C88 (1/2)

The guard saw that it was almost time: ”Alright, it's time. Let's go.”

Su Zhi had no choice but to leave. Before leaving, she repeatedly warned Li Yi to be careful and not be reckless.

Hua Manlou is now on the cusp of a storm, and any small move could bring disaster.

In this way, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

After leaving the prison, Su Zhi did not dare to waste even a second and directly returned to the shop.

She was tired all morning, and when she was dizzy, she remembered that she had not yet eaten lunch.

Qiu Hong was worried that her body wouldn't be able to support itself, so she took some pastries from the dessert shop to fill her stomach.

”Boss, the business on the second floor isn't very good today. Many people didn't dare to come when they heard that Manager Li was causing trouble. ”I don't know who said anything, but Manager Li had epilepsy and could hurt people at any time. Rumor has it that with this commotion, there would be fewer customers.”

It was within reason that Su Zhi thought of this. There were many people who were staring at Hua Manlou, so she naturally wanted to take advantage of a few more opportunities to kick him a few more times.

Opening a department store was cheaper than opening other stores, which meant that selling rice would offend the people in the rice shop; selling cloth would offend the people in the cloth shop; and selling fresh fruits and fruits at the same time would even offend the pawn vendors.

However, Su Zhi had the foresight to greet the various great trading companies in advance, in order not to offend these people.

Even so, self-deception was still present everywhere in the shopping mall. This was a battle that could not be seen.

”Just keep working as usual and pretend that this didn't happen. If someone is gossiping and talking about Flowerland, don't pay any attention to them. ”

”Then wouldn't we be letting them do as they please? To slander? ”

Su Zhi was also helpless. While gossip was indeed troublesome, wouldn't it be even worse if someone took advantage of this gap to dig a hole for them to jump into?

”In short, all of you should remember that you can't argue with people outside. Calm down and do your own things.”

Although Qiu Hong was unwilling, she knew that Su Zhi was right.

Flowerwood's reputation was not to be harmed. Business was all about reputation, and not just fame, but fame as well.

”Boss, thank you for your hard work. I will pass on the message and make sure that our people will be careful and not fall victim to others' rule.”

”Mm, you can leave now.”

Su Zhi supported herself with her head, feeling exhausted after busying herself for the entire morning.

She was acutely aware that there was a crisis hidden beneath the invisible undercurrent.

Since the opening of the restaurant, Hua Manlou's business has been very good. Many people come to the restaurant to listen to music and drink tea after lunch each day. This afternoon, however, it was extremely cold and desolate. There were only a few people, in twos and threes.

Part of the reason for this was that Li Yi had destroyed the Hundred Flavors Clear Harmony. It wasn't surprising that there were fights in the mall, but there were also times when the lips and teeth had fallen.

The Hundred Flavors Clearing Huan could not be left alone, and the number of customers in Flower Mansion had been reduced by half.

Su Zhi thought about the ridiculous relationship between the two of them and found them laughable.

Without the accountant in the main hall, Su Zhi personally went up to fight.

The business on the third floor was handed over to the new acolytes. She went up to receive a rather large customer, since the business on the first floor was deserted. A few people came and went, and soon, the dessert shop had a special customer.

At first, Su Zhi was busy with her accounts with her head down. Someone directly rushed into the dessert shop. She just treated it as a guest coming back and didn't need to call anyone.

The man had bought a few bags of new products and was quite surprised to see Su Zhi sitting at the counter.

”Oh ~ It's you, little lady?”

Hearing the call, Su Zhi raised her head and saw a young master dressed in black silk clothing looking at her with a bag of pastries in his hand.

She was stunned for a moment. She also did not expect to meet him here. ”Young Master Li?”

Li Wuyou stepped forward and placed the pastries on the counter. Smiling, he joked, ”I didn't think that this little lady would have such great ability. To think that she would actually take on the task of accounting.”

Su Zhi smiled. ”Young Master Li, you flatter me. I can barely handle the lack of people in the shop. On the other hand, Young Master, you also like the pastries in our shop?”
