Chapter 289: Cleaned Out



Soap, grab it!

Towels, grab!

Drinks, you have to grab them!

Knives, cutting boards, bowls and dishes, chopsticks, candlesticks, candles, flashlights, dry batteries, lighters...

No matter how much these things cost, as long as I feel they can be used, I put them all in the shopping cart.

Some people were originally acting like they were from wealthy families, but when they saw someone taking away the goods in front of them, all the etiquette and rules were instantly thrown out the window.

What are the etiquette rules?

What is the inside and the outside?

Is it important to get benefits?

Now, don’t worry about the mistress of an official family or the wives of noble families.

As long as there is something good that he can see, he will grab it into his arms.

The purpose is to collect one hundred taels of silver so that they can exchange it for lottery tickets as soon as possible.

They don't even consider that kitchen utensils like knives and cutting boards may just be cheaper for the cook at home.

As long as you have collected one hundred taels, no matter how much more it is, you can push the shopping cart and run to the checkout channel.

Some mistresses who are usually dignified and elegant are even faster than those young ladies.

This situation stunned the eunuchs and maids who were responsible for maintaining order.

Especially those who couldn't win the competition would occasionally say one or two obscene words, which would leave them stunned.

In response to this, Qinglan and several other leading maids remained very calm.

For them, these situations are just minor incidents.

After all, they have seen the short video on Douyin of old men and women squeezing into the supermarket door before dawn more than once.

"What?"

"How can there be only ninety-nine taels?"

"I just calculated it to be over a hundred taels, how come it's so much less in the blink of an eye?"

"wrong."

"You must have miscalculated."

"These things are obviously worth more than a hundred taels."

"Hurry up, hurry up, I'll give you a hundred taels of silver. I don't want you to give me a 10% discount. Just give me eleven lottery tickets."

"thing?"

"I don't want the things anymore."

"That's all I need now. Just give me the raffle ticket."

Some people may have dropped something while running, and when they saw that the amount did not match while queuing, they became emotional and almost got into a fight with the cashier.

After all, if you go back to choose the products, you have to queue up again.

What if the grand prize is taken away by someone? Wouldn’t I have no place to cry?

Spending an extra ten taels of silver to buy a lottery ticket is not a loss no matter how you look at it.

For customers, they always get angry if they are overpaid and happy if they are underpaid.

But today at the Little Rhino Supermarket, everything was turned upside down.

Even if you just shortchange them by a penny, they will argue with you at the top of their lungs as if they have suffered a great loss.

That’s not all.

As relatives of officials, these ladies and mistresses all have very strict requirements on the quality of goods.

It is common to be picky when buying things on weekdays.

Although they will not lose money from the merchants, some of them are even picky about the quality.

But today in the Little Rhino Supermarket, even if the packaging of the goods is squeezed and deformed, or the goods are bumped, they will never say a bad word. Instead, they will urgently urge the cashier to check out quickly.

Such a scene also left the cashiers stunned.

Isn’t it said that good customers are difficult to deal with?

Didn’t we agree to be fully prepared to deal with the situation?

How come when we really face it, it is completely different from what the previous old managers taught us?

Could it be that those old shopkeepers deliberately made the problem sound more serious so that they and others would be mentally prepared?

But isn’t this difference a bit too big?

It's so easy to give money, but if you collect it a little slowly, you will be scolded.

In fact, not to mention the cashiers, even the old accountants who were invited were seeing this kind of money collecting scene for the first time.

So scary!

So shocking!

Too many!

It’s impossible to collect it in time. It’s impossible to collect it at all.

Li Er and a group of famous officials of the Zhenguan period walked in at some point.

They stood at a distance and watched the busy scene at the cashier counter.

At this moment, not to mention Cheng Yaojin and others, even Li Er, who thought he was knowledgeable, had his eyes wide open.

He knew how attractive the things sold in Little Rhino Supermarket were to this era.

But he was also worried whether the appearance of a supermarket with clearly marked prices would be accepted by the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Although he didn't know much about business, he knew that no matter what he did, he had to consider the actual situation.

Zhou Yu runs a supermarket in Datang, which is obviously not very down-to-earth.

Even if business is bad, it is completely understandable.

After all, although the things sold in supermarkets are good, they are not necessities of life for the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Even if there was no Little Rhino Supermarket, the people's livelihood in Datang would not be affected at all.

certainly.

These are the conclusions he came to based on his analysis of reality.

But he overlooked the most important point, which is that what the Tang Dynasty could provide was actually just the necessities of life.

Take salt for example.

There is no white salt in the Tang Dynasty now, so the needs of the noble families and officials are the best quality green salt.

But if there are better white salt options, the best quality green salt will be discarded.

The same principle applies not only to salt, but also to other materials.

No matter what dynasty, what limits the desires of wealthy people can only be the limitations of the times, not the desires themselves.

Moreover, comparison is a common phenomenon in society with a complex social and psychological background.

These timeless and space-defining items sold in Little Rhino Supermarket are the core that triggers comparisons.

It is precisely because of this that the current excitement is both within Li Er's expectations and beyond his expectations.

Looking at the people who kept handing lottery tickets to Zhou Yu, Li Er, who had been a little complacent about having been to the modern world, gradually calmed down.

The gap between the Tang Dynasty and the modern times is not just about time and space, but also about thoughts, culture, and even human nature.

certainly.

Li Er's emotion and awakening had no effect on Zhou Yu, who was surrounded by the crowd, and the cashiers who had become numb.

There are still special prizes and first prizes that have not been drawn.

As some people paid their bills and rushed to the lottery area, the remaining people began to lose their minds.

They could clearly see the long queue at the lottery area.

If we delay any further, even if we can get the lottery ticket, the grand prize will probably have been taken away by someone else.

As a result, the few remaining goods were quickly sold out.

Those who failed to grab the goods immediately stopped working.
