Major General’s Smart and Gorgeous Wife - Chapter 120.1

Chapter 120 – Setting the trend (Part 1)

People would also be fond of raising those little flower pots, and their price didn’t exceed 10 yuan. It was indeed a bit more expensive than the usual green plants the students would have in their dorm rooms, but they could afford it for something that unbearably cute!

Fortunately, a lot of these little flower pots were left behind by the previous owner Senior Hong Xiaoling. Because she urgently had to prepare her trip and catch a plane to the United States this week, she had no choice but to sell all her leftover stock to Lin Mumu for the price of cabbage.

Otherwise, Hong Xiaoling would have thoroughly seen how much of an unscrupulous business man Lin Mumu could be contrary to any good impressions she’s had of her so far.

On the other side, in only three days, the doorway of Lin Mumu’s store was completely blocked with a pile of crooked orchids, peonies, bamboo bonsais and other rare and precious plants that look broken and worn out.

These flowers and plants originally looked the most delicate and beautiful, however, they each one of them now looked lacking in vigor and withering. Those plants either suffered from parasite insects, rotten roots, or yellow leaves, and none were in a completely good state.

An Xiaoqin was worthy of being the third generation of a wealthy family. With just a few phone calls, she would bring in a lot of business to their store.

So currently, there was only one last problem An Xiaoqin was still worried about:

“Lin Mumu, I had to boast and go all out to bring this much, so you’d better not let me down, or I’ll completely lose my credibility with those people.

I’m telling now before anything else; I won’t permit you to charge any less. The cheapest of pots cost me 500. As for the others, I bought them all for a starting price of 1000 yuan. The owner of that pot over there asked me for 3000 yuan. But the plant looks too rotten to me, so I thought I’d let you have a look first. If you’re not satisfied with anything I brought, let me know and I’ll take them back. “

Lin Mumu looked around all the plants in front of her and nodded in a satisfied manner: “Just leave them all behind.”

An Xiaoqin was very reliable in her work. All the plants and flowers she delivered were very sick but not dying to the point of having no more hope for cure.

“You’ll be earning back a huge profit, right?” Chen Fangya astoundingly looked at the dozen potted flowers at the doorway. Wouldn’t these plants easily earn them about 100 000 yuan if they were all successfully treated?

Lin Mumu shook her head: “This isn’t a long-term business prospective. Before, when people’s flowers and plants fell ill, they couldn’t find anyone to cure them, so they could only keep them until they naturally died or withered. We can stock these until they’re treated, but once they’re all sold, our stock would be gone. Also, not everyone is willing to spend so much money to cure a single plant when it’d be cheaper to buy a new one.”
