Chapter 302 - Who are they and why are they referring to me as sister-in-law? (1)

Their activities were going up and up. It was the biggest promotional activity since Shu Yan had started her shop. Many of those who were just window shopping on the street with no intention of buying would come and check it out when they saw all the people and ended up buying an item or two on their way out. Partly because the clothes at Shu Yan’s shop were pretty and partly because they were of high quality. They felt that being able to buy them at the current price was a steal.

Using this opportunity, Shu Yan also brought over the overstocked fall underwear from Lao Zhang’s to get rid of them.

Along with them were also some not-too-popular casual household wears and a lot of them were gone as well. She was able to kill multiple birds with one stone.

Every time a customer walked inside, she would give them a flyer letting them know that they would be moving across the street. There will be a lot of activities then and that they could refer to the flyer for details. Regardless of whether they made any purchases, they could still come for the lion-dancing show and there would be celebrity singers and awesome prices for the raffle.

Chinese always like liveliness. When a boutique was going to sink so much money on their grand opening, everybody who heard of it expressed that they would for sure be there when the time came.

Two days later, about 80% of the clothes had been sold. Shu Yan wasn’t worried about the remaining ones. She already had an idea for them.

That night, Shu Yan tallied up her sales. She made over 15,000 yuan yesterday and over 17,000 yuan today. That was over 30,000 yuan altogether. 10,000 yuan or so of them were gross profit.

By the third day, everything had been emptied out. Truth was, she already had a new cash register and couch for her new shop but she wasn’t going to leave these behind for the landlady. She had gotten rid of the cash register for cheap and gave the couch to Zhang Huaxiu, who said she would bring it back home.

Chen Fei brought his men over and knocked down the two dressing rooms. They were about to knock down the glass wall when the landlord came over with his wife and daughter to check out the shop. He quickly came up to stop them when he witnessed that.

“What are you doing here? Have I said anything when you knocked down my wall before? Why are you knocking down the glass wall right now? Do you know that what you are doing is against the law?”

“I am returning it back to its original state, can’t you tell? Don’t worry, I will put the wall back up after we have taken down the glass wall. Look, all the bricks had already been brought over. Its quality is guaranteed. These are all experts in the field. They do good work.”

Both the landlord and landlady were speechless. Yangyang looked over at Shu Yan and said, “You are too petty.”

“How are you calling me petty? I am restoring everything back to its original state. How’s that petty? Do you know how much I am spending here? I just want to make sure that everything was followed through to completion.” Shu Yan disagreed with her.

When the landlady walked inside and saw that the dressing rooms had been knocked down, she was so angry that she was shaking. “We’ve paid you 90,000 yuan.”

“That’s the penalty for breaching the contract. Did I do anything that breaches the contract? If you have any problems with this, feel free to call the cops.” Shu Yan rolled her eyes at them and had the workers carried on.

The landlord and landlady could do nothing but stood there and watched Shu Yan had the glass wall knocked down and started on the brick wall.

“Alright, alright. Stop with it already. I’ll jus chalk it up to bad luck. Just leave. You don’t need to do anything else.” The landlady quickly tried to stop them. They would need to hire someone else to take the wall back down again after they had put it back up.

“I can’t do that. It’s all spelled out in the contract. I am required to restore this place to its original state.” That was what the landlady had said so herself when Shu Yan went and asked her about having the wall knocked down previously.

With so many of Shu Yan’s workers here, the landlord and his family dared not make any moves but to watch them stack the bricks up one by one.
