Chapter 383: Chapter 383 Warming Feelings (2)_1

"The mattress has two sides; this side is a cotton mattress, suitable for winter. It can be said that its warmth rivals that of a quilt. But on its reverse side, it’s equipped with a cooling mat for summer use. Even during the hot weather, it maintains its elasticity, yet provides a cooling effect." As Qiaoqiao explained, Yu Shao’en and He Dingyi flipped the mattress over again. Sure enough, everyone found that this side was made of a straw mat, intricately embedded into the mattress itself.

Someone voluntarily sat on it, feeling quite comfortable with its coolness and elasticity!

"The cooling mat has a variety of patterns to cater for a wider choice for customers. The third advantage of this bed is that it has a substantial usable space in the middle." Qiaoqiao boasted with a hint of pride in her bright smile.

Yu Shao’en and others cooperatively removed the mattress on another bed nearby, followed by the bed slats, which sparked quiet discussions among the customers.

Underneath the slats were compartments divided with planks. These compartments, assembled through a series of intriguing small components, offered an indeed large storage space, big enough to store four or five quilts. It was a clever design!

"Lastly, it’s worth mentioning that the slats are all made from Red Pine, a speciality of the Northern Land, and the engraving designs on them are done by special artisans." Qiaoqiao grew more enthusiastic the more she spoke.

Lin Ziyin smiled as she listened, approving of Qiaoqiao’s performance with her eyes as a form of affirmation and reward.

Receiving her approving gaze, Qiaoqiao beamed so much that her eyes almost turned into slits.

"Now that you’ve seen our beds, we welcome you to look at the Lin Family’s uniquely designed cabinets." Qiaoqiao swung open the cabinets’ doors. In fact, all the merchants had already examined them. These cabinets stood out from the crowd. For one, they could be used to categorize and hang clothes, making it a marvel in itself.

Moreover, these cabinets’ overall appearance was uniquely innovative.

Qiaoqiao spared no effort in introducing the functions and uses of the cabinets. However, this part might actually be redundant, as anyone with eyes can comprehend the cabinets’ purpose from just examining it.

"Are these the lounge chairs to sit and rest?" An astute observer among them asked while looking at the sofas surrounding them.

"Correct, although these pieces of furniture are not called lounge chairs, but sofas," Qiaoqiao answered with a grin, "How about you all try sitting on them? Sofas, generally speaking, are usually placed in the living room."

Before she even finished speaking, someone eagerly took a seat. Indeed, it was comfortable and elastic!

"In case the cushions get dirty, they can be detached and washed." Qiaoqiao reminded everyone, "There are two types of sofas; the ones made out of wood are generally cheaper, but those made from the same material as the mattress are several times more expensive."

Their prices did not matter; the merchants knew that these pieces of furniture would be in high demand wherever they were sold.

"Miss Lin, while your furniture is impressive, I’m afraid transportation might be a bit troublesome," a merchant stepped forward and spoke in respect.

Having read his information beforehand, Lin Ziyin knew he was the eldest grandson of Jiangnan’s top merchant, a sharp and astute businessman.

"Mr. Mo overthinks. The biggest convenience of Lin Family’s furniture lies in its disassembly capability. When you all purchase the furniture, everything, except the mattress, will come as planks. As long as you send a person you trust to learn assembly here, once your customers purchase the items, this person can assemble it right at the customer’s residence. There won’t be any problem with transportation," Lin Ziyin explained at leisure.

Capable of disassembly! This was another innovative point, which began to tempt quite a few people.

"Actually, the new business that Lin family plans to expand is far beyond just furniture. Everyone, look." Lin Ziyin walked towards the adolescent girl’s series beds. "These dolls are cute and versatile, we intend to sell them in combination with comic books. As we are all business people, I believe all of you have already identified the commercial opportunities." Lin Ziyin didn’t elaborate on the dolls because it was obvious. She instead emphasized on the quilts. "You may wonder why it seems so effortless for me to lift up a quilt."
