Chapter 45 Selling Bags

  "Wow, your backpack looks really good! Where did you buy it?" At this time, a young woman next to her saw Qiu Ye's backpack and was immediately attracted to it.

  Qiu Ye handed the package to the old lady and also took over a one-yuan bill that she handed over, putting it in the package. Only then did he reply: "This wasn't bought outside, but was made by a neighbor of ours."

  "Is she going to sell it outside?" The young woman was obviously fascinated by this unique bag.

  "It's expensive, that's all. She does this business specifically for wealthy people, and even hired a teacher from the Fine Arts Department of Shanghai University to design unique patterns for each bag, so they're very pricey."

  Qiu Ye watched as the old lady opened the paper package and took out a tea egg. She peeled off the skin and took a bite.

  Qiu Ye is not too nervous, her tea eggs have been selling for over a month in the Normal University campus, and students from all over the country are there, they all recognize good things, that taste must be good.

  "Oh, how expensive is it?" The woman was very moved by Qiu Ye's boasting. If the price was right, she would also like to get one done. She worked in the municipal government and had a colleague who loved to compare with others all the time. One moment he would say that his shoes were bought by a relative in a big city as a famous brand, another moment he would say that his clothes were bought in the largest shopping mall in Oil City as high-end goods. She was the only one who didn't have anything to show off and was always secretly ridiculed by them.

  "One hundred yuan each, you can choose the style of the bag yourself." Qiu Ye said without much enthusiasm, because this price is still frightening now, and not many women can be so good to themselves.

  The passengers in the car were all watching what was going on here, the whole car smelled good, they smelled it as soon as they got on, but when they just heard the little girl say two yuan and five cents each, they thought it was a bit expensive, and didn't know if it tasted good or not. At this time, seeing someone buying, they all waited to see how others evaluated after trying it.

  At this time, I heard the little girl say that a bag would cost 100 yuan, and I gasped. This pouch is inlaid with gold edges or something, why is it so expensive? The price is even higher than my monthly salary.

  The old lady had just finished eating a tea egg and said in surprise: "Little girl, this bag of yours is so expensive! How many tea eggs do you have to sell to buy such a bag?" After that, she carefully looked at the little girl's backpack.

  "Hehe, grandma, I'm a poor person. If I could afford such an expensive backpack, I wouldn't be selling tea eggs on the street. This bag was designed by my neighbor as a thank you to my parents for their help. Look, this is me, this is my brother, and those in the back are my parents and godparents." Qiu Ye smiled and pointed at the sheep on the backpack, thinking that the price of tea eggs and the backpack were not on the same level, but if sold well, he could still earn enough to buy a backpack in one day. It's just that people nowadays don't think that way, they just can't think of it."

  The old lady touched the pattern on top and said with a sigh, "It's really beautiful, but it's expensive. It's not something ordinary people like us can afford." After admiring it for a while, she turned to Qiu Ye and said, "Little girl, your tea leaf eggs are really delicious! The yolks are all fragrant with five-spice flavor. Come on, give me 10 more." After finishing speaking, she peeled open another tea leaf egg and started eating. This old person had a broad mind; when it came to things that didn't belong to her, she could just admire them for a bit before letting go.

  "Alright, grandma, this tea egg isn't expensive for nothing, the price is reasonable." Qiu Ye started bragging again, but didn't stop working with her hands. She used three pieces of paper to wrap ten more tea eggs and handed them to the old lady, "Grandma, here you go, hold on tight."

  Qiu Ye took over the two 50-cent coins handed over by the old lady and thought to herself, should there be other passengers coming to buy them.

  Just then, a young man in the carriage said, "Little sister, give me four too, I'll try some." He handed over one yuan.

  "Alright." Qiu Ye took the wallet and handed it over neatly.

  Then, it was like opening a curtain, the people in this car, one bought and another wanted to buy. The passengers in the front and back of the carriage were also startled by the commotion here, asking if there was a little girl selling delicious eggs. Everyone smelled the aroma in the carriage, many people couldn't help but take out money to buy one or two to try. There were too many people, so they let the people in front help pass the money and tea leaf eggs. For a time, the whole carriage was filled with the aroma of tea leaf eggs. In the end, about a third of the people in the carriage took out money to buy tea leaf eggs, then the train arrived at the station, one group of people got off, another group came on, and someone came to buy again.

  When Qiu Ye and others arrived at the bus terminal, Qiu Ye roughly calculated in her heart that just this time on the road, she had sold more than a hundred tea eggs.

  Before getting off the bus, the driver and conductor on the bus also took out money to buy a one-dollar tea egg each. Qiu Ye cleverly wrapped five for them, saying it was a special discount for them, buy four get one free.

  That ticket seller who had just been sulking, as soon as she heard that she had made a profit, her face lit up like a chrysanthemum and she happily said, "From now on, take my bus every morning!" She had just seen that this kid hadn't given anyone else this price, what she sold to herself was really cheap.

  Qiu Ye thought to herself, after this she would have to take the bus to the train station, and if she could sell some tea eggs on the bus, that would be even better. Now that she had won over the ticket seller and driver with small favors, why not take advantage of it?

  When getting off the car, Wang Zhuzi said that these two buckets are not equally heavy, and this pole is not easy to carry. That's right, there are only a few tea eggs left in one bucket, of course, they are not equally heavy. From now on, it's experience, you can't pull wool from one sheep, and you can't sell tea eggs in one bucket.

  The bus terminal was just opposite the train station, and as soon as they crossed the road, they were stopped by someone.

  Qiu Ye turned her head and saw that it was the young woman who had been on the bus with her, asking about the bag. She understood at a glance that this woman really liked the bag and wanted to buy one too. Qiu Ye deliberately observed carefully, and indeed, people can't be judged by their appearance. She didn't expect this woman to have so much money.

  She didn't know that they had gritted their teeth and tightened their belts in order to buy a handbag.

  Since it was business, Qiu Ye's attitude improved immediately. She smiled at the young woman and said, "Sister, what can I do for you? Are you here to buy tea eggs?"

  The young woman was apparently still hesitant, and after hearing Qiu Ye's words, she subconsciously nodded her head.

  Qiu Ye continued to ask: "How many do you want?" She said, gesturing to Zhu Zi Ge to put down the pole, and the more they sold, the more money they would make.

  "Four, four is enough."

  "Okay." Qiu Ye quickly wrapped it up and handed it to her.

  That woman looked at Qiu Ye after she received the money and was about to leave, somewhat in a hurry. She reached out her hand and grabbed Qiu Ye's hand.

  "Hey, little sister, I have something else to tell you." She finally made up her mind. It's only a matter of two or three months of hardship. If she had such a one-of-a-kind bag, she would be able to hold her head high among her flashy colleagues. It's a matter of face.

  In short, a gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. In that circle, everything can be lost except for face.

  "Let go." Wang Zhuzi didn't care what was going on with her, he just saw that she had grabbed Xiao Yezi, so he suddenly shouted.

  The woman was startled and subconsciously let go of Qiu Ye's hand, then hurriedly apologized with a bow, but didn't dare to look at Wang Zhuozi, this person is too scary.

  "Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean any harm. Little sister, I'm really sorry, my sister was just in a hurry earlier. I wanted to talk to you about the bag, I want to order one, can you help me get in touch with someone?"
