1943 Chapter 1943: Shopkeeper Guo, dumbfounded
“Big sister, although the clothes you made are novel in style and look good with accessories such as drapes or belts, it doesn’t look bad.
However, time is limited, and there is no time to make all the ready-made clothes! “Moreover, even if it can be completed, I don’t think it will sell at a good price. Plus, with all the expenses, it will still be a loss.”Mo fangqin was still uncertain, and she felt that it was too difficult to make a profit without losing money.
“Third sister, people consider two factors when buying things. One is whether the item is good, and the other is whether the item is famous or not. “Now, we’ve already completed the first step. The clothes are indeed good. The rest depends on the second step.”
Mo Fangqin was at a loss. “Big Sister, why can’t I understand what you’re saying? Famous? How famous can this rag be? If it’s really spread out that it’s a defective product, then it won’t be able to sell!”
Yun chujiu laughed arrogantly, “That depends on how you want to fool me. You just wait and See!”
Mo fangqin still felt that this matter wasn’t reliable, but seeing that Yun chujiu wanted to keep her in suspense, she decided not to ask.
In the middle of the night, Hei s.h.i.+ sneaked into Yun Chujiu’s courtyard with a few people.
They were devastated. As guards of the Mo residence, how could they sneak into the young Miss’s courtyard like a joke?
The one who was even more devastated was a fat old man. This was the shopkeeper that Mo Xiaoting had found for Yun Chujiu. He was brought here by Hei s.h.i.+.
The Fat Old Man’s surname was Guo. Even now, he was still in a Daze!
What was he trying to do?
He had been kidnapped from his home in the middle of the night, claiming that it was an order from the master. If the master wanted to see him, why didn’t he see him in the day? Besides, this courtyard was not the master’s Courtyard!
Yun chujiu heard the commotion outside and signaled for Qing Zhi and Qing Liu to keep an eye on the outside. She led the group into a small living room at the side.
The reason why Yun Chujiu dared to use Qing Zhi and Qing Liu was that this fellow had the names of the spies of the Wu s.h.i.+ and the others. They were not on the list.
Moreover, she had observed them for a period of time and found that the two handmaidens were quite obedient. She had also threatened and bribed them. She had let them handle some unimportant matters.
Shopkeeper Guo was even more dumbfounded when he saw Yun Chujiu and Mo Fangqin!
Although he did not know Yun Chujiu and Mo fangqin, he could tell from their clothes that they were the young ladies of the Mo residence. How could he come to see them in the middle of the night?
Yun chujiu sized up shopkeeper Guo. “Shopkeeper, What’s your surname?”
“My surname is Guo,”shopkeeper Guo said respectfully.
“So it’s shopkeeper Guo. You might not know why I called you here. “It’s like this. My grandfather gave me a task, which is to sell the plain brocade that my uncle and the others brought in at a high price. I asked my grandfather to give me a shrewd shopkeeper.
“Since you have been chosen by my grandfather, it means that you are the best among the many shopkeepers of the Mo family. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
Shopkeeper Guo finally understood and his heart sank. That batch of plain brocade was a defective product. How could it be sold at a high price? This mission was simply too difficult! Was he supposed to think of a way to sell it? It couldn’t be sold at all!
Yun Chujiu saw shopkeeper Guo and guessed his thoughts, she couldn’t help but smile. “Shopkeeper Guo, don’t worry. I have my own plans for what to do. “I have a task for you now. Find a dozen or so reliable tailors and finish making these ready-made drawings within two days. You can just ask uncle for the plain brocade. Keep your actions secret and don’t let others find out.”
