Chapter 97
Su Jinyao agreed to come out, first looked at the girl carefully, then took out a small mirror from the bag and handed it to her, saying, "Sister, take a look, you are the most beautiful in this mirror." ”
The round-faced girl took it and took it, and the other girls next to her were also curious, so they said, "Let's take a look at it." You've got some mirrors to show us. ”
Su Jinyao smiled, took out the last mirror, handed it to one of the girls, and then said to the others: "There is only one left of what I have on me, if the sisters want it, I can go back and get it." ”
One of the girls said, "Then you can take it first, and if it's okay, we'll buy one." ”
But as soon as this girl's words were finished, the round-faced girl before directly took out five coins of silver and handed it to Su Jinyao, saying, "Don't say it, this mirror is really different, it looks much better than the mirror in my house." Take the five pennies, and the mirror will be mine. ”
The small mirror also sold for five dollars of silver, and there was no counteroffer, and the round-faced girl took the mirror and left.
As a result, the other girl who looked in the mirror was not to be outdone, and happily took the money and took the mirror away.
Women sometimes want to be different, and sometimes they have a strong herd mentality, that is, they also have what others have. But they have to get something different from others.
And the mirror sold by Su Jinyao can be said to be a person's reflection, only the mirror in her hand reflects herself as the best-looking, which absolutely satisfies the special psychology of women.
As a result, the girls who didn't have the mirror also asked Su Jinyao to bring the mirror over, and said, "Go ahead, we'll all wait to buy it." However, you have to take a good picture of yourself, and others will be ugly if they take it. ”
Su Jinyao smiled and said, "That's a certainty." Of course, your own things are the most suitable for yourself, and other people's things are not good enough. ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao looked at the faces and appearances of these girls, secretly wrote down their advantages and disadvantages, and then prepared to go back to get the mirror.
As soon as I went downstairs, two more girls came up and called Su Jinyao and said, "Little girl, you are selling mirrors?" I heard that the mirrors you sell are special, what are they, show us them. ”
"I've got four mirrors with me, they've all been sold, so I'll go back and get them now. There are a few sisters waiting upstairs, and if they want it, I'll bring two more. ”
The other girl flicked her sleeves and said, "Okay, let's go." Isn't it just five coins? The girls in our Red Sleeves Workshop don't look at it. ”
Su Jinyao secretly counted in her heart, there were a total of seven people who wanted mirrors upstairs and downstairs, and according to the five coins of silver for each mirror, she would have to have three or two halves of silver in the account.
Out of the back door of the Red Sleeve Fang, Su Jinyao walked briskly towards the street where she came before. After walking a few steps, I felt that it was not fast enough, so I simply trotted up.
This time she came, it has been more than half an hour since she made up and sales, and she was really afraid that she would be too late to go back, and the old woman who sold bronze mirrors left first.
Fortunately, there are only two streets on both sides, and you can reach it by turning a corner and running for a while. From a distance, Su Jinyao saw that the old woman was already packing her things. However, the stall is still there, but the bronze mirror is wrapped in cloth one by one, and it is being put into the baggage.
"Grandma, wait a minute." Su Jinyao shouted and ran over in one breath.
But this way here, Su Jinyao was also a little tired. Sit down on the horse beside the old woman, and first untie the bamboo tube behind her and drink a few sips of water.
The old woman saw that Su Jinyao was running in such a hurry, her little face was red, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead, so she asked, "Why are you in such a hurry, is it that the mirror has not been sold?" If you really want to quit, then quit. It's not easy for your little girl, you came out to beg for a living at such a young age, and naturally you don't know how hard it is to do business. However, I can't give you all of them, just two mirrors, okay? ”
Su Jinyao drank the water, and she didn't have time to answer for a while. When the old woman finished speaking, Su Jinyao also quenched her thirst, so she took the bamboo tube and said with a smile: "Grandma, I'm not here to return the mirror, but to buy the mirror." Don't clean up, put the mirrors out for me, and I'll pick a few more bronze mirrors. ”
"What? Still? Did you really sell all four mirrors? The old woman was also amazed.
