My sister broke off her engagement to marry someone richer? My older sister married me and became in

Wu Dafa was involved in an industry agreement with Lu Qingshan a few days ago.

There was a huge pile of junk that they failed to sell by taking advantage of the situation.

They all ended up being dumped.

His men naturally held a grudge, as the mountain products from Xiushan had cut off their source of income.

This was quite amusing, and everyone burst into laughter.

Monkey Three stood at the entrance of the Xiushan Mountain Products store, his anger rising to his head.

He rolled up the sleeves of his cotton-padded jacket, revealing his strong arms, and strode across the street.

"You old bastard! It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering! I'm going to tear your mouth apart today!"

Lin Xiulan stood behind Hou San, reached out and grabbed the back of his collar, forcefully pulling him back.

"Sister-in-law! Don't stop me! They're practically shitting on our necks!"

Lin Xiulan's face was frosty, and her tone was stern.

"If a mad dog bites you on the street, are you going to crawl on the ground and bite back? Put your fists away! Don't you think things are chaotic enough already?!"

Monkey Three's neck turned red, and the veins on his forehead throbbed. In the end, he could only retreat back into the house unwillingly.

The north wind was pouring in through the cracks in the door.

Lin Xiulan stood in the windy spot and looked up at the sky.

The sky in the distance was hazy and gray.

Fortunately, it's still just light snowflakes, but once they land on the road, they're already turning into thin ice.

The radio station said the blizzard was coming on strong and was clearly not going to end easily.

The atmosphere inside the room was extremely somber.

Qian Shouyi sat in the armchair at the back, holding an enamel teacup in both hands, shaking his head and sighing repeatedly.

"Sister-in-law, it's like God isn't giving us any help. The weather station has already issued a warning; once this blizzard hits, it won't melt for at least three to five days."

"Your new store opening has run into a brick wall. Forcing it open will only waste your labor."

The room was filled with the scent of fresh pine wood, and the counter was covered with gleaming, top-quality mountain products.

The old carpenter squatted in the corner, puffing on his pipe, looking worried.

Chen Meili stood in front of the abacus, at a loss, flipping through the account books.

Lin Xiulan, who was already in a bad mood, suddenly remembered Lu Qingshan's absurd suggestion that night.

He immediately smiled.

"There's always a way out. Since we can't open for business, let's start by building momentum!"

Amidst the surprised gazes of the crowd, Lin Xiulan dialed the number back.

"Master Zhao, I won't refund your deposit."

The apologetic voice on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped.

Lin Xiulan continued.

"Not only will I not refund your deposit, I'll also give you an extra thirty yuan."

"Get all your lion dance troupe's equipment ready, and have everyone stay home and stand by."

"As soon as the snow stops and the roads are cleared, even if I call this in the middle of the night, you all have to get to Zhongshan Road immediately and make a big fuss!"

Upon hearing that the order hadn't been lost and that he could even get extra money, Mr. Zhao naturally nodded repeatedly and readily agreed on the other end of the phone.

"Don't worry, boss, I'll arrange it right away. Just give me a call, and I'll bring my men over!"

"May it be a prosperous and thriving success!"

Lin Xiulan dialed the number of the firecracker shop in the north of the city again.

"Hey? Old Li? I'm not backing out on tomorrow's firecrackers. Not only that, but you're doubling the original 100,000, making it 200,000!"

"The fuse is susceptible to moisture, so you've worked hard these past few days wrapping it tightly with kraft paper and moisture-proof cloth!"

"I'll keep your deposit in full, plus a twenty-yuan tip. I only have one request: once the snow stops and the roads are clear, I'll tell you, you and your people will set off these two hundred thousand firecrackers in front of the shop!"

After hanging up the phone, the room was so quiet you could hear everyone breathing.

No one could understand Lin Xiulan's actions.

Chen Meili scratched her head.

"Sister, even if the snow stops, what's the point of a warm market if we can't restock our mountain produce? Everyone wants to buy directly; we can't sell our damp goods..."

Qian Shouyi held the teacup in mid-air, and after a moment's hesitation, he began to speak.

"Sister-in-law, are you wasting money? Why are you spending so much money on something so snowy?"

"Even if the snow stops, people might not go out immediately! If you keep them on standby all the time, how much more money will that cost?"

Monkey Three slapped his thigh in frustration: "Sister-in-law! The little cash we have can't withstand this kind of financial turmoil!"

"If this snow continues for a week, are we going to have to pay them extra wages?"

Lin Xiulan walked to the counter and pointed to the wind and snow outside.

"We have no foothold in the provincial capital; this is the first physical retail store for Xiushan mountain products. Therefore, not only can we not back down from the opening celebrations, but we must make it even more spectacular than originally planned!"

"I want everyone on Zhongshan Road to know that Xiushan Industry has plenty of confidence! While other shops are still recovering after the snow stops, we'll be the loudest one!"

"It will attract the attention of the entire city."

Chen Meili bit her lower lip.

"Sister-in-law, even if we manage to save the grand opening, what about those two hundred pounds of fresh monkey head mushrooms and other miscellaneous items in the warehouse?"

"If it gets damp for three days in a row, it will all go bad. We don't have much to sell."

Seeing that the client paid the bill so readily, the old carpenter chimed in, "Master, hurry up and move all those fresh goods into the underground cellar! The temperature there is constant, they'll last a few more days!"

Lin Xiulan glanced at the sky and decided to get to work first.

She turned her head and looked at the anxious-looking men.

"Chen Meili!"

"Why!"

"Take the money and go to the supply and marketing cooperative on the corner to buy ten bundles of waterproof tarpaulin! Seal all the dry goods that are susceptible to moisture inside and out!"

"Monkey Three!"

"exist!"

"Bring two strong laborers and move all the fresh goods from the warehouse, not a single basket touching the ground! Bring them to the front counter!"

Monkey Three stood there, completely bewildered.

"Sister-in-law, why did you move to the front? There's no stove there, and the wind will freeze everything solid!"

Lin Xiulan took out a large bundle of pre-cut yellow kraft paper from under the counter and slammed it heavily onto the table.

"Cut and sort all the fresh produce for me. Take a little of each, and wrap them into small packets of one ounce each using this kraft paper!"

The men looked at each other, completely unable to follow Lin Xiulan's train of thought.

Qian Shouyi stepped forward and touched the brown paper.

"Sister-in-law, are you trying to break it down into smaller portions? But with the roads blocked by heavy snow, who are you going to sell it to? Who's going to brave the freezing cold to buy just a few ounces?"

"One or two ounces will be gone in one meal."

Lin Xiulan raised her head and looked directly at Qian Shouyi.

"Mr. Qian, who said I was going to sell?"

The room was completely silent.

Monkey Three stammered, "Not...not for sale? Sister-in-law, that's top-quality stuff we bought from Changbai Mountain at real money!"

Lin Xiulan ignored Hou San, bent down and took out a small cardboard box from the bottom drawer of the counter.

Inside, there was a thick stack of business cards neatly arranged.

Lin Xiulan took out a business card and handed it to Qian Shouyi.

"Mr. Qian, please take a look."

Qian Shouyi took the business card with a look of suspicion and read it aloud.

"Xiushan Industrial... No. 108 Zhongshan Road... 99 yuan annual package?"
