Reincarnation in the 60s: My Spatial Supermarket Brings Forth Wealth-Chapter 282: Doing Business

"Yes!" The little girl’s eyes were full of confidence; she already had several plans in mind.

"Alright! I’ll give you two days! Go ahead!" Lin Xue handed the items to Lin Xia and waved her hand.

"Xiao Xia, second sister wants to buy some!" Lin Yun quickly grabbed Lin Xia’s hand, preventing her from leaving.

"Two bucks each! How many do you want?" Lin Xia said with a serious face, holding up two fingers.

"What did you say? Two bucks? That expensive? Big sister only pays fifty cents for them!" Lin Yun asked incredulously, eyes wide open.

"Didn’t big sister say it? I can set my own price! I’m selling for two bucks each! Do you want it or not? If not, I’m leaving!" Lin Xia, with the attitude that good things sell themselves easily, made Lin Yun stomp her foot.

"Big sister, look at her!" Lin Yun eventually complained.

"Xiao Xia, don’t do business with your second sister! Quickly get ready to go out!" Lin Xue laughed. This third sister really has the makings of a merchant, doing business the right way.

"But... I still want it..." Lin Yun pouted a bit, feeling reluctant after hearing what big sister said.

"I have them here, I’ll give them to you at cost price!" Lin Xue nodded.

"Big sister, that’s breaking the rules, you’re blocking my income!" Lin Xia was displeased.

"Hurry up and go, stop talking back! Do this task well, and there will be more tasks for you next time!" Lin Xue waved with a smile.

Only to see Lin Xia not heading out, but instead going up the stairs with a stomp.

"Why is Xiao Xia going upstairs? She only has two days, isn’t she hurrying out?" Lin Yun stared blankly at Lin Xia running upstairs, puzzled.

But soon she got her answer. Lin Xia came running down not long after going up. At this time, she had changed into a light green winter outfit designed by Lin Yun for her. Her hair was neatly combed in a ladylike manner, short hair adorned with a matching hairpin, making her look refreshing and radiant.

"Xiao Xia, you look so pretty dressed like this!" Lin Yun was momentarily spellbound.

"It’s because your clothes design is beautiful!" Lin Xia waved her hand, confident about her appearance, but she knew her personality paired with her looks still wasn’t as appealing as second sister’s.

"Our Xiao Xia is beautiful dressed like this! Big sister has faith in you! Off you go now!" Lin Xue nodded.

Their parents were good-looking, so the kids didn’t turn out bad either; they were all handsome and pretty.

Lin Xia waved goodbye, turned, and headed out with twenty hairpins and twenty hair ties.

It was a day off today, but there were still people at school because many boarding students didn’t go home and just stayed in the dorms or went out for a stroll.

However, she didn’t plan to sell at school because those who stayed in the dorms typically didn’t have money to spend, and those from less wealthy families certainly couldn’t afford hairpins for two bucks each. The most they used were the ones costing ten cents for two hair ties.

Hence, her first stop was the department store!

Exactly, the department store. She walked in confidently without taking the hairpins out, just carrying them in hand. By the time she came out, she had switched the hairpins and hair ties into a bag, and now she was carrying a very nice handbag, which her big sister had brought back for them.

On the first floor, there was a long queue. She was curious; she had been here several times and never seen a situation like this before. Why were there so many people queuing today? Was there something good?

Thinking this, she walked forward but found she had to go a long way to reach the front of the line. Considering this, she decided to go see what was being sold in the front.

As she went forward, suddenly a woman’s voice sounded beside her.

"Hey, comrade! Won’t you queue up properly?" The voice was angry.

Lin Xia turned her head in response and saw a well-dressed woman, who seemed to come from a well-off family, looking at her unpleasantly.

"Comrade, I’m not buying, nor cutting in line, just going to the front to see what’s being sold. Don’t be so angry!" Lin Xia said with a smile, lightly.

"You don’t know what’s being sold at the front?" The woman asked, looking at the hairpin on her head without concealing her admiration.

Lin Xia nodded and was about to leave when the woman grabbed her hand.

"Comrade, your hairpin is quite pretty. Where did you buy it?"

Lin Xia was thrilled inside, her first tactic had succeeded, the fish was on the hook.

"A relative of ours bought it for me in the Capital City! Isn’t it pretty?" Lin Xia boasted, raising her chin high, making the woman like it even more.

"Come over! You can stand in front of me. I’ll buy one less, so it won’t be considered cutting in line! They’re selling new snacks up front; they smell so good, don’t you want to buy one to taste?"

The person who was just angrily saying not to cut in line was now actively inviting her to cut in line.

"But... isn’t that a problem? Cutting in line isn’t good, and the people behind..." Lin Xia looked at the people behind the woman, finding that they were all women, none of them blinking as they stared at her.

"Ladies, is it alright to have this young beauty cut in line?" The woman turned her head, asking those behind her.

"Sure, sure, what’s the big deal? Come over, come over!" The woman behind in her thirties enthusiastically waved her over.

And then the few women behind also warmly agreed, their eyes fixed on the hairpin on Lin Xia’s head, not moving away.

However, there were quite a few people in the department store today, and even more going upstairs, so the commotion was only known to these women around, nobody else paid attention.

"Thank you, beauties!" Lin Xia giggled as she stood behind the woman.

"Sister, your hairpin is really pretty, can I try it on?" Once Lin Xia came over, the woman couldn’t wait to voice her thoughts.

She allowed her to cut in line just for the hairpin, and now she had to give it a try.

"Alright... you’ve let me cut in line, I can’t deny you this favor!" Lin Xia said, carefully taking off the hairpin, treating it like a rare treasure, "I have a little mirror here, take a look. Your long hair will surely look better with it!"

Saying this, she started rummaging in her bag for a mirror, but accidentally... the bag fell upside down on the ground.

The contents spilled out, a bunch of hairpins and hair ties of various colors dropped out.

Lin Xia pretended to be anxious as she picked up the things on the ground, all the while saying, "This is terrible, oh no, what if they’re ruined?"

"This... wow, so many hairpins, are these hair ties? Are they made of satin? These patterns are so pretty!" The woman forgot she wanted to try the hairpin, bent down to help pick up the items, constantly complimenting them.

The women in front and behind all looked over, eyes filled with surprise and delight.

Soon, Lin Xia anxiously picked up the hairpins and put them back in the bag, handing the little mirror she specifically brought to the woman.

"Sister, didn’t you want to try it out? Here’s the mirror, take a look!"

Speaking, she gazed at the hairpin she wore with a somewhat reluctant look, making the woman crave the hairpin even more.

The woman accepted the little mirror from Lin Xia’s hand and quickly put on the hairpin, looking at herself from various angles.
