Old John lay in bed for three days and three nights, and in his daze he heard someone say, "Increase the potion," or "Sleep more, and you will be charged more for hospitalization."
emm…
Who said such outrageous things?
Akina Hospital?
Impossible. Akina Hospital is the most famous, most service-minded, and most ethical hospital here. How could you say such a thing?
Maybe it's a dream.
Old John rubbed his head.
I don't know why, but my head feels a little dizzy and confused.
I just vaguely remember that I went shopping in Akina, saw a lot of novel shops, ate delicious skewers, and finally fell into a coma after shopping for a while and participating in some activities.
I seem to still remember that I felt very confident about this event and that I would definitely win in the end.
but……
Forget it, the process is not important, the process is important.
As Old John was lying on the hospital bed, he roughly understood the reason why the old market was not as good as the Akina Pedestrian Street.
The reason is that we are still stuck in our ways, with the same old set of products, the same old environment, and the same old model.
Although the old one has certain guarantees.
But for tourists, what attracts them is always novelty.
Novel products, novel skewers, sashimi, barbecue, etc., and even some underground world things that are new to you.
It was enough to arouse strong curiosity among these tourists.
There are things in the old market and pedestrian streets, but there are still things in the pedestrian streets that are not in the old market.
Hey~
At this moment, the gap between the old market and the pedestrian street can be said to be like the gap between goblins and Satan.
It can't be compared at all.
Old John regretted very much at this moment. He regretted that he had ignored the other housekeeper's invitation, stuck to his complacency, and chose to continue to stay in the old market.
If nothing else happens, this time, and even subsequent tourists, their goal will only be to head towards Akina Pedestrian Street and directly abandon the old market.
This is fate.
Because the original old market also occupied the passenger flow center of Late Winter City in this way.
Hey~ Old John has also experienced it.
Therefore, he is still very open-minded about the decline of the old market.
After all, he is getting older, and even if there is no pedestrian street, he will not be able to work for long before he can enter a peaceful retirement life.
but……
"Damn, they just went too far! They opened another street above the old market to attract customers. It's just superfluous!"
A familiar voice interrupted Old John's thoughts.
When I turned around, I saw Harry, a young boy from the doll shop next door.
Old John is very familiar with him.
After all, their shops are less than ten meters apart.
It's a bit strange, why is he here? And he's injured?
"Harry, what's the matter with your injury? It doesn't look like you were hit by cargo." Old John asked doubtfully.
"Huh?" Harry, who was cursing and mumbling, suddenly heard Old John's voice and was startled subconsciously.
Slowly turning his head, the two people met each other's eyes.
"Old John? Why are you here? Are you also participating in the parade? Why didn't I see you?"
"A demonstration? What is this? Please tell me in detail."
Old John's heart tightened, as if he had missed a lot of things during his coma.
How many days had he been in a coma?
Harry scratched his injured head and slowly told what happened in the past two days.
It turned out that two days had passed since Old John took a break, and the number of customers in the old market was getting fewer and fewer day by day, and there was no one even looking at it.
On the first day, everyone actually felt that something was wrong and were just comforting themselves.
But now the situation is getting worse and worse, which naturally forces these shop owners to take action and find ways to remedy the situation, or to know the reasons for this situation.
After investigation, we found out that all the tourists went to the Akina Pedestrian Street area.
Good guy, Akina Pedestrian Street!
In the past, some people invited them to open a store there, but no one was optimistic about this place, so they chose to refuse.
I just didn't expect that this pedestrian street would turn into a popular place full of tourists.
It's really incredible.
This made many people blush.
Some people started to have small ideas and began to encourage others to go to Akina to talk and said they were willing to open a shop in the pedestrian street.
This idea was approved by everyone.
After all, the current customer flow is all in Akina, and only by opening a store in Akina can you make money.
They had invited me before, and although they were rejected by me, but now that I have taken the initiative to go there, I would not refuse them compared to the other party.
The best thing to do is to be more sincere and lower your demands.
I just didn't expect that the negotiations had collapsed from the beginning.
Because people in Akina know that these people probably come to them because they see benefits.
Otherwise, the birds will definitely not bird themselves.
Therefore, we simply rejected everyone’s proposals on the grounds that there were no idle shops or venues in Akina Pedestrian Street.
Of course, this is just an excuse.
This is Akina's excuse for rejecting everyone.
The other party refused so happily, which made the people in the old market surprised and also very dissatisfied.
The breakdown of negotiations means that people in the old market must take other actions to keep their businesses.
After much deliberation, I could only go on a tour and report it to the relevant departments in Late Winter City to solve this problem.
We hope to achieve healthy competition. This kind of behavior that robs all the customers at once and leaves no way for others to survive must be resisted and controlled.
It's a pity that neither the swimming line nor the reaction have any effect.
Even when Harry was holding a flag in a parade, he was beaten up by some angry diners.
Because there were too many people beaten at that time, he didn't know how hard he hit them.
In order to avoid being hit hard again, Harry fled quickly.
And came to Akina Hospital for treatment.
After listening to Harry's story, Old John sighed.
Hey~
If I were here, I would definitely discourage such behavior, because their behavior is meaningless and can only be a waste of effort.
