"Are you playing with your phone in class again?"
Li Qingrong replied instantly, "Watch."
Jiang Nian was stunned for a few seconds, also admitting defeat.
"Passed, now preparing for the computerized test for Subject Four."
"Oh." Li Qingrong replied, and then went silent for a few minutes, finally saying, "Do you need a car to drive?"
Jiang Nian almost broke into a sweat, glancing at Coach Tian who had just returned from handling paperwork.
"I’m going into the exam room, don’t need it for now."
Subject Four is simpler than Subject One, Jiang Nian casually took the test and scored a 95, exiting the exam room directly.
Coach Tian stood at the door, eagerly asking.
Jiang Nian nodded, "Passed."
"That’s great!" Coach Tian exclaimed with excitement, "Wait for me, I’ll find someone to get the driver’s license made."
With nothing to do, Jiang Nian was idle and aimless.
He squatted by the flowerbed at the entrance of the DMV first-floor lobby, holding his phone to reply to WeChat messages one by one, passed, passed.
Over at school, classes were still ongoing, so Zhizhi and Chen Yunyun couldn’t respond immediately.
Only Holy Emperor Li Qingrong kept instant-replying, completely ignoring the class rules; this period should be Qianbao’s class.
Tsk tsk, poor Qianbao.
The time flew by, and it was close to noon dismissal.
Jiang Nian got out of the car, greeted Lao Tian, and left.
He pretended to head towards the school, took a few steps, waited for Lao Tian to drive off, then couldn’t help pulling out his driver’s license to admire it.
A fresh driver’s license, just feels great.
"Damn, so damn cool." Jiang Nian strutted around for a while, seeing that class hadn’t been dismissed yet, he decided to find a place to grab a quick bite.
Bzz, the phone resting on a napkin on the greasy table vibrated.
Zhao Qiuxue: "On my way to Hang City."
Jiang Nian was eating a wooden bucket meal without an actual wooden bucket, the lazy ass owner didn’t even bother pretending and gave him a metal basin.
He glanced at the message, unsure what to say.
Zhao Qiuxue: "Mm-hmm."
Jiang Nian hesitated for a moment, chopsticks paused mid-air.
Speaking of which, his current relationship with Zhao Qiuxue was a bit complicated. Since she’s an elder, it’s not appropriate to send a red envelope.
But the two of them, there’s a faint hint of a cooperative relationship.
Jiang Nian was optimistic about Hang City’s e-commerce; Zhao Qiuxue probably also sought advice these past few days, perhaps verified it, or maybe found a way.
Anyway, she was happy to be the trailblazer.
Also thanks to Song Xiyun, there’s a natural cooperative ground. No one would trick the other, and if they did, they’d use her daughter to offset the debt.
Just so it saves on dowry, a win-win.
But in reality, all he could do was wait and see, wait for Zhao Qiuxue in Hang City to contact him about the partnership.
If she didn’t, then fine.
Buzz, another message from Zhao Qiuxue.
"Little Brother Jiang, I asked around. E-commerce is indeed feasible. Let me figure it out first, and I’ll tell you later."
"After all, you’re going to do this too in the future, might as well use it as a reference."
Upon seeing this, Jiang Nian’s eyelids twitched.
He immediately lost his appetite, fiddling with his phone for a while, ultimately sending a message to Zhao Qiuxue.
"Do you need startup funds?"
After a while, Zhao Qiuxue replied off-topic.
"You haven’t asked for a refund yet."
Jiang Nian got her meaning; if he didn’t ask for the refund, she’d feel uncomfortable, equating to an unpaid debt.
People struggling financially don’t like being in debt; with uncertain income, they might not be able to pay it back later.
Of course, except for those with thick skin.
He thought for a moment and sent over a picture.
"Busy getting a driver’s license, just received it."
Zhao Qiuxue: "(Smile) Congratulations!"
Jiang Nian deliberated, typing out a message. He hinted at collaborating to explore the market; if it failed, they’d split the loss 50/50.
Zhao Qiuxue didn’t immediately agree, but replied.
"I’ll first go to Sijiqing to look for some opportunities."
Sijiqing is a clothing wholesale market in Hang City; e-commerce merchants dealing in fashion are either in Yang City or Hang City.
Renting a place, the venue and software are quite an expense.
At least, Zhao Qiuxue couldn’t afford it.
If wanting to break through in e-commerce, one needs a hit product. And creating a hit requires the right timing, location, and people.
Perhaps a certain show, a variety star wore a certain outfit, and it became a hit.
Or perhaps something else.
Overall, it’s not easy to go from zero to one.
Jiang Nian didn’t continue messaging, hurriedly finished a few bites, and returned to school; he could only take one step at a time.
He paid, turned around, and returned to school.
The classroom was mostly empty already, Jiang Nian went back to his seat. Habitually, he pulled out a test paper and started working on it.
Ding, a mechanical synthesized voice sounded. Content originally comes from novel⦿fire.net
[Organize your desk, be a tidy man. A clean environment will be more likely to attract women’s favor.
ps: A 38-year-old’s life is a mess, Xu Qianqian and Zhang Ningzhi both have complaints about your untidy habits.
Task: Do a desk cleanup. Reward: Minor skill: Harmony.]
Jiang Nian stared blankly at the suddenly popped-up panel.
The last task seems unfinished too; having a night chat with Xu Qianqian isn’t easy, especially spending the night alone.
Even if in the same space, it’s unlikely to truly open up for a night chat.
So Jiang Nian didn’t push it; after all, Song Xiyun would officially move into Xu Qianqian’s house today, becoming a female tenant.
Three people having a night chat is still a night chat!
Overall, it’s less challenging, just needing the right moment. A suitable atmosphere, with a little guidance, would complete it.
After all, the system didn’t say a night chat couldn’t include another person.
The main task turned into an interaction task, and it can even detect Xu Qianqian and Zhang Ningzhi’s mindset in the future?
