Chapter 159 Winter Break Food Delivery Available
by 盐味荔枝Chapter 159: Winter Break Delivery
"Owner, you're already offering New Year's specials so soon?"
"Yes, Chinese New Year is just around the corner."
"I don't think I've seen these combos on the app yet."
"They're not up on the app yet. They'll be up this afternoon."
"Then I'll order them this afternoon."
After getting his tray, Nie Shiming quickly sat down to eat. The New Year's gift packs were more fun to open with the whole family.
The next few students also decided to eat in instead of taking their food to go. After finishing their meals, they automatically bussed their trays, then took out their books to study.
Final exams were approaching, and the students were cramming every spare minute, hoping to ace their exams.
Xuehe Shop was nice and warm and had even set aside a special area that could accommodate thirty students for eating, studying, and resting, specifically for those preparing for exams.
So some students just skipped going home after lunch period, opting to eat, study, and rest right at the shop.
Sun Chengxin, however, had to bring food home for his family, so he went home for lunch.
"Owner, will you still be open during our winter break?"
"No," Jiang Yingxue said with a smile. "When you're on winter break, I'm on winter break too. But we'll be open for the week before the New Year."
Sun Chengxin felt a pang of disappointment. "Owner, can we still place orders on the app during the break then?"
"Yes, we'll have our own delivery people for that." Xiao Xing and the others had already finished their training, though they currently specialized in delivering to other provinces.
After Xiao Xing and his team started working, Jiang Yingxue had also recruited a group of short-tailed gray-furred rabbit yao. This team was specifically responsible for courier and delivery services within J City.
However, they were still undergoing job training and were currently being tested on what they'd learned.
Unlike the students' exams, if they failed their assessment, they would need to retake the course. They had three chances to retake.
If they failed all three times, the failing rabbit would be sent back to the Monster Beast Forest, and a smarter, more capable beast from the tribe would be brought in to replace it.
Hearing that Jiang Yingxue would offer delivery during the winter break, a smile reappeared on Sun Chengxin's face. "Delivery is great! Then I can have a very comfortable winter break."
"Thank you, beautiful and kind owner. I'll go check out the clothes." Sun Chengxin grabbed his order from the previous day, bought a No. 5 gift pack, and then turned right into the clothing store.
Seeing that most of the mannequins in the store displayed women's clothing, Sun Chengxin's eyes filled with dismay. "Beautiful sister, why is there so little men's clothing!"
Tong Ji said, "Although there are fewer styles for men, the styles are fashionable and classic. Feel free to browse, classmate."
"Some jackets, even though they're on female mannequins, are unisex. Men can wear them too."
At J City's Yaori High, like at other schools, students mostly wore their uniforms daily. So, Tong Ji immediately recognized Sun Chengxin as a student.
Sun Chengxin's gaze swept over the male and female mannequins in the store. Finally, his eyes landed on a female mannequin.
Pointing at the jacket on that mannequin, he asked, "Sister, does this jacket come in a men's version?"
Tong Ji followed his finger and saw it was a light purple starry sky leather jacket. "Yes, we also have it in black and blue."
"Would you like to try it on?"
Sun Chengxin said, "Yes, yes!"
Tong Ji called out to Ling Ji at the cashier counter, "Eldest sister, could you get me two size L starry sky leather jackets, one blue and one black?"
"Okay." Ling Ji opened the cabinet behind the counter, took out two starry sky leather jackets in different colors, and handed them to Tong Ji.
Tong Ji handed both jackets to Sun Chengxin. "Classmate, you can put your bags on the cabinet next to the cashier first."
"Alright." After putting down his bags, Sun Chengxin didn't go to the fitting room. He simply took off his own jacket in front of the full-length mirror and tried on the starry sky leather jacket.
As he changed, he chatted with Tong Ji and lowered his voice, "Sister, that sister looks so young and pretty. Why do you call her 'eldest sister'?"
Tong Ji smiled faintly. "I have two older sisters. She's my eldest sister."
"Oh, so it's 'eldest sister'." Sun Chengxin's face flushed slightly with embarrassment. He had misunderstood.
After putting on the jacket, looking at his handsome reflection in the mirror, he was extremely satisfied.
He pursed his lips. The price of this jacket was 100,000 yuan, which wasn't considered expensive in the store. He liked both the blue and the black ones.
"Sister, I'll take both. Please wrap them up for me."
"Okay."
Just as Sun Chengxin was swiping his membership card to pay, a middle-aged woman approached, holding a cashmere sweater on a hanger. "Miss, if I buy in bulk, can I get a discount?"
The woman's name was Xiang Ying. She was a buyer for Guyue Company. Her boss, Hu Yuchun, had specifically instructed her to buy New Year's supplies at Xuehe Shop. She had brought her boss's membership card and a letter of authorization.
Ling Ji asked, "A lot? Roughly how many?"
Xiang Ying said, "Around a thousand pieces."
Ling Ji asked, "Just the cashmere sweaters, or other items as well?"
Xiang Ying glanced at her phone, checking her chat with the boss. "If the price is right, we'd also like to get some jackets."
Her boss had taken a liking to the brown leather jacket, thinking it could serve as winter workwear.
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Ling Ji went out and told Ji Fu about this.
Ji Fu said, "For bulk purchases, we can offer a wholesale price. Come on, let's go take a look together."
"Hello, miss. May I ask which company you're from?"
Xiang Ying said, "Hello, I'm Miss Xiang from Guyue Company."
Guyue Company? Wasn't that Hu Yuchun's company? Ji Fu asked, "How are you connected to Hu Yuchun?"
Xiang Ying said, "He's my boss."
A few days ago, when Hu Yuchun was dining in Nanhe Village, he had also asked if Xuehe had New Year goods. When she said yes, he stated that this year's company New Year goods would be purchased from Xuehe.
That was the day Jiang Yingxue got the idea to prepare New Year goods.
After verifying Xiang Ying's identity, Ji Fu gave her a discount.
The cashmere sweater, originally priced at 500 yuan, was offered to her at 200 yuan per piece. The brown Warm Bear leather jacket, originally priced at 2,000 yuan, was offered at 1,200 yuan per piece.
After visiting the clothing store, Xiang Ying went to the food market.
Among the various New Year gift packages, she chose the top-tier set, priced at 40,000 yuan, which included Xia Yu Flower Candy, a full set of Spirit Flower Cookies, rice cakes, sunflower seeds, Spirit Flower Wine, and Soothing Tea.
Jiang Yingxue also offered her the best price: 20,000 yuan per package.
In the end, Xiang Ying purchased 1,253 pieces each of the cashmere sweaters, the brown Warm Bear leather jackets, and the deluxe New Year gift packages.
Xiang Ying used the authorization letter and Hu Yuchun's membership card to pay. Both parties agreed to pick up the goods in Nanhe Village three days later.
