Chapter 244 Buying Candy
"Which price range do you want to choose? We have everything from affordable to luxury."
She pressed the issue further, cautiously.
Faced with such a detailed question, the old man paused for a few seconds, and after quickly scanning Zhao Chunhua's face, he seemed to reveal a barely perceptible smile, and said in a teasing and slightly reproachful tone: "Little sister, don't my dress and temperament explain the problem? Do you think I am the kind of stingy person who only buys cheap things?"
Obviously, there is some kind of dissatisfaction or even contempt behind this sentence.
After realizing that she was indeed a bit rash and had touched a sensitive point, Zhao Chunhua immediately felt her cheeks getting hot.
In order to ease the awkward situation and complete the transaction as soon as possible, she quickly changed the topic and said, "I'm very sorry that I may not have understood your intention just now. I know that with your status and position, you must want the best! I'll just get you the most expensive one."
As he spoke, he deftly took down a beautifully packaged and most expensive brand of cigarettes from the top of the shelf and handed it to the customer.
After receiving the goods, the old man did not rush to leave. Instead, he coughed slightly as a hint. Then the smiling man next to him immediately understood and took the cigarette he had just received. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and handed Zhao Chunhua a 100-yuan RMB bill.
"Little girl, this is the change you need to give me."
Seeing this staggering amount of cash, Zhao Chunhua couldn't help but be shocked: although the profit of this business is not bad, it is really unexpected that the customer would pay such a large denomination of banknotes at one time.
"Grandpa, to be honest, a small shop like ours doesn't make much money in a day's business. It would be nice if you could exchange them for a few small-denomination banknotes..." In fact, it was because he had just experienced some unpleasant things a few days ago and was short of money, so he was really short of small bills to exchange.
Hearing this, the old man sitting opposite showed an extremely surprised expression: How could you run a business without preparing sufficient small bills for customers to use?
However, he did not get angry or blame the young man in front of him, but waited quietly for what happened next.
So, after thinking for a while, Zhao Chunhua mustered up the courage to try to propose a compromise plan, "Uncles, would you be willing to consider buying some other items? For example, drinks, snacks, etc.... This may help to make up the amount of change!"
The old man looked at his men, who shook their heads in embarrassment and said, "Master, I don't need to buy anything."
The expression on his subordinate's face revealed a hint of confusion and helplessness, and he was obviously trying his best to explain that he had no need to shop.
Zhao Chunhua didn't want to miss this generous customer, so she continued to recommend it enthusiastically: "Smoking is bad for your throat. We have a kind of throat lozenges in our store that are very effective and suitable for daily use. In addition, there is also a perfume specially designed to remove the smell of tobacco from your body. After using it, your body will be clean and refreshed. Do you want to try it, just in case?"
Zhao Chunhua's words were full of sincerity, as if every item was a treasure she had carefully selected before being willing to introduce to the other party.
After saying this, seeing that the two men were hesitant, Zhao Chunhua smiled and asked, "Grandpa, would you like to consider it? These things are really useful."
There was a bit of sincerity and anticipation in her smile, as if she was waiting for a positive answer to verify that everything she had done was worth it.
The always serious old man was impressed by her eloquence. He raised his eyebrows and said, "You really know how to do business!"
The recognition in the old man's words instantly filled the air with a warm and subtle atmosphere, making people feel as if there was more understanding and support between each other.
"Just being honest, I hope I didn't offend you."
She was actually a little worried that the products she recommended would not meet other people's high requirements, so her tone seemed both humble and respectful, for fear that her words and actions would cause any inconvenience or unhappiness to the master and servant in front of her.
Unexpectedly, the old man instructed his assistant: "Did you hear that? Take one of each item she ordered."
Although this sentence is simple and direct, it reveals recognition of Zhao Chunhua's professionalism and integrity.
The driver was stunned, looking at his owner in disbelief and questioning: "Master, how can the quality of the things sold in this small shop be guaranteed? How can you let me use them?"
His tone was full of confusion and worry. He was obviously very concerned about his master's health and quality of life and didn't want any accidents to happen.
The old man sighed and said, "I won't buy anything that has been used by a dead person!"
Then he fell into deep thought, thinking of his grandson who had suffered a year outside but just refused to come home, all kinds of feelings came to his mind.
I don’t know what he has been through outside this year!
Maybe all the daily necessities used by my grandson in this year were bought from the small shop. If even he can accept it, then what is there that is unacceptable for someone of my age?
These thoughts made him feel sad yet comforted, as if he could be closer to his grandson in this way.
When Zhao Chunhua saw that the old man really wanted to buy the candies and perfumes she introduced, she was stunned.
She originally thought that this was just an ordinary product recommendation and did not expect to arouse the old man's interest, but the scene before her obviously exceeded her expectations.
She has been using the perfume herself these days, spraying a little on her lapels or hair every day. The fresh and natural fragrance seems to be able to dispel the feeling of fatigue throughout the day, so she has certain confidence in the safety of this smell; as for the colorful and variously shaped candies, they are deeply loved by customers of all ages. Children and even the elderly can enjoy them without worry as a snack to kill time or replenish energy in their spare time.
The total value of these goods is only a dozen yuan, and I can use the more than 80 yuan I earned from selling fresh fruits a few days ago to give to the other party as part of the change he deserves.
Again
Adding the three hundred yuan that Feng Chunmei gave him a few days ago as an extra reward, and after deducting the money spent on buying new clothes and treating Muse Yi to taste authentic Lanzhou ramen, he currently has about two hundred yuan in his pocket.
After choosing his favorite brand of cigarettes and delicious candies, the old man did not leave the store immediately. Instead, he stayed where he was, as if he was about to light up the cigarette he had just picked up and slowly savor it.
Seeing this, Zhao Chunhua immediately realized that she needed to provide guests with a better service experience.
