Chapter 145 -145: Clothing Store Opening Event

“Oh my gosh, this is just too good. You can’t even try things on at the Department Store, and sometimes you also have to put up with the salesclerks’ nagging.”

“Exactly, every time I go, buying clothes should be a happy occasion, but I end up getting lectured.”

Susu’s smile, showing eight neat teeth, remained unchanged as she beckoned, “Yang Yu, come over and take the customers inside to have a look.”

“Okay.”

Yang Yu swallowed nervously, pinched herself, and then approached with a smile.

“Ladies, please come inside. Feel free to try on anything you like.”

The group of women looked at each other, pleasantly surprised, and followed her inside.

People love a crowd. Seeing the activity here, many others curiously made their way over as well.

In no time, the store was packed.

Su Chenghe and Xiao Sun had also arrived early to help. They worked on commission like everyone else, taking five percent of each sale.

Although neither of them had undergone any training, both were seasoned sales professionals. The store had conveniently pre-labeled all items with their prices. They just needed to be careful not to let anyone steal anything.

It’s not that there were definitely thieves; it was just a precaution.

“Oh my, this piece of clothing costs 15 yuan? That’s expensive.” A woman complained, frowning.

“Comrade, all our garments are fashionable styles directly from the big city of Yangcheng, and the quality is guaranteed. There’s nothing wrong with us women scrimping and saving for our kids and husbands, and then treating ourselves to some nice clothes,” Susu said with a smile.

The woman gritted her teeth and stomped her foot, “You’re right. I’ve been slaving away for this family, living frugally, and turned myself into an ugly duckling. It’s just a piece of clothing, why can’t I wear it?”

“Yeah, sister, in the end, we women skimp and save only to be scorned by men for becoming ugly ducklings. What’s the point?

It’s better to spend the money on ourselves. Plus, our store is offering a 20% discount today. The piece of clothing you’re looking at will be 12 yuan after the discount, a direct saving of three yuan.”

“Alright, I’ll take it. Get me a new one.”

Susu quickly fetched a new piece, packed it up, recorded the sale, and handed over the change to the lady.

“Here’s your change, sister. We welcome you back any time.”

“Hey, your shop might be a bit pricey, but the service is really nice. I’ll go home and spread the word to the neighbors.”

“Oh, that’d be so kind of you, sister. If you bring someone with you next time, I’ll directly give you a silk scarf, a gift we only offer with a single purchase over thirty. I’ll pay out of my own pocket to give it to you.”

“That’s great. You can count on me; I’ll bring people over right away.” The lady left with a smile, hurrying off.

Susu turned to a man with a smile in his dark eyes and blinked in surprise, “When did you get here?”

“Cough, I arrived when you were talking about the ugly duckling,” Lu Xiaoting said with a plaintive look at his wife.

Susu let out a dry laugh, “Hey, I was just going along with what the lady said. It’s all sales talk; you can’t take it seriously, or I’ll have to complain to mother-in-law.”

Lu Xiaoting couldn’t help but laugh and cry—so it was all his fault, inside and out?

If Mrs. Lu knew what her son was thinking, she would definitely nod vigorously, as if pounding garlic. Of course, it’d be his fault.

“I brought some food over, guessing you guys would be busy today,” Lu Xiaoting motioned to the net bag he was holding.

Susu nodded, “Okay, go and have a seat. We’ll join you soon.”

Susu checked her wristwatch and realized it was already noon.

After the last customer left, everyone could finally sit down for a break.

Xiao Sun tilted his head back and gulped down a pot of water, “This whole morning’s been busy. Seems like everyone’s got money to spend, throwing around tens and tens.

I’d probably hesitate to spend, still prefer to save and have the old tailor make it cheaper. Though, I would buy something for my wife and child.”

Susu found it amusing; this one was really quite considerate of his wife.

“Brother Zhang, how are Yang Yu and Xiao Xia doing? Are they adjusting well to the morning shift?”

“Doing okay,” Brother Zhang nodded.

“Sister Su, we were a bit embarrassed at first, but as we served more people, we gradually got used to it.”

“Yes, now when people come, I dare to go up and serve them directly, and I offer suggestions to the customers based on their body shape and preferences.”

The two girls’ faces were flushed with excitement.

Susu nodded, “Good, after you’ve finished eating, find a place to take a break. We have a tough battle to face this afternoon.”

“Yes, we understand, Sister Su.”

“Did you come directly here or did you go home first?”

“I came straight here.”

Lu Xiaoting shook his head, casually putting away the lunch boxes, “The three little ones were fussing to come along this morning. If I had gone back, they would’ve surely kicked up a fuss looking for their mother. Better to wait until after work to go back.”

Susu smiled and shook her head; the triplets were restless at home, having gotten used to coming to the store with her the past few days.

With the opening of the store, it definitely wouldn’t be manageable if the kids weren’t watched closely… Susu didn’t want to take the risk, naturally, she didn’t dare bring the children with her to the store.

In the afternoon, quite a few people heard from friends and relatives that this clothing store had pretty clothes and was running promotions. Spending over thirty would even get you a silk scarf, so lots of women came in groups.

Looking at the wide array of clothes, shoes, and various beautiful accessories in the store, they couldn’t help but stop and browse.

Susu and the others in the store began another round of busy work.

“Comrade, do you also have watches here?”

A woman pointed at the watches inside the display case and asked.

Xiao Sun quickly took out a watch, “Comrade, you have really good taste, these are the fashionable electronic watches from Yangcheng. They’re cheaper and more fashionable than the ordinary watches we had before. Would you like to try one on?”

“Can I really try it on?”

The woman was somewhat surprised.

“Yes, you can. We can only know if you like it by trying it on.”

Xiao Sun said while handing the watch to the woman.

The young woman was thrilled as she put it on, immediately calling her sister-in-law who was looking at clothes to help see how it looked on her.

“It looks good, how much is this watch? Is it expensive?”

“This is an electronic watch, priced uniformly at 15 yuan.”

“My, that’s quite a bit cheaper than the ones in the Department Store. Let me try it on too.”

Xiao Sun watched the two of them try on the electronic watches with a smile, while keeping an eye on other customers selecting items at the counter.

In the end, both the sisters-in-law each bought one, attracting other customers to follow suit and leading to several sales.

“Big sister, big sister, I brought our neighbors over. They took a liking to the clothes I bought this morning, so I figured I’d bring them over to take a look.”

The speaker was the same elder sister who had come in the morning.

Susu greeted the group with a beaming smile, “Please feel free to look around, comrades. You are welcome to try anything you like. Today, all our products in the store are twenty percent off.”

“Great, great.”

A few women whispered to each other, “Why are these sales clerks so nice?”

“They’re opening their doors for business, not like those people in the Department Store, who look down their noses at us.”

The elder sister who made purchases in the morning pursed her lips.