You know, Su Jinyao has only been gone for more than half an hour. If she had been setting up a stall on the street all day, she might not have been able to sell the four bronze mirrors.
Su Jinyao nodded and said anxiously, "Grandma, you can take out the mirror quickly." I still have to have seven sides...... No, it's eight bronze mirrors. ”
"Hey, that's it. Take your pick. When the old woman heard that Su Jinyao was going to buy eight more mirrors, she was also secretly happy. You know, twelve bronze mirrors were sold at once, which is a big deal.
Su Jinyao also gasped, moved her maza, made do with the front of the stall, and began to carefully select the mirror.
Su Jinyao's memory is amazing, and she remembered the appearance and figure of the seven girls after seeing them. If you want to choose a mirror again, you should also choose according to the advantages and disadvantages of each of them. In this way, we can ensure that the people who take the photos are really good-looking.
This is a meticulous job, Su Jinyao picked out all the mirrors on this old woman's stall, and then selected the eight mirrors that she thought were the most satisfying.
After picking up, Su Jinyao said: "Grandma, you calculate the money, I have silver at this time, I will give you the silver directly." ”
"Yo, your business is really good." The old woman also had a smile on her face. But the reckoning didn't stop. He reckoned: "Each side of this bronze mirror is two pieces of silver, and the six sides are twelve pieces of silver; The small one is one and a half pennies on each side, and three pennies on both sides; It was fifteen pieces of silver, which was one or two and a half. As I said before, four copper mirrors will give you a hundred yuan cheaper, and now you buy eight copper mirrors for two hundred yuan cheaper. ”
Su Jinyao took out the silver from her pocket, handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and then wrapped the bronze mirror and was about to leave.
The old woman hurriedly stopped Su Jinyao and said, "Little girl, your business is so good, I don't have to wait for you for a while?" What if anyone else buys it? ”
Su Jinyao smiled when she heard this, and said, "Don't wait, it's enough to sell these today." Scarcity is expensive, and if you sell too much at once, it will be worthless. Grandma, I'm leaving. But maybe I'll come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and if there's any business like this, I'll come to you to buy a bronze mirror. ”
"That's okay, I'm setting up a stall here every day, little girl, if you still have such a big business, remember to come to my stall." After the old woman finished speaking, she thought for a while and said, "Little girl, it's not easy to see you running around, not to mention that you bought so many mirrors from me at one time, it stands to reason that I should give you a cheaper price." But the price I gave you before really didn't make much profit. I'll give you another ten copper plates, and you can buy two buns at noon to pad your stomach. ”
After speaking, the old woman counted out ten more copper plates from the money bag and handed them to Su Jinyao.
Su Jinyao smiled, and without refusing, she took it.
This money is similar to a kickback. Since the price can't be cheaper, give yourself some benefits, and you can be regarded as having the heart to make friends with her as a good customer, this old woman is still more open-minded. I'm afraid that I will meet that kind of stingy person, who obviously makes money, but still thinks that he has suffered a loss, and regrets not making more, such a person will never be able to make a fortune in his life.
Su Jinyao trotted all the way back to the Red Sleeves Workshop. This time, I entered through the back door with a familiar car, and saw that the girls who had been going to buy mirrors with her were already waiting for her on the first floor. And the round-faced girl who had already bought the mirror before was also there.
As soon as the round-faced girl saw Su Jinyao coming back, she smiled and said, "Little girl, your mirror is really interesting." I look good when I take a picture of someone else, and it really doesn't look so good when I take a picture of someone else, but my face hasn't changed, I just can't tell what's wrong. I have a good sister who went out early this morning and hasn't come back yet. I'd like to buy her a bronze mirror too, do you still have any inventory? ”
Su Jinyao shook her head when she heard this: "This sister, I'm really embarrassed, my stock of mirrors is really limited, and these sisters have ordered them before." Your good sister isn't here today, so let's do it next time. ”
Su Jinyao said this not because she didn't want the silver she had in hand, because she hadn't seen the girl either, and of course she didn't know what kind of mirror she needed, so she couldn't agree.
