Chapter 6: Shopping frenzy

It's mid-July, and it's the hottest time of the year, and even if it's only early in the morning, the streets of Bunta City are still quite hot and dry as soon as the sun comes out.

The city of Bonta seemed to be paralyzed under the scorching sun, and the whole city seemed to be weak, not to mention the dense flow of people, and even the sound was rarely heard.

However, on the commercial street in the west of the city, it is a different scene entirely.

Hundreds of people poured in from dawn to this shopping street, which brings together hundreds of large and small shops, and what is even more surprising is that these hundreds of people actually gathered in front of one of the shops, as if they had made an appointment.

"Hey, Joseph, why are you here too?"

"Nonsense, can't I come if you can? By the way, Ike, are you here to buy a magic fan too?"

"That's right. You say, 'Also'? Are you here to buy a magic fan?"

"Of course. I paid the deposit a week ago!"

......

Similar conversations rang out from time to time in the crowd.

Through the small talk between each other, everyone found that the hundreds of people who were waiting in front of this usually inconspicuous "Heinze grocery store" in the commercial street at this time were all coming for the magic fan!

Only a small number of them paid the deposit a week ago and only came to pick up the goods today. The remaining hundreds of people heard about the magic fan from their own channels, and rushed to buy it back.

"I said, there are so many people here, what if there aren't enough magic fans in the store to sell?" a question popped up one of the men.

It didn't matter what he asked, the crowd that had just gathered together to chat suddenly fell silent, but after a while, they rushed to the door of the grocery store together.

"Don't squeeze! I must buy a magic fan today! Otherwise, the mother-in-law at home will scold me to death!"

"Damn, do you think your mother-in-law will scold people? My family said that if there is no magic fan tonight, she will take my boy to sleep on the road!"

"Okay, don't squeeze, I've paid a deposit!"

"Fuck off! The guy who paid the deposit followed us and squeezed his ass!"

......

Xu Yi had already delivered 500 magic fans to Heinze's grocery store last night, and was counting the number of goods with Heinze at this time, when he suddenly heard that the front of the grocery store had become extremely noisy, and Heinze glanced at each other, and came to the front store together.

As soon as they opened the door, the two of them were startled by the scene in front of them.

The crowd of black-pressed people rushed into the store like a flood bursting its banks, instantly filling the small shop.

"Heinze, where's the magic fan I ordered?"

"Hey, boss, I didn't book in advance, but I'm going to buy two now, no! three!"

"And me, Heinze, I'm your old patron here, you must sell me two magic fans!"

"Damn, what's wrong with the old customer? If I give money, you will sell me something, and I will also have one!"

"Why are you squeezing so hard to buy only one, stay behind me!"

......

The weather was already hot, and as soon as this crowd squeezed in, it was even hotter, and it was the first time Xu Yi faced such a situation, which instantly made him sweat profusely.

It was also the first time for Heinze to see such a frenzied shopping crowd, but fortunately, after all, he had opened a grocery store for many years, and in this regard, it was much stronger than Xu Yi, who had always only been nested in the research room, so he quickly settled down and shouted: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet! We have prepared a full 500 magic fans this time to ensure that you can all buy them!"

Hearing the figure of five hundred, everyone calmed down a little.

But this calmness only lasted for a blink of an eye, and in an instant, everyone thought that there were hundreds of people guarding outside the grocery store now, even if each person only bought one magic fan, it was only barely enough, but just now many people revealed that they were not only buying one, so five hundred units were not enough at all.

After thinking about this, the crowd became even more frenzied than before.

Seeing this posture, Heinze knew that it was useless to say anything, so he hurriedly glanced at Xu Yi and asked him to go to the backyard to move the goods with his nephew Alex, who he had found two days in advance.

A magic fan probably weighs less than three kilograms, and Xu Yi and Alex can move out ten of them together, but as soon as these ten units are moved out, they are instantly snatched up by the crowd guarding the store, so the two can only turn back to the backyard warehouse again.

As Xu Yi and Alex went back and forth between the backyard warehouse and the store, the four hundred and eighty-seven magic fans that filled the entire warehouse quickly dwindled.

Later, the people who were guarding the store pù were even impatient and continued to wait in the shop, so they simply rushed to the warehouse in the backyard with Xu Yi and Alex.

