"This cotton is cheap, but you still have the seeds in it, and this..." Xu Ning gave him a look that showed they both understood, and continued, "The cotton in the shop is a bit more expensive, but it's sun-dried cotton, so the weight and quality are different."
"Little girl, don't talk nonsense, this cotton of mine is good cotton!"
"Cotton is certainly good, but since you don't have to pay rent, the price is really expensive!"
"That's right, it's better to go to the store and buy dry cotton than to buy your wet cotton. No, no, no!" Several women who were looking at cotton immediately responded and were about to leave.
Of course, she didn't really leave, so the vendor took the opportunity to pull her along, "Look, girl, what price do you think is suitable?"
"Of course, the more you buy, the cheaper the price will be!"
"That's right. I think your cotton is too expensive at seven cents per pound!" After Xu Ning finished speaking, a woman immediately told him the price. Xu Ning looked at her in surprise and immediately fell silent.
The woman who interrupted looked at Xu Ning after she finished speaking. Seeing that she didn't say anything, she thought she was right and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see the hawker.
"These seven cents are my purchase price!" the vendor said with a pained look on his face. The woman immediately said, "So, will you sell it or not? If not, we'll leave."
"That's right, how can you be so unscrupulous in doing business that you actually make a profit of a three-cent difference!"
"That's right, I think you're definitely not telling the truth. You can definitely make some money from the seven cents! Young man, I think you look honest. Just seven cents, if you agree, then we'll buy it!"
"Yes! We'll buy it for seven cents!"
"Oh, my dear ladies, I'm going to lose everything!"
"Just tell me whether you'll sell it or not!" Seeing that he still didn't budge, the woman knew that this was the reserve price. A smile appeared on her face, and her words softened a little. "Meeting is fate. If you buy it this time, we'll buy it from you next time. Next time, it's whatever price you say, and we won't hesitate!"
"Well... alright! Just for that one word from you! I'll sell it! Just consider it a good relationship!"
For a moment, everyone on both sides had smiling faces, and soon half of the cotton was cleared out.
Xu Ning pulled Old Lady Xu to watch from the side, and there were a few others who were watching like Xu Ning and the others.
The vendor politely sent a group of women away before approaching Xu Ning with a smile. "Little girl, there's not much cotton left. Do you want to pick some now?"
"Is it also seven coins per pound?"
"Of course it's the same!"
"Then there's no need to talk about it. You don't have enough cotton. I think we should go to the store to choose! Grandma, let's go!"
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't go, don't go! Little girl, the price can be negotiated. If you want more, it can naturally be lower!" The peddler immediately stepped forward to stop Xu Ning and continued to lobby with a polite smile on his face.
"Boss, you don't look like you want to do business with us. I told you from the beginning that we want more, but you still gave me a price of seven cents. Do you think we still need to talk?" The way Xu Ning suppressed his expression really scared the vendor.
"What do you think, girl? How much is appropriate?"
"Boss, since you're the one running this business, you're the one setting the price. If you satisfy us, we'll be willing to pay. There's a saying that goes, 'Buying something is all about satisfaction, right?'"
"Yes, yes, yes! Then girl, look at this price?" The vendor made a gesture to Xu Ning while blocking with his body.
Only the Xu family could see this gesture. Xu Ning and Old Mrs. Xu didn't react much, but Xu Feng widened his eyes.
Wow, my second sister is really amazing! She actually cut the price in half!
"Boss, how many kilograms is this?" Xu Ning knew that the vendor could offer this price so he must be making a profit, but it might not be much.
However, if she wanted more and didn't need him to ship it, it wasn't impossible for the price to go down even further.
