Chapter 285 Shop Trivia
Regional city.
Zhao Yi still contacted the Transportation Department to send two trucks to transport the home appliances back to the department store. Tang Wenjie had been waiting at the door of the department store for a long time, and his face was full of joy.
"Comrade Tang, what good news has happened to you?"
As soon as Zhao Yi got down from the passenger seat, he saw Tang Wenjie smiling unconsciously from time to time.
"Brother Yi, I'm getting married at the end of this month. I came here to buy some goods and to invite you to my wedding."
Tang Wenjie took out an invitation and handed it to Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi took the invitation and nodded.
"I will definitely go."
Only Zheng Hongtao was somewhat unhappy, because Tang Wenjie's marriage partner was his second sister Zheng Shengnan. A guy younger than him suddenly became his brother-in-law, and the gap was really hard to accept.
Although I was mentally prepared, I still felt a little surprised when the parents of the two families decided on the marriage together. The two families are old friends with similar family backgrounds, so naturally both parties are very satisfied with such a wedding.
"Comrade Zheng, what happened?"
Zhao Yi saw that Zheng Hongtao seemed a little unhappy.
"Nothing, I just can't figure it out."
Zheng Hongtao smiled bitterly.
Zheng Hongtao was already married, and his wedding was the day after Tang Wenjie came back from his first trip to the city to purchase goods. However, both parties disliked each other at the time, so Tang Wenjie did not attend Zheng Hongtao's wedding.
After purchasing the goods, the two left the regional city.
Zhao Yi came to the shops in the square. The two storefronts were almost ready. There were no major changes except building a wall to turn the original door into a window and opening another window on the wall. The planning of the shop had been completed in four days.
Making shelves and other things is easy for two carpenters. They can finish it in two days with two apprentices. The more difficult part is the furniture in the yard, but it will also be completed in a few days.
When Zhao Yi came here, Zhang Jing was cleaning with Luo Hui, and they were wiping the dust off the shelves.
"The head of the family."
"Brother Yi."
The two heard someone coming in and looked back, just in time to see Zhao Yi coming in.
"After we finish the work here, we can start sorting the goods and putting them here today."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
"Then you can discuss it with my uncle. I'll find someone to deliver the appliances there. I've ordered a lot of appliances these days."
When Zhang Jing saw Zhao Yi coming back, she didn't need to work here anymore. After saying that, Zhang Jing rushed home and asked Zhang Xiang to help deliver the home appliances to the store.
Zhao Yi took Luo Hui to place the goods brought into the store on the shelves.
As soon as the stall was set up, Zhao Dajiang came over from the backyard. He had been busy bringing luggage from the staff building over these past two days. It would be convenient for him to live here and go to and from work. With electricity, he wouldn't have to close the stall so early.
The groceries Zhao Yi brought in this time were quite a lot, several times more than before.
"Let's put the remaining things in the backyard. It's more convenient this way."
Zhao Yi looked at his uncle and said.
"OK."
Zhao Dajiang nodded.
"Have you applied for the business license for your uncle's grocery store? It will be troublesome if you don't have a license once you open the store."
Only then did Zhao Yi remember the most important part of the grocery store.
"Xiao Jing took me there to get it done. I'll hang it up right away."
Zhao Dajiang said as he came to the backyard, where four carpenters were busy. Since Zhao Dajiang was anxious to move in, they first made the bed in the master bedroom and were now working on the wardrobe.
Zhao Dajiang took the small frame made by the carpenter, glued the license inside the frame, and hung the license above the cash register.
At this time, Luo Hui was hanging up skirts and shirts from the next room, being very careful not to dirty the clothes. The pure white dress made the girl unable to take her eyes off it. She heard Zhao Yi say that the price of the dress was only 14 yuan, but she couldn't afford it with her monthly salary of only 18 yuan.
Zhao Yi found a large piece of red paper and wrote the words "Zhao's Grocery Store" in large letters on it with a brush. Then he found a high stool and pasted the red paper above the main gate.
At this time, everyone who came to visit the square saw the scene opposite at a glance. They were curious and walked over here. As soon as they arrived, they saw Zhao Dajiang who had not set up a stall for several days.
"Uncle, we have been looking for you for a few days. Why haven't you been setting up the stall these days?"
A beautiful female comrade looked at Zhao Dajiang and asked.
Although they said this, they were actually worried that Zhao Dajiang would be taken away with a red armband because of his business, and might not be allowed to do business in the future. They didn't expect to see Zhao Dajiang when they came to watch the fun.
"I have opened two shops. I won't set up a stall across the street anymore. By the way, the skirts you've been dreaming of have arrived. You can see them in the back room. The price of each section is written on red paper."
Zhao Dajiang explained with a smile that, in fact, it was because there were not enough goods to sell, so he didn't need to set up the stall these two days, otherwise Zhao Dajiang would not waste time.
Several pretty girls walked into the inner room and were immediately unable to walk after seeing the clothes. White, red, and floral styles are not necessarily seen in department stores, especially the white leather sandals under the hangers.
The girl who loves beauty can look away when seeing such a scene. It’s not that girls nowadays don’t like to dress up, but that they don’t have the opportunity to buy the supplies on the market now.
Take leather shoes for example, the most common ones are black, and black leather shoes are basically invisible.
"Are these shoes also fourteen dollars a pair?"
Several girls who entered the store looked at Luo Hui and asked.
"The sandals are display items and have not yet been priced."
Luo Hui shook her head.
When she saw the leather shoes just now, she liked them very much and asked Zhao Yi how much they cost. Zhao Yi said they were display items.
People nowadays don't know how to touch things when shopping. This is because it is a habit they developed in the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores. If they touch things without buying anything, the salesperson will not give them a good look and they may even get beaten.
Can I use the hanger to compare the sizes?
“This is fine.”
Luo Hui nodded immediately.
Several girls smiled happily and held the hangers to their chests.
“Does it look good?”
"nice."
The girl traveling with her also quickly picked one and put it on her chest for comparison.
"Comrades, we are not open yet. We will officially open tomorrow. You can try on clothes in this room. There will be a mirror here. If you are not satisfied after trying on clothes, you don't have to buy them."
Zhao Yi came up to several customers and said with a smile.
It is true that the store has not opened yet, and the prices on the shelves at the door have not been written on red paper yet. As for the leather sandals, the price has not been set yet.
"What time will you open tomorrow?"
Several girls reluctantly put their skirts back to their original places and asked.
"We will open early tomorrow morning. I hope you can help promote it. If you bring customers here, I can give you some small gifts."
Zhao Yi smiled and took out the new hairpins from the shelf to show them to the few people.
