Relying on the system of criticizing people to become a god in farming literature

Chapter 83 Missed by chance
The back street is not too far from Qiu Mansion. You can drive there in a horse-drawn carriage in a short time.

Tingyu set up a low stool below, Qiu Wanying got off the car first, and then reached out to pick up Cheng Yao.

The two stood side by side, looking at the busy shops.

There were many customers inside, gathered in twos and threes, showing each other the latest fabrics of the season.

There are also many girls in the ready-to-wear area nearby, waiting in line to try on their favorite clothes.

Shopkeeper Wu was not seen downstairs, only a few young waiters were busy downstairs.

Qiu Wanying took Cheng Yao into the store. When the clerk saw that her eldest lady was coming, she quickly stepped forward to greet her.

"Miss, you are here."

"Is the girl next to you your friend?"

"With black hair and fair skin, plus this figure, she looks good in any clothes."

"You can take a look at the newly made clothes in our store. If you are satisfied, I will wrap them up and send them to your house."

Qiu Wanying rarely visits stores on weekdays. Even if she comes, she only picks out a few new clothes that she likes.

Although I came more frequently in the past few days, I rarely interacted with these grassroots employees.

So everyone's impression of her still stayed at the beginning, and they preconceptionally thought that she wanted to bring friends to buy clothes.

Although the waiter was enthusiastic, his enthusiasm was misplaced and he failed to guess the visitor's thoughts correctly.

However, Qiu Wanying did not intend to embarrass this ordinary worker. She just smiled politely and stopped his actions.

"No need, I didn't come here today to buy clothes. You can go and do your work elsewhere."

The errand boy obviously didn't expect that the eldest lady who usually dressed the best would refuse the new clothes of the season.

It was because he was young and couldn't hide the surprise on his face, or it was because the older guys on the side came out to help him out.

"The eldest lady has already spoken, why are you still standing there?"

"The guests over there need help, why don't you come over quickly?"

After receiving the order, the guy realized that he was a little rude.

I quickly put down this hot potato and went to work on other things.

The person who came to the rescue was named Luo Xiaowu. He was the successor trained by shopkeeper Wu and had been working in the Qiu family store for most of his life.

He knows every link very well. If there is a selection event, Gao Luo is also an excellent employee.

Luo Xiaowu has been recruiting customers for many years, and what he is best at is observing people's emotions.

Who likes what style, and what words should be spoken to make it easier for the order to be closed. Luo Xiaowu keeps the tips in mind.

As soon as the eldest lady entered the door, her eyes just looked around broadly at the guests coming and going.

He didn't pay any attention to the fabrics and ready-made clothes on the shelves. It was obvious that he wasn't here for these.

The same was true for the beautiful girl standing next to him, who was not too distracted by useless matters.

The target of the two is not downstairs, they seem to be looking for someone.

Combined with Qiu Wanying's recent movements, we knew that they were here for Shopkeeper Wu.

Luo Xiaowu bowed slightly and respectfully, and asked in a voice that was just clear enough for both of them to hear.

"Miss, are you here to see Shopkeeper Wu?"

Everyone likes to deal with smart people, it is less tiring this way.

Seeing that Luo Xiaowu immediately realized his intention, Qiu Wanying did not make any attempt to hide it.

"I do have something to do with Shopkeeper Wu today. I wonder where he is now?"

"Can we meet and talk about it conveniently?" Luo Xiaowu smiled knowingly. This matter was indeed what he had guessed.

However, there was a somewhat troubled look on his face.

"Miss, it's a bit unlucky for you to come here today. Just before you arrived at the store, shopkeeper Wu went out for something."

"Maybe he went to the main warehouse to collect goods. He may not be back soon."

"How about you go back to the house first, and when Shopkeeper Wu comes back, I will send someone to the house to inform you?"

Luo Xiaowu arranged it well. This person was not in the store. If Qiu Wanying and Cheng Yao insisted on waiting, it would be a waste of time.

Qiu Wanying looked at Cheng Yao in confusion, wanting to ask for her opinion.

Looking at Qiu Wanying's trusting eyes, Cheng Yao lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, knowing that this was not a good place to discuss matters.

Use your eyes to signal her to leave here first, and then talk in detail.

Qiu Wanying accepted Cheng Yao's intention and turned to Luo Xiaowu.

"Okay, let's do it as you wish."

"When Shopkeeper Wu comes back, you immediately send someone to the house to notify me."

When Luo Xiaowu heard this, he immediately nodded and agreed.

"Don't worry, Miss. I will definitely send someone to inform you as soon as possible."

Seeing no one, Qiu Wanying and Cheng Yao had no choice but to return to the carriage temporarily to discuss the next strategy.

"What shall we do next?"

"I didn't expect that the shopkeeper Wu of the first store happened to be out, and missed the opportunity. It was a bit of a bad start."

"It seems that I have been dealing with Cheng Yaozu for too long. If I had known better, I would have speeded up the progress and stopped acting with him."

"I'm so disgusted that I didn't say anything, and it delayed the business."

At this time, Qiu Wanying was upset about what she had missed, while Cheng Yao frowned, feeling that there was something fishy about this matter.

But these were just her guesses, so she had to suppress this strange intuition first.

Come back to your senses and continue to analyze what to do next.

"Then let's put the matter of Shopkeeper Wu aside for now. There is also a Qiu's store in the west of the city, and Shopkeeper Chen is in charge of it."

"This shopkeeper Chen is much younger than shopkeeper Wu. He is a middle-aged man with two sons. The eldest son just got married some time ago. The wedding was quite grand and it can be seen that a lot of money was spent."

"The account books under his name have the second largest number of holes. He and Cheng Yaozu probably made a lot of money out of it."

Qiu Wanying nodded frequently and agreed.

"His eldest son's wedding is indeed not simple, and the restaurant booked is also very good."

"It's just that I'm a little strange. Doesn't he understand that a big tree attracts the wind?"

"It's a wedding that's known all over the city. Isn't it a bit too public?"

Cheng Yao caught the key words in Qiu Wanying's words and continued.

"I think what this shopkeeper Chen wants is this kind of publicity effect. From the gossip collected by Tingyu, there is one saying that when he was young, shopkeeper Chen was in depression for a long time, and many people ridiculed him. .”

"Now that people are middle-aged and prosperous, they naturally want to make a living. Through the eldest son's wedding, people who once looked down on him will look at him with admiration."

"Although this approach is reckless, it is indeed in line with his character."

Qiu Wanying was a little confused after hearing this.

"Then what should be the best way to deal with such a person?"
