Chapter 1188: We are going to have a good year
Yu Cheng wanted to climb higher which meant that he had to rely on his sister who was close to Yu Dong. Only by getting close to Yu Tong would he be able to integrate himself into the group of those highly influential leaders!
While Yu Cheng was thinking of ways to get close to Yu Tong, the latter was telling Yu Dong about Yu Cheng as well, however the content of their discussion was completely different.
” I think you should be careful these days, sister Dong. I know Ah Cheng, he has been doted on by his mother all the time and he has gotten arrogant with each passing year. I am sure he would try something, you need to be careful with him.”
Yu Tong knew her brother too well, he was greedy, restless and eager for quick success. Surely, after seeing Yu Dong’s fortune he would try something.
” He was here?” Yu Dong hadn’t seen Yu Cheng ever since she arrived in this world, thus she did not recognize him. So when Yu Tong said that Yu Cheng came to see the mall, she was a bit surprised.
Yu Tong: “…” I shouldn’t have told her that way it would have been funnier.
She hesitated for a while before nodding her head. ” Ah Cheng must have come out of the academy to play with his friends and with the grand opening of our mall, it’s impossible for Ah Cheng to not be curious.”
Though Yu Dong was a bit surprised when she heard that Yu Cheng had come to her mall, she was not worried. This matter was not as small as opening a shop or bar, it was a big thing and it was impossible for her to suppress this matter so easily like she did the last time when she was opening a shop.
Since shops opened every day no one paid attention to it but a mall was different.
” I will deal with him if he tries to do anything,” Yu Dong did not want to be bothered by the Yu family. Her life was finally getting better and she was just about to settle down, there was no need for her to get entangled with the Yu family and cause trouble for herself.
Yu Tong nodded upon hearing Yu Dong’s words, though Yu Cheng was her biological brother, she knew that he could be unreasonable when he wanted to be thus she put Yu Dong’s guard up.
On the other hand,
Around six in the evening, most of the customers left.
Shen Li and the rest looked at the empty shelves that did not even have dust left behind in shock. They were simply in disbelief, they had not only sold two hundred catties of vegetables but also meat and bread!
Even the bottles of jam and butter were gone.
As for the rice sacks, it was better to not even mention it. The last customer even took away the remaining ounce of rice that was left behind at the counter for the cooking of the sample.
” Brother Li, is .., is this really happening? Everything has been sold out?” Chen Mi could not believe that something like this was happening, though there were a few pieces of clothes and toys left in the shop that was only because they were reserved by the officials!
In short, everything was sold!
Shen Li was just as shocked as Chen Mi he could not believe that the mall was emptied of customers.
He pursed his lips and then said, ” I really cannot believe it, it is as if I am dreaming.”
No sooner did he finish speaking Chen Mi pinched him causing Shen Li to yelp as he turned to look at Chen Mi and asked, ” What was the meaning of this?”
” You said that it felt like a dream, so I was trying to show you that it’s not a dream,” Chen Mi remarked causing Shen Li to roll his eyes. He turned to look at the empty shelves while rubbing his palm on the spot where Chen Mi had pinched him before sighing.
He really did not believe that they would be able to sell such expensive products but Yu Dong showed him that it was him who was too narrow-minded.
The customers were fighting for the products in their malls as if they were being handed out for free.
It was the first time that Shen Li realized that he was the one who was unaware of how rich the people in the Big Ocean Town were.
” It’s all thanks to the fact that most of our return customers came to support our business,” Ye Liu chimed in as he took off the apron that he was wearing while making rounds around the mall.
” It’s really unbelievable when we think about it,” Fang Chi was quite surprised too, he did not expect that he would see something like this happening. ” Dong Dong did not even tell them when the mall was going to be opened and yet they were here to support her.
Honestly, even I did not think that something like this would happen… we really need to treat our return customers well, it’s because of them that the business was this good.”
The return customers along with Li Wan and the rest had brought a lot of engagement to their business, if not for them showing up then nothing like this would have happened.
Some of the customers were introduced by Song Yixu while some were brought by the old customers.
Two thousand catties of vegetables was not not big but … it wasn’t either small. Selling it all in a day was simply shocking!
The Yu family was not the only one who was shocked, a few of the villagers came to check up on the business as well because they were worried. However, when they saw that their grown vegetables were sold off as if they were hot potatoes in winter, they were stunned and in disbelief.
But their disbelief turned into glee as they rushed back to the village. One of the villagers shouted happily,
” Everyone! We are going to have a wonderful year this time! Yu Dong sold all the vegetables!”
