"By the way, Natya, hang the signboard up at the door."
With that, Wang Teng took out a signboard from his storage soul tool.
Since he was going to open a business, the shop naturally needed a name.
"Okay."
Soon, Wang Teng's potion shop had a name:
"Ordinary Little Shop. "
This name was simple and unpretentious; compared to the other "flashy" shops on the street, Wang Teng intended to go for a "pure" image.
Looking at the signboard at their door, Chunhua and the other four were speechless. What kind of shop would have such a name?
"What's wrong? Is the name I chose bad?"
Wang Teng was puzzled. This name, once seen, would definitely not be easily forgotten, which would have a great publicity effect, making people want to come in and take a look.
Looking at Wang Teng, Chunhua and the other five didn't say much. After all, Wang Teng was their future boss, and they couldn't afford to displease him, otherwise, what if he gave them a hard time?
"By the way, Natya. From now on, the 'Ordinary Little Shop' will open at 9 AM every day. It will close when the daily limited quantity is sold out; if not, it will close at 5 PM. Don't keep potions and gold soul coins in the shop, lest someone come and rob you."
In other words, if the potion business is booming, it might be open until almost closing time each day. Moreover, Wang Teng was thinking that if the potion business was booming, he wouldn't sell soul tools anymore. After all, soul tools are very effective at improving strength, and Wang Teng didn't want to launch a large-scale operation to avoid aiding the enemy.
"Okay."
It could be said that the 'Ordinary Little Shop,' although it looked quite large at 200 square meters, would sell very little, at most only 7 potions per day.
After giving these instructions, Wang Teng gave Chunhua and the other four 100 gold soul coins to buy daily necessities. After hanging a sign announcing the shop's opening the next day, Wang Teng left with Natya.
They weren't ready yet and planned to open tomorrow.
...
That evening, Prince Xue Xing rushed to the palace and found Emperor Xue Ye.
"Your Majesty, there's news about that unfamiliar Title Douluo."
"Oh? Tell me, which faction does he belong to?"
"I haven't found out, but there was a child with him at the time, and we've found out the child's identity."
"Who?"
"Wang Teng, the eldest son of Wang Chengkun, the commander of the Second Legion of the military."
"Wang Chengkun's son?"
Emperor Xue Ye's eyes widened. He hadn't expected that the Title Douluo would be accompanied by the son of one of his subordinates? So their relationship was very good?
In that case, it wasn't impossible to win over this Title Douluo to the Heaven Dou Empire.
Wang Teng had anticipated that the Heaven Dou Empire would discover his relationship with Natya, after all, this was Heaven Dou City, a place closely monitored by the royal intelligence.
Since Wang Teng didn't try to hide it, finding out was naturally very easy.
"Where does that Title Douluo live?"
"At Wang Chengkun's house, and it seems that Title Douluo also owns a shop called 'Ordinary Little Shop'!"
"What?! Ordinary Little Shop? What a terrible name!"
"Um, Your Majesty, I think it's not bad! I thought the same thing as you before, but the name is easy to remember. Basically, once you hear it, you won't forget this bizarre shop name."
"Hmm, now that you mention it, it makes sense!"
Emperor Xueye thought about it, and it really was true; it was indeed memorable.
"By the way, you said the Title Douluo owned a little shop?"
Emperor Xueye realized the key point.
"Yes!"
"What do you sell?"
"I don't know, we're not open yet, we'll have to wait until tomorrow."
"Then tomorrow, take some time to represent the Heavenly Dou Royal Family and deliver a congratulatory gift!"
"Yes!"
...
The next morning, after finishing the day's dungeon, Wang Teng brought Natya to the 'Ordinary Little Shop'.
"Very good, Natya, get ready to open for business!"
"..."
Natya's face immediately darkened. Couldn't they speak properly?
There was a curse he didn't know if he could say, but if Natya didn't consider Wang Teng his boss, he would have beaten him to a pulp.
More than an hour passed, and Wang Teng sat in his shop, feeling a little depressed.
This was completely different from what he had imagined! He had been sitting there for more than an hour, and not a single customer had come to visit, let alone buy anything.
"Young Master, is it because nobody knows what we sell that nobody comes in?"
Natya reminded him from the side.
"Hmm~, you make a good point."
Wang Teng thought for a moment. The reason no one was coming was probably because he had never done publicity work before.
However, there were no newspapers, television, or the internet on Douluo Continent, so how could he publicize?
After a long while, Wang Teng remembered the "ID Card" posters plastered all over the streets and alleys in his previous life: "
ID Card - 152XXXXXXXX". That's right, those little posters.
Soon, Wang Teng gave Chunhua a few instructions, gave her some gold soul coins, and Chunhua went out.
Wang Teng thought, having Chunhua print the posters and then find someone to plaster them all over the streets and alleys of Tiandou City, wouldn't that be even more effective than the posters in his previous life?
Anyway, the Tiandou Empire didn't have a rule against plastering posters. Chunhua acted quickly, found a printing workshop, and soon got a large stack of posters.
—An ordinary little shop, selling life and soul power recovery potions, which can restore half of a soul master's life or soul power. Limited quantity, preferential price, first come first served! Address: XXXXXX.
Then Chunhua hired a group of children to plaster the entire city of Tiandou with little stickers. For the kids, this also earned them some pocket money from selling candy! They were thrilled.
...
At this time, Ning Fengzhi arrived in Tiandou City with Sword Douluo Chen Xin. Because his family's inherited martial soul—the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda—could sense treasures, Ning Fengzhi often managed to find bargains at the Tiandou Grand Auction House.
In addition, the Heaven Dou Grand Auction House has many good items, and due to the limitations of his own martial soul on soul power, Ning Fengzhi's soul power level can no longer be improved.
Since he no longer needs to cultivate, he has more free time, and gradually, Ning Fengzhi has become a regular at the Heaven Dou Grand Auction House.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi was leading Chen Xin through the gates of Heaven Dou City, preparing to visit the Heaven Dou Grand Auction House, when he suddenly saw two children sticking something on the roadside.
One child was carrying glue and a brush, brushing it on the wall, while the other child was sticking on a piece of paper with some large characters written on it:
"An ordinary little shop selling life and soul power recovery potions, capable of restoring half of a soul master's life or soul power. Limited quantity, preferential prices, first come, first served! Address: XXXXXX."
