Chapter 2096: Build a Children’s Amusement Center
Once they saw that someone had been fired, the others bit back their complaints.
Ning Shu didn’t plan to immediately open the door for business, anyway. Since there were no customers, they might as well reorganize.
Ning Shu promised the clerks twice their salary in the next two days.
She planned to build a children’s amusement center. The amusement center could attract kids and if adults came with them, they would probably visit the stores.
That, and the amusement center would also be profitable.
As for whether it would work or not, she could only try.
Ning Shu knocked down the walls of several vacant shops to make space for a relatively large amusement center.
Fortunately, the money she was given by Mother Wen was enough to cover her immediate expenses.
Ning Shu’s actions were reported to the company by the store manager. Father Wen didn’t comment on her actions and allowed her to mess around.
The store would be shut down in the latter half of the year anyways. Her messing around just meant wasting her own money, so Father Wen didn’t care.
Ning Shu silently watched the store manager give the report.
“What did my dad say?” Ning Shu asked expressionlessly.
The store manager looked embarrassed. “The chairman said to let you take charge.”
“Manager Li, you are still a manager here. If this store is torn down, your role once you return to the company will be nowhere as comfortable as this one. Even if you returned to the company and were sent somewhere else, you’d be unfamiliar there,” Ning Shu said gently.
Manager Li nodded. “I want this store to succeed more than anyone else.”
“Then, Manager Li, I ask you to support my work. The employees below don’t know me, so I will have to trouble you.” Ning Shu stared at the construction team. “There’ll definitely be more profit.”
“Don’t worry.”
Truckloads and truckloads of goods were brought to the front of the store warehouse. Employees unloaded the goods from the truck and then placed them on the shelves.
Ning Shu chose high-quality and cheap products this time, though some were more expensive. The reason that the sales in this place weren’t good was because the shopping malls nearby had already exhausted the consumption ability of the locals.
With Ning Shu’s reassurance, Manager Li stopped procrastinating.
Ning Shu was busy with the Huaxin store and didn’t check the time until the evening. Mother Wen called to ask her to come back quickly. She said that the Tang family had come to negotiate her marriage with Tang Yu.
When Ning Shu heard this, she was stunned. She brushed the sawdust from her clothes, covered her ears, and left the store. “What are you talking about?”
“Hurry back, and pick your wedding day,” Mother Wen said.
Ning Shu asked, “Tang Yu agrees?”
“Why wouldn’t he? You’ve been engaged for several years, it’s time to get married. Don’t worry about your pet project, come back quickly!” Mother Wen repeatedly asked her to come back.
Ning Shu rolled her eyes and asked, “Does Tang Yu know the date is being set?”
“Of course! Your Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang will be here tomorrow. Come back quickly so you can clean yourself up and make yourself look more beautiful,” Mother Wen said.
“Then Tang Yu isn’t coming?” Ning Shu asked.
“I heard that the company is busy. Maybe he’ll come, maybe he won’t.”
The frick~~~~
Ning Shu hung up the phone, and it rang again. The caller ID said ‘Tang Yu’. Ning Shu rolled her eyes again. She had a feeling this wasn’t about anything good and so she let the phone ring for a while before answering.
“Wen Hanlei… ” Tang Yu called out Ning Shu’s name and then paused.
Why call just to linger?
Tang Yu immediately said, “Wen Hanlei, I think our marriage should be delayed.”
“Why?” Ning Shu’s voice was abnormally harsh. “I’m already an old lady. How much more of this ma’am’s youth are you going to waste?”
