My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 348 - 1 The First Guests_2

She had brought people who were all close friends and family. That’s why she spoke so directly.

Lin Xiaoguai approached and exchanged pleasantries. Initially, everyone was captivated by the store’s lavish decor, and only after a while did their gaze shift to the merchandise on the shelves. But it didn’t take long for their expressions to turn sour.

These prices... Were they not tantamount to extortion? Surely they didn’t know they were coming today?

Mrs. Shen didn’t seem like that kind of person before, did she?

Lin Xiaoguai sighed. If these were regular customers, she wouldn’t bother much—take it or leave it. But these were Zheng Cuicui’s friends and relatives who had specifically come to support her business; she couldn’t afford to snub them.

Noticing Rui Ying’s gaze on a box of Scar Removal Ointment, Lin Xiaoguai stepped forward and asked, "Does Yingying have some old scars?" They were somewhat acquainted, which is why she asked so directly.

Everybody turned to look as Rui Ying responded openly, "I was mischievous as a child and fell from a tree, leaving a two-centimeter scar on my knee that never faded. I’ve been too self-conscious to wear short skirts, so I’m particularly interested in this scar removal ointment."

"My oldest son had a facial injury; you might have seen it, Yingying," Lin Xiaoguai said with a smile.

Many people had seen Shen Yinian’s facial injury, and since scar removal ointments take time to work, many thought the scar would remain and felt sorry that such a handsome young man would be marred. But a few months passed, and Shen Yinian’s scar faded day by day, now leaving no trace at all.

"Do you mean that Young Master got rid of his scars by using this ointment?" Before Rui Ying could answer, her mother, Mrs. Rui, eagerly inquired.

As a mother, she naturally hoped her daughter would be flawless.

"Yes," Lin Xiaoguai said with a smile.

"But my scar has been there for over a decade; can it still be removed?" Rui Ying was hesitant.

The scar ointment was hardly bigger than a bottle cap, and a box was priced at $200—a painful amount even for someone with money.

"How about this," Lin Xiaoguai didn’t sugarcoat her words but simply proposed, "If Yingying uses this ointment and it doesn’t work, I’ll refund double the money for the ointment. How does that sound?"

She said with a smile, "With so many acquaintances here today, it’s impossible for me to renege on the deal."

This wasn’t like future times where false claims such as ’ten times the fine for a fake’ were rampant. Lin Xiaoguai’s words carried significant weight, and none thought that the wife of a junior general would break her promise.

Upon hearing this, Rui Ying joyfully decided to purchase the scar removal ointment, and the mood among the others lifted as well.

Lin Xiaoguai’s assurance about the scar removal ointment demonstrated her confidence in her products. If the ointment was good, how could the other items be inferior?

Given their relationships, it was unlikely that Lin Xiaoguai would deceive them.

"Xiao Guai, I like these earrings, but aren’t they a bit too expensive? I saw a similar size at Xiangfu Pavilion for only a little over eight hundred; why are these priced at five thousand?" Zheng Cuicui’s aunt, Zhong Lihua, asked through gritted teeth.

The elderly woman genuinely admired the earrings. They were simple yet elegant, and even she could wear them without appearing frivolous.

But the price...

"Aunt Zhong, I wouldn’t dare deceive you," Lin Xiaoguai said, taking the earrings out of the display case. "Please take a closer look, Aunt Zhong. I don’t know what material the earrings you saw at Xiangfu Pavilion were made of, but these earrings here are made of top-quality mutton fat jade. You’re an expert and will recognize the difference. Look at the hooks on these earrings; they might look silver, but they are made of platinum, which is thirty times rarer than gold. Look at the craftsmanship; if I may say so myself, it’s on par with that of experienced masters."

"You made these?" Mrs. Zhong asked, surprised, pulling out a pair of reading glasses to take a closer look. She then nodded and said, "The craftsmanship is indeed excellent, comparable to the finest jewelry I’ve seen in my life." She truly was knowledgeable, otherwise, few in this era would understand what platinum was.

Lin Xiaoguai was somewhat speechless—the old lady had farsightedness, which explained her reluctance to read descriptions and her need to ask questions directly.

Although some people couldn’t quite follow their conversation, they too understood that the earrings were a worthy purchase. Initially skeptical about the descriptions on the shelves, they now paid close attention.

If everything in the store was like the scar removal ointment and earrings, then the prices were not deceiving!

"Mrs. Shen..."

"Xiao Guai..."

"Mrs. Lin..."

Everyone started inquiring about the goods they were interested in.

"Stop, stop," Zheng Cuicui, seeing Lin Xiaoguai surrounded, quickly intervened with a joke: "Don’t keep calling her Mrs. Shen, Xiao Guai, or Mrs. Lin—call her the boss. It’s my sister-in-law’s first time being a boss; you have to let her enjoy being in charge."

"Alright, alright, we’ll call her ’Boss,’" everyone laughed.

Lin Xiaoguai also smiled and said, "All the items in the store come with detailed descriptions. Please read these first, and if there’s anything you still don’t understand, feel free to ask me." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

"So, the descriptions aren’t exaggerated?" someone questioned.

"Absolutely not," Lin Xiaoguai said with a smile. "If you don’t believe it, you are welcome to have the items appraised after buying them. I think everyone here has the means to do that. If it turns out any of the items are fake, just like with Yingying before, I’ll return double the money without a word."

She did not say much else; none of the people present would risk their reputations for some money, and if for another reason... she had her own means of defense. (To be continued.
