Chapter 154: The Lady Boss Buys, Buys, Buys
TL: Etude
“Let’s go, it’s delivery time. Let’s go out and take a look.”
Jiang Qiurned from the entrance of the Entrepreneurship ter, waving to the office. Everyone in Room 208 immediately put on their coats and walked to Academy Road with umbrels in hand.
Witnessing the deliverymen with little yellow hats entering the school was a romanique to them in Room 208.
As everyone gradually left, Cao Xinyue, Hong Yan, and Tang Lin couldn’t help but follow, treading on the soft snowy ground and heading north.
The snowfall had lessened by then. The branches, rooftops, and roads were all covered in a yer of silver. On the small path through the woods, there were shallow, covered plum blossom footprints.
The cold wind blew against their faces, but it couldn’t dampen their excitement at all.
“Look, there are so many people over there.”
Passing by the dormitory area, Wen Jinrui suddenly raised his hand and poiowards what seemed to be a female dormitory of the Medical Department.
Indeed, many people were gathered at the dormitory entrance, each holding a phone, waiting.
It was their first time online. Some were worried about being tricked, others were curious about group buying, and some were just there for the excitement. All of them were crowded at the entrance, waiting.
Lu Xuemei had already adjusted her camera settings, aiming the lens towards the school gate, ready to capture the moment.
As time ticked by, everyone grew a bit anxious. Suddenly, a spsh ht yelloeared at the school gate, followed by two, three…
Finally, more thay group-buying deliverymen on tricycles slowly came into view.
The se was like a moving line of yellow in the snowy day, spreading from the mairance of Academy Road in all dires.
“This is really thrilling,” Su Nai couldn’t help but ch her fists.
Jiang Qin turo look at Lu Xuemei, “Xuemei, quick, take pictures. Use the skills you used to sneak photos of me. I want to use these photos for the project’s promotional brochure.”
“When did I ever sneak photos of you?” Lu Xuemei questioned while pressing the shutter.
“Didn’t you sneak photos of me climbing the marriage tree? If you don’t take good pictures today, I’ll hang you on the marriage tree.”
Jiang Qin said cheerfully, tinuing to enjoy the sight of the deliverymen riding tricycles into the school. It somehow reminded him of the opening se of “Charlie and the Chocote Factory,” where tless people were distributing flyers on little red bikes.
Such ses filled arepreneur with deep satisfa.
“What’s going on downstairs? Are they volunteers clearing snow?”
“No, Director, it seems to be Jiang Qin from our department. He retly set up a group-buyie. You order online and have it delivered directly to the dormitory. Those are his deliverymen.”
“Wow, that’s quite a se. This Jiang Qin… quite iing…”
The director of the academic office of the Finance Department watched from the window, notig how the group of little yellow hats on the pure white snow moved like ants. As they passed each crossroad, oo three people would leave the group. Although it wasn’t a rehearsed performahere was an orderly beauty to it.
The surrounding teachers also gathered around, marveling at the se.
They still vividly remembered the rge billboards from the campus beauty test and were surprised that Jiang Qin had mao pull off an event in such a short time.
Soon, the deliverymen in little yellow hats had all dispersed, leaving the main road aering the dormitory paths.
Seeing this, whether they had ordered something or were just there for the fun, everyoepped forward a few steps, standing below the steps of the dormitory entrance.
“Here they e, is it the group-buying?”
“Definitely, doesn’t it say so os?
“I ordered a quilt this m, oh wow, I’ll be cozy in my dorm now!”
“Damn, it’s really delivered right to the pedestrian street, without taking a siep?”
“The key is it’s cheaper. I bought slippers at the supermarket on the pedestrian street st time, twelve yuan a pair. After the dist on the group-buyie, it’s only nine yuan, saving three yuan!”
“Look, why is that little yelloedaling so slowly?”
Hearing this, everyone looked up and saw that indeed, one of the deliverymen on a tricycle had bee far behind by the others.
This wasn’t due to a ck of enthusiasm on his part. Rather, for some reason, his load was exceptionally rge, mostly prising orders from the girls’ dormitory of the Finance Department. He was effectively doing the work of three.
“Damn, this ’t go on.”
He decided that after today, he must suggest to his superiors that he be assigned a different area.
“I o buy a little more…”
Feng Nanshu, dressed in a white down jacket, stood at the bottom of her dormitory. Her pure and stunning face was led ihick fur colr of her hood, her eyes clear and bright. She exhaled misty breaths while tapping on her phone.
Her slender fingers, red from the cold, did not hinder her from adding items to her shopping cart.
“Feng Nanshu, I know the group buying is Jiang Qin’s venture, but you ’t keep buying. Our dorm doesn’t have any more space.”
