Chapter Twenty-Four: Selling
Jiang Zhixia was muttering here, and Shopkeeper Xu was also thinking about it over there.
The air was quiet for a while.
In the end, it was Jiang Zhixia who opened his mouth first: "Shopkeeper Xu is an old shopkeeper who has accumulated years, and naturally knows that most of today's jewelry is heavy and heavy, delicate and insufficient, and the patterns are common. And the jewelry made according to my pattern, I dare not say much else, at least the appearance is novel and chic. As for the materials and prices of jewelry, it is up to you to decide. Shopkeeper Xu's pattern is only a hundred taels, isn't it a little less? Zhixia said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Xu saw that Jiang Zhixia was not easy to fool, and he didn't buy the drawings for one hundred taels, so he was not embarrassed, he just smiled.
Then, he looked carefully at the picture, "What the girl said does make sense. However, before it is sold, it is difficult to say. Can you accept this pattern? It's hard to say whether you can accept this style or not. After all, we're all used to the way we are. The girl said, "Isn't it?" ”
After saying this, the shopkeeper Xu was afraid that what he said would be too serious, so Jiang Zhixia didn't sell it, so he hurriedly added: "However, since the girl is here, then let's discuss it." How much does the girl think is appropriate? ”
"Definitely. I understand. It's hard to say until it's sold. In this way, if I can draw one of these patterns, I can naturally draw ten or twenty of them. These three will be used for you to make jewelry at a total price of 600 taels to test the water. After the pattern, let's look at the effect and then talk about the price. What do you think? "Jiang Zhixia was a little unsure of what Shopkeeper Xu said, don't be 'the ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny', right? After all, the result of her inspection is that she thinks it is very marketable, in case the craftsman is not refined, the effect is not satisfactory, and it really can't be sold?
Although he thought so, Zhixia thought of the market situation he inspected, and was unwilling to sell it cheaply easily, and wanted to bargain with a glimmer of hope.
Zhixia remembered that when he was in college in the previous life, when he went to a department store or a roadside shop to buy clothes, bags and other items, he would cut the price in half.
This time, although it is not to buy something, but to sell something, it is better to simply ask for double the price.
It's a big deal, shopkeeper Xu will bargain again. Buying and selling is meant to come and go.
Unexpectedly, Shopkeeper Xu groaned slightly, and actually agreed.
He promised, he promised...
Jiang Zhixia's mind was churning not in ecstasy, but in bursts of buzzing regret.
Jiang Zhixia, the shopkeeper Xu's promise, was stunned, and felt that his asking price was less.
It's like the feeling of a bargain in my previous life, and the store immediately said, 'Forget it, I'll bring you one'. Whenever that happens, she regrets that she had bid too high.
Now, she began to regret that she had asked for a low price. But there was no way, after all, this price was what she wanted.
After Jiang Zhixia and Shopkeeper Xu reached a consensus, they simply signed an agreement.
The agreement shows that Jiang Zhixia sold out the three patterns to Zhu Cuilou at one time and received 600 taels of silver tickets from Zhu Cuilou. Jiang Zhixia is not allowed to sell these three patterns to others in the future, nor is he allowed to sell jewelry according to these three patterns for profit.
After signing the agreement, the shopkeeper Xu asked the guy to call Liu, the most senior craftsman in Zhu Cuilou.
After the skillful Liu arrived at the box, the shopkeeper Xu handed him the jewelry pattern. And let the skillful Liu ask Jiang Zhixia directly if he has any questions.
After the skillful Liu received the jewelry pattern, his eyes were full of amazement.
For craftsmen who have inherited the craftsmanship of their ancestors in making jewelry, they are not afraid that their craftsmanship is not perfect, and they are afraid that they will not be able to find new patterns. Even if he is a skilled craftsman, he has always been troubled by jewelry patterns.
Nowadays, the jewelry in these three patterns breaks the traditional auspicious pattern and looks playful and cute.
Skillful Liu excitedly asked Zhixia a lot of questions about size, how to inlay, how to match colors and how to weld.
Jiang Zhixia patiently answered them one by one.
Skillful Liu got the answer he wanted, so he took the jewelry pattern and went back to try it out excitedly.
Jiang Zhixia took the six hundred taels of silver tickets and put them in his purse calmly and calmly. Her heart was very excited, this was sixty acres of high-quality land, more than half of her house in the capital. She can finally go and buy what she wants---- of course, buying luxury goods is still hopeless for the time being.
Despite this, she kept saying in her heart, "Rich, rich." ”
"So I took my leave." Jiang Zhixia sold out the patterns, and with an income, he was very down-to-earth.
"In the future, when the girl has a pattern, she can sell it to us Zhu Cuilou again." Shopkeeper Xu was also very happy.
There is nothing new for everyone, they have. He is optimistic that this jewelry should sell well.
"Okay. Will be prioritized in the future. Jiang Zhixia didn't insist that he would sell it to his family in the future.
After all, when the jewelry is made and sold, if the response is good, the one with the highest price can get it.
After finishing speaking, Zhixia said goodbye, put on his hat, and walked out with brisk steps.
Jiang Zhixia slowly walked to the door of Nanfang, hired a carriage and returned to Feng'an Street.
After getting out of the carriage, Zhixia admired the smoke rising from the cooking, and saw that it was getting late, and it was too late to make dinner. I went to the restaurant to pack some food and walked home slowly.
After returning home, Jiang Zhixia hid the six hundred taels of silver tickets with the previous deed and land deed, and then slept beautifully.
In this way, Jiang Zhixia lived a leisurely life of picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and leisurely seeing Nanshan.
Every day, Zhixia gets up early to go to the street to buy some fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, and daily necessities.
Three meals a day.
In his spare time, he reads books, draws drawings, and occasionally takes his hat to the teahouse to listen to gossip.
In a flash, more than half a month has passed.
And the weather is slowly dissipating the heat and entering the cool August.
After entering August, although it has nothing to do with Zhixia, but it has something to do with several other houses in the alley---- the triennial autumn festival is about to begin.
Autumn begins on the ninth day of August and ends on August 18. The test lasts for nine days.
As soon as we enter August, the alley becomes very quiet.
Even the children in the alley were detained by their families and prevented from playing loudly in the alley.
After all, Wei Xiucai in the alley, Lord Wu and Lord Fan's families all have people in their families who want to participate in the Autumn Festival. So in order to create a good learning and sprint environment for them, everyone invariably quieted down.
Zhixia feels like a modern college entrance examination, the kind where parents and candidates are nervous.
Aunt Li next door came to Zhixia's house more often. She was afraid that she would make a disturbance at home and affect Wei Zhuxian's studies. After all, Wei Zhuxian is twenty-five years old this year, and if he can't pass the exam, he will have to be three years later. Three years later, it's hard to say what the situation will be.
Jiang Zhixia slowly became familiar with Aunt Li in this way.
