When Yan Xiaokai pulled Pang Tong to the door, he asked, "Boss Pang, how is the business going?"

Pang Tong said: "Thanks to the care of some friends, I can still have a meal."

Yan Xiaokai said: "What about the current market for mahogany?"

Pang Tong said: "At the beginning of the year, it was a bit sluggish, but it was barely a stage of steady growth."

Yan Xiaokai nodded, and asked again: "What about the price of mahogany?"

Pang Tong was a little puzzled, what was the reason for asking this guy?Somewhat vigilant in my heart, I said: "I basically only make a few types of mahogany, and my understanding is very limited!"

Yan Xiaokai smiled faintly, "Then tell me about the prices of the kinds you often make?"

Pang Tong pondered for a while and said: "I import a lot of logs. The domestic only ebony from the Northeast, the price is about [-] per ton. The price of Burmese rosewood is about [-]. Laotian rosewood is [-]. About [-] Dalbergia dentata from South America..."

Yan Xiaokai listened silently, waved his hands halfway through and said, "These are all cheap, are there any more expensive ones?"

Pang Tong said: "There are also expensive ones, such as the Cochin Dalbergia in Southeast Asia, which costs 15 tons, and the Lushi black Dalbergia from Madagascar, which costs [-] per ton..."

Yan Xiaokai interrupted him again, "What about more expensive ones?"

Pang Tong frowned, "The more expensive ones are Indian sandalwood and red sandalwood. The price has gone up to more than 100 million per ton, and Vietnam's Yue Xiangzhi, which is 500 million per ton."

Yan Xiaokai nodded, but didn't say anything.

Pang Tong was baffled, "Young Master Yan, what are you asking these for? Are you also in the mahogany business?"

Yan Xiao smiled and shook his head, "I don't do the mahogany business, but I have a mahogany tree that I want to sell to you now!"

Pang Tong said, "Oh, where is it?"

Yan Xiaokai pointed to the ground, "Hey, isn't this the one you stepped on?"

Pang Tong looked down and couldn't help being stunned, because he was stepping on a big tree with a diameter of about [-] centimeters and a length of five feet. He also reached out to touch it, sniffed it with his nose, and finally his face changed suddenly, and his hands couldn't help trembling.

After a while, he stood up from the ground, but his shocked face had returned to normal, and he asked with a light smile, "Young Master Yan, let's make a price."

Yan Xiaokai asked lightly: "Boss Pang is an expert, so the price is suitable for you!!"

Pang Tong pondered for a while, looked at Yan Xiaokai again, and said, "50!"

Zheng Peilin, Uncle Cheng and a group of workers who heard their conversation nearby couldn't help being startled, because no one would have imagined that an unremarkable tree would be worth so much money.

Zheng Peilin also had a look of shame on her face, because she just said that the wood was reserved for Yan Xiaokai to make a coffin.

A coffin worth 50 yuan, I'm afraid she won't be so lucky in a hundred years, right?

However, what everyone never expected was that after hearing Pang Tong's quotation, Yan Xiaokai waved his hand without thinking: "I'm sorry, Boss Pang, please go back!"

Although Pang Tong's expression remained the same, he secretly cried out in his heart that he might have met an expert this time!But he still pretended to be calm and said: "Young Master Yan, my price is already very real..."

Yan Xiaokai interrupted him with a sneer: "Really? Boss Pang, you said that the price you offered is the most reasonable, so why don't I call all the bosses of mahogany furniture in Haiyuan City and let them see your offer?" Is the price the most realistic?"

Pang Tong's face turned pale, and he said awkwardly: "Well, this...maybe I missed it, but fortunately, I brought the master craftsman from my furniture factory, and I will let them take a look."

After that, he winked at the few people he brought.

A few people understood, and hurried forward to study the big tree that had just been cut down.

Not long after, an older master stood up, walked up to Pang Tong, and whispered something in a low voice.

Pang Tong nodded slightly after listening, and then walked over to Yan Xiaokai with an apologetic smile and said: "Young Master Yan, my master has already seen your tree, and it is indeed Qinglongmu. If this tree comes from Laos, Myanmar, or Vietnam, it is worth the old money, at least it can be sold for 600 million, but I know that you just cut this tree from this yard, and the local green dragon wood, In the entire Haiyuan City, apart from me, no one would dare to ask for it, even if they wanted it, it would be impossible to give you a big price, look, this hollow wood..."

Yan Xiaokai waved his hand and stopped his words, "Boss Pang, you don't need to talk so much, just talk about the price!"

Pang Tong pondered for a moment before saying, "I can only give you 120 million yuan at most for this tree."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, because no one expected to let the masters see that there was an extra 70 out of thin air.

What's even more unexpected is that even though Pang Tong quoted such a terrible price, Yan Xiaokai still didn't even think about it: "Boss Pang, please go back! I'll let others take a look at this wood. Otherwise, as my classmate Zheng said, keep it as a coffin for yourself."

