Chapter 182: Is the Little Rich Girl Pretending to Be Dumb?

Jiang Qin really didn’t have time to deal with any romantic matters. At most, he would give some advice, but whether the other party listened or not was none of his business. Then he would turn around and forget about everything that happened that night.

Early the next morning at Xitian Milk Tea Shop.

After systematic training, Xiao Gao officially started work. A set of continuous moves resulted in all sorts of mishaps, scaring the little rich girl who kept wanting to hide in Jiang Qin’s arms.

“Yes, great job smashing my milk tea machine to pieces. Don’t leave a single one alive!”

Jiang Qin sat in front of the bar with a face full of sarcasm.

“That’s strange. I clearly did it this way when I learned yesterday?!”

Gao Wenhui was puzzled, not sure where the problem was.

“Hey, can you find a cup to catch it first? Look, it’s about to spurt out!”

“Oh, oh.”

Jiang Qin facepalmed in despair, “It’s fine, come with confidence. At worst, you can be a full-time nanny at my house later to pay off the debt with labor.”

Feng Nanshu puffed her cheeks and looked at him, “Then Wenhui can accompany me to play every day.”

“?”

After a while, the current store manager Hu Xin hurried over, resolved the chaos on site, wiped the operating table clean with a rag, and demonstrated the operating procedures to Gao Wenhui once again, including the use of various machines.

“It turns out my brain learned it before, but my hands haven’t learned it yet.” Gao Wenhui quickly found an excuse to cover up the awkwardness.

Jiang Qin took a deep breath, thinking to himself that Xiao Gao was sometimes even more shameless than him, “Our milk tea branch is already in preparation. Hu Xin will definitely be sent out, so you have to seize the time to familiarize yourself with the process.”

“The milk tea shops at the University of Technology and Normal University? When will they open?”

“The time is not yet certain, but it will probably be after the winter vacation.” Jiang Qin twirled a straw in his hand.

After hearing this, Gao Wenhui looked disdainful, “There’s still such a long time? With my IQ, can I still not learn it?”

“You think your IQ is very high? Come, let me test you with an intelligence question!”

Gao Wenhui instantly straightened her back, “Bring it on, I won’t accept defeat.”

Jiang Qin coughed, “An empty bus starts from the terminal. At the second stop, 5 people get on, then 3 get off and 4 get on, 6 get off and 3 get on, 2 get off and 1 gets on, 1 gets off and 3 get on, so…”

“Wait a minute!”

Gao Wenhui’s hands and brain were in a mess, “Don’t say it so fast, I haven’t even memorized the question yet.”

Jiang Qin grinned, “This has nothing to do with the question. I just wanted to ask you, what color is this bus?”

“You…you’re talking nonsense. You never mentioned anything about color just now.”

“Okay, okay, I won’t tease you anymore. May I ask how many stops did the bus make?”

Gao Wenhui was stunned for a second and then gave up, “What does this have to do with IQ? At most, it’s just a brain teaser. I was focused on remembering the number of people. Who paid attention to how many stops you mentioned? And you suddenly asked about the color, I even forgot the number of people!”

The corners of Jiang Qin’s mouth curled up in a cold smile, “Do you think making milk tea is related to IQ? Isn’t it just pure memorization? If you can’t even remember the steps, you’re definitely done for.”

“It stopped at 5 stations.” Feng Nanshu spoke coldly.

Jiang Qin looked at the little rich girl in surprise, “Then do you know how many people are left on the bus?”

“There are still 4 people left.”

“Really? You’re not lying to me, right?” Jiang Qin himself didn’t know.

Feng Nanshu nodded very seriously, “Jiang Qin, I will never lie to you.”

Jiang Qin had a face full of disbelief, “How many times have you lied to me? I sometimes even feel like you’re just pretending to be dumb, but I have no evidence.”

“I haven’t. I’m really dumb.” Feng Nanshu spoke seriously.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk.”

Gao Wenhui rested her chin in her hands, making strange sounds while nibbling, her face full of enjoyment.

Jiang Qin’s face darkened. He looked at Gao Wenhui in confusion, “What’s so good about tsking?”

“You two are very shippable as long as you sit together.” Gao Wenhui couldn’t stop shipping.

“How dare you say that when you’ve been here for an hour and haven’t even made half a cup of milk tea? And you still have the nerve to eat sweets? Go practice!”

“Practice, I’ll practice!”

Gao Wenhui was furious but couldn’t find a reason to refute.

This was Nanshu’s business, so she absolutely didn’t want to muddle through it. She threw down the rag, pulled Hu Xin, and familiarized herself with the process and operation once again.

Hu Xin knew that Gao Wenhui was the boss’s best friend, belonging to the imperial relatives, so she taught her especially seriously.

She wasn’t afraid of her store manager position being snatched away because working at the milk tea shop was just a part-time job for her.

Moreover, the boss said that when opening branch stores later, training teachers would be needed. She would follow Fang Xiaoxuan around, earning a much higher salary than now.

At the same time, Jiang Qin’s phone started vibrating incessantly in his pocket, buzzing loudly.

The first person to call was Lai Cunqing. He was reporting the launch status of the group-buying at the University of Science and Technology.

