Chapter 369 Raffle
Thus, they were a bit at ease when he changed the topic, after all, what were they going to say in case the matter was dragged on a little more?
Shen Li heaved a sigh of relief inwardly as he looked at Chu Chang and answered, ” Yes, Dong Dong, sent us here.” He showed the documents that Yu Dong has given to them and showed them to Chu Chang before he continued, ” Dong Dong, said that she wants us to take over the strawberry sales matter with you. Since she is busy looking for a storefront in the town.”
Chu Chang nodded. “It’s good that you two are the ones taking over, it will be much more easy for me to deal with you than Yu Dong.” When their expression changed a little, he smiled and waved his hands hurriedly. ” Oh please, don’t overthink. It’s just that if she and I continued to meet, even if we did that in broad daylight, people will come up with ridiculous rumours, now that I am divorced and she is a woman. With you two overtaking her work, it will help me a lot… at least the villagers would shut their mouths before the matter escalates.”
Shen Li and Ye Liu nodded after they listened to Chu Chang, wasn’t it because of a small meeting in the forest that Fang Chi and Yu Dong’s matter was escalated beyond repair. Now that they thought it like this, they were a bit more at ease maybe Yu Dong purposely sent them here because she was afraid of inciting another trouble. Not that Fang Chi was a trouble.
Their expression turned awkward and Chu Chang raised his brows looking at their sudden change in expression and then thought about what he said and a small while later smiled knowingly. ” Don’t worry I won’t tell Fang Chi.”
”I didn’t mean to!”
” I was just thinking it in a general way.”
Shen Li and Ye Liu simultaneously shouted making Chu Chang laugh. ” Oh so, you were indeed thinking about him, the two exchanged a look with each other and then turned silent. At this moment, they knew they couldn’t say anything because it will only mess the situation up for them.
Chu Chang did not make fun of them for a long and then quickly returned to his serious business mode as he turned to Ye Liu. ” Can you bring the box to the top cabinet of the cabinet behind you?”
Ye Liu stood up and walked to the cabinet before pulling the top drawer of the cabinet and picking up the wooden box that was sitting inside it and bringing it to Chu Chang who thanked him and took the box from his hands and pulled out the papers he has placed inside it.
” Well, let’s see… I have discussed the arrangements with Dong Dong, I hope that she gave you a review of them.” He asked as he looked through the papers and carefully assessed the parts that were already discussed.
” She did,” answered Ye Liu as he raised the papers in his hands. ” We did note down the important parts, and if I am right you two were discussing the marketing strategy at the moment.”
” You are right,” said Chu Chang as he placed the papers in front of him and flipped to the part where he had written the plan for the market strategy. ” I was thinking about first baiting the customers through some discount offers, given the free samples option won’t work with the ones in the capital, some will be willing to buy after having a taste but there are some who will just go around the shop testing the samples complaining how they aren’t enough given their small size. There is no shortage of crooks, you see and because a mer will be in charge of the shop it will only make them take it lightly.”
” That’s why I only want to focus on buyers who are genuinely interested in buying our goods instead of creating trouble, what do you have to say?”
While he was explaining the even let Shen Li and Ye Liu take a look at the business plans he came up with. With just one look at his detailed plans and counter plans in case of failure, Shen Li and Ye Liu knew that Chu Chang wasn’t someone easily fooled. If he wasn’t a mer and a naive one to fall for a jerk like Mu Yuxi, he might have made a name for himself.
”The plans are amazing but I still think that just adding a discount option won’t work,” said Shen Li after carefully reading through Chu Chang’s plan. Because this was something that his wife has entrusted to his care he was willing to take proper measures to make sure that the shop was a success.
” Then what do you have in mind?” asked Chu Chang sounding curious.
”Discounts are not rare and maybe people will think that we aren’t selling fresh goods because that’s what most people do right? Using discount to clear up the trash in their shops,” chimed Ye Liu as he took a look at the papers before his mind lit up with an idea and he exclaimed. ” Why not put a raffle?”
” A raffle?” echoed Chu Chang. ” What’s that?”
Ye Liu touched his nose realising that he used a term that Yu Dong told him about and then awkwardly said, ” it’s something I came up with last night, if you don’t mind I can tell you more about it? I don’t know whether or not you will like it though but hey you can hear me out, right?”
