Chapter 067 Save More Money

Tang Yuan also saw the landslide. After climbing to the top of the mountain and looking back, he felt extremely relieved.

Although the collapsed area was not where she was standing just now, it could bury the boy. If this was the case, even if she hurried down, she would not be able to save him.

No one would come up at this time, so after entering the house, she closed the door, leaving only a crack as before, returned to the game space and took a hot bath, then let this body return to the "resting area" to rest and restore her energy.

It was getting late, but the boiler room was still working. She sat in the game room and read a book until the work was over. Then she returned to Tang Yuan's body and left the boiler room to rest.

The next morning was a new day. She took a look at Xiaomei's condition and made sure that her energy had not dropped significantly. Then she used Jiaqi's body to leave the residence and walked towards the handmade sweater shop.

Mother Xue was also in the store at this time. When she saw Tang Yuan appear, she greeted her with a smile.

After Tang Yuan greeted her, he took something out of his bag and said, "I told Shiqi before that if there are any extra strawberries, I should give them to her."

Xue Shiqi heard her words and immediately jumped in front of her: "Are there more? Wow, these strawberries are so plump."

"The weather is warm, and the strawberries are growing well," Tang Yuan handed the strawberries to her with a smile, "In about a month, the price of strawberries will come down, and then you can buy strawberries yourself in the market."

"Strawberries from other places are not as delicious as yours," Xue Shiqi said while eating strawberries. "By the way, the business in my store has not declined. Many people come to buy small ornaments. Someone even wanted to customize one yesterday. I am drawing the design and will give it to you when it is finished."

"Okay," Tang Yuan nodded, glanced at Mother Xue, turned around and rummaged through his backpack, "It just so happens that Auntie is here, I'd like to trouble Auntie to give me some advice and see if I can sell this thing for a high price."

What she took out was none other than a wallet made with the patterns embroidered by Aunt Wei. The three patterns had different levels of complexity, and the wallets made were also completely different styles. The simple patterns were used on basic small wallets, while the complex patterns were used on slightly larger wallets.

Embroidered bags were actually quite common at that time, but they were mostly used on large bags. From Tang Yuan's perspective, they were very characteristic of the era.

The wallets she makes are all selected by her, with futuristic designs, and the ones she makes now are still the same.

In addition, Aunt Wei's craftsmanship is really good, and she has considered the size of the wallet in advance, so the finished wallet looks like a specially customized one, and the positions of all the patterns are just right.

However, Xue's mother was originally a dressmaker, and Tang Yuan had asked her for "guidance" early on. What she first cared about was not the pattern, but the material of the wallet. After touching it, she said, "This material is good. If you use this material to embroider and then make a wallet, you can sell it for a slightly higher price. How do you plan to price it?"

"This one is 50 yuan, this one is 80 yuan, and the most complicated one is 150 yuan," Tang Yuan said, pointing at the three wallets. "I can guarantee that each one is unique and there will be no duplication. But I plan to sell the wallets in Shiqi's store. As long as they can be sold, I can give a commission of 10 yuan for each wallet."

"I don't want it," Xue Shiqi quickly swallowed the strawberry and immediately said, "You can sell it in my store, but I don't want your commission."

"If you don't want it, I'll have to find another place, and the rent will be very expensive every month," Tang Yuan pulled Xue Shiqi's hand, "Just agree to it. If you don't agree, we can't cooperate well."

Xue Shiqi said frankly: "You can sell it, I won't charge you any money."

Tang Yuan sighed: "But I would be embarrassed if I did that, and we should just put things aside so that we don't end up arguing with each other in the future."

Xue Shiqi was about to say something, but her mother spoke first: "Just listen to Jiaqi. Business is business, and it's not a bad thing to do business clearly. Ten yuan is not a lot, it's just a tea fee. Shiqi, your store is well-known, and it's really suitable for you to sell handmade wallets."

As we were talking, a customer came into the store. He started looking around and asked, "Shiqi, do you have any new products in your store?"

"Yes, yes," Xue Shiqi stood up and took the customer to see the goods on the shelf. However, the customer looked around and didn't like anything. She immediately turned around and picked up the three wallets on the table, "Look at this, this is new goods, all hand-embroidered. Look at the technique, it takes many years of experience to embroider like this."

"That's good. How much is it?" the guest talked to Xue Shiqi.

Xue Shiqi quoted a price and repeated the introduction Tang Yuan had said before. The customer hesitated for a moment, then took two wallets, one worth fifty and one worth one hundred and fifty yuan, from her hand. He then took out two hundred yuan from his bag and put it in Xue Shiqi's hand: "These are the only two. They are definitely unique and there won't be another one exactly the same?"

