Chapter 4: Price clash
Walking into the gun shop, Brown, the owner in his fifties, immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Steven, welcome to visit our business again!"
Hearing this, Ye Tian could only smile wryly.
I have visited here several times in the past six months, but every time I come here I sell guns instead of buying them.
The Brown boss in front of him, don’t look amiable, but definitely a profiteer. He has only used a new gun three or five times, and he can be described as tattered and worthless, so he can take it away at a very low price.
But today is different. It is absolutely impossible for you old fellow to not let a little blood!
"Yes, I'm here to sell guns today!"
Ye Tian smiled and walked to Brown
"Welcome very much, take your baby out and let me enjoy it"
Of course, Ye Tian is welcome. Ye Tian gave a lot of money here, so he can be regarded as a good customer.
Ye Tian didn't take out the gun immediately, but said in a serious face.
"Brown, do you change the place? This is not an ordinary gun, but an antique pistol, which is more expensive."
"Wow! Great! Can you tell me what brand of pistol is? And its origin, I don't accept illegal guns, I will be in big trouble!"
Brown was excited at first, then became very cautious.
Ye Tian knows a little bit about the situation. It's already precarious. How can there be antique guns for sale? Maybe there is a problem with the source?
"Although you can rest assured, the gun is legal and its origin is clear. It has just been obtained through a warehouse auction. Preston Warehouse can provide me with proof.
The pistol is Luger P08, produced in 1940, how about it? Are you interested? If you are interested, we can talk about it. If not, I can only go to another house."
Ye Tian smiled and explained
After hearing these words, Brown almost jumped up with excitement.
"Wow! You are such a lucky boy. You can find Ruger P08 in the abandoned warehouse. God has already begun to look after you.
I always wanted to take Ruger, but I didn't have such an opportunity. You are really an angel sent to me by God. Let's talk about it! "
If it were not for the counter between the two sides, it is estimated that Brown could hug Ye Tian and kiss him!
Then, Brown asked his buddy to look at the shop and led Ye Tian into the negotiation room in a hurry.
Before opening his backpack, Ye Tian joked:
"Brown, how is your heart? If it is not very healthy, I suggest you prepare medicine first, and then I will take out this pistol, lest you get too excited and have problems, it's worthless!"
"Don't worry, there is no problem, I can kill a cow now, so I can take out your baby quickly, I'm in a hurry!"
Brown rubbed his hands and said excitedly, his eyes fixed on Ye Tian's backpack.
"Well, the moment of surprise is here!"
Ye Tian unzipped the backpack and gently took out the gun case.
"Wow! It's so exquisite, this must be a collector's item, and the protection is awesome"
Brown's eyes began to shine.
Next, Ye Tian opened the gun box and revealed the Ruger P08 inside.
Brown's eyes widened in an instant, and his eyeballs almost flew out, staring straight at the handgun shining with metallic cold light, his breathing was as fast as a train, and it was a bit scary!
"Please enjoy it, I believe you will love this baby deeply!"
Ye Tian smiled and pushed the gun case in front of Brown.
"I have fallen madly in love with it! It's so beautiful, this is the best thing a German has ever produced, the most elegant pistol!"
Brown was almost incoherent with excitement.
"hahaha"
Ye Tian burst out laughing.
Next, Ye Tian sat quietly beside him with a smile on his face.
Brown furiously rushed to this Ruger, especially when he saw the skull logo above the grip, his excited eyes almost burst into flames.
The room became very quiet, no one spoke, only the breathing of two people and the sound of fiddling with guns were heard.
Ten minutes passed quickly, and Brown struggled to look away from the pistol and looked at Ye Tian.
"Thank you very much for the baby, it's so beautiful!"
"This is indeed a work of art in a pistol, I also like it very much"
Ye Tian responded with a smile.
"Can I talk about the price next? I really want it to be my treasure!"
Brown's hand is always on the pistol, he is not willing to move it away for a second, he looks like he is sure to win.
"I'm here to sell it, make a price, if it is reasonable, I will keep it with you, I believe you will give a reasonable price, after all, this is Ruger P08"
Ye Tian intends to let the other party make a price first, and then respond by himself.
Brown pondered for a while, and then said:
"This pistol is kept in very good condition. It is 100% original. The production serial number is also very clear. There are not many shots. It should be regarded as the top grade in the pistol collection.
The current auction price of Ruger P08 is 20,000 US dollars. Considering that our relationship has always been good, I will bid 8,000 US dollars for this pistol, do you think it’s okay? "
Ye Tian was overjoyed, he deserves to be the nobleman in the pistol! But the price is far from its true value!
So he did not reply, but looked at Brown with a deep smile.
