Chapter 13 The Cattle and Horses Who Voluntarily Signed Up
Jiang Cheng slept until the sun was high in the sky the next morning before getting up. After getting ready, he ate something downstairs and then took a taxi to Yonghui Mall.
When he left, his parents were still asleep, because those who run a late-night food business sleep late and get up late.
However, Jiang Cheng thought that the matter of finding a new store for his parents should be done as soon as possible, and it would be best to finalize it this afternoon.
Because he couldn't remember the exact date of his previous life, but he was certain that the night market street was closed before he went to university.
After the night market street was closed, my parents' shop, which is next to the commercial street and not in a good location, was not affected by the closure.
At that time, my parents thought it was a good thing for our family, since the good spots in the night market street had been blocked off, and customers could only eat at the shops next door.
But they didn't expect that just a few days after the late-night snack street was closed, the late-night snack scene on Yu Xi Road, 2 kilometers away, would become so popular.
The area that used to be a night market street has become extremely deserted. At first, there was some business, but after two or three months, it became so deserted that there were hardly any people walking around at night. My parents' shop went out of business and they could only break even.
Fortunately, Jiang Cheng went to university at that time and had already made his first fortune through the stock market, so he did not add to his family's financial burden.
But in Jiangcheng's memory, his parents aged particularly quickly in those years, which may have been largely due to the business at the store.
Jiang Cheng had also thought about earning more money and giving it to his parents so they would stop making late-night snacks.
But this wouldn't have worked in the past, let alone now. That's how the older generation is; they feel uneasy if they don't have anything to do.
Therefore, it's better to guide than to block. Jiang Cheng felt he had to take the initiative and find a store on the new night market street, Yuxi Road, so he could hand it over to his parents before he went to university, which would put an end to the matter.
Thinking about this on the way, I got off the bus at the roadside of the square in front of Yonghui Shopping Mall.
I received a call as soon as I got off the bus. It was from my classmate Chen Haoming.
Jiang Cheng is no stranger to Benny Chan; he was a good friend of his during high school.
The two were close not only because they were classmates, but also because Jiang Cheng's father worked at Chen Haomin's family's small restaurant before opening his own late-night snack shop, so the two played together when they were in elementary school.
"Jiang Cheng, are you up yet? We agreed to play games together at the internet cafe today. We're already here." Chen Haomin's voice came from the phone.
Jiang Cheng couldn't remember when she had made plans to go to the internet cafe with Benny Chan, but that didn't matter.
"You guys have fun, I won't go, I have things to do."
"What are you doing? The college entrance exam is over. Don't tell me you still want to study. I won't listen to that excuse!"
"make money."
"Make money?? Jiang Cheng, are you kidding me? You can make money?"
beep...
Jiang Cheng hung up the phone immediately. Earning this money was exhausting. He worked himself to the bone all day to earn 2000 yuan. Was it something to be proud of?
Does it need further explanation?
Jiang Cheng felt it would be embarrassing to explain.
But after the call ended, it came back very quickly.
"Hey! Don't hang up! You're making money off me, right, bro?!"
Take you?
"Very tired."
"Jiang Cheng, I'm not happy with what you're saying. Have you ever seen Chen Haomin as someone who can't endure hardship?"
"You'll give up halfway through."
"Jiang Cheng, you're insulting me. I treated you like a brother, and you look down on me? So this is how you see me..."
Well, they were born to be beasts of burden...
Come to Yonghui Mall.
……
On the 5th floor of Yonghui Mall, in Shen Youqing's office, she had arrived at Yonghui Mall very early today.
I've gone downstairs twice already, and the open space in front of the gate is empty; I haven't seen Jiang Cheng.
She didn't feel comfortable asking Liu Qiang or Chen Guodong why Jiang Cheng hadn't arrived yet. Actually, when she thought about it carefully, it seemed like it wouldn't hurt to ask, but for some reason, she just couldn't bring herself to do it.
At this moment, I felt uneasy, and I didn't feel good no matter what.
To say she cared that much about Jiangcheng wouldn't be accurate, but she was always concerned about him.
The main problem is that this little guy told me in person yesterday that he wanted to flirt with me.
Shen Youqing had almost never heard such words before, because many boys wanted to get close to her, but everyone seemed to be wearing a mask, trying to act like a gentleman or a gentleman in front of her. But no one was so blatant, just like the melodramatic encounter in a TV series.
In fact, these days, people from all walks of life are influenced by movies and TV dramas, since there aren't many other forms of entertainment available.
But girls like Shen Youqing, who don't seem to belong to the ordinary category, are rarely treated the way they are in TV dramas, because it would feel very outdated.
Especially since the guy who said he wanted to flirt with her yesterday was still considered a little brother by her.
"Youqing, I was just saying I wanted to have breakfast with you, why are you at the company so early today?"
Shen Youqing, whose thoughts were wandering aimlessly, was interrupted by a voice. She looked up and saw that it was her best friend Ye Lingxi walking into the office.
Ye Lingxi was his college classmate, but after graduating from college, he did not take the postgraduate entrance examination and chose to go home to his father's factory.
She came to see her this time on behalf of the factory. Yesterday, she went with Ye Lingxi to apply for a business license. She was originally waiting for Ye Lingxi downstairs, but she left early because of Jiang Cheng.
"I had some things to take care of at the company, so I came first."
Ye Lingxi looked surprised, walked to the desk, pulled out a chair next to Shen Youqing, sat down, and said, "Have you suddenly become so enthusiastic about your work?"
"I've always been a very proactive worker, okay...."
Shen Youqing wasn't making this up; she was indeed very proactive in her work. However, it seemed like she wasn't cut out for it. After working hard at Yonghui Mall for a month or two, she ultimately concluded that it was better to just lie down and do nothing.
"By the way, your shop's business license is ready. When do you plan to open?" Shen Youqing asked.
Upon being asked this, Ye Lingxi's slightly chubby, adorable face, which also possessed a touch of allure, immediately fell silent: "In a couple of days..."
Seeing her expression, Shen Youqing sighed and said, "Don't rush, take it slow."
Ye Lingxi shook her head and said, "There might not be time to take it slow anymore. Things were going well before, but an order that was agreed upon a long time ago has to be cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. This could be considered our last big order..."
It's already difficult to have no large orders, but because of this order, we still have a huge amount of inventory.
Now all the bags, shoes, and belts are piling up in the warehouse, completely unsellable. And in just two weeks, the bank loan of three million will be due…”
