Chapter 40 Doing Business



Yan Ning nodded, "Of course, I just happened to bring some today, and I was planning to give them to my cousins.

But they were not at home today, so they were not sent out.

I'll let you choose now, and I'll send some more of theirs over later."

After Yan Ning finished speaking, he glanced at the secluded corner at the back, indicating that there was no one there, so they should go there to look.

The three of them walked to the wall.

Yan Ning opened the canvas bag and showed them what was inside.

Xie Yao and Yuan Nana looked into the canvas bag.

Wow!

What a beautiful hairpin.

What a beautiful bracelet.

What is this... What a beautiful necklace!

There are cotton socks in this color. I really want them.

Yuan Nana picked up a black shell and asked, "Xiao Ning, what is this?"

Yan Ning unscrewed the lid and introduced it to them: "This is the lipstick from Hong Kong. Look, open it like this.

Just swirl it until it looks like this, then apply a layer on your lips."

Yuan Nana looked at Yan Ning's lips, "Xiao Ning, is this the lipstick you're wearing?"

Yan Ning: "Yes, the color is beautiful! It is much better than the lipstick sold in the department store here.

And I found out before that this lipstick is waterproof.

The color won't fade when you eat or drink.

When you wash your face before going to bed at night, just wipe your mouth with a handkerchief and it will be clean."

Xie Yao also excitedly took out a lipstick from her canvas bag.

She works in a newspaper and has to wear light makeup every day, so she needs a lipstick like this!

"I want one. The color is so pretty."

Yuan Nana also took one and said, "I want one too."

Xie Yao picked up another small glass bottle and looked at it. It contained a light yellow liquid. "Xiao Ning, what is this?"

Yan Ning took the glass bottle, opened the lid and sprayed it in the air.

Yuan Nana and Xie Yao instantly smelled the fragrance of osmanthus.

"Is it perfume?"

There were not many domestically produced perfumes in the 1970s, and they were only sold in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai.

There are not many small cities like Tongshi.

Yan Ning nodded, "Yes, this one is osmanthus, the pink one is rose, the transparent one is jasmine, and there is another one with orange blossom."

Xie Yao couldn't let go of the bottle of rose perfume.

These things in Yan Ning's bag were so popular that she loved every one of them.

Yuan Nana took two bottles. Her mother liked osmanthus, so she bought a bottle of osmanthus as a gift for her mother and a bottle of jasmine for herself.

Finally watched everything.

Xie Yao bought two different hair ties, three different hairpins, two necklaces, a bracelet, two pairs of skin-colored cotton socks, a lipstick, and a bottle of perfume.

Yuan Nana bought three hair ties, three hairpins, three necklaces, three bracelets, three pairs of skin-colored cotton socks, a lipstick, and two bottles of perfume.

She mostly bought them and shared them with her mother.

Yan Ning set the retail price as:

Hair ties and hairpins are both 50 cents.

Bracelet and necklace.

Cotton socks are two yuan, and nylon socks are one yuan and fifty cents.

Lipstick is fifteen yuan a piece.

The perfume costs twenty yuan a bottle.

Xie Yao and Yuan Nana paid without hesitation.

After all, my family conditions are good, and I work and earn a salary to spend on myself.

I don't care too much about the money, after all, it's worth it.

Money can’t buy my happiness.

Yan Ning earned one hundred and twenty-three dollars and fifty cents.

Each of them was given a small white cloth bag to carry their belongings.

The bags are given away as a gift when you buy these things online.

After completing these two orders, Yan Ning's bag was half empty.

Yuan Nana looked at Yan Ning's canvas bag and felt a little jealous. "Xiao Ning, do you have more bags like this?"

Yan Ning: "This one is out of stock, but I have other styles, shoulder bags, crossbody bags, handbags, all made of leather.

My relative owns a shop in Hong Kong, specializing in wholesale sales of these things.

This time she brought me five.

If you like it, I can bring it over to you this afternoon to show you."

Yuan Nana and Xie Yao looked at each other and said in unison: "Okay, okay."

Xie Yao continued, "Then we'll be waiting for you at the entrance of the department store at 2 pm. You must come!"

Yan Ning smiled and nodded.

After they bought what they liked, they no longer had to squeeze at the counter to buy clothes.

After saying goodbye to Yan Ning, the two happily left the department store.

Yan Ning planned to continue shopping in other places.

She was about to leave the clothes shop when she was suddenly stopped by a little girl.

"Hello comrade, please wait a moment."

Yan Ning turned his head and looked over.

The person who called her was a girl wearing a light yellow blouse.

The girl saw Yan Ning looking at her and hurried to her side, "Comrade, I saw everything just now..."

Yan Ning looked at her with vigilance and caution.

The girl hurriedly explained: "Don't misunderstand me, I'm not going to report you, I just want to ask,

Could you give me some of your stuff?

Especially that lipstick and perfume, I'm planning a blind date soon!

I want to buy some to dress myself up.”

After the girl finished speaking, she looked at Yan Ning shyly.

Yan Ning smiled in understanding, "Women dress up to please themselves! Sometimes girls dress up not just for others to see,

It’s more for the sake of pleasing myself. If I look pretty, I’ll feel good too.”

The girl nodded excitedly, "You're right. I'll be happier when I dress up beautifully."
