In the following week, Chen Rufeng was busy arranging shelves and adjusting displays in the store every day. He placed the new toys in the most conspicuous position at the entrance of the store, and specially designed a small display stand to put some of the most eye-catching toys. After his careful arrangement, the atmosphere of the store became more lively. After school, the children were attracted by these novel toys and couldn't help but walk into the store to choose. "This puzzle is so fun, I'll buy a set!" A little boy excitedly held up a box of puzzles, his eyes full of anticipation.

Chen Rufeng smiled and nodded. When he helped him pay the bill, he reminded him, "This puzzle requires some patience. Go back and play slowly. Don't rush."

The boy responded happily and ran out of the store with the toy. Looking at the smiles on the children's faces, Chen Rufeng felt a warm sense of satisfaction. He found that he was not only running a small store, but also adding some beautiful memories to the childhood of these children.

A few days later, Ran Qiuye came to the store again. As soon as she entered the store, she saw the new toys and showed a surprised expression on her face: "Rufeng, you are really generous this time. There are so many new toys. The children will definitely like them very much! With a hint of pride, she said: "It's true. The store has been a lot busier recently. It seems that my decision this time is right."

Ran Qiuye walked to the display stand, picked up an exquisite little puzzle, and looked at it carefully: "The toys you chose this time are quite tasteful. Some puzzles and educational games are not only fun, but also can develop children's hands-on ability and intelligence. I didn't expect that you know a lot about these."

Chen Rufeng smiled slightly, but felt a little embarrassed in his heart: "It's not that complicated, it's just to see what the children like, and then pick some better quality. After all, the children here are not rich, I have to make sure they get what they spend."

After hearing this, Ran Qiuye couldn't help but admire Chen Rufeng even more. She knew that Chen Rufeng was not a person who was greedy for profit. He cared more about how to let the neighbors, especially the children, find what they want here and find some small happiness in ordinary life.

"Rufeng," Ran Qiuye suddenly turned around, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes, "You are really thoughtful. These children are lucky to have a neighbor like you. A warm feeling surged in his heart, and some of his original concerns seemed to have disappeared. He felt that everything he did, even if it seemed nonsensical, was actually meaningful. He smiled and nodded, and said softly: "As long as they are happy, I think it's worth it."

From that day on, Chen Rufeng's store became more lively. Children would flock to the store after school to pick out their favorite toys. Chen Rufeng looked at these innocent faces, and his sense of satisfaction became stronger and stronger. He realized that he did not need those so-called big businesses. As long as he could keep this ordinary happiness, it would be the greatest success.

A few months later, as the toys sold well, Chen Rufeng's store gradually gained a good reputation. Even parents from several nearby communities heard about it and often brought their children to buy. This surprised Chen Rufeng and made him more determined in his choice. He understood that the meaning of life is not to make money, but to protect those sincere feelings and simple happiness.

One evening, Chen Rufeng stood at the door of the store, watching a group of children leave happily, and a sense of inexplicable emotion welled up in his heart. He recalled the entanglements and confusions he had in the past, and now it seems that they have become insignificant. Life is like a journey, sometimes you will be confused at a fork in the road, but as long as you find the direction in your heart, you can continue to move forward.

Just as he was lost in thought, Ran Qiuye came again. She walked into the store with a bouquet of fresh flowers and handed them to Chen Rufeng with a smile: "Rufeng, this is for you, thank you for your care and concern for the children all the time."

Chen Rufeng was a little stunned. He didn't expect Ran Qiuye to send him flowers for this purpose. He took the flowers, sniffed the fresh fragrance, and was deeply moved. He said softly, "Qiuye, in fact, these are just small things I did. I didn't expect you to send me flowers on purpose."

Ran Qiuye smiled and shook her head: "No, this is no small matter for us. The children find happiness here every day, and you have brought them many good memories. For this kind of thought, I thank you on their behalf."

Chen Rufeng looked at Ran Qiuye, and a wave of tenderness surged in his heart. He understood that although he did not go further in his relationship, he cherished the sincere friendship between him and Ran Qiuye. He nodded, "Thank you, Qiuye. It has become a paradise for children in the courtyard and even the surrounding communities. He is no longer confused, no longer lost, but enjoying this ordinary and fulfilling life. Although there are occasionally some nonsensical things in life, he has learned to face them with a peaceful attitude and no longer worries about them.

Chen Rufeng's store business was booming in the first period, especially when he introduced new toys, the laughter of children and the praise of parents filled the courtyard almost every day. However, any business has its fluctuations, and things began to go wrong.

At first, Chen Rufeng didn't pay much attention to the decline in business. At first, children were still very interested in new toys, but as time went on, the craze gradually subsided. After some children bought toys, their willingness to repeat consumption gradually weakened. After all, their pocket money was limited, and parents' consumption became more rational. He overestimated the popularity of toys, and the problem of inventory backlog began to emerge. Recently, the store seems not as lively as before. "Li Ming couldn't help but raise this question to Chen Rufeng when he was sorting the shelves one day. There was concern in his words, after all, he had also noticed the recent changes.

Chen Rufeng's heart trembled, but he still kept a calm smile on his face: "Yes, maybe the children's novelty of these toys has worn off, and they have bought less recently." He sighed: "It seems that we have to think of something new, otherwise these toys will be really overwhelming." However, he began to feel uneasy. He always thought that he had a good grasp of the market, but he didn't expect to make a mistake in this purchase. The inventory of toys was piling up, but the number of customers purchasing them was decreasing. Some parents even made it clear that they would no longer buy toys for their children because "the house is almost full."
