Chapter 280: Customize One Hundred Rules (Please Vote)
Jason developed a strong interest in Suzhou embroidery and expressed his desire to visit the local area.
Chen Jintao said that she couldn't accompany him, so he had to go alone. Jason didn't mind, and he was embarrassed to let others waste his time to accompany him.
Jason's eyes have been opened. He used to think that there was nothing good in China, but now he realizes that his vision was too narrow. It's not that China has no good things, it's just that they are hidden too tightly. Or it's not that they are hidden too tightly. To be precise, there is no need to take them out at all. This is definitely a dimensionality reduction attack.
For a fashion designer, he usually has to do all the work by himself, but he has never seen anyone who can do embroidery to such a level. The Guo family is now more mechanized, and even the only embroidery they have was passed down from China. Compared with the craftsmanship left by their ancestors, it is really dwarfed by the giant.
Chen Jintao was very satisfied with the shock she brought to Jason. These foreigners often think that their country is great. In fact, the truly good things in China are simply incomparable to them. If she gave them some appropriate shock, they probably wouldn't say such things when they meet next time.
However, what Shen Jintao didn't know was that Jason didn't leave immediately. He went to Xiao Hongying's clothing store again.
Of course, he originally wanted to leave directly from here, but he didn't expect to come across such a store with a unique decoration style, so he thought about going in to take a look.
This time he no longer wanted to go in to watch the fun of it, but instead went there with an attitude of learning. Fortunately, he thought so.
You can tell who designed the clothes here at a glance. Although compared to the designs that Chen Jintao made for Lowe, the clothes here appear much more low-key and simple, you can still see the design techniques, and even a simple design can look good with the right little touches.
This was Xiao Hongying's first time doing business with a foreigner. She looked at Jason in surprise and said, "Sir, are you buying clothes for the women in your family? How old are they? I can give you some advice!"
Shen Jintao had trained them on this set of sales talk before, telling them to be patient when facing customers and not to think that they are superior as sellers than as buyers. Even if they are the owners of the store, if no customers come to the store, the store will be closed sooner or later.
Jason smiled and nodded. "Let me take a look first. If there's a style I like, I'll buy it. You go ahead and do your thing."
He often comes to China. He doesn't speak fluent Chinese, but it's pretty good and can be understood.
Xiao Hongying nodded. Jin Tao had said before that some customers don't like to be followed by others. They would prefer to choose by themselves. Although this is a man, once he enters the store, he is her customer and must be treated well.
She turned around and made a cup of tea. This tea was not an expensive thing. It was sent to her by her relatives in her hometown who had picked golden chrysanthemums and dried them. There were a lot of them. Later, Chen Jintao said that this thing was good, so she asked her to help contact her hometown to purchase it. The relatives there were also very happy. After all, in their eyes, this thing had no cost at all. It was rare that people in the city would want it.
But as long as there are people willing to buy, they are of course willing to sell. When they are not working, the whole family goes to pick them. After all, it is not a hard job and even a three-year-old child can do it. They can save a lot in a month and it is easy to exchange them for a dozen yuan.
"Sir, please drink some tea and take your time to choose!"
After Xiao Hongying gave the tea to Jason, she returned to the bar. She didn't stare at Jason all the time, only glanced at him occasionally.
Jason walked to the shelf where small commodities were hung and took down a handkerchief with shock. On it was embroidered a lifelike peony flower. The flower seemed to be blooming on the white handkerchief, which was stunningly beautiful.
"This...this handkerchief is so beautiful. How much do you want to sell it for?"
Seeing that Jason liked it, Xiao Hongying only took a look and quoted the price, "Five Chinese Yuan!"
Five dollars seemed very cheap to Jason. He didn't expect that he could buy such a good thing in China for such a small amount of money. But he still had a question in his mind, "Is this handkerchief handmade?"
Xiao Hongying nodded, "Yes, this is a collaboration between some ladies who are very good at embroidery and our store. In fact, with an embroiderer like her, it is not impossible to sell it at a high price just by changing the material of the handkerchief. The reason why this handkerchief is cheaper is entirely because the fabric itself is ordinary, and the value lies in the embroidery."
Xiao Hongying told the truth.
Jason's eyes lit up, and he suddenly looked like a cat that smelled fish. "Then if I want to customize a batch of those high-end handkerchiefs you mentioned, is that okay?"
Jason felt that this thing would be particularly respectable if he took it back to his country as a gift to his partners, and it might even open up an unusual sales channel.
"I really don't have the final say on this. I need to ask the embroiderers for their opinions. Besides, the price of custom-made products is not low. A handkerchief is estimated to cost around 20 yuan. If you can afford it, I will help you contact them."
Xiao Hongying said that in fact, she felt that most people really could not accept this price. Twenty yuan could buy an ordinary coat, so who would spend a high price on a handkerchief? It was really a waste of money.
"Sure, if possible, I would like to order 100 directly!"
Jason's eyes sparkled green, as if Xiao Hongying had not said anything about discussing it, but had directly agreed to it.
Xiao Hongying: ...
One hundred...
She was a little dizzy. You know, the price of that kind of handkerchief was twenty yuan, and they only needed ten yuan to buy it. It was just because not many people bought that kind of handkerchief, so Liu Jinping didn't do much.
Jason felt that the price was really affordable. For only two thousand yuan he could get one hundred such finely hand-embroidered handkerchiefs. It would be such an honor to take them back home!
Xiao Hongying had no choice but to call the family compound, and soon Liu Jinping was called to the mail room.
After hearing what Xiao Hongying said, Liu Jinping felt that her brain was not enough. For one hundred such handkerchiefs, the embroiderers she found only needed three yuan each, and she sold them to Xiao Hongying for ten yuan each. Excluding the cost of the raw materials of the handkerchiefs, it only took a few days for her to earn a huge sum of six hundred yuan. It is no exaggeration to say that one pound of this money is enough for the girls in her family to go to school. Combined with what she had earned before, she found that she really didn't have to worry about her future life.
"If you're sure, I'll take the job!"
Liu Jinping could not hide her excitement, and her tone was filled with joy.
Xiao Hongying hung up the phone after agreeing, turned to look at Jason, and suggested in a businesslike manner, "Sir, they can take this job, but you need to pay a deposit. After all, this order is not small. How about I give you a receipt?"
