Chapter 29: Gift Vouchers for In-Store Purchases
If the system hadn't forbidden her from using things she took out of her spatial storage, would she have needed to ask someone to get the drum?
This system is incredibly cunning; it requires a complete system of buying and selling, supplying goods, and collecting payments to function.
If she takes goods directly from the space without going through the supply chain and uses them, that's cheating.
In other words, she can't take it out and use it directly.
But that's fine too, at least you won't get something for nothing.
“I will definitely ask my master about it later.” The steward walked over to the display case and handed Su Jingge a drum that was even better than the one before. “Take this drum and give it to Assistant Manager Su. You have done so many good things for the people and for the county. In my heart, you are the county magistrate.”
Su Jingge pushed the drum: "No, this drum is very valuable, how can I take someone else's things?" As she spoke, she took out some silver from her pocket, "How much silver is it? I must give it to you."
"No, no, deduct the cost of the drum from my wages." The foreman placed the drum back into the person's hands.
Unable to refuse, Su Jingge gave him five vouchers: "This is actually my real intention in buying the drum. These vouchers can be used as cash to repair the roof or walls of the master's house. You must accept them; it's a way of supporting my work."
The steward looked at the seal on it; it was red and had the logo of a restaurant. The openwork design was beautiful, and he was filled with joy and surprise.
"Wow, what an exquisite consumer circle! The handwriting is so vigorous and powerful; perhaps it was written by that legendary general?"
"This is the first time I've heard that this circle can be used as money. No wonder she's the daughter of Elder Su. Miss Su is truly intelligent and has extraordinary ideas. I admire her from the bottom of my heart. She's simply a remarkable woman!"
"Then I will accept it on behalf of my master."
The junior steward was excited and talked a lot.
Su Jingge opened her mouth slightly as she watched the person carefully fold the coupon and put it into their bosom, then patted it down.
She meant that it wasn't a circle, it was a coupon.
But I don't know how to explain the word 'coupon'.
Oh well, whatever, coupons or whatever.
In short, as long as you understand the meaning, that's fine.
"Alright, then I'll be going now," Su Jingge said.
The junior manager escorted him to the door, saying, "Thank you, Assistant Manager Su. Please take care."
They brought back a small drum, and Ying Xiaohu put it around his neck and started banging it.
The drumbeats were good, clean, and crisp.
An echo is fine too.
Su Jingge looked at the group and said, "Then let's do it this way. Do it first thing tomorrow morning."
Riding a swift horse in the spring breeze, one can admire all the flowers and wine in a single day.
Ying Xiaohu beats the drum, and the clear moon sprinkles flowers.
"Fellow villagers, folks, spend ten coins in the store and you'll receive a voucher. You can use it to offset any house or wall repairs. The more you use, the less you'll have to pay for the repairs. In the end, you might even get your roof repaired for free!"
Don't miss it!
After Ying Xiaohu finished shouting, Qingyue followed.
The two worked together quite well.
When the people heard that coupons could be used to pay money, they thought it was a novel thing.
I've never seen it before.
In no time, people gathered around.
"What does that mean? You spend ten coins to enter the store, and you get a ring. The more rings you have, the more silver you get as a discount. In the end, you can get your roof repaired for free?"
This move instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the people.
“That’s right, eating out is like saving money for house repairs,” Su Jingge said.
"That's great! We can pay for the house repairs with the meals. We can eat and get the house repaired at the same time."
"Let's go in and eat. It doesn't matter where we eat, right?"
In an instant, the people flocked into the restaurant.
The once quiet restaurant was revitalized.
The large ladle in the kitchen was flying as it stir-fried the food.
Ying Xiaohu ran so fast that his feet seemed to be greased.
Shuang silently wiped the table and picked up the bowls and chopsticks.
Xiao Linyuan's fingers moved rapidly across the abacus.
The private rooms on the second floor of Qingyue greeted guests.
Su Jingge, meanwhile, hummed a tune leisurely at the front desk.
Oh, I'll make money, then I'll buy a car.
I'm going to lead my silly henchmen to find my brother.
A little bit mischievous.
He's kind of handsome.
She's sexy, charming, and adorable.
I will work hard, I will be proud.
I will lead the people to victory!
Xiao Linyuan couldn't suppress the smile on his lips as he listened.
Su Jingge spun the copper coin like a top, raising an eyebrow as she looked at the restaurant not far away.
At the same time, Zhao Liu stood with his hands on his hips watching everyone run towards Yunque Tower, which made him so angry that his teeth itched.
Damn it!
Su Jingge, are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?
You're stealing my business from Shanggu Zhai, and now you're stealing my market share.
He took a big bite of the scallion, as if to say, "Are you trying to kill me?"
"Sixth Brother, where did we go wrong?" the younger brother beside him asked, full of doubt.
"Where did you lose? Did you see that drum? You lost because of the details. Read more books, don't you know that details determine success or failure? Do you know what you should be doing now?"
The younger brother looked like he understood: "I'll go and snatch that drum right now."
"..." Zhao Liu glared at him. "Robbing is illegal, blatant robbery is illegal! Go, rob it tonight."
The younger brother was taken aback at first, then gave a thumbs up: "Sixth Brother is really smart."
The restaurant owner standing nearby was dumbfounded. So, robbing at night isn't illegal?
The two men stormed off in anger.
The shopkeeper said, "What the hell does this have to do with drums?"
"Why!"
The other bosses stared at each other, unanimously agreeing that they had followed the wrong person and chosen the wrong side.
What a terrible thing!
...
However, the number of customers in the restaurant did not decrease, but rather increased.
Some people said that the ten coins were still too expensive for ordinary people, and that a single coupon wouldn't cover much of the cost of repairing a house, so they started shaking their heads.
"We can't afford those ten coins, so we won't fix the roof..."
The people's actions were indeed reasonable, after all, ten coins was a considerable sum for poor families.
Su Jingge watched as the people shook their heads and left sadly.
Everyone's worries are her worries.
She continued, “Fellow citizens, please wait. I know that many families do not have jobs and have little land, so they do not have a sustainable source of income. How about this, I will find you a way to make a living?”
Upon hearing this, many people stopped in their tracks.
"Making a living? There don't seem to be many ways to make a living in this city. How do you all find work?"
"Sigh~ Even if Assistant Manager Su were to approach us, I'm afraid we still couldn't do it."
"Yes, Assistant Manager Su supplies goods to merchants, so there's no need for so many people to move the goods. We're uneducated and illiterate, so what company would hire us?"
An older man raised his voice and said, "The business that Assistant Manager Su found for us is definitely suitable for us. You've all been too lazy to make a living, haven't you? You haven't even said what kind of work it is, and you're all saying you can't do it. You're all useless." The older man turned around and looked at Su Jingge with anticipation, "May I ask what kind of work Assistant Manager Su is?"
Su Jingge felt that although the material problem had been solved now, if her subordinates were to produce it in the future, they would definitely need manpower.
Moreover, now that the roof has been repaired, the next step is to repair the ground, which requires small cement pieces. So, we'll need manpower to mix the mud, right?
Why not take advantage of the skilled craftsmen we've accumulated this time?
"How about this, if you want to work, you can register with me, and I will notify you when there are suitable jobs available."
The man nodded: "That's good. I believe that Assistant Manager Su will definitely lead everyone to prosperity and will also govern Yuxiang County well, restoring it to its former glory. Please be patient."
