Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 194: The Temptations of the Adult World

TL: Etude

After finishing his grilled sausage, Jiang Qin let his snake game character crash into a wall. Looking up, he noticed that most of the managers who had gone shopping were back.

He waved his hand, leading everyone back to the Wanzhong Mall.

Having seen everything, I believe you all have many ideas now. Try writing another proposal, he suggested.

Of course, Consultant Jiang!

Inspired, the managers quickly drafted a new reform outline, a stark contrast to their previous struggle of producing only a few words in seven days.

It was evident they had ideas brimming in their minds, uncontrollably eager to burst out.

Very good.

Quite impressive.

Jiang Qin skimmed through their outlines, nodding subtly.

The supermarket and fresh produce on the basement level, cosmetics and jewelry on the first floor, clothing, home goods, and various retail shops on the second floor, food street and hot pot restaurants on the third floor, and the cinema, KTV, and gaming center on the fourth.

Taking inspiration from the commercial street, the managers new functional zoning for the mall was comprehensive.

The next step was to implement these changes floor by floor, gradually replacing low-profit ventures with new ones. Once done, everything would be in place.

With this, Jiang Qins consulting work was effectively complete, and he could gracefully exit, having successfully accomplished his task.

A stroll around the block and a grilled sausage had earned him a substantial consultant fee in just over an hour, without any guilt.

Damn, doing business is easy. If only theres more of this.

Of course, Jiang Qins involvement in Wanzhong Malls reform wasnt solely for the consultancy fee. He had his own ulterior motives.

Once the reform was complete, Wanzhong would become Linchuans largest comprehensive entertainment mall, opening the door for his group-buying service.

Wanzhongs hot pot restaurants, cinemas, clothing, and cosmetic stores all these varied shops would eventually integrate into his group-buying service. Online coupons, in-store discounts the prospects were delightful.

He Yijun could rapidly gather popularity through online channels, focus on small profits but high turnover, initially earn reputation, and stabilize the malls target audience.

Meanwhile, Jiang Qin could ride this momentum, expanding towards the city centers business district and using the contacts from the Linchuan business banquet to tie up with other merchants.

By then, not just a university town, but perhaps even the whole Linchuan market could be within reach.

Thats how business works. No money or connections? Use others resources to your advantage. The best part is they end up thanking you for it.

A win-win situation indeed!

Brother Jiang, its 3 PM. If we dont head back now, itll be dark by the time I get home. My moms waiting for me to have dinner, Guo Zihang suddenly muttered beside him.

Jiang Qin glanced at him, his mind still soaring from the big deal he had just closed. Guos mention of dinner with his mom seemed out of place.

Then he remembered, he was just an ordinary college student on vacation, preparing to head home.

What time is it exactly?

Three fifteen, replied Guo Zihang.

Nodding, Jiang Qin stood up. Manager Yue, we need to leave now. Itll be dark by the time we get home.

Manager Yue hastily stood up. Mr. He just texted me. Hes finished his meeting and is on his way. Please wait a little longer, Mr. Jiang.

Well, then lets wait a bit more, Jiang Qin decided, sitting back down.

He didnt want He Yijun to feel the consultancy fee was wasted. This was about the importance of after-sales service. You cant just impress; you have to ensure the client feels secure in their investment.

Honest and reliable businessmen like him were rare these days.

Three minutes later, He Yijun hurried into the meeting room, looking rushed and somewhat weary from his meeting with suppliers. The thought of the unfinished reform plan added to his fatigue.

Faced with his own problems, could Jiang Qin really offer a solution?

Although Jiang was unusually talented, he had never actually managed a physical business. Could his theoretical knowledge truly pave a golden path for He Yijun?

With a solemn expression, He Yijun pushed open the door of the meeting room.

In his mind, he had pictured Zhao Zuchang smoking one cigarette after another, Bao Wenping scratching his head wearily, everyone deep in thought.

To his surprise, as soon as he stepped in, the managers, brimming with enthusiasm, surrounded him.

Mr. He, I have an idea!

Mr. He, I have one too! Damn, Im brimming with inspiration.

Ive listed ten major business adjustment details for your review.

Ive drawn a rough sketch of the functional area reforms. Could you check if anything is amiss?

Receiving the rough drafts, He Yijun was overwhelmed: Mr. Jiang, you must have really hit it off with them, right?

