After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 160

Egret would never do something like a full-gold custom-made item.

However, she has absolute requirements for aesthetics and quality, and she also prefers aluminum alloy in terms of materials. It's not that aluminum alloy is the best material without any flaws; it's just a matter of personal preference.

The design drawings were naturally produced by Egret itself.

She had already conceived of how to renovate her home while she was in college, but she was short of money and the design drawings were gathering dust.

Bai Lu went back upstairs and opened her laptop, which she hadn't used in a long time. She hadn't turned it on since she quit her job, and it would have been covered in dust if it hadn't been in her laptop bag.

The previous design drafts were a bit immature because I lacked experience and focused on aesthetics rather than practicality. They need to be revised.

As soon as I open the drawing software, my designer DNA kicks in. I can spot the flaws in old design drafts at a glance, and my fingers fly across the keyboard as I constantly adjust every detail of the design.

The location and size of cabinets, desks, and storage spaces in each room are designed by Egret based on the user's height and habits.

Bai Chengao's desk was naturally at a different height than Bai Lu and Bai Wei's.

The value of whole-house customization lies in the word "customization"—it means that the home furnishings should accommodate the people, rather than the people adapting to the home furnishings.

Designing is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive process. Once Bailu was satisfied with the revised design, the final rendering of the completed construction naturally came to mind.

Of course, we also need to ask for the opinions of our family members, including Xiaorui, who is about to become a member of the Bai family.

After numerous revisions, the final draft, which satisfied everyone, was finally completed when Qin Xiu's familiar shout of "Time to eat!" rang out.

Once the draft is approved, you'll naturally need to find a construction team.

Her former boss, Chen Miao, was certainly a good choice. Bai Lu had worked at Mr. Chen's company for several years and naturally had confidence in the quality of his products. Besides, it's always good to keep the profits within the family; this order was quite substantial, with commissions alone amounting to several thousand yuan—if she hadn't resigned!

Since you've already resigned, all we can do is negotiate a discounted price!

Bai Lu dialed Chen Miao's number: "Boss, do you need any projects?"

"Of course!" Chen Miao perked up. "You have another client referred to you? That's great, Lulu! If this deal goes through, you don't need to provide the design, and you'll get half the commission!"

"Half of the commission is unnecessary. It's my house that needs the whole renovation, so just give me a little boost!"

"No problem!" Chen Miao agreed immediately. "What discount do you want? How about 30%?"

The 30% discount is the employee discount price.

There were discounts, but not many, so Bailu wasn't very satisfied. Based on what she learned from Minghui about the current market for whole-house customization, she gave a price quote.

"How much...?" Chen Miao was dumbfounded when he heard the offer! "Bai Lu, you're practically quoting a bargain!"

As expected of a capitalist, he was just being coy a moment ago, and now he's using his full name.

The price quoted by Bailu was very precise; the profit margin wasn't low, but it certainly wasn't high either. Taking the order wouldn't yield much profit, but if they didn't take it, Boss Chen would definitely be reluctant to give it up!
After all, with the current economic downturn, fewer and fewer people are buying houses, and the whole-house customization industry, which is closely related to it, is naturally not doing much business either. According to the intelligence organization Minghui's head, the rival company has not been able to pay salaries for three months!
Chen Miao took a deep breath, his tone becoming somewhat humble: "Could you add a little more?"

“Boss! You’re definitely making a profit at this price!” Bai Lu still habitually addressed Chen Miao as “boss.”
