Chapter 239: Chapter 239: GK Grand Opening, Absolutely Packed
In the blink of an eye, it was the day after tomorrow.
The mall hadn’t opened yet, but several long lines had already formed. The mall employees arrived at work, witnessing this scene, and thought they must be seeing things.
What day is it today? These customers came early in the morning to queue up, making it seem like the mall had just opened, and there were free extravagant gifts being given away inside.
As the employees approached, they found that many of those queuing up in down jackets were young women, roughly between 20 and 35 years old, with fashionable hairstyles, carrying and wearing mostly branded bags.
The employees were startled, seeing so many wealthy beauties lining up. Could it be that the mall was giving away gold today?
It’s known that these fashionable and wealthy beauties can’t be lured with small advantages since they don’t crave petty bargains unless there’s gold to be had in the mall.
"Hello, pretty lady, may I ask what brings you here so early? I’m an employee of xx brand in the mall. I haven’t heard of any events, so I’m a bit curious."
The employee asked politely.
"I’m here to snatch clothes!" The pretty lady said with a smile.
"Huh? Snatch clothes?" The employee was puzzled: "Do you need to snatch clothes?"
The clothes at her store usually greeted guests at the door daily with "Welcome," and very few people came inside. Only during holidays was there a slight increase in customers, and she had to use all her eloquence and good words to make a sale.
The pretty lady furrowed her brows: "Why not snatch them? Look at these people; they’re all here to snatch clothes from me."
Speaking of which, the pretty lady felt quite frustrated!
The employee’s mouth twitched. Oh my gosh, so many people snatching clothes? She was curious once again and asked, "Which store is so generous? Quite a few clothes being given away for free today, huh?"
Otherwise, why would so many people come to snatch clothes?
Free, it must be free.
The pretty lady rolled her eyes at the employee: "You’re dreaming! When has there been such divine pies falling from the sky?"
The employee let out another "Huh?" wanting to ask the pretty lady about what was really going on.
The pretty lady no longer wanted to talk to her: "Go get to your work! You wouldn’t have time to snatch clothes with us."
Feeling blocked, the employee thought: If the clothes aren’t free, unless I have something wrong in my head, why would I queue up early in the morning to snatch them? No matter how cheap, I won’t snatch them; it’s all just a merchant’s trick.
Employees have their own passage; upon entering, she smelled the scent of flowers in the mall’s corridors and looked ahead, seeing several workers moving flower baskets.
Originally intending to take a look, she found there to be too many flower baskets over there, probably over twenty, with workers moving back and forth, so she didn’t go and arrived at her store.
"Ruth, is the front one a new store opening or an old store renovated?"
"I don’t know! I haven’t paid attention. Why?"
"Wow, look at its clever marketing! Fooled so many customers into coming."
"Huh? Are the customers queuing outside lured by them? Good job! Let’s try to capture their customers and boost this month’s sales."
"Okay, when customers come in, I’ll stand at the door and shout."
On the opening day, Ivana Monroe came to this mall, while her partner Ivy Linden went to another store.
All the employees were newly recruited. Ivana assigned their tasks, and there were only ten minutes left before the mall’s opening time. She also saw the people who were queued outside.
At first, Ivana couldn’t believe it. Even though "Yiren Magazine" and "Stacy Floyd’s Weibo" had many people who liked her fashion designs and said they would come to buy, as the opening day approached, she remained anxious.
Because she knew, saying and doing were two different things.
But surprisingly, so many people actually came.
"Hi, President Monroe." Oscar Olsen, with his pronounced facial features, appeared in front of Ivana, smiling.
The store employees were mostly young girls in their twenties. Upon seeing the tall man with a mixture of French and English handsome features, and when he smiled, his affability was overwhelming, causing their hearts to race and their faces to flush.
Their President Monroe was so beautiful; President Monroe’s friend was also so handsome, so tall, so majestic.
This is the legendary tale that outstanding people become friends with other outstanding people?
"Why are you here?" Ivana was a bit surprised.
"Oh~ it’s like this; my mom knows you’re opening today and asked me to come and help."
With only women’s clothes here, what could Oscar, a big man, help with?
"Thank you for your mom’s kindness, but there’s really no need," Ivana said with a smile.
"Why not? Look, there’s a flower petal on the floor; I’ll pick it up for you." Oscar pointed to a pink petal on the ground, bent down to pick it up, and tucked it into his pocket.
Ivana glanced past Oscar and looked out the store. The flower baskets were placed on both sides of the shop entrance, and the workers moving the baskets hadn’t come inside, so how could there be petals on the floor?
Ivana didn’t dwell on it; she smiled and said to Oscar, "There’s really no need; I have employees who will do everything well."
A few young girls nodded vigorously, thinking: President Monroe is so right, handsome man, please don’t take our jobs.
Oscar didn’t plan to leave, shamelessly saying, "Employees cost money; I’m free. Besides, I’m better looking than them; standing in your shop, I am your live billboard!"
Ivana: "..."
Employees: Can you even say such shameless things, handsome man! You’re so shameless!
The mall security just opened the doors, and the crowd surged into the mall.
The female employee stood at the store entrance, adopting a professional smile, and said to every customer passing by her door, "Nice Fashion, welcome."
No one paid her any attention.
Unconvinced, the female employee kept shouting, repeating over a hundred times within just ten minutes, her throat felt like it was on fire, yet not a single customer entered; the same was true for the employees at other store entrances.
She shouted until her throat was sore, but couldn’t attract anyone to come in.
Ruth was inside the store, ready to greet guests and introduce products. Seeing no one come in, she went to the entrance, only to find "GK" had a crowd at the entrance, all wanting to get in, but the store was just too small to accommodate everyone!
Even the mall security rushed over to maintain order.
If something were to happen with so many people rushing into one store, the mall would bear some responsibility.
"Please queue up in order," the security shouted loudly.
The beautiful female customers included Stacy Floyd’s fans, fans of Ivy, and ardent fans of Ivana after reading "Yiren Magazine." Their manners were quite refined, and as soon as the security shouted, they promptly lined up in an orderly fashion.
If everyone acted selfishly, disregarding others and only thinking about squeezing in, it would be difficult for those buying clothes inside to get out, and those outside wouldn’t be able to squeeze in. It would waste everyone’s time, so it’s better to queue up obediently.
The security was taken aback, not having expected the customers at this store to be so well-behaved.
