438 The Allure of Handbags
Facing everyoneâs discussion, Ye Lingchen smiled and said nothing.
âYou think Iâm really awesome? Well, youâre all wrong. Iâm much more awesome than you think.â
âGod Ye.â
At that moment, the director suddenly turned to Ye Lingchen and said, âGod Ye, someone posted a banner in the live broadcast saying that theyâd like to buy the pythonâs skin.â
âOh? They want to buy the pythonâs skin?â
Ye Lingchen immediately guessed the other partyâs intention. âAt what price?â
âFive million!â the director said.
âHiss!â
Everyone inhaled sharply again. They thought that the meat of the python was already worth a lot of money, but it came as a complete shock that some people would buy the snakeskin at a high price. It was too ruthless. Were those rich guys making light of money?
However, Ye Lingchen frowned. âNot the slightest sincerity. Iâm not selling!â
âThe other party said that the price can be negotiated. He asks you to name your price.â The director looked at the screen and said to Ye Lingchen.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI wonât sell it at any price!â Ye Lingchen shook his head and answered bluntly. He had his own plans for it.
The meat of that giant python was valuable, but its skin was also equally as valuable!
Its skin could be used to make bags!
It must be borne in mind that bags were a girlâs fatal attraction. The saying that âhandbagsâ could cure all diseases clearly revealed the fairer sexâs obsession toward bags.
Expensive bags, such as Gucci and Louis Vuitton, could sell for tens of thousands! Hermès could sell upwards of 100,000 and most people were not able to buy it!
The craze was all too evident and it had already become a status symbol.
Snakeskin was a very good material for making bags. Needless to say, the reputation and quality of snakeskin bags spoke for itself, and the result of using that giant pythonâs skin to make a bag was truly unimaginable!
If the business was managed properly, it could definitely become a hit!
Ye Lingchen sat on the tortoiseâs back and his gaze drifted away slowly. It was all up to whoever that could seize the opportunity.
Ring-ding-ding!
The next second, Ye Lingchenâs mobile phone rang and he looked at the caller ID. The corner of his mouth curled up in a smile. It was Vattiâs chief designer, Jia Di.
âGrandmaster Jia, I didnât expect you to watch Lifeâs Struggles too.â
âGrandmaster Ye, the show you participated in is so popular that itâs hard not to follow it,â Jia Diâs voice came from the phone. In fact, he initially only saw the news, and as the chief designer, he was more conscious of things such as python skin, but it never crossed his mind that the protagonist would be Grandmaster Ye.
Jia Di paused and continued, âGrandmaster Ye, I have a request. Can you reserve this giant pythonâs skin for Vatti?â
Ye Lingchen formed a smile at the corner of his mouth. âGrandmaster Jia, are you ready to take up the advice I gave you last time?â
âMm!â
Jia Di responded solemnly. âSince Grandmaster Ye has confidence in Vatti, we also have confidence in Grandmaster Ye!â
âIn that case, the skin of this giant python will certainly be reserved for Vatti.â Ye Lingchen smiled. âCome to my place when Iâm back. I have something for you. Rest assured, your choice is always correct!â
âOkay!â
After hanging up the phone, Ye Lingchen saw that both Hu Yueâer and Zhao Liangying were looking at him. He could not resist asking, âDo any of you want a bag?â
âYou want to give us a bag?â Hu Yueâer and Zhao Liangyingâs eyes lit up. Bag or not, it was not the main point. The key was that they loved whatever Ye Lingchen gave to them.
âThe skin of this python is valuable because it can be used to make bags,â Ye Lingchen continued. âThe call just now was from Vatti. Iâm prepared to give them the skin of this python, and when the time comes, it wonât be a problem to give you a bag.â
âWow, really?â Hu Yueâer and Zhao Liangying were looking forward to it.
âReally.â Ye Lingchen nodded. In fact, his primary purpose was to take advantage of this opportunity to advertise. âThis python is very extraordinary. Any bag made from its skin will be water-proof. The quality is very good as well, and itâs difficult to leave scratches on it. Keeping it for a hundred years wonât even be a problem. Moreover, it wouldnât burn too quickly in the case of a fire. It also has the function of heat insulation, which translates to being warm in winter and cool in summer.â
âWow, wow, wow! Lingchen, youâre amazing! I love you to death!â Zhao Liangying immediately screamed excitedly.
âVatti? Looking forward to their design.â Hu Yueâerâs face flushed with excitement and anticipation.
Girls had zero resistance to bags.
Their conversation was naturally picked up by the live broadcast and the viewers were all sent into a frenzy.
[Ah, I almost forgot. Snakeskin can be made into bags!]
[Where do they sell this kind of bag? I want to buy it! I must buy it! I really envy Baby Ying and Hu Yueâer! I want it too!]
[A bag made from this giant pythonâs skin would truly be unique! No one else can imitate it! Youâll make an impression if you go out with it.]
[If thatâs what God Ye says, then the bag can be considered a treasure!]
[God Ye gave it to Vatti. Ah, ah, ah! Iâm going to contact Vatti as soon as possible and book one!]
[Such good material! I hope Vatti will not waste it. They must design it well.]
...
He Jia, Huang Lei, and the others pursed their lips. As married men, they immediately noticed how lethal such handbags were. They wanted to speak to Ye Lingchen and ask to buy one of those bags, but at the same time, they felt a bit embarrassed too.
After a while, the Mushroom Hut appeared in their line of sight. Old Tortoise had to stay outside because it was too big, and Ye Lingchen also had to leave the giant pythonâs body outside.
âItâs noon. Time to prepare lunch.â
Ye Lingchen said faintly before taking out the cleaver from the kitchen. He walked to the side of the python and nonchalantly cut off a part of the meat.
âGod Ye, why is this giant pythonâs meat so soft?â Wei Daxun could not help but wonder after seeing how relaxed Ye Lingchen was.
âSoft? Why donât you give it a try?â Ye Lingchen smiled and passed the cleaver to him.
Wei Daxun began cutting along the place where Ye Lingchen had started, but all he felt was a taut resistance as if he was cutting the wood. It was extremely hard.
âThis... Whatâs going on? God Ye, I think your strength is a bit too powerful is it not?â Wei Daxun was overcome with shock.
âDaxun, havenât you heard of âpractice makes perfectâ? Itâs not like you havenât seen God Yeâs cooking skills before. Whatâs all the fuss about his knife skills.â Huang Lei laughed aloud, but in fact, he was deeply impressed with Ye Lingchenâs incredible knife skills.
âLingchen, do we really have to eat this? Iâve never eaten snake meat ever since I was a child. Iâm afraid to eat it.â Zhao Liangying was a little nervous.
âI donât dare to eat it either,â Hu Yueâer said.
âIf you donât dare to eat it, then just watch us.â Ye Lingchen smiled and started prepping the snake meat.
He took out a large plate, added various seasonings to it, and filled it with white wine. Then, he put in the sliced ââsnake meat. The first step was to marinate, not with salt, but to remove the bacteria from the snake meat itself. At the same time, it made the snake meat tender and much easier for the flavor to permeate.
After half an hour, Ye Lingchen took out the snake meat and started cooking it...
