Chapter 35 - 35 34 The Golden Thief
?Chapter 35: Chapter 34 The Golden Thief Chapter 35: Chapter 34 The Golden Thief Chen Afu shook his head and said, “Embroidery Tower is a business, aiming to make a profit. They only need to buy one bag to discern the clever use of the sewing kit and the method of making disk buttons. After we sell these sewing kits, you can go to Jin Yun Embroidery Tower and sell the design of the disk buttons to them.”
In her previous life, Chen Afu was in marketing, and she deeply knew that the same product, due to different marketing strategies, could fetch very different prices. She said, “We may be peddlers, but if we identify the right buyers and selling locations, we can still negotiate a good price. The average folk, and even the moderately affluent, certainly won’t spend so much on a sewing kit…”
She said that we shouldn’t sell the sewing kit at the Lingyin Temple stalls. Although there are many people there, few wealthy families’ women go shopping there themselves. Most of them get off their sedan chairs at the temple gates and enter the temple. These people, who make a living by selling ornaments, wouldn’t dare to hawk in front of these ladies. It may be considered rude to the nobles and they might end up being beaten up.
She had previously heard from Mrs. Wang that not far from Lingyin Temple was Yingxue Nunnery, where the goddess Guanyin, known for granting children, was primarily worshipped. Because Lingyin Temple was too famous, most pilgrims would visit there, resulting in fewer visitors to Yingxue Nunnery. However, the abbess of Yingxue Nunnery supposedly came from a wealthy family, and occasionally, ladies from high-ranking families would visit to offer incense, some even staying for a few days. As not many people did business outside the nunnery, some ladies would wander around outside and purchase small items they fancied.
Chen Afu’s idea was for Mrs. Wang and Alu to go and sell sewing baskets outside Lingyin Temple, while she and Dabao would sell sewing kits outside Yingxue Nunnery. They would meet again at Lingyin Temple around midday. She also mentioned that if they found a suitable buyer the next day, they would sell, and if not, they would think of other methods.
Because the sewing baskets took up a lot of space, Mrs. Wang visited Mr. Gao, who rented donkey carts in the village, to hire a vehicle to go to Honglin Mountain. The one-way fare was forty wen, causing Mrs. Wang to frown at the thought, but considering it was about half the selling price of a sewing basket, she felt more relieved. She was confident in her products.
That evening, Jin Yanzi also returned, as promised to Chen Afu who anticipated its return a few days ago. After the scuffle last time, Chen Afu felt reassured having this bodyguard accompany them. She made sure to tell him not to bring his flashy friends around, as they would draw attention, leaving them unable to distract him and certainly not allowing him to disturb Chen Ming.
