Chapter 288 Hello, 1993



The entire four-story Pang Donglai store was packed to capacity, and even the area around Pang Donglai was filled with vendors.

Because of Pang Donglai's influence, the overall quantity in the surrounding area was directly increased.

Within just one month, a commercial street was formed in front of Pang Donglai.

"Candied hawthorn! Candied hawthorn! Two yuan a skewer!"

"Roasted sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes! Hot and fresh roasted sweet potatoes!"

"Mochi! Mochi! Anyone want some mochi?"

The evening wind in mid-December was like an ice scalpel, cutting into everyone's faces.

In front of Pang Donglai, many vendors, their faces flushed, paced back and forth, wrapped in thick scarves, trying to keep warm.

By 7 p.m., it was already completely dark in Makino City. The streetlights on both sides of the road illuminated the road, and people were still hurrying around in front of Pang Donglai.

Lin Yifeng shivered in the cold wind, then lifted the heavy curtain of Pang Donglai and went inside.

As soon as he entered the house, the heater at the door blew warm air in his face, which reduced the chill on Lin Yifeng's body by a bit.

Many people who had just finished shopping at the supermarket put on their coats and scarves at the door, marveling at how warm it was inside Pang Donglai.

Lin Yifeng spent a lot of money on this matter.

Back then, department stores basically didn't have central heating; people relied on stoves lit by individual households, or even just wearing extra layers of clothing.

Lin Yifeng spent a lot of money on heating system renovations to ensure the safety of Pang Donglai Supermarket.

Nowadays, the indoor temperature at Pangdonglai can be guaranteed to be at least 20 degrees Celsius, which is much better than that at the Makino City Market.

In other words, Lin Yifeng spent a lot of energy and money on this matter, and the market was almost on the verge of bankruptcy in the past month.

Those shop owners who were once out of reach of Xu Qingyi and Donglai are now begging and crying to join Pang Donglai.

However, given the current situation at Pang Donglai, there are no plans to reserve a place for them.

Some businesses reacted quickly enough and moved their shops to the area around Pang Donglai in advance.

Although it can't compare to the business inside Pang Donglai, it's at least better than waiting to die in the big market.

Lin Yifeng's purpose in coming to Pang Donglai this time was simply to inquire whether Xu Qingyi and the others were willing to go to Kyoto with him.

To Lin Yifeng's surprise, both Guo Fengsheng and Xu Qingyi refused this time.

The reason they gave was quite simple.

We cannot leave people behind in Makino City and Sanyo Castle.

Moreover, with New Year's Day approaching, both Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream are holding promotions, so we need to keep an eye on things.

Guo Fengsheng had to deal with Shanyang City, while Xu Qingyi had to handle matters in Muye City.

After the trip, the only person left to accompany Lin Yifeng was Gangzi, who hadn't had a rest for several months.

However, to Lin Yifeng's surprise, Donglai actually decided to go to Kyoto on his own initiative this time.

But his purpose in going to Kyoto was not to have a good time with Lin Yifeng.

The main purpose is to purchase some local specialties.