"Sure," Xue Shiqi glanced at Tang Yuan, and replied affirmatively when she nodded, "It is definitely unique."

Then they take out beautiful packaging bags from the store and put the items chosen by the customers in them.

The customer nodded in satisfaction: "The items in your store are much richer than before. You need to stock more in the future. I will come back to your store in a few days."

"Okay, take care," Xue Shiqi escorted the guest to the door, watched the guest leave, turned around and sat across from Xue's mother and Tang Yuan, "It's really good, it was sold out in a short time, this business is promising."

"Then it's settled," Tang Yuan smiled, and then said, "Look, actually my products are sold through your place, and you have also contributed. If it weren't for your introduction, the customer just now would have left, so I still have to give you a commission. Just think of it as me treating you to a bowl of sugar water. I don't hire too many people to embroider, and it's only about ten yuan a day, which is enough for a bowl of basic sugar water."

Xue Shiqi glanced at Mother Xue, and nodded under her smiling gaze: "Okay, then I will drink an extra bowl of sugar water every day."

As soon as these words were spoken, Tang Yuan and Mother Xue both laughed.

After chatting for a while, Tang Yuan mentioned the materials for making wallets and tentatively asked Mother Xue.

Mother Xue understood what she meant. After thinking for a moment, she said, "This is a small matter. I'll ask some people to go to some high-end clothing factories. You can go around. The scraps of cloth are not very useful. If you go and buy them, they will probably agree. If I go and say hello, they will probably be wary and think I have some ideas."

"Of course, I will ask myself," Tang Yuan nodded immediately, "Then thank you very much, Auntie."

"It's not a problem. You've helped Shiqi a lot. If it weren't for you, her store wouldn't have much business right now, and she would have to pester me about this and that, which is so annoying." Although she said this, Mother Xue looked at Xue Shiqi with a gentle look.

Xue Shiqi pouted: "Mommy, please don't poke at my shortcomings."

"Hahahaha, fine, fine, I won't say anything. But tell me if I'm right. If it weren't for Jiaqi, you'd be worried to death right now," Xue's mother reached out and touched Xue Shiqi's forehead. "How could you be so happy like you are now?"

"That's boring, right? I have nothing to sell, and I can't design new patterns. It's really boring," Xue Shiqi said, then she remembered something and took Tang Yuan's arm. "Can I design embroidery patterns for you?"

"But I can't afford the design fee." Tang Yuan said deliberately.

"It's okay. You gave me some money for the dessert, so just use that to pay for it. I really like designing, but the patterns for knitting sweaters can't be complicated. I'll help you design the embroidery pattern, and you can find someone to embroider it and sell it in my store, okay?" Xue Shiqi looked at Tang Yuan, waiting for her reply expectantly.

Tang Yuan glanced at Mother Xue, and nodded after receiving her eye signal: "No problem, I couldn't be happier to have a great designer like you to help me."

Xue Shiqi's style is more Western, which cannot be completely integrated with the style of embroidery. However, at that time, many people in Hong Kong also tended to prefer Western styles. Her designs would definitely satisfy the preferences of some people, so she didn't have to worry about not being able to sell them.

Although Aunt Wei designs embroidery according to the shapes of the scraps of cloth and the shape of the wallet, making each one different, the style is still her style. Now adding another style will make it easier to design embroidered wallets for sale in the store.

Having been asked to help with the design, Xue Shiqi was inspired again. She returned to the counter with great interest, took out a full set of painting tools, and began to design the style she liked.

Tang Yuan and Xue's mother smiled at each other, and sat and chatted for a while, until Xue's mother had to leave for something. Tang Yuan also stood up, said something to Xue Shiqi from the immersive design department, and left the handicraft shop with a smile.

When she was leaving, another guest came in. She listened from a distance and when she heard the guest asking about his wallet, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

Today's three wallets total two hundred and eighty, minus the commission for Xue Shiqi, there are still two hundred and fifty left. Aunt Wei embroidered three pieces in three days, which is equivalent to her selling wallets here. On average, she can earn eighty a day, and two thousand four a month.

The amount is still not too much, but taking into account the income from several businesses, she conservatively estimates that she can earn at least 7,000 to 8,000 yuan a month, and when it is more, it is not a problem to earn more than 10,000 yuan.

In this era, this kind of income is definitely considered high-income.

If she buys one Rolex per month, she will definitely become a big Rolex collector in a few years.

If she continues to live like this, when she is old and has no money, she can make a living by selling Rolexes, which should be able to more or less meet her daily needs.

But it doesn't seem to be a good deal to turn yourself into a pauper just to buy a Rolex. You should buy something else. No matter how valuable a Rolex is, it is a consumable item that retains its value. It's better to save more money at this time.

You have to save the money and not have any more large outgoings.
