Yu Mobai looked helpless as he watched the two of them start arguing again.
The two girls even planned to go to an internet cafe to have a showdown in the game.
Do girls have such a strong competitive spirit?
"Alright, alright, are you going back or not?"
Yu Mobai forcefully stepped between the two to stop the argument, "Are you both hungry? Shall I take you to eat?"
"If Dong Yike wants to go back, let her go. I'll stay and help Aunt Zheng with some chores."
With that, Ji Mushu gave a soft snort and got up to leave.
"And you?"
Yu Mobai glanced at Dong Yike.
"If she stays, then of course I'll stay too."
Dong Yike spat and said angrily, "How could I possibly let that wretched woman fawn over me?"
Seeing Dong Yike run over excitedly, Yu Mobai glanced at her, probably unaware of what he had just said.
If we don't let Ji Mushu go and fawn over him, wouldn't that mean she should also go and fawn over him?
Sigh, I'm just a legend, don't be obsessed with me.
Just as Yu Mobai reached the door, the two bosses from across the street walked in.
"Oh my goodness!"
The shop owner slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "Your supermarket is completely emptied out!"
"Sister Wang, Uncle Li, are you done with your work?"
Yu Mobai asked with a smile.
"Thanks to you, we've sold quite a lot of goods today."
The proprietress smiled and said, "We just finished restocking, and we saw that your shop was still lit up, so we thought we'd come and help out."
Yu Mobai smiled. With a neighbor like this as a business owner, even if he went to school, he could still help out at several places.
With the addition of a few more people, the supermarket became bustling with activity.
Yu Mobai suddenly slapped his forehead, realizing he had almost forgotten something!
He glanced at the time; thankfully, he still had time.
So he quickly pulled out five hundred yuan from the cardboard box under the cashier and ran to a small alley behind the supermarket.
An older woman was pacing back and forth in the alley like a cat on a hot tin roof. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Yu Mobai arrive. "Hey, young man, you've finally come."
"I've been too busy, I just managed to squeeze out some time."
Yu Mobai chuckled and handed over five hundred yuan. "Big sister did a good job today."
"Call me again if you need this kind of work in the future."
The older sister smiled when she received the money.
These few hundred yuan are essentially a kickback and hush money for the older sister.
After all, it wouldn't be good if this got out.
Actually, the car carrying a bunch of prizes circled around and then returned to the vicinity of the supermarket.
However, everyone was in a chaotic situation at the time, and no one noticed these things.
"We'll talk about the future later, but once you leave, we won't recognize each other anymore."
"I understand, I understand."
...
Back at the supermarket, the restaurant owner behind us had prepared a table full of food for everyone to eat. He told us that his family had gone to buy groceries three times in a row to have enough for today.
Everyone ate the meal with great relish.
Especially Yu Mobai, the bosses were so focused on getting him drunk that he got quite tipsy.
After dinner, the group worked at the supermarket until 3 a.m. before finally returning home to rest.
Knowing how formidable this group of people were, the family arrived at the supermarket at six o'clock the next morning.
However, what they saw before them was something they never expected.
Dozens of people lined up in a long queue at the supermarket entrance, holding small stools and slippers.
Some people even brought bedding to queue up.
Are you willing to risk your life for a refrigerator?
What time did they arrive?!
The event doesn't start until 10 a.m., but people are already lining up at 6 a.m.?
Is this how you fight over a refrigerator?
"I've only ever seen this scene on TV."
Zheng Zhaoxia stared in disbelief. "Son, pinch me. Is this still our supermarket?"
"Mom, this is your supermarket. You saw the big crowd yesterday, but there are only a few people here today."
Yu Mobai walked over with a grin, and the group of people in line immediately stood up when they saw the supermarket owner arrive.
"Boss, I'd like to pay the deposit now, is that alright?"
"I was the first one here, what are you doing, trying to grab me? Don't you know how to queue?"
"Boss, I've brought all my relatives here. They're all going to buy membership cards from you. Can you let us pay first?"
Zheng Zhaoxia took a deep breath.
I've never seen anyone so proactive in paying!
She was truly stunned.
"Um, everyone, rules are rules. I will draw names after the event starts."
Yu Mobai clapped his hands and said, "In addition, once any of you have paid the deposit, I will definitely give you some extra gifts!"
"Thank you, boss! You're so generous!"
"With a boss like you, the supermarket is bound to be a hit."
"I already won one yesterday, and I wanted to try my luck today to see if I could win another one."
Yu Mobai smiled and ignored the group.
If you want to queue, then queue up. This is great free advertising.
...
At eight o'clock in the morning, more and more people were coming to the supermarket entrance.
Yu Mobai was very familiar with two of the figures.
Zhang Chuxin and her mother.
The two people were standing opposite each other, watching the busy supermarket.
"Mom, I've already told you it's a lie, why did you insist on coming?"
Zhang Chuxin was very dissatisfied, saying, "Who's stupid enough to give you a refrigerator for free?"
"But your Aunt Zhang said she saw someone carry the refrigerator away with her own eyes."
Looking at the prizes stacked on both sides, Zhang Chuxin's mother said, "Look, they're all there."
"Our refrigerator just stopped working. If it's true, it would be great to pay a deposit and take a new refrigerator home."
"This is all fake; they're just trying to get you to pay money."
Zhang Chuxin snorted coldly. She happened to see Dong Yike coming out of the supermarket. Whether it was true or not, she would not let her parents give their money to them!
"Once they've swindled enough money, they'll take it and run."
Seeing that her mother was still hesitant, she continued, "I've been studying for so long and you still don't believe me? This is obviously a scam! Those people are probably all shills!"
"Hey, you can't just talk nonsense, little girl."
Old Li was carrying things out when he overheard this. He was immediately displeased. What do you mean by lying?
If a supermarket cheats, does that mean its large department stores cheat too?
How can we tolerate this?
Who are you?
"I'm the owner of a large home appliance store!"
Old Li said, "Those supermarkets are probably doing legitimate business."
"Oh, so you're the one who's partnering with them, right? They're all scammers!"
Zhang Chuxin pulled her mother away.
"Damn it, what kind of lunatic is this? Did he catch conjunctivitis because he didn't manage to get a refrigerator yesterday?"
Old Li cursed and then got back to work.
Not long after Zhang Chuxin left, a van pulled up in front of the door, and a group of people got out.
