The general's wife knows medicine

Chapter 17 Successful opening

Seeing that there were so many people coming into the store, Tang Peipei was afraid that the store clerks would be overwhelmed and cause trouble, so she also went into the store to help greet customers.

"Auntie, do you want to buy ready-made clothes or fabrics?" Tang Peipei saw a woman with a girl walking around the store. After looking around and seeing no one was hiring a clerk, she went up to ask.

The woman looked at Tang Peipei and said with a smile, "My daughter is getting married soon, and I want to buy her a wedding dress."

The girl next to her looked shy when she heard the woman say this.

Tang Peipei saw that the woman's clothes were ordinary, and the fabric was not very good, just ordinary cotton and linen. It was not new, but clean and tidy. The material of the girl's body was better than the woman's. Although it was also cotton and linen, it was fine linen, so it was more comfortable, neat and comfortable. Tang Peipei had an idea in her mind.

This woman should not be a village woman. Her family is average, but she should be willing to spend money on her daughter.

"Aunt, we don't have ready-made wedding dresses in our store right now. When is your daughter getting married? We can make custom ones."

"My daughter is getting married on the third day of next month. I wonder if it will be in time for custom-made order?" The woman looked at Tang Peipei expectantly.

She had already visited several stores in the town, but they all said that they couldn't do it because of time constraints. If she really wanted to do it, she would have to go to the county, but it would take an hour or two to walk to the county, which was too far. Now it seemed that she could only go to the county.

The woman seemed a little disappointed and prepared to leave with her daughter, going home early to prepare for a trip to the county town tomorrow.

"Auntie, if you're not busy, why don't you go sit upstairs? Let's talk about your ideas about wedding dresses." Tang Peipei stopped the woman who was about to leave and pointed upstairs to her.

The woman looked at Tang Peipei, who gave her a reassuring smile and brought the mother and daughter upstairs.

Tang Peipei asked the two to sit down and poured them some water.

"Aunt, what's your name?"

"What's the big deal? My name is Tan Qiuniang, you can just call me Aunt Qiuniang."

"Aunt Qiu, there are still ten days left. It's still not too late. Can you tell me your request?"

"Is it really in time?" You know, her daughter's previous wedding dress was a simple style and it took several months to embroider it.

Tang Peipei nodded, "If it's really not too late, we can sign a contract. If we can't deliver on time, we'll pay three times the compensation."

"That's great. We don't have any special requirements for the clothes. Just an ordinary wedding dress will do." The woman was not one to make things difficult for others. Knowing that time was short, she did not make too many requests. She just wanted her daughter to have a decent wedding dress when she got married and not make a fool of herself.

"Well, since there are no requirements, I will design it according to my own ideas. You can come to the store tomorrow to see the style. After you confirm it, we will start embroidering."

"Okay, no problem, but what about the price?" When the woman heard that she could choose the style, she worried that the price would be too high and she couldn't afford it.

"Don't worry, the price won't be too expensive, but we need to pay a deposit first. After we look at the style tomorrow, we need to pay another part of the deposit, and pay the balance when it is delivered. Do you think you can accept this?"

After hearing Tang Peipei say that they could sign a contract and choose a style, the woman thought about it and felt that she could accept it.

"How much is the deposit?"

"The deposit is not much, just one or two taels of silver."

"Okay, no problem." Although the woman felt a little distressed about having to pay one or two taels of silver for nothing, she gritted her teeth and agreed after thinking about her daughter.

"Okay, then you guys sit down for a while, I'll go write a contract."

Tang Peipei came to the desk, wrote down the contents of the contract on a piece of paper, made two copies, and handed them to the woman.

"I can't read."

Only then did Tang Peipei remember that not everyone in today's society has received education.

"It's okay. I'll read it to you."

Tang Peipei opened the contract, "Party A is me, and Party B is you. Article 1, Party B will purchase a set of wedding dresses from Party A and pay in three installments. The first installment is to pay one tael when signing the contract, the second installment is to pay two taels when handing over the wedding dress drawings, and the third installment is to pay the balance when handing over the wedding dresses. Article 2, Party A and Party B agree to deliver the goods within ten days. If the goods are not delivered on time or are delivered incorrectly, the three parties will compensate for the loss. Article 3, if the goods delivered by Party A to Party B do not have any quality problems, they will not be returned. If Party B gives up accepting the goods, the deposit will not be refunded..."

After Tang Peipei finished reading, Tan Qiuniang felt that the terms were very detailed and covered the concerns of both parties, so she nodded.

Tang Peipei took the Indonesian document and asked Tan Qiuniang to put her fingerprints on it. She also signed her own document and handed one copy to Tan Qiuniang.

"Aunt Qiu, this is yours, please keep it."

Tan Qiuniang took it, folded it, and put it in her sleeve pocket. "Then we will go back first."

"Okay, come to the store tomorrow afternoon and I'll show you some wedding dress samples."

Tang Peipei escorted the two people out of the store, which was already crowded.

It looks like today is going to be a good day for the opening.

Tang Peipei then went into the store to help serve customers.

When little Tuanzi was hungry, Nanny Yuan asked Tang Peipei to feed him. After feeding, Tang Peipei continued to work and left other things to Nanny Yuan.

The first day I didn’t have time to take care of my little one, I was so busy that I almost collapsed from exhaustion.

When it was time to settle the accounts in the evening, the shopkeeper was so excited that he was clacking his abacus at the front desk.

The clerk brought a stool for Tang Peipei and Zeng Xiuyuan to sit down.

The shopkeeper stopped what he was doing and looked at the two of them with a face that showed neither sadness nor joy. The two of them looked at each other.

Isn’t it true that you earn more than you imagined?

They all looked at the shopkeeper again, "Uncle Qi, tell me quickly, how much?"

Shopkeeper Qi coughed and said with a smile: "My dear masters, today's net income after deducting the cost is 689 taels and 5 coins."