There is also the fact that she wants to take a long-term plan, so she can't move all the good things out at once. Since a woman's money is easy to make, she should always come and go. Sell one less mirror today, but next time, maybe there are other business opportunities.
The round-faced girl felt very regretful and asked Su Jinyao, "Then when will you come?" ”
"Estimated...... The day after tomorrow. Su Jinyao deliberately said that she would not come tomorrow, just to hang their appetite. When the time comes, if you have something special to come up with, you will definitely not worry about selling it again.
The round-faced girl immediately said, "Then you will come here first with a mirror the day after tomorrow." ”
"Okay, Mingcui, don't you have a mirror yourself, just let Zi Sakura wait." A few girls who had been waiting next to them were in a hurry, squeezing the round-faced girl away and surrounding the mirror that Su Jinyao wanted to set by herself.
Su Jinyao took out the mirror and divided it with these girls, and suddenly there was a sound of surprise. There are also several good girls who exchange photos with each other, and the effect is really different.
Suddenly, these girls also paid one after another, regardless of the size of the mirror, each of them was five dollars of silver.
Su Jinyao accepted the money and said to the round-faced girl named Mingcui: "I have to see it to know what kind of mirror she wears, I don't know what your friend looks like, even if she comes with a mirror, it may not be suitable for her." If she wants to buy it, let her wait for me the day after tomorrow, okay? ”
Ming Cui agreed, even if it was booked first.
Su Jinyao put away the silver and was about to leave. Then someone upstairs called her, "Little girl, you wait." ”
As soon as Su Jinyao looked up, she saw that she was a girl in red, tall and beautiful, but her complexion was not very good, a little yellow, and she looked a little haggard.
When she was upstairs before, Su Jinyao didn't see this girl, and she didn't know what this girl was looking for her, so she stopped and asked, "Is there something wrong with the girl?" ”
"Yes." The girl in red went downstairs and said, "I see that the makeup you painted for Miss Ming is very beautiful, and I want you to paint one for me too." ”
When Su Jinyao heard this, she hesitated. She didn't plan to rely on her skills to eat, and she should rely on her brains to make money. If you only rely on your craft, hunting, and killing people, you won't have everything. Moreover, how much money can you give for makeup by tipping? At most, it's a penny, and she sells a mirror for three cents.
Seeing that Su Jinyao was silent, the girl in red walked in front of Su Jinyao, first took out a piece of silver from her sleeve, handed it to Su Jinyao, and then said, "This is a deposit for you, the painting is good, and there is a reward." Also, I've set a mirror for you, so remember to bring it to me the next time you come over. ”
Su Jinyao looked at the piece of silver, at least more than two coins. What's more, the girl in red promised to buy another mirror for herself, but there was one more customer in it.
Thinking of this, Su Jinyao said: "Girl, look, I don't have a makeup box here, if you want me to put on makeup, then you have to use your things." ”
"Okay, come with me." After the girl in red finished speaking, she walked upstairs first.
Su Jinyao followed behind her, looking at her slender figure and swaying skirt, she couldn't help but feel a little regretful. This girl has a good figure and a good temperament, and she has the feeling of a clear water hibiscus. But she was wearing a red dress, and her face was yellow, which made her look even worse.
Just as she was thinking about it, the girl in red stopped and said, "It's here." ”
Su Jinyao looked up and found that this was a room on the left hand side of the second floor. The decoration is similar to that of the Ming girl's house, except that the curtains, curtains, tablecloths, and carpets in this room are all bright colors.
Su Jinyao stepped in, only to feel that this room was really glamorous.
"What are you looking at?" The girl in red sat in front of the dresser by herself, and couldn't help frowning when she saw that Su Jinyao was still looking at the decoration in the room. I already secretly felt in my heart, is this little girl too earthy, can it be said that when she sees the big pomp, she will mess up?
