Chapter 49 The bottom line cannot be lost
The two sisters were busy for a while, one recommending clothes to people and the other packing and collecting money. In a short time, they sold three coats and four pairs of jeans.
The two were happily counting their money when they heard the sound of a car at the door. Looking up, they saw the man who had first bought the jacket. This time, he was alone; the woman hadn't followed him.
"What do you want?" Gu Erhui felt that it was unnecessary to ask this question. There were only two types of clothes in their store, and the man was wearing both of them.
"I was passing by and came to take a look." Zhang Zijun walked over unsteadily, holding the car keys in his hand, as if he was very familiar with the two sisters of the Gu family.
He looks good, tall and thin, with big eyes and a high nose bridge. Even though he looks a bit nonchalant, he is not offensive.
"Why didn't you open the door a few days ago?" Zhang Zijun asked Gu Erhui with a wicked smile on his lips.
Gu Erhui frowned slightly. This person was too familiar.
"Going to buy some goods."
"Oh, I've been here several times, and the door is always closed." Zhang Zijun walked to the chair and sat down naturally. Gu Erhui didn't know what he meant, so she asked, "What's the matter?"
"It's okay. My name is Zhang Zijun. Let's be friends." Zhang Zijun raised his eyebrows and smiled, looking very dandy. "My car is right outside. How about taking you for a ride?"
Gu Erhui finally understood what this person was doing, but she hadn't expected people from the provincial capital to be so unscrupulous. If she remembered correctly, this person must be in a relationship.
Moreover, even if he doesn't have a girlfriend, isn't he afraid of being called a hooligan for openly asking out a girl he doesn't know?
If it were in the village, she would definitely give him the cold shoulder and say a few unpleasant words and drive him away, but this was in the provincial capital, and this man's identity was obviously not ordinary, so she had to endure the anger in her heart.
Her face darkened slightly and she said, "No, we are busy here."
As soon as she finished speaking, four young girls came in. Gu Erhui walked over to greet them. Zhang Zijun didn't care and sat on the chair playing with his car keys.
It’s fun to chase a girl who is hard to chase.
The four girls each bought a pair of jeans, and when they were leaving, they looked at the jackets with reluctance.
After Zhang Zijun saw the man leave, he stood up and said, "When are you free? I'll come to see you."
Gu Erhui was packing up the clothes that the girls had just tried on, and without even looking up, she said, "I'm busy at any time."
Zhang Zijun chuckled and turned to walk out, saying, "I'll come see you next time."
The car started, and the sound gradually faded away. Gu Yimin looked at Gu Erhui worriedly and said, "What if he comes again?"
"Just ignore him." Gu Erhui put the folded jeans away. "No matter how powerful he is, he can't do whatever he wants."
She didn't feel the sense of superiority that comes with being pursued; instead, she felt insulted. Zhang Zijun, who already had a girlfriend, still asked her out, and his attitude was so frivolous. What did he think of her?
Gu Yimin was still a little worried. They had just arrived in Lizhou and were not familiar with the surrounding environment yet, let alone the behavior of the children of officials here.
Think about Deng Zhiming. His uncle was just a small police officer in the police station. The Deng family usually did things with their chins held high. But Zhang Zijun always drove when he went out, so it was obvious that his identity must be extraordinary.
"Do you want to talk to our dad?" Gu Yimin asked.
"Not for now. We'll deal with it if he does something out of line in the future." Gu Erhui didn't want to make Gu Jianguo worry.
Gu Jianguo and Han Deyi had barely slept for three or four days, and this time they slept until noon the next day. When they came downstairs, several people were trying on flatbreads in the store, and the two Gu sisters and Tian Huiying were busy.
Seeing they couldn't help much, the two of them went to a nearby bathhouse to take a bath. When they came back, the guests in the room had already left. Tian Huiying went upstairs to cook, while Gu Yimin and her sister packed up the clothes that the guests had tried on.
Seeing them come back, Gu Erhui said, "Dad, why don't we set up a separate area for people to try on clothes." Now it's easy for customers to try on coats, they just take off their coats and try them on, but it's not convenient to try on pants.
Gu Jianguo and Han Deyi looked around the room and finally decided to put a curtain in the northeast corner. As they were discussing how to set up this small compartment, several uniformed men arrived.
Gu Jianguo and Han Deyi immediately went to meet them.
"From the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, who is the boss?" asked a young man in his twenties.
"Both of us." Gu Jianguo said. Han Deyi took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to several people, but no one took it.
"Let me take out your business license and have a look."
Gu Jianguo and Han Deyi were both a little confused. They had been so busy buying and selling goods that they had forgotten about the business license. They quickly explained with a smile and promised to get it done right away.
"Then close the door first and get the business license before you start operating."
Gu Jianguo and Han Deyi were both a bit embarrassed. Closing the shop for a day would mean losing a day's worth of business. But they also knew it was a normal request. Just as they were about to agree to close the shop, they heard the sound of a car at the door. Everyone turned to see Zhang Zijun getting out and approaching.
"What's going on?"
The people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau looked at his car and then at him. A young man whispered a few words in the ear of the leader-like person. The leader nodded expressionlessly, and then told him that Gu Jianguo and his team did not have a business license.
After hearing this, Zhang Zijun looked at Gu Erhui with a smile and said, "That's not necessary."
"Let's close the shop first and apply for a business license." Gu Erhui interrupted Zhang Zijun, "We'll open again after we get the license."
Zhang Zijun put away the smile on his face and squinted at Gu Erhui, who was looking at him indifferently. He tutted and laughed again, "Consider me meddling in your business."
After saying that, he wandered off. The people from the Industry and Commerce Bureau looked at each other, wondering what was going on with this young master. However, they didn't bother Gu Jianguo and the others anymore. They just told them to go get their business licenses quickly and left.
Gu Erhui walked to the door and closed it. Gu Yimin had already told Gu Jianguo about Zhang Zijun's visit to Gu Erhui. After hearing this, Gu Jianguo clenched his fist and said, "Erhui did the right thing. The worst that can happen is that she will earn less money for a few days."
As he said this, he looked at Han Deyi. After all, the business was not his alone.
"That's how it should be," Han Deyi said immediately. "We'll go get the license this afternoon, and then treat Qiu Weiguang to dinner tonight."
They have to know where Zhang Zijun came from.
Gu Yimin held Gu Erhui's hand to comfort her. Gu Erhui smiled at her and said, "I'm fine. We will fight against any enemy with our own strength and block any flood with our own earth."
Power and money are the goals pursued by almost everyone, but in the process of pursuing them, the bottom line of personality cannot be lost.
