My courtyard shelter

Chapter 191 Gift

I came to Haixing Plaza again. This time there were many more customers in the mall, and most of the businesses were open, making it very lively.

Xu Dong started shopping from the first floor.

After ten minutes of shopping, he found a very suitable gift, which was an astronomical telescope.

"Boss, how much does this astronomical telescope cost?" Xu Dong asked.

The store owner directly compared his four fingers: "The price is 40,000 yuan. This is a professional-level astronomical telescope with automatic star finding function. It is definitely worth the money."

"It's too expensive. Can it be cheaper?" Xu Dong quickly countered.

In today's world, not everything can double in value, especially for niche items like astronomical telescopes, if it can maintain its original price, it's considered good.

"Okay, thirty-eight thousand, this is the lowest price." The store owner looked like he was in pain.

When Xu Dong saw that the shop owner was not sincere, he turned around and wanted to leave.

The other party was anxious and grabbed Xu Dong.

The shop owner spent more than 10,000 yuan to get this astronomical telescope back. I thought I was getting a big deal, but I didn't expect to just throw it away.

These days, no one even has enough to eat. Who still has the energy to look at the stars? We can only blame society for changing too fast, and the times have changed.

"Brother, don't leave in a hurry. We can negotiate the price."

Xu Dong waved his hand: "Then just tell me the lowest price. If it works, I will buy it. If it doesn't work, forget it. I don't have to buy it."

He just searched the Internet for this thing. For this model, it only cost over 30,000 yuan before the Big Flare. It makes no sense that the price has increased now.

"Fifteen thousand yuan...take it!"

The shop owner looked away. This was really the low price in his mind.

Xu Dong was also very straightforward: "Pretend it for me!"

"Please wait!"

The store owner showed a smile that was uglier than crying. He didn't make any money on this order at all. Failure to make money would mean a big loss.

After scanning the QR code to pay, Xu Dong took the box. The items were good and he could take the children to watch the stars together. It was truly educational and entertaining.

After buying the astronomical telescope, Xu Dong quickly fell in love with a beautiful conch, thirty centimeters long.

This is dozens of times bigger than the conch that Coco and the others picked up during their last spring outing. The color and pattern are also very beautiful. The little cotton-padded jackets will definitely like it very much.

Xu Dong thought happily, and finally became more and more satisfied:

"Boss, what kind of conch is this?"

The boss took a look at Xu Dong. Perhaps he saw that the person in his previous life was a rich man, and then he replied slowly:

"This is the Phoenix-tailed snail, one of the four most famous snails in the world. The price is not cheap. Are you sure you want to buy it?"

Xu Dong nodded: "How much?"

"A snail of this size could not have been taken away for less than 300,000 yuan in the past two years. Now it is not as valuable as before. You can give me 50,000 yuan!" the boss sighed.

Xu Dong was not stupid and immediately checked online.

The boss was generally right, but the collecting industry was a very deep one, and he wasn't 100% sure, so he tentatively said:

"Can it be cheaper?"

"No, this is already the lowest price." The boss shook his head first, and then changed the topic: "But I can give you a pair of prince snails, which is equivalent to giving you a discount of 5,000 yuan."

Xu Dong was satisfied now and paid the money neatly, as if he had gotten a big deal.

After collecting the conches, the gifts for the baby girls are complete, and then only the gifts for my wife and parents are left.

Xu's father and Xu's mother are easy to solve.

Xu Ma likes gold jewelry, so Xu Dong bought her a large gold bar, weighing a full pound.

Father Xu has recently fallen in love with arty style. Xu Dong is going to give him a tea set, which costs several thousand yuan.

As for the gift for his wife, this requires more thought. Xu Dong continued to wander around the mall.

After choosing and choosing, I finally settled on an jade comb.

The comb does not need to be worn on the body, there is no fear of falling, and the comb is used every day. Xu Dong feels that there is no more suitable gift than this.

This is a jewelry store, and the brand is quite famous, so you don’t have to worry about buying fake jadeite.

"Waiter, what's the price of this comb?" Xu Dong pointed to the bottom of the counter and asked, mainly because the price tag was too small and could not be seen clearly.

The waiter was very enthusiastic and helped to take out the jade comb, "Hello, sir, this jade comb is priced at 80,000 yuan. We are currently doing a promotion and can give you a 20% discount on the original price."

Xu Dong picked up the jade comb and looked at it. At least from the outside, the comb was quite beautiful, especially the floating flowers inside, which looked like flowing clouds and flowing water.

"How much is it after the 20% discount?"

The waiter clicked on the calculator and immediately replied: "I'll erase the fractions for you, the total is 230,000."

"Can it be cheaper?" Xu Dong counter-offered again. This habit of counter-offering was developed in his previous life.

"Then wait a moment, I'll ask our manager."

Less than five minutes later, the waitress came back with a smile on her face:

"Sir, our manager said that if you sincerely buy it, we are willing to give you another 10,000 yuan off. This is really the lowest price."

"That's it. Is this jade true?"

"You can rest assured that we have the appraisal certificate. Our boss will not joke about his future. I believe you also know how strict the industrial and commercial authorities are now."

Xu Dong nodded.

The waitress was still indifferent when seeing the customer, so she could only offer her trump card:

"Sir, if you buy it today, we will also give you a jade bracelet worth 20,000 yuan."

"Okay, I'll buy it."

The waitress finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was lucky today. Not only did she exceed her sales target this month, but she also got a considerable commission. She was so happy.

After getting the jade comb and jade bracelet, Xu Dong turned around and went to the pawnshop opposite, which is the most authoritative appraisal agency.

Ten minutes later, he walked out of the pawnshop with a smile on his face. The jade was real. Putting aside the pawnshop's deliberate price reduction, the actual price was not much different, and the result was not bad.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Dong took the high-speed train back to Yanjing. Three and a half hours later, he arrived at Yanjing Station.

Without telling his family, Xu Dong planned to give his family a surprise.

After leaving the station, he immediately took a taxi. Half an hour later, he finally got home.

After arriving home, Xu Dong put down his luggage and turned to the parking lot. The dried sea cucumber was still at Lao Fang's place, and he wanted to take it back as soon as possible.

He didn't even send this batch of sea cucumbers to Aunt Zhang's family, mainly because he promised Director Yu to keep it secret and be trustworthy.

In addition, sea cucumbers don't have much fat, and for ordinary people, they are far less affordable than food.

Besides, this batch of sea cucumbers only weighs 100 kilograms, which is barely enough for his family to eat, so he doesn't plan to send it to anyone. The best way is to tell no one.
