"If that's the case, I should really buy some to try. Boss, give me two pounds of pork, too. I want the kind with more fat."

"Okay."

All things are difficult at the beginning. Once someone starts buying, others will follow. However, most people buy pork vermicelli, while no one is interested in beef.

Who cares? There are people watching. Xia Ran and the others will patiently entertain and introduce the products to the public. No matter how many people buy the products, at least the store is very popular and there are many people walking around to look at the products.

Chinese people love to join in the fun, and even if they think the price is high, it does not stop them from coming and joining in the fun.

Xia Ran took the time to cut some apple pieces, put them on a plate and let everyone who was strolling around come and try them. Everyone who tasted them said they were delicious.

Even if they still think it's too expensive and don't buy it in the end, it doesn't matter. They will definitely chat with each other after returning home and help promote it, so this work is not in vain.

Customers come and go, it's very lively.

Until the former landlord Aunt Yang came in and said, "Congratulations, Xiao Xia, you are so fast. You have already opened your business. I have been paying special attention to your place."

"Thank you, Aunt Yang, for your concern. I haven't seen you for a few days. You look younger. Are you here for shopping?"

"No, no, I'm already old, I can't compare with you young people," Aunt Yang replied cheerfully, "It rained for a few days in a row, and I was bored staying at home, so I came out for a walk. I didn't expect that your place was open for business, so I came to take a look."

"Yeah, once you've cleaned it up, let's open it. Otherwise, it would be a waste to leave it empty."

"Xiao Xia, your price is not low, is it easy to sell?"

"Not bad. The goods here are basically special supplies, and they are all large-scale. As for retail sales, it doesn't matter how much I sell. I don't count on this. I have already made reservations with many units and restaurants."

Xia Ran spoke loudly, trying to make sure that people around him could hear her. Just brag as much as you can. When you are out in the world, your identity is given by yourself.

People follow the crowd!

"That's great, Xiao Xia. You are really capable. In such a short time, you have already ordered a lot of goods. It's amazing."

"Aunt Yang, it's not that I'm great, it's mainly because the product is good enough and it's the only one in Shanghai, so it's naturally easy to sell. There's never a shortage of customers for good products in Shanghai."

Aunt Yang agreed, "Of course. Hey, Xiao Xia, do you still need the shop recently?" She asked in a low voice. It is rare to find a customer as efficient as Xiao Xia.

Besides, Xiao Xia is so capable, she must have enough money, so why not just ask her? What if she changes her mind and wants to buy it again?

"Aunt Yang, I haven't planned to keep the shop recently. I don't need it for the time being. I want to build a yard. Have you heard of any place that sells one? A small western-style house or an ancient courtyard house will do. I just want a bigger one with a better location."

In fact, Xia Ran prefers courtyards in the style of Siheyuan or Suzhou Gardens. However, those courtyards are hard to find, and are usually owned by aristocratic families.

Ordinary people can't own it. It's not a matter of money. Even if it is for sale, due to different circles, it will be bought by people who know the value of it before the news leaks out.

Aunt Yang took a close look at Xia Ran and said, "Well, her feeling was right. Comrade Xia is not short of money and is planning to buy a yard directly. A good yard is more expensive." After thinking for a while, she said:

"There are many takeout restaurants, and I guess they may not meet your requirements. Otherwise, I'll keep an eye on them."

"Thank you very much."

In the end, the two of them exchanged contact information, and Xia Ran explained in detail her requirements for the house. She wanted to live in a private courtyard.

When Aunt Yang left, Xia Ran packed two apples for her.

Halfway through, Liu Juan and Xu Gang from the shop next door brought two flower baskets and placed them at the door. Upon seeing this, Yang Guanghui followed the custom of his hometown and set off two more strings of firecrackers, as he had bought a lot of firecrackers anyway.

By the way, it won’t hurt to attract more people. There will be no harm in setting off more firecrackers today. The effect will naturally be good. Many people came here following the sound.

Liu Juan glanced at Xia Ran and said, "Why didn't you tell me that you were opening your business? I only found out after Xu Gang told me about it. You don't treat us as your friends."

"It's not a big deal, and I didn't want to delay your business, so I didn't tell you." The main thing is that it's a matter of costing others money, so it's hard to talk about it.

"Hehe, I think you're just overthinking it. The opening of a business is a great event, and we can share in your good fortune by coming here. You're trying to stop us from sharing in your good fortune. However, I still wish you lots of wealth."

Xia Ran said: "It's my fault, it's my fault. Let's have lunch together at noon. I'll come to find you then." Liu Juan didn't often stay in the store. She came selectively. Xia Ran didn't specifically tell her for fear that she would leave early.

"No, no, there's no need to eat any day. There are so many people here today. I should take advantage of the popularity and sell the goods. I will also go to the store today. There are so many people coming in."

Liu Juan was also very happy. There was a lot of traffic here. Among all the people who came into Xia Ran's shop, there were always some who were willing to visit her shop. This was a rare opportunity and she had to seize it.

"We're not going to a restaurant. Do you smell the food? The two big pots of meat stewed at the door are prepared for lunch. We can buy some staple food or other dishes to pair with them and it will be ready to be served. Don't refuse!"

"Okay, I get it." To be honest, this smell is really delicious.

Liu Juan took a look at the goods and prices inside and had the same idea as other customers: the prices here were really not low.

At this moment, regardless of whether they buy or not, there are more and more customers, and it feels like the place is crowded.

Seeing this, Liu Juan didn't say much and quickly squeezed out to help look after her own shop. Today was a rare good day.

There are still more customers who look at things than customers who buy them. However, there are still buyers. There is no shortage of rich people in this place, and there are still many customers who know what goods are and can afford them.

Xia Ran didn't have time to think about anything else. Regardless of whether the other party would buy it or not, she still tried her best to introduce it to everyone. At least she had to make it known to everyone why she sold it at a high price.

At the same time, we had to keep an eye on them to make sure no one took away some of their stuff. Especially with the apples, with so many people around, it was inevitable that someone would take advantage of the situation and Xia Ran was mainly responsible for this.

From time to time, they would cut an apple for everyone to taste. Everyone who had eaten it was always fascinated, mainly because the apples were so delicious, and of course the price was also exceptionally good.

Those who have more money will buy a few to take home for their families to try. Those who are tight on money can only enjoy them.

Those who are reluctant to buy apples will always buy some pork, vermicelli or potatoes. This is another kind of compromise. Chinese people like to compromise.

At half past nine, Chen Jin came over in a taxi, carrying a bunch of gifts and two flower baskets prepared separately.
