Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 429: Liu Changjiang’s Embarrassment

Three, two, one...

Just after the count of three, Liu Changjiang’s expression instantly twisted.

"Who did that? Who’s so uncivilized to fart in front of so many people? Can’t they be a little restrained?"

"Exactly, at least go outside. There’s a crowd watching here."

The two women closest to him looked disgusted, fanned the air with their hands, and scanned the people around as if searching for the culprit.

Liu Changjiang covered his rear with a hand, clenching his legs as he shuffled away, trying hard to hold something in.

But before he could move two steps, one of the women stopped him: "Liu, was it you? You’re really lacking manners with all these people here."

Liu Changjiang was holding back so hard that his face turned red: "No, don’t talk nonsense, it wasn’t me."

Just as he finished speaking, everyone heard a "poof" sound, and it seemed a bit stringy too.

"Ew, Liu, why? If you can’t hold it, can’t you quickly head to the bathroom?"

"That’s disgusting, stay away from us."

The crowd took a collective step back, as if avoiding the plague.

Liu Changjiang covered his face with one hand, thinking his reputation was ruined.

The women nearby weren’t about to let him off the hook.

"You’re a grown man, even a manager once; why so careless?"

"Exactly, couldn’t you hold it until you’re in the bathroom?"

Liu Changjiang wanted to cry without tears: "How about you let me go! If it weren’t for your constant babbling, I could have..."

Before he finished speaking, another "poof" was heard, and everyone turned to look. Wow, Mr. Liu had deliberately worn white pants today, and now they’re stained.

Liu Changjiang was instantly petrified on the spot; in his anger, he couldn’t hold it in, and now his reputation was gone!

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing.

Liu Changjiang passed by her covering his backside, giving her a fierce glare, and quickly dashed into the restroom.

He didn’t come out after entering, and it was heard that later he asked for leave to go home.

This laxative was really powerful; fortunately, she had a golden finger, or she would have been the embarrassed one.

Su Xiaoxiao took a moment to the warehouse and packed and shipped three thousand wall clocks there.

After finishing everything, she stealthily returned to her manager’s office. Just as she entered, there was a knock at the door, startling her.

Who is it? Coming at such a "timely" moment? Don’t they know she’s feeling guilty right now?

"Who is it?"

She raised her voice and shouted towards the outside.

"Xiao Su, it’s me."

She had yelled with such vigor and immediately heard Yan Guohua’s forceful voice from outside, and she deflated instantly. Seriously, they just finished that meeting that was as smelly and long as an old lady’s foot binding cloth, what’s the general manager coming to find her for this time?

Could it be Liu Changjiang learned it was she who swapped the water in his cup and complained to the general manager?

She hurriedly opened the door, with a bit of ingratiating smile: "General Manager, do you need anything from me?"

Yan Guohua walked in with his hands behind his back, his eyes scanning the room, lighting up upon seeing the little money tree on Su Xiaoxiao’s desk: "Xiao Su, your money tree is growing quite well."

Su Xiaoxiao: "..."

The general manager wouldn’t have come eyeing her money tree, would he? No way, absolutely not, she still needs this money tree for good luck.

She quickly ran over: "General Manager, if you like it, I can get you a new one next time, this one has a flaw, so I won’t gift it to you."

"You silly girl, thinking I came for your money tree?"

Yan Guohua chuckled, he had just casually mentioned it, and look how it scared the girl.

"Then why did you come over..."

Su Xiaoxiao tentatively asked. As the saying goes, there’s no visiting the temple without reason, she couldn’t believe the general manager came over for casual chitchat.

"It’s like this, the end of the year is approaching, and the upper management isn’t too satisfied with our annual sales performance. I wanted to see if you could come up with some good ideas to clear out our unsold stock in the department store by the year’s end."

If those hard-to-sell old-style clocks could be cleared, other items should be a breeze.

Yan Guohua had great confidence in Su Xiaoxiao.

Is that it? He could have said so earlier, giving her a fright.

Su Xiaoxiao surreptitiously wiped sweat off her brow and smilingly pulled up a chair for Yan Guohua: "General Manager, have a seat and take a rest, I actually have a few ideas we could try."

Thus, Su Xiaoxiao, using some modern sales tactics, proposed a few promotional plans to Yan Guohua, like discounts on full purchases, buy one get one free, multi-item discounts, buy the second item half off...

The two of them chatted for over an hour, with Su Xiaoxiao passionately explaining, and the more Yan Guohua listened, the brighter his eyes became, feeling like he’d found a treasure. This girl had way more potential than just being a sales manager.

"Good, good, very good, then Xiao Su, you’ll be in charge of the year-end promotional event. Do well, and I’ll apply for a year-end bonus for you."

Yan Guohua was grinning widely, almost seeing the scene of the year-end sale achieving great success.

"General Manager, rest assured, I’ll make sure this promotional event is spectacular for you."

The year-end promotional event was set for a week later, with tight time and heavy tasks, keeping Su Xiaoxiao extremely busy.

She had to lead the warehouse manager in inventory checks and simultaneously draft promotional plans for different products, living each day to the fullest.

That day, she had just said goodbye to Zhang Yulan and others and stepped out of the department store. At the entrance, she saw her older brother Su Wenbing standing not far away.

"Little Sister."

Su Wenbing, upon seeing her come out, waved vigorously.

"Big Brother, why are you here?"

Su Xiaoxiao was pleasantly surprised, running over and noticing her brother’s cracked lips, she quickly told him: "Big Brother, wait a moment."

Speaking, she reached into her pocket and pulled out a big apple to give to Su Wenbing. It was from Chen Hai and the others when she returned from Chuan City the last time, which she kept in her space’s small warehouse, not having taken it out yet.

Su Wenbing looked at the red apple in his hand, swallowed, but shoved it back to her: "Little Sister, Brother doesn’t like apples, keep it for yourself."

Su Xiaoxiao knew he didn’t want to waste it, sighed, split the apple into two, and kept the smaller half: "Is this okay? We each have half."

Su Wenbing awkwardly accepted it, thinking his sister was too kind to him, and vowed to treat her even better in the future.

"Brother, did you come to see me for something?"

Su Xiaoxiao crunched into the apple, which she had kept in the small fridge of her space warehouse. Even now, it was fresh, juicy, and crispy sweet on the bite.

"Xiaoxiao, Brother found a girlfriend."

Su Wenbing’s face reddened with embarrassment as he said awkwardly: "She’s coming to our house tomorrow night, and I was thinking of buying her a gift, could you help me choose?"

Su Xiaoxiao choked on her apple, nearly losing her breath.

She pounded her chest twice and finally managed to swallow the bite, widening her eyes in disbelief: "Brother, since when? Whose girl is she?"
