Chapter 71: Too cheap? The price of the high-end gift box has doubled!
The plaque of Xianglaier's shop was written by Ding Xiaoqiu himself. The handwriting is recognizable at a glance and is extremely beautiful. There is a large double jade bracelet pattern painted next to it.
The decoration of the entire shop is also unique.
Qin Yuwei specially designed several modern-style bar counters, but they are made of wood, which blend cleverly with the surrounding antique decorations.
The bar is mainly used for guests to ask questions and try samples. It is also filled with bouquets of flowers picked in the morning and some small snacks such as dried fruits and candied fruits.
In short, it feels like home.
The shop has now hired a lot of new people, all young girls, wearing Xianglai's uniform long skirts, each of them is dignified and generous, with a decent smile.
Seeing Qin Yuwei come in, the shopkeeper Zhang Sigu immediately came over to greet her.
"Miss Qin, you are here."
Qin Yuwei had instructed that people in the shop should not call her "Boss", but just call her Miss.
Except for Zhang Sigu and Lin Erjie, no one in the shop knew that Qin Yuwei was the owner of this shop.
Qin Yuwei nodded, and went around to the back door of the shop with Zhang Sigu, and then went up to the second floor.
The second floor is where she handles things, and only she can open the lock here.
Aunt Zhang Si followed in, closed the door, and said respectfully:
"A few days ago, Miss Liu insisted on returning the goods, saying that she saw the servants in the mansion also using our Xianglaier's things, and she felt that our family was too low-class and not worthy of her."
Qin Yuwei frowned. What's wrong?
Aunt Zhang hesitated and said:
"Boss, our products are of high quality, but the prices are really... too affordable." Aunt Zhang said as tactfully as possible.
For example, the Liuyun face cream that costs two taels of silver for a bottle, in the past, she would not even dare to think about it!
But I didn’t expect that at such a price, every batch would be sold out in less than half a day after it was produced.
On the first day when everything was snatched away, Zhang Sigu said: Poverty must have limited my imagination.
Day 2: Are these people crazy? They are not applying face cream, they are applying silver on their faces!
Day 3: People are still buying it even though it’s so expensive. It seems we are too conservative.
What Zhang Sigu meant was that the price could be raised further.
Qin Yuwei flatly refused. She couldn't afford to be part of a black-hearted brand whose technology hadn't been upgraded yet whose prices were rising faster than a rocket.
She has to save face!
However, she knew exactly what those rich girls were thinking.
Isn’t it because they think the things are useful, but the price makes them unable to show them off?
"Go to the kiln factory and tell them to start producing a new batch of porcelain bottles today. The color of the bottles should be different from the previous ones, and some patterns should be added on them so that the difference can be seen at a glance.
Let’s customize a batch of gift boxes and package our products as gorgeously as possible.”
Aunt Zhang asked carefully, "What about the price...?"
"Double it." Qin Yuwei said lightly.
Aunt Zhang smacked her lips. Double the price...that bottle would be four taels of silver!
Ordinary people earn about this much money in a year!
“The gift boxes are our high-end custom-made ones, and the price of the regular ones remains the same. Both series are on display in the store.
Instruct the girls to explain to customers that the contents of the high-end and regular models are the same, and let the customers choose for themselves. "
"Ah? Then who would be willing to spend money on such an expensive one?"
Qin Yuwei raised the corners of her lips, "Don't worry, it will be there."
In a city as big as Jiangzhou, how could it be without leeks who are willing to spend money to buy face?
Zhang Sigu's words did remind her.
If you want to make big money, you have to make money from rich people!
…
Qin Yuwei left the shop and walked towards the academy, when she suddenly saw two familiar figures.
A physically uncomfortable nausea arose uncontrollably.
"What are you doing here?" she said coldly to Wei.
Qin Hu stood behind Wei, impatiently picking his ear with his little finger.
The coat he was wearing was a little dirty, and even the buttons were buttoned incorrectly, so the coat hung crookedly on his body, looking weird.
He is now a gangster who lives a life of drinking, whoring and gambling.
Wei had a smile on his face and was talking about irrelevant topics.
Qin Yuwei frowned: "If you have something to say, just say it."
If you have to fart, do it now.
Wei hesitated for a long time before he opened his mouth and asked about her birth date.
As a stepmother, of course she couldn't remember the birthday of Qin Yuwei, this burden.
"Does my birth date have anything to do with you?"
"Well, well... it's nothing..."
Wei hesitated, but Qin Hu had lost his patience.
"Oh, Mr. Zhou from the bank has taken a fancy to you and wants to have your birth date and horoscope matched.
Hurry up, it is your blessing to be favored by Mr. Zhou, don't waste time!"
Wei nudged Qin Hu with his elbow and smiled at Qin Yuwei:
"Yes, he's the boss of the bank, you'll have a great life if you marry him!
Don’t worry, you don’t have to worry about other things, your mother will definitely take care of it for you.
Don't hesitate. There's a long line of girls who want to marry into the Zhou family. They've chosen you because you're beautiful and you're a student!
Let's settle this matter early, so that we can give an explanation to your dead father..."
Qin Yuwei was so angry that she laughed.
If Liuyun cream could exfoliate, she really wanted to give Wei a bottle, otherwise it would be a waste of such a thick face.
She simply told Wei to stop dreaming.
"We agreed to keep to ourselves. We have nothing to do with each other. What does it have to do with you whether I get married or not?"
Wei was anxious, and blurted out what he was thinking: "Why is it okay? You are still registered in our family!"
"Hu Zi will get married and buy land in two years!
Why can't you help your brother!"
"Yes, he is your own son. He can't marry and can't farm. Don't you think about why you are so useless?" Qin Yuwei said coldly, her attitude was very obvious.
Brother? He looks older than me!
Qin Hu couldn't stand his mother's nagging, so he pushed Wei aside and looked down at Qin Yuwei as if she were a commodity.
The reason why we keep this sister at home is because of him.
"Shame on you, huh? I'm warning you to be honest, or I won't be polite to you—"
"Who do you think you are, talking to me like that?"
Qin Yuwei narrowed her eyes and looked at him. It seemed that those kids didn't go easy on Qin Hu when they asked the group of little beggars to beat him up.
He should be beaten until he is paralyzed and has a crooked nose and squinting eyes!
Qin Yuwei tilted her head slightly, as if she was looking at an ant.
"In broad daylight, I want to see what you dare to do.
Although I am only a student, I have also achieved a good reputation. If you dare to touch me, you will be punished more severely.
The government office is on this street. If you are not afraid of being thrown in jail for life, give it a try!"
Her voice was not loud, but the pressure from her eyes made Qin Hu feel a little weak for a moment.
Wei quickly pulled her son aside. She knew that her only bargaining chip with Qin Yuwei was her advantage in household registration.
A stepmother is still a mother, and she is also the elder that Qin Yuwei is nominally supposed to support.
As long as she doesn't agree, Qin Yuwei will never be able to completely leave this family!
"Oh, you kid..." Wei began to say nice things and glanced at the shop behind Qin Yuwei.
"If your mother hadn't worked so hard to raise you and let you study, would you have had the opportunity to work as a clerk in such a good shop?"
