Chapter 177: I Don’t Get Up Early for Nothing
TL: Etude
Can we finally use group buying at the University of Science of Technology?
Get it online fast. I swear, apart from attending classes, I wont step out of the dorm. Its too damn cold outside!
I feel like someones eyeing my wallet. Is it just me?
Just got my living allowance, but why do I feel like its no longer mine?
Christmas and New Years Day were close, just six days apart. During these days, the team at the University of Science of Technology worked tirelessly to prepare for the launch of their group buying initiative.
Lai Cunqing was in charge of online promotions, offering various deals like a first-day discount of 20% off, additional discounts for dormitory group purchases, and New Years promotions in the campus mall, all inspired by Linchuan Universitys tactics. They started with a strong offensive.
Ding Qiaona handled the offline recruitment, quickly finding part-time delivery staff and even training the dormitory caretakers within a week.
Even though they were following Linchuan Universitys footsteps, their swift progress spoke volumes of their effort.
Well done, youve worked hard these past few days, Jiang Qin said, nodding in approval after hearing the report.
Its nothing, boss. Our earnings are almost catching up to those who work full-time in the shopping streets. Wed feel guilty if we didnt do a good job, Lai Cunqing said earnestly.
Lai Cunqing, a genuine student from a poor background, came from a well-known impoverished area. With four siblings, just managing tuition fees was a struggle, let alone living expenses.
Work-study might just be a tool for Jiang Qin, but for people like them, it held significant meaning.
This is just the beginning. Look forward to the future, Jiang Qin encouraged.
Then he turned to Ding Qiaona, the girl with big eyes, Qiaona, have we met before? You look familiar.
Ding Qiaona opened her mouth in surprise, You have a good memory, boss. We have met.
Where?
At the University of Science of Technology Campus Beauty Contest. I came fourth. I met you on the day of the award ceremony, and then I joined our team.
Ding Qiaona, a sophomore and fourth place in the campus beauty contest, joined the team mid-way, recruited by Wei Lanlan.
At that time, Jiang Qin was focused on Linchuan Universitys group buying business, so they hadnt met.
But knowing that a campus beauty was part of his team, working her way up to a deputy manager position, Jiang Qin was quite surprised.
Thats more like it!
Not all attractive people are content being just a pretty face. There are those who are good-looking and incredibly hardworking too.
Like himself, flaunting top-tier looks yet choosing to shine through talent. Lets see who dares say Jiang Qin shouldnt work too hard with such handsome looks!
Feeling a bit hungry. Any recommendations for the shopping street?
Jiang Qin rubbed his stomach, feeling it empty.
Ding Qiaona thought for a moment, I had a delicious pig trotter (pig foot) noodle dish there yesterday. Would you like to try it?
Pig trotter?
Jiang Qin pondered, then smiled and shook his head, No more pig trotters for me. I had the best in the world on Christmas Eve.
Thats impossible. The pig trotters at the University of Science of Technologys shopping street are famous, Ding Qiaona couldnt believe it.
Lets try something else.
What would you like, boss?
I heard theres a cruel fat man on the shopping street who kills cute bunnies and roasts them deliciously. Lets go save one!
Jiang Qin snapped his fingers, leading them to the shopping street. They ordered a whole spicy rabbit. Its skin was golden and crispy, yet the meat wasnt dry. The thicker parts were juicy and flavorful.
It seemed Su Nais taste was indeed good. No wonder he mentioned rabbit that day. Only someone with a heart as compassionate as his would return to rescue one.
By the way, Qiaona, how is Guo Zihang doing under you? What is he responsible for now?
Jiang Qin asked casually about the well-being of his close friend after taking a sip of water.
According to your previous arrangement, hes now responsible for coordinating with the dormitory caretakers, and hes making great progress. Thanks to him, my workload has been significantly reduced.
Ding Qiaona used the idiom like a fish in water to describe the situation, which Jiang Qin hadnt expected.
Well, it seemed Guo Zihang had managed to earn such high praise, which was no small feat.
In the coming period, you might have to work even harder, but I believe you can handle it. The market at the University of Science of Technology is in your hands now.
Well give it our all. But boss, arent you going to oversee the launch these next few days?
The exam week is approaching, and I need to study hard. After all, I am, at least nominally, a star student.
Jiang Qin finished the remaining rabbit confidently, wiped his mouth, and bid farewell to the two.
The star student part was a bit of a stretch, but not failing too many subjects was the real goal. Otherwise, with his mothers temper, this year would not end peacefully.
He had already made plans with his three roommates to start a rigorous study session from the next day, vowing to stay in the study room until the end. Whoever left first would be the loser.
But before going back to study, Jiang Qin decided to visit the Wanzhong Mall in the city center.
The group buying initiative was booming, with sales of various products soaring after comprehensive marketing. This showed that not all university students were short of money.
