Chapter 148 is a big hit, and the book bag is a big hit
When Yao Qingnian arrived at Mrs. Yu's shop, his eyes lit up. He saw that she had rearranged the layout of the shop according to her own method. As soon as he entered the shop, he could see several rows of neatly arranged hangers on both sides, which were hung with all kinds of ready-made clothes for customers to choose from. Seeing them, Yao Qingnian even had the urge to buy clothes.
"Mrs. Yu, business is good."
"Oh, Sister Qingnian, you're here. I've been to your shop several times but didn't see you." When Mrs. Yu saw Yao Qingnian coming, she couldn't suppress the joy on her face. She invited her to the back hall and served her tea, fruits and snacks.
"Following your method, I had someone make clothes hangers. Look, not only do they sell more, but they also save a lot of trouble. You've helped so much, I don't know how to thank you! Are you free at noon? I'll treat you to a good meal at Yunlai Restaurant." With these clothes hangers, there is no need to go back and forth to get goods and introduce them. Customers can just bring what they like and ask the price or pay for it.
"I still have things to do in the shop, so there's plenty of time to eat."
"Oh, you are such a busy man. I came to you not only to thank you for the ready-made clothes, but also for the book bag."
"What's wrong with the book bag?"
"The batch of book bags you made for me have all been sold out, and some people even came to ask for them specifically. Now, these book bags are hard to buy even if you want to! Some people have already started to imitate them, and I'm getting anxious. I want you to make some more for me, and I want as many as you can get." Mrs. Yu did not expect that the book bags would not only sell well, but also become a hit, with each book bag being resold for 200 wen.
"No problem, I'll go back and find someone to do it." The aunties in the village made a batch of book bags last time, so now we can call them over and start working right away. Then we can recruit some more people to be led by these familiar aunties, and they will be able to get started quickly.
"Half a month is a bit too long. How about you deliver the goods to me every two days? There is no limit to the quantity. I will increase the price of each school bag by two cents, to twenty-two cents each." They were talking.
The waiter ran in and asked, "Madam, many people came to ask about the book bag again."
"Look, someone comes to ask while we are talking. Now you know how popular your book bag is. Go and tell them that it will be available in two days." Mrs. Yu was mixed with joy and sorrow. She was happy that business was good, but she was worried that there was no stock.
After discussing the matter of the book bag, Yao Qingnian selected a few sets of ready-made clothes from Madam Yu's shop and bought some cloth. The prices of the clothes here were relatively affordable, and the fabrics used were no worse than those in big shops.
Yao Qingnian went to pay the bill, but Madam Yu refused to accept any money no matter what. However, she made a lot of money from the clothes hanger method, and her shop's reputation rose immediately. She didn't even have time to thank Yao Qingnian, so how could she accept any money?
"Sister Qingnian, take the clothes. Compared with this hanger, this little bit of fabric is nothing. If you keep being polite to me, I'll get angry." Madam Yu packed the clothes and handed them to Yao Qingnian. She did not refuse. It would be a bit pretentious to refuse again. Wouldn't it be enough to give her a few more school bags when the time comes?
"Mrs. Yu, what are you using these scraps of cloth for?" Yao Qingnian noticed the scraps of cloth piled in the corner.
"These are the leftover scraps from making clothes. They're just taking up space here and are ready to be thrown away." It's inevitable that some cloth will be wasted when making clothes, and the extra scraps can't be used to make anything, so they're piled together and disposed of regularly.
"Give it to me!" Yao Qingnian looked at the rag and thought for a moment, then she had an idea. Just now when she was selecting fabrics for ready-made clothes in the shop, she saw all kinds of purses and money bags hanging on the side. She thought about going back to see if she could make some and sell them to Mrs. Yu together with the school bag.
These scraps of cloth are not too small. You can take them back and make some purses or something. You can combine modern styles with them and maybe even sell them for some money.
"You take it, so I don't have to deal with it." Mrs. Yu asked the waiter to help sort out the scraps of cloth and bring them along when he delivered the cloth for Yao Qingnian's school bag.
"If you have anything like this in the future, keep it for me. I want it." Some of the scraps of fabric here are of very good quality. It would be a pity to throw them away.
"Okay." Mrs. Yu agreed without asking any more questions.
When Yao Qingnian returned to the shop, a beautiful figure came over: "Qingnian!"
Jiang Ruoyin smiled sweetly, revealing a row of neat, white teeth. Her bright smile was as bright as the sun. Her pink skirt swayed in the wind, like a lively little rabbit, with a lively look in her eyes and eyebrows.
"Miss Jiang, why are you here?"
"Didn't I tell you to call me Ruoyin? It feels so strange to call me Miss Jiang." Jiang Ruoyin pouted her lips slightly, as if she was acting coquettishly. Her innocent and lovely look made people feel like spring breeze.
"Ruoyin." Yao Qingnian called softly.
"Yes, the banquet in our mansion will be held in five days. Don't forget it. I'll be waiting for you in the mansion!" After hearing Yao Qingnian change her words, she smiled and reminded her not to forget the banquet in their mansion.
"Okay." Thanks to her reminder, otherwise Yao Qingnian would have really forgotten about it.
The banquet at the Jiang Mansion was to be held in five days. According to what they had agreed upon before, they prepared some food. Yao Qingnian and Jiang Ruoyin agreed that they would have someone bring the ingredients over early that day to cook.
Jiang Ruoyin didn't understand any of this, so she told the maid and Yao Qingnian to coordinate and make sure the banquet wasn't delayed.
After ordering some food and putting it on the table, Jiang Ruoyin did not start eating. Instead, she chatted with Yao Qingnian in a casual manner, and looked outside from time to time.
"Ruoyin, are you waiting for Wu Yu?"
"Yes, it's almost time to get out of school. Since I'm here, I just want to see if I can wait for him." She looked shy like a little girl, which was very different from her usual lively and lovely personality. It turned out that love can change a person. Yao Qingnian smiled and shook her head.
"It will take a while." Wu Yu is usually the last one to come out after school.
"It's okay, I'll wait here for a while. By the way, Qingnian, how did you meet your husband? I haven't even met him. A man who can attract you must have some outstanding qualities, right?" Jiang Ruoyin looked at Yao Qingnian with a gossipy look on her face.
"Huh? Actually, I haven't met him many times. We were arranged by our parents and matchmaker." Speaking of Lu Huaijin, Yao Qingnian could only smile awkwardly.
"No way? Where are the others?"
"He went to the battlefield two days after we got married."
"Is that so..." Jiang Ruoyin wanted to ask something else, but Yao Qingnian changed the subject.
"Aren't you waiting for Wu Yu? Look, school is over..." When Jiang Ruoyin heard that school was over, she immediately ran to the door, fearing that she would miss Wu Yu by accident.
