Her words were reasonable and accurate; she hadn't said anything wrong. However, she was unaware that Kindness Pharmacy Shop was on the brink of closing down.
The usually cheerful boss had given orders that the shop must quickly turn a profit. Otherwise, Adamu himself would have to pack up and leave. Adamu is currently under a lot of stress.
Just a year ago, he and his wife decided to have a child. Normally, adding a new mber to the family is a joyful event and a warm mont for every household.
Adamu and his wife worked together harmoniously, and in a short ti, they successfully conceived, with everything going smoothly.
However, whether due to genetic factors or sheer luck, unlike so couples who struggle to conceive, they seed to have had too much success. His wife gave birth to quadruplets! And all four babies were boys.
Standing outside the delivery room, when Adamu saw a midwife pushing four identical babies out, he jokingly remarked in the waiting area, wondering who was so capable to have "hit four birds with one stone!"
But when the midwife shouted, "Who is lina Lele's family mber?", Adamu's expression instantly changed. He walked closer to the baby carriage pushed by the midwife, and took a look.
Oh my, these four babies looked exactly like him when he was a child! At that mont, his heart rate shot up to 180 beats per minute.
"I am Lina Lele's husband," Adamu said, his voice trembling, a mix of excitent and a touch of suffocation.
"Congratulations, sir, on the birth of your sons. Such adorable quadruplets! In all my years of delivering babies, this is the first ti I've seen quadruplets. Your wife is in great health, and you're incredibly lucky to have four adorable babies at once," the midwife said sincerely.
Clearly, the midwife was soone who genuinely loved children. However, to Adamu, her well aning words sounded quite different. Four adorable babies?
In Adamu's eyes, these four were anything but adorable they were four money consuming little beasts! In the world of battle pets, due to the extrely high cost of living and most young people's low incos, having and raising children is a very cautious decision.
Moreover, the most daunting part was that all four of Adamu's children were boys, which ant that when they grew up, he would have to buy houses for them to get married.
Just thinking about having to prepare four houses for his four children made Adamu's head spin. For Adamu, the birth of his children was not a delightful surprise but a shocking scare.
From that day on, Adamu stopped spending money recklessly. He declined almost all social activities with only one purpose in mind: to save money.
As the manager of Kindness Pharmacy Shop, he earned a monthly salary of around 5,000, which was considered a high paying job locally.
However, was a 5,000 monthly salary enough to support four children? To be honest, it was very difficult. But he couldn't afford to lose this job because there were no other options.
So, even though he knew that Boss Shahir's performance demands were excessive, he had to accept them and carry them out decisively. This was the bittersweet and helpless reality of a father...
At this mont, even though he knew he was being excessive, he could only grit his teeth and push forward with the boss's demands.
He pointed at Fana Nil and said, "If you want to keep this job, shut your mouth. Otherwise, get out!"
Adamu spoke harshly. Upon hearing this, Fana Nil's tears started to fall. Adamu's life was tough, and so was hers.
After divorcing her husband three years ago, she had been raising her child alone and taking care of her elderly mother. Life was very difficult.
She couldn't afford to lose her job either. After all, the salary from Kindness Pharmacy Shop was not sothing that any other company could easily match.
"Sister Fana, don't say anything more."
"Yes, please don't say anything more."
...
The other sales assistants around also urged her.
Hearing the advice from those around her and reflecting on her own situation, Fana Nil ultimately chose to silently endure. She couldn't afford to leave this job.
As Ethen walked into Kindness Pharmacy Shop, he coincidentally witnessed this scene. He sighed quietly upon hearing the exchange.
"Why must workers make things difficult for fellow workers?" he thought.
"Ahem..."
Upon hearing Ethen's light cough, the store employees imdiately turned to look at him. A custor had arrived!
In an instant, everyone's eyes lit up with anticipation. Adamu was especially delighted. He imdiately glared at the others, saying, "Watch closely and see how I handle this sale!"
With that, he took a deep breath, checked his appearance with a small mirror, and then walked briskly toward Ethen.
At this mont, his smile was warm, like a gentle spring breeze, and his voice was incredibly pleasant, with no trace of the anger he had shown earlier.
"Welco to Kindness Pharmacy Shop, sir. We are here to provide you with excellent service. How may I assist you today?"
Upon hearing Adamu's words, Ethen turned to him and asked, "Do you purchase dicinal herbs here? I have a batch I want to sell."
Ethen got straight to the point.
"Huh? Purchase dicinal herbs?"
Adamu was taken aback. "Sir, aren't you here to buy dicine?"
"Of course not; I'm here to sell dicine," Ethen replied with a slight smile.
Upon hearing Ethen's proposal, Adamu's face imdiately showed unmistakable disappointnt. For Kindness Pharmacy Shop, the priority was to secure more custors, not to purchase dicinal herbs.
Instantly, he waved his hand impatiently and said, "We have a mountain of unsold dicines here. Sir, you can leave now."
He effectively issued an order to leave, causing Ethen to feel slightly embarrassed. Although Ethen ca from a humble background and had worked various part ti jobs, he rarely engaged in sales work. Being rejected outright on his first sales attempt was a tough pill for him to swallow.
