Facing the sudden playful demeanor of Gu Zi, Li Hua couldn’t help but burst into laughter. The two women, related by marriage, found themselves in fits of giggles, taking a while to regain their composure. Li Hua, holding Gu Zi’s hand, asked, “Dear sister, please tell me, how did you figure out that we would have fewer customers later?” freēwēbnovel.com
Gu Zi wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue, having laughed until she cried. She explained softly, “Actually, it’s just a common pattern. If we do a good job promoting our business before opening, we will be very busy at first, and this will last for a while.
“However, once the initial buzz from the promotion dies down, the shop will enter a relatively quiet, even slow, period. Like these past few days, our business has reached a stable level. We won’t see a significant increase or decrease in customers. At this time, it’s appropriate to reduce our supply to avoid waste.”
Li Hua listened to Gu Zi’s explanation, her eyes wide with admiration. In her view, this must be the magical power of the educated. “So there’s such a strategy involved. How did you learn all this? Do they teach you how to run a business in school in the city?”
Gu Zi didn’t know how to respond for a moment and just chuckled. She then thought of an explanation, “Schools don’t usually teach this, but we can learn it ourselves. I learned it from books, which can teach us a lot!”
She didn’t want to lie, but she couldn’t exactly say that she was from the future.
Moreover, her explanation wasn’t entirely untrue. Some economic books, combined with a bit of intelligence and luck, could indeed lead to making a fortune. Yes, that’s it. Gu Zi convinced herself.
Li Hua was amazed, covering her mouth with her hand, “So reading books can be so powerful? Books really are a good thing. Look at us, we don’t read, we lack knowledge. We only know a few characters and can’t do anything else. Can I read books?”
Gu Zi smiled at Li Hua, giving her approval, “Of course you can. Not just you, even our mother can learn and improve herself by reading books if she wants to. Do you want to read? We can buy a history book for you to read. Just pick one that’s easy to understand, as long as you can comprehend it.”
