"If you're so good, then you do it."
Jiang Yue played another game of chess with Grandpa Jiang, and she won again.
Grandpa Lu and Grandpa Jiang wanted to play chess again, but they were scolded by Grandma Jiang and Grandma Lu.
Time flew by, and the day of the department store's opening arrived.
Jiang Yue's belly was much bigger than before. It was autumn now, and the weather wasn't as hot as it used to be.
Jiang Yue hired the city's arts troupe, who paraded through the streets for several days with gongs and drums, handing out flyers to everyone they met. Several factory workers also received flyers.
When it opened at eight o'clock, the outside was already crowded with onlookers.
"Is this the same as a supermarket or department store?"
"I heard it was opened by a Hong Kong businessman."
“I saw on that flyer that the items are cheaper than those in department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives.”
"I've heard about it too. I heard that you can enter a prize draw with the flyer. The grand prize is an air conditioner, the first prize is a refrigerator, the second prize is a bicycle, and there are many other lucky prizes."
Hearing about the air conditioner as a reward, many onlookers were extremely excited.
How can I participate?
"I heard that if you buy something worth five yuan, you can enter a prize draw with the receipt."
"What receipt?"
Many people started discussing it.
Everyone is eagerly anticipating the grand prize, an air conditioner.
Zhang Fei then stepped onto the stage, dressed in a leather suit, wearing a watch, and with hair oil applied, looking like a successful person.
After Zhang Fei announced the opening, the sounds of gongs, drums, and firecrackers rang out.
The crowd that had been watching outside also surged inside.
Jiang Yue and her grandmother stood in front of a window on the second floor, looking at the people in the square outside.
"This is truly auspicious for the grand opening."
“Our precious child is truly outstanding,” Grandpa Jiang said, glancing at Grandpa Lu. “I don’t know what good fortune your Lu family has had.”
Hmph, he regretted it a long time ago; he should have let his granddaughter get married a few years later.
Now that I'm married, my husband isn't around, and pregnancy is so hard.
Grandpa Lu said with some pride after hearing Grandpa Jiang's words.
"Young Yu really hit the jackpot to marry a wife like Bao'er."
Grandma Jiang and Grandma Lu quickly started talking, and the two old men who had been arguing also quieted down.
Despite their ample preparations, the number of shoppers exceeded Zhang Fei's expectations.
Zhang Fei stood guard at the lottery draw area. The first person to draw a prize won the lucky draw, but Zhang Fei also gave him 100 yuan, saying that he was the first customer to come to the department store to buy things. He also recorded the customer's address and phone number, saying that he would give him a gift during the anniversary celebration in the future.
The first customer was stunned. He had only spent five coins and won the lucky draw prize. Although it was just a bag of candy, he was extremely happy. He never expected such a reward.
This department store is just too good!
The people queuing up behind them to draw prizes kept asking them if there were any rewards.
Zhang Fei said that the first hundred people in the back would receive a free bar of soap.
This soap was made using a recipe from Jiang Yue, and Zhang Fei led his men to make it.
The formula has now been sold to a soap factory, but Jiang Yue will also receive 30% of the profits.
Therefore, the cost of these free gifts is very low.
The people in line were even happier when they heard that the first 100 people would receive a free bar of soap.
The others maintained order, saying that anyone who didn't follow the rules would be kicked out of the department store and never be allowed to come back.
