Three points are destined, seven points depend on face

On the third day, Xia Chuntao was collecting eggs in the village. The price was the same as everyone selling it themselves, and everyone in the village was dissatisfied.

Nearly a thousand eggs were collected in just half a day. Some women found out and went to Xia Chuntao's house in person. They were disappointed to learn that the eggs had been transported to the county seat. Of course, in the next two days, Xia Chuntao asked Sister Zhao and the others to collect more eggs one after another.

With all these eggs, what would Xia Chuntao do with them?

Xia Chuntao prepared two colors of thin wood slices. All customers who enter the store to purchase goods can receive an egg based on their purchase.

Buy goods worth fifty cents, get yellow wood chips, and get eight eggs for free;

If you buy a product worth 100 cents, you will be given redwood chips and twenty eggs as a gift;

If you purchase more than two hundred coins, you will receive two mahogany sticks, forty eggs, and so on.

Customers who don't want eggs can exchange the wooden sticks for all products of equal value in the store.

Why only eggs?

Because this is the West Market, a must-visit place for ordinary people, based on reality, Xia Chuntao felt that giving practical things would be more attractive.

Three days before the opening, Xia Chuntao asked Li Yuee, Shuan Ziniang, Aunt Ye and Sister Zhao to help because she was afraid that there would be too many people. Xia Chuntao assigned tasks to everyone: she and Li Yuee were selling goods, Sister-in-law Zhao and Shuan Ziniang were helping, Aunt Ye was handing out eggs and collecting prizes.

On the opening day, there was a burst of firecrackers, and Xia Chuntao's "Juhaowu" officially opened.

Because of the previous publicity, there were quite a few people watching on this day.

Xia Chuntao said to the crowd: "Three days before Juhaowu opens, every time you enter the store, you will get an egg for free. The more things you buy, the more eggs you will get. We Juhaowu not only gives you many discounts, but also There’s a lottery. If you shop over 30 yuan, you’ll have a chance to win a lottery. Don’t miss it if you pass by!”

"Hey, isn't this great? As long as I buy something, he will give me eggs? Then I will buy something for one penny, and he will also give me eggs?"

"Whether it is or not, let's take a look first and find out!"

Everyone rushed into the store and were first shocked by the spacious and bright shopping environment.

"Hey, this is a grocery store? How can there be such a big grocery store?"

"Look at this bright place, it looks just like outside!"

Looking again, the goods are neatly arranged, colorful and overwhelming. The container is not high, which shows the diversity of goods. People naturally feel more relaxed when shopping in such an environment.

Xia Chuntao and Li Yuee took one side to introduce the items they were interested in to customers.

A young girl tugged on the sleeve of the woman next to her and said, "Mom, this beaded flower is so beautiful. I have never seen it before."

"This little girl is really discerning. Our goods are all imported directly from Rongcheng. This kind of beaded flower is the favorite of girls in Rongcheng."

The little girl blushed slightly and begged her mother: "Mom, can you buy me one?"

Her mother carefully looked at the workmanship of the hairpin and was really tempted, "How much does this cost?"

"This is fifteen cents." Xia Chuntao pointed to several other models on the shelf behind her, "These are all fifteen cents."

"Of course, there are also ten-wen ones and twenty-wen ones, it depends on which one you like!"

After talking, Xia Chuntao took down several more pearl flowers of different prices for the woman to compare.

"The price is really not expensive, cheaper than jewelry stores, and the style is really new."

"This eldest sister knows the goods, and she is an expert at first glance."

The woman accepted the compliment and happily bought the hairpin.

"Sister, please take a look around and see if there is anything you like. We have an egg delivery event today."

The woman nodded, and continued to look at the shelves with her daughter. Finally, she bought spiced rice noodles, wooden basins, bowls and chopsticks, pastries, dried shrimps, red beans... All these items added up to ninety-six cents, and finally she bought two candles, which was enough. One hundred coins, mahogany pieces, and finally twenty-one eggs, plus the lottery proceeds: a hollow carved turquoise hairpin.

The woman was overjoyed and took her daughter home with a full load.

This kind of scene happens frequently in "Juhaowu". The store was bustling with activity.

In the middle of the afternoon, Xia Chuntao finally closed the shop, and everyone was extremely tired.

Xia Chuntao invited everyone to eat meatball noodles at a nearby shop and ordered a few side dishes.

"Thanks to everyone today, I'll serve you tea instead of wine. Feel free to eat, but if there's not enough, I'll call you."

After being hungry all day, everything tastes delicious.

People eat and chat.

Shuanzi Niang sighed: "There are so many guests today!"

Li Yue'e: "No, it's almost the same as when we set up stalls during the Mid-Autumn Festival!"

Aunt Ye: "The goods Chuntao bought are really good. There are many new things that I have never seen before!"

Sister-in-law Zhao: "The key point is that the price is considered fair in the county. Chuntao, are you not losing money by sending so many eggs? I feel sad just looking at it."

Xia Chuntao finished sucking the noodles in her mouth and said, "It's definitely not as much as normal earnings, but it's impossible to lose money. Aunt Ye, eggs are being given out today. How many people went to receive the eggs after only buying one or two cents worth of things?" "

Aunt Ye thought for a while, "It's really not much, maybe two out of ten."

"The eggs given away and the items in the raffle are all my advertisements for the shop. Well... they are just to let more people know about this shop. The discount is over, and the reputation of the shop has been spread. I think this money is well spent. It’s worth it.”

Li Yue'e understood clearly, "I can't blame you for being able to open a big shop. Your ideas are different from ours! If you want me to give it away for free, there is no way!"

Aunt Ye suddenly remembered something, "Chuntao, we've helped you these past few days, but you can't be the only one looking after the store from now on. It's too tiring!"

"It's just that it's not safe for you to be the only one looking after the store."

In an ordinary small grocery store, there is no problem in looking after the store by yourself, but Xia Chuntao's store is not small, and it will definitely be busy without hiring a few waiters.

Xia Chuntao:? !

What a word that awakens the dreamer! She said that she seemed to have forgotten something. It turned out that she forgot to recruit a helper!

She still has a lot of things to do in the future, and she cannot crucify herself in this shop. Recruiting assistants is a must. How could she forget such an important thing?

She is such a pig-brained person!

Seeing Xia Chuntao's dazed expression, Mother Shuanzi asked, "Chuntao, you...didn't you forget to recruit a helper?"

Xia Chuntao suddenly felt that the rice was no longer fragrant, and said angrily: "Now I think about it."

Everyone:...

Li Yue'e laughed out loud, "Chuntao, you are really good. Are you used to us and don't want to recruit any more helpers?"

Xia Chuntao quickly shook her head, "That's impossible! I've never opened a shop before, so I forgot about this matter."

"Aunt Ye, sisters, please help me look around to see if there are any young people who know the basics. I'll hire three first. It's best to know how to read."

"People should be kind, don't be arrogant, and work quickly."
