Rebirth and Raising a Baby

On the day when the branch opened, Lin Ling handed everything over to supervisor Chen Hongying, and she didn't show up.

However, she quietly changed her outfit and went to the branch store to watch the excitement.

On the day of the opening, continuing the previous activities of the main store, free tasting of stewed lotus root was given away, and many people were attracted to come here.

In addition, there is also a new promotion in the store, where you can get half a catty of braised lotus root for free when you buy a catty of braised pork.

This is Chen Hongying's own idea.

Lin Ling didn't stop it.

Although this activity, to a large extent, will affect the business of the main store.

Some old customers may be willing to go to the branch to buy half a catty of stewed lotus root after hearing about this offer.

Fortunately, there are only three days before the opening.

Let old customers go to recognize the door, and customers can choose a more convenient store location to buy lo-mei in the future.

Early in the morning, the firecrackers blew up and exploded the red paper all over the floor.

The festive atmosphere began to be rendered.

Lin Junkai took his cousin outside to greet the guests, and he was carrying a small basket with bamboo sticks and stewed lotus root in it, so that the guests could try it later.

There are a steady stream of attracted guests.

Some saw the firecrackers, knew that there was a store opening, and came to join in the fun.

There are also some who smell the familiar lo-mei and come here after smelling the fragrance.

"Hey, isn't this sister-in-law? Why are you here? You opened your own shop?"

Someone saw the same domineering lo mei, but the person standing inside was Chen Hongying, and couldn't help but conspiratorial theories for a while.

Lin Ling stood in the crowd, waiting to see how Chen Hongying would explain.

"This is a branch store, and the lo-mei is still seasoned by Lin Ling, and I'm in charge of managing this." After Chen Hongying formally explained, she greeted with a smile: "Uncle Liu, do you want some lo-mei? It's still the familiar taste."

The man nodded hesitantly, and asked again: "I saw a red paper posted outside, saying that if you buy a catty of pork knuckle meat, you will get half a catty of stewed lotus root. Is this true?"

Chen Hongying smiled, and answered patiently under the crowd's onlookers: "Of course it is true, if you want, I will help you pack it now!"

"Wow~"

"brilliant!"

"I want to buy it too!"

"Come on, buy stewed meat and get free stewed lotus root!"

The enthusiasm of the big guys was ignited, and they all scrambled to get closer to the stove.

Lin Ling was very satisfied, covering her mouth and smiling.

Seeing that Chen Hongying and the others solicited places in a reasonable manner, she was relieved and turned back to the main store.

This side—

Aunt Ge found out the desertedness in the store early in the morning, and felt very uncomfortable.

I didn't see a few guests coming over at this moment, some of them wiped the countertop with a rag in boredom, and kept their eyes on the door.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Aunt Ge quickly stood up straight, adjusted her facial expression, and planned to entertain the guests.

"Lin Ling, it's you!"

Aunt Ge was disappointed, feeling a little empty in her heart.

Lin Ling nodded naturally: "It's me, what's the matter?"

"Is the store so deserted?"

Lin Ling glanced around, there were only a few employees left in the store, and no strange customers were seen.

"That's right, it was sold out early this morning, and no one came later, so it's still empty." Aunt Ge said in a resentful tone.

Lin Ling heard it, and nodded calmly.

"Get used to it. Fortunately, we have adjusted the stocking quantity in the past two days."

"The branch store is newly opened. Once the three-day discount period is over, the old customers will come back again. Don't worry."

Aunt Ge sighed: "I'm afraid that customers will develop a habit and won't come to the main store in the future."

At the beginning, she didn't think that after the first few days of opening, the store's business would plummet. Who knows, Lin Ling insisted on starting the business later, making brine several times a day to sell it.

If the business stays at the branch in the future, wouldn't they be embarrassed? !
"You, auntie, don't think so much. It's only these three days, and you'll know when you get through it."

Lin Ling didn't take it to heart.

It's normal for both sides to have a good business, and she doesn't care about it.

What's more, both stores belong to her, so what's the point of arguing?
That is to say, Aunt Ge doesn't understand, so she cares about this gain and loss.

"What Lin Ling said is that it's only three days. After that, the customers will definitely come back!" Aunt Eight echoed with a smile.

Aunt Ge glared at her. Eighth Aunt, an old woman, can do nothing if she doesn't help, but she also helped Lin Ling speak, making her suddenly at a loss as to what to say.

When Lin Ling entered the room, Aunt Ge grabbed Aunt Eight, and the two went to the corner to whisper.

Zheng Xue naturally saw it, and she didn't care, anyway, these two people can't be the owners of the shop, just be a lively listener.

The key depends on what Lin Ling means.

"You, you, if the business in the store is compared by Chen Hongying, where will we put our face?" Aunt Ge said with a serious face.

Aunt Eight couldn't understand, so she tried to persuade her: "For the time being, it's normal to be like this. After all, everyone likes to watch the excitement, and we don't have any activities in the store. If it's still like this tomorrow, it's not too late to worry."

Aunt Ge squinted at her: "Are you really not afraid of being compared?"

"Afraid of anything, Lin Ling is not afraid."

Aunt Eight said confidently that she is not in a hurry to be a boss, let alone a helper.

The business of the branch is more lively, isn't that because of discounts and activities?

"You're right."

Aunt Ge scratched the back of her head.

Maybe it was because of what Lin Ling said before.

It gave her a sense of honor and disgrace that she tied the main store together, and she felt very uneasy when she was surpassed by Chen Hongying as an opponent.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, no matter how capable Chen Hongying is and how many customers there are in the shop, the business still belongs to the lo mei shop and Lin Ling.

What's more, they were also discussing last night, and it was expected at that time that the main store might be affected by these promotional activities in the branch, and the business would be worse.

It's just that she didn't expect that it would be so bad!
At this moment, no one came, and the anxiety in her heart became a little more.

"Aunt Ge, watch TV!"

Lin Ling couldn't talk to her, so she simply used the TV to attract her.

Aunt Ge heard that it was calling herself, and hurried over.

Seeing Lin Ling and Dabao and Erbao sitting on the sofa watching TV, she also sat down.

"Lin Ling, are you calling me?" Aunt Ge was sitting upright, waiting for Lin Ling to ask her a question.

Lin Ling pouted her chin in the direction of the TV, and said, "Don't you like to watch these songs, they will be broadcast again soon."

Aunt Ge was slightly relieved, but also faintly disappointed.

She thought that Lin Ling wanted to talk to her about the store!

"Lin Ling, that..."

"Oh, come out!"

Aunt Ge swallowed what she had just said, and when the singer appeared on the TV and slowly sang high notes, she couldn't remember the previous topic even more.

Lin Ling didn't even look at her, and concentrated on watching TV.

Dabao and Erbao were also watching the TV very intently.

This little guy, Erbao, was fascinated by the sound, and would twist and twist rhythmically along with the singing.
