Chapter 751 - They Had an Online Store
historical
He Xiyan immediately locked the door after Chen Jiahang left.
She was still unfamiliar with this city and didn’t have many friends apart from several colleagues who would occasionally ask her out to go shopping with them. However, she had always excused herself on the pretext that she was busy.
In fact, she was very busy.
After she cleaned up the house, she went to the bedroom and turned on the new computer that she just purchased last month.
She opened up a browser and went to Taobao and logged into the seller account that she had set up the month before. After she logged in, three notifications immediately popped up. The notifications showed that she had three orders and that three different customers had purchased her farm produce online.
“This is great!” He Xiyan clapped happily when she saw that there were new orders.
She didn’t have many orders since she opened her small online shop last month and had only received a dozen orders, so she was surprised to see three new orders at once when she logged in today.
This was far more than she had been expecting.
She quickly took out three new pieces of express delivery request forms and jotted down the order number, address of buyer, and so on before she entered a small room and wrapped up the goods that these buyers had purchased.
She would hand this to the delivery man downstairs the next morning.
After she finished settling her orders, she opened the Photoshop application and edited the photographs she had taken over the past two days.
After she edited these pictures, the photographs made the products she was selling look extremely high-quality and would cause anyone to salivate if they saw it.
The most important thing about operating an online store was internet traffic. She was a newly opened store, so she would need to rely on simple and direct methods of marketing.
This was why she pasted the QR code of her online store on her little stall and told her regular customers that she had opened an online store.
She was also prepared to pay some money on effective marketing for her store. She was even considering paying money to hire others to buy her products and leave fake reviews online.
In any case, she was a firm believer that once her shop got more traffic, she would receive even more orders. She even hoped that the profits from this online store would exceed the little stall she rented.
She was not afraid of working hard and suffering a little as long as their standard of living continued to improve.
She even felt joy in working, even though it might be a little tiring.
She didn’t have an identity card, so she rented the stall and opened the online shop with Jiahang’s identity card details.
She turned off the computer after editing the photographs. It was past 10 PM at night, so it was time for bed.
She would still need to sell vegetables at her stall tomorrow, so she had to wake up by 6 AM. Jiahang would probably be back around 6 AM, so his knock-off time coincided with the time she had to start working.
He Xiyan showered and lay quietly on the bed. After working the entire day, she soon drifted off into sleep.
The only thing that could be heard was the sound of her even breathing.
Chen Jiahang was repairing roads at a construction site. There were more than a dozen colleagues who were on the night shift with him. They were all farmers who hailed from remote villages and only came to the city in search of work for there was none back home.
Since they weren’t highly educated, this was the only job that they could do.
Thus, they were hard at work whilst others were sleeping.
They held a shovel and a hammer in their hands. Some were laying out the bitumen while others were breaking the old bitumen apart.
It was a very laborious task but they could not afford to slack off. If they didn’t complete their work as scheduled, their boss would dock their pay.
The workers chatted idly amongst themselves.
A man named Chen Qiang smacked Chen Jiahang’s shoulder and asked, “Hey, Jiahang, I’ve heard you’re married. Is that true?”