Heinze also took the opportunity to change the trading location to the warehouse, so in less than an hour, all the magic fans in the warehouse were sold out.

At this time, there were still more than 100 people outside the store who had not bought it, and when they heard the news that the magic fan had been sold out, they were immediately disappointed, and some people who were anxious couldn't help but complain.

"I can't even prepare everything, what kind of shabby shop are you opening?"

For this unreasonable complaint, Xu Yi and Heinze could only look at each other and smile bitterly.

However, in the wry smiles of the two, there is an obvious satisfaction and relaxation.

I thought that it would take a long time for these more than 400 magic fans to be sold completely, but I didn't expect that it would take less than an hour to sell them all, which really surprised the two.

For the remaining 100 or so people who have not bought magic fans, Heinze will naturally not give up lightly, and after getting Xu Yi's nod of agreement, he immediately said that there will be a large number of magic fans in the future, and if everyone needs it, they can be booked in advance.

This time, everyone did not hesitate at all and placed orders one after another.

Another half hour passed, and the crowd gradually dissipated, and the grocery store finally returned to quiet.

After seeing off the last guest, Heinze immediately pulled Xu Yi to the inner room.

"Jingle Bell—"

Heinze shook the money bag in his hand, and a large pile of gold coins fell like flowing water, and a moment later a small mountain was piled up on the table in front of the two of them.

Looking at the brilliant golden light emanating from this hill, Heinze swallowed and foamed with difficulty.

Too much!

It took a while for Heinze to calm down his excitement and count in front of Xu Yi.

A total of 487 magic fans were sold today, according to the price of two gold coins per magic fan, it should be 974 gold coins, but one hundred and thirty-seven of them have already paid a deposit of one gold coin in advance, and today is just to make up the difference, so one hundred and thirty-seven must be subtracted, and the total should be 857 gold coins.

After Heinze's count, the number was exactly the same.

"Xu ...... Xu Yi, I'm really rich today!" Even though he had prepared for this amount in his heart, when there were actually more than 800 gold coins in front of him, it still made Heinze a little dizzy.

He opened this grocery store in Bonta City, and his income for a whole year was only more than 300 gold coins, and now it only took one morning to sell more than 800 gold coins!

He couldn't believe it was true!

Although Xu Yi was much calmer than Heinze, he was also a little excited in his heart.

It's been three years since he came to this world, and his life has never been rich, although he has never been particularly sensitive to money, but now with this income, it can undoubtedly make him much easier.

After the two were silent for a while, Xu Yi settled down and counted four hundred gold coins from the pile of gold coins and pushed them to Heinze.

Heinze was stunned: "That's not right, right?"

According to the agreement between him and Heinze, Heinze should be paid a dividend, so the dividend alone should be ninety-seven gold coins, and when making these five hundred magic fans, Xu Yi did not have enough funds to buy raw materials, so he borrowed two hundred gold coins from Heinze, so he naturally had to return them together.

In general, Xu Yi should have given Heince 300 gold coins, but this time he directly pushed over 400, which naturally made Heinze a little surprised.

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "There's nothing wrong with that." The extra 100 gold coins are because I want you to rent me a larger space in the city so that I can produce a larger number of magic fans. Otherwise, if you stay at my house, there will be a lot of inconvenience. ”

Heinze nodded slightly, the cottage Xu Yi rented was only more than ten square meters, but there were many inconveniences.

Xu Yigang was about to make a more specific request to Heinze when Alex, who was guarding the front store, suddenly barged in.

"Uncle Heinze, Xu ...... Mr. Xu, come on...... It's a big guest!"

"Big guest?" Xu Yi and Heinze glanced at each other inexplicably. "What do you mean by a big guest?"

The two of them came to the front store together, and instantly understood what Alex meant by "big guest".

The person who came was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, of medium height, and his appearance looked ordinary, but there was a trace of shrewdness all over his body, and a pair of small eyes that narrowed up and down always revealed a look that seemed to treat people as commodities when looking at people.

"A thousand. After meeting Heinze and Xu Yi, the middle-aged man who called himself Reeves explained his intentions bluntly. "I want to order a thousand magic fans. ”
