Sweet Revenge

Chapter 134

Chapter 134 I want him to make 
“I do think that the fragrance is quite special.” Silvia said bluntly, “And you have a very mixed scent in this shop, so you shouldn’t be using the same kind of wood, right?”
The owner was confused at first, but after she explained, she suddenly understood and clapped her hands,
“Oh my! So you’re a connoisseur! Let me tell you, we use the best sandalwood and camphor wood, as well as ebony and rosewood…only what you can think of, nothing I don’t have. What kind of material do you want for the wood carving, beautiful? If you are not satisfied, it is possible to order separately. Of course, the price is…”
“Do you have additional customization available here?” She asked with interest.
“Of course you can!
After all, there will always be customers with their own special preferences and requirements and although our shop is small, we can cater for most of them.
But in terms of price, it’s definitely a bit more expensive.
But you get what you pay for and after all, you get what you pay for, don’t you think?”
Silvia saved herself a lot of effort when she was confronted with his clever tongue, “That’s right, but how many customers buy this kind of special order?”
“Not many, but there are always a handful of them throughout the year, after all, they can afford to pay….”
The words stopped abruptly, the boss suddenly felt something wrong and looked at her with a wary face,
“Girl, why are you asking so many questions? What? Do you want to buy it or do you want to customize it? If you’re ordering, please write down the requirements, plus pay the deposit.”
“This…” she said with a smile as she cruised around the shop.
Seeing her attitude, the boss felt that he had wasted so much breath for nothing and was instantly upset, “Girl if you don’t plan to buy today, just take a look.”
After saying that, he turned his head to leave when Silvia pointed her finger at a pair of small wooden carvings on the side, “Let’s have this one.”
It was a pair of small wooden figures, the boy was carved as a small monk with a round head and
face, smiling and laughing, while the girl was tied with two small ties, tilting her head and holding a string of sugar gourds in her hand.
“Good.” The owner’s smile piled up again and while carefully reaching for it, he turned his head to
the young man and said,
“What are you still doing, why don’t you go and get the box and wrap it for the customer?”
Slowly standing up, the lad went and brought the box and bag over to her to pack the little wooden figures.
“Boss, I’d like to order a wooden sculpture, I’ll probably pick it up next month, is it in time?” Silvia asked casually as she scanned the code and paid.
She had actually thought of it on the spur of the moment, so she asked it casually.
“In time, of course. What kind of wood do you want to use and what do you want to carve? What is
the approximate size and what are your other requirements
Silvia looked at it and pointed to the hall finished piece the young man was carving. “It’s about that
size, but I’ll tell you in a couple of days what to carve and what wood to use.
“Yes, yes!” The owner nodded his head repeatedly, “Then the deposit…”
“I’ll pay part of it now, but I have a request.”
“What kind of request, you can just mention it.”
This kind of private custom made ones are high priced and highly profitable, the boss is naturally
enthusiastic and will agree to anything he can do.
“I want him to carve this piece!” Pointing her finger at the young man, she said with a serious face.
“??” The young man looked up at her in surprise, his face full of the words, “Did I hear you wrong?
The boss was also surprised, “Him? But he’s just an apprentice, if you ask for individual customization, we have professional level senior craftsmen in our shop…”
“No need.” Interrupting the boss’s introduction, Silvia walked over and bent down to look at the semi-finished product he had carved, “I think he does a good job and I want him to do it.”
“I can’t do it well.” He was surprised to hear him balk.
“I think you do a good job and if you don’t, then I’ll find someone else who does.” Taking the bag, Silvia turned around as she spoke.
The boss stopped her as she saw how her business could fly away,
“Wait a minute, girl, if you like his work, that’s a compliment. I’m not the one to say what he says, I’m the one to say what I say. It’s settled, he’ll do it, he’ll make sure it’s done properly for you, to your satisfaction!”
“You shut up! You either do it or don’t come!”
Silvia paid the deposit and took the ticket, walked over to what the young man had carved, looked down and bent down to pick up a small scrap, “Boss, can I take this with me?”
“Yes, of course!”
A small crumb, the boss said, not taking it seriously and unconcerned.
Not far from the shop, there was the sound of small footsteps behind her, Silvia stopped without turning around, the footsteps stopped at the same time
She smiled slightly and moved on, turning a corner with quick movements and waiting with her body pressed against the wall and sure enough it wasn’t long before she saw the figure from the square, walking forward and looking left and right
“Are you looking for me?” Standing out, Silvia looked at him and smiled faintly
“…” Poked and prodded and simply no longer hiding, the lad stared at her, ”Why did you let me do it?”
“I think you’re good with your hands!” Silvia said with a smile
“You haven’t seen me make anything, how do you know I’m good at it?” He was defiant, “Are you
deliberately trying to spite me?”
“What good would it do me to spite you?”
She said, pulling out the scrap of wood she had picked up earlier,
“Besides, how come I haven’t seen what you’ve made, aren’t you working on it?”
“That one’s not done yet.” The mention of something he’d made reined in his rebellious aura.
“I know, but it’s half-finished and already very somewhat plausible. Besides …”
she paused, “most of the wood carvings in the shop are actually from your hands, right? Including the pair of little figures I bought today?”
Hearing her words, the young man was surprised, “How did you know?!”
I was
“Looking at the way the knife falls and the strength and the wandering outline, it’s still roughly obvious that there’s a commonality.”
So what the boss said about senior craftsmen and masters is just a lot of nonsense, looking for a gimmick to sell, anyway, those who come to buy this are not necessarily many real insiders and
they are not very careful about which master carved it.
The young man’s eyes lit up, “You’re a woodcarver too?”
She shook her head, “No, I’m not! But I wanted to ask, all this wood you use, is it all purchased uniformly in the shop? Or is it…”
“What are you asking that for?” He said.
“Curious, just asking.” Silvia looked at him, “Can’t you say?”
After a moment’s thought, he replied, “It’s all purchased centrally by the owner, you’ll have to ask him if you want to know where it was purchased.”
“All of it?” She said, shaking a small piece of wood shavings in her hand, “Including this?”
