Chapter 124 High-end hunters all appear as prey
"It's like this, I have a relative who makes a silk quilt core. He needs to import fabrics to make the quilt core, so he needs a large quantity of goods. These are in short supply."
When the boss heard this, he thought, you are a business person, and you are a long-term customer?
But it’s not right!
Why only buy this much?
It doesn’t look like a big business!
So he asked, "Is this little cloth enough?"
Shen Xia certainly understood what she meant, so she explained: "Of course I have my own supplier! It's just that the goods I bought before are not enough, and I just happen to be short of some now, otherwise how could I get the goods from a small store like yours."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Miss Shen, it's actually the same no matter where you buy the goods. The important thing is the price, right? Don't you think so?"
Shen Xia pretended to be entangled and said, "What the shopkeeper said makes sense, but I don't know what my relatives think."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Then could you trouble Miss Shen to find out for me?"
Shen Xia hesitated for a while: "Okay! I'll ask for you."
Then the shopkeeper asked again: "What is this silk quilt? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Shen Xia pretended to look at the shopkeeper as if he was looking at something: "Of course you don't know it, this kind of thing is only sold in the capital city, it's very expensive, much more expensive than a cotton quilt."
"As a high-quality bedding, silk quilt has many advantages. Its softness, warmth, breathability, environmental protection and beauty make it an ideal choice for people who pursue a high quality of life. Whether it is winter or summer, silk quilt can bring you a comfortable sleeping experience."
"When you put that thing on your body, it feels like sleeping on a cloud in the sky. It is comfortable and only high-end and quality customers can buy it."
Shen Xia thought about the classic saying from his previous life: high-end hunters all appear as prey, and it seems that it is true.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was amazed at the good stuff.
Although there are not many rich people in the county, there are still wealthy people.
Thinking about it, I asked, "Can we bring some in to sell in our store?"
Shen Xia looked at her in surprise, then glanced around the store: "I'm afraid your store can't sell such expensive goods?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was unhappy because he still had several high-quality customers in his store.
Then he said, "How expensive is it? I want to go in."
Shen Xia was tempted when she heard this: "This silk quilt has two catties, five catties, and eight catties. The big cloth shops in the city buy it at two catties, five catties, and eight catties per quilt."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he realized that the purchase price was almost as high as the selling price of cotton.
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "What is the selling price?"
Shen Xia thought for a moment: "The market price for two catties is five taels of silver, five catties is twelve taels of silver, and eight catties is twenty taels of silver. The selling price is the same."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was shocked!
Huge profits!
No, I must get this stuff myself!
At this time, the boss was even more enthusiastic than before: "Girl! You must talk to your relative and ask if you can supply me with two of the same goods first!"
At this time, the shopkeeper didn't even call her "girl", but directly called her "sister".
Shen Xia didn't hesitate and directly refused: "No, the goods in the city are all out of stock, how can I give it to you first. And it's very troublesome to make this thing."
The shopkeeper was a little hesitant at first, but was rejected directly.
This person wanted this thing even more in his heart: "Sister, please, I beg you, just take one for each weight!"
Shen Xia hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Sis, you are quite straightforward. I will help you get it this time with reluctance, but I am not sure whether I can get it next time."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Okay, thank you very much, sister. Do you want me to pay you for the goods first?"
Shen Xia shook her head: "No, you can pay more when you see the goods."
After hearing this, the shopkeeper felt that he had gotten an advantage.
When it came time to pay, the cloth originally cost 11 taels and 6 cents.
The boss only charged me eleven taels and said that there would be discounts in the future.
The little girl next to him was extremely regretful.
Missed out on such a big client.
In this county, there are still few customers who can spend 11 taels at a time.
After Shen Xia and Song Jiang moved the things to the ox cart, they looked at the shopkeeper and said, "I have something to do at the county government office the day after tomorrow. I will send the things to you then."
The shopkeeper smiled happily and said, "Okay. Thank you for troubling me, sister."
Shen Xia smiled and said, "It's not a problem," and then left.
The shopkeeper watched Shen Xia leave before returning to the store.
The jealous girl said, "Boss, what did you talk about?"
The shopkeeper glanced at her and said, "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Remember, this girl will be a distinguished guest of our family from now on."
They both nodded at the same time.
Then he turned to Cuiyun and said, "Well, Cuiyun, you did a good job today. And Liuzhi, don't think I don't know that you usually judge people by their appearance. You must have learned your lesson this time!"
The girl named Liu Zhi was told so bluntly by the shopkeeper,
I felt embarrassed for a moment, as I thought the shopkeeper didn't know!
If the shopkeeper had criticized himself earlier, he would not have missed this customer today.
The shopkeeper looked at Cuiyun and said, "From now on, whenever Miss Shen comes, she will be considered your customer."
Cuiyun was overjoyed when she heard this, this was a long-term business!
He immediately nodded: "Thank you, shopkeeper. I will definitely work harder."
After Shen Xia and Song Jiang left the cloth shop, they went to the vegetable market for a while.
At this time, everyone buys groceries in the morning, so there is basically not much money in the afternoon, except for those who already have stores in the county.
So I didn’t buy anything.
But you can buy food for the family.
Thinking that I should buy more so as not to tire out the ox, I decided to go to the town to buy grain.
So he left the county without buying much.
Song Jiang was relatively steady when driving the ox cart.
Knowing that she was afraid of being sunburned outside the county, she took the initiative to open the umbrella and hold it for Shen Xia.
Shen Xia looked at his elder brother and said with a smile: "Thank you, elder brother."
Song Jiang just smiled and said nothing.
It took more than half an hour to get to the town, and I went directly to the grain store to buy my daily necessities.
This month's supply of dragon whiskers was purchased last time by my elder brother.
By the time this silk quilt is finished, the malt should have grown to the right height.
There is almost no free time.
There is no other way. For the sake of my comfortable retirement life in the future, I have to cheer up.
I was buying good things in town when I remembered,
Originally I bought some good things at a fabric shop and wanted to see a place where furniture was made, but I was so happy talking to the shopkeeper that I forgot about it.
Now it's almost time to make furniture, just a bed, a desk, and some other things. These things together would make quite a bit.
So the booking time is about the same now.
It seems I can only remember it when I come to the county town the day after tomorrow. I can't forget it again.
