Chapter 480 - An Opportunity
" What"s…what"s this?" Su Wan never thought that there will be a day when she would see something that she has never seen before, being a transmigrator she often believed that she had seen everything in the modern world but … it would be a lie if she said that she wasn"t surprised by Fang Tao"s embroidered cloth.
Fang Tao seemed to have noticed the surprise that Su Wan was currently feeling at the moment, she smiled triumphantly at Lin Chen who was glaring at her from the side and handed the embroidered piece of cloth to Su Wan " Its something that I learnt after working for many years. I don"t want to boast about my unnaturally exceptional talents but I am indeed a very talented young girl" she cupped her cheek with an arrogant smirk that p.r.i.c.ked the Lin brothers all the same.
However, Su Wan had no time to care about her husbands jealous expression, she took a sniff of the cloth and instantly an explosion of a sweet and rich scent occurred. The scent was very faint but it was so enchanting that Su Wan caught herself sniffing more of it, she worked on scented oil herself but this mix that Fang Tao came up with was different, it was like real flowers were blooming on the piece of this embroidered cloth!
It was rather surprising but Su Wan wasn"t someone who wouldn"t believe that there could be someone who was better and more skilful than she was, and she was indeed a complete rookie when it came to scents and perfumes. She looked up at Fang Tao and thought of several possibilities, this young girl was indeed a bit troublesome but if she hires her as a permanent worker in her shop then she will be able to enjoy the fruits of her talents.
Fang Tao stared intently at the mult.i.tude of expressions that crossed Su Wan"s face and eagerly asked, " How is it? Does it smell good? Are my skills good enough for me to stay by your side?"
Su Wan grabbed the cloth in her hand tightly, holding back her excitement with happiness br.i.m.m.i.n.g in her heart, she replied earnestly " Fang Tao, you are indeed rather skilful, I never thought that I will be able to find such a talented individual in the village."
Fang Tao who was praised by her idol was so happy that she forcefully grabbed Su Wan"s hands, holding back tears of joy in her eyes, she smiled at Su Wan, " Sister Wan Wan, you have no idea how much your words have overwhelmed me. I am not worthy of this extravagant praise but I will definitely try to do my best in the future too.. so accept me as your own!"
A couple of imaginary lines appeared above the Lin Brothers. " hey! hey! First of all, what"s with these grabby paws of yours? And secondly, do you think that we are dead? Why should Wan Wan accept you as her own? Furthermore, you little troublemaker, we are standing right in front of you but you are actually shamelessly flirting with our wife in front of us?"
Lin Chen who has been listening silently on the side immediately pulled Su Wan away from Fang Tao"s grabby paws, he was really worried about leaving his wife with this woman. Not only because he believed that Fang Tao"s intentions were not clear but also because he had heard a rumour flying around in the village a few years ago, the rumours were about how the imperial concubines who couldn"t get the love of the emperor would actually help each other to solve their itch - Su Wan, of course, didn"t need a help of a woman for that but … this Fang Tao, he couldn"t trust her alone with his wife!
How annoying! Now, not only does he has to worry about men trying to chase his wife but also this Fang Tao!
He peered at Fang Tao while pulling Su Wan behind him " Don"t talk nonsense, just tell us how will this piece of embroidered cloth is worth enough for us to buy you from the Fang family? Won"t the scent be gone in a month or two?"
" Tsk, tsk" Fang Tao waved her finger and clicked her tongue as she gave Lin Chen a superior glance as if looking down at him for asking such a question " are you sure that you have a good business mind? If the clothes never lose their scent then how will we be able to sell new clothes? Wouldn"t it be a loss on our side?"
Lin Chen narrowed his eyes glowering at him but Su Wan stepped out from behind him with an eye roll, she was willing to play along with her husbands most of the time but not right now, it was such a good deal and if Lin Chen kept glaring at Fang Tao then they might lose the chance to make it big!
However, what Lin Chen said was also right. If the embroidery ends up losing its uniqueness in just one wash or two then no one will buy it. They have to think it through carefully. Thus, she cleared her throat and said " Fang Tao, I admit that you came up with a really good thing but I think Ah Chen, is right too. If we are going to piece these embroidered cloths in the dresses of our shops them we can"t let these pieces lose their scent in just a few months or weeks, it won"t look good for our shop"
When Su Wan took his side Lin Chen raised his chin and looked at Fang Tao with the same triumphant gaze mirroring it to tee as she has done before.
Fang Tao"s eyes immediately narrowed but she? didn"t pick a fight with Lin Chen this time, instead, she turned her attention to Su Wan and carefully took a breath before beginning her explanation " that"s not going to happen because these pieces of embroidered clothes will not lose their scents for at least six months!"
