On the opening day, Li Yun took his family to the county town to help.
Yesterday, Li Yun brought four waiters, Haotian, Qingyang, Baihu, and a cook with him.
The shopkeeper this time is Haotian, and the security is provided by Qingyang and Baihu who have a guard team. Guxing is the foreman of the waiters, who is mainly responsible for managing the sales and replenishment of the store.
When they arrived at the store, Haotian and Guxing came out to greet Li Yun.
"Master, everything is ready. Please check it." Guxing said to Li Yun.
"Okay, I'll go take a look." Li Yun took the lead and took his family into the fruit and vegetable store.
After checking, nothing was found and everything was normal.
The fruit and vegetable store is a combination of the fruit store and vegetable store in the previous life, and the shelves are designed in the same way as in the previous life.
"Haotian, when the time comes, open the door and set off firecrackers. You go up and make a speech, and then unveil the plaque." Li Yun said to Haotian.
"Yes, master." Haotian said.
When the time came, Haotian asked someone to open the door, and Qingyang took the firecrackers and started lighting them.
“Snap, snap, snap…”
The firecrackers kept going off.
Li Yun brought his family out to watch the fun, and Erbao and Sanbao clapped and shouted happily.
The people in front of the door were also talking about it, wanting to see what kind of store was so busy.
"Mom, it's so lively. Sanbao is very happy today." Sanbao clapped her hands and said happily to Li Yun. She had a happy smile on her face that she couldn't hide.
"As long as Sanbao is happy." Li Yun looked at Sanbao's smiling face and started smiling too. It turns out that smiles are contagious.
As soon as the sound of firecrackers stopped, Haotian went up to speak: "Ladies and gentlemen, ladies, young masters, young ladies, brothers and sisters, come and take a look. Today is the grand opening of our fruit and vegetable store. Anyone who comes into our store and spends one or two taels or more will receive a coupon worth ten coins; anyone who spends ten or more taels or more will receive a coupon worth one tael; anyone who spends one hundred taels or more will receive a coupon worth ten taels; anyone who spends one thousand taels or more will receive a coupon worth one hundred taels; anyone who spends ten thousand taels or more will not only receive a coupon worth one thousand taels, but will also become a super member of our store. During our promotion period, all products will be 20% off. Our store has a three-day discount."
As soon as Haotian finished speaking, the common people in front of the store and the managers and shopkeepers of the wealthy families began to talk in low voices.
When Li Yun brought the waiter and Haotian to the store, he arranged for Jinshan to take people to distribute flyers in the county town, so everyone in Qingshan County knew that the fruit and vegetable store was opening today, and the masters and ladies sent their stewards and shopkeepers to come and see the situation.
"Tell me, who is the owner of this fruit and vegetable store?
Is there something wrong with his brain?
Shouldn't we bring back ten thousand taels of vegetables and fruit by cart?"
"Yeah! Why are fruits and vegetables so expensive?"
"Let's go in and see what kind of fruits and vegetables they are?"
The people were discussing in low voices.
The managers and shopkeepers of the wealthy families entered the shops first, and the common people behind them followed them into the fruit and vegetable shops with the intention of taking a look.
Soon, the common people, managers, and shopkeepers were slapped in the face, making them feel hot.
When they saw the fruits and vegetables on display in the store, they were shocked. Many of them were new to them. There were tribute grapes, and their color was very good, perhaps even better than the tribute grapes.
After the manager and shopkeeper of the wealthy family realized what was happening, they started scrambling to grab the grapes.
The people who came in later were stunned. They didn't understand why the managers and shopkeepers were possessed by evil spirits and why they all tried to grab the same fruit.
At this time, Lone Star came over to stop them from looting, which would easily destroy the grapes.
The master said that this fruit is called grapes, which is only found in foreign countries and is a tribute to the emperor, in very small quantities.
"Gentlemen, there is no need to rush. There are still plenty, enough for everyone to buy. It's better to take a look at the price before taking any." Guxing pointed to the price tag under the basket and said to the manager and the shopkeeper.
The manager and the shopkeeper looked down at the price on the label and were so frightened that they thought they had seen it wrong.
Oh my god! They actually want one hundred taels per catty. I almost lost face. Fortunately, someone reminded me. Otherwise, if I didn’t have the silver to pay the bill, I would have lost face for the master and I wouldn’t know how to die.
"This is too expensive. It's just fruit. How can it be sold for one hundred taels per catty? The boss is definitely black-hearted." said one of the managers.
"Yes, the boss is a profiteer. He charges one hundred taels for a pound of fruit. One hundred taels can buy a lot of fruit." Another manager said.
When the people who came in later heard the price, they gasped in shock.
One hundred taels per pound of fruit. How can this fruit be more expensive than gold? The boss is definitely unscrupulous.
The people thought silently in their hearts that they had a very bad impression of this boss.
"My two lords, please do not exaggerate. This fruit is called grapes. We do not have them in the Great Jin Dynasty. They are only found in the Western Regions. These grapes are tributes from the emperor of the Western Regions to Your Majesty.
My master is popular and did a great favor for a wealthy businessman in the Western Regions. To repay him, he gifted her five grapevines. After a year of careful cultivation, they're only now bearing grapes. Do you think they're worth the price?" Gu Xing repeated exactly what Li Yun had said to her.
The two managers originally planned to lead the people to make a fuss and force the boss to lower the price. The price was too high and they could not buy many grapes.
The rest of the stewards said nothing. They picked some beautiful grapes and prepared to pay for them.
When the people heard that it was a tribute and only the emperor had eaten it, they also wanted to buy some to try. However, they felt their wallets and found they were short of money, so they had to give up the idea.
Lone Star then said, “My dear lords, ladies, young masters and young ladies, brothers and sisters, each fruit basket has a price, please take a close look at the price.
There is also a fruit called grape, but it is a different variety and tastes almost the same.
There is also the red, round one called tomato, which was not available in the Jin Dynasty. It is also a foreign fruit.
This kind of tomato is only available in Xiliang Kingdom, and there is also that big, long fruit called Black Beauty Watermelon, which is also only available in Xiliang Kingdom... "Gu Xing pointed at the fruits on the basket and their prices one by one and introduced them to everyone.
"There are a lot of vegetables on the shelves over there. Those vegetables were not available in the Jin Dynasty. They have high nutritional value." Guxing pointed at the vegetables and spoke to the people one by one.
The steward, the shopkeeper and the common people began to pick fruits and vegetables according to what Guxing said.
Soon the first group of people picked out fruits and vegetables and went to pay, and those who met the requirements were given corresponding coupons.
When the manager wanted to cause trouble, Li Yun wanted to go out and explain.
I saw Lone Star come out to explain and introduce all the fruits and vegetables in the store.
Li Yun was very satisfied with Gu Xing's performance and felt relieved to hand over the fruit and vegetable store to her.
