Yhan Qingwu had applied for sick leave and missed the exam; thus, another person snatched the first place.
Xiao Ranjun.
Zuo Wei rembered this person—Qin Yanran was second and third was....
Those nas were familiar to others, but Sui Yi hardly had an impression and showed little interest after a glance; even her own scores were recounted to her by soone else.
Like when she t Qin Sang while buying water.
"Sui Yi"
"Teacher Qin"
Qin Sang handed her water to Sui Yi, then bought another bottle. Sui Yi didn’t refuse, the generous gesture leaving a good impression, accompanied by a gentle smile, "You did quite well this ti."
"Oh? Thank you."
"From your reaction, it seems you don’t know you ranked thirtieth in your grade!" Qin Sang found Sui Yi’s expression at that mont quite amusing.
Thirtieth? That didn’t seem like an impressive rank, but considering Yunfeng and the school she had transferred from... it indeed had an astonishing value.
With a light laugh, Sui Yi took a sip of water, swallowing the coolness, and looked towards the blue sky and white clouds, "Teacher Qin, do you know why I ca to Yunfeng?"
Qin Sang initially wanted to say she didn’t know, but recalling certain rumors, she smiled, "Looking for soone? Yhan Qingwu?"
She paused, then added, "So, do you want to rank higher? That’s not bad either. Your language, mathematics, and English are actually excellent, a significant advantage over others, but your science is a bit lacking—if you make up for that, it should be feasible."
Qin Sang’s voice was quite pleasant to listen to, and Sui Yi smiled, "What else could I be here for in Yunfeng, if not to study?"
Just to study.
A serene matter; indeed, in her eyes, it was rely about studying.
Qin Sang, naturally discerning the implication, slightly chuckled in response.
It’s not just about being a student, after all, this student.
——————
A month’s ti may seem brief to so, but for others, it can be filled with many activities, such as renovating a store, establishing a company, making various arrangents, and preparing..
It also includes Sui Yi managing to master her driving license during various tily opportunities.
Qi Yanran, who thought it would be awkward to et Sui Yi again, now stood inside the fully renovated spacious store.
Three large stores combined, how big is that?
Nearly two thousand square ters.
Sui Yi hadn’t been here yet.
Qi Yanran silently killed the dissonant guess in her heart.
She indeed wasn’t the boss.
The opening ceremony was not high-profile; no flyers were made, nor advertisents sent. When Lin Yun asked Sui Yi about the date, Miss Sui casually marked one on the calendar while reading a book.
The date was thus set.
Lin Yun wanted to ntion that people in this business usually pray to the God of Wealth and check for auspicious days, but Miss Sui dismissed it with a phrase: "Every day people mourn and die, more than one might think, practically making every day a day to avoid; where’s the auspiciousness in that?"
Heh, having such a boss truly saves a lot of worry.
Lin Yun had prepared plenty of speeches on how busy she might be, but the opening ceremony turned out to be really easy—Sui Yi just had her hang a few red banners, play so guzheng music, and open the door... that was it.
Where are the firecrackers! The receptionist! The ribbon cutting!
Can’t we have a proper opening!
Lin Yun quietly shed tears; had she not seen how excellent Sui Yi’s plans were, she would truly think the young boss was joking with her.
But understated as it may be... the effect was excellent.
Why, you ask?
Because of the beautifully composed guzheng music, the quiet, understated, yet lasting ambiance of the store’s interior, and the fascinating array of many quirky items clearly visible through the massive ground-to-ceiling glass doors to anyone passing by.
Because of its tranquility, and because it was understated, it stood out all the more, making it special. A brief pause, and you could see the world through that imnse glass window.
Then, just a touch of curiosity, and one might spend a bit of ti and effort to step inside and take a look..
These days, people love this kind of distinctiveness.
What is called quiet luxury, reserved profundity?
Ancient wooden bookshelves, crystal cabinets. Upon entering, one is t with a cool, refreshing fragrance, with Bamboo Carving, wood carvings, hairpins, jewels, paintings and calligraphy, and all sorts of stationery available.
The staff isn’t nurous, so you won’t get a pole dance welco as if God walked in when you arrive; instead, they co over, give you a silent smile, a wave of the hand, and say, "Darling, take a look around. Ask if you don’t understand!"
There’s a saying that fits well here, "Like general, like soldier." The influence subtly and profoundly affects everything. Lin Yun was sowhat influenced by Sui Yi, to the extent that the people she hired were also sowhat indoctrinated with her ideas.
——People can be exceptional, elegant, and gentle but must not be cowardly, nor must they be arrogant!
If you can do these, you are qualified.
At the counter, Sister-in-law Wang found it hard to believe. "I don’t get it, we hardly called anyone in, how co so many people are coming to look..."
