Chapter 99: Regretting Passing Up the Driving School Opportunity (Please Subscribe!!)

TL: Etude

College students are known for their efficiency and work capabilities, often outperforming some of the more seasoned professionals in society. Therefore, in the days that followed, everyone began working on the next phase of their tasks, each aiming towards a set goal.

“The boss, this is Xu Yu, the new finance person. She’s a junior from the School of Business and Commerce.”

“Boss, Sister Xu Yu has already sorted out the last month’s sales data for the Xi Tian Milk Tea Shop.”

“…”

“Boss, Sister Xu Yu stayed up all night to finish the sales report for Xi Tian.”

The milk tea shop was small, so the sales data was straightforward to handle. It only required matching each day’s sales volume with the unit price and comparing it with previous sales data. Thanks to Xu Yu’s dedication and responsibility, the report was quickly and freshly prepared.

“Take this to the other merchants and let them see what they’ve missed out on,” Jiang Qin instructed Wei Lanlan to distribute the sales report.

Wei Lanlan couldn’t help but smack her lips, “The boss speaks so domineeringly.”

“Work, don’t flatter.”

“?”

Soon, the Xi Tian’s report, through Wei Lanlan and Tan Qing, reached various merchants who were observing from the sidelines, truly shocking them.

The booming business of the Xi Tian Milk Tea Shop was evident to all, but without concrete data, no one dared to believe that the profits could reach six figures.

Remember, the sponsorship fee paid by Xi Tian initially was only eighty thousand yuan, so saying their profits doubled was an many optimists believed that it would take Xi Tian about half a year to recoup their investment and then slowly start making a profit.

But upon seeing this sales report, it became clear that this was not a slow and steady stream of income; it was more like a surging wave.

Moreover, the tea shop had only one staff member who was tirelessly preparing milk tea, struggling to keep up with demand. Under such circumstances, the advertising effect on Zhihu was somewhat terrifying.

As a result, everyone started to take notice and flocked to the Entrepreneurship Center.

It turned out that Jiang Qin really had a forward-thinking vision.

He had just cleaned and arranged room 207 after getting the key from the general office. That very evening, it played a significant role.

The once quiet and cold Entrepreneurship Center became noisy and lively in an instant, attracting individual merchants from Front Square, nearby KTVs and internet cafes, restaurants on the walking street, and even cinemas and shopping malls from the city center.

Cao Xinyue stood in the corridor on the second floor, watching the crowd and couldn’t help but be amazed.

She remembered the first time Jiang Qin walked into the general office to apply for entrepreneurial support, she really didn’t think much of it.

But in just a month, after a school beauty contest, this forum had become a hot commodity that everyone wanted a piece of.

Could it be that making money was indeed better than falling in love?

“Huh…”

After the evening, as the sky darkened, Jiang Qin, having debated with a group of merchants for over three hours, felt somewhat dazed. So he stepped out of room 207 to get some air by the window.

Wei Lanlan followed him out, her eyes filled with a bit more respect.

Eighteen merchants, not a single one left empty-handed, and all deals were struck at the highest asking price. The boss’s rapid-fire negotiation skills were like a machine gun, both swift and powerful. It was hard to imagine how his wife coped with it.

“Boss, why don’t you take a break?”

“Yeah, go order some food. I’ll eat here tonight,” Jiang Qin let out a breath.

Wei Lanlan nodded and walked towards the door, disappearing into the night.

However, Jiang Qin was destined not to have a peaceful meal because just as the food arrived, the manager of the Tongxing Driving School came in person.

They had previously missed the golden opportunity to sponsor the school beauty contest due to a lack of trust in the forum, inadvertently handing the ripe fruit to Xi Tian. Although they didn’t voice it, there was certainly some regret in their hearts.

Eighty thousand, just eighty thousand yuan. Why were they so hesitant to spend it at the time? This visit was an attempt to replicate the success of the school beauty contest, hoping to make up for their previous oversight.

“President Jiang, Tongxing Driving School is willing to sponsor 120,000 yuan for another competition. What do you think?” suggested Mr. Niu, the manager of Tongxing Driving School. With his rugged appearance and booming voice, he was unmistakably a local from Linchuan.

“Manager Niu, what kind of competition are you thinking of?” Jiang Qin asked as he wiped his mouth and sat down, accepting the water handed to him by Wei Lanlan.

“How about a school hunk contest? We can fully sponsor it, and if the money isn’t enough, we can negotiate further.”

Jiang Qin considered it for a moment then shook his head. “Let’s not do a school hunk contest. No one can beat me in that area.”

Mr. Niu was taken aback, thinking to himself that while Jiang Qin’s success with the website was commendable, his sense of direction seemed a bit off.

“President Jiang is indeed very handsome, but you can choose not to participate!” Manager Niu said, though not quite sincerely.

Jiang Qin still shook his head. “That won’t do. If I don’t participate, how can the contest be fair? And how will the winner gain respect?”

“That makes sense,” Mr. Niu muttered, chuckling awkwardly. After pondering for a while, he realized that Jiang Qin was politely declining his offer without harming their rapport.

Here was a clear business opportunity, yet Jiang Qin was able to stop abruptly. Mr. Niu couldn’t tell if Jiang had smaller ambitions or other plans in mind.

But the conversation had reached its end, and any further discussion seemed pointless. Mr. Niu left, feeling a bit reluctant. If he hadn’t rejected the collaboration initially, how much would Tongxing Driving School have profited by now?

Then, an idea struck him. Wasn’t there an old forum at the school?

Manager Niu, just as he stepped out of the Entrepreneurship Center, had a sudden flash of insight. If Jiang Qin wasn’t interested in organizing a school hunk contest, then he, Manager Niu, would find someone else. After all, it was all just a gimmick, and someone else’s attempt might not necessarily be less effective than Jiang’s.

Furthermore, when girls chase after their male idols, they tend to be even more fervent than boys pursuing their female crushes.

The more Manager Niu thought about it, the more it made sense. He decided to change his direction and talk to the administrator of the old forum to explore possible collaboration.

Actually, Jiang Qin was indeed not interested in organizing another competition. The forum’s registration had significantly dropped to a low point after the school beauty contest, indicating that Linchuan University’s market was saturated.

There are only so many students at the school, and repeatedly holding contests won’t continuously increase registration.

Organizing another contest in such a saturated state would be a waste of resources and unlikely to yield good results.

So, his next targets were the University of Science and Technology, the University of Technology, and the Normal College, where the markets were still unexplored, and even a small stone could cause ripples.

But since Tongxing Driving School was located inside Linchuan University, Manager Niu would not be interested in sponsoring events at other schools, making this business negotiation essentially null.

Exhausted, Jiang Qin returned to Room 208 to continue eating, thinking to himself that he was too tired to meet anyone else. He wouldn’t even meet the Jade Emperor!

“Jiang Qin, take me out for a walk.”

A silly, chubby tabby cat appeared on the screen, jumping happily.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Qin pushed his boxed meal aside and dragged his weary body out of the Entrepreneurship Center.
