Chapter 166: Preparations
After confirming that things at the factory were going fine and giving some extra instructions to the managers, the three of them left and went to the flagship store.
The ancient royal palace design was dazzling and attracted a lot of people. Since the store was also at the city center of City A, every day, conversations would be made over who owned it and what it was for.
Since work was done, the extra men that had come over to assist stayed there day and night with shifts to guard the store.
However, it was during the day today and Manager Fang was also on site.
As soon as he saw her, his eyes lit up and he rushed towards the three of them.
"Miss Rong! Welcome, and congratulations on bringing glory to the country." He said, his face beaming with a pleasant smile.
Rong Yue nodded, pleased at her choosing this man as her final option.
"You have been working hard," she commented also, looking around the entrance.
She shot a glance at the towering man beside her, her eyes softening even more just at the work that was done.
If she wanted to judge how well he had done it, she would say that he had done it about ten times better.
Just by walking through the door, a person would feel like they had been transported back to ancient times. The exact feeling that she wanted the customer to get.
Also, it was not just the ancient times, it was the ancient Royal feeling it gave off.
From the antiques to the decorations. Everything was perfect and nothing was out of place. However, she also noticed that the designers had gone soft on the use of gold to avoid making it look too tacky.
"Manager Fang, we would need to train all the workers here before you can start to focus on something else," she started, and then walked forward with him, that way, she didn't feel like she was surrounded by so many men all at once.
"All the female and male workers must be dressed to match the style of our store. Also, their courtesy needs to match the courtesy of the ancient dynasty," as she told him, she made a mental note to get someone that could train the workers ahead.
Today was a Tuesday and she wanted the opening to happen this next weekend.
"I thought of that and already contacted an etiquette master from the next province, I can ask her to come as soon as possible," Manager Fang said as he pulled out his phone to dial a number.
Rong Yue was surprised that he had thought to that point and nodded in approval. She waited in silence as he talked to the etiquette teacher.
"She said that two weeks is the shortest time that it would take for her to be able to train our workers, but she also offered that for the opening, she can bring some already trained people to work for us while she is still training our staffs,"
The arrangement suited Rong Yue and she agreed.
According to her calculations, their flagship store would need about thirty female workers at the very least.
There were three floors and each of these floors had different purposes.
The base floor was like a reception but because of the theme of the store, they made it look like the entrance to a palace. Anyone that entered here would then be guided by one of the staff to the floor they needed to be on.
The first floor was the store, it was divided into two where the customers could first see a specialist for recommendations before they proceeded to get the products.
The second floor was the aromatherapy room. It focused more on beauty and would be managed by professionals.
The third floor was for administrative purposes and Rong Yue had plans of including a medical restaurants where people could get soups and drinks that would help their health.
However, she wanted to test out the running of the store first to see how well it would go before adding that.
"For the launching, the grander the better. It would be better if everything is perfect, that way; we can reach the luxury and high paying clients first. After that, we introduce subsidiaries that caters to everyone,"
Rong Yue and manager Fang walked together through all the floors and she gave him instructions.
Also, she kept him updated on the things she had also done in regards to the opening ceremony.
Because she was not from a big household in the capital, she had used the influence from the Sun family.
Also, every invitation that she sent out were all beautifully packed.
"Miss Rong, I also think we should do a live coverage of the event, that way, it would make the launch sales that you planned to sell out even more,"
Rong Yue accepted immediately. By the time they walked back to the base floor where Qin Yichen and Lu San were, they had spent close to an hour.
The last part of their conversation had been overheard by Qin Yichen and he turned to look at Lu San beside him.
"Pay a visit to the connections we have here in City A. I want everyone that's important enough to be there for the opening." Qin Yichen instructed, his eyes not leaving Rong Yue's figure for one second.
"Should I let them know that you will be present?" Lu San asked back in a whisper.
Qin Yichen said nothing for a moment, just when Rong Yue was close enough to them, he turned his head and replied him.
"Keep it a secret for that day."
If he told them he was going to be there, the crowd would be a little too much for Rong Yue to handle.
Even though the base floor could hold three hundred people comfortably, it would still be a lot of stress on her.
Also, if they didn't know, it would make it easier to keep his identity secret to the majority of the other guests.
At this time, Rong Yue walked to where they were, and Manager Fang's whose notepad was filled with so many notes and scribbles nodded at Qin Yichen and Lu San before he hurried off to get to work, leaving the three of them.
"I have settled matters with him, let's talk to the men outside," Rong Yue said, walking forward without looking at the three of them.
She had no idea that when she was on the second floor, Qin Yichen had made Lu San to spar with more than three of those men.
Just from their technique and reflexes. He was already sure of where they were from. However, he was curious about their master's intentions for sending men to his woman.
Because of this, he said nothing, wanting to see the reaction the men would have towards Rong Yue.
When they got outside, the ten men acted like they didn't see anyone coming and going, their stance professional.
Rong Yue scoffed as she walked up to one of them.
"Who owns this building?" Her aura had changed from when she was talking to Manager Fang or from when she was just some genius student.
Now, even though she was shorter than the man she stood in front by several feets, her stance and aura was domineering and didn't make her seem any inferior beside them.
"Young Mistress, this building belongs to you." The man answered respectfully with an head bow.
"Why then have you decided to camp out in front of my building? Who gave you the right?"
The men exchanged glances each one of them communicating with the other.
Just by calling her young mistress already made Qin Yichen's aura darken. However, he didn't step forward knowing very well that the woman he liked would prefer to handle it since she was already here.
"Our Master assigned us to stay here and assist with the process. Also, we are to make sure that no one sneaks into this building regardless of their identity." One of them replied.
Rong Yue turned her gaze to the speaker, the question in her eyes obvious.
"Who is your master?"
"We don't dare to reveal his identity," the ten of them answered in unison.
Rong Yue rolled her eyes.
"He sent ten men to stand in front of my store and ten shadow guards to guard my factories. And he wants to keep his identity hidden?"
"Fat chance!" She shot back with a scoff, her entire person overbearing and domineering.
While her words seemed like empty threats, none of the men or even Qin Yichen had an idea that as she turned to look at each men, she was using the system in her to scan their faces.
As long as it ran the data on them, she would know where they were coming from.
"I'll be here tomorrow, if your master isn't ready to reveal his identity, then he must be prepared to lose twenty men as none of you would make it pass then."
Without another word, she turned and left surprising Qin Yichen.
"Don't you want to know where they are from?" Yichen asked as they walked back into the car, his eyes deep and curious. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Clearly, he hasn't expected her to leave them that easily.
