Yun Xia transmigrated into the body of a pitiful orphan in the 1980s, living in a den of wolves and constantly being bullied. Since she took over this body, she naturally had to avenge its original...
Chapter 76 Grand Opening
"Jiang An, be gentle. If you damage the flower wreath, you'll be punished with slippers."
"Hehe, no way, I'm not like my brother, who doesn't know his own strength."
Jiang Chao, who had devoured an iron pot last night, was furious and turned to tidy up another shelf.
Yunxia poked his cheek and said helplessly, "You always know how to make your brother angry!"
"Hehe, my brother is very magnanimous, he would never be angry with An'an."
"hehe!"
Hearing his tone, she knew he was quite angry. Raising her eyebrows slightly, she quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him away from the trouble.
Half an hour later, the roller shutter door was pulled up from the inside, and four burly men dressed in a "unique" style stood at the door with their hands behind their backs.
Potential customers who had gathered at the entrance for the event were initially startled when they saw them, but then... burst into laughter.
"Haha, the shop owner is really something, hanging garlic around his neck, is he trying to ward off evil spirits?"
"A man wearing a pink rose wreath, isn't he ashamed? Is he even going on a blind date here?"
"Hmm, this red bean bracelet looks nice. I wonder if the store sells it?"
...
"Dear uncles, aunts, grandpas, grandmas, brothers and sisters, the sun is very strong today, so please don't stay outside in the sun. The store has air conditioning, so it's very cool inside. Everything is 20% off, and you can also get points and a lucky draw. These activities don't conflict with the discounts. Fruits are limited to a certain number of pieces for tasting!"
Upon hearing this, everyone rushed into the store without waiting.
Every time a customer entered the store, the burly man at the door would say in a stern voice, "Welcome."
If it weren't for the flower wreath, garlic, and red beans, it would probably scare away a lot of people.
Gu Xun has a wide network of connections, so his goods have low purchase prices and naturally, low prices as well. In addition, there's a 20% discount during the opening promotion, which saves a lot of money.
It's always good to stock up on daily necessities.
These days, almost every family has a few kids, so the snack section is never short of customers.
The elderly men and women, upon seeing the price of fresh vegetables, went on a buying spree, and soon the shelves were empty. Seeing this, Feng Jingling brought out a large box of vegetables from the warehouse and hurriedly restocked.
Yunxia skillfully used the scale, weighed the items, filled in the labels, and stuck them on the bags.
No one can grow three hands, and the weighing line was incredibly long. Jiang Chao, who was sorting the goods, heard a few grumbling complaints and glanced at the quick-moving young woman.
He snorted and turned to the warehouse, where he retrieved another scale. The two of them weighed the items simultaneously, and the team moved much faster.
Wu Lifang, the cashier, smiled as she tapped on the calculator, recording the total price, collecting payments, giving change, issuing loyalty cards, and handing out raffle prizes. She was so busy she could barely turn around.
Worried that her mother would be too tired, Xiao Jiang'an quickly took on the task of delivering loyalty cards and participating in the lucky draw. Her fair face and soft, cute tone melted the hearts of the customers, and their anxiety about queuing disappeared.
With her sweet talk, Feng Jingling restocked the stock and then carried a large aluminum tray, promoting the fruit one by one. The fruit was large and plump, tasted excellent, and the price was very reasonable. In no time, she had sold dozens of kilograms.
The group worked non-stop until 1 a.m. before they finally had a chance to catch their breath.
It's worth mentioning that in the morning, Gu Xun and Bai Ye sent someone to deliver flower baskets, which were placed at the door and looked quite beautiful. Xiao Jiang'an kept craning his neck out, as if afraid that someone else would snatch the flowers away.
"Phew, little butterfly, give me a shoulder massage, I'm so tired."
"Hey! She's not here, you surnamed Feng, let me give you a massage!"
"Ah, it hurts...it hurts! Jiang Chao, this is murder!"
"Ptooey, ptooey, Lingling, quickly spit into the trash can to get rid of your bad luck."
