Novel Bin Chapter 494: What About Me?
The Yu father and son were speechless.
Huh???
Uncle Yu asked uncertainly, “Gu girl, do you mean that it’s too good for Xiao Jin to hit the shopkeeper?”
“No, I mean, it’s great that Brother Yu Jin isn’t working in that shop.”
Everyone was speechless.
Gu Yundong smiled. “Actually, even if this hadn’t happened to Brother Yu Jin today, I would have asked him to quit his job in the shop. I’ve long heard that his shopkeeper is stingy and he doesn’t earn much money. The shopkeeper doesn’t do anything and only knows how to boss people around. The better Brother Yu Jin does, the more others don’t like him. How many years will it take for him to stand out in such a place? So I want to invite Brother Yu Jin, Uncle Yu, and Grandfather Yu to help in my shop.”
The three members of the Yu family widened their eyes and exclaimed, “Your shop?”
“Yes.” Gu Yundong said in embarrassment, “I just got a shop recently and haven’t opened business yet. Actually, I was thinking that if you come back to the Xuanhe Prefecture with us, I’ll have to find someone else to help look after this shop. But I’m not familiar with the Wanqing Prefecture. Uncle Yu knows many people, so I want Uncle Yu to introduce someone. Since you’re not coming with us, I can ask you to help take care of the shop. To be honest, I only trust you here.”
The Yu family members looked incredulous. “You, you mean, you want us to look after the shop?”
“Yes, didn’t Brother Yu Jin work in a grocery store? It just so happens that I plan to open a grocery store in my place.”
Gu Yundong actually wanted to open a shop selling all kinds of sweets, dried fruits, and preserved fruits, just like Gu’s in Fengkai County.
However, this place was too far from Yongfu Village. It would take a lot of time and money to transport the goods over. The cost was too high, and it was not worth it. At the very least, she had to wait until her business expanded and there was a workshop here.
Later on, she even thought of opening a medicinal shop, but selling herbs required a professional. Moreover, the preparation of the medicinal shop at the beginning would take too much time.
After thinking about it, he could open a grocery store first.
Firstly, it could help the Yu family. After all, Yu Jin had experience and it was convenient for him to do this.
Secondly, Uncle was actually quite a loyal and talkative person. He had only been in Wanqing Prefecture for half a year, but he knew many people from all walks of life and had channels to buy goods.
Previously, it was because Uncle Yu had introduced a cheap supply channel to the grocery store where Yu Jin was working that Yu Jin caught the eye of the boss and received the boss’s praise, causing the shopkeeper to be dissatisfied.
Thirdly, it was easy for the grocery store to change business. Gu Yundong had seen that the location of the shop was very good. In the future, when her business grew and she had a workshop here, she could still sell canned candy inside. It would be easy for the grocery store to change business.
After the Yu family heard what she said, they could not come back to their senses for a long time.
They knew very well that Gu Yundong was clearly helping them, but she kept saying that they were the only people she could trust.
This made them unable to find a reason to refuse.
“Uncle Yu, just agree. Otherwise, Yundong really doesn’t know who to look for. I’m also in a hurry to go home and see my wife and kids. If Yundong’s shop isn’t settled, we won’t be able to leave.”
Gu Dajiang also persuaded them.
Since they had already said this, the three members of the Yu family immediately gritted their teeth and nodded. “Alright, then we’ll help you look after this shop.”
“What about me?” At this moment, a faint voice suddenly came from behind.
