Chapter 1137: Visiting the mall (2)
The shopping mall's design that Yu Dong had come up with was in line with the modern one. Though there were many restrictions as electricity, marble and many more, she did everything that could be done with the resources that were available.
Like instead of electric bulbs she used small lamps that needed to be ignited every morning. Instead of a sprinkle fountain, she created a small stream that floated past the lobby which was covered for the time being as they did not have enough water to use it.
Plants and small pots decorated each floor which was then connected to the ones on the opposite floor of the building next to the one where they were standing. Each floor had six shops which were around seventy square meters big, compared to other ordinary shops, it could be considered rather big.
The floors were stationed above the roofs of other shops thus Yu Dong did not have to worry about space as she made use of her skills and made it such that she would not have to worry about the building collapsing or the neighbours complaining.
Each shop was decorated with a chic and classy furnishing but Yu Dong added a few cute little things, like posters and quotes which made the entire shop lively. The candle stands were also funky which made the shop light up and to add to the charm there were small windows on the top that were covered with grills and allowed them to look out of them.
The higher one climbed the more intriguing the scenes in front of them became.
Shen Li looked at the racks that were created to place meat stock and read the info that was written on them. Though it was complete nonsense as the only difference between the meat which was high and low pricing was that the higher ones were raised completely on spiritual water and fodder, Yu Dong had mentioned that she was feeding the livestock fodder from other countries.
But that was not what caught Shen Li's attention, what caught his attention was that there was a small and cute Yu Dong drawn on the side of the note.
" Who drew this?" He asked pointing to the miniature Yu Dong on the note.
Yu Dong turned and looked at her chibi self of her before chuckling, " That will be me, I thought that if I do this then the attention of children will be attracted more easily."
She had seen it in the modern world, every time a new weapon for self-defence came, the company would make use of small and cute things to sell it.
Even if it was completely useless for the kids, as long as their attention was caught, it would be next to impossible for their parents to walk out of the mall without buying anything, especially when she wrote things like —— it's delicious or it is really delicious in the speech bubble.
" This is good! The small sister Yu is really cute," Sun Jie exclaimed as he looked here and there. " It's like a big hotel!"
" You really know your stuff," Yu Dong smiled at the praise handed by Sun Jie.
" Yes, it is indeed really good," Shen Li and Ye Liu were convinced by the mall, even if they were not the ones who were going to buy anything from this place, given how cute and interesting the shops and buildings looked some of the customers would purchase the products out of their curiosity.
" This is not all, I am going to hire some people to cook samples and treat the customers when they are here to shop," Yu Dong had learned from an old video where beautiful women used to cook samples and attract the attention of the customers.
Similarly, she was going to hire some well-spoken and professional workers such that they would boost the sales of the products that were being sold in the mall.
" This is a brilliant idea!" Chen Mi clapped his hands and agreed with Yu Dong. " If we hire some people to cook samples for the customers then they will understand the difference between our products and the ones that are being sold outside." He paused and added, " Why don't I teach them how to cook? That way no one will be able to escape the temptation."
Yu Dong thought about it for a while and then nodded, " Alright then I will have to trouble you. I will hire some of the workers in a few days and you need to teach them how to cook and present samples such that no one would be able to refuse."
When Chen Mi heard that he could teach others to cook, he felt proud. In the house, he was the youngest and thus he was often useless when compared to Shen Li and the rest.
Seeing that he was happy, Yu Dong did not say anything and then turned to look at Fang Chi and the rest who were eyeing Chen Mi enviously. When she noticed their expression, Yu Dong could not help but laugh a little as she said, " There is no need for you to look like this, once the mall opens you can choose a shop and start selling what you like.
Whether it's flowers or makeup, embroidery or something else." Find your next read at m_v l|e'm-p| y r
" Can we do that?" Fang Chi asked sounding excited if he could sell flowers then why would he not be willing?
Yu Dong nodded and then said, " Of course you can. A mall is a place where you can sell anything and everything."
She then turned to look at Ye Liu and added, " You can stay at home with me and check up on the accounts while being in charge of the security. As the mall will allow people to pick and choose there is a chance that they will try to shoplift, in that case, we need some security personnel to make sure that the customers will not steal anything."
When Ye Liu heard her words, his eyes lit up as he nodded. " You can surely leave the matter of security to me!"
