The shopkeeper nodded without thinking: "Yes, of course I am."
"In that case, let's talk about cooperation?"
"Okay, okay, madam, please come in and let's discuss it carefully." The shopkeeper made an inviting gesture and led He Zhiran into the embroidery room.
Seeing that she was completely ignored, Miss Li chased after her unwillingly.
"Hey! I'll give you twenty taels of silver, do you want to sell it?"
Twenty taels and a doll rabbit, Hezhi Ranruo didn't sell it, it was indeed a bit too much.
"In this case, I can only give up my love."
Miss Li was afraid that things would change, so she quickly ordered the maid next to her to pay the money.
When the shopkeeper saw that He Zhiran had obtained twenty taels of silver so quickly, he would be lying if he said he was not jealous.
But thinking that if she could negotiate this business, she would have countless opportunities to earn twenty taels, and she felt extremely excited.
Miss Li got the jackrabbit doll and happily held it in her arms, but it seemed she had no intention of leaving.
The shopkeeper anxiously asked He Zhiran about the price of sending the dolls to her. However, Miss Li was there and she couldn't ask immediately. The whole person was in a hurry.
Seeing the man selling his doll rabbit sitting there calmly, Ms. Li quickly approached him.
"I wonder if you have any dolls of similar quality. I want them all."
Dolls of similar quality?
She can have as much as she wants.
If she doesn’t have it, she can still buy it on Taobao Mall.
However, He Zhiran was not dazzled by the small benefits in front of him.
Her purpose was to discuss business with the shopkeeper. Although Miss Li was not short of money, she could not buy too much.
He Zhiran was not short of money, so he suddenly started the doll business, mainly to help the Xie family and the Fang family, so that they could support themselves, which was better than unnecessary help from himself.
She doesn't want to take out too many types of dolls at once. Although she is not good at doing business, she also knows the principle of step by step.
"I'm sorry, young lady, there is only one type of doll at the moment."
After hearing her words, Miss Li was obviously a little disappointed and waved the two maids to leave.
When the shopkeeper saw the person leaving, he quickly said with a smile on his face: "Little lady, I wonder how many such dolls you can provide to my embroidery room?"
He Zhiran cannot guarantee the number of dolls provided.
After all, she didn't know how long her group could stay here.
"Shopkeeper, I don't have this doll in stock. If you need it here, you can only ask your family to make it temporarily.
I was just passing by here. Now that the dock and the city are closed, I don’t know how long I can stay here, so there is no way to guarantee the quantity. "
The shopkeeper was somewhat disappointed after hearing her words, but now that she had the opportunity to make money, she could never give up.
"That's fine. I can accept as many dolls as your family can make recently. However, the price..."
He Zhiran didn't think a long-eared rabbit doll was worth much money.
I just sold twenty taels per piece. It was the price offered by Miss Li on her own initiative, not because she was so arrogant.
On the surface, she was thinking about the price, but in fact her consciousness had entered the space. She planned to take a look at how much it would cost to make the artificial fur fabric of the jackrabbit, as well as the cotton filling, etc., so that she could easily calculate the cost.
In Taobao Mall, there is fabric specially made for making plush toys. The size is 50 centimeters square and sells for 10 yuan. The filling cotton sells for 15 yuan per kilogram.
There are also decorations for the eyes and nose, which only cost one yuan a set.
He Zhiran made a rough calculation and found that the cost of making a doll rabbit of the same size as the one just now would be about fifteen yuan. Of course, the labor cost would need to be calculated additionally.
She then simply calculated the purchasing power of one tael of silver in this era, which was almost equivalent to a thousand yuan in later generations.
At the cost of one tael of silver, more than sixty long-eared rabbits like this can be produced. For He Zhiran, this is hardly a cost...
After calculating the cost, He Zhiran said: "Shopkeeper, a jackrabbit doll of the same size as the one just now will cost you at least one tael of silver each."
"What? Little lady, please don't open your mouth like a lion. For a purchase price of one tael of silver, who do you want me to sell it to?"
The shopkeeper also knew in his heart that Miss Li could just spend twenty taels on a doll rabbit, which was because she was wealthy and impatient.
Moreover, you only need to own one such doll. No matter how stupid Ms. Li is, she will not spend twenty taels to buy the same doll again.
She was worried that with such a high purchase price, if she couldn't sell it, all the money would be lost.
He Zhiran laughed: "The quality of my jackrabbit doll is so high, you will definitely not be able to buy it with that material. The shopkeeper doesn't have to worry about selling such a unique doll."
The shopkeeper would never deny this.
The material used to make the doll was indeed something she had never seen before, and it felt plush and felt particularly good.
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't speak, He Zhiran continued to lobby.
"To be honest with the shopkeeper, I accidentally bought the material from a foreigner. I don't have much left in my hands now. If the shopkeeper thinks the price I want is high, I will look for other partners. I believe there will always be There will be people who know the goods.”
As soon as he finished speaking, He Zhiran stood up and prepared to leave.
When the shopkeeper saw this, he immediately became anxious.
"Little lady, don't leave in a hurry. One tael of silver is just one tael of silver. I promise to have all the dolls you make."
He Zhiran's price of one tael of silver was already very realistic. If he didn't want to make small profits but sell more, so that the Fang family and the Xie family could make some money, let alone one tael of silver each, there would probably be people who wanted five taels of each.
She didn't really want to leave, so she followed the shopkeeper's words and sat back down.
"The shopkeeper seems to be very cheerful at first glance. In this case, we will make a written statement in person to avoid changes in the future."
"Okay, just follow what the lady said and set up a written document."
While the shopkeeper was talking, he had already brought out pen and paper.
She looked at He Zhiran's dress and thought that the latter was just a daughter-in-law from a poor family and probably couldn't write.
"Little lady, can I write the words?"
He Zhiran made a gesture of invitation: "Okay, thank you to the shopkeeper for your hard work."
The shopkeeper has never read a book, so he can only learn how to write because of the convenience of opening a shop.
Therefore, she does not write very fast.
After almost a cup of tea, she wrote two identical documents according to what they had agreed upon.
The shopkeeper took the lead in signing his name on it, and then handed the two documents to He Zhiran.
"If you don't know how to write, you can just print your fingerprints."
He Zhiran smiled and said nothing, took the brush from the shopkeeper's hand and signed his name.
When the shopkeeper saw that her handwriting was countless times more beautiful than his own, his face suddenly turned red.
It’s true that people can’t be judged by their appearance. I thought they couldn’t write, but as a result, their handwriting turned out to be so beautiful...
He Zhiran pretended not to notice the shopkeeper's embarrassment, put away a piece of paper alone and stood up.
"Shopkeeper, I won't interfere with your business here. Now go back and let your family start working early."
"Okay, I hope the lady will deliver the goods soon."
He Zhiran responded and walked out of the embroidery room.
Mo Jiuye had been waiting at the door. When he saw her coming out, he stepped forward and asked, "You are not short of money, why do you take this job?"
The two of them continued to walk forward aimlessly, and He Zhiran explained as they walked.
"Yesterday, I saw the Fang family and the Xie family looking sad because they had no money. Suddenly I saw this business opportunity and wanted to help them make some money.
The sisters-in-law and Hanyue have been bored lately, so I just found something for them to do, just to relieve their boredom. "