"Doing business these days isn’t just about calling people over. It’s about sustainable developnt~~ a steady flow," Lin Yun cut off a piece of what Sui Yi had said and sent it over. Sister-in-law Wang and Qi Yanran suddenly beca serious.
Today is Saturday, and it’s crowded. After her tutoring session, Qi Yanran held her books against her chest, unsure where to put them for a mont, as for why she was here...
Although the store was sold, Lin Yun had kept Sister-in-law Wang on to work, specifically handling the finances.
Qi Yanran still couldn’t understand why Lin Yun would entrust soone as unsophisticated as her mother with managing finances.
She looked at the dozen or so employees in the store, each one professional. In comparison to them, her mother was truly...
"Our store has only two sections, one for retail, selling items, and one for a pawnshop, pawning and redeeming items. The latter’s financial affairs are more complicated and not managed by Sister-in-law Wang. The forr, however, is extrely simple, rely about inco and expenditures from sales. Daily operation is enough... Your mother is honest? What we need is honesty and solid character... I don’t trust other people as much."
This was Lin Yun’s reason. Qi Yanran didn’t know this was Sui Yi’s reason, but it was a good thing. She was also happy that her mother didn’t have to look for another job, and after all, the store also had so sentintal attachnt to their family.
But Sister-in-law Wang felt sowhat insecure. The prices of these items were too high, she had confided privately to Qi Yanran. Any item here was worth several months of their previous sales combined. Qi Yanran didn’t believe it until today when she saw the items secured behind bulletproof glass cases, with pins and certificates attached to the bases, all clearly telling you, this stuff is worth two to three million!
Although it didn’t show on her face, she was inwardly shocked. Are these items really worth that much?
Genuine?
It wasn’t that she was distrustful or inexperienced, but seeing is believing, far better than what one hears or sees on TV.
While she was still in disbelief and suspicion...
The custors who had walked in were already buzzing with excitent, the kind of joy when they see sothing they like.
The most abundant items in the store were Bamboo Carvings. As ntioned before, if Bamboo Carving could please Sui Yi, how could others not like them!
A few young n and won had already taken a liking to several Bamboo Carvings. The items were all clearly priced, and the prices, ranging from thousands to tens of thousands, made the two n and won hesitate for a mont. However, one fashionable young woman in designer clothes stepped forward, removed her sunglasses, and said, "I’ll take this one... and that pin too.."
That pin... seed to be worth one hundred and eighty million!
The girl was very decisive, which stunned Sister-in-law Wang, but Lin Yun reacted swiftly, smiling as she greeted her. However, the girl’s gaze shifted as she asked, "Hey, where’s your boss today? Isn’t she coming for the opening?"
"Yes, miss, our boss didn’t co today... or rather, hasn’t arrived yet," Lin Yun didn’t finish her sentence. After all, she was a sales expert, imdiately discerning that this young woman was here partly because of her young boss. It was strange, was she a friend of the young boss?
"Miss, are you a friend of our boss?"
"Uh, I probably wouldn’t count as one, but I know she’s a friend of Gong Jiu. I ca today to see who she is in person~~ But your stuff is really good, no wonder those guys boast so much in front of ~~"
Lin Yun understood, but also thought of sothing. Eh, how did you know today was our opening, eh? The young boss definitely wouldn’t have told anyone; then it could only be...
Outside The Gate, it suddenly got lively, and everyone looked.
Wow!
A long line of sports or off-road vehicles parked in front of the street...
Opening the car doors, stepping out, one by one, won in high heels, fur coats, black sunglasses, or thigh-high boots, short skirts, puffer vests, leather bags, or tall, rich and handso guys...
A crowd walked in majestically, and as soon as they saw the fashionable young woman, they called her by her English na...
The whole place was stunned. What, had the high-class, rich and beautiful squad arrived?
Upon seeing this, Lin Yun inwardly clenched her fists. Miss Gong’s move was really sothing...
"Hey, where’s she?"
"Gong Jiu hasn’t arrived yet~~"
"I wanted to et her friend, not sure if it’s a handso guy or a beautiful girl."
"No worries, let’s first check out the stuff in the store, she’ll co eventually~~"
anwhile, Sui Yi was sitting here, waiting on the highway leading to Provincial City for Elder Tang and others to arrive, alone in her car.
As ti passed, Sui Yi received several text ssages continuously... among them was one signed by her assistant.
——I have done what you asked to do, and the data has been sent to you. He will arrive today, I hope you can fulfill what you promised ...
After reading the data, Sui Yi forwarded it to another account, then put down her phone.
Looking up, she saw two cars approaching from the opposite side, the sight of their license plates making her smile.
People had arrived. (To be continued. If you enjoyed this work, please support us by voting and gifting monthly tickets on qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian to read.)
