Chapter 205
She also tasted the sweetness.
Many people who came today were here to watch the fun and wanted to find out what was going on between them and the neighbors.
Boss Shen was so thirsty that he sold a lot of things.
But this kind of thing is enough to be told once. You won’t be able to keep people if you don’t have new ideas.
But the guy next door didn't fall for it either.
Tian Bajiao: "Maybe you didn't hear it. How about speaking louder?"
"Forget it, it's not too late to fight another day," Boss Shen pinched his sore throat and said cheerfully, "We should at least give her some time to cry."
“The boss is so kind.”
"No way, it's innate."
"Oh, Boss," Tian Bajiao said, remembering something, "Mrs. Wang from across the street also helped to attract customers today."
"She?" Boss Shen seemed a little surprised. "When did it happen? Why didn't I see it?"
"Boss, you were just busy collecting money. Besides, she didn't come in. She was always on the street. Some people who were waiting impatiently were persuaded by her to stay."
Boss Shen had said before that she was just a good person and had no bad intentions.
Tian Bajiao believed it, but Boss Shen obviously didn't.
After hearing what she said, he pondered for a moment: "It seems that I blamed her wrongly? I will go talk to her later. After all, it's not good for neighbors to make things too awkward."
"It would be a good thing if the boss could be on good terms with Madam Wang. She knows a lot about everything. It's always a good idea to ask her about the gossips of the boss and the Li family."
"Alright, I know what's going on. If you're tired, go to bed first. I reckon we can still be busy for another two or three days. If you're well rested and refreshed, you'll be more pleasing to the guests."
Boss Shen is quite considerate.
"Let's finish the accounting first." Tian Bajiao was not in a hurry. After the two of them finished the accounting, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Business was not so good on the second day, but it was still quite lively with people coming and going.
The people next door were really patient this time. I don’t know if it was because they boasted too much and were afraid of losing face, or what, but Madam Liu never came to their side.
Boss Shen was really worried, so he asked Tian Bajiao to take a look secretly.
She only saw Madam Liu smiling and entertaining guests inside, and Mr. Zhou Er was also helping. The two of them looked quite gentle and kind.
We can’t tell anything in just two days, but over time we’ll probably be able to retain some customers.
I've smelled Tian Bajiao before, and the spices in their store are indeed good, some of them are even better than those here.
This really discouraged Boss Shen: "No! We have to get some better spices."
"That's good, but where can I find it?"
The spices used by Dingxiangfang today were delivered by a lame merchant.
Tian Bajiao had met him once, and Boss Shen said that this person only came once every six months, so she had decided what she wanted early on.
If I exchange it now, what should I do when the item is delivered? Should I ask him to take it back?
Tian Bajiao didn't know what the relationship between Boss Shen and the merchant was, but she thought the merchant's followers were not good people. If she dared to do that kind of thing, she would definitely not end up well.
That person doesn't look as easy to fool as Lady Wang.
After listening to what Tian Bajiao said, Boss Shen thought for a moment before saying, "We want that batch of goods too! We'll talk about this later. Let's find a new source first."
Tian Bajiao nodded: "Okay, where should we look for it?"
"Keep an eye on the neighbors next door," Boss Shen said decisively without hesitation. "See who they're getting their goods from, and then we can go get some too. It's no wonder that business is delivered to our doorstep, no matter who it is."
Boss Shen knew that this matter could not be rushed, and the spices in the store would not be sold out all at once.
So she planned to take it step by step with Tian Bajiao.
Judging from her expression...it seems that she and Mr. Zhou Er are really not in the same group.
It's like he doesn't recognize me at all.
Tian Bajiao was still a little confused about what Zhou Erye was trying to achieve.
But if this Boss Shen is fake, then what she wants must be to make money and get rich. She is really running the business with all her heart and wants to revive this half-dead shop.
Instead of being like Boss Shen, who works for three days and rests for two days.
It can be seen that she really wants to be Boss Shen.
She knew everything about Boss Shen, but the way Mrs. Wang next door looked at her was getting more and more strange. In the first few days, when Boss Shen went to her to reconcile, Mrs. Wang was quite happy and chatted with her from time to time as before, but it was no longer Boss Shen who went to her, but she went to Boss Shen.
Madam Wang was cheerful and not unhappy about this matter. Boss Shen was interested in making friends with her and spoke to her enthusiastically.
Lian Tian Bajiao couldn't find any fault with her, but Lady Wang's attitude towards her was becoming more and more different and more distant.
Once, when Boss Shen was out, she even sneaked up to Tian Bajiao and asked, "Do you feel...that there's something wrong with your boss?"
Tian Bajiao pretended to be confused and said, "Ah? Really? It seems...there's nothing wrong."
"She definitely has!" Madam Wang said firmly, "Have you noticed that she's been distracted a lot lately? Even when she's talking to you, she's not even looking at you. It's like..."
She rubbed her arms, looked around, and lowered her voice, saying, "She seems to be looking at something else. And, whenever she talks about the past, she becomes particularly talkative. It's not that she can't be talkative, but there's just something wrong with her!"
Madam Wang couldn't explain why. She just instinctively felt that something was wrong. Tian Bajiao had heard such words a few days ago. She went to Huifeng Restaurant to deliver spices to the shopkeeper Huang who had previously worked at Dingxiangfang. He also said with emotion:
"She's really grown up. When I met her a few months ago, she seemed like a child who hadn't grown up yet. But now she can already do things. It's really hard for her to run the shop by herself. Such a playful person is like being chained up, confined to the counter all day. I was worried that she would be suffocated. Hiring you will make things easier for her..."
Shopkeeper Huang and Boss Shen were not close friends. Even though they had seen each other more often when they were young, he still felt that something was wrong with her. What's more, Madam Wang was the one who chatted with her every day to relieve her boredom.
Tian Bajiao pondered for a moment and said, "The boss may be too tired. The store has been much busier than usual recently. Maybe she will be better when she has some free time."
Lady Wang said doubtfully, "Maybe. I'll go back first... Well, Bajiao, if anything happens to her, you must tell me. I'm her best friend and I won't hurt her."
Tian Bajiao nodded: "Okay."
"Also, don't tell her what I told you today. What if I misunderstood? I'm afraid she will get suspicious." Madam Wang is no longer as comfortable as before when getting along with Boss Shen.
Tian Bajiao nodded again: "Don't worry, I understand."