With this foundation, Jiang Qin felt more confident, so he decided to make an appearance at the mall to maintain his presence.
He parked in the underground lot and took the elevator to the fourth floor, where he headed to Yue Zhus office.
Mr. Jiang, please have some tea, Yue Zhu offered a cup of tea. Hows business at the university?
Its going well, especially the promotion at the University of Science of Technology. Its quite demanding, Jiang Qin replied after a sip of tea.
Speaking of the University of Science of Technology, Ive already arranged for the delivery trucks with Manager Zhang. There wont be any issues, rest assured.
I didnt come to chase you for the trucks. I was just passing by and decided to stop in. By the way, how are the shoe insoles I gave you last time?
Yue Zhu smiled slightly, Theyre very helpful. At least my feet dont hurt as much.
Thats good.
The conversation flowed, but neither touched on the topic of online sales. Even though Jiang Qin tried to steer the conversation that way, Yue Zhu didnt pick it up.
It would be too forced and unnatural for him to blatantly boast, Look how amazing our online sales are this month! That wasnt his style.
Manager Yue, you look quite tired. Havent been resting well?
Yue Zhu sighed, Since the Winter Solstice, the mall has been running non-stop promotions. As the marketing manager, Ive been leading the charge, so I havent had much rest. Things should get better after New Years.
Jiang Qin understood that Yue Zhu wasnt avoiding the topic of online sales; the malls offline marketing had been too frequent recently.
From seasonal discount festivals, Winter Solstice Day, Christmas activities, to New Year promotions, everyones focus was on offline sales.
So, Yue Zhu might not have had the time to pay attention to online sales, or perhaps the online figures paled in comparison to the offline sales.
That was understandable.
No matter how many students there were, they couldnt match the purchasing power of customers during offline events.
Jiang Qin felt a bit disappointed, realizing he might not be able to show off as planned. He got up to leave, but a deep blue invitation on the desk caught his eye.
Whats the Linchuan Commerce Association? Jiang Qin suddenly asked.
Yue Zhu looked surprised, Oh, that invitation isnt mine. Its for Mr. He. The Linchuan Commerce Association is basically a club consisting of some well-known business owners in Linchuan. They meet every New Years Day, and Mr. He is one of the members.
Jiang Qin picked up the invitation, I happen to have some business with Mr. He. Do you want me to deliver this for you?
That would be great. Ive been so busy these days I havent had the chance to deliver it. Its been lying on my desk for two days. Thank you.
No problem, its on my way.
Jiang Qin left with the invitation, glancing at it and finding nothing of value, just a sincere invitation with the date and time.
He then visited He Yijuns office, casually chatting for a while before bringing out the invitation.
Mr. He, Manager Yue asked me to deliver this to you an invitation from the Linchuan Commerce Association.
He Yijun took the invitation, Thank you, Mr. Jiang. Have a seat, Ill make you some tea.
Jiang Qin coughed subtly, maintaining his composure, Theres a commerce association in Linchuan? This is the first time Im hearing about it. What kind of people are members?
It includes various business owners from Linchuan hoteliers, foot bath proprietors, resort owners, shopping mall entrepreneurs, and those owning KTVs, bars, gyms, swimming pools, you name it. Its quite a diverse group.
Sounds impressive. I can almost smell the money.
He Yijun brought over the tea, Actually, this association isnt very significant. Apart from an annual bragging session, its mostly for show.
Jiang Qin placed the tea cup on the table, Is there a threshold for attending their gatherings?
There are indeed certain financial requirements.
Mr. He, do you think I could bypass these requirements with my good looks and get in for a stroll?
He Yijun realized something, So, Mr. Jiang, youre interested in this gathering?
Indeed, I am a bit curious, Jiang Qin admitted openly.
That might be difficult. The member spots are pre-arranged, and those people are quite exclusive. But dont worry, Mr. Jiang, youll eventually receive an invitation.
He Yijuns words were subtle, but his meaning was clear: Jiang Qin was not yet eligible.
Hows your daughter? Still as rebellious?
Jiang Qin shifted the topic abruptly.
Just mentioning her makes me angry. Always late or leaving early, shes turned my hair white.
He Yijuns demeanor dropped when he spoke of his daughter.
Its possible she dislikes studying because shes never been immersed in a good academic atmosphere.
What do you mean?
Jiang Qin set down his tea cup and spoke casually, If you find a well-known star student and take her to a prestigious university, let her experience the intense academic environment, she might start aspiring to university life. How could she not take her studies seriously then?
He Yijun looked up at him, I guess, Mr. Jiang, youre the type of star student who enjoys helping others?
Dont slander me! Im not one to help without a reason. Im all about profit and cause.
Alright, Mr. Jiang, I can inquire about the gathering for you.
Deal.
Dont slander me, LOL
