Li Xiaoya hadn't expected that this shop belonged to Huang Tinggan, and that the owner was actually his grandmother. Furthermore, Huang Tinggan had clearly told his grandmother not to charge her money. Wasn't that like giving her the goods for free? A flicker of embarrassment crossed Li Xiaoya's face, and she stopped him.
"No, no, Ms. Zhou, I'll have the goods selected later. You can calculate the price and I'll give it to you!"
The money that should be given must be given. Li Xiaoya is not the kind of person who covets other people’s money!
Although Huang Tinggan had agreed to pay for the purchase of the goods, Li Xiaoya did not intend to let him pay for it all by himself.
Since the two were in love and might become husband and wife in the future, Li Xiaoya had planned for each of them to pay half of the cost of purchasing the goods. Unexpectedly, after they came to purchase the goods.
The merchant she was buying the goods from turned out to be owned by Huang Tinggan's grandmother, and they even offered her the goods for free. How could Li Xiaoya feel embarrassed?
Hehe, they are just dating, they have no relatives or friends, why should she ask others to buy goods for her for free?
As soon as Li Xiaoya finished speaking, Huang Tinggan was about to speak when Grandma Zhou tugged at her grandson's clothes and signaled him with her eyes not to speak. Huang Tinggan had no choice but to shut up. He saw Grandma Zhou adjust her glasses and speak softly.
"Xiaoya, since you're dating our family, you don't have to call me Ms. Zhou. Just call me Grandma!"
Huang Tinggan, who was standing by, quite agreed with his grandmother's art of speaking. He secretly gave her a thumbs up and echoed her.
"Xiaoya, you're welcome. My grandma is your grandma, and my home is your home from now on!"
Li Xiaoya: “…”
That's really rude of you. You asked me to call you grandma when we were still dating, and said that his home is her home. She is not that familiar.
But no matter what, Zhou Zhan is already very old, and Li Xiaoya is now in a relationship with Huang Ting, so naturally she has to call Zhou Zhan grandma. So, Li Xiaoya smiled sweetly and said softly.
"Grandma, it's like this. Even though Huang Jingan and I are dating, I can't take advantage of you. You opened your shop to do business. I can't let you do business at a loss and sell me goods for free, right? Besides, I can't do business for free. I come here to buy goods because I want to do long-term business with you, so I still have to pay you."
Anyway, Li Xiaoya was taught since childhood that she should not take advantage of others.
Li Xiaoya's words made Zhou Zhan's eyes flash with admiration. This girl is quite upright and doesn't take advantage of others. It seems that she has a kind heart.
She would be relieved if Huang Tinggan really found such a girl to be his wife in the future. However, Huang Tinggan on the side became anxious and said.
"Xiaoya, you really don't have to be so polite. My grandma opened this shop to make money from others, how could she make money from her future granddaughter-in-law? If you like any of the fine products later, let my grandma give them to you for free!"
Huang Tinggan believed that businesses naturally had to make money, but not their own. For example, Li Xiaoya would be part of his family, so if she married him, she wouldn't have to make money and could sell her goods for free.
Zhou Zhan, who was standing aside, looked at his grandson with an anxious look on his face and said with a smile.
"Yes, Xiaoya, you don't have to be so polite. If you like any of the exquisite items, grandma will give them to you for free!"
Li Xiaoya shook her head and refused.
"As the saying goes, brothers should settle accounts clearly. Grandma, the longest-lasting relationship is one of profit. You really don't have to give me a free meal. I'll buy the goods from you later, and I have to pay you the right amount. Otherwise, I won't be able to come to buy goods next time!"
As the saying goes, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. This is what Li Xiaoya learned from following Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin.
Profit is always the purpose of maintaining all relationships! She didn't want to take things for free in other people's stores, causing Huang Tinggan's grandmother to look down on her from that moment on. She was not without money, so why would she take advantage of other people's things for free?
Seeing that Li Xiaoya spoke so convincingly, Huang Ting became anxious.
"Xiaoya, we're boyfriend and girlfriend, there's really no need to pay!"
"Huang Tinggan, stop talking. I'm not the kind of person who wants to take advantage of your family. Besides, if you let grandma give me the goods for free, I will feel uneasy."
"Okay, grandson, stop talking. Your girlfriend is a strong-willed person. Since she doesn't want to take advantage of us, let's just follow the rules. I'll charge her the wholesale price for the fine products she buys."
There is a saying that Li Xiaoya said is very correct. The longest-lasting relationship in this world is the relationship of interest. There is indeed no free lunch in the world. If Li Xiaoya often comes to her to get things for free, people will really look down on her over time.
These high-quality products from their store are the best in North City in terms of both quality and style. Even if Li Xiaoya paid for it and used it to open a boutique, she would still make a lot of money and would not have to worry about losing money. Moreover, in order to attract more repeat customers, their boutique also stipulates that all high-quality products taken out from their Guanglai Boutique Wholesale Department can be returned free of charge if they are not sold after three months.
By the same token, Li Xiaoya, as their customer, also enjoys this rule.
If Li Xiaoya cannot sell the high-quality products she bought from them within three months, she can also ask her to return or even exchange them.
"grandmother……"
Huang Tinggan wanted to say something else, but Li Xiaoya reached out to stop her and said approvingly.
"Huang Tinggan, please stop talking. Grandma agreed to let me pay for the goods, so I felt comfortable doing business with Guanglai Boutique Wholesale Department. If I always come to you to get them for free, how can I be so shameless?"
Huang Tinggan: "..."
Okay, his girlfriend is also stubborn, so just pay the money. At worst, when they go out on a date in the future, he will try to buy some expensive gifts for Li Xiaoya to make up for her loss.
In fact, the purchase price of high-quality goods these days is not expensive, just a few cents or even a few cents. All in all, the purchase price is not expensive. Since Li Xiaoya insists on paying, I can only shut up.
Otherwise, if Wu disobeyed his girlfriend and she was so frivolous and broke up with him, he would be banging his head against the wall. He had finally gotten Li Xiaoya to sign the relationship report and start dating, so he couldn't let the cooked duck fly away.
Compared to Huang Tinggan's depression, Zhou Zhan's eyes were full of appreciation. She glanced at her future granddaughter-in-law and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, Xiaoya, go ahead and continue selecting the fine products. I'll calculate the price based on the actual situation. I promise you won't get anything for free in our store. I admire your perseverance and your refusal to take advantage of others."
After making sure that the other party would not let her take it for free, Li Xiaoya felt relieved and replied with a smile.
"Okay, grandma, I'll continue to pick out the best products!"
