Chapter 442 Betting
"General Manager, what's going on? There seem to be very few people here today."
Yan Guohua was also a little puzzled. It was obviously very successful yesterday, so why was there no one here today?
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw two middle-aged women passing by carrying large and small bags.
It's obvious that he just came back from shopping.
"Sister, I want to ask where did you buy all these things?"
Su Xiaoxiao stopped one of them and asked about the situation.
"It's the First Department Store in front. They're having a sale today, and things are super cheap. If you want to buy something, hurry up, or they'll be gone."
After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, she picked up her things and left.
Su Xiaoxiao and Yan Guohua looked at each other in surprise. No wonder there were so few people here today. It turned out that No. 1 Department Store had snatched it away.
"This old bastard, he has no shame at all, actually imitated us. Come on, Xiao Su, let me take a look!"
Yan Guohua cursed and rushed straight to the First Department Store angrily.
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for two seconds and then hurriedly jogged to catch up.
The First Department Store and the Second Department Store are just across the street from each other, and it only takes five minutes to walk there.
Before the two of them arrived at the destination, they saw the entrance of the First Department Store from afar. There were different stalls set up like theirs, and there were promotional posters on the wall next to it.
Su Xiaoxiao leaned over to take a look and was speechless. This was direct plagiarism without any of their own ideas added at all.
However, they offer 20% off for three items, while here it is 25% off. They offer 20% off for orders over 100 items, while here it is 25% off for orders over 100 items. The discount is actually much bigger than theirs.
"That old bastard Chen Guangjian is so shameless! It turns out he went there to steal my skills yesterday. No, I have to go and confront him!"
Yan Guohua rolled up his sleeves and went to look for someone.
"Old Yan, what do you want from me?"
Before he could go find someone, a laughing voice came from behind him.
Looking back to see who was coming, Yan Guohua was so angry that he jumped up and down: "Okay, you old bastard! You took away all our customers, and you still dare to show up in front of me? I will fight you!"
Yan Guohua looked around but couldn't find any suitable weapon. In a rage, he took off his shoes and rushed forward to hit Chen Guangjian with the soles of his shoes.
"Old man! How dare you do that?"
Chen Guangjian's face was slapped to the side, and the veins on his forehead throbbed. He immediately ignored his dignity and started fighting with Yan Guohua.
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. Isn’t it true that leaders are so fierce in fights?
Now everyone was too busy shopping to come and watch the fun.
She silently took two steps back, wondering if it was too late to pretend she didn't know their general manager.
When two people in their fifties fight each other, it's quite intense.
Su Xiaoxiao stared in amazement as Yan Guohua sat Chen Guangjian down with his butt, then grabbed him by the collar and slapped him in the face.
Chen Guangjian was not to be outdone, and with a somersault he knocked Yan Guohua to the ground.
People around were talking about it.
"Who are these people? Why are they beaten like this?"
"Why do they look to me like the general managers of No. 1 and No. 2 department stores?"
"How is that possible? How could a general manager of such status get into a fight in the street? He's not a second-rate person."
The two people who were fighting fiercely heard the discussions around them, snorted coldly, and let go of their hands at the same time.
They are no longer the rookies they were back then, they have to have some dignity.
Chen Guangjian sneered and let him go: "I'll let you go today!"
Yan Guohua straightened his clothes and said, "You? You're letting me go? In all the years we've known each other, when have you ever beaten me?"
"Just because it didn't happen before doesn't mean it won't happen in the future."
Chen Guangjian said this and looked at him meaningfully with a smug expression.
"Tsk, you just imitate others, am I afraid of you?"
Yan Guohua smiled wryly, "Old man, how about we make a bet?"
Chen Guangjian: "What are you betting on?"
"Let's bet on which department store, the First Department Store or the Second Department Store, will have the highest sales during this year-end sale? The loser has to kowtow three times to the other and yell, 'I surrender!' How about that?"
"Let's gamble, who's afraid of who."
"Xiao Su, come here and write a letter of guarantee for us."
Su Xiaoxiao: Why is she involved here?
The appointed person went over and wrote a letter of guarantee for the two of them, and asked them to sign and fingerprint two copies, and the matter came to a temporary end.
"Hmph, let's wait and see, Xiao Su, let's go!"
Yan Guohua put the letter of guarantee into his pocket and left with Su Xiaoxiao in a swagger.
Chen Guangjian looked at a young male salesperson next to him and instructed, "Go and keep an eye on them for me to see if they have any new activities. Come back and let me know in time."
Humph, all’s fair in war. He’ll see what activities the Second Department Store is holding and then follow suit. He doesn’t believe that he can’t win the bet this time.
Yan Guohua strode proudly with Su Xiaoxiao back to the Second Department Store. After entering the general manager's office, he immediately turned around and looked at Su Xiaoxiao pitifully: "Xiao Su, you must help me with this. This concerns the reputation of our Second Department Store."
Su Xiaoxiao: Does the general manager think she's deaf? It's clearly just a bet between two old men, what does it have to do with their department store?
But since the manager had spoken, she could only respond.
"Xiao Su, help me think of some new activities we can do to attract customers and win back the business that was taken away by the First Department Store. Whether our department store can catch up with the First Department Store depends entirely on you."
Yan Guohua looked at her with anticipation and encouragement in his eyes.
At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly wanted to say a classic line, Your Majesty, I can't do it!
Does the general manager think too highly of her?
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Yan Guohua say, "If we can outperform No. 1 Department Store in this promotion, Xiao Su, I'll give you an extra fifty yuan on your year-end bonus out of my own pocket."
Su Xiaoxiao: She wanted to refuse, but the general manager offered too much. Damn it! She was greedy for money, so she had to worry about it.
"General Manager, let's do a free meal promotion."
“Free?”
"Yes, so customers can take the goods away for free?"
Yan Guohua was shocked. "No, even if we want to sell more goods, we can't lose money, right? Xiao Su, are you crazy or am I crazy?"
Su Xiaoxiao knew immediately that the general manager had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, "Manager, here's the thing. We can set up a lucky draw wheel and put it by the door. Every customer who shops at our department store will have a chance to enter the lucky draw. They'll get the same discount as the one they win, and the highest reward is a free meal."
Her idea came from a modern-day Xixi, who thought that in order to win the free meal, she had asked all her relatives and friends for a chance, but she didn't win it.
Yan Guohua frowned slightly at first, then slapped his thigh after a moment: "Okay, this is a good idea! Xiao Su, you are really the brain trust of our department store."
Su Xiaoxiao blushed a little at his praise. Just as she was about to say something, she heard a sarcastic voice coming from behind her.