Jiang Qin shook his head lightly, speaking calmly: I just provided a bit of guidance, thats all.

Unbelievable, damn unbelievable.

He Yijun, holding the outlines and sketches, grew increasingly excited as he examined them.

His years of business experience told him these ideas were feasible.

The problems he couldnt handle with his own daughter, Jiang could.

The reforms he couldnt achieve, Jiang could.

Damn, a prodigious talent!

He Yijun wouldnt let Jiang leave now. He instructed Zhao Zuchang to arrange a lavish dinner, singing, dancing, massages, and even allocated a budget, insisting they shouldnt return until it was all spent.

Zhao Zuchang, an expert in such matters, immediately planned to take Jiang Qin and Guo Zihang to Juxianlou for a feast.

Old Guo, are you coming?

Lets go after dinner. Its fine if it gets dark. Im afraid of getting hungry on the way.

After leaving Juxianlou, Zhao called a salesperson and secured a booth in the entertainment citys bar.

Old Guo, are you coming?

Lets leave after having fun. Even if its dawn, its okay, we can sleep in.

After more than an hour in the bar, Zhao Zuchang suggested they go sing.

Old Guo, are you coming?

Its too late today, driving at night isnt safe. Lets leave tomorrow.

After singing, Zhao expertly took them to a flashy and special foot massage parlor.

This time, Jiang Qin declined, and Guo Zihang blushed, refusing as well.

They had seen enough of the world for one day. Guos head was spinning, and he couldnt stop thinking about the cheongsam-clad ladies and their swaying legs. He felt he was about to break.

Old Zhao, thanks for today, but weve had enough fun. You should also head home to rest.

Jiang Qin spoke as they left the bar, standing at the roadside, feeling the cool night breeze.

Mr. Jiang, we cant do that. The budget Mr. He allocated isnt spent yet.

Zhao Zuchang looked troubled.

We have a journey ahead tomorrow, and were really too tired to continue. Maybe some other time.

Well, okay then

At night, in the Longkai International Hotel.

Weary, Jiang Qin entered his room, turned on the light, and opened the window, letting the cool night air refresh him.

Although the night outside was dark, the neon signs of the entertainment street were still flashing non-stop, lighting up the sky.

On the street, a few drunken people staggered along, supporting each other. Their noisy chatter was audible even two streets away.

In his room, Guo Zihang was curiously inspecting everything, spending a long time studying the massage bathtub in the bathroom. He took several photos with his phone, his face filled with wonder.

Old Guo, how do you feel after hanging out with Manager Zhao today?

Guos face turned red: I cant stop thinking about the karaoke hostesss white legs

Jiang Qin, lying on the bed propped up by a pillow and covered with a blanket, said, See? The adult world is full of temptations. You must learn to resist these urges and not be easily corrupted.

I get it, Brother Jiang. Being an adult isnt easy. I almost gave in several times and let myself be manipulated.

Its not that hard. Look at me, I didnt even glance sideways the whole time, Jiang boasted arrogantly.

Guo snorted, Youre always with Feng Nanshu; of course, your standards are high. But for me, those were deadly temptations.

Its not about being with a rich girl. My unwavering stance is due to my upright heart and higher tastes!

Yeah right, I dont believe you. Youre an old hand at this, completely unfazed when you entered. I was completely lost, didnt even know what to do.

After speaking, Guo suddenly remembered something: Right, Brother Jiang, did you call home?

Jiang nodded: I did, and got scolded. My mom told me not to come back and said shed give my room to the dog.

Same here. My mom prepared a whole table of dishes, and she was upset when she heard I wasnt coming back.

Whose fault is that? I said we should go back, but you got all excited about going out, brighter than a heater lamp.

Jiang spat at him, contemptuous of his inability to resist temptation.

Thats not my fault. Ive never experienced it before; of course, I was curious.

Guo grumbled and turned on the TV with the remote.

The nighttime channels were full of shopping ads, no regular shows, except for cartoons. They settled on watching Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf, a stark contrast to the earlier scenes of women in cheongsams.

One moment it was alluring women, and the next, innocent cartoons under blue skies and white clouds. Jiang felt the surreal contrast between fantasy and reality.

Was this a kind of charming contrast?

He smacked his lips, went to take a shower, and then lay comfortably on the bed.

Brother Jiang, what time are we leaving tomorrow?

After breakfast, around seven oclock.