The boy regretted his words as soon as they left his mouth, and upon hearing them, he quickly did as instructed.
Between 1 and 2 p.m., the hottest time of day, Yunxia, carrying cold fish and scallion pancakes, called out to the four burly men at the door to come in for a meal.
"Are you starving? Eat quickly, then rest for a bit. We have a tough battle to fight this afternoon."
"Phew, running a shop is so tiring. School's starting now, will godmother be able to manage all this by herself?"
"Lingling, yes, of course it can. The supermarket has just opened, and everyone is looking forward to the new experience, so there are a lot of people coming. After half a month, the number of customers will stabilize, and it won't be like today, with a huge influx of people in a short period of time."
The two of them started asking and answering questions, and Yunxia, who was eating fish, glanced at the beaming young man and thought to herself that he was really good at pretending. His family ran a business, and he must know all the ins and outs of running a shop.
After dinner, Yunxia opened the freezer and gave each person a creamy ice cream.
The burly uncles were quite dedicated; they only listened to Feng Jingling. They needed the boy's permission to eat and receive ice cream, and even when they were sweating profusely, they wouldn't unbutton their collars.
"Big brother, it's hot, let them stand all day."
"That won't do. If it's only for three days, then it's three days. How can we enhance the prestige of Chao'an Supermarket if we don't stand there long enough? What if someone takes care of the store in the future and has no one to rely on, and they bully Godmother?"
It must be said that the boy was very thoughtful. After considering it for a while, Yunxia stopped trying to persuade him.
Good quality and low price, everyone who bought it said it was good. Word spread quickly, and residents who had been waiting at home in the morning couldn't sit still any longer after seeing their neighbors showing off. After lunch, they rushed to the supermarket.
From 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., the shop becomes lively again.
People were packed together, and everyone was so busy that they didn't even have time to drink water. Luckily, there were plenty of fresh vegetables available, otherwise... the spittle from the old men and women could have drowned people.
In this day and age, people rest early. Around 8 o'clock, there were only a few customers who had just finished get off work browsing in the store. Feng Jingling told the doormen to go home first, and the group began to tidy up.
Cut fruits and vegetables should never be left until the next day. Just as Yunxia was about to put down her head to carry out the "Clean Plate Campaign," a high-pitched and piercing sound suddenly came from in front of her.
"Nannan, Haohao, hurry up, the door is about to close."
Looking up, I saw Grandma Wang! Well, it's never too late to take advantage of someone!
"Girl, what time do you close?"
"Welcome! We close at 9 PM, Grandma Wang. Please choose what you'd like to buy as soon as possible!"
"Grandma, I want to eat...that."
The ill-fitting purple short-sleeved shirt made her look even darker and thinner, and her eyes, fixed on the chunks of fruit, were filled with longing and shyness.
"A cowardly fellow who wants to eat has to go by himself."
Upon hearing this, the girl named Nannan trembled with fear, lowered her head and stared intently at the ground, not daring to look at anyone.
"Ugh, favoring boys over girls is unacceptable." He stuck a slice of watermelon on a bamboo skewer, held it out, and said, "New store opening, free fruit samples, three slices of each kind, little girl... sigh, why is she trying to grab it?"
"Hmph, slow as a flash, you can't even catch the hot shit."
Yunxia: Kid, you're eating watermelon right now, don't you feel disgusted saying that?
When her food was taken, Nannan only glanced at it and did not express any resistance, suggesting that this kind of thing happens frequently.
"You good-for-nothing, learn from your brother. If you want something good, you should try to get it. Otherwise, once you get married, you'll only be bullied in your husband's family."
"Grandma Wang, how old is Nannan? She's too young to get married!"
The little girl twisted the hem of her dress and said listlessly, "It's getting late!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Xia narrowed her eyes and stared sharply at the old woman. "There are regulations on the legal age for marriage. If anyone dares to violate them, I will write a letter and submit it to the relevant authorities."
