Chapter 104: Chapter 103: Playing Tricks (Second Update)

The landlady saw her about to leave and panicked immediately, hurriedly grabbing her, "Hey, hey, hey, big sister, where are you going?"

Grabbed by the landlady, Xu Niannian seemed to remember her only then, her face beaming with a smile, she replied agreeably, "Big sister, thank you for your feedback. I need to rush back, so I won’t disturb you any longer."

"Ah, you’re leaving just like that?" The landlady was a bit taken aback, "Weren’t you here to make a delivery?"

Xu Niannian followed her pointed direction and saw Xu Zhiqiang’s carrying basket, puzzledly looking towards the landlady.

"Big sister, I recall you did not place an order with us for a second delivery last time, and my visit today was to investigate the sales situation of our products at your place."

The landlady had finally awaited Xu Niannian’s arrival with difficulty, so she wasn’t about to let her go so easily.

Upon hearing she was not there to deliver goods, she became anxious on the spot.

Pointing at Xu Zhiqiang’s carrying basket, she said, "It’s true that I did not order a second delivery last time, but didn’t you bring some now? Can I place an order now?"

Xu Niannian acted as though she had just realized, "Oh, you mean this? This is meant to be delivered to other shops that I have arranged with, it can’t be given to you."

Although Xu Niannian’s face always wore a smile, the words she spoke were very firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Once she heard she couldn’t get the supply, the landlady felt like the duck that was ready to be caught had flown away, tugging at Xu Niannian, "Then then then... If I place an order now, when can you deliver it?"

Xu Niannian shook her head, however, "According to what you’ve said, it takes four days to sell a hundred. I think we need to go back and discuss with my parents to see if we can continue to cooperate with you."

The landlady heard this and panicked—those words clearly implied she thought that the products weren’t selling well at their shop and was considering to stop cooperating with them.

Talking about discussing it later—once people leave, where would she find them?

Liuyue Su was indeed selling well, she could sell a hundred in one day, the cost was three jiao each, and she sold them for four jiao, earning ten yuan a day.

A textile worker in the factory only made thirty yuan a month, and she could make a month’s salary in three days, something she couldn’t even dare to dream of when she used to sell breakfast.

Fearing this good opportunity would be disrupted, she had no choice but to tell the truth reluctantly.

"Big sister, don’t be in such a hurry to leave. I’ll tell you the truth, your family’s products, I sell out in less than a day. Big sister, you are beautiful and kind-hearted, please do us a favor and continue to supply to our shop, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Niannian raised an eyebrow, intelligently not asking why she had lied.

Strike with a stick, then offer a date, you can’t push people too hard.

Still, she had to put on an act of disbelief at first, then as if she understood something afterwards.

Finally, she said helplessly, "Since that’s the case, I’ll come back next time to supply to you, big sister. I really didn’t prepare your portion for today."

The landlady just wanted to be able to continue the cooperation. Hearing Xu Niannian relent, she finally felt relieved.

"Okay, I’ll take three hundred next time. When do you have time to deliver to me?"

"Three days from now," Xu Niannian pretended to think for a moment, then gave an answer, "However, I can’t promise to supply you with three hundred, at most two hundred."

This response left the landlady dumbfounded again—who ever complained about earning too much money?

She hurriedly asked Xu Niannian the reason.

Xu Niannian deliberately teased her, hinting that other shops were also anxiously waiting for the goods.

The landlady, having no choice, had to agree in the end—after all, she was the supplier.

Xu Niannian behaved this way because she didn’t want these cooperative shops to hold her in too high regard, thinking that without them, she would have nowhere to sell.

With straightforward people, like Li Qingshui, she wouldn’t resort to these roundabout methods.

But with those who were calculating, she didn’t mind playing mind games with them.
