"The promotional leaflets are ready, but we printed a lot more than we expected." Sheng Yanchuan felt a headache when he thought about it.
"A lot of them?" Nanqiao looked at Sheng Yanchuan's expression and thought that the number must be quite large.
"Well, it's almost 50% more. Now all the printing equipment is in the hands of state-owned factories. We won't accept small quantities, but it doesn't matter if you print more. I've left the store address and event time blank, so you can use them when other stores open in the future."
"That's fine too. We can make some seals. When the new store opens, we don't need to write by hand. We can just use the seals directly," Nanqiao suggested.
"Oh, right. I was just wondering how long it would take to find someone to write this." After Nanqiao mentioned this, Sheng Yanchuan's direction became clear instantly. He was a little worried before that so many promotional pages would be too much of a project to write by hand. Now, engraving a seal would be much faster.
"I'm smart, right?" Nanqiao proudly showed off to Sheng Yanchuan
"Yes, yes, you are the smartest." The two laughed and looked carefully at the furnishings in the store. The store name was simple and clear - Chaoyang Department Store
There is no other reason, just because this road is called Chaoyang Lane....it is the beginning of their new business, a business that is booming like the rising sun.
Sheng Yanchuan saw Nanqiao staring at the Chaoyang Department Store sign at the door, so he asked, "Have you thought of a name for your store?"
"Fusheng, what do you think? Take a break from your busy life for a while." Nanqiao told Sheng Yanchuan the name of the store he had thought of.
"That's great. I know a famous calligrapher. I'll contact him in the next few days to write a few words and make a plaque."
"Famous calligrapher? Who is he? How did you know him?" Nanqiao asked curiously. As for Sheng Yanchuan's circle of contacts, Nanqiao felt that it was almost limitless. There was no one he didn't know.
"Mr. Qi, do you know?"
Nanqiao shook her head. She knew it was useless to ask. She didn't know much about calligraphy. Even if she was told, she wouldn't know.
"Mr. Qi is a famous calligrapher. He was framed a few years ago and sent to work on a farm in the town next to us. I helped him once by accident. If he wants to write a plaque, regular script is just right."
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
Although Sheng Yanchuan is a cold person, Nanqiao knows that he is kind-hearted. He will never hesitate to lend a helping hand to those who can help him. To a large extent, this is why Sheng Yanchuan has such a network of contacts today.
"Sister-in-law, Brother Chuan" Dongzi came out of the office and greeted the two of them.
"Dongzi, thank you for your hard work during this period," Nanqiao said to Dongzi. Although he was following Sheng Yanchuan, he did help a lot during this period.
"You're too polite, sister-in-law. It's all my responsibility." Dongzi scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Come to my house for dinner when you have time. You've been in Shanghai for so long and haven't been home before." Nanqiao invited Dongzi, but Dongzi looked at Sheng Yanchuan. He knew what kind of family Nanqiao came from.
In the past, in the black market, Sheng Yanchuan was usually at the back and Dongzi was at the front, so many people knew Dongzi. It was also because of this relationship that Dongzi rarely interacted with Sheng Yanchuan in public. Nanqiao's family relationship was very special, and they didn't want to cause trouble to Nanqiao because of this relationship. So since Nanqiao and Sheng Yanchuan got married for so long, Dongzi had never been to Nanqiao and Sheng Yanchuan's home except on the wedding day.
"Come to my house for dinner the day after tomorrow, and bring Hu Zi and Dayong with you." In the past, because the black market was not glorious, he had little contact with people in front of others, but now that the trade is gradually liberalized, there is no need to avoid it. Hu Zi and Dayong have been with him since he entered the black market, so Sheng Yanchuan trusts Dong Zi, Hu Zi and Dayong very much.
"Okay, Brother Chuan, sister-in-law." Dongzi is only one year older than Nanqiao. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes and looks handsome. He is a little tanned. At this time, he smiles even more innocently. There is no trace of the prestige of Dong Ye who has traveled all over the country and made people retreat.
"Brother, sister-in-law, let's go to the inner room and sit down to talk." Dongzi made way and invited everyone into the house.
Sheng Yanchuan and Nanqiao went into the inner room and sat down. The room was not very big, with two tables and a bunk bed with an unfolded quilt spread on it.
"You didn't go back again?" Sheng Yanchuan frowned slightly as he looked at the things on the bed. He had bought a lot of real estate in Shanghai and reserved a place closer to Dongzi and the other two. However, due to the busy schedule in the store, these people often did not go back to rest and just stayed in the store to rest for a while. He had just talked about them a few days ago and they promised very well at that time. I didn't expect that they would rest here again after just a few days.
"Hehe, just this once. Some goods just arrived yesterday and I didn't have time to pack them up." Dongzi scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed about being discovered. While Sheng Yanchuan and Nanqiao were looking at the arrival information on the table, he quickly folded the quilt and hid the clothes he had thrown away under the quilt.
If only Brother Chuan came, the house would be a little messy for men, but today my sister-in-law came too, and I was so busy letting people come in and sit that I forgot about the mess in the house...
"Dongzi, don't you plan to find a partner?" Nanqiao couldn't help but laugh when he saw Dongzi's flustered look. Men are used to being sloppy, and when they are busy, they have no time and sleep wherever they go. Now that life is getting better and better, Dongzi has already reached the age of marriage, and it's time for him to find a partner.
"That's not true, sister-in-law. We didn't have a good job before. No girl would be willing to be with us. Now, we have too many things to do and no time. But I'm not in a hurry. Right now, I just want to stabilize the Shanghai market and make more money. Then I'll have more confidence to marry a girl in the future." Dongzi scratched his head awkwardly. Who doesn't want to marry a wife and settle down? Especially people like him who have no home, they are even more eager. But for people like them who don't know if there will be a tomorrow after today, they can't promise a girl a future, so they simply don't look for one.
