Ling Tianji was filled with anger and scolded him:
"What are you doing?! You want to go and question that little girl? Create another mess?! Just figure out where we are? This is Xindu! If you still want to participate in this trade fair, stay here honestly. If not, close the shop and get out!"
Although Dingnan and his companions looked worried, they had calmed down a lot.
Jiao Qing's husband also stopped.
If Dingnan is kicked out of the trade fair at this time, its reputation will become even worse.
Ling Tianji left in anger, and then asked Zhuo Ercheng to find out the culprit of this incident as soon as possible and punish him severely to serve as a warning to others, otherwise everyone who came to the meeting would dare to run wild and create chaos on the territory of Xindu!
Zhuo Ercheng's eyes flickered.
The culprit
The trade fair officially opened at ten o'clock in the morning, and the people of Xindu who had heard the news had already lined up in a long queue at the door.
The people of Xindu are very enthusiastic about the annual trade fair because they can buy rare items from various bases at the fair. Even if they are just there to join in the fun and not buy anything, they still come to take a look.
There was an inconspicuous family of three in the team.
The hostess was holding her son in one hand and talking on the phone with the other, her tone not very good:
"I've seen the photos of Dongyang School. It's really good. I have no objection to your daughter Ruirui staying in Dongyang to study, but you've repeatedly persuaded me to send Ruirui's cousin to Dongyang as well. Isn't that a bit...?"
There's something wrong.
But she remembered that the person on the other end of the phone was her sister. Although a thought called Taoyang entered her mind, she was still her biological sister, so she couldn't say anything too harsh, so she held back.
"Sister! I'm serious! While Dongyang schools aren't overcrowded yet, you should apply for housing in Taoyang as soon as possible so your cousin Ruirui can start school as soon as possible. Although Xindu is more prosperous in all aspects, it's still not as safe as Taoyang. Moreover, the living standard in Taoyang is definitely not worse than yours in Xindu, and it may even be better—"
Before she could finish, the hostess hung up the phone.
The son raised his head and asked arrogantly, "My aunt again?"
The hostess frowned and nodded, looking like she had a headache:
"Your aunt and her family are possessed. They keep mentioning Taoyang every three sentences when talking to me. I'm starting to wonder if Taoyang is some kind of brainwashing cult."
The son nodded vigorously. "Li Ruili called me and said the same thing. She also said that she had a classmate named Shi Ziyue who knew the boss of Taoyang. The boss of Taoyang was only a few years older than us and was very capable."
The hostess's head started buzzing when she heard this.
Teenage boss?
Either Li Ruili was lying and bragging, or Tao Yang was even more outrageous than she imagined.
She couldn't help but say, "Taotao, although Ruirui is your cousin and you two had a good relationship when you were little, she's not in a clear mind now. You should call her less often and don't let her lead you astray."
The son raised his chin. "I thought she was joking. She even said that you can buy a meat and vegetable bento downstairs at their school, and the most expensive one is only 60 federal coins. How is that possible? We don't have such vending machines in Xindu, so how could there be one in Dongyang? And even if there were, they couldn't be sold so cheaply. The merchants wouldn't make any money, and this isn't charity."
The hostess felt relieved and pleased after hearing this, thinking that her son was smart and clear-headed.
She patted her son's shoulder and said, "Alright, alright. Mommy believes in you. We're about to enter the trade fair. There will be a lot of people there, so you have to follow Mommy and Daddy closely."
The family followed the crowd and finally passed the checkpoint and entered the trading floor.
As soon as the three of them came in, they saw a stream of people rushing in a certain direction.
The hostess originally wanted to visit each store in order, but out of curiosity, she stopped a passerby and asked:
"Why is everyone going over there?"
Passersby hurriedly shouted, "Don't bother looking at the other shops. They're pretty much the same as last year, nothing interesting. There's a new one called Taoyang at this year's fair. I heard they sell a lot of things, including food and drinks, fresh fruit, iced drinks, and prepared food lunches. Oh, you'll find out when you get there. Hurry and line up! Quantities are limited!"
Passersby hurried away.
The hostess turned to her husband and asked, "Who was the new guy? What's his name?"
Her husband also looked confused and said uncertainly: "Taoyang?"
The hostess looked at her son with a skeptical look on her face.
Taotao scratched his head and said, "I also heard Taoyang."
The hostess cried out, "This is a ghost! We must have been listening to my sister rambling about Taoyang for too long lately, and our ears must be hallucinating."
Her husband pulled her along and said, "Let's go and have a look. Maybe it's a duplicate name."
The family followed the crowd and found that the line was so long that they couldn't see what Taoyang's shops looked like at all.
The hostess sighed, "This is too exaggerated."
Taotao suddenly shouted at this time: "Mom! Mom! Look at the lunch boxes they are holding!"
The couple looked in the direction their son pointed and saw someone coming out of the Taoyang shop. He was carrying a large bag in one hand and three stacked lunch boxes in the other.
Taotao's voice changed: "The lunch box photo that Li Ruili sent me looks exactly like this!"
The hostess reached out to stop the passerby carrying the bento and said, "Excuse me...can you show me what the dish is?"
Passersby generously showed it to them:
"Chicken with mushrooms, assorted beef, stir-fried pork with beans."
Taotao was dumbfounded: "What Li Ruili said is true!"
The couple were also stunned.
The convenience store business was better than Su Tao had imagined.
As a result, the goods that filled their shelves in the morning were all sold out before three in the afternoon.
There was a long queue outside the door.
The people who had been queuing for an entire afternoon were very upset when they heard that the food was sold out. In the end, Ma Dapao was willing to save his face and apologize to appease them, saying that the store would remain open for the next two days. Only then did he appease the customers behind him.
Qian Rongrong calculated the entire day's sales in less than half an hour after closing, which amounted to 4.8 million. In addition, several wealthy customers paid their membership fees on the spot after learning that they could order supplies on the official website.
In addition, 36 crystal cores were harvested.
Ma Dapao looked at the account book and clicked his tongue: "Looking at the prices in Taoyang and Panliushan now, you are simply doing charity, boss."
Everyone nodded.
In fact, if the boss wants to make money quickly, he can just raise the prices and rents in Taoyang, and there will definitely be people who will pay for it.
If he doesn't do this, it can only mean that the boss doesn't want to cheat his own people and really wants to build Taoyang well so that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment.
After a hard day's work, a few people gathered together to enjoy the air conditioning and eat instant noodles.
Minister Xu walked into the store and saw the empty shelves and people wolfing down their food. He couldn't help but laugh:
"Business is booming."
Su Tao put down the instant noodles and called him: "Minister Xu, have you eaten yet? Come with us."
Ma Dapao was very perceptive. He immediately dragged a chair over and took out instant noodles.
Xu Chang didn't bother to be polite with them. He squeezed in with everyone and sat down. He put the communicator on the edge of the table and chatted with Su Tao while waiting for instant noodles.
Su Tao just glanced casually and suddenly found that the screen saver of Minister Xu's communicator was a simple drawing with sloppy lines.
It can be vaguely seen that there are rabbits, red hats, and playing cards in the painting.
