Chương 896: Making a Deal

"So Auntie, what about the price?" Zhao Fei asked.

"My daughter thinks that it should be four dollars a pound. However, I feel that you and I are already old acquaintances and you're a young man who often takes care of me, so I discussed with my daughter about giving it to you at three dollars and fifty cents. What do you think?" Li Gui asked in a gentle manner.

Qiao Mei had taught her to say it in this way. Qiao Mei knew that Zhao Fei was an experienced merchant and would definitely bargain with Li Gui. If they lowered the price on their end first, Zhao Fei would feel too embarrassed to bargain with Li Gui anymore.

It happened exactly as Qiao Mei had expected. Zhao Fei was quite happy that Li Gui thought so highly of him, but three dollars and fifty cents a pound was still a little too much. If he accepted it, he would not be able to earn much money.
