After finalizing plans with Old Niu, Jiang Changhai went straight back to the city.
There were three days left until the store opened, and Jiang Changhai still had a lot to prepare.
He commissioned a signboard with the na of the supermarket as "Old Jiang Family Departnt Store."
This na was decided by the three brothers together—simple, easy to rember, and friendly.
After ordering the signboard, he contacted Tang Lin’s employees here to have them start delivering goods to the warehouse, among other tasks.
The opening day was a weekend, a date Jiang Changhai chose deliberately.
Because most people in the county had the weekend off and many parents would bring their children out shopping—and also because his wife and daughter were off, so they could co by too.
The three brothers set off the fireworks they had prepared, creating a lively and festive atmosphere. Before long, a crowd gathered outside to watch the commotion.
Jiang Changhai had chosen an excellent location, close to several factories, where many people passed by on their way to and from work.
People who had passed by earlier had already noticed the renovations and preparations for opening. Today, hearing the sound of fireworks, they curiously stopped to watch.
The supermarket Jiang Changhai rented was a large storefront. He specifically hired soone to repaint the exterior walls, and the Third Branch couple thoroughly cleaned the inside and outside.
Inside, there were new glass counters Jiang Changhai had bought, neatly filled with various daily necessities. Behind the counters were brand-new shelves stocked with items not even available at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
Just standing outside, looking at this spacious and bright supermarket, you could feel the obvious difference from the cooperative.
The crowd outside, intrigued by this stylish supermarket, hesitated to enter. They were used to buying from the cooperative or street stalls, and suddenly there was this high-end supermarket, which made them worry the items inside might be too expensive for them to afford.
Seeing so many people gathered outside, Jiang Changhai and the others ca out smiling to invite them in.
"Comrades, don’t pass this up just by! Today is the grand opening of our Old Jiang Family Departnt Store. Everything inside is cheaper than at the cooperative. Co in and take a look, I guarantee you won’t be ripped off or cheated."
"Yes, yes, comrades, co in and have a look. It doesn’t matter if you don’t buy anything, just co and show so support," Sun Lixia chid in.
Even though they heard this, none of the onlookers were willing to be the first to enter and try it out.
"Eldest, why isn’t anyone coming in?" The Jiang family mbers were anxious seeing no one entering to shop.
Jiang Changhai was not overly worried: "That’s understandable. After all, ours is the only supermarket in the entire county. It’s normal for them to be a bit hesitant."
Just as the Jiang family was worrying about their empty supermarket, the Deputy County Head walked in.
Seeing the Deputy County Head, Jiang Changhai enthusiastically greeted him: "Deputy County Head, it’s an honor to have you here, sorry for not welcoming you from afar. Please have a look around, if you need anything, our products are all sourced from Yang City, excellent quality and fair prices."
"No need to attend to , I’ll just look around myself, you carry on with your work," the Deputy County Head said kindly.
Jiang Changhai, being straightforward, replied: "Alright, take your ti looking around."
But Jiang Changtao stayed behind the Deputy County Head, ready to assist him at any ti, hoping to leave a good impression.
