Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space - Chapter 1224

Chapter 1224: Chapter 1218: Bargaining_1 Chapter 1224: Chapter 1218: Bargaining_1 “Alright, that’s straightforward. Now, let’s discuss the prices of the other vegetables.” After hearing the vendor’s words, Chu Xiaoqiao smiled and mentioned each vegetable she needed, setting its price in the process.

“That’s it for today. As we agreed, the prices will adjust based on market fluctuations. Could you deliver them to the XX store now? That’s where I run my business, and in the future, you can deliver directly there whenever I need more supplies.” Chu Xiaoqiao was very familiar with the market prices.

The prices when conducting business couldn’t always remain unchanged, so she quickly agreed to the vendor’s request, after all, the vendor couldn’t possibly operate at a loss.

“Ok then, I’ll have it delivered to you shortly. I won’t hold you up.” The vegetable vendor had heard that a new pickle store had opened up on that street. She hadn’t expected it to have been opened by such a young lady. How fearlessly ambitious.

“Thank you, I have to go and buy meat so I will leave first. There will be someone in the store, so feel free to deliver.” Chu Xiaoqiao had more things to do, and couldn’t afford to linger for too long.

“Alright then, go on with your business. I’ll have it delivered to you shortly.” After listening to her, the vendor quickly shifted from referring to her as Miss to Missy, and then eventually to Big Sister. What a quick shift. A mere change in how she was addressed led to a much warmer relationship.

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiaoqiao simply smiled without voicing any objections. After all, it was just a form of address.

“Ms. Chu, you’re quite talented at bargaining.” Wu Tianci uncharacteristically complimented her.

“That’s all thanks to my sister-in-law’s teachings. I knew nothing about this. I learned it all from her. She taught me everything I wanted to learn without holding anything back. So, you just have to do your job with peace of mind.” Chu Xiaoqiao thought Wu Tianci meant this, so she responded by saying these words.

“I know that. My mother’s condition improved because Mrs. Qin helped her, so I understand what you’re saying and I trust her. I’ll manage the store responsibly.” Wu Tianci was a former military man, and while he was straightforward, it didn’t mean he couldn’t distinguish between right and wrong.

He believed he could run a small store well. Chu Xiaoqiao had brought him along today because she thought he could handle the future purchasing, and he was indeed right. Chu Xiaoqiao was thinking about this because she had to help An Hao manage the store, and she didn’t have much time to handle these chores.

So, she planned to delegate these tasks to Wu Tianci. She only needed to be in the store to make the pickles, which would save her a lot of time.

“That’s good. My sister-in-law has the ability to get everyone to work with her. This is indeed a form of leadership.” Chu Xiaoqiao thought about how fortunate her brother was to have such a wonderful woman in his life.

“Indeed, if this were in the past, she’d be considered a heroic woman.” Wu Tianci also believed that a woman with such leadership and appeal was extraordinary.

“Alright, let’s stop praising my sister-in-law here. Let’s go buy meat and then head home.” Chu Xiaoqiao thought about how the purchased goods would still need to be washed, dried, and manufactured. The whole process was lengthy.

“Okay.” Wu Tianci agreed with Chu Xiaoqiao.

“By the way, Tianci, will it be alright to leave Auntie alone at home?” Previously, Chu Xiaoqiao didn’t know anything about Wu Tianci’s family situation. She just found out that his mother who was ill was at home. If he came to watch the store, would it be alright to leave his sick mother alone at home?

“It’s fine, my mom is much better now and can handle daily tasks by herself.” Wu Tianci thought about how his mother could now get out of bed, so she could have meals and drink water on her own. He just needed to prepare the meal in advance and keep it warm. This way, she could eat when she was hungry, and it wouldn’t interfere with his job.

“That’s a relief.” After hearing that, Chu Xiaoqiao felt assured. Now, she could carry out her plan of letting Wu Tianci handle the purchasing.
