An Xin and Wang Feng were stunned for a moment. Aunt Yu thought carefully, "Yes, there are a few shops on this street. They have good products at affordable prices, and most importantly, you can negotiate a lot! In the future, when you buy things, don't go to those well-decorated stores. They are the worst! Not only are the products expensive, but the quality is also poor, and you can't bargain!"
Aunt Yu immediately mentioned a few good shops she knew, and Lin Yin silently memorized them.
After dinner, they stayed at their aunt's house for one night, had breakfast early the next morning, and then took a ox cart to go shopping.
Aunt Yu was afraid that they were not full, so she stuffed them with several big buns, some with meat filling and some with cabbage.
An Xin looked at her daughter and asked, "Yin Yin, are we going to buy a sewing machine and a bicycle?"
Lin Yin nodded: "Yeah."
An Xin and Wang Feng looked at each other, obviously frightened.
Everyone knows that to see whether a family is rich or poor, you just need to look at whether they have "three turns and one ring".
The three turns refer to bicycles, sewing machines, and watches, and the one sound refers to radios.
These things are valuable. I can't even afford second-hand ones, and a brand new one costs hundreds of dollars. It will cost at least five or six hundred yuan to buy all of them.
The average worker's monthly salary is only more than 30 yuan. Just imagine how many months of saving money one would have to go without food and drink to buy these things.
Anyway, nowadays in their village, not to mention anyone buying the "three turns and one ring", no one has either a turn or a ring.
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the place. Lin Yin saw the place Aunt Yu mentioned and quickly stopped.
This is where we sell sewing machines. We have all kinds of brands, both new and second-hand.
Lin Yin went up and asked, "How much is the sewing machine?"
The boss pointed to one side and said, "Shanghai ones are 180, and Butterfly ones are 200."
Then he pointed to an old one and said, "Second-hand ones are all 100 yuan."
The price scared An Xin and Wang Feng behind them so much that their faces changed drastically. This was too expensive.
Lin Yin looked at the Butterfly brand, then at the Shanghai brand, and finally chose the one with the higher price.
She patted the sewing machine and said, "I'll take the 130."
"One hundred and thirty?" The boss laughed and said, "Little girl, this sewing machine of mine costs two hundred. Would you like to take it away for one hundred and thirty?"
Lin Yin nodded: "Yes."
The boss shook his head without even thinking: "How is that possible? If you said you could take the 190, I could consider it, but this 130... No, no."
"I bought this sewing machine for 180 yuan, how can I sell it to you for 130 yuan?"
Lin Yin smiled: "Boss, there are not many outsiders here, so there is no need to say some empty words."
"Since I'm at your house today to pick up a sewing machine, I must know the market price."
Sewing machines are indeed expensive nowadays, but many vendors buy dozens of them from manufacturers, so the purchase price is definitely more affordable than what they sell outside.
As expected, the boss smiled embarrassedly. He didn't expect Lin Yin to be so hard to fool. But in order to make more money, he still asked for the price: "One hundred and eighty, take it. My sewing machine is really good."
Lin Yin still offered the same price: "One hundred and thirty."
The boss was anxious: "Why are you so stubborn, little girl! This price really can't be any lower. If it is any lower, I will lose money."
Lin Yin smiled: "One hundred and thirty per unit, I'll take two."
As soon as these words were spoken, the boss was shocked.
There are very few people who buy sewing machines now, so they all want to earn as much as possible. No one has ever asked for two at once, as they are big customers!
