"Now a lot of customers will come to my shop, and there will be a lot of sales," Damru said happily.
"Congratulations, Damru! Finally, you have opened your shop. I wish you all the best for your new venture," Cheeku rabbit greeted Damru as he passed by the shop.
"Thank you, Cheeku! I'm just trying to make sure that customers also come in," replied Damru.
"Damru, you are worrying unnecessarily. There are only a few shops selling electrical goods in Champakvan, so your shop will do well," Cheeku comforted him, patting his back, and then left.
Damru soon started cleaning it. It was only a matter of time before Jumbo elephant arrived.
"Welcome to my shop, 'Damru's Electronics.' How can I assist you?" Damru asked eagerly.
"Show me a 56-inch TV," Jumbo said.
"Sorry, but I don't have a 56-inch TV. If you want anything else, I can show it to you immediately," Damru quickly responded.
"No, I have to buy a TV," Jumbo irritably said, and he left.
After Jumbo left, Baddy and Ricky fox came to Damru's shop.
"Damru, give us a black juicer," Baddy said.
"No, give me a red one! Red is my favorite colour!" Ricky shouted, opposing Baddy, and they started arguing with each other.
"Calm down, please! I cannot give you a juicer of any colour because I don't have them in my shop," Damru said apologetically.
"You should have told us earlier! We spent our energy arguing unnecessarily," Baddy and Ricky shouted in unison at him and left.
In the evening, Meeku mouse came to Damru's shop.
