The big boss? This piqued the curiosity of several women.
Liu Mei scoffed disdainfully, "Unsophisticated fools, do you think running a shop makes someone a big boss? Only someone as inexperienced as you would think that. There are plenty of shopkeepers in town, some make money and, naturally, some don't. Liu Xianshu's daughter, no matter how capable she is, is at best a small-time boss. Dream on about her becoming a big boss!"
The talking woman failed to notice the expression on Liu Mei's face and patted Lady Liu's hand, excitedly saying on her own, "You all don't know, right? What's the most famous shop in town now?"
"Fuman Building?"
"Jin Ji Vinegar Workshop?"
Each suggestion was met with the woman's shake of the head and a smile.