Seeing Ye Tian's unfathomable smile, Brown understood that it was impossible to win this price.
"Well, 10,000 US dollars, the price is very fair, after all, it is a private transaction, not at an auction, it is impossible to sell such a high price"
This price is indeed very fair to ordinary Ruger, but is this an ordinary Ruger? Obviously not!
"Brown, you should see the SS logo on the top of the grip, it means that this is a SS pistol, and what does the skull represent, I don't need to explain it again?
Then do you think the price of $10,000 is appropriate? It's best to re-quote. Otherwise, I will have to leave. I believe there are many people who like this gun, and there are definitely not a few who are willing to buy heavily."
Brown suddenly flushed a bit, and a little embarrassed.
It seems that he must be bleeding heavily today, otherwise he will definitely not be able to keep this skeleton head Ruger, and let this gun slip away in front of my eyes, that is absolutely impossible!
This is 10,000 times the investment of bank insurance! How can I miss it?
There are countless people in the United States who collect guns. As long as you buy this gun, wait until you have enough to play with it, resell it, and you will get two or three times the profit. Is there anything more cost-effective than this?
Thinking of this, Brown became more determined to take down the pistol, no longer circling with Ye Tian, and directly fired a price that met the value of the pistol.
is a businessman after all, thick-skinned is a necessary psychological quality, and in a blink of an eye, Brown's face returned to normal, and he said with a smile:
"Since you know Ruger so well, don't go around the corners, 20,000 dollars, what do you think?"
The price is fair, but who is too expensive?
"I think 30,000 US dollars is a relatively reasonable price, in line with my expectations"
Ye Tian smiled and repaid the price.
"22,000 US dollars, this is the limit price I can offer, if it exceeds this price, it means that I have no fate with this beautiful baby"
Brown looked at the pistol painfully, gritted his teeth and offered another price.
Ye Tian ignored him at all, and said in his heart:
"The acting is great! Why not go to Broadway acting? Staying in Brooklyn really buried talent!"
He smiled and offered a new price.
"28000, this is already a friendly price, because we have a good relationship, I took a step back"
"You are such a devil! 24000, I can't spend more, this is all my hard-earned money!"
Brown said painfully, his hand was still rubbing Ruger on the table.
" US$26,000, this is the final price. If you can’t accept it, then forget it. I’m going to see the Brooklyn Bridge.
I used to work there, and I know a lot of rich people, many of them collect antique guns, I think I can buy them at a very good price"
Ye Tian smiled and continued to attack, sending out a small threat.
Brown pressed his hand tightly on Ruger, not relaxing for a moment.
He didn't want the pistol to fly away from his eyes and fall into the hands of the gangsters in suits and leather on Wall Street.
"US$25,000, how about taking the middle number? If I can, I will write you a check now, cash is also OK, a brand new 100 US dollar bill!"
"I insist on 26,000 US dollars, we can go to the shooting range to try the gun, if it can be fired normally and there is no problem in performance, we will sell it at 26,000.
If there are any other flaws, the price is 24,000 US dollars. What do you think of UU reading www.uukanshu.com? I think this is the best way, everyone is happy! "
Ye Tian made a new proposal, which was very tempting.
In addition to wanting to make more money, he also wants to experience this world-famous gun. This is an experience he has never had before. Since he has encountered it, he must not miss it!
Brown pondered for a while, then stood up and stretched out his hand excitedly.
"OK, deal! Let's go to the shooting range"
"Deal!"
Ye Tian got up and shook his hands with Brown excitedly, then picked up the gun box and went to the shooting range under the gun shop with Brown.
ten minutes later.
"Boom! Bang! Bang!..."
The crisp sound of pistol shooting began to sound in the underground shooting range.
With the continuous firing of Ruger in Ye Tian's hand, a shuttle bullet pouring out from the muzzle in a blink of an eye. The human-shaped target on the shooting range was swayed constantly, and the head was beaten to pieces.
After shooting and checking the barrel, Ye Tian said with emotion:
"It's worthy of being called the Swiss watch gun! It's so accurate! It really means where to hit!"
"Come on, let me also experience this elegant nobleman in a gun!"
Brown has long been itchy hands! After holding the pistol, he began to press bullets into the magazine.
"Boom! Bang! Bang!..."
The gunshot sounded again soon, and it was very pleasant to hear.
After the addiction, the two left the shooting range together, and then completed the rest of the transaction.
After half an hour passed quickly, Ye Tian walked out from the bank located on another street smugly
He had only fifty dollars at noon, but at this time there was 6,000 dollars in his bag, the bank card balance was no longer zero, and he already had twenty thousand in deposit.
Life starts to become better again!
