The next day, when it was still dawn, Su Fang arrived at the fruit shop 40 minutes early.
It was not only because of the opening today, but also because of her responsibility as the manager. She had to be prepared before the opening.
However, when she arrived at the fruit shop, she saw that there was already a long queue at the entrance.
When the first auntie who tried the food for free yesterday saw her, she immediately waved her hand excitedly and shouted, “Hey, hello. When will your shop open? We’ve been waiting for a long time.”
“That’s right, that’s right. I’m still in a hurry to go home and cook for my child. Can you open the door early?”
Many people echoed, hoping that Su Fang would open the door soon.
Su Fang looked at the time. It was not even five in the morning, more than three hours before eight.
If it were any other time, she would have opened the shop early without following the rules. However, today was the opening day. The opening day and the opening time had to be accurate.
Hence, she could only explain apologetically, “I’m sorry, everyone. Today is the first day of the shop’s opening. Besides, the shop assistant is not at work yet. Even if I open the door, I won’t be able to handle it alone. Why don’t you come back at eight?”
Everyone thought about it and agreed. The staff was not even at work yet. They might as well go back and do their own things and come back when it was about time. Anyway, it was the first day, so there shouldn’t be too many customers, right?
At the thought of this, more than half of the people left unwillingly. A small portion of them found a breakfast shop nearby to eat and wait. There were still a few aunties who did not leave. Instead, they sat under the shade of a tree and started chatting.
Su Fang returned to the shop and began to check the preparations for the day. On the other side, Xia Tangxin woke up early and came to the fruit shop after dressing up.
At 7:30 pm, all the employees arrived.
Xia Tangxin had nothing else to say. She had already said what she needed to say yesterday. She asked the male staff to set up the firecrackers. As long as the time was up, they would set it immediately.
When it was almost eight o’clock, Qin Xi called and hung up after saying a few things.
At this moment, a car stopped in front of the fruit store. The person in the lead was none other than Xia Tangxin’s father, Xia Zhenguo.
Seeing Xia Zhenguo, Xia Tangxin was overjoyed. “Dad? Why are you here?”
Xia Zhenguo laughed heartily. “My daughter’s store is opening today. As her father, of course I have to come and support her. Not only me, but also your Uncle Yang and Uncle Fan.”
The Uncle Yang and Uncle Fan he mentioned were both his business partners. Their net worth was not inferior to his.
As soon as Xia Zhenguo finished speaking, Yang Minghua and Fan Jun got out of the car at the same time. When they saw the large fruit store, they smiled and praised, “Like father, like daughter. Congratulations!”
Xia Tangxin smiled and said humbly, “Uncle Yang, Uncle Fan, you flatter me. I don’t know anything about business. It’s just a fruit store.”
A few of them entered the shop while chatting and laughing. When they saw the simple but elegant interior design, their eyes lit up.
Even Xia Zhenguo did not expect his daughter to design the store so well. Just as he was about to praise her, he saw the fruits on the shelves.
Xia Zhenguo’s expression froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. After all, it was not surprising to him that a pear the size of a football would appear after eating a carrot the size of an adult’s arm…
He could still remain calm, but Yang Minghua and Fan Jun were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
