of the city Lord, Soga was shocked. You know, although Soga has already become the city Lord of Soga and controlled the origin of precious metals, this news has always been kept secret. Outsiders can't know, but... How does the city Lord know? This novel has been translated byand if you are reading this somewhere, they have stolen our translation.
