Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 1952

Jiro's gaze flashed, and he looked at Wilbur. Jiro had raised the price on purpose thinking that Wilbur would haggle for sure, and the final price would definitely be much lower than a million dollars.

The truth was that Jiro had a bottom price in mind. The cauldron was finely crafted, but it was too small. Even four hundred dollars would be a pretty good price to sell it off it.

Wilbur accepting the million-dollar price tag told Jiro that Wilbur definitely had a special interest in the cauldron. Maybe the cauldron had a special value of sorts.

Regardless of what Wilbur saw in the cauldron, Jiro was a greedy man and his gaze flashed greedily. Naturally, he was not going to sell the cauldron off so easily now that he saw how interested Wilbur was.

Jiro got to his feet, pouring Wilbur a cup of tea while pushing the box back to himself. "Mister Penn, I think we could negotiate the price."

"What?"

Wilbur looked at Jiro, confused. "Didn't we just finish negotiating? You offered a million dollars yourself."

"That was the price for just now. The cauldron's price has now changed." Jiro took a deep breath. "I need to do a second check on the price."

"How dare you!"

"I hope you won't go back on your word this time, Mister Jiro."

Jiro smirked, knowing his plan had worked. "I think you can offer me a price since you're interested in buying the cauldron, Mister Penn, and then I'll give you an official offer after considering yours."

Wilbur knew this was Jiro trying to test his limits. After all, the cauldron would only be worth hundreds of thousands to others, and Jiro was trying to get the best deal he could.

"You sure are a collectible hunter, Mister Jiro. Fine, I'll tell you the highest price I'm willing to pay for the cauldron. Three million dollars. I'll pass if you offer me any more than that."
