Chapter 885: We are not Poor

The entrance of the Green Fresh supermarket was bustling with activity.
The customers chatted and laughed with the people beside them as if they were very familiar with each other. They actually got to know each other while lining up for the shop opening.
However, no matter how lively the crowd at the entrance was, and no matter how long the line in front was, no one dared to cut the line.
Every morning, there were a few long lines. Every time the supermarket opened, only 100 people could enter.
After that, one person would come out, and one person would enter.
This was very different from the situation when the supermarket had just opened.
During the first three days when the supermarket opened, the customers would enter and leave normally.
But after three days, they had to queue obediently.
With a daily volume of 30,000 catties, they could serve around two to three hundred customers. Of course, this was because many of them were sent over by large families. A large family needed hundreds to thousands of catties of items a day.
Peter looked at the orderly queue of people, and his heart was filled with displeasure.
There were only several rich and noble families in a big city. However, Green Fresh catered not only to them but also to the common people. He could see them lining up at the entrance.
“Boss,” his subordinate looked at Peter’s expression and called out carefully.
Peter came back to his senses and looked at his subordinate, then said, “Go to that supermarket and buy some things back!” He wanted to see for himself what kind of amazing treasure this supermarket was selling.
There was a saying in China: Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in battles.
When his subordinate heard this, he asked in a daze, “Now?”
Peter asked unhappily, “Of course. How long do you think we should wait?”
His subordinate said with a troubled look, “No, boss. We’ll have to queue up if we go now. Plus, we might not even get the chance to get anything when it’s our turn.”
Peter’s sharp gaze swept over him and then said coldly, “That’s your problem! I’ll go back now!”
The subordinate, “…”
Looking at his superior who had gone far away, and then looking at the long line, his brows tightly knitted together.
If he lined up, the things inside would be gone when it was his turn. Therefore, he had to approach those who had already made their purchases.
Half an hour had passed, and his face was completely red from the sun and anxiety.
He had no idea that these people would reject his offer. He offered them such a high price to buy their stuff. Even if he offered more than ten times the price, those people would look at him like idiots. Then, they would coldly say, “Do we look like people who are very short of money?”
People who were short of money would come here to buy stuff too, but they bought very little. Therefore, they valued their purchase very much.
The rest were rich customers. They came here to buy the vegetables and fruits because they were fresh and delicious.
There were also maids from rich families.
Therefore, no matter what kind of people he met, he could not persuade any of them to sell him their purchase.
The subordinate was confused.
Why did these people not want to make money?
He stayed at the supermarket entrance for the whole morning, until the supermarket closed, but he failed to buy anything from the other customers.
The man was depressed.
He could imagine his boss getting angry since he didn’t finish the job.
