Chapter 1128 80 Little Stutterer Pork Shop 23
Lingyao rubbed her fingers on the polka-dot dress, then put down the dress while Master Lin held his breath and touched the next one.
Master Lin stared intently at Ling Yao, observing the expression on her face, his heart pounding with a chaotic feeling, as if a mudslide were crashing down on him.
Lingyao's face was always expressionless, which made Master Lin even more flustered. Fortunately, Lingyao eventually put her hand down and looked at the other clothes.
I guess... no one noticed, right?
After all, she used to just casually tap and take away the finished clothes from here, sometimes without even looking at them closely.
Master Lin herself didn't dare to do such a thing. After all, she had been a tailor all her life and could tell the difference in materials just by touching them, especially the material that this young lady brought over, which was incomparable in every aspect.
However, after Lin finished making that batch of clothes for Lingyao, her daughter quickly told her that many people were wearing the clothes she made! Although the material was not as good as the ones she made last time, a top still sold for eight or nine yuan, and a better quality one for more than ten yuan.
Her daughter even went so far as to ask around and finally found the woman who first wore these clothes. That top that was all the rage in the town cost thirty-five! And that pink coat that the saleswoman wore cost one hundred and twenty!
Good heavens, she only charged 6 yuan for the workmanship of these few clothes. How many times would she have to work overtime to make them in order to buy a coat?
When Master Lin found out, he could only sigh. However, Master Lin's eldest daughter had a different idea. She wanted to ask her mother if Lingyao could give her a discount on one of the items.
After all, her mother was one of the best dressmakers in the town, and her clothes had complicated designs, making it hard to find someone who could make them as well.
So giving them a discount shouldn't be a problem.
However, Master Lin felt it was inappropriate. Even with the discount, the clothes were still ridiculously expensive. He told his eldest daughter to give up on the idea. If all else failed, he would make an identical set using other fabrics.
However, Master Lin's eldest daughter refused. Her mother had made it for her using other fabrics before, but it was never as good-looking or as comfortable to the touch as the fabric that girl brought.
If she hadn't seen the original set, it would have been fine. But once she's seen something good, she always wants to compare it, and the more she compares, the more she feels that the original set was really better in every way.
The mother and daughter's discussion was overheard by the man in the house at some point.
Lin's husband was a lazy man with no proper job, and the family relied on Lin's tailor shop to make ends meet.
He himself spends his days drinking and playing cards with a few friends.
After learning about this, the couple gave Mr. Lin a suggestion when they were lying in bed together that night.
"Why waste that money? Just change two outfits out of the pile of clothes and use different materials. Didn't you say she wasn't checking very carefully? Even if she finds out, just say you took the wrong ones and that the other two were made for Chun'er. That'll solve everything."
Chun'er was referring to their eldest daughter, who desperately wanted clothes.
Of course, Mr. Lin's husband didn't simply want to give his daughter two different outfits.
He'd already asked around and found out that the clothes were expensive. He'd get one or two sets for his daughter, and then he could get more and sell them...
The cost of the workmanship will be much more than just a few dollars or a dozen dollars. A coat will cost 120 dollars. Winter is coming soon, won't our family be rich?
Master Lin initially disagreed, but he couldn't resist the man's constant nagging.
In addition, Lingyao basically took it without checking it at all.
Under the influence of his husband and the urging of his wife, Master Lin finally complied with the arrangement.
After Lingyao took all the clothes in her hands, just as Master Lin's heart relaxed slightly, thinking that he had successfully fooled her, Lingyao suddenly pulled out two sets from the pile of clothes. One was the black polka dot dress suit, and the other was the same pink coat that had been ordered last time.
Selling that coat to the saleswoman for a hundred dollars was a good choice. She had worked in the store for a long time and was familiar with the well-off people in town who frequently shopped there.
The store she works at is in a fairly central location, and a few days ago when the temperature dropped slightly, she couldn't wait to put on her coat, even though it was a bit hot to wear one in this weather.
But for women, buying new clothes, especially such expensive ones, and not wearing them out to show them to everyone is torture.
And she didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but when she first put on the coat, she felt a little hot. But after wearing it for a while, she felt comfortable and the temperature was just right.
That day saw the saleswoman serve the most young female customers; half of them came to ask her where she bought her clothes.
This pink coat is especially beautiful; it instantly awakens the girlish heart in women.
That same day, the sales volume of three coats was recorded for Lingyao, all priced at 130 yuan each, which made the sales clerk extremely happy.
After all, Lingyao said she would get a five-yuan commission for every item sold.
Actually, the sales model isn't that flexible and adaptable right now. If a modern person were to look at it from that perspective, they would probably understand the reasoning very quickly.
This salesperson is actually a live-streaming host with a good image and customer resources. The five yuan is the commission that the host earns from selling products.
As the shop owner, Lingyao sold a coat that was originally priced at 120 yuan to the sales clerk for 130 yuan. After deducting 5 yuan from the sales clerk's commission, she still made 125 yuan.
You won't lose any money at all.
After listening to Lingyao's analysis, the system couldn't help but complain: "Household host, you're an evil capitalist!"
Ling Yao snorted: "I'm not evil, at least the things I sell are definitely worth 130, or even more. Real capitalists might only sell things for 30 yuan. I still need to learn from them!"
Sudden Wealth: "After hearing what my host baby said, the Evil Sword Immortal can be resurrected."
So when Lingyao received another piece of pink wool fabric last time, she didn't design a new pattern, but instead asked Master Lin to make two pink coats just like before.
However, one of the sets had its materials replaced.
Seeing Lingyao precisely pull out the fabric, Master Lin's legs went weak, realizing that his plan had been exposed.
However, when Lingyao pointed out two sets of clothes and asked her, "Aren't you going to explain?"
Master Lin still clung to his last sliver of hope, his last glimmer of expectation.
Brace yourself on the table with your hands to prevent your legs from giving way and causing you to fall.
"Um, Miss Jiang, I don't understand what you mean."
