Fu Hongguo didn't expect the aunt to change the subject so quickly, but when someone asked a question, his previous frustration vanished.
She kept saying, "Sell, sell, sell, Auntie, I think you're a good person, so I won't try to fool you. This is the most popular electronic watch right now. This one looks high-end; the strap and dial are expensive. It's only 35 yuan."
This one is only 25 yuan, and the strap is even made of leather. Feel it.
This plastic watch strap is only 15 yuan, which is a great deal.
Upon hearing what Fu Hongguo said, the aunt immediately became interested.
The price of this electronic watch is one-fifth of the price of watches in department stores. With the savings of over a hundred yuan, you can buy more other things. In this way, the dowry seems much more affordable.
Seeing that she was interested, Fu Hongguo immediately untied the burlap sack that was placed to the side and took out a box containing a high-end electronic watch.
Then he opened the box in front of her, which made it look much more high-end and classy than the way he wore it on his hand.
Even compared to the mechanical watches in department stores, it doesn't seem to be much worse!
Fu Hongguo felt his mouth was almost dry from talking, but the other party remained silent, just staring at the digital watch in the box in his hand.
He was very uneasy, as the price he and his sister-in-law had agreed upon was the same price.
After all, he knew that the high-end ones he brought were only 12 yuan, but now they were selling for 35 yuan, which was a full 2 times the price!
If people find out, I'll be roasted alive!
However, his worries were clearly unnecessary.
The auntie only considered it for a moment before deciding, "Okay, give me one, um, two will do! But, could you give me a discount?"
Fu Hongguo shook his head repeatedly, remembering his sister-in-law's instructions.
"Auntie, it's not that I'm unwilling, but this is the latest product, and we don't have it here."
The price I'm selling it at is the lowest factory direct price; I'm definitely not taking advantage of you.
Hearing Fu Hongguo say this with such certainty, the auntie had only been habitually trying to bargain.
Seeing that he still wouldn't come down, he simply took out his money, bought two high-end electronic watches, and left.
The passersby who had initially seen the aunt haggling with Fu Hongguo were immediately drawn to the sight of the three watches on Fu Hongguo's wrist and the watches in the open box in his hand.
Seeing that the aunt readily paid for it, and hearing that such an electronic watch was so inexpensive, many people immediately became interested.
Nowadays, a worker's monthly salary is generally around 30 yuan.
There are better ones, and even higher-end ones.
However, that watch is a big deal; one of the three essential items for a wedding is the watch.
The cheapest ones cost almost 200 yuan, while the more expensive ones cost five or six hundred yuan.
That much money—even the money you save up all year round might not be enough to buy a watch like this.
These days, some people are selling electronic watches that look almost identical to those sold in department stores. The dial displays Arabic numerals, making it easy to read the time at a glance.
Compared to mechanical watches, many people find them much more convenient, and they can be bought for the price of a month's salary.
Even those who were just there to watch couldn't help but be tempted when they were told that the cheapest one was only 15 yuan.
