Be a legal businessman in Liyue!

Ordinary people may think that if you raise the price, I will just not drink it. It is not an essential thing anyway.

But in some circles.

The fact that you can get something that others can't is proof of your strength.

The rarer it is, the higher the price goes, the more face you gain.

It makes no difference to them whether the bottle is one hundred Moras or three hundred Moras.

But when the price of this thing rose to one thousand Mora or three thousand Mora, it became attractive to them.

You think they are being taken advantage of.

But this is just a way for them to show their financial strength.

Think about it, in your life, are there always a few relatives and friends who, when eating, take out some rare drinks or ingredients and say where they got them from?

They are the consumers of these goods which are worth more than their own value.

In other words, their social circles include consumers of these goods.

then,

The next morning, Wang Que had just gotten up when a maid in a skirt came knocking on the door, saying that there was a guest visiting.

Chapter 32 One Finger

The visitor's surname is Qian.

He is a distant relative of Mr. Qian.

In a big family, there are always relatives of one kind or another, and the distance between them actually exceeds the five generations.

But as long as you have ability, money, power and influence, your relationship with relatives will be maintained well.

Boss Qian is not a traditional Liyue merchant and does not participate in the transshipment and sale of goods.

His business is personal relationships.

Organize gatherings, connect relationships, and make connections.

He is more like the business brokers in modern society.

As a broker, the most important thing besides connections is to have real things, that is, things that support his face.

When Boss Qian visited his wealthy relative yesterday and heard that Wang Que had the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce's Mond wine list for the next two months, he knew his chance had come.

If he could get the order from Wang Que, he would definitely become famous in the circle.

For a broker, reputation is a resource.

Think about it, when someone needs help in the future, the first person they think of will definitely be the broker with a more famous reputation.

Rather than an unknown person.

So, even though Wang Que didn't show up yesterday, Boss Qian didn't give up.

Afraid of not meeting her again, he came to the hotel early this morning.

Although it sounds a bit embarrassing, it is not shameful to be honored in front of others and suffer behind their backs. It makes money.

...

In the small courtyard.

Wang Que made a cup of tea for Boss Qian.

"Boss Qian, have some tea."

Wang Que was very polite.

Boss Qian took it with both hands, did not drink it, and gently placed it on the stone table beside him.

"Boss Wang..."

Wang Que smiled and shook his head, interrupting, "I also know what Mr. Qian is here for, but Mr. Qian should have told you that this batch of wine is to be shipped abroad."

"Boss Qian is also a businessman and should know the importance of reputation."

In this era, doing business is all about credibility.

Just like Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, they would rather make less money from the wine bill than tear up the contract with Wang Que.

Even if you only have to pay double the deposit for breaking the contract, you can still make millions in profits.

Reputation is something that Liyue merchants value extremely.

Boss Qian smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Boss Wang is a man of integrity. I admire him. But then again, what is the purpose of doing business? Isn't it just Mora?"

"If you can't make more money from the orders, what else are you going to do?"

"Besides, the wine list you have is at its most valuable right now. In two months, the trade route might be open again, and you can purchase it at a cheaper price. Not only will you not breach the contract, you can even make more money."

Boss Qian is a broker and makes money in a shameless way.

If Wang Que refused, he would leave and he would not be able to make the money.

Wang Que smiled and shook his head: "Boss Qian, you're joking. There's a dragon plague in Mondstadt, and no one can guarantee when it will subside. If I sell the order now, what if the price is even higher?"

"No, no, Mondstadt is one of the Seven Kingdoms, protected by the Wind God. The Knights of Favonius are very powerful. They just can't catch the dragon for the time being. Once they react, we will definitely pacify it soon."

It’s not known whether Boss Qian has ever been to Mondstadt, but now that he’s talking about it, he sounds like he’s bragging about Mondstadt.

Then he changed the subject and looked at Wang Que sincerely.

"Boss Wang, this wine list is a good opportunity to make a move. Otherwise, if the price drops in a few days, you will end up losing money."

He acted like he was the king and needed the best: "You paid three times the price for the goods."

He is framing Wang Que. If Wang Que believes that the price will be reduced later, his willingness to ship will naturally become stronger.

Unfortunately, Wang Que still looked at him calmly with a polite smile on his face.

"Boss Qian, I don't mind losing money. What I care about is my reputation and goodwill." Wang Que said righteously.

Boss Qian didn't impress Wang Que, but he still didn't show any disappointment: "Yes, yes, in business, reputation is the most important thing."

