Spatial Peasant Girl: These Mad Darlings Are Delicate and Gullible-Chapter 32
Chapter 32
The female shopkeeper’s surname was Liu. She was 32 years old this year and had long passed the age of being called Sister by others. However, it did not stop her from feeling sweet from being called by Xiaoxiao. Moreover, although this girl was thin and small, her eyes were clear and beautiful. When Xiaoxiao looked at her, there was an inexplicable sense of sincerity. She could not help but scratch Xiaoxiao’s nose. “Why are you calling me Sister? Call me Shopkeeper or Aunt.”
She looked at the bag in Xiaoxiao’s arms. “What kind of embroidery is it? Let me take a look. Let me make it clear first. If the embroidery isn’t good, I won’t accept it.” No matter how pleasing she looked to this girl, she had to distinguish between public and private matters. If she could coax her into paying with just a few flattery words, how would the Ruyi Clothing Shop be?
Just now, she had seen what was in the bag and guessed their intentions. Otherwise, she won’t let unrelated people hear about the negotiation.
Xiaoxiao immediately opened the bag and continued, “Don’t worry, Pretty Sister. My mom’s embroidery skills are top-notch. The rarest thing is that not only is she good at embroidery, but she’s also very serious. No matter how difficult it is, she’s very careful with every piece of embroidery and definitely won’t do it randomly!”
Shopkeeper Liu smiled as she listened, but she still planned to judge for herself. The bag was opened layer by layer and placed neatly. She immediately approved the embroidery after Xiaoxiao separated it with a fresh cotton cloth. It seemed that this girl was not bragging. At least the embroidery maiden was attentive.
The shop assistant was puzzled. In the past, the shopkeeper would only personally inspect embroidery items worth more than five taels of silver. How many were there?
Shopkeeper Liu did not care what the shop assistant thought. She watched as the sweet-talking girl took out the embroidery products individually and asked her, “What price do you want?”
Without even blinking, Xiaoxiao said, “Fifteen copper coins per piece.”
Not to mention the people in the cloth shop, even Ning Dalang, could not help but look at her.
Before Shopkeeper Liu could speak, the shop assistant had already spoken first. “Miss, you’re asking for an exorbitant price. Didn’t you hear we bought the embroidery with ten copper coins just now? We’re even acquaintances.”
Xiaoxiao looked at her. “But the quality of those embroideries is uneven. You’re charging an average price for these ten copper coins. These are all top-notch. There are eight pieces, and the embroidery is all of the four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum. The meaning is good, and the stitches are exquisite. It’s worth fifteen copper coins!”
Xiaoxiao was still praising the embroideries. However, as a businessman, Shopkeeper Liu did not dislike her sales method. However, when it came to business, she still asked, “But what if I think it’s not worth it?”
Xiaoxiao was neither anxious nor angry. “Then you can bargain. We can always negotiate.”
She said seriously, “I chose the most beautiful cloth shop to sell embroidery.”
Shopkeeper Liu was amused. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled. “Alright, alright. Girl, it’s a pity that you don’t do business. I’ll accept this embroidery, but this is our first time working together. We’re unfamiliar, so I’ll only give you twelve copper coins per piece. Are you selling it?”
Of course, there was no problem with Xiaoxiao. Shopkeeper Liu stood up and instructed the shop assistant, “Go and count 96 copper coins for this girl.”
Xiaoxiao took the copper coin and asked with a smile, “Since the first deal was successful, are we considered acquaintances now?”
Shopkeeper Liu looked at her with interest and heard her ask, “Pretty Sister, are you free now? Give me a chance to talk to you about the second business deal?”
