NFBE Chapter 166 Trial Operation
Chapter 166 Trial Operation
At dawn the next day, the morning light poured into the house through the windows, waking up the sleeping people.
Chen Ruotong led Chen Sanhe and his wife, Zhou Qian, Chen Daquan and his party in high spirits, and spread out in an orderly manner on the three floors, and began the busy and expectant work of displaying goods.
The rows of crystal clear glass shelves are eye-catching and emit dazzling light.
It was the first time for everyone to see such unique and exquisite shelves and counters, and they couldn't help but feel an indescribable joy and excitement in their hearts.
Being able to work in such a beautiful shop is a visual enjoyment and makes people feel honored!
The second floor is carefully arranged as a special area for plastic products, with a wide variety of goods: large items include plastic buckets, plastic basins, plastic bowls and plates, small items include plastic head clips, small accessories... and toiletries: crystal soap, tooth powder, toothpaste, shampoo...
The third floor is dedicated to displaying glassware and porcelain, some of which are crystal clear, some as smooth as jade, and each one is a work of exquisite craftsmanship.
After a whole morning of hard work, all the goods were finally put away.
Looking at the treasures before them, everyone's faces were filled with happy and satisfied smiles, as if they saw a bright future.
After lunch, Chen Ruotong set seemingly reasonable prices for various goods.
Chen Sanhe and his wife were concentrating on writing price tags.
This seemingly simple but actually tedious task took up their entire afternoon.
On June 22, Chen Ruotong asked Chen Sanhe and six other people who were in charge of the first floor and selling Huicuilou products to wear blue work clothes embroidered with the three words "Huicuilou".
Zhou Qian and six other people who were responsible for selling Zhenpin Pavilion products on the second floor wore green work clothes embroidered with the three words "Zhenpin Pavilion".
Chen Daquan and six other people in charge of the third floor put on red work clothes embroidered with the words "Zhenpin Pavilion".
Wearing uniform is "beautiful", distinctive and makes people feel different!
Standing at the door were two spirited young men wearing red gowns, with red silk ribbons slung across their shoulders, with the words "Zhenpin Pavilion" and "Huicui Building" written on them, which were particularly eye-catching.
Chen Ruotong also asked Feng Liangyu to hang a plaque with the emperor's calligraphy on the porch of the first floor, which reads "Huicui Building", and a plaque with the words "Zhenpin Pavilion" on the eaves of the second floor.
In fact, these two plaques are the biggest signs. As long as the officials in Beijing pay attention to the plaques, they can recognize at a glance that it is the emperor's handwriting. Who can not look at this Zhenpin Pavilion differently?
Everything is ready. Chen Ruotong asked everyone to take their seats and start opening the door to welcome guests!
Chen Sanhe was puzzled, "Fourth brother, didn't we say that the opening will be on June 28th? Why are you so anxious? We didn't even send out invitations if we opened the business ahead of schedule!"
"Hahaha... Third brother, everything is ready. We can't just leave this building idle. Let's sell the goods first. This is a trial operation. We'll sell as much as we can!"
"Fourth brother still has more ideas, hehe..."
“Besides, we don’t know many people in the capital, so we can write the invitations here when we have time.
Lord Zhen Yuzhen, Wei Bufan, my second sister-in-law's brother He Zhiping, and Qiao Zien's father Qiao Zhenbang, are the only ones who need to write invitations.
However, as our business gradually grew, we got to know more people and expanded our network of contacts!"
"Fourth brother, what you said is absolutely right! Tell me, can the emperor come on the opening day?
If the emperor can come, the influence of our building will be great, and no one will dare to cause trouble here in the future. Business will be smooth and money will roll in! Hehehe..."
“From what I see, it’s very likely to come.
You have to know that he owns 40% of the profit in this building!
The emperor also loves money. As long as our building opens, the whole capital will be in sensation.
Those nobles and officials should know that this building is the private property of the emperor. Who would dare to come and make trouble?"
After he finished speaking, the solemn and magnificent door of Huicui Building slowly opened, ready to welcome distinguished guests from all directions.
Chen Ruotong walked out with light steps and stood at the door.
With a smile on her face, she gently glanced at the passers-by standing in front of the building, looking around curiously and joining in the fun, then she cupped her hands gracefully and said, "Dear guests, today, our Huicui Building and Zhenpin Pavilion officially begin their trial operation!
If you are interested in what we have to offer, you can take a look inside this building which is full of surprises.
If you see something you like, you might as well take it home; even if you don’t see the item you like, it doesn’t matter, coming in to see and appreciate these exquisite products is also a rare enjoyment.
Warmly welcome everyone! Please come in, please come in......"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of men and women in gorgeous clothes entered the Huicui Building.
The main reason these people came here was out of curiosity deep in their hearts.
Everyone is eager to know what kind of strange and exciting items are sold in this mysterious building.
So, they all stopped in front of the glass windows on the first floor, opened their eyes wide, and tried to see what was going on through the transparent barrier.
Through the bright glass window, you can clearly see rows of exquisite glass counters inside.
Displayed on the counter are all kinds of dazzling gold and silver jewelry as well as some exquisitely designed and beautiful accessories.
Every exhibit seems to contain endless charm and stories, which makes people fall in love with it.
However, although the scene on the first floor was so tempting, everyone's eyes did not stop there.
Because they know very well that the real good things may be hidden in places on the second and third floors that have not yet been unveiled.
Everyone couldn't wait to go up to higher floors to see more precious and unique goods with their own eyes.
Zhu Wu was in the bustling crowd, slowly moving with the flow of people.
He looked around curiously, starting from the first floor and exploring each floor upwards. Each floor displayed unique and amazing merchandise, leaving him overwhelmed.
Everything here was strange and new to Zhu Wu, especially the goods displayed on the glass shelves.
They emit a mysterious light. These rare items are unheard of or seen in the capital. No wonder the princess is obsessed with the property of Mr. Chen Si!
With so many priceless and unique overseas treasures, who can resist their temptation?
After Zhu Wu walked around each floor with great interest, he walked out of the door of Zhenpin Pavilion with satisfaction.
At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind - to inform the princess of the good news as soon as possible.
So he took big steps and ran towards the Princess's Mansion.
Along the way, all he could think about was how to help the princess successfully implement her plan to seize the city.
However, Zhu Wu did not know that the two plaques hanging at the entrance of Zhenpin Pavilion with their flamboyant calligraphy were actually written by the current emperor!
