Wei Weiwei found a summer dress she liked. It was made of high-quality silk unique to Yunsang City in the cultivation world. The light blue dress was embroidered with defensive runes using a small amount of shark silk, making it both durable and practical.
The dress, originally priced at 488 low-grade spirit stones, was discounted to 292.08 spirit stones after a 40% discount. The shop assistant rounded it down to zero, and Wei Weiwei, who hadn't bought any new clothes in a long time, was very happy.
So she turned around and chose two sets of light winter fur coats and a men's belt with high-quality mermaid silk inscriptions for herself, totaling 992 low-grade spirit stones.
Xue Shan watched from the side, clicking her tongue in amazement. Sure enough, girls from aristocratic families were wealthier.
"Sister Shan, don't shake your head." Wei Weiwei also felt that she had spent too much and explained to Xue Shan, "I didn't buy all of these for myself. When I go home to visit my family next time, I will bring some things from Xianpin Pavilion to my mother and brother to share with them. They will be happy for a long time."
Zhu Yi stood in front of the clothes rack, looking thoughtfully at the fox fur coats.
"Sister Shan, what do you think of the quality of these winter clothes?" Zhu Yi pulled Xue Shan over to look at the winter clothes with her.
Xue Shan carefully touched the sample winter clothes and nodded: "It is indeed lighter and warmer than what we used to wear."
“Yes, I think when we come out to buy things for our junior brothers and sisters, the quality can’t be too bad. Although the things from Xianzhen Pavilion are a bit more expensive, their quality is also good!” Zhu Yi began to persuade Xue Shan with great effort.
Xue Shan looked conflicted and whispered, "Junior Sister, although Master Miaoyin left us a lot of spirit stones, which is enough for us to buy these things, wouldn't it be too extravagant?"
Zhu Yi disagreed, saying, "Sister Shanshan, we're not just wasting money buying these things. A good quality coat can last us a long time, but if we buy a bad one, we'll throw it away after a short while. Buying clothes all the time is a waste."
"Besides, our young disciples will also be going out to gain experience in the future. If we buy them some good quality clothes now, they will not only look good but also have practicality when they go out!"
Wei Weiwei nodded repeatedly, "That makes sense. When you're out and about, you have to pay attention to your clothes. I have an uncle who loves to collect high-quality clothes. As he said, he once accidentally wandered into a glacial secret realm and was trapped there for more than half a year. If it weren't for the fact that the clothes he usually wears are extremely light and warm, he might have frozen to death in that glacial secret realm."
“Yes, yes, let’s pick some high-quality items with inscriptions and get some good equipment for those kids. It will also help solve some of their problems in life.” Zhu Yi nudged Xue Shan. “Thinking about it this way, it’s not a waste.”
With both junior sisters so eager, Xue Shan gave in and gritted her teeth to buy it!
Zhu Yi asked the shop assistant if they still had any clothes that were popular in previous years. Her obvious intention to buy a lot of outdated clothes left the shop assistant speechless.
The waiter patiently led the three of them to the waiting room in the back hall.
He thoughtfully served the three girls some tea, and then went to the warehouse manager's office. He found a lot of stock clothes that had been piled up over the years, including summer dresses and winter clothes. He and his men carried about ten large boxes back and forth.
Wei Weiwei happily led Xue Shan to pick out clothes. After all, she came from a prestigious family, and although she hadn't worn many fine clothes and fabrics, she was still quite knowledgeable about them.
"This red flowing fairy dress has speed runes, making it perfect for girls to wear when they go out to fight monsters!"
"Wow! Sister Shanshan, look! This is a winter coat made of Tianshui duck down! I had one when I was little; it was a gift from my brother for my birthday. This kind of material is light and warm, and it doesn't look bulky at all! Our Hehuan Sect's young disciples will definitely look very smart in it..."
Over here, Zhu Yi has already added Yu Lingtong to the shop assistant's contacts.
This shop assistant, with his handsome features, is named Su Nuo and is an inner disciple of the Luoxia Sect.
