In the morning, Chen Haoxuan sold only one phone, but he managed to sell quite a few clothes. What left him speechless was that all his customers were girls; not a single boy made a purchase. He knew why those girls were buying from him—wasn't it simply because he was good-looking? He thought to himself, "Do they all think I'm just a pretty boy?"
In business, once the price is agreed upon, if you have time, he will immediately deliver the items you purchased. To make his customers happier, Chen Haoxuan casually bought some wrapping paper and ribbons when he went back to get the goods. Upon returning home, he wrapped all the clothes and phones that had been ordered by others in beautiful packaging. Each item was exquisitely wrapped by Chen Haoxuan; just looking at the exterior, one would think there was something valuable inside.
Once everything was ready, Chen Haoxuan rode his bicycle back to New City University. At the entrance of New City University, he parked his bike and took out a few packs of cigarettes to give to the security guard at the gate, trying to get on friendly terms with him. After receiving the guard's approval, he temporarily stored his goods in the security room at the entrance of New City University.
Chen Haoxuan began delivering each item personally to the buyers: "Hello, you must be Student Chen? You look even better in person than in your photos. Here is the clothing you ordered; it totals five hundred thirty yuan. Thank you! Also, this little item is a gift; it's very cute, and I like it too. Look, I’m wearing one on my wrist."
"Thank you! I really like what you gave me," said the girl who received the items happily. She noticed the beads on Chen Haoxuan's wrist were identical to the one he had given her, which made her very happy as if she had suddenly discovered a commonality between herself and Chen Haoxuan.
For each customer, Chen Haoxuan gave a small gift. Don't underestimate this small gift; its impact is significant because when customers see it, they will remember your store. Moreover, the small gift Chen Haoxuan offered was simple yet elegant—a white jade bead tied with a black string. If customers wore it on their wrists, perhaps their friends would notice and ask where it came from. When they answered, another person would learn about Chen Haoxuan's store.
Chen Haoxuan was highly efficient; within an hour, he delivered products to every customer.
When Chen Haoxuan returned to class and opened his laptop, he found more business waiting for him. This person immediately requested his highest-end phone. Chen Haoxuan felt it would be troublesome to take on more orders and deliver them himself again. So he thought of a good idea: to have Chen Yina help him take orders and handle deliveries, splitting the profits fifty-fifty.
When Chen Yina heard about Chen Haoxuan's proposal to partner in business with her, she rejected him without hesitation because she felt it was unfair for her to receive fifty percent of profits without any investment from her side. If she were to invest several thousand yuan for that share of profit, then it would be acceptable.
Chen Haoxuan intentionally set things up so that Chen Yina could benefit from this arrangement. Having lived together for so long, he regarded her as his own sister; in his eyes, there was no difference between his money and hers.
To persuade Chen Yina to agree, Chen Haoxuan had to apply some pressure on her by making her fully responsible for receiving orders and negotiating prices. Additionally, there was an important task: expanding their market by taking their online store offline.
After some coaxing from Chen Haoxuan, Chen Yina finally agreed. Thus began Chen Haoxuan's life of running errands; every day he circulated around school, making him a familiar sight for students at New City University. While others came to university to study, Chen Haoxuan came to earn money.
New City University has a large population, with tens of thousands of people. If Chen Haoxuan could turn all these people into customers, becoming a millionaire would be easy, as most of them are wealthy students.
On this day, Chen Haoxuan sold twenty sets of clothes and five mobile phones, earning over six thousand yuan. Overjoyed, Chen Yina celebrated her successful first day by buying two pounds of Pig Trotters, a pound of pork, a chicken, and various vegetables, preparing for a big feast that evening.
Before dinner, Chen Haoxuan transferred fifty percent of today’s profits to Chen Yina’s bank card using online banking. Seeing such a large sum made Chen Yina very happy because if business continued to be this good every day, she wouldn’t have to worry about her brother's tuition fees, her father's medical expenses, her own tuition fees, or the household living expenses.
After dinner, the two went to Huang Weicheng's house. Although they had some money now, they didn’t want to give up their tutoring jobs just yet. Since they had nothing else to do in the evenings, earning extra money was beneficial.
While teaching Meilin Huang and the others how to play the piano, Chen Haoxuan shared everything he knew without holding back. He intended to nurture Meilin Huang and also wanted to change the perception of music in this era.
Days passed quietly as Chen Haoxuan and Chen Yina's lives improved, with smiles on their faces every day. However, while their spirits were high, the weather was not as favorable; heavy rain continued for days and gradually turned into a storm with strong winds.
To ensure student safety, New City University had to suspend classes and give students a week off. As for tutoring at Huang Weicheng's home, Chen Haoxuan insisted on going but did not allow Chen Yina to accompany him. He was concerned for her safety and insisted she stay home.
Despite the heavy rain and strong winds, Chen Haoxuan's commitment to teaching their children moved the Huang couple deeply.
On April 10th, the weather improved slightly as it had stopped raining temporarily; however, the wind was stronger than usual. The weather forecast Chen Haoxuan checked yesterday indicated that there would be force seven winds today. The flowers and trees along the road swayed and bent under the gusts, making it difficult for Chen Haoxuan to walk against such resistance.
In such weather, most people wouldn’t dare drive due to concerns about debris falling from above or causing accidents from sudden stops. Even Chen Haoxuan was worried; thus, he chose to walk to Huang Weicheng's house. Fortunately, it wasn’t too far away—just over half an hour on foot.
On his way to Huang Weicheng's house, Chen Haoxuan passed by a wide river that resembled the sea because the area around it was flat with no tall buildings or mountains blocking the wind. Therefore, whenever there was strong wind, the river would churn like the sea.
