The Koi Wife of the Prime Minister

Chapter 140 The fisherman gets a profit

Shen Yan was concentrating on processing another batch of snails. She washed them with water, rubbed them gently, and listened to the faint sounds coming from the clear water. Her eyes were full of care and patience, as if she was having a spiritual conversation with each snail.

The two cooperated tacitly, revealing their mutual understanding and trust without saying a word. As night fell, the starry sky set off their hardworking figures, and the lights of Xiangxiang Shop gradually lit up, adding a touch of warmth and brightness to the quiet night sky.

Although the cleaning process is tedious, Shen Yan and Sister Xiaolan are grateful because it represents the investment in their business and the pursuit of quality.

They believe that as long as they persevere, they will be able to create a better future and make Xiangxiang Shop famous in the village.

After Xiaolan left, Shen Yan began to discuss countermeasures. She felt that after the price of snails dropped, people here might slander her reputation outside. What should she do then?

Shen Yan was worried. She knew the current situation was not optimistic. Wan Xiaolian's malicious slander might cause others to lose trust in Xiangxiang Shop and even affect their business. Therefore, she decided to take some actions to prevent possible negative impacts.

Shen Yan began to think carefully about countermeasures. She knew that the most important thing was to protect her reputation and brand image.

So she decided to strike first.

First, she plans to strengthen communication and trust with customers.

She will actively communicate with the people, explain the reasons for the price reduction of snails, and ensure that they can still get high-quality products and services.

She wants customers to understand that Xiangxiang Shop always adheres to the principle of operating with integrity and will never do anything that harms the interests of customers.

Secondly, she plans to increase control and supervision of product quality. Shen Yan decided to strictly control the quality of each batch of snails to ensure that they meet the highest standards. She wants to reassure customers that they are buying high-quality products that have been strictly screened and inspected.

Finally, she plans to improve the store's credibility and image. Shen Yan plans to increase publicity and promotion activities to let more people know about Xiangxiang Shop's business philosophy and product features. She hopes that through these efforts, she can reshape people's perception of Xiangxiang Shop and establish a better brand image.

With a clear idea in mind, Shen Yan began to implement these countermeasures.

On the second day, Sister Xiaolan discovered the problem as soon as she arrived at Shen Yan's door. It turned out that Wan Xiaolian had deliberately done something bad yesterday and dumped all the rotten snails at the door of Shen Yan's house.

This stench can be smelled from far away.

Sister Xiaolan couldn't help but scolded: "Wan Xiaolian, you shameless vicious woman, bullying a little girl, a scoundrel like you, how can you have the nerve to go to someone else's house and make a scene? Don't you think about the dirty things you did in the past? Don't let me expose them to you!"

Sister Xiaolan was merciless in her words. Since the other party had already done this, there was no need for her to save face for Wan Xiaolian anymore.

"I'm going to make this clear today. From now on, no matter what you send us, even vegetables and snails, we won't accept anything. As long as it's related to you, we'll stay away from you. You've been doing wicked things. Do you still have any shame?"

Sister Xiaolan was really angry. Just because Shen Yan was a little girl with no relatives or friends here and only a pair of younger siblings, and now that she had started a business, was she going to be bullied by others?

Looking at the stinky snails on the ground in front of the door, Sister Xiaolan was furious and scolded Wan Xiaolian for being shameless.

"Damn it, you just want money and don't want to work hard. You think our Sister Yan is easy to bully. You're always thinking about our good business and jealous of us making a lot of money. But you don't think about it. Who doesn't make money by selling their labor and skills? We all get by day by day. Why can't you tolerate others?"

Speaking of this, Sister Xiaolan felt very sorry for Shen Yan. When business was a little better, some people would be jealous and do bad things.

Everyone wants to step on it and get more benefits.

People are like this. They can't stand others doing better than they are. Friends can live well, but they can't live better than themselves.

Sister Xiaolan swept up some of the stinky snails in front of the door, but she collected most of them and put them in a bucket.

Next, she decided to give the other person a taste of his own medicine. She came to Wan Xiaolian's house, carrying a bucket of stinky snails and knocked on the door.

Seeing that it was Sister Xiaolan, Wan Xiaolian became defensive and looked at her warily: "What do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do? Do you want to think about what you did?" Sister Xiaolan scolded, "Since you don't know, why don't I teach you."

As she spoke, Sister Xiaolan sprinkled the stinky snails mixed with soup on Wan Xiaolian's body.

Although not much was splashed on her, the whole yard was stinking, and Wan Xiaolian was of course furious.

"I'm going to fight you to the death, you stinking running dog."

"Then come over here." Sister Xiaolan was not afraid of this. It was a common thing for women in the village. They would tie their hair, pull their braids, or scratch their faces at most.

Wan Xiaolian scolded her: "Xiaolan, you just like being a dog. You are Shen Yan's dog. Just for a little bit of silver, you work like a cow or a horse for her. Your whole family is like this. You are ordered around by her. After you are sold to others, you still have to help count the money."

Wan Xiaolian couldn't stand Shen Yan, so naturally she didn't like Sister Xiaolan either, because Sister Xiaolan was the one who helped Shen Yan.

Now that Shen Yan is living such a good life, she is of course jealous, so she always tries to find ways to hinder Shen Yan's business.

"Do you want to hear what you are talking about?" Sister Xiaolan didn't tolerate her at all, but immediately retorted, "I am doing this for that little bit of change, I have to support my family, right? But you, you are very dirty, if you weren't doing this for money, you would use things to fool people, if you weren't doing this for money, you would take snails to sell to Shen Yan, who would fool people with bad things like you?"

"Don't talk about how noble you are. No one is as dirty as you. If you want money but don't want to work, then go to bed as soon as possible. You can dream about anything."

Sister Xiaolan threw the bucket away and left a message, "If you continue to want to go against us and use shady tricks in secret, then keep going. I welcome you anytime."

After saying that, Sister Xiaolan left without looking back.

Looking at the yard full of dirt, Wan Xiaolian felt overwhelmed for a moment, but she also realized that Sister Xiaolan would not be easy to deal with.

On the other side of the alley, Wang Lao Da and his wife Wang Juan were watching a show. They opened the door only a crack and watched the fun secretly from behind.

Wang Juan was quite happy: "As the old saying goes, when the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman benefits. We should just watch their good show."

The couple made a fortune by purchasing some defective products at low cost and cooking expired meals.
