The shopkeeper's hands fell on the dolls. The stitches were so fine that no traces of sewing could be seen. They looked simple, but were actually exquisite.
However, as she watched, she discovered something different.
"Girl, these scraps of cloth look familiar."
Jiang Wan did not hide anything and spoke frankly.
"Shopkeeper, you have a good eye. These scraps of cloth are the ones you took away from the embroidery workshop last time."
After saying that, Jiang Wan blinked and asked, "Does the shopkeeper want to go back?"
Wang Ying saw her speaking so frankly and raised the corners of her lips slightly.
"They are just scraps of cloth. If I give them to you, they are yours. Besides, I gave them to you so that you can sell those embroidery works to me later, so it's not a loss."
As for the fact that she could make these things with those scraps of cloth, that was her ability. Why should she be jealous?
Looking at the puppet in my hand again, it is a kitten puppet, mainly made of yellow and gray fabrics. Although the color difference is a bit big, it looks very compatible.
"Girl, is this your ingenuity?"
Even she would be very happy to see such a small and exquisite thing.
If you put it on a child and the child sees it...they will definitely love it.
It’s a pity...what’s wrapped inside doesn’t seem to be anything expensive, and it’s even a bit prickly.
"Could you tell me what's in here?"
"It's just some soft sawdust in here. It's not worth much."
Jiang Wan spoke truthfully, but the shopkeeper fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he looked up at her.
"How many did the girl bring?"
Does this mean you want it?
"Not many, only sixteen."
She took all the dolls out of the backpack and placed them on the cabinet in front of her.
Looking at the puppets in various animal shapes, a hint of surprise flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes.
"What's the price range in the girl's mind?"
"Fifty cents each."
The shopkeeper's eyes flashed. "A puppet made of scraps of cloth, fifty cents? Does the girl think I'm too easy to make money?"
"Of course not."
Jiang Wan shook her head and looked up at her. There was no anger on her face, but rather some curiosity.
"Shopkeeper, although the things inside are not valuable, the things outside are the most valuable, especially the ingenuity, which is unique. If I sell them in Lingying Embroidery Workshop, I think it will attract a lot of customers."
"The shopkeeper is very knowledgeable and should know whether what I said is true or false."
Wang Ying chuckled, walked out from the counter, placed the round fan in her hand on the table, and walked in front of Jiang Wan.
"The girl is really eloquent, but...what she said is quite right."
It's hard for her to be so honest without any concealment.
She actually felt a little curious about the girl.
"These things are indeed exquisite. I'll take as many as you have, but... Miss, I have another request."
"Speak, shopkeeper."
"I wonder if this outer shell can be made separately? I'm planning to replace the stuffing inside."
Jiang Wan's eyes flickered. As expected of the owner of an embroidery workshop, her mind was very quick.
If the filling inside was replaced with softer cotton, the value of this little doll would be much more expensive than the one it is today.
"Of course you can. If you need to put anything inside, just tell me. I'll make a shell out of it while it's still alive and give it to you, who will then have someone sew it up."
Wang Ying shook her head, thinking that would be too troublesome.
"No need. When we work together, I'll give you the filling and you can hand over the finished product directly to me."
If it is a semi-finished product, the back and forth processing will consume a lot of manpower.
"I'll take those headbands too. Just name your price."
The businessman was indeed very cost-conscious. She provided the materials, and the price remained the same, and he even saved her some labor.
Jiang Wan turned her head.
"If the shopkeeper is sincere and wants to buy it, then... the headband will only cost five cents. How about that?"
Wang Ying's eyes flickered. Five cents? A lot of thought went into those headbands. Only five cents, not expensive at all.
"How about this? I'll give you one more cent for each headband, and fifty-five cents for the doll. From now on, you can only sell these dolls and headbands to my embroidery workshop. How do you do that?"
As expected, he is a businessman who can grasp the most important point in an instant.
If she sold these dolls to other embroidery workshops, Lingying Embroidery Workshop would have no advantages.
"Can."
"But, shopkeeper, there is one thing I need to explain to you. If someone comes to me to buy these dolls, I won't refuse them. However, they won't take too many."
"It's natural."
Wang Ying was very straightforward.
She can't stop all of Jiang Wan's business, right?
Moreover, who knows if a girl who can make such things can make other things?
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
"Miss, you don't have to call me that. My surname is Wang, and my given name is Ying. I'm older than you, so you might as well call me Sister Ying."
"My name is Jiang Wan, so Sister Ying can just call me Wanwan."
"Okay, Wanwan."
Wang Ying chuckled, took out a pen and paper from the counter behind her, drafted a written contract, and placed it in front of Jiang Wan.
"Wanwan, take a look at this contract. If you have any questions, please tell me."
Jiang Wan's eyes fell on the document and read it from beginning to end.
Fortunately, she had learned some things when she was wandering in her previous life, otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to deal with these.
He lowered his head, signed his name, and handed it to Wang Ying opposite him.
"Okay, now that the agreement is reached, I wish us a happy cooperation in advance."
