Chapter 447: Ergency Rescue_1
Today, everyone at the Elegant Pavilion, from Tang Feng and Qin Yanan down, was insanely busy.
Tang Feng managed to find ti in his hectic schedule to go out and buy so baozi for lunch.
After gobbling them down, everyone threw themselves back into work.
They were busy from morning until after ten at night.
It was only when Tang Feng saw that everyone was at their limit that he personally stepped in to persuade the custors who were still queuing, promising them priority service the next day, that they reluctantly left.
Otherwise, they might have had to battle through the night.
...
“My God, am I still alive? Why do I feel like I’ve turned into a zombie?” As soon as all the custors had left, Ge Hui collapsed onto the floor and didn’t want to move an inch further.
The other employees lay sprawled out in all directions, too exhausted to even complain.
“Everyone worked hard today,” Qin Yanan said, thanking everyone in spite of her own fatigue.
Normally, everyone would exchange pleasantries.
But today, they didn’t even want to utter “It’s not hard work” because it truly was.
“I’ve got good news for everyone. Our daily turnover reached two hundred million, with a net profit of one hundred million.”
Qin Yanan then announced the day’s turnover.
Indeed, this group of money-lovers perked up at the ntion of cash and straightened their bodies.
“Oh, my God, we made a hundred million in one day? This is what you call making a fortune!”
“All the credit goes to our Boss Tang. You should have seen how crazy those custors were about him.”
“Yeah, these people are too rich. As long as it’s an antique appraised by Boss Tang, they don’t even look at the price, just swipe their card.”
“I received a custor who asked how much stock we had in the store and wanted to buy it all. I told him there was a limit of three items per person. He said he would co back tomorrow.”
“Goodness, did these people get their money from a windfall?”
“I only found out today how many rich people there are in Zhonghai…”
When they recalled the bizarre custors they’d encountered during the day, everyone began to laugh and chat.
It was a bit of fun amid the hardship.
But Qin Yanan was concerned about sothing else. Turning to Tang Feng, she said, “Tomorrow, the number of custors will probably be even greater.”
Tang Feng nodded in agreent.
Due to the ti wasted by Zhao Quande and his group in the morning, it wasn’t until almost eleven o’clock that the business officially started.
If they opened earlier tomorrow, turnover could reach new heights.
Moreover, with today’s events—the one-man battle against eighteen senior appraisers—likely spreading throughout the antique world, it was foreseeable that tomorrow’s custor flow would reach a terrifying scale. They had to develop coping strategies in advance, or they might be overwheld.
“Let’s not think about that now. Everyone has had a busy day and is both tired and hungry. Let’s go out for a al first, then we can all get a massage to relax.”
“Yay…”
A group of employees imdiately revived, laughing and walking out together.
Their happiness was simple. Unlike Tang Feng and Qin Yanan, who made a fortune in a day, they were content with a little luxury after a busy day.
That evening, Tang Feng and Qin Yanan took their staff to the most luxurious Western restaurant nearby for a big al.
Then they had massages, and finally, they booked a room for each person at the nearest five-star hotel to the Elegant Pavilion.
For employees who had never stayed in a five-star hotel before, this was a huge surprise. They were so excited that they jumped around, took endless photos, and posted them on their social circles,
Tang Feng and Qin Yanan worried whether this might backfire. Would these guys get so excited that they wouldn’t be able to sleep all night? How would they work the next day?
But regardless, spending a little money to win hearts was well worth it for two shrewd businesspeople who had made a small goal in one day.
Since the two of them didn’t live far away, they didn’t waste the money and just went ho.
But they had more concerns and couldn’t go to sleep imdiately.
Tomorrow’s business was sure to be booming, and they needed to make arrangents in advance.
So, they both used all their connections, urgently rallying people to help.
And it couldn’t just be anyone; they needed people with so understanding of antiques, who could start working imdiately without training.
Tang Feng first contacted Zhou Bingrui.
The Zhou Family also had antique stores and should be able to send a few people over on short notice.
When Zhou Bingrui heard his call for help, he couldn’t help but tease, “Mr. Tang, that’s a bit Versailles. While other antique stores are empty, yours is so busy you need to borrow staff from others—that’s quite infuriating, isn’t it?”
“I can’t help it. Though I expected it to be busy, I didn’t anticipate this level of frenzy. It’s an ergency, please help out, I’ll treat you to a big al when things settle down.”
“Heh, you think a big al will do the trick? No way, you have to rember this favor; I might need it soti in the future.”
“No problem, not just one favor, I owe you ten or eight if you need.”
“That’s more like it. Rest assured, our family has three antique stores; I’ll have them all closed tomorrow and send everyone to help you out.”
“Isn’t that a bit unnecessary? I don’t want to impact on your family’s business because of .”
“What business? You think other antique stores are like yours? At our stores, we barely sell a few pieces in a day. The staff are so idle they’re swatting flies. If they don’t get so work, they’d be collecting wages for doing nothing.”
“Alright then, thanks a lot.”
“Still so formal with ? Feeling like an outsider, huh?”
After a few more words of small talk, they hung up the phone.
Tang Feng then contacted Shen Tianyan, who had helped him out of a bind with the jade bracelet last ti; he still owed him a favor.
After hearing the situation, Shen Tianyan also agreed to send support the next day.
Tang Feng originally considered contacting Ouyang Yushan.
But after thinking it over, he didn’t make the call.
A connection like Ouyang Yushan’s should be saved for critical monts.
There was no need to spend such favors on trivial matters.
With the support from Zhou Bingrui and Shen Tianyan, plus the people Qin Yanan contacted, it should just be enough.
