Chapter 295 – Back Home to Marry Off Myself Novel

The owner of the store smiled. He would just sell whichever the customer wanted to buy. The main thing for him was to be able to sell it.

“Let me help you get a new one.” The boss went in to look for the unopened one while muttering, “What a strange person, why people always think their children are geniuses.”

There were only two such kinds of cubes in his store. They were originally placed in the box but although many people looked at them, no one bought them at all as they thought it was impossible to solve them. Afterwards, he did not have other solutions so he unpacked it and put it here for the customers who came in to play with it. Many people tried it but even so, no one bought it.

However, he managed to sell it today so he was quite happy. The process of making this kind of cube was complicated and the cost was also high. He thought it would be there forever but unexpectedly, he managed to sell it today.

After finding the cube, the boss smilingly took the cube over, put it in a bag and handed it to Loredana, “Your child must be very smart.”

Loredana smiled lightly and did not say anything. In her mind, she did feel that her son was the smartest.

Like all mothers in the world, she thought that her child was the best.

Loredana asked, “How much?”

“360 yuan.”

Loredana took out cash of four hundred yuan to him and the boss gave her the change of 50 yuan, “I give you discount for 10 yuan. This cube cost me 350 yuan and I couldn’t sell it for two years. I don’t have any loss since you buy it today.”

Loredana took the change, carried the bag and walked out of the store. The driver came over, “Let me carry it.”

Loredana waved her hand, “No need.”

It was not a heavy thing anyway.

The driver escorted Loredana while walking through various stores. People were coming back and forth so they were completely unaware that not far behind them, a man wearing a blue parka, a flat cap and a black mask was secretly stalking them.

The goods of this store were all toys and accessories, which were not what she wanted. So, they went to the second floor. When they were taking the elevator, Loredana felt that someone was looking at her.

She turned around and did not find anyone looking at her.

“What’s wrong?” the driver asked.

Loredana shook her head. She looked back again. Indeed, no one was looking at her.

She turned around with doubts in her mind. Soon, the elevator reached the second floor. She found what she wanted on this floor so she quickened her pace, temporarily ignoring the feeling that someone was spying on her just now.

She ran through the second floor and finally found the lace she wanted. The texture was delicate and soft while the netting was light and thin. It was exactly what she wanted.

“This one is a bit expensive,” the owner of the store came over and said when Loredana was happy as she managed to find what she wanted and was looking at it with absorbed attention.

As a fashion designer, Loredana had a wide knowledge of fabrics and knew the prices well. She asked calmly, “This is sold based on the length, right?”

The boss nodded, “Yes, 1880 yuan for 33 cm.”

Loredana looked up at the boss and smiled, “Can’t it be cheaper?”

“This is the cheapest price. In the whole mall, my store is the only store that has it. It can’t be found in other stores because nobody is willing to sell it due to its expensive price.”

Loredana pinched it in her hand and rubbed, “This is woven from silk so it is light and thin. Its light transmittance is very good and it sounds delicate when one is holding it in the hand. However, the price you mentioned is slightly too expensive.”

When the boss heard this, he knew that she must be a connoisseur as she could determine the composition by just touching it with her hands. So, he did not dare to use the high selling price anymore, “Well, how much do you want, I’ll give you a discount.”

“I may need a few metres.”

When the boss heard this, he thought inwardly that she must be a heavy buyer as she wanted to buy a few metres at once. The boss grinned from ear to ear, “I’ll give you even more discount.”

It was not that Loredana was not willing to spend money but the price said by this boss at first was too high. This was expensive but its price should not be that extraordinarily high, “1080 yuan for 33 cm.”

“It can’t be that low.” The boss’s smile on his face gradually disappeared and his face darkened.

“You don’t suffer any loss. If it is 1080 yuan for 33 cm, you earn 80 yuan for every 33 cm. I want to buy six metres and as one metre is equal to 100 cm, it will be 18 multiplied by 33 cm which is about 600

cm, you can still earn 1440 yuan.”

The boss was really dumbfounded now. She actually knew the cost of buying this. She was really a connoisseur so he should not haggle over the price anymore.

“Are you also running this kind of business?” If she was not running a fabric business, she would not possibly know the price so clearly.

“Kind of.” Loredana did not say specifically what she did.

“Okay then, it’s sold to you.” The boss was not that hard to be dealt with as he thought that it would be fine as long as he could earn some money. Anyway, not many people would buy such an expensive fabric.

Someone who bought a few metres at once was considered a heavy buyer already.

Some imitations looked very similar to this one and the price was so low that he could not even sell the genuine ones.

The boss gave Loredana a thumbs up, “You’re indeed an expert.”

After cutting it according to the size she wanted, the boss neatly folded it and put it in a delicate box.

Then, he put it into a bag and handed it to Loredana.

Loredana took out her wallet and pulled out a bank card and handed it to him, “There is no password.”

She did not have that much cash with her.

“Alright.” The boss took the card with both hands, walked to the counter and swiped it. After the receipt came out, the boss took the card and handed the receipt to Loredana, “I have other fabrics here, do you need them?”

Loredana took the card and put it into her wallet. She shook her head, “No need…By the way, do you know if there is any place here that sells pearls?”

Loredana was not familiar with this place. In the past, she had her own way of purchasing goods and had her own way of buying the jewellery on the clothes. It was mainly because she was now not in Country A and City B so she could only ask local people here like them to get what she wanted.

“If you just want to buy one or two, you can go to the jewellery store. If you want more, you have to go to the farm. You can pick and the price is affordable too.”

Loredana thought about it. She indeed needed a lot, “Do you know where are the farms?”

“Do you need a lot?” the boss asked.

Loredana nodded.

“How about you give me your address and tell me which kind do you want. I’ll go get it for you…” The boss smiled, “I’ll get a little commission for that. In this way, you can save time and effort, what do you think?”

Loredana thought for a while and agreed, “Can.”

Too much time would be wasted if she personally went to buy it herself. Since someone could get it for her, she could save a lot of time by paying some money. Loredana wrote the specifications she wanted on the paper and the address, “It will be best to deliver it to me tonight, I’m in a hurry.”

The boss assured, “Don’t worry, it will certainly be delivered to you tonight.”

The driver took the initiative to carry the things. Since all the things she wanted had been bought, Loredana and the driver intended to go back.

When they took the elevator and reached the first floor, Loredana gave all the things to the driver, “You go to the car first and wait for me there.”

The driver saw that people were coming back and forth here. He thought it was not safe and said, “I’ll wait for you at the door.”

Loredana could not let him follow her to the washroom so she nodded.

She followed the signboard and found the location of the washroom. When she was about to go to the door to look for the driver after using the washroom, her wrist was grabbed by someone out of the blue.
