Chapter 1595: Chapter 1595: Dong Shi Imitates Xi Shi
Wei Fangfang returned to Donggu County to pay respects to Hu Gengâs mother; tomorrow is the anniversary of Mother Huâs death. When Mother Hu was still alive, because Wei Ronghua was too busy, young Wei Fangfang would mostly eat and sleep at the Hu Familyâs home.
For Wei Fangfang, who lost her mother early in life, Mother Hu was like her own mother, so naturally, she would go to pay her respects on the anniversary.
Wei Ronghua gazed at the string of coins in his hand, unable to help but cover his eyes briefly.
Look at this, such a generous and considerate boss, he canât help but feel loyalty to her.
Wei Ronghua wanted to say something more, but Shu Yu had already turned away to look for Daniu, so he just smiled and kept the coins safely.
Daniu was in the warehouse counting the inventory. Seeing Shu Yu approach, he turned his head and said, "I didnât expect to move so much stock in just one day yesterday; I thought at least it could last ten days to half a month, but it seems weâll have to transport a new batch in a few days."
"Arrange it then, as long as itâs here before the seventh. After all, the seventh is Lanhuaâs wedding day, and weâll all be busy."
Daniu nodded and continued with the tally.
After finishing the left side, he seemed to remember something and suddenly turned to ask, "By the way, whereâs Yunzheng? I havenât seen him all day."
"He went to the government office." Shu Yu knew this because Meng Yunzheng mentioned it when he returned to their room last night; he needed to personally discuss some matters about the capital with Lord Fei.
Daniu didnât ask more, thinking that Meng Yunzheng, being a Scholar, visiting the magistrate was perfectly normal.
Once the inventory check was complete, Daniu prepared to return to the Manor.
Today, the shopâs business was still thriving, with many people who missed out on the news yesterday coming to inquire about the lottery.
Though they were a bit disappointed upon learning the event was only for one day, once in the shop, retaining them depended on the staffâs skills.
Whether it was Ren Yiping, An Letian, or Wei Ronghua, everyone was quick-witted and perceptive; they would assess each customerâs circumstances and use their unique skills to ensure no one left empty-handed.
As a result, even without a lottery, most people still ended up purchasing something.
Moreover, so many people bought things yesterday and returned home satisfied, spreading the word, leading many to come after hearing recommendations.
Seeing the many customers, but several people handling the situation efficiently, Shu Yu simply let Daniu and the others go back.
Tomorrow is the third, the day Dazhuang goes to the Zhou family to propose to Second Sister Zhou; he should go back to prepare.
After all, there were more than just the three of Wei Ronghua in the shop; Shu Yu and Ying Xi would also stay to help.
Shu Yu planned to stay until the afternoon of the fifth, just in time for Lanhuaâs wedding on the seventh.
During these five days, Luâs business remained good.
Though the earnings werenât as high as the first day, the number of customers never dwindled, causing the shopkeepers next door to feel both envious and jealous.
They even sought advice from Manager Wei, but what advice could Wei Ronghua give? Besides putting in their best effort, he didnât have much else to offer.
During this time, another shop in the same alley mimicked Shu Yuâs lottery idea.
Sure enough, the townsfolk, having experienced the joy of a lottery, flocked to the shop, creating a throng. However, this shop was unprepared, lacking a catchy promotional rhyme prepared twenty days in advance like Shu Yu, and didnât offer prizes close to the heart of the public, resulting in unsatisfactory outcomes.
