The Regent Princess has run away again
Chapter 12: Beginning to Show Business Acumen
As soon as they walked out of Stone Street, Xue Zhiyu paused, turned around and said to Xiaoqiu, "Do you know where I can make that kind of medicine box?"
"You can go to the wooden box shop in front and have a look."
"Then let's go over there."
"Okay, miss."
........
"Miss, do you need a box made? We have jewelry boxes made of fine pearwood and rosewood, and also..."
"I'm here to make a medicine box. Please show me the sample of your medicine box."
The boss, who was originally planning to introduce other boxes in great detail, was stunned. After hearing what she said, his eyes were full of disbelief and a hint of contempt.
"Miss, you may not know that only doctors would buy those for use. You can look at the other boxes. After all, you can't use that."
Xue Zhiyu knew that her boss would not believe her words. Seeing the contempt in his eyes, she felt a little unhappy for some reason. "Did the current emperor say that women cannot become doctors?"
The boss didn't expect her to ask this, and subconsciously shook his head, "No."
"Since His Majesty didn't say so, what qualifications do you have to say so? In ancient times, Yi Shuo treated the Empress Dowager, and she was also a female physician. Do you look down on women being doctors?"
This sentence made the boss break out in a cold sweat. Several passers-by gradually gathered around her. Some of them seemed to recognize her and couldn't help but say, "Miss Xue is right. We support you!"
"Yes, there were women who worked as doctors in the past. This boss is too conservative."
"I don't think that's conservative, it's just being uneducated. I don't know that there are women who can be doctors."
"I was originally planning to come here to make wooden boxes. Since you look down on us women so much, I'll go to another place instead."
"that is!"
The boss's face turned pale. He walked over and looked at Xue Zhiyu with a pleading tone, lowering his voice and saying, "I am a villain who has no eyes to recognize a great man. Please spare me, young lady. I will show you the sample right away. Please help explain it to you."
Xue Zhiyu was not the type to push others everywhere. Seeing that the boss had admitted his mistake, she coughed a few times and said, "Ahem... Thank you for your concern, folks. This matter has been resolved. Sorry for the trouble."
"Miss, please come this way," the boss made a gesture of invitation and led the way.
"Acai, bring the sample drawing of our medicine box to Miss for a look."
The shop assistant named Acai responded and took out a thin notebook from the cabinet and handed it over.
The boss took it and said in a flattering tone, "Miss, if you see anything suitable, just tell me and I will have someone make it as quickly as possible and send it to your house."
"Well, let me take a look first."
Xue Zhiyu took it, flipped through a few pages, frowned, and finished reading it. Except for the different carved patterns, the styles were almost the same, which made her a little disappointed.
"You don't have any other styles of medicine boxes, right?"
"Yes, it's right here. Do you have any favorites, girl?"
"How about this, I'll draw a sketch and you can help me create it," Xue Zhiyu said as she picked up the pen and paper beside her and started drawing.
Under the incredulous looks of several people, he finished the last stroke, hung up the brush in his hand, put it on the table and handed it to the boss, "Just do it according to this, I'll ask my maid to come and get it."
"This, this, this... May I ask your name, young lady? This medicine box is truly amazing. Not only can it store more medicines, it can also be classified. The most amazing thing is that a box can actually be divided into two or three layers."
The boss looked like he wanted to treasure the sketch. He picked it up and looked at it over and over again, and the excitement in his eyes was obvious.
Xiao Qiu behind her came over and asked in a low voice, a little puzzled, "Miss, why didn't I know you could draw? Didn't you dislike these things before? Before, your aunt wanted to teach you, but you refused to learn."
Xue Zhiyu coughed a few times guiltily, glanced at the boss who was still in an excited state, and lowered her voice and said seriously, "I was ignorant before, and now I am not enlightened, so now I am a brand new me."
Xiaoqiu nodded as if she understood, still thinking carefully about the meaning of the young lady's words.
"My last name is Xue, you can just call me Miss Xue. As for the sketch of this medicine box, I can authorize it to you, but I have to take some commission. I don't want much, 50-50," Xue Zhiyu said, making a five gesture.
"May I ask Miss Xue, what does this authorization and commission mean?"
"It means that I will give you the copyright of the sketch, and you just need to give me 50% of the money I earn."
The boss was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a while, and then stammered, "Miss Xue, this may be a little difficult. After all, not many people come to buy this medicine box, so..."
"Who says it can only be made into medicine boxes? It can also be made into other boxes, such as jewelry boxes, or rouge boxes," Xue Zhiyu smiled, her eyes as dazzling as the morning stars full of brilliance.
The boss suddenly realized something and slapped his head, "Miss Xue is right, my brain isn't working well, let's decide it this way, I will personally deliver the medicine box to your house," and was about to put the sketch into his arms.
"Wait, isn't this a bit of a joke to make a verbal promise? Why don't we make a contract? Having two copies will benefit both you and me."
The boss didn't expect that she would even think of this, and couldn't help but look at the woman in front of him again.
Judging from her dress, she must be a daughter of a wealthy family. I thought she would be easy to deceive, but who knew she was so clever.
"In that case... okay, I'll write it out now, Miss Xue, please wait a moment," the boss said, walked to a table on the side, sat down and started writing.
The guy named Acai asked Xue Zhiyu to sit on the wooden chair next to him and wait.
Xue Zhiyu didn't care and forced Xiaoqiu to do it with her. However, the girl refused to do it and acted as if she was going to force her to die. In the end, she had to give up.
After the boss finished writing two copies, he took them to Xue Zhiyu and said, "Miss Xue, is there anything that needs to be changed?"
Xue Zhiyu took a few glances and found that the literal meaning was correct, but...
"Boss, you don't have your signature or fingerprint. I sincerely wanted to cooperate with you, but who knew you would treat me like this. Just pretend I never said anything about this cooperation. Just give me back the sketch," he said and reached out to take the sketch from the boss.
"Hey! No, no, no, Miss Xue, my brain hasn't been working very well recently. Please don't mind. I'll make it up now," the boss quickly picked up a pen and wrote his name, took a mold and stamped it. After two copies were completed, Xue Zhiyu looked at it again before signing her name.
"Okay, this one is yours. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."
"I have to thank Miss Xue for giving me this treasure."
"When it's done, send it to Xue's house. I'm leaving first."
"Okay, okay, Miss Xue, take care."
With the boss's gaze gone, Xue Zhiyu and her partner left the store, planning to go to Sixilou.
Xiao Qiu looked at her with admiration from behind, "Wow, you are so smart, my aunt will be very pleased if she knows this."
"Don't worry, you will definitely have a good life if you hang out with your young lady," Xue Zhiyu couldn't help but feel a little proud after being praised by Xiaoqiu. Although this idea was not hers, but, in the eyes of others, it was her idea. Could she think that her brain in the 21st century could not compare with those of the ancients?
