Chapter 135 Overcrowded
Chapter 135 Overcrowded
The next day, Qinghe Town was more lively than ever before. There were suddenly many more people in the town, and several of Cao Shen's shops were overwhelmed.
The inn, which originally had only a few people, was now crowded. However, no one was too surprised, as they knew that it was the opening day of the Qimiao Grocery Store. It was not surprising that these people would come. Everyone who had received the flyer knew that the goods in the grocery store that opened today were all good and in limited quantities, so those rich people would definitely want to buy them.
Just by looking at the sudden increase in horse-drawn carriages in the town, you can tell that those who came today are all rich people.
Su Qiuyi got up early in the morning and prepared everything needed for the opening. No one in the family worked today, so they all came over early in the morning.
Although the grocery store has many shelves, there are not many goods and the space is large, so the family does not feel crowded in the store at all.
On the table in the rest area were the grapes that Su Qiuyi had ripened with spiritual liquid yesterday.
There's nothing we can do. We put them there yesterday, but everyone who saw them ate a few and they were all gone.
Among the people who came today were the garrison lady and her family, so she had to entertain them well.
I ripened a grape vine in my room last night.
I had to work the soil, pick the grapes, and then deal with the grape vines. I was so busy that I didn't sleep all night.
Originally, she could have just asked Bai Xiaojing to prepare the fruit without going through so much trouble.
It’s just that there were a lot of people coming today, and she also wanted to promote the grapes grown in the mountains behind her house. It was a good opportunity, so she was busy all night.
"There are so many people outside today. I'm worried that it will be packed as soon as we open the store. The store is so small and I'm afraid there will be too many people..."
Su Mingyue was an introvert by nature, and she was a little scared when there were so many people around.
"We just need to keep an eye on those people and make sure they don't steal our things."
On the contrary, Su Wenxing was a little excited and rubbed his hands, ready to catch the thief.
It was because the grocery store run by her sister was too easy to be robbed. There was no counter, so people could just come in and take the goods and touch them however they wanted, which made her feel insecure.
"Got it. I will definitely keep a close eye on it." Su Mingyue nodded seriously and made preparations.
"Let's split up and each be responsible for an area!" Yang Ruxue also joined the ranks to catch the thief.
Su Qiuyi was speechless after hearing this.
"You three should take it easy for a while. There's a counter at the door. Everyone is watching. You can't steal anything without being provoked. Don't offend everyone later!"
She did not use any marketing methods at all. She just sent out flyers a few days in advance, which carefully introduced the items in the grocery store. This had already attracted so many people to Qinghe Town, so she was not worried at all.
"Okay, are you ready? Your auspicious time is coming, let's get ready to open the door!"
When those who were already eager to try heard Su Qiuyi say to open the door, they all got busy. Yang Ruchuan went out with a fire starter and lit the firecrackers while Su Qiuyi and Yan Chenyang stood at the door of the shop.
The opening ceremony went very smoothly. After Yan Chenyang and Su Qiuyi gave a few opening speeches, the people who gathered around couldn't wait to start.
"Brother Yan, please cut the ribbon!" Su Qiuyi handed over a pair of scissors.
We have to rely on the power of the Yan family, so Yan Chenyang must be the one to cut the ribbon.
"Let's do it together!" Yan Chenyang did not take the scissors from Su Qiuyi's hand, but took another one. The two of them cut the ribbon together, and the opening ceremony was over.
There are a lot of people here today and no one can stay idle, so the two bosses went to greet people separately.
Naturally, the noble ladies in Qinghe Town were headed by the town lord's wife. Su Qiuyi spotted the town lord's wife in the crowd with her sharp eyes, and quickly stepped forward to greet her and lead her into the store.
Since she didn't hire a waiter, she had to do all the work of introducing the products by herself.
"Miss Su, we are all here for those skin care products. Just give us one set each. We won't go with you to join in the fun. We will wait for you here!" The lady in charge spoke directly after sitting in the rest area.
I didn't even bother asking because it was clearly written on the flyer.
She had been waiting for the grocery store to open for several days and couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay, I'll get it for you. Eat something, and wait for me a little longer!"
Su Qiuyi deliberately picked up a mouthful of fruit and walked towards the shelf.
Su Yunsheng was the cashier today, but he was a bit overwhelmed by himself. People came in and looked for what they wanted to buy, then came to pay without wasting time.
Moreover, Su Qiuyi discovered that those who came in were all people with purchasing power. It seemed that these people scared the common people, and they did not come in to take a look, but just looked around at the door of the store.
That's good, we should close early today.
Yan Chenyang had just greeted a few people when he saw his elder brother and half-brother in the crowd, with his younger sister following behind them.
The younger sister is not his biological sister, she was also born to his aunt, but her aunt died early, so she grew up with her stepmother and has a good relationship with Yan Chenyang.
"Why are you here?"
Yan Chenyang asked this, but he didn't look surprised at all. He knew that it would be strange if the Yan family didn't come for such a thing.
"Second brother!" Yan Chenguang clasped his fists and saluted Yan Chenyang.
"Second brother, I heard from dad that my eldest brother and third brother were coming to Qinghe Town, so I begged mom to ask them to bring me with them. I missed you!"
The youngest child of the Yan family, 13-year-old Yan Qing jumped forward, took Yan Chenyang's arm and explained coquettishly.
"Then you guys just go in and take a look around. I'm a little busy today, I'll take you to dinner tonight!"
Yan Chenyang was indeed busy, and he couldn't stand his younger sister's clinginess. Secondly, he wanted to talk to his elder brother alone.
Yan Qing wanted to say something but was pulled into the shop by Yan Chenguang.
"Brother, did Dad ask you to come?"
After his younger brother and sister went in, the smile on Yan Chenyang's face disappeared and he looked a little angry.
"Don't blame him. He just wanted me to come over and check on you because he was afraid that you might be messing around outside..."
Yan Chenhao knew that his younger brother and the old man didn't get along, so he explained it anyway.
"Huh... He wanted you to come over and laugh at me, right? It's a pity that you have to disappoint him."
Yan Chenhao wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yan Chenyang, "If you guys are here to watch, just watch carefully and tell him when you go back! I'm busy!"
After saying that, he turned and left, no longer paying attention to his eldest brother.
"Chen Yang, who is that girl?"
Yan Chenhao followed his brother inside and asked.
He didn't want to ask about other things, as they were all his brother's business, but he was curious about the girl who cut the ribbon with his brother.
The girl looked bright and outgoing, and she was stunningly beautiful. Her brother seemed to have a different attitude towards her.
When Yan Chenyang heard his elder brother asking about Su Qiuyi, he became a little nervous. He changed his temper and turned around. He stopped at the door of a busy shop and spoke with a warning:
"Brother, she is just a partner. Don't talk nonsense in front of the old man! And tell those two you brought to shut up, or I will be rude to them."
