Shanghai Stock Market.
Fudan University.
Just as Tang Kai was thinking about going into business with Tang Qing.
Tang Qing was faced with a ’siege’ of sorts. Looking at the almost circular formation of senior girls looking like they ant business, Tang Qing felt like turning tail and running. But standing beside him were Lin Jiaxue and his dormitory mates, so he had no choice but to stay put.
"Classmate, join our Go Club, promote our traditional culture, and you could also enhance your logical thinking ability. Especially with our club president, who is an amateur third-tier - and has participated in multiple.... "
"Go away, with so many delicate beauties, why play Go? Co join our street dance club instead. I tell you, to maintain a woman’s figure, she needs to keep exercising. Our club covers a variety of programs and can also participate in school and...."
"..."
Watching several groups of people eagerly proposing their clubs to them, Tang Qing of course realized they were ’drooling’ over their ’beauty.’ There was no way around it, but he never thought about joining any club himself, as he found the idea rather boring.
After all.
With Tang Qing’s learning ability, why would he waste his ti bringing people down, right? The budding flowers of our motherland, if subjected to soul-shattering trauma and tons of heavy blows, whose fault would it be, right?
Tang Qing had already decided. There were still four years left in university- plenty of ti. Why not start a club and have fun with a group of like-minded people? But this was just a thought for now.
Today, their freshman class was dismissed early, allowing students to co here to understand and join clubs, and expand their social circles.
This made them a target for club recruiters. Along the way, the senior girls were very enthusiastic about introducing their clubs. There was no choice after all, their group was big and included a few beauties. The senior boys were a bit more restrained; thus, the recruiters were mostly senior girls.
Even clubs like Stamp Collection and Opera ca too.
"Tangtang, which club do you want to join?" Lin Jiaxue was unaffected by all this. She would join any club Tang Qing did. Her real intention was not to join any clubs at all. After all, rely learning from Tang Qing had given her plenty to absorb.
Tang Qing shook his head and said, "I don’t feel like I’d learn anything from these clubs. If there was a piano club, I might consider accompanying you to take a look. But since there isn’t one, why don’t we start our own club?"
"Start our own?" Lin Jiaxue asked in surprise.
Zeng Rou and the others also looked at Tang Qing. His way of thinking was indeed different from theirs. Instead of wanting to join a club, he was thinking about starting his own. But considering what they had seen at Tang Qing’s house a few days ago, they understood a bit.
With Tang Qing’s level of genius, why would he be contented with being under soone else’s leadership? With Tang Qing’s abilities, he could easily support many clubs, such as ink painting, sketching, piano, wood carving, and even other unknown skills.
Thinking about it like this, Tang Qing didn’t seem human at all.
"Tang Qing, are you joking? If you start a club, what would you teach? Piano?" Zeng Rou asked curiously.
Tang Qing shook his head and said, "No. I wouldn’t have the ti to teach all that. I just have a vague idea right now, nothing concrete." He had not decided whether to start a specialized club or a more comprehensive one.
Both had their advantages.
The specialized club would teach certain skills, and the comprehensive one would include more aspects. Since he had decided to start a club, he would make it different from the existing ones.
"When you start your club, count in. I will be adding numbers to your club, don’t thank ." Zeng Rou said jokingly. She didn’t care whether Tang Qing could actually pull it off, but she believed that since Tang Qing had said it, he must have a way to do it.
"That depends on whether you et my admission criteria." Tang Qing replied, smirking.
Upon hearing this, Zeng Rou was imdiately exasperated, and standing with hands on hips, she said, "It’s annoying! What admission criteria? Jiaxue, I suggest you sleep in the dorm tonight, we shouldn’t let this guy take advantage of us." This was the only thod she believed could pose a threat to Tang Qing.
Tang Qing couldn’t let Zeng Rou have her way, and quickly wrapped Lin Jiaxue in his arms, saying, "Go away, stop causing trouble. At most, I will loosen the admission criteria for you. However, direct recruitnt is not possible. If I do this, I want to do it well. It’s not aningful to gather together without sharing common interests and goals."
Tang Qing was not just going to do it for fun. If so, he could just stay at ho and play, or accompany Lin Jiaxue. Who would be idiotic enough to start a club? Since he was serious, he couldn’t take it lightly. It was a matter of principle.
"Alright, I would like to see what kind of club you end up forming, hmph!" Zeng Rou was still holding a grudge. But she was just pretending, she was not easily angered. Instead, she was beginning to appreciate Tang Qing’s approach.
Lin Jiaxue also lost interest in joining any clubs, she just wanted to follow Tang Qing. Then, Zeng Rou and a few others took off, excitedly inquiring about clubs everywhere. After all, they could join more than one. They decided to find sothing they liked first.
Zhong Liang and the other two were also eager to mix in where there were most beauties. Compared to Tang Qing’s unknown club, getting hooked up with soone seed like a more practical idea.
As several of them inquired and ran around enthusiastically, Tang Qing pulled Lin Jiaxue to a nearby shade under the tree.
Tang Qing took out so paper.
After wiping the nonexistent dust off the bench, he sat down with Lin Jiaxue.
"Jiaxue, are you sure you don’t want to consider joining a club?" Tang Qing said, holding Lin Jiaxue’s hand.
"No, I have so much I still haven’t learned from you. I don’t have ti to learn with them." Lin Jiaxue honestly replied.
"Yes, that makes sense. Co on, let your man reward you with a kiss."
Tang Qing said and suddenly leaned in for a surprise kiss on Lin Jiaxue’s cheek.
