Chapter 283: Price-cutting (2)

This person is not here to buy a property, he is here to cause trouble.

He stared with an incredulous look on his face.

In a very unordinary Mandarin accent, he said loudly, 'Brother, you're joking, this is Gangdong, not Henan.'

Gu Chen nodded, 'Of course I know, that's why I paid 15 million without a second thought.'

What he meant was, 15 million, and that was only because he had gritted his teeth and paid it. If he had to pay more, he would have paid even less.

Li Haitao took a deep breath, and it was obvious that he was getting angry.

'Brother, if that's the price, there's no point in talking, Lao Wang, show the guest out.'

That building was worth at least 20 million, and this person was actually asking for a discount of 5 million.

It's a waste of his time.

Gu Chen was not in a hurry. He smiled with a humble expression on his face. First, he waved at Manager Wang, indicating that he should sit down, and then he turned to Li Haitao and said, 'So, what is your psychological price?'

Li Haitao impatiently held up two white, thin fingers, 'That amount!'

Gu Chen understood.

It was 20 million.

It seems that 1.9 million is negotiable.

He pretended to be having difficulty with it, licked his lips, and then said after a long pause, 'How about this: 17 million, is 17 million OK?'

Li Haitao's head ached.

He looked helpless, 'Da Guo (Big Brother), this is selling a house, not selling vegetables, a few dollars short, this is millions, can you be serious?'

Gu Chen was waiting for him to say something, as long as he said something, even if it was just complaining, it would prove that there was hope.

But if you just send the guest away, you'll have most likely stepped on his bottom line.

He swallowed, picked up the teacup with a serious face, and gulped down the half cup of tea he had left.

Then he placed the cup heavily on the table.

With a composed face, as if he had made a big decision, he said, 'How about this: 18 million yuan, that's the limit I can give.'

'No way, at least 20 million!' Li Haitao leaned back against the sofa cushion behind him, his tone resolute.

He still needs the money to take revenge in Hong Kong.

Naturally, he is unwilling to accept less.

Besides, this young man is like squeezing toothpaste from a tube – if he squeezes a little harder, he will probably get some out.

Gu Chen is not discouraged and continues, 'How about this: 1.85 million. If that's possible, I'll pay right now; if not, then I guess we'll just have to meet again some other time.'

Although Gu Chen says this, he doesn't really want to meet again some other time.

His real thought was that it would be best to get it done in one go!

After all, he was limited in time.

After saying that, he picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Li Haitao, who was frowning, and Wang, the manager, who looked nervous.

Then he slowly sat down.

Looking at the two men, he had a bitter expression on his face.

'You can see that I'm a foreigner. To be honest, most of the 18.5 million was borrowed, and I really can't borrow any more. And just this afternoon, my daughter-in-law, who is far away from home, called to tell me that her father-in-law has stomach cancer.'

'You know what stomach cancer is like, it costs a lot of money. But what can you do, you still have to treat it, don't you? So 18.5 million is really the most I can afford. If that doesn't work, I'll just have to not buy it and go back to treat my father-in-law first.'

Gu Chen was very good at telling lies, and his words were sincere.

He almost moved himself.

Li Haitao had become accustomed to Gu Chen's constant price increases over the past half a day, so he was a little disappointed when she suddenly called a halt.

Although he could understand Gu Chen's father-in-law's lack of money due to stomach cancer,

he was not in the charity business. He was selling a property.

There were many people with cancer in the world, and he could not afford to give discounts to everyone.

To be honest, 18.5 million was 1.5 million short, which was the price of three 100-square-meter apartments in Huacheng.

This is no joke.

Li Haitao really felt that the price was a bit low.

He sighed and once again made sure.

'Really, you can't go for 20 million?'

To be honest, he really needed the money urgently.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have sold the building, and he would never have met Gu Chen today. He would have delayed for two or three days, to show that his building was in high demand and demand a higher price.

That way, he could earn a bit more.

Twenty million, I've already offered a low price, and if I lower it even more, I'll be laughed out of town.

Gu Chen sighed, put his hands up in the air, and pretended to be sad.

'Boss, it's not that I don't want it, it's that I really don't have the money. I have to return 18.5 million to sell the house, and right now I don't even know where the medical expenses for my father-in-law are coming from, so I really don't have the 20 million.'

Li Haitao blinked, 'Forget it then.'

He wanted to gamble, but he really wouldn't feel good about losing 1.5 million for nothing.

A businessman, a businessman, if you don't haggle, what's the point of being a businessman?

It looked like there was really no point in continuing the conversation.

Gu Chen used his trump card.

He sniffed, pretending to be sad.

'That's it then. Give me two more days. If that doesn't work, my mother-in-law has saved up some money over the years, so I'll go beg her for 300,000 to 500,000 yuan. If that's not enough, I'll have to sell the house my parents live in, and that should be enough.'

Li Haitao: '!!!'

I'm lost. This guy is even willing to risk his father-in-law's life to buy a house?

And he's going to lie to his mother-in-law to get money?

It's miserable to be his wife!

While scolding Gu Chen, I can't help but feel that his father-in-law is really pitiful.

'Brother, are you serious or not!' He was simply helpless.

Not to mention Li Haitao, even the manager Wang next to him couldn't help but shake his head.

'Brother, think about it, that's your father-in-law. Your wife will kill you if she finds out,'

Gu Chen wiped his face and frowned deeply.

'I really have no other choice. If there was even the slightest way, I wouldn't take my mother-in-law's money either.'

'Let's say, with an additional 400,000 yuan, can you sell the building? 1.89 million yuan. If you sell, I'll go raise the money right now, and we'll meet at a place tomorrow morning to hand over the money and the property ownership certificate.'

'If it still doesn't work, then I'm going home now. My wife and children are still at home waiting. I'll take the money and go back to treat my father-in-law. I won't think about coming to Huacheng again in the future, and I'll go back and live a good life.'

Listening to Gu Chen's words, Li Haitao understood a fact.

That is, Gu Chen really has no money left, and this is the highest price he can offer.

One million eight hundred and ninety thousand, he would lose one million one hundred thousand.

After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, 'In that case, one million nine hundred thousand, one million nine hundred thousand, we'll sign the contract tomorrow morning.'

Gu Chen had already said as much as he could, and it was indeed miserable enough. It was impossible for him to let go of one million five hundred thousand, but if he added another half a million, then it could be considered a sale.

Otherwise, if he missed out on Gu Chen, the next person to sell the house would be unknown for how long.

How many more days would he have to wait.

And the price offered may not necessarily be higher than that of Gu Chen.

Gu Chen secretly let out a sigh of relief when she heard the price of 19 million.

At the same time, she couldn't help but curse in her heart, 'What a scoundrel! After saying such things, he still has the nerve to add 100,000 yuan!'
