Su Wen nodded and said proudly, “That’s right! I won’t hide it from you, my six little sisters are all smart and hardworking.”
“You are seven sisters? No brothers?
“Then you’re from Trinity village?” the tanned and scrawny man asked in surprise.
“Yup! You’ve heard of it?”
The man nodded, “I live in Chen’s Hollow, not far from your Trinity village. You can reach it after passing through a pine forest. I’ve heard a little, but I didn’t expect you two to be so different from the rumors.”
In fact, the rumors were very unpleasant, but the tanned and scrawny man would not say it out loud.
Su Wen had long known that the Su family’s seven golden flowers and inability to produce a son was famous in the surrounding villages, so it was nothing strange.
Since they were close to each other, they introduced themselves. The man was called Chen Weimin, and he had hunter ancestors.
Chen’s Hollow was also in the mountain valleys, so he would usually sneak into the mountains to hunt and satisfy his hunger. He could still survive, and was there that day to sell rabbit skin.
After Su Wen understood the situation, she let little sister Su sit on the ground to rest, while she stood in front of the stall and began to shout at the people passing by.
After hollering for a long time, it was already noon, and the people in the black market were getting fewer and fewer.
She might as well take the initiative to stand at the intersection with the energy she had had when she had been handing out flyers.
“Come and have a look! Exquisite sleeve guards, sleeve guards from the big city. Sleeve guards that can block the sun and whiten the skin! If you miss this opportunity, you won’t be able to buy it. You will lose out if you don’t buy it.”
Her words were humorous, and her accent was standard Mandarin. The mention of big cities was particularly convincing, and it immediately attracted the attention of the people passing by.
Su Wen spotted a young lady and grabbed her enthusiastically. “Big sister, do you want to buy a sleeve guard? It’s pretty and can block the sun, why don’t you buy a pair!”
The girl with black braids was shocked by her. She subconsciously wanted to shout ‘hooligan’, but she saw that it was a young girl who was pulling her.
She was attractive, had a kind smile, and was especially sincere when she called her ‘big sister’. She blushed and was tricked into stopping in front of the stall.
“Big sister, you choose. This way, you won’t be afraid of the sun tanning your arms when you go out if you put it on.”
Su Wen showed her how to put on the sleeve guards. “And this shawl, it’s pretty and elegant. It’s really nice to wear a shawl while riding a bicycle.”
The girl was immediately attracted by the shawl. She held it in her hand and looked at it from top to bottom. Su Wen gestured for her to try it on, but she couldn’t bear to take it off once she had done so.
It was the end of May and the weather was getting hotter, so a shawl was just right.
“Why don’t you buy one!” Su Wen rubbed her hands together, feeling a little excited.
The first deal! She had to succeed even if she had to use all her skills.
“How much is your shawl?”
“The shawl is 1 yuan each, 2 yuan for three.” Su Wen quoted the price without any guilt and knew how to capture the customer’s mind.
Little sister Su’s jaw dropped.
“So expensive?” The girl couldn’t accept it, but it looked good and was useful, so she couldn’t bear to remove it.
Su Wen was experienced and explained eloquently, “Look at the handiwork, look at the tailoring. It’s not available in rural areas, but only in big cities. You’ll look like a beautiful scenery when you walk on the road with this. I guarantee that all the girls in your unit will be envious of you.”
Having done so many part-time sales jobs, Su Wen’s eyes were sharp. From the look in the girl’s eyes when she had put on the shawl, she knew that she would be able to sell it.
“Big sister, don’t look down on the fact that each one costs 1 yuan. If you buy two, it would be cheap. On average, it would only cost a few cents. It’s enough if you save on a few eggs.”
Su Wen said nothing more and prepared to find a place to sit down and rest.
Little sister Su quickly spread the bag on the ground and let Su Wen sit down. She didn’t forget to show an ingratiating smile.
“Big sister, quickly sit down and rest. Are you tired? Do you want to drink some water?”
As she spoke, she took out an old-fashioned green water bottle from the small basket she carried with her.
