Chapter 213 Selling Flowers
After deciding to sell flowers in the city, Xia Shiyu immediately took her family to cut flowers from magnolia trees and forsythia bushes.
I put the cut flowers in the basket, and then put the ones Hua Ting wanted separately together. I'll deliver them to her tomorrow.
"Mom, come with me to sell flowers tomorrow."
"Great! These flowers are so beautiful, they'll definitely sell well tomorrow."
Yu Juan readily agreed, which was quite easy to arrange.
After Xia Shiyu and her family finished tidying up, they put the flowers away, temporarily masking the lingering fragrance.
The next morning, Xia Shiyu pulled his mother out of bed and they set off.
"This time we can go directly to places with high foot traffic, as long as we avoid the city management officers."
As Xia Shiyu spoke, he drove the car to the address Hua Ting had given him, intending to deliver the flowers to them first.
When Xia Shiyu arrived, she saw two or three people standing in the flower shop, who she assumed were the shop owners.
She got out of the car and walked closer, and then she saw Hua Ting.
"Hello, your flowers have arrived. Where should we put them now?"
"Huh?" The people who were chatting stopped talking and turned to look at the door.
Hua Ting was the first to realize that this was the shop owner she had ordered flowers from yesterday. She replied, "Coming," and turned to her sister to say, "Sister, this is the shop owner we ordered flowers from yesterday. He should be delivering the flowers today."
"Oh, you're here quite early. Let's go out together and bring the flowers in."
Hua Yu followed her out, and Hua Ting greeted the boss first when she saw him.
"Boss, you're here so early. Have you had breakfast yet?"
Xia Shiyu nodded, "I've already eaten."
"That's good."
After exchanging pleasantries, Xia Shiyu and her mother brought down the magnolia flowers they had arranged.
The magnolia blossoms leaned beautifully against the branches and were placed in bamboo baskets without being crushed. Even after a whole night, they showed no signs of decay and remained exceptionally fragrant and beautiful.
The moment Hua Yu saw the flower, she couldn't help but exclaim, "So beautiful!"
After talking about the magnolia, Hua Yu also saw the forsythia placed in the car. Although she didn't buy it yesterday because she thought it was too expensive, she saw the little yellow flowers adorning the simple branches, and they were very fragrant and looked beautiful.
I was even a little tempted by her, but in the end I managed to control myself.
After carefully inspecting the flowers and confirming that they were neither damaged nor stale, I promptly signed for and paid.
Finally, she couldn't help but praise, "Boss, your skills are amazing, these flowers are so beautiful."
Xia Shiyu smiled and said, "Both of these flowers are indeed quite beautiful, and they also have some special functions and medicinal value. If you find them useful, please feel free to purchase them again next time."
Hua Yu nodded, quite tempted. The flower was beautiful, but she didn't really care about its medicinal value.
After all, many flowers and plants can be used to make traditional Chinese medicine or added to traditional Chinese medicine, but those who work with flowers generally only value their beauty and don't consider other aspects too much. After all, these flowers aren't magical flowers; you can't expect to be cured immediately by eating one.
"Yes, definitely."
After talking with Hua Yu for a while, Xia Shiyu ended the flower delivery process.
Next, they will go to other places to sell flowers.
Xia Shiyu and her mother planned to sell flowers near the busiest shopping plaza. According to her, the plaza was very popular, with people coming here for shopping, dining, and entertainment.
When we arrived at the destination, we indeed saw a lot of people there.
They found a place to park the car first. Xia Shiyu then took out two handcarts, put the flowers inside, locked the car doors, and then she and Yu Juan went to find a spot.
We can just send someone back to get more flowers when they run out.
The two people had already attracted a lot of attention when they were pulling a handcart to find a spot.
"Wow, Xiaolei, look how beautiful the flowers are!"
"Those flowers look so fresh, like they were just picked."
"It smells so good. I could smell the fragrance of flowers when they passed by."
"They look pretty good. Should I buy a couple? They're making me feel good."
Listening to the conversations around him, Xia Shiyu knew that his little flower had already attracted a lot of people.
After she and her mother found the right spot, they stopped there. She even took out two small folding stools, handing one to her mother and placing the other under herself.
Once the price tags are up, the flower stall is complete.
Before they could even start shouting, people came forward and began to watch the flower stall.
Because Xia Shiyu posted the prices, everyone checked them first.
"25 yuan a branch, and there are only a few flowers on this branch, it feels so expensive."
"It is a bit expensive. Ordering flowers from a food delivery service is not even this expensive."
"But it looks really fragrant and pretty. If I bought it, I would be in a good mood for a day."
"Yeah, I'm so hesitant."
Some were scared away by the price and walked away, while others hesitated and lingered around.
Xia Shiyu didn't put any psychological pressure on these people. He simply arranged the flowers a few times, making them face the crowd, and a gentle breeze carried their fragrance.
Finally, someone couldn't resist the temptation and stepped forward.
"Boss, could I have a magnolia flower?"
Xia Shiyu nodded, "You can choose whichever you like."
The girl immediately chose a branch with two or three flowers.
Xia Shiyu asked, "Should I wrap it up for you? Or should I just leave it like this?"
"No need, I'll just hold it like this, it smells so good."
The girl held the flower in her hand to her nose and smelled it. The rich fragrance of magnolia blossoms filled her senses, and a single breath made her feel refreshed.
She quickly paid and left with the flowers.
Once there was a first one, there was a second, and gradually a crowd gathered around.
"Hello boss, we'd like a magnolia and a forsythia."
Xiao Lei and Du Yue stepped forward. They had been tempted by the flowers and had been watching them for a while before finally giving in and buying some.
"Okay, you can choose for yourselves."
The two each picked one they liked, paid for it, and left together.
"These flowers smell so good. Although I felt a little bad about paying for them, I'm really happy to have them now."
"Yes, look how beautiful these magnolias are for taking pictures! Can you take one for me?"
“Okay, no problem, we can take turns shooting.”
The two walked away laughing and joking.
More and more guests were coming to Xia Shiyu's table.
