Chapter 305: Striking a Deal
Chapter 305: Striking a Deal
Elaine is a woman and a merchant.
Thus, she could appreciate the various benefits of stockings and immediately recognize their commercial value.
"Lindsey, you're a genius!"
"Seriously, I remember that among artisans, there are branches like weavers. Have you ever considered entering a related industry? You'd make a fortune!"
Many people Lindsey met would exclaim in admiration of his abilities.
By now, he had become completely immune to such flattery.
Facing Elaine's excited expression, he merely smiled:
"Well? You were saying how marketable this is."
Elaine made her judgment without hesitation:
"It's going to be a huge money-maker!"
As she spoke, Elaine touched the stockings on her legs.
The smooth material and snug fit made her feel very comfortable. The nearly transparent fabric perfectly concealed the original minor flaws on her skin, making them even more alluring.
This material...
"Lindsey, is this Ethereal Silk?"
With her experience as a merchant, Elaine instantly recognized the material of the stockings:
"I remember this stuff isn't cheap!"
Lindsey nodded in agreement:
"That's right. I bought a bundle for 30 in the commercial district."
Elaine's expression showed a bit of pain, and she immediately suggested:
"Ethereal Silk is too expensive. Let's use some ordinary material. I remember that Moonlit Silkworms are raised on a large scale in several worlds, and the purchase price in bulk is also very cheap."
Lindsey shared his thoughts:
"Generally speaking, isn't it easier to sell at a high price if you don't use the best materials?"
"Hmph," Elaine scoffed, "That's under the premise of having competitors."
"As long as we are the only sellers and the sole monopolists, no matter how poor the materials are, we can raise the price as we please!"
"Right." Elaine's mirror in her room was just a small half-body mirror, which she wasn't satisfied with, "Lindsey, the mirror in my room is too small. Go downstairs and borrow a larger mirror for me, the chamber is more accommodating."
Lindsey nodded.
However, as soon as he opened the door, a young man outside nearly stumbled in.
It was the apprentice Paul from the chamber.
He had heard Elaine's previous shout and ran upstairs out of concern, but he never heard any other sounds.
So, he timidly stood guard at the door.
At this moment, Lindsey opened the door, and he stumbled in, immediately noticing the girl sitting on the bed. His gaze, uncontrollably, shifted to her legs wrapped in stockings, and he couldn't take his eyes off them for a while.
"Ms. Elaine, I heard you shouting just now..."
"Get out!"
Elaine ordered coldly.
"..."
"Sorry."
Paul wanted to argue further.
But when he saw Elaine's icy gaze, he realized he had lost his chance and left dejectedly.
A quarter of an hour later.
Lindsey, following Elaine's suggestion, borrowed a mirror from downstairs.
The merchant girl, standing or sitting, constantly adjusted her posture and admired the beauty of the stockings on her body.
According to Elaine's suggestion.
She was observing the benefits of these stockings, preparing corresponding sales pitches.
Lindsey waited for a while and chatted casually, teasing her:
"Speaking of which, I remember you were quite enthusiastic in Lookout City. Why have you become so conservative now?"
Elaine rolled her eyes:
"Do you know what price Kuete offered?
