Gu Xi: "Hey, the skirt has been taken in, the customer is very satisfied."
Receiving confirmation, Luman was overjoyed; it meant her first step had been successful. Suppressing her excitement, Luman asked, "Sister Xi didn't just come to tell me this news, did she?"
Gu Xi: "The customer wants all kinds of clothes, as long as the styles are different. The reward is 10 gold coins. This should be able to develop into a long-term business. I'll help you make connections. How about a 10% commission?"
Gu Xi was concise and to the point, directly stating his conditions.
In human society, Luhmann would definitely think a 10% commission was too expensive, but this is the New World. Gu Xi's ability to maintain long-term contact with the Deep Sea Clan who have a demand for this kind of clothing is a tremendous skill. Someone with such ability deserves more compensation.
Without the slightest hesitation, Luhmann said, "Thank you, I'll take the job."
Gu Xi hummed in agreement and continued, "The other party is a relatively friendly deep-sea race towards humans. If possible, we should try to increase the race's favorability, you know that, right?"
Luhmann: "Of course, I will charge an appropriate fee. The previous dresses were samples, and I will set different prices depending on the materials used in the dresses."
Luman understood Gu Xi's implication, of course. Humanity was facing many dangers in this world. The more allies they could gain, the fewer enemies they would have. What they were doing now was not just about making money.
Gu Xi: "I'll pay you two gold coins first, you can use them to buy materials to make it."
After the two hung up the phone, Luman received a deposit of two gold coins from Gu Xi.
Looking out the window at the chubby little ball playing below, Gu Xi sighed, then flopped onto the sofa and began training her mental strength again.
Little Fatty was having a wonderful time on Gu Xi's boat. He practiced skating during the day, ate fish food when he was hungry, and slept in the cabin at night. Every now and then, the octopus would bring him some other snacks. He was having a really great time on vacation.
However, one thing bothered it: its fish skin got dirty after only a short time. Once it got dirty, it didn't look good, and it couldn't be worn anymore.
When Gu Xi came downstairs, she saw the little chubby girl staring blankly at the nautical-style dress, so she asked, "What are you looking at it for?"
When the little chubby ball saw that it was its friend coming down, it said somewhat sadly, "The fish skin is dirty, I can't wear it anymore."
Gu Xi squatted down, picked up the little skirt and looked at it. It was covered in dirt, like a kindergarten child rolling around in a sandpit.
It's just dirty, that's okay, I can just wash it.
So Gu Xi called the octopus over and asked it to wash the little skirt and then put it in the smelting room to dry.
Little Fatty watched the octopus's movements curiously and asked Gu Xi, puzzled, "What is it trying to do?"
Gu Xi then realized that the little chubby boy didn't even know what clothes were, so he definitely didn't know about washing them. She patiently explained, "You can wash fish skin when it gets dirty, but you need to use special products to clean it."
The little chubby ball nodded as if it understood, and followed closely behind the octopus, watching it work.
It watched as the octopus first soaked its skin in water with its tentacles, then added a strange liquid, and then used its tentacles to stir and slap it repeatedly before cleaning it.
When the octopus took out the cleaned fish skin, Little Fatty was stunned. The originally dirty fish skin was now clean.
Gu Xi walked over at some point and said to Little Fatty, "This kind of fish has very delicate skin and gets dirty very easily. You can learn how to take care of it from the octopus."
