Chapter 373: Chapter 273: The Shadow Under the Night Chapter 373: Chapter 273: The Shadow Under the Night Fourth Middle School, lunch break.
So students didn’t go back and chose to stay in the classroom.
By now, the freshn year was more than half over, and the novelty students initially felt for the campus had all but dissipated.
Co September, as they move up to sophomore year, they would welco a new batch of underclassn.
anwhile, the important decision of choosing between the arts and sciences streams lood ahead.
Class 9’s room, with students sleeping, reading, playing on their phones, or chatting softly, was similar to class 8.
Zhang Chi and Yan Tianpeng didn’t go for lunch, but went to the dormitory first to fetch a router.
Stuffed full in a large backpack.
Dan Xiao witnessed it all, even offering to share Zhang Chi’s burden at one point; however, Zhang Chi declined.
What he was carrying wasn’t just a router, but his very first pot of gold.
Because of the lure of making money, Zhang Chi hurried along, entering class 9 first.
Shattering the previously quiet atmosphere.
So students looked up at him; Yan Tianpeng followed behind, and the two had discussed beforehand that they would install each other’s class routers.
Zhang Chi walked up to the podium, in front of the whole class, opened the cabinet under the multidia computer, and began to install the router.
Class 9’s Liang Sheng, with his forehead resting on his arm, was facing down at the table playing on his phone.
Tired from playing, he looked up and noticed so noise coming from the multidia area.
Lately, Liang Sheng’s life was going pretty well; ever since Shen Xinli had taken a nasty fall off the horizontal bars on the playground, he hadn’t bothered him anymore.
As for now, Liang Sheng cherished these peaceful days.
The noise from the podium soon disappeared, installing a router is nothing complicated after all; just plug in the power, connect the network cable, set it up and it’s ready to go.
Having finished setting it up, Zhang Chi said,
“Good afternoon, everyone. I’m Zhang Chi from class 8, and I’ve installed a router for you.”
Hearing this, class 9’s students were at first surprised, then delighted. They had heard that the neighbouring class 8 had a student who had installed a router for the whole class to use.
Everyone was hoping for a brave soul to offer up a router.
To their surprise, the delight ca so swiftly; now their class had one too.
While he was talking, Shi Qianjin ca in with a container of food:
“Here’s your lunch, Tianpeng.”
Shi Qianjin didn’t look too happy, understandably, as nobody likes being ordered around.
Seeing a newcor, Zhang Chi said,
“I’ve installed the router, just search on your phones and you’ll find the wifi.”
Wifi is a great lure, and students, regardless of their class, even class 1, wouldn’t miss the chance to sneak into the garden to leech off a network.
Liang Sheng, who was always on his phone, instantly searched upon facing the temptation of wifi, and he quickly found it.
He had a few episodes of an ani to download and eagerly asked,
“Is there a password for the wifi?”
Seeing soone asking, Zhang Chi was in high spirits and cheerfully said,
“I spent over 100 yuan on this router, it’s a new model with fast internet. Anyone who wants to connect, give three yuan and I’ll imdiately tell you the password.”
Zhang Chi had prepared a spiel:
“Five yuan can only get you 30M of data, and the speed of that is slow, but now, you can use as much as you want for three yuan.”
As he spoke, he predictably stirred up quite a commotion in class 9.
So girls were whispering among themselves.
A few boys looked disdainful.
Shi Qianjin retorted, “Shit, you’re charging money for this?”
Before Zhang Chi could respond, Dan Xiao from behind added,
“The free stuff is always the most expensive.”
Hearing this, Zhang Chi nearly broke into applause. He vowed that when he made it big, he would definitely hire Dan Xiao.
“These days, it’s not easy to make a buck. I’m only asking for three yuan, just enough to make a little hard-earned money. Anyone interested in the wifi, co here to register.”
“Even if you don’t want it today, if you ever feel like using the wifi, just co find in class 8,” Zhang Chi warmly invited everyone to co and spend their money.
Hearing Zhang Chi’s words, Shi Qianjin suddenly had an idea:
“Can’t you let try it out first?”
“I always get to try things when I shop at the supermarket.”
Zhang Chi, holding Yan Tianpeng’s phone, replied, “I’ve tested it for everyone already, and the internet is damn fast.”
“Don’t hesitate, guys; it’s just three yuan.”
He shouted twice, imitating Shen Xu.
With the wifi in arm’s reach and not being able to use it, everyone was a bit restless.
Three yuan wasn’t much, after all; skip one late-night snack and the money was there.
Liang Sheng, deeply addicted to his phone, beca the first to lead the charge:
“I’ll take it for three yuan!”
With that, he pulled out three coins.
Zhang Chi, upon receiving the money, suddenly felt overwhelmingly satisfied; three yuan in his hands just like that!
He’d bought six routers for a total of 360 yuan, and now he had almost reached a one percent return on his investnt.
Seeing Liang Sheng step up to buy the wifi password, Shi Qianjin suddenly thought: if Liang becos a purchase, could he get the password from him later without having to buy it himself?
Not just Shi Qianjin—so girls were thinking the sa.
Liang Sheng was known for being honest and non-confrontational. People like Shen Xinli and others had bullied him because of this.
To get the wifi password from such a person would be effortless.
After taking the money, Zhang Chi said,
“Before I tell you the password, you need to sign your na.”
Zhang Chi pulled out a piece of paper and a pen from his backpack.
Liang Sheng glanced at it and saw written on the paper:
“Leaking wifi password equals death to the entire family—Pledge.”
“Sign here, and I’ll give you the password,” said Zhang Chi confidently.
In truth, he had considered just entering the password on the other person’s phone so that even the owner wouldn’t know it.
However, for the sake of business, he went to the back of the room to scout out what was happening.
Ma Shicheng ntioned that so phone brands, like Xiaomi’s MIUI system, allow for imdiate wifi password sharing after connecting.
