Chapter 4973 Pricing
Seeing this, the old Taoist didn't plan to ask for gold, but he didn't say anything about making friends with Zhang Yu. I guess at such an old age, he might find it a bit difficult to open his mouth when he takes the initiative.
But sometimes there is no need to say this kind of thing, after all, it is a favor. Zhang Yu immediately said: "Thank you so much, senior. If you don't give up, how about staying here to drink a few glasses of plain wine tonight?"
"We'll talk about it then." After finishing speaking, the old Taoist sat back on the chair.
Seeing the old Taoist go back, Zhang Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong, that is, when the old Taoist spoke, he seemed to deliberately suppress his voice and use a falsetto.
Even so, Zhang Yu couldn't say anything. Some people in the world don't like to show their true colors. Maybe the old man was disguising himself, or maybe there was some enemy present and he didn't want others to hear his voice.
Zhang Yu thought that he should stop meddling in his own business, after all, his own affairs have not been resolved yet.
He thanked Lao Dao again, then turned around and walked forward with Master Xue.
Returning to the front seat, Zhang Yu asked Xue Laodao to take a seat first. He stood there and looked at the people from various sects opposite.
"Everyone, your items have been reviewed. The fakes have been cleared out, and the rest are from Bishui Manor. Pindao has said it before. Since he has taken over Bishui Manor, the previous debt disputes of the manor will naturally be borne. "Zhang Yu said loudly.
"Young Daoist Zhang really values loyalty!" "Daoist Zhang is young and promising, with both political integrity and talent. It's really better to be famous than to meet him!" "Since Daoist Zhang is willing to take the responsibility, that's the best thing. From now on, everyone will be friends! Wait until things happen here. Well, the poor monk will definitely go to Wudang Dao to worship the mountain in person!"... Everyone present heard this and immediately said this.
The sedan chairmen were carrying people, and Zhang Yu acknowledged his fault and was willing to pay compensation, so what did he say to say nice things?
After all these people's voices had settled down and the scene became quiet, Zhang Yu did not speak immediately this time, but walked forward and came to Yuntai Guanzhi Chunzi's table.
Zhichunzi and his junior brother Zhixiazi didn't understand why Zhang Yu came to them, and they both looked at Zhang Yu curiously.
Zhang Yu looked at the objects on the table, reached out and grabbed an emerald statue of the Three Stars of Fortune, Luxury and Shou, and said, "Taoist Priest, I have something to ask. I would like to hear Taoist Priest's opinion?"
"Infinite Heavenly Lord!" Zhichunzi stood up and said, "If you have anything to say, fellow Daoist Zhang, just say it..."
"Pindao is willing to compensate, but who will own the items here?" Zhang Yu said deliberately.
"Of course it belongs to our Yuntai Temple..." Zhichunzi said hurriedly: "We brought all the materials. Bishui Manor is only responsible for the craftsmanship. It cannot be said that in addition to compensating for the craftsmanship, we have to give the things to Daoist Zhang... "
"What Brother Tao said is absolutely true. The things will naturally return to us." "The materials themselves are ours, and they are all valuable. We can't leave them in Bishui Manor. Then we will lose money." "That's right, it was originally We provide the materials ourselves and give the manor the money for the work. The fellow Taoist is now paying us the money for the work, so we can’t just take the things away with us."...Other people also said the same thing.
Can something worth 100 kilograms of gold just made by hand be a street vendor? Just like when Zhang Yu got the jade from Bishui Manor, they were all top-grade Hetian jade and were valuable in themselves.
"Everyone, please be patient and listen to me first." Zhang Yu said with a smile on his face.
His voice didn't seem loud, but everyone present could hear him clearly. With just this sentence, everyone can feel that Zhang Yu's cultivation is really impressive.
All these people shut their mouths. Zhichunzi looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Fellow Taoist, please speak."
"Brother Taoist, this jadeite statue of the Three Stars of Fortune, Luxury and Longevity was just a piece of high-quality jadeite before we got it from Bishui Manor. Its value is indeed high, but after processing, the price will inevitably increase. Even with the poor carving skills, It has not achieved the original effect and is not worth a hundred kilograms of gold, but it has also increased the value of the original piece of jade. Therefore, there must be a price difference. If Pindao returns it at the original price of one hundred kilograms of craftsmanship, then The loss is not only the labor cost, but also the value originally created by Bishui Manor. So at this point, should we sit down and talk." Zhang Yu said slowly.
Everyone present knew that it was not easy to get Zhang Yu to compensate according to the price. As expected, Zhang Yu found out the reason so quickly.
However, these people had been prepared to make concessions before. They could not take back all of it, but they could take back 70 to 80% of it.
"What Taoist Fellow Daoist Zhang said is absolutely true. This jadeite statue of Fortune, Fortune, and Longevity has indeed become more beautiful after being processed by Bishui Manor. Just as Taoist Master said, it is not worth a hundred pounds of gold after all. The craftsmanship of Bishui Manor, Pindao thought he could sell twenty kilograms of gold for it." Zhichunzi was unambiguous and made concessions on the spot, giving Zhang Yu a 20% discount.
"Thank you, Brother Tao, for understanding everything." Zhang Yu said politely.
"You're welcome, this is what you should do. I, Yuntai Guan, will never take advantage of others." Zhichunzi said loudly.
"The poor Taoist would also like to ask Taoist brother, how many good faith do you need to make if you go to Gui Guan to invite you?" Zhang Yu said politely again.
"In the past, it would have been at least 50 million. Even 70, 80 million and 100 million would be normal. Now... 150,000 is enough..." Zhichunzi said.
Zhang Yu had played stone gambling before and knew the price of jade. This piece of jade Guanyin is not particularly large, but it is of excellent quality and is a glass jadeite. Just buying such a piece of jade is estimated to cost several million. After processing, especially the craftsmanship from Bishui Manor, it is worth at least ten million or more. Zhichunzi did not lie.
If Lei Ge's apprentice hadn't processed it on his behalf and the heat was insufficient, including the processing fee for the one hundred kilograms of gold and the formations consecrated and blessed by Yuntaiguan's masters, the starting price would have been fifty million.
"In this case... How about the poor Taoist asking for this statue of the Three Stars of Fortune, Luxury and Longevity for 25 million..." Zhang Yu said.
"Huh?" Zhichunzi was obviously stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it for a while, he vaguely guessed Zhang Yu's thoughts. Zhang Yu planned to take it back and sell it again to minimize the loss. However, there are so many objects present, both Buddhist and Taoist, of all kinds, and you can take them all back if you have as much money as you have. After accepting the Buddhists, can you still take action in the Taoist temple?
For now, this statue of the Three Stars of Fortune, Luxury and Longevity cannot be blessed and its value has been greatly reduced. Twenty-five million was sold to Zhang Yu, and he had completed his task. He did not cause any loss to Yuntaiguan and made a profit. In terms of love, I can get along with Zhang Yu. After all, Master Xue of the Shushan Sect is giving you a platform. It would really not be good if you don't even give him this face.
