Chapter 115 Candles attract attention
Thinking this way, Lin Wanning almost wanted to buy all the scented candles from Jiuxia Silver House.
If the Song family knew that they could get this candle by buying jewelry at Jiuxia Silver Shop.
Then what is her value?
Thinking of this, she said, "Where's your boss? I want to talk to her!"
The guys had no idea what to do with such a big thing. They asked Manager Chu to come over, but then they heard that she wanted to meet the boss.
Shopkeeper Chu hurriedly said carefully, "Please wait a moment, my dear guest. I will send someone to ask our boss for instructions."
As she spoke, she winked at Mrs. Duan.
Chu Mingyu and Jiang Tangtang were sitting in a private room on the second floor, keeping an eye on the situation in the shop.
Seeing the shop's booming business after opening, Chu Mingyu was so excited that she almost jumped for joy, "Sister Jiang, we succeeded!"
Jiang Tangtang was also happy. Jiuxia Silver Shop was doing good business, and she could get more money. This way, she didn't have to rush to find ways to make money for the time being. She could just focus on opening the cake shop first.
The two were having fun when Mrs. Duan came to the private room and told them in detail what had just happened in the shop.
The two had never expected such a situation to happen, and they both frowned slightly after hearing it.
Chu Mingyu said, "Sister Jiang, what do you think we should do?"
Jiang Tangtang thought for a moment and said, "We can't mess up the rules. Since we agreed at the beginning that each member will receive one scented candle, then we can only give one."
"But that young lady bought a lot. She ordered jewelry worth thousands of taels of silver right away." said Mrs. Duan.
"If you buy a lot, I'll give you something else!" Jiang Tangtang thought about the aloe vera gel she made and looked at Chu Mingyu. "How about a jar of beauty cream for every 1,000 taels of silver?"
Chu Mingyu hurriedly said, "Sister Jiang, this is a good idea, but I can't let you spend money this time. Sell this beauty cream to me according to the price we agreed on before, and buy it for you!"
Seeing that Jiang Tangtang didn't say anything, Chu Mingyu continued, "Jiuxia Silver Shop was able to revive thanks to Sister Jiang. You are our Chu family's great benefactor. Moreover, with the few pieces of jewelry you brought, even if we give you half of the profit, it would be a great bargain. Don't be polite to me."
Jiang Tangtang smiled and said, "Then let's do as Sister Chu says."
After hearing what the two said, Grandma Duan hurried downstairs. Unexpectedly, she came back up again a moment later. She looked at Chu Mingyu with some embarrassment and said, "That young lady is still clamoring to see you."
Chu Mingyu asked, "Do you still want candles?"
"That's right," Grandma Duan said helplessly, "That young lady even boasted that she would pay you any price you wanted, and that she would buy all the candles in the silver shop and sell them all to her, and not give them to anyone else!"
Chu Mingyu's first reaction was that Jingfulou across the street was causing trouble and wanted to disrupt the shop's business.
But she came to her senses after a moment. If it was really Jingfulou's doing, they would not have come to her to buy candles, but would have done it behind her back. The customer was probably really interested in the scented candles.
She looked at Jiang Tangtang and said, "Sister Jiang, that candle is yours. What do you think?"
Jiang Tangtang smiled and said, "I've already sold the candle to you. Now the candle is yours, but it has nothing to do with me."
Chu Mingyu calmed down and said, "Mrs. Duan, please invite her up. I'll talk to her and see what she means."
After saying that, he reminded: "Tell Shopkeeper Chu not to be influenced by that young lady. Send the scented candles that should be given away and continue business as usual."
After a while, Mrs. Duan brought Lin Wanning to the private room.
Jiang Tangtang did not shy away from meeting this guest with special requests in a private room with Chu Mingyu.
Lin Wanning was stunned when she saw two young women sitting across from her. Were they the owners of Jiuxia Silver Shop? And so young and beautiful?
Regardless of what Lin Wanning was thinking, Chu Mingyu had already stood up and politely poured her tea. "I heard from the shop assistant that the young lady liked our scented candles. We are truly honored. What's your name, Miss? Please sit down and have a cup of tea first."
"My last name is Lin!" Lin Wanning quickly recovered from her shock and raised her chin. "Isn't your waiter already conveyed what I meant to you?"
Chu Mingyu said, "I've heard from the shop assistants that it's our honor that Miss Lin likes our gifts—"
Before she could finish her words, Lin Wanning interrupted impatiently, "Don't say these useless things. Just tell me how much the candles in your shop cost before you are willing to sell them!"
Chu Mingyu was a little annoyed, but still said with a smile: "I'm so sorry, Miss Lin, we've already announced that we'll give away a scented candle if you spend over 100 taels. If I sold this to you, what can I give as a gift? Isn't that a breach of trust?"
"Where did you buy this candle? Can't you just find someone else to buy it from?"
Lin Wanning said, "Besides, if we can't give scented candles, what else can we give? These candles are nothing special, people just want them for novelty. I'll give you three thousand taels of silver and buy all the candles in your shop. You can make something else to give to your customers."
Chu Mingyu unconsciously looked at Jiang Tangtang and saw her winking at him imperceptibly. He smiled and said, "Then after I sell the candles to you, I'll find someone to buy a batch of candles to give to everyone."
"No!" Lin Wanning said, "You can't send scented candles anymore."
"What does that mean?" Chu Mingyu asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Is there something wrong with my candle?"
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, just don't give candles to customers in your shop anymore."
Lin Wanning said, and then added: "It can't be given away, nor can it be sold. In addition, I will give you another 1,000 taels of silver, and you take me to see the person who sold you the candles."
Chu Mingyu looked at Jiang Tangtang again.
I have to say, when Jiang Tangtang heard that she was offering so much money, she was quite moved.
But after hearing Miss Lin's request, it is not difficult to imagine what she will ask for when she sees me.
I think it’s similar to the request she made to Chu Mingyu.
Pay money to buy it out, and such candles will never appear in the world again.
She didn't understand why she did this, but she didn't want to. When Chu Mingyu looked over again, Jiang Tangtang shook her head inaudibly.
Chu Mingyu said, "Miss Lin, I'm so sorry. That expert's whereabouts are so elusive. I was lucky to be able to buy this candle. I don't know where to find him!"
"You!" Lin Wanning said angrily, "Are you kidding me? You just said you were going to look for him again and bought candles to give him to the shop."
Chu Mingyu suppressed her temper and said, "Ms. Lin, you misunderstood. I just proposed an idea, but I didn't say that it could actually be purchased."
"Really?" Lin Wanning continued to raise the price. The price was ridiculously high. Chu Mingyu was afraid of being cheated, so he didn't dare to agree.
"What a fool! No wonder he was almost crushed by Jingfu Building!"
Lin Wanning was furious and stormed out of the private room. She immediately ordered her servants to buy at a price of one hundred taels per order. She planned to use the most foolish method to take all the scented candles in Jiuxia Silver House for herself.
Many customers had already taken a fancy to the jewelry in Jiuxia Silver Shop and came to buy things. In addition, with the presence of someone like Lin Wanning who had ulterior motives and was very wealthy, by the time the silver shop closed at night, more than half of the jewelry in the shop had been sold out.
