Summary
On the same day Justus investigates Myne in the lower city, Myne is invited by Corinna to show her the dress and flower hair ornament she wore at her baptism. Effa is very nervous at having her work shown to such a prominent and skilled seamstress, but Tuuli, a big fan of Corinna's work, eagerly asks to go along for the visit.

On the way there, Effa and Tuuli eagerly rehearse their greetings, but they're so star-struck that they forget to say anything when they actually arrive. Corinna warmly welcomes them with tea and snacks, and praises the dress and ornament. She asks if her studio can make and sell hair ornaments like it, and Tuuli is happy to agree.

However, Myne firmly interjects that Corinna will need to purchase the rights and negotiate terms before doing anything of the sort. Effa tells her daughter to hush and not be rude, but Corinna easily agrees and brings them over to Benno to write out a contract.

Effa and Tuuli watch in surprise as Myne haggles over the price with Benno, and are frightened when he starts raising his voice. However, Myne is unfazed and threatens to sell the hair ornaments through Freida if he doesn't give her a good offer. Corinna takes Effa and Tuuli to enjoy tea and talk sewing while the other two finish negotiating terms.

When they finish, Tuuli curiously asks how much Myne sold the production rights for. With visible reluctance, Myne admits the final price was one large and seven small gold coins. Her family is shocked, but she insists fiercely that it's a fair price for the value. Besides, she explains that at least part of the fee will be used on the celebratory gift they give Corinna when her baby is born.
