Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

"We had no choice but to use these defective materials to make uniforms for waiters, but we couldn't use that much, so we had to digest it internally and sell it to helpers at a lower price."

"Even so, our cloth shop still has a lot of defective cloth piled up every year."

"After all, many of the defective materials are relatively expensive materials that most people can't afford."

Gu Qingzhi nodded, and understood what was going on. So that was the case.

Good materials like those, even if they can be cheaper, they won’t be much cheaper. The families of those who come out to work as helpers are generally of average conditions, so how can they afford these good materials?

She pondered for a while. Since it didn't affect her wearability, she wanted to buy some to take back. With so many people in her family, it was just in time to buy autumn and winter clothes. For people in the countryside, it was already very decent to wear clothes without patches, so why would they care about any flaws? Even if there was a big hole, it would be a good deal as long as it was cheaper.

Moreover, she also wanted to buy some good fabrics to make one or two decent sets of clothes for her family. Also, her brother was going to study in academy after the New Year, so this could be given to him to wear.

She hesitated for a moment and then said, "Aunt Chen, can you go and take a look at these defective materials?"

After they became a little more familiar with each other, the sweet-talking Gu Qingzhi immediately changed her name, and Madam Chen was very happy to hear it.

Gu Qingzhi wanted to know what the defect was so that she could decide whether she could buy more.

Madam Chen was a little surprised. She didn't expect Gu Qingzhi to be so interested in the defective material. However, the material was there anyway, so there was nothing to be ashamed of.

"They are all in the warehouse. Come this way, please."

She was in a good mood today, so she took the two of them there directly.

It was indeed as Mrs. Chen said, defective fabrics of various materials took up an entire wall of shelves.

Gu Qingzhi secretly complained that Chen's Cloth Shop was really rich and powerful, and so many materials were stored in the warehouse.

"Aunt Chen, can I take a look?"

Gu Wang was a little worried and hesitated to speak.

But, seeing Gu Qingzhi's enthusiasm, who could refuse such a lovely young lady?

Mrs. Chen agreed generously, "It's okay, go and see."

Gu Qingzhi squeezed her mother's arm soothingly, and after getting her consent, she walked lightly to the shelf and carefully examined a piece of so-called defective material.

Madam Chen still remembered these defective fabrics, so she took the initiative to introduce them, "Madam Zhi, this piece of fabric is unevenly dyed. Look here, the color is different from the surrounding area."

"This piece of material was dirty. The helper dropped it on the ground while transporting it, and it happened to be stained by a little water stain on the ground at that time."

"This one is a little bit tangled."

“This horse…”

Madam Chen picked up several pieces in succession and pointed out their flaws one by one.

However, in Gu Qingzhi's opinion, she did not think these flaws were too excessive. In fact, many flaws could be covered up through clever sewing techniques.

Some of them don’t need to be covered up, and they don’t affect your outfit.

She considered it for a while, and then spoke softly, "Aunt Chen, Qingzhi has an idea, I wonder if I should tell you or not?"

"Oh?" Madam Chen was a little curious. "Madam Zhi, please go ahead."

"Aunt Chen, you have so many defective cloths in your shop, have you ever thought of selling them?"

Madam Chen hesitated, "Does anyone want this defective cloth?"

“Customers will return them even if they buy them.”

Many of these are returned by customers, which is why there are so many defective cloths.

Gu Qingzhi thought about it and wondered how it was possible. Suddenly, an idea occurred to her, "Aunt Chen, if, Qingzhi meant if, if these defective fabrics were sold, could they be sold at a lower price than the regular-priced fabrics?"

"Also, when selling these fabrics, the waiter can also explain to the customers clearly where the defects are."

"In this way, I believe some families will not mind these defective fabrics."

What people often mind is deception. Of course I would be angry if I bought defective products at the same price. But what if these defective products are cheaper in themselves?

Everyone’s mentality is naturally different, and some people may even feel like they’ve gotten a great deal.

"We will then set up a counter in the lobby specifically for defective fabrics and have the waiters provide more guidance."

Gu Qingzhi spoke as he thought.

Mrs. Chen listened carelessly at first, but as she listened further, her eyes became brighter and brighter. It was indeed the case!

She couldn't help but clapped her hands and smiled, "This is feasible."

The more she looked at Gu Qingzhi, the more she liked her. She turned her head and smiled at Gu Wangshi, "Madam Gu, your little girl will be very successful in the future. She solved a big problem for me today."

"Come, come, Madam Zhi, tell me which fabrics you like and I'll give you a few pieces."

Madam Chen has been the shopkeeper for such a long time, so of course she has a good eye. The young lady from the Gu family seems to be very interested in these defective materials, otherwise she would not have specifically asked to see these materials.

Gu Qingzhi felt a little embarrassed and quickly waved her hand, "No, no, no, thanks."

There's no need to give it as a gift, you can still afford it.

She said generously, "Aunt Chen, I want to buy some defective fabrics. Aunt Chen, just ask the steward to give me some discounts."

This is nothing. If the defective fabric can be sold at a cheaper price, in her eyes it is no different from the regular-priced ones.

Madam Chen looked at Madam Gu and found that she had no objection to Gu Qingzhi's behavior. Instead, she just watched with a smile and did not intervene.

I couldn't help but marvel in my heart, Madam Gu is different, the daughter she raised is so sensible.

Although Mrs. Gu Wang didn't know why Gu Qingzhi suddenly wanted to buy defective fabrics, she didn't say anything. She supported her daughter unconditionally, but accidentally made Mrs. Chen look at her with a higher opinion of her.

Gu Qingzhi was very generous, and Mrs. Chen was also very generous, "Okay, I'll give you a discount on the ones you like."

Gu Qingzhi happily pulled Gu Wangshi to pick out fabric.

It's September now, and the weather will soon turn cooler, so the family members need to prepare their autumn and winter clothes.

I have to pick out some thicker fabrics, and better fabrics, to make a few gowns for my brother.

Father, mother, eldest brother, second brother, brother Hao and sister Shui all need to make several new sets of clothes.

Everyone had a hard time in the past few years, and except for her, no one in the family had made new clothes.

This time she had to give some to everyone.

Moreover, if she asks for a lot, she can bargain with Aunt Chen.

She whispered her thoughts to Gu Wangshi, saying that it was really inappropriate to act first and report later.

However, Gu Wangshi did not blame her. Instead, she looked at her lovingly and said, "Qing'er, mother said that you can do whatever you want. Mother will support you."

"Mother, I think these flaws do not affect wearing, and they can be covered up by sewing, but the price can be cheaper than ordinary fabrics, so why not do it?"
