Lotus Pond of Rebirth

Chapter 232 Deserted?

Bai Mingxi doesn't want to make a big splash. For her, opening a small store is not only about making a profit, but also fulfilling her wish, so if she can open it, she just needs to not lose too much money in the early stage.

For this small shop, Bai Mingxi is very optimistic, and it's not as unprepared as Zhang Aiguo said. The reason why she chose this location is to see that there are antique and jewelry shops around, and there will be no situation where one dominates. .

She is very confident in her jade, and it will be a matter of time before she becomes famous, and she not only invited her own friends, but also invited Mr. Zhang, whom she met at the auction.

Mr. Zhang said that he would come to the scene to give full support. Having such an expert come to the scene in person, which can raise the value of the small shop to some extent.

"sister!"

Zhao Hai and his aunt Zhang Qingmei rushed over at four o'clock in the morning to help prepare.

Auntie Zhang Qingmei hasn't had any pimples since she drank three bottles of diluted dew, she has a heart disease gone, and there are still a lot of expenses left. Her life now is many times stronger than before.

"There's nothing to prepare, don't come so early." Bai Mingxi said.

Zhao Hai's face was full of displeasure, "Sister, why didn't you tell us earlier when you opened the store, you only said it after it opened, you are not afraid that we will spy on your jade!"

If he had said earlier, he would have come to help after two days off.

"What are you talking about, brat!" Bai Mingxi slapped him on the head, and the kid would say anything when he got upset.

Of course Zhao Hai knew that Bai Mingxi didn't mean that, he was just angry, it made it seem like he was not a relative, and he didn't say anything.

"Auntie, I forgot about my work, as compensation, you can pick two pieces of jade from the shop~" Bai Mingxi said apologetically.

"Who cares about your jade?" Zhao Hai muttered to the side.

Zhang Qingmei slapped him, then turned around and asked, "Xiaoxi, tell the truth to my aunt, did Ma Tao and his wife come looking for you?"

Bai Mingxi was slightly startled, "How do you know?"

Zhang Qingmei was furious immediately, "I knew they were restless. Some time ago, I heard that there was going to be demolition there, and I wondered if Ma Tao would be impatient. I didn't expect him to come here so fast. Where are they?"

Zhang Qingmei and her sister had a very good relationship. They often went there to play, and naturally knew some people. The demolition was a big one, so she naturally knew about it.

"I don't know where they are. They didn't appear again after they went crazy once, and they probably won't appear again in the future."

Bai Mingxi didn't go out of his way to confirm whether Ma Tao was crazy, but whether he was crazy or not, he didn't dare to show up again after that time.

"Ma Tao's temperament is that he doesn't turn back if he doesn't hit the south wall. You tell my aunt, and she will go find him." Zhang Qingmei raised her eyebrows.

They are all the eldest sister's children, she shouldn't be partial, but Bai Mingxi is a girl, and she is still young. These two points alone are enough for her to favor Bai Mingxi. It goes without saying what the intention is to take care of my sister and come at this time.

"No need, auntie, I've already dealt with it. Look, it's been a long time, but he hasn't come here again." Bai Mingxi said with a smile.

After talking for a long time, Zhang Qingmei gave up her idea of ​​going to Ma Tao.

Of course Zhao Hai knew about that big cousin who had no conscience, so he no longer blamed Bai Mingxi for not informing him, so he ran out to buy breakfast after saying it.

The Jade Pavilion opened, and several antique and treasure shops around also knew about it. They knew that the owner of this shop was still a student who hadn't graduated, and knew little about jade and the industry.

So most of them don't care much about it. An opponent with little competitiveness is not worth paying too much attention to. However, when it opens today, they still stand at the door and look at it with the mentality of watching the excitement and watching jokes, or sit at the door. Watch through the glass upstairs.

They wanted to see if there was any turnover on the first day of the opening of the Jade Pavilion!
The flower baskets have already been delivered, brothers Lian Wen, Lian Wu and Zhao Hai helped to place four large flower baskets at the door. The two hostesses have already dressed up, wearing festive red cheongsams with a circle of white fluff on their shoulders. Get ready to welcome guests when the door opens.

"It's not a large jewelry store, it's just a small storefront. We won't hold any opening ceremony!" Bai Mingxi rejected Zhang Aiguo's proposal.

Zhang patriotically blew his beard and stared, it is an antique jewelry store after all, why is he so careless!
Bai Mingxi made up his mind not to give any opening remarks, so he prepared to set off firecrackers at the right time, and then opened the door to welcome guests!
No matter how much Zhang Aiguo coaxed, even threatened and lured, Bai Mingxi still did not let go.

When it was time to open, several shops around came out to watch the excitement, not all the antique jewelry shop assistants, but also employees from other types of shops also ran out.

They all knew that the person who opened the shop was a student who had not yet graduated, such a tender person, but he opened a jade shop.

"It's so deserted!" A clerk couldn't help laughing seeing that there were only three or five people at the door.

"No one is there, so embarrassing!" Another clerk rubbed his hands and looked at the firecracker debris all over the door.

"Poor those two masters of ceremonies."

"How to say?"

"If it is more lively, there will be some activities to welcome guests back and forth, and it will be warmer. If you just stand there dryly, even if you are wearing leggings, you will still catch a cold."

The other person chuckled, "You're annoying enough to talk."

"Originally, I heard that the owner is a female student who didn't graduate. Instead of opening a dessert shop, he ran over to compete with us for business. See, let alone customers, there are so few people who support us!"

Seeing this situation, Zhang Aiguo seemed to have expected it a long time ago. He kept his face sullen and looked into the distance from time to time. He was relieved until several cars appeared. It seemed that people had arrived.

There were five or six old men who came here, about the same age as Zhang Aiguo, some of them were old and strong, they drove here by themselves, and some came by their drivers.

"Mingxi, don't neglect these customers for a while, it will be very helpful to your shop in the future." Zhang Aiguo quickly reminded.

Bai Mingxi nodded, and looked curiously at those old men. They got out of the car, first took a look at the small building, then frowned, and then strode towards this side.

"Old Zhang, we are here. Congratulations on the opening of your store. I didn't expect you to come here to work for others. Tsk tsk, come on, kid. This is my red envelope. I wish the store a happy opening!" An old man smiled and said Speaking auspicious words, he handed over a red envelope.

Several other old people also handed over red envelopes and said a few words of congratulations, but their expressions were indifferent, and they didn't care much.

Zhang Aiguo knew that these people were a little arrogant, and he was able to come today because of his face.

While several people were talking, several cars drove in.
