Kevin just waved a hand and laughed ”Fine You know I trust you So, tell me, how much do you want?”
”How about 5,000 dollars?” Hans asked
Kevin pushed the dinnerware towards them ”Take it away then I could buy a new set for 5,000”
Hans started to pack up the dinnerware, saying, ”Alright then, you can go buy a new set I’onna look for Old Nix He’s sure to be interested in this silverware”

”Don’t talk,” Hans replied ”He’ll stop us”
Just as his voice dropped, Kevin coughed from behind them ”Come back you rascal, you sly little weasel Give me your actual price”
”5,000 dollars is my actual price,” Hans said ”Last tie chair to you, you just turned around and sold it for 11,000 dollars- earning 5,000 dollars just like that You can earn just as e chair orth that much only because I fixed it This set of tableon’t bring thatthe friendshi+p between Felix and ive you 2,000 dollars”
”That’s an insult to the friendshi+p between you and my father Four-thousand five-hundred dollars That’sFelix into this Two-thousand five-hundred dollars That’s not a low price”
The two engaged in a tug-of-war over the price while next to them Li Du listened with interest After a while, the price was stuck at 3,800 dollars This price really wasn’t bad, and actually a little higher than Li Du had expected He’d thought that being able to sell it at 3,000 dollars was already a great deal
Old Kevin, however, was still trying to cut the price down to 3,600 dollars
”Three-thousand six-hundred dollars is alright,” Hans finally said ”It’s going to be lunchtime soon Why don’t you treat us to some la you 3,800 dollars,” the oldfellas”
The storage unit they’d bought at 300 dollars had sold for 4,300—including some other stuff that Hans had sold for 500, they’d made a total of 4,300 dollars this time

”Why would they be hard to sell?” Hans asked ”I admit, these aren’t a set, but they look like one— and the quality is good Don’t you think that they’re great?”
”They are great But who are you going to sell the his head
”If I take and sell this, I’d need to sell it for at least 5,000 dollars But the people who can afford that kind of price won’t be interested in buying so to, well, probably wouldn’t have that kind of ht that this was just an excuse to bring down the price, but Hans didn’t push the sale ”Then keep the pictures,” Hans said, ”and help me see whether there are any buyers With a ten percent commission fee, just like old times”
When they left this time, the old eneral stores and two secondhand furniture shops The furniture still re to take it, like Old Kevin, or the price was too low The fellow called Old Nix actually offered them an unbelievably low price of only 1,000 dollars!
