Well, the @products you get in the views is actually defined in your controllers actions (ProductsController /controllers/products_controller.rb) you have to define @products in an action of your 'SecondController'

you can start by first looking at the index or show actions of ProductsController, and check some tutorials or books.

You need to define it in the action you're using

If you want to use it in /store/an_action, add in the controller :

def an_action
  @products = Product.all # for instance
end
