Chapter 46: Chapter 45 Cooperation Pleasure Chapter 46: Chapter 45 Cooperation Pleasure Xiao Fuzi brought the visitors to the entrance of the private room, then gently knocked on the door, “Master, the guests are here.”
“Co in,” a pleasant male voice resonated, carrying a breath of fresh wind.
Xiao Fuzi made a gesture of invitation.
“Please co in,” he said.
Mrs.
Liu led the children inside.
At a distance of about one ter from the pair, she bowed, “Greetings to the two young masters.”
Shangguan Xuanyi gave a slight nod.
Di Zhaowei greeted familiarly, “Madam need not be overly respectful, and you two little guys and missy, it’s great to see you well.
Is your father not accompanying you?”
Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at Xiao Fuzi.
Xiao Fuzi was surprised.
Was his master offering them seats?
Or did he have other intentions?
For the first ti, he found it challenging to guess his master’s intentions.
In the end, he concluded that the likelihood of his master offering the seats was low, so he presented the dolls he had purchased.
“My father has also co to town, but he’s currently busy with business matters,” Jingrui replied.
Shangguan Xuanyi glanced briefly at the table before instructing in a mild tone, “Please sit.”
Xiao Fuzi was greatly surprised.
His master was indeed offering the seats!
Although shocked, he showed no sign of it on his face, hastily bidding Mrs.
Liu and the children to sit.
Xiao’er took a closer look at the two gentlen.
Both had healthy complexions, evidently the injuries from the previous encounter had largely healed.
As Jingrui and Jinghao had previously interacted with the two n, they didn’t seem constrained.
Jinghao then asked, “Have both of you fully recovered from your injuries?”
“It’s nothing serious,” Shangguan Xuanyi shook his head.
If anyone else had asked him this way, he would’ve assud they were after sothing in return.
However, he didn’t harbor such feelings towards this family for so reason.
“Those were minor scratches.
They are nothing compared to the injuries I got from the beatings by my father when I was a boy,” Di Zhaowei, who grew up under his father’s strict disciplinarian hand, chid in.
Mrs.Liu had heard about the two n from Shen Chengyao.
She knew that one of them was related to the Marquis Mansion and the other was of higher rank.
eting scions of distinguished families for the first ti, she was inevitably nervous and only dared to sit on half the chair.
Di Zhaowei picked up the toys on the table, appreciative of the vivacious and lovely depictions of the small dogs, pigs, insects, and rats.
“Did you make these yourself?” Shangguan Xuanyi stared at Xiao’er, waiting for her reply.
“Yes,” Xiao’er nodded.
“These rag dolls are quite novel and cute.
Did you co up with them?” Shangguan Xuanyi played with a Tigger doll as he asked.
Xiao’er didn’t deny it and nodded, “Yes.”
“Did your master teach you?”
Ugh.
He had to hit a sore spot.
Xiao’er thought irritably, “No, it was my own idea.”
“Quite a creative mind.”
“How did you co up with the idea to make even such a disgusting rat look so cute?” Di Zhaowei flicked the tail of the Mickey Mouse doll.
“I thought it up.” In her previous life, plush toys were ubiquitous.
She rely rembered their appearance and reproduced it.
Of course, she couldn’t tell them this directly.
Di Zhaowei: …
Shangguan Xuanyi coughed lightly, masking his own amusent, “Miss, you have a quick mind.”
“Thank you for your complint, sir.” She knew this well, even without him saying it.
“Can you co up with other designs for rag dolls?”
Xiao’er had already guessed their intentions, and she ca prepared today, just like ‘Jiang Tai Gong fishing,’ so she nodded, “Of course, I can co up with many more.”
“We want to buy your rag doll designs completely, what would be the price?” Di Zhaowei, too, was quite earnest when it ca to doing business.
“I’m not selling.” Xiao’er refused without any hesitation.
She knew that the easiest money to be made is from won and children, and she planned to open her own toy store.
The two n didn’t seem too surprised.
Shangguan Xuanyi had already ntioned that she wouldn’t agree to sell.
He could tell that she was a decisive young woman.
Di Zhaowei had prepared so argunts to persuade her and was about to speak, when…
Xiao’er jumped the gun and said, “I won’t sell the design, but we can form a partnership.”
“How would you like to collaborate?” Shangguan Xuanyi raised an eyebrow.
“We can partner to open a specialty shop that only sells children’s toys.”
“Wouldn’t a shop that only sells toys be too monotonous?” Di Zhaowei voiced his doubt.
“No, there are many different categories of toys.
There are blocks, amusent parks, toy cars, rag dolls…
we can also sell so enlightening picture books for children.”
Blocks, amusent parks, toy cars?
What on earth were those?
Those were all new to them.
The two n exchanged a confused look, realizing they had sothing new to learn.
“Sounds promising.” Di Zhaowei stroked his nose in agreent.
He felt that he had quite a bit to learn from a re young girl.
“How would you like to collaborate?” Shangguan Xuanyi cut to the chase.
“If both of you gentlen could participate in the partnership, I would be responsible for designing all the products in the store, including the layout and decoration.
One of you would manage production, and the other would oversee operations.
I’m offering technical shares, but the initial investnt required to start the store should be provided by you two.
After deducting all costs and expenses from the money earned, I want thirty percent of the net profit.
The remaining seventy percent is for you two to divide.
Is that acceptable?” Xiao’er had thought it through.
Given her social status in this society, opening a store on her own would likely attract troublemakers.
By partnering with the two high status gentlen seated before her, it would be the best possible arrangent.
Moreover, her impression of them was positive after two encounters; they weren’t the ungrateful type and treated others with respect regardless of their status.
The two were indebted to her family, making them the best choice for opening a store together.
Shangguan Xuanyi and Di Zhaowei glanced at each other and nodded in agreent.
Di Zhaowei then said, “Alright, let’s go for it.
I’ll handle the production.”
“I’ll oversee the shop then.
Miss Xiao’er, do you have any specifications for the size or location of the shop?
I can send people to find it.”
Xiao’er went into great detail about her plans for the shop, including its size, the location, how to choose the best location, how to decorate it, the preferred style of decoration, and what amusent facilities should be inside.
She also discussed a production line for the toys, how to prevent their products from being stolen by competitors before being sold, as well as so cost-conserving thods, such as collecting scrap fabric and growing cotton.
The two n were amazed and could hardly believe that such a thorough business plan ca from a girl who looked no older than seven or eight.
Mrs.
Liu and her two sons were left in awe, amazed at Xiao’er’s remarkable potential.
Xiao’er’s voice had beco hoarse from all the talking.
She took a sip of water before turning to the two n, “What do you gentlen think?”
Di Zhaowei coughed to suppress the overwhelming surprise on his face, “I have no objections.
It’s excellent”
Shangguan Xuanyi averted his gaze from Xiao’er, “The plan is very thorough, I have no objections either.
Let’s go along with your proposal.”
“Then I’ll draw up a detailed plan and give it to you later.”
“Sounds good, not a problem.” Di Zhaowei nodded eagerly.
Even though several words in Xiao’er’s speech were new to him, he didn’t have trouble understanding her.
The three of them further discussed the details of their cooperation, Xiao’er orally dictating the contract.
Xiao Fuzi and Di Zhaowei’s attendant wrote it down.
They each signed three copies of the cooperation docunt, output their handprints and each kept a copy.
The two gentlen were in awe of Xiao’er’s ticulous no-loophole partnership contract.
With this, a toy store that would soon take Minze Country by storm was about to be established.