Su Nuo's uncle is the manager of a branch of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion. When he is not on a sect mission, he comes here to work and earn spirit stones. Every time a shop assistant runs a errand, he gets a sales commission.
“Fairy Zhuyi, although the styles of these clothes are not the most fashionable at the moment, the materials, craftsmanship, and inscriptions are all of the highest quality, so we can’t push the price down too much.”
Su Nuo disagreed with her buying two hundred sets of clothes at a 30% discount.
Zhu Yi smiled and said, "Senior Brother Su, these clothes are all leftovers from previous years, some of them are even unique pieces. It's not easy to put them out for sale. Rather than letting them gather dust and get infested with insects in the warehouse, why don't you sell them to me at a lower price?"
“Junior Sister Zhu, you are mistaken. Our Immortal Treasure Pavilion’s storerooms are all blessed with spirit arrays, so they are the cleanest and most insect-free. Although these clothes are not easy to sell individually, they are not easy to sell at a 30% discount either.” Su Nuo paused. As a grown man, he felt a little embarrassed to see three cute little girls in front of him bargaining with him.
While Wei Weiwei was picking out clothes, she turned around to look at Zhu Yi bargaining. She thought that a 60% discount was already a good deal, but Zhu Yi, relying on the large amount she was buying, immediately asked for a 30% discount, trying to cut the price in half!
In her family, bargaining is something the housekeeper does; she's never experienced it. If she were Su Nuo, she probably wouldn't even want to negotiate the deal...
Xue Shan lowered her head and quietly picked out clothes. She felt that her junior sister had changed a lot. In the past, her junior sister was delicate and timid, and she would just keep her head down and work hard to cultivate every day. She was aloof and unwilling to talk much with others.
Now, since the destruction of the Hehuan Sect, Junior Sister has grown a lot. Zhu Yi can now not only bravely introduce her strengths to the elders in the main hall of the Tianlan Sect, but also bargain with shopkeepers in places like the Immortal Treasure Pavilion.
Xue Shan couldn't help but reflect on herself. Was she, the senior sister, too useless? She was usually not one to talk much, so shouldn't she be the one to negotiate the price?
Zhu Yi and Su Nuo were locked in a stalemate for a long time, with Su Nuo refusing to budge an inch. "Junior Sister Zhu, a 30% discount is too low. Our shop has to cover the cost of making the clothes and the cost of storing them. A 30% discount is really not enough to cover our costs."
"So, Senior Brother Su, what price can you offer us?" Zhu Yi had been haggling for a while, and she felt that a 30% discount was a bit too much, but they had their eyes on these clothes, so they would try to negotiate the price down as much as possible.
After a moment's thought, Su Nuo stretched out his palm in front of Zhu Yi and said gently, "It's still 60% off, no lower than that. We also have some silk fabrics in our shop that we can give to you for free. They're perfect for making shoes and socks."
Zhu Yi choked: This is the style of big brands! Su Nuo really knows what she's doing; even if she buys in bulk, he won't give her a discount.
“In business, there are no secrets. Even clothes that have been sitting in the warehouse for a long time can’t be sold too cheaply. Everything must be done properly. If the prices of the things sold by our Xianzhen Pavilion are too low, our business will be much easier in the future.”
Zhu Yi expressed her understanding, but she was still a little upset: Why is it that other people can bargain so easily when they time-travel, like they're getting a bargain? Why can't she get a discount when it's her turn?
"Tonight, everything at our Immortal Treasure Pavilion will be 40% off, that's it, no changes allowed." Su Nuo said sincerely, a smile in her eyes.
Xue Shan, who was standing to the side, thought that Zhu Yi might give up if the price couldn't be negotiated. Just as she silently put down the clothes in her hand and was about to leave, Zhu Yi's crisp and decisive voice came.
“Okay, 40% off. We plan to buy one hundred sets of summer clothes and one hundred sets of winter clothes. How much fabric can Senior Brother Su give us as a gift? If the gifts are good enough, the three of us sisters won't have to go to other places. We also want to buy one hundred jade spirit tokens…”
