Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

Jia Dongxu was stunned for a moment, then he stopped smiling and thought seriously about Chen Rufeng's words. He said earnestly, "Old Chen, I understand what you mean. Sometimes people need some changes in life, otherwise they are prone to fall into this boring state. But at our age, we can't pursue those excitement and novelty too much. Steady progress is the most important thing. But he still felt a little empty in his heart. He knew that what Jia Dongxu said made sense, but the nonsensical feeling in his heart did not dissipate. It was as if an invisible fog enveloped his heart, making him unable to see the future clearly.

After a while, Ran Qiuye walked into the canteen with a few students. She saw Chen Rufeng and Jia Dongxu chatting, and a smile appeared on her face. She said gently: "Boss Chen, Brother Jia, what are you two talking about? It looks quite serious."

Chen Rufeng raised his head and met her gaze, the sense of incomprehension in his heart became stronger. Perhaps his mood swings in the past few days were more or less related to Ran Qiuye. Although he had tried his best to hide that emotion, Ran Qiuye's appearance always inevitably stirred his mood.

"Nothing, Qiuye, we're just chatting." Chen Rufeng forced a smile, "What did you come here to buy for the kids today?"

Ran Qiuye walked to the stationery area and said softly, "Some of the children have run out of stationery. Bring them here to replenish it. By the way, Boss Chen, have you bought some new things recently? Some of them seem different from before."

Chen Rufeng nodded: "Yes, I have added some new products recently, thinking that everyone will have more choices. If you need anything, you can always tell me."

Ran Qiuye smiled slightly: "You are always so attentive, no wonder everyone likes to come here."

Her smile was still warm, but Chen Rufeng felt a little pain in his heart. He couldn't help thinking that perhaps it was because of Ran Qiuye's gentleness and thoughtfulness that he fell into this emotional vortex that he couldn't get rid of. He knew that he couldn't go on like this, but he couldn't find a way to get rid of it.

After the students finished selecting their stationery, they walked out of the store with laughter. Ran Qiuye followed them, took one last look at Chen Rufeng, and said goodbye softly: "Boss Chen, Brother Jia, I'm leaving first. You guys chat slowly, I'll come back to see you when I have time."

Chen Rufeng watched her figure disappearing outside the door, and the sense of incomprehension in his heart became stronger and stronger. He knew that he had to make some changes and could not waste his time doing nothing. But he had no answer as to what to do.

Seeing Chen Rufeng staring at the door in a daze, Jia Dongxu couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder: "Old Chen, I think you are too thoughtful. You think too much about everything. In fact, there is no need to think too much about many things. You might as well find a chance to go out and relax, change the environment, maybe you can think things through. He was a little shaken in his heart. Maybe he should leave this familiar courtyard temporarily, go out for a walk, and get away from these daily trivialities, maybe he can find the answer.

"You have a point, Dongxu." Chen Rufeng nodded slowly and began to think, "Maybe I should go out for a walk, see the outside world, and change my mood. But what about this store? Who will take care of it when I'm not here?"

Jia Dongxu smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I'll take care of this. Anyway, I don't have much work in my repair shop, so I'll help you look after the shop. It won't be too late to come to me if you have any problems."

Chen Rufeng was grateful, and although he was still a little hesitant, he understood that Jia Dongxu's proposal was indeed a good idea. He needed an opportunity to get out of the nonsensical state he had been in during this period, instead of continuing to go around in circles.

"That's settled then. I'm going to get ready and go out for a few days to relax." Chen Rufeng finally made up his mind and said to Jia Dongxu gratefully, "I'll trouble you with the store during this period. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions."

Jia Dongxu smiled cheerfully: "No problem, brother, you're welcome!"

Chen Rufeng decided to temporarily leave the store to relax, but his plan was eventually shelved. Although he knew that he needed some changes and adjustments, with Jia Dongxu's advice, he realized that he could make some breakthroughs in the operation of the store to get himself out of this nonsensical state.

A few days later, early in the morning, while flipping through several purchase lists, he suddenly remembered that a group of children had come to the store recently. They always gathered in the store to look through the old toys and stationery. Although they looked expectant, they always returned empty-handed. This made him feel uneasy, thinking that he seemed to have ignored the needs of these little customers.

"Maybe it's time to add some new toys." Chen Rufeng said to himself, and began to think about how to make these children find more fun in the canteen.

He recalled his childhood, when toys were simple but could bring endless joy to children. Today's children have more choices, but there are not many things that can really make them excited. Perhaps he could work on this and inject some new elements into the store.

"Old Chen, what are you thinking about? You look so engrossed." Jia Dongxu's voice interrupted his thoughts. Chen Rufeng looked up and saw him standing at the door with a smile on his face, holding a bag of breakfast in his hand.

Chen Rufeng smiled, took the breakfast, and said, "I was thinking whether I should add some new toys to the store recently. I see a lot of children coming in these days, but few actually buy anything. I think the toys in our store may be a bit old and it's time to replace them with new ones."

Jia Dongxu nodded and agreed, "Your idea is good. Children nowadays have high standards, and old toys are indeed not very attractive. Why don't you go to the wholesale market and get some new and trendy toys? They will definitely attract a lot of young customers."

Chen Rufeng felt that what Jia Dongxu said made sense, and he became more determined to buy a batch of new toys. That day, he began to plan to go to the wholesale market to select toys. Although the store was small, he knew that the type and quality of toys had a great impact on the business, especially when facing a group of children who were easily bored with the old and easily interested in new things, so choosing the right toys was even more important.

When he arrived at the wholesale market, Chen Rufeng was attracted by the dazzling array of toys. Various plastic models, plush toys, and educational toys filled the stalls, making him a little dazzled. He stood in front of a stall, staring at a row of brand new remote-controlled cars, wondering whether these toys would be popular among children in the store.