But thinking about Miss Ming's bright makeup before, she was reluctant to kick people out now. I had to call out again: "Little girl, don't look at it, come and put makeup on me." ”
"Oh, here we are." Su Jinyao agreed, came behind the girl in red, and carefully examined her face and facial features from the mirror.
Su Jinyao's eyes are poisonous, her observation is also meticulous, and she is the most inscrutable at people's hearts, of course, she can see a bit of disdain and contempt in her eyes at a glance.
Su Jinyao looked at her old clothes again, and it seemed that they really didn't match this red room.
However, Su Jinyao is not the kind of person who is easy to blow up. On the contrary, the more she was looked down upon, the more she thought about how to make her money. Only a fool would turn around and leave because of someone else's white eyes, let go of the opportunity to make money.
Su Jinyao looked at the girl in red carefully and opened the makeup box on the table. This girl in red should also be a figure in this red-sleeved workshop, and the makeup box on her table is also extremely exquisite, the same three boxes. But unlike Miss Ming, she didn't tell Su Jinyao which box contained rouge gouache, but let Su Jinyao open them one by one.
When I opened the first makeup box, there were headdresses inside, hairpins, step shakes, and hairpins. And the material is excellent, the hairpin is pearl and coral; The step shake is gold-inlaid with jade; There are also several hairpins, such as white jade, jade, and agate.
And inside the second box are earrings, rings, and necklaces, which are round and jade, gold and silver, and are not dazzling.
It wasn't until the third box was opened that there was rouge gouache and lip gloss inside.
After Su Jinyao opened it one by one, she knew that this was the girl in red who had the heart to show off to herself. But why did she show this to herself?
With a slight turn of her mind, Su Jinyao understood. This girl in red and that girl should be the opposite. Otherwise, it wouldn't be Miss Ming looking for herself to put on makeup, and she immediately came in a hurry. And she deliberately opened these makeup boxes, is it to show that she is better than the Red Girl's things?
But the more this is the case, the more Su Jinyao understands that she must be inferior to Miss Ming's limelight, or that this girl in red has also been beautiful, but now that she is out of breath, she is unbalanced in her heart, and she will intentionally compare with everything.
Thinking of this, Su Jinyao smiled at the red-clothed girl in the mirror, and said bluntly: "Girl, but you have something on your mind?" But because there are always people in your head and suppressing your limelight, what if you feel uncomfortable? ”
Su Jinyao's question was direct enough. The girl in red was stunned when she heard this, then pulled her face down, and said in a deep voice: "The little girl is talking nonsense, all the sisters in this red-sleeved workshop are harmonious, how can there be such a thing as you said." Seeing that you are young, forget it if you are ignorant. You go, I don't need your makeup. ”
Su Jinyao heard that she was driving people away, but she didn't leave. Instead, he casually picked up a box of rouge in the makeup box and said, "Girl, I think this color is more suitable for your skin tone." Why don't you rub it on first? ”
"I said I don't need you to put on makeup, what else to try?" Although the girl in red said this, she didn't mean to push Su Jinyao away.
Su Jinyao immediately dipped her fingers in some rouge and gently wiped it on her cheeks.
However, just applying rouge is not so brilliant, Su Jinyao picked up the charcoal of the thrush again and said, "Don't worry, girl, I'll draw you another eyebrow." If you think it looks good, I'll continue to apply your makeup. If you don't think it's good, I'll refund you the tip you just gave me. ”
After speaking, without waiting for the girl in red to speak, Su Jinyao directly drew two eyebrows for her.
The girl in red has a thin body and a small face, so Su Jinyao deliberately lengthened her eyebrows, and the peak of her eyebrows rose slightly, making her forehead appear full, and her face was not so thin.
Although she only wiped off the rouge and drew two eyebrows, Su Jinyao matched her well, which immediately made her face show a bit of vivid charm.
