Chapter 220 The Rhythm of Pretending to Be B...
Afternoon, Hanshui City Central Square.
Cities in other worlds seem to like to build a square in the center to place symbolic items of the city, as well as to connect various main roads, etc. Let’s not discuss whether this design is reasonable or not. An obvious effect of this is that there are always many people in the central square at any time, many people... The large flow of people not only means crowding, but also means business opportunities. Shops in city squares are always the most profitable, there is no doubt about this. Therefore, various business families are keen to own a piece of land here. In addition to making profits, this has another more important meaning. You must know that opening a store here is not only a symbol of wealth, but also a symbol of status.
Since it is so important, it goes without saying that the land here is naturally hard to find.
This is actually the case, but just to the east of the city square, a three-story pavilion stands proudly. Not to mention how magnificent it looks on the outside, just looking at its area that is several times larger than the neighboring shops, it is enough to instantly attract thousands of shocked, envious and jealous looks, and make people involuntarily smell the strong smell of gold coins.
At this time, in front of the loft, there was indeed a young man who was shocked. He stared at the signboard that should be pure gold - "Yatang Shop", his eyes were dull and his body was stiff.
This performance was noticed by others, and coupled with his ordinary coarse cloth clothes, he naturally had the most obvious image of a country bumpkin who had never seen the world. In fact, many people who go in and out of shops do think so, and they often feel a sense of superiority that arises spontaneously in their hearts.
But what they didn't know was that there was no sense of envy in this young man's heart, but a feeling of ecstasy akin to a windfall falling on the head. Yes, this person is Tang En. If we look at the contract, he is the real owner of this shop.
"What the hell!"
After coming back to his senses, Tang En expressed his surprise word by word. Yes, Tang En knew that the Yatang Chamber of Commerce should be very profitable. This could be seen from the previous attitude of the nobles in Liva City towards Allen. But that was just a fantasy after all. It wasn't until he faced this domineering three-story attic in the city that Tang En truly felt the huge wealth within it.
No wonder Burney answered so simply before. With this store standing in this location all day long, it's strange that it can't be remembered by others. Tang En pinched his chin and once again admired the gold-lettered signboard of Yatang Shop. He kept sighing in his heart. He was about to lose his temper. He had no more pursuits in life... Hear the sound... A horse neighed, and Tang En He subconsciously stepped aside. Turning around, he saw a rather gorgeous carriage parked where he had been standing just now. The driver was tightening the reins with a frightened look on his face, trying his best to contain the carriage's forward momentum.
Fortunately, the horses were very good-looking, and with the efforts of the driver, they stopped quickly.
"Huh...are you deaf? What are you doing here? You can't even hear me. Can you afford to pay for the carriage being damaged?" The coachman turned his head, let out a long breath, and then cursed loudly.
Tang En touched his nose. Just now he was looking at the signboard of Yatang Store in a daze, and he didn't notice the shouting at all. However, this is still at the entrance of the shop, not on the road.
"Bang!" The car door opened, and a young woman's face with heavy makeup appeared, her expression a little ugly: "What's going on?"
The driver was a little frightened and immediately pointed at Tang En and explained what had just happened. With Tang En's ears, he could naturally hear the embarrassment inside. However, he was really in a good mood now and had no intention of arguing. He simply bowed and apologized: "Sorry, I was distracted just now and I really didn't hear the shouting. Please forgive me."
The gorgeous woman glanced at Tang En, frowned, then looked at the Yatang Chamber of Commerce, which was just around the corner, and said impatiently: "Hey, forget it, it's really unlucky. It's bad luck when you go out..."
Bang, even though the car door was closed, the faint sound of "met a bumpkin" could still be heard from behind. Then another deep man's voice came out, as if he was comforting.
"Hmph, you're lucky." The coachman glanced at Tang En with disdain, then drove slowly to the side. Looking at the posture, it seems that he has to stop here.
Tang En shook his head, didn't take it to heart, and strode into the shop.
Although Yatang Chamber of Commerce made its fortune from washing machines, it is naturally impossible for a shop to sell only one kind of product. Therefore, on the first floor, there is a dazzling array of products, all available. Generally speaking, they are all more lifestyle-oriented, and the quality is not low.
Tang En was not in a hurry to find the person in charge here. He planned to walk around the shop first. Well, it felt good to walk around as the owner... There were many customers in the shop and it seemed very busy. So when Tang En came in, there were no extra service staff to come forward to introduce him. But if you want to ask where there are the most people here, it is undoubtedly the east area. There are neatly arranged washing machines, which look very spectacular.
It's all mine, it's all money... Tang En touched the civet cat logo on the washing machine, barely leaving any saliva.
"Wow, there are so many people here." His voice was very artificial and made people's hair stand on end.
"Of course, this is the Yatang Chamber of Commerce." The deep male voice said with a very envious tone, "If my business group can be half of this, no, even one-tenth of the size, I will be satisfied."
"Well, honey, you will definitely do it."
"Haha, I hope. If this negotiation is successful and we get the right to sell 500 washing machines... forget it, let's not talk about it for now. Well, take a look at the washing machine, haven't you been clamoring to buy it?"
"Okay, okay...you don't know how cold the water is now, and it hurts your hands."
"Huh? Isn't there a servant doing laundry?"
"But other people's homes have washing machines..."
Tang En's ears twitched, and he felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. He turned around and saw that the gorgeous woman just now was holding a fat middle-aged and elderly man who looked like a wealthy businessman, and kept acting coquettishly.
This age, coupled with the contrast in body shape, made Tang En feel a chill in his heart.
Probably feeling the gaze, the gorgeous woman turned around and immediately frowned when she saw Tang En. Then he rolled his eyes, fanned his nose, and continued coquettishly: "Dear, let's go to the second floor. These are ordinary washing machines. And everyone here can smell the earthy smell. It's really disgusting." No."
"Huh?" The wealthy businessman was stunned when he heard this and hesitated a little.
There is a huge price gap between ordinary washing machines and high-end washing machines, which are usually aimed at aristocrats, such as Philip's previous one.
"Take me there quickly... Oh, you only accompany me for more than ten days a year, and you still haven't agreed to my request, you..." This gorgeous woman is a good actor, and her previous eager expression instantly turned into a calm one. Looking like she's about to cry.
This wealthy businessman obviously liked this. How could a man refuse his woman's request? He held her in his arms and said domineeringly: "Let's go, let's go to the second floor."
"Yeah, I love you the most..." In just a second, the tears in her eyes magically disappeared. The gorgeous woman grabbed the wealthy businessman's arm, regained her smile, and then walked towards the stairs inside. When she turned around, she didn't forget to give Tang En Leaving a look of contempt.
This... Tang En touched his nose, a little confused about whether to laugh or cry. I provoked you, didn't I just dress shabbily, but as for finding a sense of superiority over me? But having said that, this rhythm is a bit familiar... Well, Tang En pinched his chin, yes, isn't this the scene in contemporary novels where the protagonist pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger, and ends up being slapped in the face that he likes to see? Tsk tsk, this is the rhythm of showing off, hahaha... I have to say that the prosperity of Yatang's shop in front of him makes Tang En's owner feel a little proud. Instead of irritating him, the beautiful woman's behavior made him drift into fantasy...
