No sooner said than done, Jiang Quan found some red paper at home, cut it into diamond shapes, each inscribed with characters like "luck", "wealth", "longevity", "happiness", and "prosperity", and marked at the bottom: Fairy Child Gourd.
He then stuck the red paper to his own gourds. He looked at them and felt very satisfied.
He called over his two young friends, Li Dao and Li He, pointed at the red paper and said to them, "From now on, these gourds will be called Fairy Child Gourds. Do you want in?"
Li Dao and Li He were puzzled. "What do you mean?"
"It means, if you two put your gourds here with mine for sale, I'll take thirty percent of the earnings from every sold gourd," explained Jiang Quan.
Li He blinked and seemed a bit reluctant. "Why?"
Jiang Quan held up his chin and said, "Because I sell my gourds at a higher price. You'll earn more money than if you sell them yourselves. So, are you in or out? If you're not interested, I'll find others."
