Master Tang frowned.
Indeed, just as Su Yunjin had predicted, Master Tang was dissatisfied with the amount being too little, “Young Master Gu, you and your wife have only reduced the price by twenty taels, but the price is still too expensive, it must be reduced further.”
Master Tang still claimed it was expensive.
Although his wife had said they could give Master Tang another thirty taels off, Gu Ya hadn’t agreed readily. If he agreed too readily now, Master Tang might continue to push them to reduce the price even further. Gu Ya decided to stonewall Master Tang for a while longer before agreeing to take off another thirty taels.
With a reduction of fifty taels in total, Master Tang wouldn’t be in a position to ask for further reductions.
After taking a sip of tea, Gu Ya answered unhurriedly, “Master Tang, you visited our tavern today. As a shrewd man, you know the location and size of our tavern are quite favorable. Two thousand two hundred taels is fully justified for our tavern. Today, my wife and I have already reduced the price by twenty taels for you, Master Tang; this price isn’t expensive anymore.”
Before visiting, Master Tang had made up his mind to get Su Yunjin to reduce the price by another hundred taels, bringing the purchase price down to two thousand one hundred taels. But now, Su Yunjin had only reduced it by twenty taels.
Of course, Master Tang was unwilling to pay as such.
“No, Young Master Gu, you need to decrease it a bit more for me to buy it; otherwise, the price you’re asking is too high. I can’t afford it,” he said.
Master Tang shook his head repeatedly.
Su Yunjin said, “Master Tang, my husband is right. Our tavern is in a good location and it’s newly renovated, spacious, and spread over three floors. Selling it to you for two thousand two hundred taels; you’re not at a loss.”
Master Tang was quite the cunning old fox himself.
He seized the shortcomings of the tavern to bargain hard.
“Madam Su, Young Master Gu, your tavern is good; I concede that point. However, there are several other taverns close by ours. The other two smaller taverns can be ignored, but the Hongyun Building across the street is a big tavern. Buying your tavern when there are so many other taverns around competing for business is not easy for me,” he argued.
At this point, Su Yunjin and Gu Ya looked at each other. Su Yunjin feigned a troubled expression, “So be it, Master Tang. We’re all straightforward people here. Let’s settle this at once. I’ll take off another fifty taels, making it two thousand one hundred fifty taels. If you think it’s worth that price, my husband and I will sell it to you right now. If you don’t, Master Tang, we can’t reduce it any further.”
Su Yunjin threw out her lowest price.
Master Tang, being astute, sensed Su Yunjin wouldn’t budge further. Pondering that getting her to reduce by fifty taels was quite good, he decided to buy it for two thousand one hundred fifty taels.
He found it within an acceptable range.
After mulling it over,
Master Tang nodded in agreement, “Alright, Madam Su, let’s do as you said. Two thousand one hundred fifty taels, I will buy your tavern.”
Su Yunjin was delighted.
Master Tang’s quick agreement was beyond her expectation.
Su Yunjin had thought it would take a lot more effort to get him to agree to buy their tavern, but Master Tang agreed so readily.
Master Tang agreeing to buy their tavern was good news.
Su Yunjin was very pleased. Once the price was settled, Gu Ya began to draw up the sales contract with Master Tang. After Master Tang paid the money, Su Yunjin was to hand over the deed to the property.
