"Let's do it, 400,000, are you considering it?"
Hearing this, a gentle smile appeared on Shen Dashan's face, and his expression was calm, as if he had expected Chen Yu to give such a bid.
He raised his hand and pointed to the quaint tea table not far away. His voice was cheerful and friendly, "My friend, if you talk about business, you will be a distinguished customer when you come to our store from afar. No matter how much you say, the store must be as friendly as a landlord!
"Come on, sit down and have a cup of hot tea first. Let's sit down and chat slowly, don't worry."
Chen Yu heard it and subconsciously turned his head to look at Pei Yuqin beside him. At this time, Pei Yuqin was focusing on the jewelry in the store, as if she was completely attracted by those exquisite objects.
But everything is a manifestation.
Pei Yuqin said that she always listened to the conversation between the two.
She noticed Chen Yu's gaze, raised her head gently, smiled and nodded at him, and her eyes conveyed the meaning of not having to worry about her and letting him talk about business with peace of mind.
Chen Yu felt warm in his heart, and then he responded to Shen Dashan with a smile: "Shopkeeper Chen is so kind, then I will be disrespectful. Please ask first."
The two walked towards the tea table one after another. The tea table was made of a whole red rosewood, retaining the natural texture and color of the log, and it was natural and simple. The thick tree roots turned into table legs, firmly supporting the tabletop, giving people a thick and strong feeling.
There is a complete set of tea sets on the table. The purple clay pot is round and quaint, the white porcelain cup is delicate and white, and the can of Dahongpao tea leaves next to it exudes a rich fragrance.
The faint fragrance of logs and tea scents around it blend together, creating a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere that makes people relax in an instant.
"The best Dahongpao, what a tea!" Chen Yu praised him very well.
As a famous Chinese tea, Dahongpao can be said to be famous. Many people mistakenly think that it is black tea because its name contains the word "red" and the brewed tea soup is reddish-brown.
In fact, it is not the case. Dahongpao belongs to oolong tea.
Oolong tea is between green tea and black tea, and it has both the fragrance of green tea and the mellowness of black tea.
Its production process is extremely complex. From picking to finished products, it needs to go through multiple processes such as withering, drying, shaking, finishing, rolling, and baking.
Each process requires extremely high skills and patience. Because of this, Dahongpao has become the best among tea and is highly praised by tea customers.
Shen Dashan is obviously a master who is well versed in tea ceremony.
He skillfully started to burn the tea set, and every step was meticulous.
The ironing pot, warming cup, placing tea, washing tea, the movements are smooth and elegant.
The posture of holding the pot is extremely standard, and when dividing the tea, you can handle it just right. The tea soup is like a trickle, slowly poured into the cup without a drop splashing or overflowing.
Chen Yu looked at Shen Dashan's actions quietly and couldn't help but nod in his heart.
If he hadn't had such patience!
In Shen Yu's opinion, drinking tea is just to relieve thirst and refresh your mind. Just drink it, so there are no need for so many complicated matters!
But he also knew very well that tea ceremony is not only a process of making tea, but also a manifestation of a state of mind.
Take Shen Dashan as an example. His calmness and concentration and dedication when making tea cannot be achieved overnight. This means that this person is a very patient person. It is unlikely that he can easily gain advantage when talking about business here.
After the tea was brewed, Shen Dashan handed the tea in front of Chen Yu in both hands and smiled and said, "My friend, please use tea."
Chen Yu quickly took the teacup with both hands and first sniffed a sip of the tea fragrance.
The tea fragrance is rich and refreshing.
Then, he took a sip slowly. The tea soup was smooth in the mouth, the taste was mellow, and the sweetness was long and sweet. It seemed to be wrapped in a warm current between his lips and teeth, which was intoxicating.
Chen Yu couldn't help but praise: "This tea should be the best in Dahongpao!"
Shen Dashan nodded and asked back, "Young friend knows tea, too?"
Chen Yu smiled, "The timing of picking Dahongpao is extremely particular. You cannot pick tender leaves when you are young, otherwise there will be a hint of bitterness. But you cannot be too old, otherwise the tea taste will become weak.
"This tea is top-notch in terms of aroma and taste. It must be very attentive since I picked it, and then every step is handled with great care. To be honest, I haven't drunk such a high-quality Dahongpao for a long time."
Upon hearing this, Shen Dashan showed a satisfied smile on his face, "This tea is the old tea I have treasured for many years. I am reluctant to take it out to drink it on weekdays. Today I have a destiny to have a friend, so I took it out and shared it."
Chen Yu nodded and thanked him, but he knew in his heart that Shen Dashan's move was not just a simple entertainment, but also a price-negotiation strategy.
Through this cup of tea, Shen Dashan cleverly narrowed the distance between each other and created a relatively relaxed and harmonious atmosphere for the subsequent competition.
The fragrance of tea rose and filled the air, and the topic gradually deepened.
The two of them were drinking tea while talking about antiques.
From calligraphy and painting to calligraphy and posts, from jade to porcelain, this chat lasted nearly twenty minutes.
Shen Dashan is obviously a master of chatting and can easily talk about all kinds of topics.
But Chen Yu is not afraid.
He has been practicing with his grandfather for many years, and those old friends in the Shenlou can be said to be all thousand-year-old old foxes.
When chatting, especially when talking about things in the antique circle, Chen Yu really has seen too much!
No matter how you say or answer, you are all subconscious and don’t need to waste your brain!
"My friend, 1.1 million, then I'll ask you to pick an antique in the store that is no less than 100,000 yuan. How do you think?" After three rounds of tea, Shen Dashan put down the tea cup and gave a new price.
Chen Yu also gently put down the teacup in his hand and looked up at Shen Dashan. His tone was extremely calm, "Shopkeeper Chen, to be honest, I really like this painting! And I can also see your sincerity.
"But buying and selling antiques must be within the scope that both parties can accept. You will not sell them if you lose money, and you will not buy them even if you have too high a premium!"
Speaking of this, Chen Yu paused for a moment, adjusted his thoughts and continued, "I can't drink your good tea in vain. Let's do this, I'll add another 100,000 and give you 500,000."
"I am really sincere in this price. You also know that the market conditions in the antique market are here, but this type of Qing Dynasty calligraphy and painting with signature Yuan Jiang is likely to be a fake, and it is not worth the price of 500,000 in terms of market conditions.
"Even the authentic works of some second- and third-rate painters of the Qing Dynasty may not be able to be sold at this price."
After saying that, he leaned forward slightly, his eyes locked Shen Dashan's eyes tightly, "Shopkeeper Chen, I really want to take this painting away. If 500,000 is not enough, then I can only bear the pain of giving up. I must be very regretful, but there is nothing I can do!"
Chen Yu's voice was not high, but it exuded a unique smell. When he heard it in others' ears, it seemed that this was his last trump card.
Shen Dashan fell into a brief silence.
His eyes stared at the white porcelain teacup in front of him, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
After a while, he slowly spoke: "My friend, since you are so sincere, I will no longer beat around the bush. The owner of this painting gave the store a minimum price of 750,000 yuan. According to the old rules of the antiques store, we will help sell it on behalf of others, and we will have to add another handling fee of 20,000 to 30,000 or even 50,000 or 60,000 yuan."
Speaking of this, Shen Dashan drank the cup of tea in one go, "However, for the sake of your relationship, I decided to make an exception for my friend and sell it to you at a minimum price of 750,000, without adding a penny!"
When Chen Yu heard this, a big rock in his heart finally landed on the ground.
Chapter completed!