"There are so many people here." Lin Jiaxue was shy and covered the kissed part of her face, her eyes darting left and right. Indeed, they had beco the center of attention.
"What’s the big deal? This will make them envious. Let’s do it again."
Tang Qing hugged Lin Jiaxue and kissed her again, blatantly showing off their affection in public. Seeing this handso guy with this pretty girl was enough to break multiple hearts, both male and female. Those who heard about it were heartbroken, and those who saw it were shattered.
Nearing noon.
They finally made their choices.
As for what they chose, Tang Qing didn’t have interest in knowing. With his wife by his side, everything else was a trivial matter.
Noon.
At Zeng Rou’s invitation, Tang Qing ended up eating a al in the school cafeteria with Lin Jiaxue.
Fortunately, they could order their dishes.
It wasn’t that Tang Qing was being fussy, he personally didn’t care and could eat anything. However, with Lin Jiaxue by his side, all he could think of was giving her the best, and the school’s food really wasn’t up to par.
Knowing that Tang Qing was wealthy, they didn’t hold back.
What a joke.
For a wealthy man who spent tens of thousands of RMB on a single al, inviting them to eat a hundred yuan stir-fry was nothing. They didn’t think that Tang Qing was being extravagant because it was just his daily routine.
"Tang Qing, next ti I’ll invite you guys over for a al at my house. My mom’s cooking might not be as good as your family’s chef’s, but it’s unique, I promise it won’t disappoint." Zhong Liang said, intending to return the favor after enjoying such a grand feast.
Hanging out with soone like Tang Qing definitely wouldn’t do any harm.
"Sure, as long as it’s not on the weekend. I have plans this weekend, and I’m going to Beijing for a wedding next weekend." Tang Qing agreed. He truly didn’t have ti this weekend, with Li Kai and Wang Yan both coming.
Zhong Liang also rembered this, Tang Qing had ntioned it in their dormitory. It was no problem, his family lived in the Shanghai Stock Market area, there was no need to wait for the weekend.
"Great, I’ll ask my family this afternoon, and we’ll set a date for next week. Everyone’s invited." Zhong Liang suggested.
"Great, more free stuff," Zeng Rou chid in. She loved being part of the crowd.
Since the dormitory head agreed, Ning Jing and Gu Man had to accept as well.
"..."
"By the way, Tang Qing, do you still have that fruit wine? My dad wants to buy a couple of bottles. How about 15,000 yuan a bottle?" Zeng Rou suddenly asked with a hint of hesitation halfway through the al.
The price of 15,000 yuan was set by her father. Given its addiction treatnt effect, Zeng Rou, who was already wealthy, didn’t think it was too expensive.
She just felt a bit sorry to Tang Qing. She knew how hard it was to get hold of this wine, and buying it just like that, although Tang Qing probably made a profit, it was a question of who profited. Tang Qing might not even care about this amount of money.
"Your dad?" Tang Qing asked with a furrowed brow. The price of 15,000 was fair. Even though the negative news about fruit wine had disappeared, its black market price did not drop, but rather increased. In so African countries, the black market price of a bottle of fruit wine had even been driven up to 30,000 USD.
The reason was simple: illegal substances were too rampant there.
Still, the region was not safe, so places were even at war, so the wine was mainly not sold there. It could only be smuggled in, causing the price to skyrocket.
"Yes, a child in my mom’s relative’s family needs it for addiction treatnt. As the ad says, two bottles of fruit wine should do it." Zeng Rou would never say that her own father didn’t want to use any of his stock of wine.
She deeply regretted showing off to her father after the al, who then enlisted her to act as a middleman. She gritted her teeth and asked Tang Qing anyway.
"Uh, okay, do you want to bring it this afternoon or when do you want it?" Tang Qing initially wanted to decline, but since it was for treatnt and not for the novelty of trying sothing new, he agreed to sell it.
Zeng Rou was delighted, "My relative is in the Shanghai Stock Market, I’ll ask him to co and collect it this afternoon."
"Okay, but don’t spread the word. This is an exception, I’m not a wine vendor." Tang Qing added in his heart: I am the producer.
Zeng Rou quickly nodded, thinking that Tang Qing was running low on fruit wine, and guaranteed, "No problem, I wouldn’t have asked if it wasn’t because my cousin needed it for treatnt. Even my father can’t drink it."
Tang Qing smiled and nodded.
Now that the addiction treatnt effect of the fruit wine had been recognized, the black market price would certainly continue to rise, which was why Tang Qing ordered a 50% increase in supply, to avoid an excessive surge in the black market price.
He knew that Tang Kai and his n had already given the order.
They would set aside a batch of fruit wine to sell to those battling addiction, for treatnt purposes, with a limit of two bottles per person. If anyone greedily buys the wine just to sell it on the black market,
If that’s the case.
All Tang Qing wanted to say was,
You can’t stop people who are determined to bring about their own undoing.
However, Tang Kai and his n weren’t that brutal. If these people did that, they wouldn’t be able to partake in the special fruit wine allocation, and they would have to fight with others for the normal fruit wine allocation.
In that case.
All Tang Qing could do was wish them luck. Although he didn’t rule out so insider shenanigans, he could only suggest to his second uncle and his n to establish a complete sales model that separates fruit wine as a beverage and as a dicine as soon as possible.
If that’s not feasible.
They could just let the custors finish drinking before they leave the store. If worse cos to worst, they could just add more staff in the marketing departnt.
As for the idea of cooperation with addiction treatnt centers, to be honest, Tang Kai and his n were quite wary.
