"Since we don't have any new designs, we don't have new customers, and our old customers left us too.
"But Miss Lin, I don't want to trouble you with our story. Just take a look and see if there's anything you like. I'll show them to you." The assistant put away his sad expression and immediately introduced them enthusiastically.
This was how the world worked. You could be chased out at one place, but you'd be welcome at another. One shouldn't look down on others because that person might just be a diamond in the rough. In the future, you'd only be able to see them shine from a distance.
Lin Yuelan decided to help this shop because the owner and assistant had good characters. Then again, it would be mutually beneficial. Lin Yuelan would use this opportunity to teach others some lessons too.
Lin Yuelan asked, "Assistant, is the shopkeeper here?"
The assistant was puzzled, but his tone was a little anxious as he asked, "Miss Lin, why are you looking for the shopkeeper? Or are you dissatisfied with me? If there is a problem with my service, please just tell me and I can correct my mistakes. The madam is sick, and she needs the shopkeeper to stay by her side. He can't leave."
Lin Yuelan was stunned. This was the most touching thing she had heard since she transmigrated here. For this reason alone, she decided to help them.
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said, "I'm not dissatisfied. On the contrary, I'm very satisfied with your service. You're just working here, but you're so loyal to your boss. I'm impressed."
The assistant was a little embarrassed as he said, "It's because the shopkeeper is a good person. When I was down on my luck, it was the shopkeeper who gave me a bowl of rice and asked me to help with the work in the shop so that I could have a place to live. I will never forget the great kindness of the shopkeeper."

Lin Yuelan raised her eyebrows. "I see." Immediately, she repeated. "You should ask your shopkeeper to come to see me. Just tell him that I have a way to revive Jinyun Ge."
The assistant's eyes lit up when he heard that. He didn't care if Lin Yuelan was telling the truth or not and immediately ran to the back to find the shopkeeper.
After the shopkeeper came out, Lin Yuelan sized him up. He was an old man in his forties or fifties with a kind face, but his face was a little haggard.
The shopkeeper looked at the two children and asked, "Miss, are you looking for me?"
Lin Yuelan nodded and said, "Shopkeeper, I heard that you're going to sell this shop, right?"
The shopkeeper glanced at the assistant, who had his head lowered, and said with a dispirited expression, "yes, miss. I'm sure you've heard some things by now. The business of this shop isn't good at all now, and my wife has been sick for a while, so she needs money and care. So, I plan to sell this shop and get some money for my wife's treatment. "
The shopkeeper said honestly.
After hearing this, Lin Yuelan went straight to the point, "I won't hide it from you, shopkeeper. I want to buy your shop!"
As soon as she said this, not only the shopkeeper and the assistant were stunned, but even little twelve was also confused. They were supposed to buy clothes and fabrics. How did they end up buying a whole shop?
Honestly, the shopkeeper didn't really want to sell the shop. He had been running it for 30 years. The shop was like a child to him.
Before his wife fell sick, he had planned to hang in there no matter how bad his business was. However, everything changed after his wife fell sick.

The expenses were like a bottomless pit. In a short time, he had almost used up all his savings of more than 30 years. In addition, the business of Jinyun Ge was declining day by day thanks Xiangyun Ge. Sometimes, he couldn't even make ends meet. The shopkeeper had no choice but to consider selling the shop. But he really couldn't bring himself to part with it.
But now, a young woman girl said that she wanted to buy his shop, and he immediately felt that it was unbelievable.
Was this a joke?
