"Alright, let's get everyone ready. The auspicious time is almost here, and we'll open for business as soon as it arrives."
The people performing the dragon and lion dance were found by Li Wen. He said that most families would have this when they opened their shops, and some people would gather at the door to watch the dragon and lion dance performance. At that time, more or less people would come into the shop and sell a lot of things.
Xu Han thought about it for a moment and agreed. It wouldn't cost much money anyway, and it was a good thing to attract traffic, so of course she had to invite them!
Of course, the more people there are on the opening day, the better. More people means higher brand awareness, which is a good thing for them.
Besides the dragon and lion dances, there are also eggs for 9 coins for ten, and a 10% discount on everything, which is a great attraction for ordinary families.
When Xu Han arrived this morning, she heard from Li Wen that thanks to the little beggar's publicity yesterday, many people had become curious about the shop, and some people came over early this morning to ask if it was real.
Li Wen repeatedly assured them that it was absolutely true, but since the auspicious time for opening had not yet arrived, he suggested that they first go and browse around the neighborhood, or go back and inform their relatives and friends so that they could come and buy together.
Some people were hesitant, worried that if they came too late, there wouldn't be any left. But when they heard Li Wen say that there was plenty of stock and they felt they could buy some, they ran back to inform the others.
Of course, there were also those who were worried and refused to go home, so they just wandered around the neighborhood.
Seeing that more and more people were gathering at the door, Xu Han said to the people in the shop, "Bring out a few benches so they can sit and wait. There's still a while before it's time, and they can't just stand there."
Xu Han mainly noticed that many elderly people were also standing and waiting, and she was worried that if they stood there for too long, something bad might happen to them, which would be troublesome.
To avoid these unnecessary troubles, it's best to provide other services as much as possible.
People outside saw that the shop assistant even brought out stools for them to sit on, which instantly made them feel even better about the shop.
People who were getting impatient and about to leave were kept on by this heartwarming gesture.
Xu Han went out and said loudly to the waiting customers, "Please be patient and wait a while. Our shop will be opening soon."
Please rest assured that the shop has ample stock, and everyone can buy what they need.
When you go in, please line up properly and don't push or scramble.
If any items sell out, promptly ask the shop assistant to restock.
Everyone understood that the opening ceremony should wait for an auspicious time, but many people were skeptical of what Xu Han said later.
Some even went so far as to ask, "Shopkeeper, are eggs really 9 coins for 10? Are you trying to scam us?"
"Haha, I'm not kidding you guys, the eggs in our store are really 9 coins for 10, and there's no limit to the number you can buy."
Everything else is also 10% off. However, this offer is only valid for the first three days of opening; after that, prices will return to normal.
Hearing this, everyone felt a little relieved, but they still couldn't completely relax until they had bought the goods.
Xu Han didn't say anything more, turned around and went into the shop. When she saw Lu Chuan and the others, she said excitedly, "You don't know, when I went out just now, it was packed with people. The road in this area was almost blocked. There were so many people."
Lu Chuan smiled and said, "Most of them are probably here for our eggs."
"Oh well, who cares! No matter what they're after, they can't just come in and buy eggs! They're looking at all these vegetables and not buying anything, right? Even if some of them only buy eggs, they're probably a minority."
Grandpa Zhao smiled and chimed in, "There shouldn't be many people out buying groceries at this hour yet, but there will probably be more in a little while."
And look, they all came with shopping baskets, so they must be going to buy groceries.
The food in our shop is both cheap and good; people will buy some whenever they see it.
"Yes, yes, yes. We have prepared enough vegetables for today, but there are a lot of people outside, so it seems like we might not have enough. Let's sell some more later. If it's not enough, we'll have Li Wen go to the nearby villages to buy some more."
Li Wen came over to remind them, "Master and Madam, it's time. Let's go out!"
Upon hearing this, the group realized that they had been chatting for quite some time without noticing.
Seeing this, Xu Han straightened her clothes, and the group left the shop together.
There was a lot of noise and commotion at the entrance of the shop. After the excitement subsided, Lu Chuan unveiled the red cloth covering the signboard, set off firecrackers, and the mountain produce shop officially opened for business.
"Please come in, everyone. Today is our first day of business, so please forgive us if we can't provide the best service due to the large number of customers. If you need anything, please ask the staff for help."
Remember, never rush or crowd, and be careful.
After Xu Han finished speaking, she stepped aside to let everyone go in and make their purchases.
The shop was bustling with activity, packed with people. Lu Chuan and Han Qi maintained order, and the people, seeing the two menacing figures, didn't dare to go too far.
To prevent people from taking things without permission, Li Wen specifically arranged for two people to patrol the shop.
Including Lu Chuan and Han Qi, there were four people in total, and Xu Han kept glancing at them from time to time.
Seeing this, the two children followed suit and looked around.
Fortunately, there were many people in the shop, so those people didn't dare to go too far. The group did see a few people in the morning, but considering that it was the first day of business, Xu Han didn't want to make things too ugly.
Once you find it, just tell them to put the things back.
However, these people were only a minority; most people dutifully selected their items, went over to have them weighed, and paid.
After the busiest time of the morning passed, Xu Han looked at the messy shop and instructed everyone, "Everyone has gone home to cook now. Take advantage of this lull and have a meal in turn. After you finish eating, hurry up and load the goods."
"In a little while, when everyone comes to buy groceries for lunch, there will probably be even more people, and everyone will be busy again."
Everyone nodded in agreement, and then they took turns eating inside.
After finishing her meal, Xu Han followed Li Wen to check out the inventory in the backyard warehouse.
You wouldn't believe it until you see it. Xu Han stared wide-eyed at the warehouse in front of her in disbelief. "These people have incredible purchasing power! I prepared three days' worth of goods, and at this rate, they'll all be sold out by tomorrow morning."
You should know that Xu Han prepared a lot of extra stock because she had considered the possibility of the stock becoming too popular.
