Don't cry
Xu Zhixun sent people to place ten items on the shelves and told Long Qian, Manager Xiao, and others about the names and uses of the items.
Beside Manager Xiao were two employees from Xiao's Grocery Store.
In addition, Xu Zhixun also sent three maids to work as sales clerks at Fairy Supermarket.
Yesterday, Xu Zhixun had the robot print labels for ten products and also prepared instruction manuals for those ten products.
The labels and instructions were written in traditional Chinese characters, which are from China.
In this way, even ancient people like Shopkeeper Xiao could understand product labels and instructions.
Xu Zhixun did not bring a large number of modern goods at once because she was afraid that Manager Xiao would not be familiar with them.
Therefore, she plans to add ten new products every day to give Manager Xiao and the staff time to memorize the various products and then promote them to customers.
In addition, all the items in Fairy Supermarket are extremely expensive—
A lighter costs 5 taels of silver, instant noodles cost 5 taels of silver, toilet water costs 16 taels of silver, sanitary napkins cost 10 taels of silver...
However, despite the high prices of goods in Fairy Supermarket, the people considered it normal.
Everyone felt that it was perfectly normal for the celestial items in Heaven to be so expensive.
Immortal-grade items are meant to be sold to the wealthy, not to ordinary people!
Immediately afterwards, Xu Zhixun said to Manager Xiao, "Manager Xiao, please be careful not to let anyone steal the goods."
"Furthermore, all food is tested for poison by the waiters using silver needles, free of charge."
"We are not responsible for any goods after they leave Fairy Supermarket."
"If someone gets food poisoning from eating food from the supermarket, that has nothing to do with us!"
After speaking, Xu Zhixun handed a pre-printed sheet of white paper to Manager Xiao.
On the white paper, a few lines of text were written:
"All food must be tested for poison on the spot. We are not responsible for any products once they leave the store."
"We do not offer credit. Thank you for your understanding!"
Manager Xiao took the white paper and praised it:
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, you've thought of everything so thoroughly. I was just worried that someone would say the food in the supermarket is poisonous, and I was also worried that someone would buy on credit."
Xu Zhixun smiled slightly: "Fairy Supermarket, no credit, cash on delivery is a must."
Shopkeeper Xiao smiled broadly: "Yes, yes, you're absolutely right!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged woman asked impatiently:
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, when can we go shopping?"
Xu Zhixun thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait a minute. Since Fairy Supermarket is opening today, we should naturally celebrate."
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, I have already bought firecrackers and hired a lion dance troupe," Shopkeeper Xiao said respectfully.
"Should we set off firecrackers and then have the lion dance troupe perform?"
Xu Zhixun was both surprised and delighted: "Alright then, let's set off firecrackers and have a lion dance!"
So, everyone went to the outside of Fairy Supermarket.
Shopkeeper Xiao announced to the people that the Fairy Supermarket was officially open for business today, and everyone was welcome to come and buy celestial products from the Heavenly Court.
Next, the two guys started setting off firecrackers.
The people were overjoyed, clapping and discussing among themselves.
The firecrackers were finished in no time.
The lion dance troupe stepped forward and began their lion dance.
Amidst cheerful music, the people beamed with joy as they came to watch the spectacle.
The lion dance ended half an hour later.
Xu Zhixun thought for a moment and then asked the shop assistant to move an eight-immortal table to the entrance of Fairy Supermarket.
Seeing this, everyone was very curious, wondering what Xu Zhixun was going to do.
"Zhi Xun, why did you bring out a table?" Long Qian was also confused.
Xu Zhixun said with a smile, "Today is the opening of Fairy Supermarket, and I'm going to give away some money to everyone, so I'll sprinkle some copper coins on everyone."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers all cheered:
"Thank you, Mysterious Lady of the Nine Heavens! May the Mysterious Lady of the Nine Heavens have good fortune and all your wishes fulfilled!"
Xu Zhixun smiled and said, "Thank you everyone for coming!"
After saying that, she used her mind to summon a mahogany money box and placed it on the table.
This money box is about the size of an English book.
The money box was filled with copper coins from the Dragon Kingdom.
Those copper coins were the money that Xu Zhixun's soldiers paid her when they bought compressed biscuits back in the Xia Kingdom.
Xu Zhixun opened the money box and then said to the people:
"Everyone, I'm about to scatter copper coins! Get ready to grab them!"
"Whoever grabs the copper coin keeps it!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was incredibly excited, staring intently at Xu Zhixun:
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, we are ready! Please scatter the copper coins!"
So, Xu Zhixun grabbed a handful of copper coins and scattered them into the crowd!
"Ahhhhhh!" Everyone was overjoyed and frantically picked up the copper coins.
Long Qian burst out laughing: "Zhi Xun, it seems you're not only a celestial maiden, but also everyone's lucky charm!"
Xu Zhixun said with a grin, "I'm just hoping for good luck with the opening of Fairy Supermarket!"
After saying that, she picked up the copper coins again and continued to scatter them.
The crowd beamed with joy and continued to scramble for the copper coins.
Xu Zhixun kept scattering copper coins until all the copper coins in the money box were gone.
Many of the people present found some copper coins, more or less.
Therefore, everyone was all smiles.
"Fellow villagers, today's coin-scattering activity is over!" Xu Zhixun announced loudly.
"When Fairy Supermarket opens a branch, I will also scatter copper coins."
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, when are you going to open a branch?" a young man asked impatiently.
Xu Zhixun thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "It should be within a month!"
"I plan to open a total of ten Fairy Supermarkets in Beijing."
After saying that, Xu Zhixun used her mind to put the money box back into her personal space.
Everyone was shocked and whispered among themselves after seeing Xu Zhixun's "magic".
Xu Zhixun smiled and said to everyone, "Everyone, now you can enter the Fairy Supermarket and buy whatever you want!"
Upon hearing this, everyone rushed into the supermarket.
In an instant, Manager Xiao and his five sales clerks were all extremely busy.
They continuously introduced the names and uses of ten modern products to their customers.
Seeing this, Xu Zhixun was very happy and said to Long Qian:
"Longqian, let's go! Let's go see that uncle who sold candied hawthorns yesterday, and see if he has saved enough money for his wife's medical treatment?"
Long Qian smiled slightly: "Okay."
So, Xu Zhixun, Long Qian, and the others walked together toward the candied hawthorn stall not far away.
——————————————
At dusk, Xu Zhixun arrived at the stall selling candied hawthorns.
She originally thought the shop owner must have sold a lot of candied hawthorns.
To her surprise, she found that the candied hawthorns on the stall were all gone, and the owner, with a bruised and swollen face, was sitting on the ground crying.
A handsome scholar, also bruised and battered, was comforting his boss.
"Dad, don't cry, let's find another place to sell candied hawthorns!"
The shop owner was heartbroken, tears streaming down his face: "Our money has all been stolen, and we have no money left to buy hawthorns and rock sugar!"
Seeing this, Xu Zhixun's heart tightened, and she quickly stepped forward:
"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Upon seeing Xu Zhixun, the boss immediately burst into tears:
"Girl, I'm so sorry! I used the method you taught me yesterday to make all sorts of candied hawthorns."
"My son and I sold 800 strings of candied hawthorns today and earned 4 taels of silver..."
Xu Zhixun frowned deeply: "And then?"
The boss wiped away his tears with his sleeve:
