Volume 3 Chapter 13 - Delil’s first business deal (1/2)

Delil didn’t react immediately, rather she looked around this store that didn’t seem that big. After carefully looking around every corner, she came in front of big sister Sara and pointed at a clothes hanger with clothes on them before asking, “Can I ask how much you spend to buy those?”

Big sister Sara was surprised before revealing an apologetic smile, “I’m sorry, it’s not convenient for me to reveal the clothing price.”

“No, I’m not asking about the clothes, rather I’m asking about that…..You humans seem to call it a clothes hanger?” Delil asked.

“Clothes hanger?” Big sister Sara looked at Delil in surprise before looking at Xu Yi with a questioning gaze.

Xu Yi gave her a slight nod, “Big sister Sara, how much you spend to buy these clothes hangers isn’t anything you can’t reveal. If you tell her, you might be able to benefit from her.”

“Benefit?” Big sister Sara doubtfully looked at Delil. She didn’t feel that she could receive any benefits from this beautiful female elf, but she believed in Xu Yi so she honestly replied, “If it’s the clothes hangers, I buy them from the Tiremay Chamber of Commerce and they cost an average of…..around seventeen silver coins.”

“Seventeen silver coins?” Delil thought about it before turning to ask Xu Yi, “Is this price high?”

“Whether it’s high or not is relative.” Xu Yi said with a faint smile, “Delil, if there is a cheaper substitute, then the price is considered high. But if there isn’t, there isn’t the concept of high or not.”

“I understand.” Delil nodded before asking big sister Sara, “Then can I ask, if I…..could sell you something that had a similar use, but was even better at holding clothes that only cost fifteen silver coins each, would you buy it?”

Big sister Sara was surprised again, “Nonsenses, if there was a better and cheaper thing, of course I would buy it, but is there a better and cheaper clothes hanger? Right, you elves live in the forest, so could it be that you make wooden clothes hangers?”

“No, I’m not talking about this.” Delil shook her head and patted around before taking out a piece of paper for big sister Sara, “Big sister Sara, let me introduce myself. I am the Night Song Tribe’s rubber processing factory’s business manager. This is my name card, please take it.”

Big sister Sara was stunned for a bit before looking at Xu Yi in disbelief. She found that his expression was also very strange and looking like he was suppressing his laughter, so she became even more confused.

“Chairman Xu, this is……”

“Ke…..Eh…..No…..It’s nothing, no need to be surprised.” Xu Yi used quite a bit of effort to stop himself from smiling.

Seeing an elf girl seriously pull out her name card and reporting that she was the business manager of a company, even if this scene was designed by Xu Yi himself, he almost couldn’t suppress the feelings and almost broke out in laughter when he saw it.

“Big sister Sara, let me explain. This elven young miss Delil comes from a rubber processing factory. As for this rubber, you should know a bit from our Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s advertisements, right?” Xu Yi asked.

“Un, I know a bit, but I don’t know much.” Big sister Sara honestly replied.

“Actually many of our Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s products use rubber. For example, the cover for our newest Magic Fan is made from rubber. Not only is it light, it is also very durable. It’s even comparable to the iron cover we used before.” Xu Yi said.

“Un, I know. My husband has bought every single generation of Magic Fan and the newest Magic Fan’s rubber cover is much lighter compared to the first generation’s iron cover. It’s much easier when moving it around.” Big sister Sara said with a smile.

“That’s right. Delil was asking about your clothes hanger just now, I think that she wants to make plastic hangers to replace the wooden hangers. To me, plastic clothes hangers would be much easier to use because the plastic surface is very smooth. The surface of the wooden clothes hangers you use is very rough, so it’s very easy to damage the clothes.”

“That’s right, I talked to the Tiremay Chamber of Commerce about this problem, but they couldn’t do anything, so I have to be very careful when hanging up clothes. But I sell clothes and it isn’t good if I don’t hang them out to display. I’ve spent quite a bit of brainpower on this problem.” Big sister Sara complained.

Xu Yi revealed a faint smile and winked at Delil.

Delil understood and quickly said, “There won’t be this problem if you use the plastic clothes hanger were produce because we guarantee that they will be as smooth as skin, there won’t be any sharp thorns at all.”

“Really?” Big sister Sara doubtfully looked at Delil.
