"Ah~~~ It hurts, it hurts, take it easy, take it easy!"
Su Qing’s screams echoed from the private room.
"Young man, your kidneys aren’t doing well. I’ve never seen a youngster scream louder than you!
Hey? You look a bit familiar!"
At this mont, Su Qing was trembling all over, but as soon as he heard that it was a kidney pressure point, he imdiately shut his mouth.
Upon hearing this, he took a closer look, and couldn’t help being surprised: "It’s you?"
The woman in front of him was plump and round, currently pressing his feet. After they ca out, Shen Yi drove them to a high-end health massage club, saying she was in a good mood today and wanted to thoroughly enjoy herself.
But when he recognized the aunt’s appearance, he was shocked, wasn’t this the sa woman who had pressed his feet at the Qingshuiwa Platform back then?
Back then, he and Wang Xing encountered an anti-vice and anti-drug operation and were forced to leave.
"Young man, you’ve been here before?" The aunt laughed, but her hands didn’t lighten up.
The pain made Su Qing shiver, and he kept shaking his head, sweat visible on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and couldn’t help asking: "Auntie, weren’t you at the Qingshuiwa Platform?"
"Oh, you’re a regular there, I see. The owner of Qingshuiwa Platform has already been taken away, and it’s closed down. So, I ca here. I rember you now. Last ti, there was a young man who scread even louder than you. He was even weaker, tell him to co here too for a massage!"
anwhile, in a distant neighborhood, Wang Xing suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He didn’t know why, but he kept feeling a twitching sensation in his kidneys.
"Are you talking about him? His kidneys are indeed not good. Soday I’ll inform him and let him co over. Ah~~~ take it easy, auntie, I can’t handle it!" Su Qing said in a trembling voice.
Upon hearing this, the aunt glanced at Shen Yi sitting nearby and said: "Young man, enduring a bit of pain now is better than suffering in the future, listen to Auntie!"
"Ah~~~"
At this mont, Su Qing was clutching the bedsheet tightly, anyone who didn’t know might think he was being forced.
On another bed, Shen Yi was lying comfortably while a tall, voluptuous, attractive young woman dressed in black stockings was giving her a back massage, making Shen Yi hum and sigh in pleasure.
"What’s with all the yelling? Can’t a grown man handle a couple of squeezes? Are you experiencing kidney deficiency?"
Upon hearing this, Su Qing rolled his eyes and spat back: "You’d be deficient too if you got pressed, why don’t you try it?"
"So what if I’m deficient? A woman’s kidney deficiency doesn’t interfere with things, unlike so people, who can’t handle it in their early twenties," Shen Yi retorted.
Especially the final interjection "Cheh," which was clearly a challenge to a man’s dignity.
"Auntie, give it your all, use the strongest force, I’m fine!"
"That’s more like it, young man. Speak up if it hurts, got it!"
Soon, Su Qing’s forehead was bulging with veins, his entire body was in a taut state, covered in sweat.
After what felt like forever, the pain finally vanished, replaced by a trendous sense of happiness, yes, happiness, followed by a complete sense of relaxation.
This made him suspect that the comfort after the foot massage was caused by the dramatic contrast from the prior pain.
"What, you can’t handle it anymore?" Shen Yi laughed from the side.
At this mont, she too was sweating, her hair stuck to her forehead and cheeks, carrying a unique charm.
"Cheh, stingy, what’s wrong with giving a massage too? Can’t even spare this little bit of money, in the future, I won’t be going out with you anymore!" Su Qing complained.
Shen Yi sat up, twisted her neck, and responded: "Really? Are you sure you’re after a massage and not sothing else? How about it, wasn’t that No. 8 therapist great? She’s one of the rare talents here who combines beauty and skills."
"No. 8 therapist, huh? I’ll rember that. By the way, is this place legit? I’m a cop now, you know that, right?"
"Of course, it’s legit. Do you think I’m like you n? With nothing on my mind but that stuff?"
"Legit? Then I’m not coming back!"
Shen Yi: ...
This was one of the more upscale health massage clubs in Jiangcheng City. Whether it was legit or not, he didn’t know, but the facilities were indeed comprehensive, even featuring a so-called hot spring.
After working up a sweat, he went for a soak in the hot spring. When he ca out, he spotted Wen Nanqing and her daughter along with Shen Yi having a midnight snack on a sofa in the lounge area, with crayfish, crab roe buns, barbecue, lobster, and more—all for free.
