System, hurry up! Hand it over to the supermarket and hug the country's thigh
Chapter 16 The Neighbor Aunt’s Kindness
By noon, Lu Xi felt a little hungry. She looked around the self-heating and frozen foods in the store, but had no appetite.
Forget it, let’s go out and find something to eat.
As soon as I walked out of the supermarket, I saw the system suddenly appear at my feet and shouted at the spicy hot pot restaurant across the street.
Lu Xi was speechless. How could he be so naughty as to be nowhere to be seen all morning, but show up on time at dinner time?
Moreover, it has been eating for the whole morning, but its little belly is not moving much.
Let it do a live broadcast of its big eating habit, it will definitely attract fans, but its nominal owner will definitely be cyberbullied.
Fortunately, she is rich now, otherwise she can't afford to support this little glutton.
Today is not a holiday, so there are not many people on the streets.
Well, this street doesn't have much traffic anyway.
Lu Xi walked into the Malatang restaurant and saw many diners waiting for their meals. It seemed that this restaurant was indeed quite good.
She picked out some of her favorite ingredients and made herself a bowl.
I started to get ingredients according to the system's requirements, and selected almost all the dishes except vegetables.
Feeling that several people were looking at her strangely, Lu Xi gritted her teeth and placed several full basins by the window.
He asked the waiter in the store to call her outside when the food was ready and quickly escaped from the embarrassing scene.
When Lu Xi came out of the store, the owner of the clothing store next door was standing outside the store bored.
Just as she was about to go back to the store, she noticed Lu Xi coming out of the Malatang restaurant.
The proprietress's heart moved. Isn't this the girl who took over the supermarket that Lao Wang mentioned a few days ago?
"Hey, little girl, you are the owner of this new store, right? I heard from Lao Wang that he bought this supermarket. I didn't expect it to open in just a few days."
Seeing the aunt who suddenly called her, Lu Xi stopped and smiled politely: "Yes, hello, aunt, my name is Lu Xi, we will be neighbors from now on, please take care of me, aunt."
"Well, I can't say I'm taking care of you," the lady boss waved her hand, "We're neighbors, so if you can help, just call me."
"Haha, then let me thank you first, Auntie." Lu Xi thanked with a smile.
The proprietress looked at Lu Xi standing under the scorching sun and felt that this was not a good place to talk.
She waved her hand and invited Lu Xi to sit with her for a while.
"Xiaolu, don't stand so far away. Come and talk to your aunt."
Lu Xi estimated that the spicy hot pot would take a while, and since they were neighbors, it would be bad to ignore her, so she walked over to chat with her.
When Lu Xi approached, the proprietress took a closer look at the girl, who looked younger than her daughter.
He looks quite young, probably in his 20s, like a college graduate.
"It was far away just now, and Auntie couldn't see clearly. Xiaolu is so young."
When Lu Xi heard what the boss lady said, she smiled softly: "Haha, you're not young anymore, you've been working for a long time."
Two or three months is quite a long time. Anyway, when you are away from home, you have to provide your own identity.
Out of curiosity about how Lu Xi could open a supermarket at such a young age, the proprietress quickly showed off her gossipy abilities.
"Xiaolu, where are you from? You are so young, but you have opened such a big supermarket. You are really promising."
Lu Xi gently waved her hand: "Auntie, I'm from another place and have been working here. Now, I don't want to work anymore, so I opened my own shop with the financial support of my family."
The boss's wife nodded and expressed her understanding: "Indeed, it's not easy to work now. My son works overtime every day and hasn't come to my place for a long time."
After they chatted for a few minutes, the proprietress paused slightly and started talking again.
"But, Xiaolu, since you are so young and haven't been in society for many years, I will tell you a few words from my heart."
The proprietress looked around to make sure no one else heard it before she continued to whisper, “Were you deceived by Lao Wang?
This was originally a supermarket, but it closed down. Something happened there, and the police came. Many people thought this place was unlucky, so they never rented it out. Also, the location is not very good. The things you sell in this supermarket are sold in several nearby stores, so there aren't many people buying things here, right?"
Lu Xi smiled back politely. The system didn't mention the police matter, so she didn't know about it. But it was a fact that no one knew about it, so she didn't feel unhappy about what the boss lady said.
Seeing that Lu Xi didn't say anything, the proprietress thought that she had hit upon her secrets.
"Xiaolu, your store is not open for a clear reason, and it's too close to that big supermarket. Since they opened, fewer people come here to buy things."
The proprietress leaned closer to Lu Xi and whispered, "They have activities every day, and the flow of people is concentrated there. Your small shop, except for those who come to buy small items nearby, there are not many people coming in this morning."
Lu Xi smiled and started to make up stories.
"Auntie, I know this situation, but opening a supermarket has been my dream since I was a child, so I still want to give it a try."
I did have the dream of opening a supermarket, but I couldn’t save much money from my previous job, so it was difficult to even go shopping in a supermarket, let alone open one. So the dream eventually came to nothing.
"Dreams. When I was young, I was also so driven and frivolous. I thought I could do anything."
The proprietress spoke with a sigh, as if she was lost in memories.
She shook her head gently. "I've seen too many of you young people talking about your dreams. But, doing business is not that simple."
Lu Xi listened quietly without interrupting the proprietress's thoughts. She could feel the emotion in her words.
"However, working hard for your dream is always better than not working at all." The proprietress came back to her senses and looked at Lu Xi.
The girl is very young and dressed simply, so she doesn’t look like a rich person. But since she was able to buy a store and open a supermarket, her family must be well off.
The boss lady shook her head and said, "Forget it, forget it. It's their own business. My family supports it. I won't make things more complicated."
Lu Xi picked up what the boss lady said and said with a smile: "Well, young people are not afraid of losing."
The lady boss nodded and encouraged Lu Xi, "Okay, then you should work hard and strive to become bigger and stronger than the supermarket next door."
Lu Xi nodded: "Thank you, Auntie. I'll do my best!"
She knew that the boss lady's words and reminders to her were all well-intentioned, and she didn't say anything bad.
At this time, the Malatang waiter also came out and called Lu Xi to pick up the food.
Seeing this, Lu Xi prepared to leave.
She stood up and said goodbye to the proprietress, "Auntie, thank you for talking to me for so long. I'll leave first."
The proprietress also stood up and said, "Come and sit here often and chat with me."
"Okay, sure." Lu Xi responded with a smile.
Maybe it's not just the lady boss. Everyone around here who knows about the opening of this supermarket is not optimistic.
Some people also speculate that it will go bankrupt soon just like the previous supermarket.
Lu Xi didn't care at all and let them guess whatever they wanted.
Now you don’t have to get up early and go to work late, there is no performance pressure, no weekly assessments, no need to please the boss, no need to maintain relationships with colleagues, and no need to worry about being caught slacking off.
The most important thing is, don’t worry about having no money.
What is there to worry about?
Don't worry about whether the business is good or bad.
There are only a few people entering the supermarket every day, so she is happy and relaxed.
Occasionally, when there was work to be done, she could pay someone to do it.
If there is something you can't do, the system will help you.
I feel so happy and relaxed, it's almost like I'm flying.
It is impossible to go bankrupt. We will strive to become bigger and stronger and create greater glory!!!
