Chapter 285: Distributing Flyers
It was not until they were far out of the alley that Tunan asked Hongbin and Pengfei:
"Auntie opened a shop in Yuesheng but kept it a secret from Dad!"
They both nodded at the same time.
"Brother, I didn't hide everything. I said I rented a fixed stall, but I didn't say it was in Yuesheng." Pengfei added.
Hongbin also went to college and did not know about this matter as well as Pengfei. He only found out about it after he came back.
Even when the business opened, it was Pengfei who went to help without telling Zhuang Chaoying.
Tuanan frowned. He understood Zhu Xiuyu's decision to act first and report later. If he had told his father at the beginning, the matter might not have been opened at all.
The various costs and complicated processes would make him back off, even though he could afford it.
Tunan still remembers the disdain on his father's face when he talked about his mother opening a clothing store.
In his eyes, earning 15 yuan a month as a regular worker is better than earning 100 yuan a month by setting up a stall.
But through this incident, he gained a new understanding of Zhu Xiu Yu.
Setting up a snack stall in front of the hospital is different from opening a small shop. Zhu Xiu Yu is smart and far-sighted.
Moreover, she is different from others. She knows that Yuesheng is opened by Huang Ling. Given their relationship, some people would avoid her, but she did not. This requires courage.
Tunan thought again, isn't this her?
Zhu Xiu Yu saw a figure swaying at the window facing the street and hurriedly stood up to greet customers.
"Hello, let me know what you want to eat."
When she looked up, she saw the three boys bending over and smiling at her.
"Why are you here? Come in quickly." Zhu Xiu Yu said in surprise.
Tunan took a look and saw that this shop was at the front, with a window on the south wall and a row of counters on the east side facing the customers entering and leaving the department store.
The shop is not small, and Zhu Xiu Yu keeps it tidy, making it look very clean at first glance.
Of course, this was not only due to her personal ability, but also due to the department store's regulations.
Yuanyuan will conduct inspections at irregular intervals every morning and afternoon, and there will be various punishment measures if hygiene is not done well.
"Aunt Huang called and asked us all to come." Hongbin replied.
"Oh, I haven't seen her come today. Come in and sit for a while." Everyone went in and each had a small stool.
"Hongbin, go to the timber street tomorrow and buy a bench with a backrest for your aunt, and then go to the textile store on the second floor to buy a cushion. How can your aunt sit on this small stool all day?" Tuanan instructed.
"Look, Mom! I said it's useless, but Brother Tunan said it's useful! Brother, I mentioned it the first time I came back, but Mom rejected it."
"I feel okay, not tired." Zhu Xiu Yu said hurriedly.
"Then just listen to me!" Tuanan took out five dollars from his pocket and handed it to Hongbin.
"Hey, Tunan, you don't need it! Hongbin, give the money to your brother, and mom will give you money to buy..."
As they were arguing, they heard the sound of small leather boots coming to the front of the store.
Tunan knew it was his mother without looking up. He stood up, dodged the hands of the two men, walked out of the counter, and shouted:
"mom."
Huang Ling was followed by Xiaoting and Dongzhe. The children politely greeted Huang Ling and Zhu Xiuyu respectively.
"Everyone is here, let's go!" Huang Ling waved her hand.
"Mom, where are we going?" Tunan asked.
"You'll know when you come." Huang Ling replied.
Tunan frowned.
It's broad daylight, and with how hard-working he is, he should be working in a factory.
When buying clothes, based on her fucking aesthetic taste and understanding of these children, there is no need for everyone to gather together to try on clothes. She prepares them directly.
It’s still a little early to buy New Year’s goods.
so......
To sum up, his mother wanted to sell them out and asked them to help count the money.
As he walked, Tuanan looked at Huang Ling with a questioning look.
"Oh, I'm waiting for you all to come back before I do this!" Huang Ling explained.
Tuanan smiled but said nothing, "I think it's work."
Sure enough, Huang Ling led the three of them to a corner at the entrance of the shopping mall, where there were several large piles of flyers.
Huang Ling pointed at the flyer on the ground and said, "Move it to the door first. You'll know what to do in a moment."
"Xiaoting, stand aside."
"Yes, let's do it."
"Stand further away so as not to bump into anyone."
The brothers are very caring towards Xiaoting.
Several people were moving, and more people joined in.
Xie Zheyu and Wu Shanshan also came.
After they moved the flyers outside, Tuanan saw that there were still a dozen children standing outside.
He knew some of them.
Some of them were students Huang Ling had tutored, and some were students who went to work in garment factories to earn money.
"Tuanan, you will be in charge of the arrangements. The goal is to distribute these flyers in Suzhou City for me." Huang Ling said to Tuanan.
Tuanan understood and began to make arrangements. People living in the same district stood together, and then personnel were deployed according to the number of large factories and government agencies in each district.
Huang Ling stood by and watched silently.
Tuanan asked Hongbin to go to the stationery counter and get the cheapest ballpoint pen, and gave each person a pen while distributing flyers.
"I'll give each of you a number now. Write your number on each flyer you have. When customers come to buy something with a piece of paper, they'll hand it over to the counter to earn points. These points also count towards yours. Each flyer will earn you a bonus."
This matter was not arranged by Huang Ling, but by Tunan himself.
He was afraid that someone would be lazy and sell the flyers as scrap or even throw them away. He looked at the printed paper and thought his mother must have spent a lot of money on it, so it would be a shame to throw it away.
If I tell them directly not to throw it away, it would seem like I don’t trust them, so I guide them in this way.
Moreover, they don’t have to come back to report, they can just wait for their salary to be paid after the promotion ends.
Tuanan looked back at Huang Ling, who nodded approvingly.
Arrangements were made quickly, supplies were distributed, and everyone started to act.
The rest were the children in the family, and Tuanan started making arrangements again.
"Hongbin, we'll go distribute the cotton mill's various streets and alleys. We'll leave some for the factory gate near the end of the day. Dongzhe and Pengfei, you two will distribute it at the left and right intersections. Xiaoting and Xiaojun will distribute it at the entrance to the shopping mall. Don't stray too far."
Huang Ling added, "I'll be here helping with the inventory this afternoon. You all should come back here and have dinner together tonight. Zheyu, Shanshan, and Xiaojun should also come."
Everyone agreed and started to act on their own.
Huang Ling wore a silk printed scarf over her black coat. It was a gift from Xie Zheyu, bought with the money he earned from riding a rickshaw.
She smiled and waved her scarf towards Xie Zheyu:
"Thank you, Zheyu, you have good taste."
"As long as Auntie likes her, I'm glad. Her taste is impeccable. I was also trained in a garment factory." Xie Zheyu smiled proudly, then hurried to pursue Wu Shanshan.
Tuanan arranged for Wu Shanshan to be sent to a place other than the cotton mill to avoid running into her parents and causing a commotion at home.
When he was making the arrangements, Xie Zheyu winked at him for a long time. He had no choice but to put the two of them in the same group. There were also two female students in the group who had worked in a garment factory and were familiar with Wu Shanshan.
