Although the shoe store had not been completely cleaned up, everything that needed to be put out had been put in place. So, the next morning, Chu Tian no longer delayed any further, but set off firecrackers and officially opened the store.
As the cannons crackled, Chu Tian scattered a lot of fruit candies wrapped in candy wrappers to the crowd watching outside the door. After everyone had grabbed them, he shouted loudly.
"Everyone, today is the grand opening day of our store. All customers who come into the store and make a purchase today, whether it's clothes or shoes, will receive half a pound of raisins for free. Buy... get half a pound of raisins and half a pound of red dates for free. Buy... get a pound of raisins plus half a pound of red dates and half a pound of walnuts for free. Buy... get..."
Last year, Chutian Space exchanged supplies for a lot of red dates, walnuts from southern Xinjiang, and raisins from Turpan. At that time, because the quantity was large and we were all acquaintances with the other party, it was very cheap, only a few cents per pound. However, it was not cheap in the supply and marketing cooperatives in the city, and they were not always available, only in autumn and winter...
So, when everyone heard Chu Tian say that buying clothes and shoes would give away red dates, raisins and walnuts, regardless of whether they planned to buy anything or not, they all went into the store to take a look.
After all, if you don't take advantage of a good opportunity, you're a fool. People are born with the desire to join in the fun and take advantage of others. Whenever they hear the word "free", no matter what era they are from, they can't help but come forward to take a look.
Today happened to be the day when the city middle school was closed, so Xinxin and Pingping did not sleep in as usual. They got up early, had breakfast, and stayed in the store, ready to help when it opened.
Moreover, when Chu Tian was setting off firecrackers and talking, they had already seen their classmates and their parents in the crowd. So when they officially started business, they both came forward to entertain their classmates' parents in tacit understanding.
Xinjiang is backward. Whether it is now or in the future when online shopping is not well developed, clothing styles that have gradually become outdated in people's mouths always become popular in Xinjiang.
So, when everyone saw the clothes and shoes Chu Tian wore when he came in, they were all stunned, and those who originally just wanted to join in the fun became red-eyed.
Basically, no one who enters the store leaves empty-handed. There is a constant stream of customers from morning to night, which results in the Chu Tian family, two store clerks, and the Chu Jun and his wife, and the Chu Min and his wife who come to help, being so busy that they don't even have time to eat all day.
Zhang Ping glanced around the clothing store, which looked like it had been robbed. She kept saying "tsk tsk" and said, "Little brother, you have a really good taste. Those clothes are so beautiful that people are starting to grab them..."
"This is only the first day. Unless we keep releasing new styles, there won't be so many people coming later..."
Chu Tian explained with a smile, then opened the drawer of the cash register. Seeing that the drawer was full of banknotes, he no longer had the energy to count the money, nor did he plan to count it now. He just picked up a bag and stuffed all the money in the drawer into it.
"Brother, sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, thank you for your help today. I ordered food from the state-owned restaurant yesterday. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant to eat and celebrate my grand opening!"
After saying that, Chu Tian looked at the two shop assistants again and said with a smile, "You two have worked hard all day, let's go together."
Li Doudou and Liu Guihong quickly waved their hands when they heard this, "No, no, we'll clean up the store..."
Before they could finish their words, Yao Xiujuan waved her hand and interrupted them, "Let's clean up tomorrow. Today is a good day for our shop, so we all have to go."
Mrs. Chu nodded in agreement. "Yes, you are our store employees now. How could you not be here on such a great day as the grand opening?"
As she spoke, Mrs. Chu patted Xinxin who was standing beside her and instructed, "Xinxin, Pingping, Lele, take your two sisters to the state-owned restaurant to see if the food is ready..."
Xinxin sighed, then walked over to Li Doudou and Liu Guihong, holding one of them each hand and smiling, "Sister Doudou, Sister Guihong, shall we go?"
Fortunately, the clothes and shoes Chu Tian purchased in Guangzhou had many colors and styles. Therefore, even if the store was sold out in the first three days, the store could still replenish new stock the next day, and each time there was a different stock. This made people in the city know that there was a clothing store and shoe store called Tianrui in the city within a few days...
After a week of bustling business, the store has returned to normal. The profit of clothes and shoes in the store accounts for about 70%, so Chu Tian is very satisfied with the gross income of three to four hundred yuan every day!
"How old are you?"
On the eve of the opening of the grocery and grain store, Chu Tian looked at the boy who came to apply for the position of clerk in the grocery and grain store, and was stunned when he saw his childish face.
The boy looked at Chu Tian, hesitated for a while, and finally told the truth, "In three months, I will be sixteen..."
“···”
Chu Tian frowned. Although there was no so-called labor law at present, he was still a little hesitant about employing minors.
Seeing Chu Tian didn't say anything, the boy became anxious and quickly said, "Although my age doesn't meet your requirements, I can do the job well. Please give me a chance. I really need this job!"
Looking at the boy's stubborn expression, his eyes filled with unprecedented determination, and then at his tightly clenched fists with cracks all over them, Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, then he sighed inwardly and thought to himself, okay, do one good deed a day, just consider it a good deed, let him help out first, and then recruit someone else later.
"Okay, then you can start work tomorrow. The monthly salary will be 30 yuan at first, and you will get one meal at noon. If you do a good job, your salary will be increased later."
The boy looked at Chu Tian stupidly, and it took him a while to react. He raised his voice in surprise, "Thank you, boss! I won't let you down..."
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Don't call me boss, call me Uncle Chu. My boss is only one year younger than you."
The boy smiled brightly, "Uncle Chu!"
Chu Tian smiled, "Yeah, by the way, what's your name?"
"Lin Yuan, Shuangmu Lin, the distance is far."
When the grain, oil and grocery store opened, although the clothing store and shoe store were not as popular as when they first opened, business was still good. Chu Tian took the little boy to see the store for two days. Seeing that he did a good job in weighing and collecting money, he thought he was a good boy who was serious and hardworking.
In the following days, Chu Xing and his wife opened their breakfast shop. Because the food tasted good and Xinxin and her friends advertised in school, their business was also very good. The gross profit on the first day reached more than 300 yuan, which made Chu Xing and his wife very excited as they were doing business for the first time.