All expenses were included in the ticket price. Anyway, it was Shen Yi paying, all he knew was that the ticket wasn’t cheap, though he wasn’t sure exactly how much.
Seeing him co out, the landlady couldn’t help but tease: "Here, Xiao Su, why so slow? Were you doing sothing else in there?"
"Sister Wen, what’s there to do in the hot spring? Don’t get the wrong idea!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Nanqing leaned in and sniffed him right in front of Shen Yi: "I sll wine—wow, I didn’t realize, Xiao Su, you know how to enjoy yourself, using red wine for steaming, good for the skin!"
Su Qing: ...
"Alright, this is my first ti at such a high-class place. I was curious about everything and just wanted to try it out. By the way, what were you guys talking about just now?"
"Of course, we were talking about how much money Xiao Yi made this ti. Can you guess, how much did we earn?" Wen Nanqing asked playfully, raising her eyebrow.
To this, he quickly interrupted: "Don’t tell , please. Whatever you earn is yours, it has nothing to do with . Could you two give a commission? Even one percent would work, just as a hardship allowance, what do you think?"
Before Wen Nanqing could respond, Shen Yi chid in: "You wish, your appetite is quite big."
"One percent, it should be close to 100, right?" the landlady asked.
Shen Yi shook her head: "More than that. This ti, I cut costs by a third. By the ti this batch is sold, excluding processing costs and based on our usual price, profits should be double. Plus, with the additional third, the profit isn’t small. If everything sells, we might get close to two units, though it will take quite so ti, it’s not imdiate money!"
They spoke lightly of 100 and two units, yet didn’t specify the units, but it definitely wasn’t just a hundred bucks.
And those two, no surprise, were two little goals.
Hearing this, Su Qing was amazed: "Damn, such profits, what makes the margins so high?"
"Your sister Shen’s company has its own brand, focusing on won’s products, and takes the affordable luxury route. You know, it’s relatively easy to make money from won," Wen Nanqing explained from the side.
At this, Su Qing nodded. Online, so luxury brands sell a pair of slippers for over ten thousand, and a pair of chopsticks for thousands. How much could the cost be? People are paying for the joy of consumption.
While affordable luxury isn’t as outrageous as true luxury, it’s still pricey, otherwise, it wouldn’t be called affordable luxury, would it?
Since it has a hint of luxury, naturally, it’s hugely profitable.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes at Shen Yi, exclaiming: "Quite the hand, Boss Shen, a true hustler!"
"Thank you, thank you. Buying low and selling high, creating sothing from nothing, information gaps, channel differences, these are the essence of business. Besides, no business is without so cunning. Buyers are never as savvy as sellers; otherwise, how would we make money?" Shen Yi said boldly.
In business, without profit who would bother trading? Just idle hands, right? As long as what we’re selling isn’t poor in quality and is effective, why bother about my cost, as long as it works, right?
"Two little goals, Dahuang earns 2,800 a month, let’s say 3,000 yuan a month. Dahuang would have to work for you for 5,500 years. The Chinese civilization is only 5,000 years old, it’s really deceitful," Su Qing marveled.
Even for himself, at his current 600K monthly inco, assuming it doesn’t increase, he’d need to work for 30 years. Is he even human? Bloody profitable.
To this, Shen Yi smiled slightly, then turned to him and said: "Without sky-high tricks, where does the wealth co from? Always rember, wealth is in strategy, not labor, and profits are in circumstances, not hard work. To make big money, you have to keep your head up and look ahead, not just focus on working hard."
This is exactly what people an when they say you don’t get rich without striking it big, and horses don’t get fat without night hay, it’s the sa thing!
"Sis, your little brother doesn’t want to work hard anymore, what do you think?"
"Sis’s stomach feels a bit uncomfortable, dear brother, can you get a cup of hot water?"
"That’s not a problem, sis, hold on, are your legs sore? How about I give you a massage?"
"Alright, young man, do a good job. I don’t have much, just a bit of spare cash, you know?"
"Got it, I totally understand!"
Before, he never had a direct experience of Aunt Shen’s wealth and admitted he might have been a bit unreasonable, but now he realized his mistake and wanted to be a good person.
At this ti, the little girl piped up: "Daddy Su, my mom also has money, rub her belly too!"
Everyone: ...