“Boss, our debut deal promotion is complete. The order volume has exceeded 6,000, and the total amount of goods for the day is still being counted.”

“Well done. Judging from the debut order volume alone, the sales at the University of Science and Technology have already surpassed Linchuan University. There weren’t any troubles in the middle, right?”

“Everything is going smoothly at the moment. Our debut sales banner of 60,000 yuan has been hung up. However, Director Zhang and Director Hu came to take a look in the middle.”

“Let them look. The more they look, the more reassured they’ll be. Oh right, remember to give out the red envelopes to the delivery staff.”

“They’ve all been distributed. Everyone is very motivated.”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Qin stretched his back. His heart that was suspended in the upper atmosphere gradually descended to mid-air.

The second stop of the group-buying was the most crucial one because there were many differences between off-campus and on-campus operations. To promote the forum and group-buying to the University of Technology and Normal University later, the performance at the University of Science and Technology had to be impressive.

At present, it seemed that the market performance at the University of Science and Technology was quite good. At the very least, with this achievement, coupled with the imperial edict of work-study programs, the school leaders at the other two universities would have no reason to refuse.

Awesome, I’m really a little genius.

The second person to call was Lu Xuemei. She said that the first billboard was done, but the second billboard was quite special and required the use of acrylic panels, so the progress might not keep up.

“Add more money. Ask who can do it. If they can’t, switch to another company.”

Lu Xuemei took a deep breath, “Boss, you’re really bold and generous.”

Jiang Qin spoke expressionlessly, “At this stage, we can’t just look at what we’ve invested. We have to see what we can get in return.”

“Understood. I’ll go add money.”

The third call came from He Yijun of Wanzhong Mall, regarding the New Year’s gathering of the Linchuan Chamber of Commerce.

He Manqi had been disciplined by Jiang Qin to the point of becoming a good girl. Not only did she go back to class, but she also never fought with her classmates again. He Yijun was grateful.

Therefore, he would definitely handle the matter Jiang Qin had entrusted him with. In fact, Jiang Qin had been waiting for this call these past few days.

“President Jiang, I’ve arranged the gathering. You can just come in with me tomorrow night.”

Jiang Qin stepped on the stool and tugged at his pant leg, “Thank you for your help, President He.”

He Yijun pondered for a while, “Actually, I know you probably want to find some new partners. Although I don’t understand how you plan to operate specifically, there are still some things I have to say upfront.”

“Please go ahead.”

“Very few businessmen have really gone to school. Their tempers, if not good, are simply not good. They especially like to show off, particularly on such occasions. It’s very easy for them to be arrogant. You’re young and impetuous, so try to listen more and talk less after going in.”

Jiang Qin rubbed his nose, “President He, it should be no problem for me to ask for a business card from others, right?”

He Yijun sighed, “It’s best not to, because the socializing at this kind of club is very utilitarian. Generally, you need to give your business card first. Only if the other party sees it and feels there’s a need to make your acquaintance will they give you their card. Otherwise, they definitely won’t pay attention to you.”

“There’s such a rule? It seems that the smell of money really isn’t good.”

“Now that I’ve said this much, do you still feel it’s necessary to go? If you don’t want to, there’s no need to force yourself.”

Just as Jiang Qin was about to speak, he suddenly saw a milk tea straw being brought to his mouth. Turning his head, it was the aloof Feng Nanshu, holding the milk tea cup for him to drink.

The sunlight fell from the sky, illuminating her beautiful eyes and slender, curled eyelashes, making her look stunningly moving.

Jiang Qin took a sip, “President He, I definitely have to attend this gathering.”

He Yijun grunted, “Alright then. Tomorrow at 7 PM, I’ll wait for you in the lobby of Longkai International Hotel. It’s best if you wear a suit and tie.”

“Got it. Jizhou Wu Yanzu, Longkai open for business!”

He Yijun was a bit dazed, “What’s chicken porridge no eyeballs?”

Jiang Qin chuckled a few times, “You misheard, President He. What I said just now was a professional term in economics. To be honest with you, I’m currently in the study room learning because the final exams are approaching. I plan to lightly take the first place in the entire major.”

“You really live up to being a study star. Then study well. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Jiang Qin waited for the other party to hang up, then put his phone in his pocket and yawned at the bright morning sun.

The warm sun in winter had a unique comfort, feeling gentle and warm on the body.

The little rich girl obediently sat beside him, looking aloof, like a top-notch rich beauty who made people feel very distant. Then every minute, she would pass the milk tea over once.

“I won’t drink anymore. It’s too sweet.”

“Drink.”

Jiang Qin took a deep breath and bit the straw flat for her.

Seeing this scene, the little rich girl couldn’t help but be dumbfounded for a moment, the white mist from her mouth turning into wisps.

“Wenhui, stop shipping. The water is overflowing…”

“Oh oh, sorry. I can’t help but ship. Jiang Qin said this is called ‘dog food brain.'”

“…”

At the same time, in the top-floor office of Wanzhong Mall, He Yijun put down the phone, his heart filled with many doubts.

Can’t ask for business cards, look more and talk less. What’s the point of such meaningless socializing?

Jiang Qin is actually still willing to go?

Could it be that he really went to smell the scent?