Gao Wenhui sneakily reached out from behind and swiftly snatched the phone, elig a puzzled look.
“Wenhui, give me back my phone. I’ll stop after one more purchase.”
The little rich dy had been up since six in the m, huddled in a er with her phone, quietly supp Jiang Qin by frantically buying as soon as the group buying started.
To Gao Wenhui, this behavior was cute, but their dorm room was only so big and couldn’t aodate much more.
“Didn’t Jiang Qin use a word for this? ‘Squandering’. Right, if you squander any more, I’ll pin to him.”
Feng Nanshu looked up with an aloof expression: “I’m not afraid of him.”
“And what if he stops hanging out with you, stops holding your hand, and forbids people from calling you ‘boss dy’?”
“…”
Struck as if by lightning, Feng Nanshu’s mouth hung open, with wisps of breath esg.
At that moment, Gao Wenhui heard a buzzing sound and saw a call ing to Feng Nanshu’s phone, dispyed as ‘Handsome Bear Stealing Honey from Trees.’
Ah, sweetness everywhere.
That must be Feng Nanshu’s favorite image.
“There’s a call, your husband’s.” Gao Wenhui hahe phone over.
Feng Nanshu spoke coldly: “Jiang Qin, I’m hungry. Take me to lunch.”
Jiang Qin’s voice came through the phone: “Let’s not talk about lunch for now. Why did you buy so much?”
“How do you know?”
“I see your phone number in the bad!”
Feng Nanshu go the right and whispered, “Those were all bought by Gao Wenhui.”
Jiang Qin didn’t expose her lie: “Whoever it is, stop buying. I’m running a dist promotion, and the more you buy, the more I lose!”
“Then, then I won’t buy anymore.”
“Don’t spend blindly, little rich dy. Why is there aric shaver in the order? What are you pnning, shaving ys?”
Feng Nanshu was dumbfounded for a moment, her gaze vat, thinking that Jiang Qin indeed preferred legs over feet.
…
At 12:30 pm, all the goods had been delivered to the dormitories. The dormitory supervisors officially went oarting to distribute the orders acc to pickup numbers, and collected moo close the transas.
This process wasn’t plicated hly teical; it just required a bit of care to manage.
Moreover, the job of a dormitory supervisor was essentially a leisurely ohey often found themselves idle, so being engaged in cheg invoices and distributing goods, while chatting with students and earning some extra money, was not a burden for them.
“208, two bs.”
“305, two packs of d a box of instant noodles.”
“…”
On the first day of group buying going live, most orders were pced by dormitory units, which eased the distribution workload for the supervisors.
Of course, some clever supervisors simply pced the goods in the ma room, letting the students who pced orders pick them up themselves. They would sit on a small stool at the door, taking money and marking orders as plete – earning money while sitting fortably.
Overall, the first business day of the group buying entered no signifit obstacles a smoothly.
Half an hour ter, Tan Qing, leading the marketing team, arrived to collect the payments and check the order pletion status, ensuring there were no missing or unfulfilled orders.
Fortunately, most ers were experieng online shopping for the first time and were enthusiastic. They eagerly waited downstairs for their goods and made payments promptly, with no cases of missing or unfulfilled orders.
But the amount spent by the ‘boss dy’ was astonishing.
Over five hundred – that’s like a college student’s monthly living expean Qing couldn’t help but marvel at the bills.
It was rumored in Room 208 that the ‘boss dy’ was a little rich dy, and this seemed to firm it.
Truly a little angel who spent money without blinking.
Tan Qing collected the invoices auro Room 208, immediately starting to recile the ats with Xu Yu, who was responsible for ating. They checked the order data and the cash, finally piling everything together.
“Boss, the total amount collected for the first batch is 6850.5.”
“How much did we lose?”
“We lost 1078 yuan.”
Jiang Qin he first day’s promotion was aimed at increasiration and user experience. Dists were a must. Although the college supermarket arian street supplied goods at cost price, the red packets and wages for the deliverymen, plus the ission for the dorm supervisors, were all losses.
Moreover, the wages for the staff of Room 208 hadn’t been included yet.
But for Jiang Qin, this amount of loss was trivial. He could withstand a few more such promotions.
“Everyo ready for the orders tonight. There are a lot of people right now, but with the first batch of ers setting an example, the order volume will definitely increase. We might have a small peak tonight.”
“Okay, boss.”
“Wen Hao, Fei Yu, open a special thread on the forum and invite everyoo share their group buying experiences. Gather some feedbaprovements. The rest of you, as usual, go praise the servi the thread.”
“Got it, boss.”
As Jiang Qin finished speaking, everyone in Room 208 sprang into a, filling the office again with the ctter of keyboards.
