The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law-Chapter 1644 - 1647: Design Required

The assistant next to Zhang Shiyu quickly said, "Boss Gu, Miss Zhang’s family wants to build a set of the Sunshine Flower Room. We gave her the sample, but she’s not satisfied and insists on having you design it personally."

Gu Youyou smiled faintly, gracefully descending the stairs.

Walking up to Zhang Shiyu, she said, "I’m not a professional Sunshine Flower Room designer. Are you sure you want me to do it?"

Zhang Shiyu chuckled lightly, saying, "How can Princess Ning underestimate herself? Your reputation as a talented designer is known far and wide. Weren’t the most original sets of Sunshine Flower Rooms in the Xiguang Residence all drawn by you? Why claim you’re not professional now?"

The most original designs were too contemporary and didn’t quite match the aesthetics of ancient people.

After a brief moment of amazement, they figured out the types they preferred, so Gu Youyou can no longer be considered a Sunshine Flower Room designer.

However, Gu Youyou also knew Zhang Shiyu wasn’t here to customize a Sunshine Flower Room. She was clearly here to stir up trouble.

Alright, just in time for the grudge left from last time to be addressed.

Gu Wu was dead, but the Zhang Family remained unharmed. Gu Youyou had been holding onto a grudge, and since she couldn’t touch that old fellow, dealing with the younger ones could at least regain some interest.

Gu Youyou gestured for her, saying, "Miss Zhang, shall we go to the VIP room to discuss in detail?"

Gu Youyou led Zhang Shiyu into a separate room, prepared for customers with status and rank.

Soon, a maid came in to serve tea and pastries.

Gu Youyou picked up a pen and began to ask, "Miss Zhang, what kind would you like?"

Zhang Shiyu picked up her teacup intending to take a sip, but upon hearing Gu Youyou’s question, she put it down, saying, "Isn’t that your job? Why are you asking me?"

Gu Youyou smiled faintly, saying, "So, Miss Zhang has no requirements, and you’ll take whatever I design?"

"Hmm!" Zhang Shiyu said authoritatively, considering herself a guest and Gu Youyou as the seller here.

But it’s fine, she thought. She’s a businesswoman; as long as Zhang Shiyu pays, what’s wrong with drawing a few pictures?

Gu Youyou casually drew a crude design and showed it to Zhang Shiyu.

"How about this? Small frame, large glass, transparent!"

The drawback is that the glass would easily break after a few days, but Gu Youyou didn’t mention that.

Zhang Shiyu frowned, saying, "What is this supposed to be? It’s even worse than the sample card. It’s hideous!"

"This is a minimalist style!" Gu Youyou explained with a smile.

"Change it, change it. I don’t want this, no matter what style it is!"

Gu Youyou put away her smile, placed the pen on its stand, and said, "My design drawings aren’t cheap. One is 120 silver, but since we’re old acquaintances, I’ll cut a deal; you can have it for 100."

"What?" Zhang Shiyu stood up excitedly, pointing at the hasty sketches on the paper, saying, "Just a few random strokes for 100 silver? Why don’t you just rob me?"

"This is a design drawing, selling intellectual effort!" Gu Youyou said calmly with her arms crossed.

Zhang Shiyu sneered, "A painting isn’t even sold for 100 silver, and yours..."

"This is a design drawing!" Gu Youyou emphasized again, "Every designer has their own price. It’s clearly written in the lobby; 120 silver is my rate, but it’s not the most expensive here. Clear and honest pricing. If Miss Zhang finds it expensive, she shouldn’t have asked me to draw. The new designer takes only 20 silver. Would you like me to bring him in?"
