Chapter 83 Opening 2
Gao Wen, who was stunned for a moment, quickly regained his smile and said, "Sister Zhou, you are here. I am afraid of delaying you."
"What's the delay? No matter how busy I am, I have to come over and take a look."
Gao Wen hurriedly apologized: "It was my fault. Sister Zhou, please wait a moment, the firecrackers will be set off soon."
Zhou Xiu agreed.
Both of them tacitly understood each other without making their words explicit. Others looked at it and thought that their relationship was as good as before.
The vegetable seller felt very strange and didn't understand why Gao Wen didn't tell Zhou Xiu about the opening of the business since the two of them were so good.
Yesterday Zhou Xiu asked him if he knew where Gawain went to set up a stall.
He told Zhou Xiu about the opening of Gaowen's rental store.
Zhao Xiaoshuang and his aunt helped call many neighbors, which increased the popularity a lot.
Seeing that the crowd was almost gone, Gao Wen asked Ding Shilei to set off firecrackers.
The sound of firecrackers means business is booming.
People around covered their ears and stayed away, while children laughed and made noise.
Gao Wen and Ding Shilei stood on both sides of the plaque, holding one end of the red cloth respectively. As soon as the sound of firecrackers stopped, they both pulled at the same time, and the red cloth fell down.
Suddenly, there were cheers and congratulations all around.
“Happy opening!”
“Business is booming!”
Gao Wen shouted loudly: "Thank you everyone for coming to the opening ceremony of our Dingjia Department Store."
Then she took the bag containing candies and cigarettes from Ding Xiaolan and distributed them to the crowd of onlookers.
The woman and child each receive one or two candies, and the man gives one cigarette.
When the men saw that it was a good cigarette, even if they didn't know how to smoke, they hurriedly took it or gave it away.
The children were the happiest. They had free candies to eat, surrounded Gawain in the middle, and followed him wherever he went.
Gawain looked at them dumbfounded, and they snatched up all the remaining candies.
After the items were distributed, Gawain invited everyone to come into the store and take a look.
"Our store is a daily necessities department store with a complete range of items. All products opening today are 10% off. Everyone is welcome to come in and have a look."
When everyone heard this, they were very interested, especially the 10% discount.
Most people walked in. Gao Wen asked Ding Xiaolan to collect the money, while she, Ding Shilei and Ding Shiping introduced the products, focusing on keeping an eye on them to prevent anyone from stealing them.
Of course, the main person who introduces the products is Gao Wen, after all, she is the person who knows those products best.
Master Zhao opened the store first and bought a lot of things, including a basin, a broom, two kinds of vegetables and cooked food.
Afraid that Ding Xiaolan wouldn't be able to remember the prices, Gao Wen wrote the prices of each item in his notebook yesterday.
Ding Xiaolan carefully compared the prices before calculating the total price.
But she's not good at math, so it took her a long time to calculate these things.
After paying the money, Master Zhao said something to Gao Wen and left.
People who were familiar with Gao Wen basically bought two or three things. In order not to cause trouble, they all left right after buying.
As Gao Wen was introducing the products to others, he heard discordant sounds in the store.
"I asked you to hurry up. We've been waiting in line for a long time."
"Yes, the checkout is too slow." Someone agreed.
Gao Wen saw him, and after hurriedly introducing him, he walked to the counter and replaced Ding Xiaolan.
"Xiaolan, let me do it. You go help your second brother and the others."
Ding Xiaolan's eyes turned red and she gave up her position.
Gawain couldn't care less about her emotions now and quickly settled the accounts and collected the change.
Her movements were very fast and the speed immediately increased, and the customers stopped complaining.
The sound of setting off firecrackers and the crowd at the entrance of the store just now attracted many people, and some people also walked in to watch the excitement.
Chapter completed!
