Chapter 216 Buyer
Chapter 216 Buyer
Ever since He Zhilan bought the Qilin jade pendant and became the head of the He family, he has been trying his best to please Xu Youyou.
She also took out some of her personal collection of antiques and wanted to give them to Xu Youyou.
Xu Youyou felt that she should not accept any reward without doing anything, so she did not accept these gifts.
He Zhilan had no choice but to keep urging his sister He Zhiting to behave well and make Xu Youyou happy.
Now He Zhilan vaguely understands how to deal with Xu Youyou. Xu Youyou will not accept the treasures that are directly handed to her, but he can win Xu Youyou's favor by helping her find a more suitable owner for the antiques in her hands.
"Ms. Xu, the buyer I found for you really wants to collect Cheng Dawei's things. His grandfather is also a master of abacus. This time he wants to congratulate his grandfather on his 70th birthday." He Zhilan explained the reason carefully.
Xu Youyou nodded when she heard this. For antiques and cultural relics, the factors that affect their price are whether the material is precious and who the previous owner was.
Things used by the emperor must be more expensive than those used by ordinary people.
Although Cheng Dawei was born into a Huizhou merchant family, his status was not noble if you calculated carefully, but he was a master of abacus. It would be difficult to sell his things at a high price unless they met someone who truly loved them.
The buyer really wanted to buy it, so he booked a flight directly to Huangshan that day.
Xu Youyou just felt that this person seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was for a while.
Xu Fang, however, performed her assistant's job perfectly. She immediately approached Xu Youyou and said in a low voice, "Mr. Zhang is a returned Chinese. He has been praised by financial magazines as a young financial genius and has appeared on the cover of financial magazines several times."
Xu Youyou nodded and praised the other party as "young and promising".
Unexpectedly, the other party said directly: "Ms. Xu, Miao Zan, if we really talk about young and promising people, who can compare with you and Mr. Lu? When I was in the United States, I also heard people mention you. You have a sharp vision and are decisive in doing things."
Xu Youyou was stunned when she heard this, vaguely feeling that this person had something else in mind: "My reputation has spread abroad?"
Zhang Yunhai smiled and said, "You bought an ordinary stone sculpture from a private museum in the United States and shipped it thousands of miles back to China. Who would have thought that it actually contained a priceless imperial jade."
Xu Youyou's smile paused. Although what she did was not very secretive, not many people knew about it.
"Mr. Zhang is well-informed, which is admirable. I didn't know the news could spread across the ocean." Xu Youyou said.
Zhang Yunhai immediately explained, "Miss Xu, please don't misunderstand. It's a coincidence. On the day the jadeite museum was cutting the stone, one of the spectators was attending a banquet abroad. He mentioned this matter, and it turned out that someone at the banquet had also participated in the museum auction. After comparing the two, they discovered that this extremely valuable jade was imported from the United States."
Xu Youyou smiled and said, "I just said it casually and didn't think much about it. Mr. Zhang misunderstood."
Zhang Yunhai also laughed, but whether he believed Xu Youyou's words or not was a matter of opinion.
Xu Youyou originally had a good impression of this man, but after this incident, she couldn't help but feel a little wary. She didn't want to continue chatting with him and said directly, "Mr. Zhang, just name a price. If the price is right, I'll give you the abacus."
Zhang Yunhai said without hesitation, "One hundred million."
Xu Youyou looked at him deeply. It was completely different from the price she expected. Her psychological bottom price was actually between 10 million and 20 million. She didn't expect the other party to offer such a high price.
"Miss Xu, do you think the price is too low? That's right, such a good thing is extremely rare in the world, and this price is not worthy of it. How about this, I will add another 10 million?" Zhang Yunhai said with a smile.
Xu Fang was standing aside, listening to the two of them talking back and forth. Ten million yuan was as easy to them as a thousand yuan, so she thought the boss would agree.
Unexpectedly, Xu Youyou shook her head and said, "Twenty million."
"One hundred and twenty million? Sure!" Zhang Yunhai agreed casually.
Xu Youyou looked at him steadily and said, "Only 20 million is needed, not 100 million."
Xu Fang looked at her boss in disbelief. Although Zhang Yunhai in front of her was handsome, he was far inferior to Lu Jingyao. Xu Youyou had never given Lu Jingyao a low price, so why would she lower the price for this guy?
Xu Fang didn't understand.
Zhang Yunhai could take advantage, but he refused to accept it: "Ms. Xu, you are the seller, how can you bargain in the opposite direction? If you cut so much in one go, you will suffer a loss."
Xu Youyou said, "If I earn less money, I'll just make friends with Mr. Zhang. If Mr. Zhang doesn't agree, then I'll keep this thing in my own hands."
She refused to accept the high price no matter what, and Zhang Yunhai was afraid of going too far and alerting the enemy. In the end, he could only say, "Miss Xu has a generous personality. No wonder everyone likes to be friends with you."
Xu Youyou raised her eyebrows when she heard this and asked, "Who else likes me as a friend?"
Zhang Yunhai paused, then said, "Of course it's Miss He."
Xu Youyou didn't ask any further questions.
Zhang Yunhai, however, took the initiative and said, "I've also been watching the food videos of that blogger named Qingqing these past few days. I wonder if I'll have the honor of eating a meal cooked by her?"
Xu Youyou didn't even ask Qing Yatou, she just refused for her: "She's resting these two days and won't be cooking."
A dark light flashed in Zhang Yunhai's eyes, and his face was full of regret.
Xu Youyou was impatient to continue dealing with him, so she made up an excuse and signaled Xu Fang to send the guest away.
After everyone left, Xu Fang returned to Xu Youyou and belatedly asked, "Boss, you seem to dislike this Mr. Zhang?"
Xu Youyou didn't hide her attitude from those around her: "I instinctively dislike him when I see him."
Xu Fang quietly memorized this man's name.
Xu Youyou suddenly understood why she felt that Zhang Yunhai looked familiar. She had seen this person in her previous life!
At Gu’s house!
Zhang Yunhai and Gu Yuji had contacts, but she had only met them twice, so she didn't remember them clearly.
When she thought of this, she suddenly felt that the 20 million transferred to her by the other party was unlucky. She immediately took out her checkbook, and after a moment she tore off a newly written check and handed it to Xu Fang.
"Please donate this money for me to an organization that protects children in mountainous areas," Xu Youyou said.
Holding the check in her hand, Xu Fang once again felt that her boss was so rich that he donated the money he had just earned without any regret at all.
Zhang Yunhai sat in the car, looked back at the orphanage that was getting farther and farther away, his face suddenly darkened, and then he took out his cell phone and made a call.
"This woman is very vigilant. She is not as greedy as you say. She did not accept the money."