After hearing this, Zheng Peilin blushed and stared at him resentfully.

Pang Tong was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Young Master Yan, you have something to say, you have something to say."

Yan Xiaokai said angrily: "Boss Pang, what else do we have to say? Since I dare to work for Uncle Cheng to call you here, it proves that I am not a layman, but you just want to talk to me in layman's terms, what are you talking about?" This tree is hollow, the so-called ten sandalwood nine empty, ten sandalwood nine empty, there are so many sandalwoods in your furniture factory, why don't you find one that is not hollow? And since you are the leader of the mahogany furniture industry, You should also know what kind of green dragon wood this is, right? It is called Jinxing red sandalwood, right? It belongs to the best kind of green dragon wood, right! This kind of tree was extremely rare in ancient times, no matter where it is produced now Where, it is still extremely precious, and, do you know what the beds of the emperors and concubines of the Tang Dynasty were made of? That is this kind of gold star red sandalwood!"

Pang Tong was told that his face turned red and white, which was extremely exciting and beautiful.In fact, when he squatted down just now, he saw a little bit of Venus faintly visible in the flat cut of the tree root, with a faint scent of agarwood, and immediately knew that it was a red sandalwood, and it was an extremely precious Venus red sandalwood.

However, as a businessman, he is naturally very treacherous. He quoted such a low price because he bullied Yan Xiaokai, who is only a young man in his early twenties, thinking that although he knew it was red sandalwood, he didn't know it was Venus red sandalwood. , I reported a low price with the intention of picking up leaks, but I didn't expect that he was not only an expert, but also a senior expert. He even knew exactly what kind of wood the ancient dragon bed was made of!

Seeing Yan Xiaokai showing off the guests, Pang Tong was very embarrassed, and his voice lowered, "Young Master Yan, I admit that I was sorry just now, but you have to admit some facts. Venus red sandalwood is good, but it does come from the local area, so the price must be discounted. In addition, although it weighs several tons, it is still raw and contains a lot of water. After drying, the weight must be greatly reduced. If If you say by weight..."

Yan Xiaokai interrupted him again, "Boss Pang, I didn't say I would weigh the weight with you, I just said sell the whole tree, and you can give me a real price."

"This..." Pang Tong hesitated for a moment, then whispered to another man in a suit, and then said to Yan Xiao: "Young Master Yan, I discussed it with my manager and I will give you 200 million. This is what we can do." The highest price is the highest price, and it really can’t be higher. You know that we have to take a huge risk to buy your wood, and if I want to make this wood into furniture, it will only sell for a little more than 200, just Earn a little manual fee! Look..."

An unremarkable broken tree changed from 50 to 120 million, and 120 million to 200 million. The people around were all dumbfounded, staring blankly at the two people who were bargaining.

However, no one expected that Yan Xiaokai would still say, "Not for sale!"

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Pang Tong, even Zheng Peilin became anxious, stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve and said in a low voice, "Hey, they have paid 200 million yuan, why don't you sell it? Is it true? Will you keep it as a coffin?"

Yan Xiaokai also whispered: "What are you in a hurry for?"

Zheng Peilin stomped her feet angrily and said, "What's the rush? If they don't want yours after a while, you'll know what's going on."

Yan Xiaokai smiled lightly and said, "How is it possible? We are the emperor's daughters now, and we worry about everything except marriage. This Pang can't afford the money, and there will always be someone who can afford it."

Zheng Peilin froze for a moment, lowered her voice and asked, "This tree is really so valuable."

Yan Xiaokai almost didn't roll his eyes, "If it were worthless, would he pay such a high price? He's not a fool!"

Zheng Peilin was speechless.

On the other side, Pang Tong and his manager were also muttering non-stop, sighing for a while, shaking their heads for a while, and the discussion was fruitless for a while, so they could only ask Zheng Peilin's housekeeper for help, "Old Cheng, everyone is a friend, can you say something for me?" !"

Uncle Cheng said in embarrassment: "Old Pang, I'm really sorry. If this tree is my lady, I can still say something for you, but it belongs to the young master of the Yan family. I just met him today. I really can't help it." .”

Pang Tong had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to Yan Xiaokai, and asked, "Young Master Yan, why don't you offer me a price? I really want this Venus red sandalwood."

Yan Xiaokai thought for a while, then raised his hand, spread out his five fingers and said, "One price, 400 million."

Pang Tong let out a "suck", as if he had a toothache, he waved his hands repeatedly and said, "It's too expensive, it's too expensive, I can't afford it, I can't afford it."

Yan Xiaokai said: "Since I can't afford it, there's nothing I can do. I have no choice but to find another buyer."

Pang Tong said pitifully: "Young Master Yan, why don't you reduce it a little, the price is too harsh."

Yan Xiaokai shook his head, "It can't be reduced, this is the real price, this tree is worth this price, without this price, I am really sorry for it. Boss Pang, please!"
