Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 431 A good start

He thought that he should do his best so that he could live up to the expectations of himself and his family.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the time for the store opening finally arrived. Early in the morning, everyone in the family got up early, did some simple exercises, and then started to eat. In the end, two people were left at home to look after the house, and the others went to the store to help.

In the past few days, after the promotion by those children, most people in the city have already known that a new Moxiangzhai is about to open. There are colored papers and ink blocks produced there, as well as a medicinal ink with medical effects. There are many kinds of pens, and there is also a kind of pencil that can be carried around for easy writing. There are also various inkstones, you can choose whatever you want.

Most families in the city have scholars, and after hearing the news, they are looking forward to the opening of Moxiangzhai. If it is cheap, you can buy it anywhere, as long as it is useful.

The best news is that in the first three days of the opening, there is a promotion where you can get a pen or a piece of ink for every purchase of one or two taels of silver. This is very attractive. Both the pen and the ink are not cheap, and the promotion is very strong. If you have a good family, you can get enough by yourself, and if you have a poor family, you can get together with a few people to get enough.

When they arrived at the door of their own shop, someone was already waiting there. They asked the servants to open the door. The plaque of Moxiangzhai was covered with red silk cloth, and a table was brought out from inside, on which were placed some colorful paper-cuts.

This is the idea Su He came up with. When passers-by come to ask about it, the brothers can give them one. It looks good when you stick it on the wall or window at home. This is what they cut together.

Everything was ready. The nimble waiter lit the firecrackers. As the crackling sound of the firecrackers continued, Su He's father and Master Feng Dayuan peeled off the silk cloth, revealing the three golden characters "Mo Xiang Zhai" written inside. The characters were majestic and vigorous, and the strokes were like dragons and snakes, and they were written by Master Ye.

Customers came into the store one after another. The waiters served them in a well-trained manner without any panic. Customers looked at the many colors of paper and ink, and some wanted to try them. On one side of the hall, there was a large desk where they could sit and write.

Some people took samples and wrote on them, many of them were poems. Su He decided to frame the good ones and hang them on the wall.

Customers came in an endless stream throughout the morning. Everyone followed the waiter's advice and bought enough things worth one or two silver coins. They felt it was worth it to get the gifts. Everyone was very satisfied with the display of goods here. The prices of goods on each shelf were different, and people could directly find the ones that suited their price range.

You don't have to look blindly for the goods. There are big signs on each shelf. The waiters are very friendly and polite, which makes people feel comfortable. They will not treat customers lightly just because you are wearing shabby clothes.

The gifts at the door are given out as soon as you enter the store. Many children come to ask for them, and the Su He brothers also give them away with a smile. They have cut a lot of them in the past few days. After giving them away today, they will go back to prepare more in the evening.

There are many characters of happiness and blessing, and everyone likes them very much. Some scholars heard about the situation here when they went home at noon, and came here in groups in the afternoon.

When Su He and his family were decorating the store, they wanted to be different from other stores. They set aside a large area in the store and used their own defective pens, inkstones, and inkstones as prizes. Whoever wrote the best handwriting could take away a prize based on how many books they copied.

In this way, some students from poor families can save money. Su He and his friends are using their own way to help students in their hometown. In this way, many families can support their tuition fees and avoid dropping out of school.

After the first day, Moxiangzhai's righteous act touched many students, and they spread the good news among their classmates. Students from wealthy families certainly didn't care about the prizes, but they liked the special writing brushes, inkstones, and paper. Students from poor families were very excited, as this could save a lot of money and reduce the burden on their families.
