Chapter 487: 487 Sold out_1

That was a good thirty-something people who had arrived.

Given Mr. Guo Rong’s influence in Chuan City, it was impossible that only about thirty people would show up.

After all, there were tens of millions of people in Chuan City; how could there possibly be so few fans?

So there had to be another reason, or perhaps some people hadn’t planned on coming over so early.

Or maybe it was because Mr. Guo Rong had mentioned last night that the flowers were fifty-eight yuan each, which might have put off a lot of people because of the price.

Boss Gu looked at all the customers who had come to the shop today. It could be said that these customers all had one thing in common.

That is, they were all dressed to the nines, and it was immediately clear that they were all wealthy and didn’t lack money.

Upon hearing that all the fresh flowers in the store were fifty-eight yuan a bunch.

They didn’t look at any other flowers, though, and instead all focused on the pink roses that Mr. Guo Rong had been holding during the interview last night.

"Boss Gu, the bunch of flowers Mr. Guo Rong was holding last night, it’s these, right?" someone asked Boss Gu like this.

"That’s right, it’s these flowers, but Mr. Guo Rong picked up five bunches in our shop, which are all pretty much the same; it just depends on which one you like," Boss Gu specifically said this.

If everyone came to buy these pink roses, even with the ones in the car, there wouldn’t be enough to sell.

Even after Boss Gu said this, the pink roses were still the top priority for everyone.

"Mr. Guo Rong said these flowers help with sleep? Is that true?" someone continued to ask Boss Gu.

"I think it’s possible, because last night my daughter also took a flower to sleep with, but of course, it might just be a placebo effect, after all, a flower is just a flower, not a drug; how could it possibly have a sedative effect?"

Boss Gu answered very honestly; he didn’t claim that his flowers had any particular differences, like aiding with sleep.

He felt that sort of thing was mostly due to subjective reasons, and perhaps it was just Mr. Guo Rong’s misperception.

But last night, indeed, Tiantian fell asleep holding a flower.

At this moment, Boss Gu looked outside the shop and saw that the reporters weren’t coming in to interview him.

Instead, they were directly interviewing Ji Pianran and Tiantian outside the shop.

Boss Gu had no idea what the two of them were saying in front of the camera.

But it was evident that both Tiantian and Ji Pianran’s faces were filled with excitement and joy when facing the camera.

For contemporary people, appearing on television was indeed an honorable event.

How honorable? It was even worth reporting to the ancestors during a grave visit.

"Boss, I’ll take two bunches," a customer made the first move, buying two bunches of pink roses.

After the first, there came the second.

There were a total of nine bunches of pink roses left in the room, and they sold out in an instant.

There were still twenty-three people who hadn’t bought flowers yet.

There were five more bunches of pink roses on the car outside, but that was still nowhere near enough to sell.

"Boss Gu, what other flowers did Mr. Guo Rong buy yesterday?" Some customers had already given up hope for the pink roses, as it was clear they couldn’t get any.

So they directly inquired with Boss Gu about what flowers Mr. Guo Rong had taken from the shop yesterday.

Boss Gu didn’t hold back and told them the whole truth.

After hearing this, they all immediately started shopping frantically.

At this time, the reporter who had been interviewing Ji Pianran and Tiantian outside now walked into the shop with the cameraman.

The camera was now trained on Boss Gu; the reporter was a very young-looking girl, like an intern.

"Hello, may I ask if you are Boss Gu?" the reporter asked Gu Chen with a smile.

"Yes, I am Gu Chen, hello," Gu Chen replied.

"May I ask, is it true that Mr. Guo Rong said he visited your flower shop last night?" the reporter continued to ask Gu Chen.

"Yes, Mr. Guo Rong stayed in my shop for a while. He really liked the flowers in our shop, and I had the honor of giving him some. Fortunately, Mr. Guo Rong wasn’t fed up with them," Gu Chen said with a very serious attitude.

His words elevated Mr. Guo Rong, thereby diminishing his own presence.

"Mr. Guo Rong mentioned that the flowers in your shop could help people sleep. Is that true?" the reporter asked Gu Chen.

Gu Chen was no fool; he knew that if he claimed they could, then the very next day, he would likely be visited by those looking to expose a fraud.

So, Gu Chen replied very solemnly, "Perhaps people perceive flowers differently. Some may find that the scent of flowers helps them sleep more soundly. Whether they can really aid sleep, I think, varies from person to person and is closely related to each individual’s constitution."

Gu Chen’s response was spot-on, without any superfluous nonsense—watertight, one might say.

The reporter nodded after hearing this, sensing that Gu Chen was very clever.

Such sensitive questions he never answered.

It was people like Gu Chen who could sustain their business for the long run.

In the time that followed, the reporter asked Gu Chen many more questions.

Most of them were related to Mr. Guo Rong.

Gu Chen was very smart, providing very discreet responses to any question about Mr. Guo Rong.

For instance, when the reporter asked about Mr. Guo Rong’s health, Gu Chen’s answers were very vague.

When the reporter inquired if Mr. Guo Rong came alone or with a girlfriend, Gu Chen also firmly answered no.

He understood that some things should not be spoken about recklessly.

Mr. Guo Rong had been so supportive of his business; he couldn’t use Mr. Guo Rong as a stepping stone.

"The world has treated me with kindness; I shall embrace the world with kindness in return."

After these questions, the reporter even reached into her pocket and bought a bouquet.

Since she was a fan of Mr. Guo Rong, she had gone to great lengths to secure this interview opportunity.

On one hand, she wanted to gain a deeper understanding of Mr. Guo Rong through Gu Chen, and on the other hand, she planned to buy some flowers herself.

So, starting in the morning, the business at the flower shop was bustling continuously without a pause.

The number of customers visiting the shop kept increasing.

Gu Chen had an exceptionally good business day!

By twelve noon, every flower in Gu Chen’s shop was sold out.

Gu Chen couldn’t possibly leave his store empty like that.

Therefore, he asked Ji Pianran and Tangtang to help watch the store.

Gu Chen then left directly in his car.

After driving around for about half an hour,

he returned to find many more customers waiting at the entrance of the shop.

At that moment, Gu Chen parked his car and opened the trunk.

The trunk and the back seat were filled with various fresh flowers!