"But this opportunity to make a fortune is right in front of you. Boss Wang, you're also a businessman, aren't you tempted?"

Broker, what you said is right, but I still want to advise you.

"Of course I am moved. Everyone likes to make money, but..." Wang Que was slightly moved, but still shook his head.

A hint of joy appeared in Boss Qian's eyes.

I'm not afraid of your rejection, I'm just afraid that you won't listen to a word I say.

As long as there is any hesitation, it is nothing more than a matter of price.

He smiled and said to Wang Que with a little more confidence, "Boss Wang, don't you want to hear my bid?"

Wang Que hesitated for a moment before nodding, "I'd like to hear more."

Boss Qian held out his hand and said, "Five million Mora. As far as I know, your order is worth three million Mora. I will pay five million to buy out your order."

"You don't have to do anything, and the profit is two million Mora."

Two million Mora...

Wang Que pursed his lips slightly, and after a while, he slowly shook his head: "Sorry, Boss Qian."

Boss Qian was stunned. Is this too little?

He looked at Wang Que with a hint of silence in his eyes.

Boss Wang looks young, but he is actually very ruthless. He can even bear the profit of two million Mora.

When he was Wang Que's age, he would not be able to resist taking action even if it was 20,000 Moras, let alone 2 million Moras.

"Haha, if you are not satisfied with the price, we can still negotiate it." Boss Qian continued to smile without any dissatisfaction.

Not to mention that even if the deal fails, there is still righteousness. If he gets angry when he is rejected, he will not be able to be a broker.

"Does Boss Wang have a target price?"

He gave the initiative to Wang Que.

Wang Que thought for a while before he slowly spoke: "To be honest with Boss Qian, I'm losing money on this business."

"I took the order from Fontaine. When I accepted the order, the market price of Dawn Wine in Liyue was only a little over a hundred Mora, so I offered Fontaine three hundred Mora."

"And now, the price of my order is 300 Mora. With this in and out, I don't make a single Mora profit, and I even have to pay for shipping and manpower."

“That’s why I would consider taking action.”

"But...if I violate the order, no matter what the reason, I will have to pay for this three million Mora order."

Having said this, Wang Que looked at Boss Qian.

Wang Que didn't need to say anything else.

Boss Qian's eyes flickered slightly: "I'll add another 500,000 Mora."

That is to say, 5.5 million Mora.

Wang Que smiled without saying anything and shook his head slightly.

Boss Qian's face darkened slightly. "May I ask how much the penalty is?"

"I received a deposit of 500,000 yuan and will pay five times the compensation." Wang Que said confidently.

In fact, he didn't have a shitty order. He just took advantage of the fact that the other party had no way to go to Fontainebleau to verify it.

Boss Qian narrowed his eyes slightly. A deposit of 500,000 yuan and five times the compensation would be 2.5 million yuan in liquidated damages.

No wonder Boss Wang is unwilling to take action.

Five and a half million Mora, minus the three million principal, the remaining two and a half million is only enough to cover losses.

It would be better to fulfill the order, lose money but gain credibility.

Boss Qian thought from the perspective of a Liyue businessman and finally understood Wang Que.

After thinking for a while, Boss Qian said solemnly, "Seven million Mora, how about it?"

A profit margin of one million and five hundred thousand.

Wang Que still shook his head.

This is a speculation, and the profit is quick and big money. Although the offer is 7 million, Wang Que can earn 4 million Mora.

But, he is greedy.

This is far from Wang Que's ideal offer.

"Huh... Boss Wang, please give me a quote and see if I can afford it." Boss Qian seemed a little discouraged.

But Wang Que knew that this was just an act.

He smiled and held up a finger.

Ten million Mora, ten times the original market price, more than three times his order price, this is his bottom line.

Chapter 33 Goodbye Ye Lan

"Ten million Mora!!!"

Boss Qian exclaimed in a low voice, and there was a hint of horror in his eyes when he looked at Wang Que.

He really didn't expect that Wang Que could be so cruel and greedy!

"The price is too high. I can't sell the goods after I get them."

He simply shook his head, indicating that Wang Que's price was unreasonable.

In fact, when he came here today, the price of drinks was already five times the usual price.

But it is still much lower than the ten times price Wang Que asked for.

Wang Que smiled and said, "Not really. Boss Qian, let's put it this way. Not to mention the next two months, even for a long time to come, the trade routes in Mondstadt won't improve."

"Hmm?" Boss Qian paused, a strange look in his eyes. "Boss Wang, do you have any inside information?"

Gossip, also known as secret intelligence, is the news that businessmen love and hate the most.
