Tao Xueying looked dejected. "Squad leader, what do we do now? Once the entrance closes, and we're so far back, will no more customers come?"
Yu Yao never expected to encounter something like this.
She was also very worried, but as the class monitor, she had to set an example for everyone, so she could only keep her worries to herself and encourage everyone.
"Let's not be too pessimistic. The afternoon hasn't even started yet. Let's see how things go first."
We can only take it one step at a time now.
Merchants had been at the venue for an hour in the afternoon, and other booths already had foreign merchants. However, the number of merchants at Yu Yao's booth was very small.
Forget about placing any orders, there are hardly any people even browsing around.
It wasn't just one booth, but most booths were like that.
Yu Yao initially thought that the businesspeople were still taking a lunch break and that there were few people entering the venue. However, when she went out and saw the businesspeople gathered around and asking questions at other booths, she realized that the businesspeople had been intercepted by the booths in front.
She also made a special trip to Haixing Food Factory's other booths to check the situation. Apart from another booth that was about the back of theirs, there weren't many customers at the other booths, but there were customers asking questions.
Jiang Zhiwei and her team's booth was conveniently located, attracting a constant stream of customers who inquired about their products, resulting in even better sales than in the morning.
Yu Yao didn't even need to inquire.
Li Zhaodi would occasionally take the opportunity to go to the restroom and walk over to their booth to give them a real-time update on their achievements.
Here we go again.
Li Zhaodi looked around in front of their booth, feigning confusion: "Squad Leader Yu, you have such a good spot, why isn't anyone asking about it?"
"Unlike us, we're in a bad location and can only rely on our own efforts. Two hours have passed this afternoon and we've only completed three orders, with a total intended transaction amount of only 30,000."
Tao Xueying became anxious upon hearing this, "How long has it been and you've already reached a target transaction amount of 30,000?"
By the end of that day, he had earned 48,000, more than all of them.
Li Zhaodi didn't answer her question, but her raised chin said it all. "Oh, I can't talk to you guys anymore. I'm going to help out at the booth after I finish using the restroom. There are a lot of customers, and without me, an experienced person, they'll definitely be overwhelmed."
"Squad Leader Yu, I won't bother you any longer. If you guys are really bored, you can come out and wander around more; maybe you can make a little something. Hahahaha..."
Li Zhaodi strode away.
Tao Xueying and the others were very angry, and at the same time, they were also very frustrated.
If you were full of fighting spirit in the morning, the afternoon was just as chilling.
They were all happy to have gotten such a good location, but who knew that nothing lasts forever, and this golden port was just a flash in the pan.
They were given no chance to react or adjust before it was all gone.
Yu Yao was also worried when she saw them like this. They couldn't continue like this; everyone's spirits were about to fall apart. She had to think of a solution.
Her gaze fell on the colorful photo album on the long table, and an idea came to her.
Since the mountain won't come to me, I'll go to the mountain.
A living person shouldn't be suffocated by holding their urine.
“I have an idea.” Yu Yao stood up and waved to the group. “We can do it like this…”
Tao Xueying, Liu Chaoying, and the others listened and nodded repeatedly, their eyes shining.
The previous dejection vanished.
Rather than feeling powerless and unable to do anything, they prefer to strive and fight, even if the hope is slim.
Half an hour later, only two people remained at Yu Yao's booth to look after it.
The remaining four people split into two teams: Yin Susu and Liu Chaoying in one team, and Yu Yao and Tao Xueying in the other. Each of them took a color photo album and went out to attract customers.
Yu Yao and Tao Xueying waited on the passageway that merchants would inevitably pass through.
A portly, middle-aged businessman in his forties, dressed in a well-fitting white shirt, walked in from the entrance.
His gaze was gentle, and his eyes were kind; he seemed like the kind of person who was easy to approach.
Especially those eyes, which had been fixed on the various food stalls ever since they came in, revealing a deep interest.
Most importantly, the other person spoke with a strong East Coast American accent.
The other person is an American.
That's him.
Yu Yao led Tao Xueying forward with a big smile, and immediately began speaking fluent English.
Tao Xueying was extremely surprised. She only knew that Yu Yao could speak English, but she never expected that her English would be so fluent.
Yu Yao was already chatting with the customers with a smile, and even took out a color photo album to look through with them.
"We are exhibitors at the Canton Fair and would like to invite you and your colleagues to our booth to sample our food. Would you and your colleagues be interested?"
The man was indeed very interested in food. His eyes lit up when he saw the colorful photos of various meats in the album, which looked delicious and looked steaming hot.
After speaking to the people around him, he nodded to Yu Yao.
Yu Yao and Tao Xueying were both very happy to have attracted their first customer.
On the way there, Yu Yao used her past life's experience in communicating with people and quickly became familiar with the merchants.
Tao Xueying, who was standing to the side, was stunned.
She didn't speak English and didn't know what the two were saying, but she saw the businessman go from being distant at the beginning to being friendly, relaxed, and all smiles at the end.
I couldn't help but think to myself, the class monitor truly lives up to his title.
Not only did she speak foreign languages as fluently as Chinese, but she also managed to make the customers laugh out loud in just a few minutes, making them very interested in their products.
Finally, they successfully brought the customer to their booth and won over the American customer and his colleagues with Coconut Grove brand canned goods, securing the largest order of the day so far, with an intended transaction amount of 50,000 yuan.
