Protagonist:

Jiang Wenyu

"Young Master Wang, in this freezing cold weather, how come you're here again?"

Li Chen, in an extremely good mood, spoke with full confidence.

Wang Tao, on the contrary, looked even gloomier than before; he walked around here and there, and only at the end did he look at Jiang Wenyu and Li Chen, his voice very low, and said: "Li Chen, you've got guts."

Li Chen didn't quite understand what Wang Tao was talking about; Jiang Wenyu could guess a little but wasn't sure. Then he saw Wang Tao suddenly fix his gaze on Jiang Wenyu, his tone deep, and ask: "Mr. Jiang, speaking honestly, I have indeed failed in the appliance repair aspect; in the entire Chema City, not a single technician can be found who matches your skill, and this disappoints me greatly."

"However, precisely because of this, I can completely let go; it seems this fat piece of meat called repair is destined not to be obtained by me, Wang Tao."

If Wang Tao could really think this way and then let go, that would be fine, but Jiang Wenyu always felt there was more to this person's words than met the ear.

Wang Tao took a deep breath, finally gave them a meaningful look, then left gracefully; from start to finish he didn't drag his feet, vastly different from his usual arrogant demeanor.

"What's gotten into him, did he take the wrong medicine?"

Li Chen was baffled; Jiang Wenyu also didn't understand the specific reason, but had an uneasy feeling.

"Forget it, let's get to work first."

A day passed, and by evening the weather turned overcast again.

For three consecutive days after that, Chema City was hit by one snowfall after another — not heavy, not light — as the temperature gradually dropped.

About half a month later, the Mall suddenly decided to hold a pre-Spring Festival event!

In fact, as the New Year approached, major merchants in Chema City also held some promotional activities never tried before; even those old-fashioned tailor shops were the same.

"It seems all merchants inside the Mall have to participate; promotions include Discounts, Lucky Draws, etc. — these things were probably introduced from big cities; are they useful?"

Li Chen, holding a content sheet distributed by internal Mall staff, asked.

Jiang Wenyu nodded and said: "Very useful; don't look at it as just promotion, but foot traffic will increase because of it, and if done well, profits might far exceed normal."

Li Chen immediately said: "Then let's do one too?"

Jiang Wenyu agreed: "No problem; I estimate outsiders will come then, perfect for giving your shop more publicity."

"Hehe, then I'll go prepare right away!"

Preparation was nothing more than making the shop a bit cleaner and adding a festive atmosphere.

The Mall event was set for two days later, and during those two days the entire Mall became exceptionally busy; goods coming in and going out in an endless stream, as if all were preparing for this grand event; the Mall interior also gradually took on a fresh look, decked with lanterns and colorful banners, bustling with excitement.

News of Chema City Mall's big event spread very

quickly to nearby cities; most were similar in scale to Chema City, and this type of Mall existed only in Chema City; therefore, many people came to Chema City to participate in this Mall event.

For a time, the entire Chema City became incomparably lively.

Two days passed in a flash; the Mall event officially kicked off around 7 a. m. on the third day.

"Chema Grand Mall event officially begins! Open the gates!"

A young girl held a megaphone and shouted several times; behind her, the Mall's main gates slowly opened, and a large crowd immediately rushed in — some in groups, some alone; their anxious, hurried looks suggested they all wanted to gain some advantage in this event.

"Everyone don't panic; all goods in the Mall are quality guaranteed! Don't push!"

Rows of red silk hung over the Mall entrance, but no one paid them any mind. After entering the Mall, they rushed toward their respective targets; for a moment, clamor filled the entire Grand Mall.

Above the pool in the Mall center, red couplets were also hung one by one; a festive atmosphere unfolded first from this Grand Mall.

Today's weather was also very clear; even wearing little, one wouldn't feel too cold — for instance, Li Chen and Jiang Wenyu.

The two stood in front of the Dianqi Pu, both wearing only a shirt; although not very cold, their faces were covered in frost.

Customers passing by from outside the Mall came one after another, but their targets were elsewhere; it seemed no one cared about their small Dianqi Pu — only a few people came over, but upon seeing the Wooden Fence blocking outsiders in front of Jiang Wenyu and Li Chen, they quickly ran off.
