"Just casually weaving and it turns out ?! Oh my God, your hands are incredibly crafty!" Eric excitedly stepped forward and grasped Xi Mei’s hands.
But Xi Mei’s face, though dusty, revealed a pair of hands that were exceptionally slender and fair, evidently very nimble.
Xi Mei immediately withdrew her hands, feeling embarrassed.
Seeing this, Qianxun couldn’t help but glare at Eric and said, "Can you not just grab Xi Mei’s hands like that? She’s very shy!"
Upon hearing this, Eric quickly apologized, "Sorry, sorry! I was too impulsive! But I really do love your work! If you have more pieces in the future, just come to me! I’ll buy them all!"
"And the price?" Qianxun asked with a smile.
If it were her own simple fabrics, selling them cheap to Eric would be fine, but these were Xi Mei’s fabrics, and Xi Mei wasn’t good at business, she was going to ask Xi Mei to help her weave Defensive Clothing for Yanzhi, so she had to secure a good deal for Xi Mei!
Hearing Qianxun’s words, Eric immediately said, "These fabrics are simply priceless! But if I’m to buy them, there must be a price. How about I offer 600,000 for each piece? I know I’m getting a huge bargain at 600,000, but I’m setting up my own clothing company, so I’m a bit strapped for cash. I can’t afford to pay too much right now. Next time you have more good fabrics, I will pay more. What do you think?"
Qianxun looked towards Xi Mei after hearing this.
Xi Mei never expected her casually woven fabric to be so valuable; she finished a piece in just a few evenings!
For a moment, Xi Mei turned her gaze towards Qianxun.
It was then that Qianxun smiled at Eric and said, "Considering that you are my personal designer, let’s agree on this price! After this, Xi Mei will trade with you directly. If you want any specific patterns, you can discuss it with her, as long as the price is right. Also, Xi Mei is extremely talented in weaving. I hope when you have time, you could give her some pointers. She will definitely be an excellent student!"
Qianxun had no doubt about Xi Mei’s talent in clothing. With Eric’s guidance, she would soon understand what she excelled at and the broad scope for development and popularity in contemporary society.
Eric, who already admired Xi Mei, quickly said, "No problem!"
In his heart, he was secretly jubilant, thinking: With Xi Mei, it’s like having an extra manual weaving machine, and the quality of this ’machine’ is even better than that of the fabrics produced by big-brand industrial printers!
Seeing Eric agree so readily, Xi Mei felt relieved and her gaze towards Qianxun was filled with even more gratitude.
After the negotiation, Eric turned to Xi Mei and said, "What is your bank account number? I’ll have my finance department transfer the money to you now."
Hearing this, Xi Mei looked at Qianxun with a blank expression, wondering what a bank account number was.
She was a village woman from the mountains and had no knowledge of such things.
Seeing her confusion, Qianxun quickly said, "She doesn’t remember it. I’ll send it to you later!"
"Okay, no problem!" Eric nodded readily.
Then, without delaying any further, Qianxun said, "In that case, we won’t bother you any longer. Once Xi Mei is done with her stuff, she’ll come find you. We’ll be taking our leave now!"
"No problem, take care! I won’t see you out!" Eric said, lovingly caressing the smooth, cool satin in his hands.
