"It's Liu Shuo! Sister! We're high school classmates!" Liu Shuo was annoyed. Damn it, his dream girl didn't even know who he was, even after he stated his na.
Li Shiqi furrowed her pretty brows and thought for a long ti, finally looking toward Zhou Yuwen with a plea for help, "Is he from our class?"
Zhou Yuwen couldn't hold back a burst of laughter.
Hahaha.
"Don't mind her, Li Shiqi only cared about studying in high school, probably doesn't rember any of us," Zhou Yuwen consoled Liu Shuo.
Liu Shuo sighed, ah, his unattainable dream was shattered.
In fact, if it wasn't for this card business, Li Shiqi probably wouldn't even rember Zhou Yuwen. Zhou Yuwen, smiling, looked at the girl who, despite being pretty, was dressed very plainly, "Here to get a card?"
"Mhm!" Li Shiqi nodded earnestly. She didn't co to catch up as classmates, but to make money. She had been waiting for a long ti at the bus stop outside Zhou Yuwen's school, and although she had counted thirty people signing up yesterday, only twenty-two actually showed up today.
Most of these twenty-two were boys, likely chard by Li Shiqi's beauty, and now followed her here.
"These are all the people I called over." Li Shiqi said this with a bit of pride, after all, it was her first ti in sales, and having such pleasing results was sothing to be proud of.
Zhou Yuwen nodded and told them to line up over there.
It was not easy to control such a big crowd.
Fortunately, Liu Shuo had a certain commanding presence. Seeing everyone forming a lengthy queue at the card station, he quickly had other classmates help out to stabilize the situation.
Soon, about fifty to sixty people ford a line at the school gate. Newcors, seeing the long line, beca curious.
"What's going on?" At that mont, Zhou Yuwen was standing and chatting with Liu Shuo and Li Shiqi. A parent of one of the new students, seeing them standing idly, approached to strike up a conversation.
"We're getting phone cards."
Zhou Yuwen, seeing that it was a new student, patiently explained that making calls with out-of-town cards is expensive, so new students often get a local card. Moreover, our campus card not only allows for calls but also offers 30GB of general data and free broadband each month.
"Here's a flyer, take a look."
Zhou Yuwen handed the flyer to the inquiring parent, then explained that there were three different plans corresponding to three different broadband services.
Zhou Yuwen didn't aggressively sell the cards but gave a clear explanation. If there's a need, one could sign up; if not, it's okay to think it over and co back later.
After hearing Zhou Yuwen's explanation, the new student's parent thought it made sense and asked their child, "Do you want to get one?"
A freshman just starting university would definitely want to.
Zhou Yuwen, however, smilingly said, "Uncle, no need to rush. Let's first take the kid to the dormitory to drop off the belongings and get settled. You can get a card anywhere in the school anyti. And, this flyer has a map of our school, see where your child's dormitory is and take them there first."
By saying this, Zhou Yuwen left an even better impression on the parent, who then asked for Zhou Yuwen's number.
To co back later, for their child to get the card.
"Eh, actually, I personally suggest that one card per dormitory is enough. After all, these days everyone hardly makes calls. The main reason for getting a campus card is for the free broadband, so one card per dorm is sufficient," Zhou Yuwen gave them his phone number, then added.
Afterward, the parent left with their child.
Liu Shuo and Li Shiqi looked at Zhou Yuwen, who had just been eloquent and persuasive, a bit stunned.
Turning around, Zhou Yuwen saw their expressions and snapped his fingers, "Why are you looking at like that?"
"It's just, Brother Zhou, you've changed so much," Liu Shuo said earnestly.
Because Zhou Yuwen's deanor had just now not resembled that of a high school student, but rather that of a seasoned sales rep.
Zhou Yuwen said with a smile, "Driven by the necessities of life, after all, my family isn't like yours with a factory."
"Hey, Brother Zhou, saying that kind of takes the fun out of it!" Despite his words, Liu Shuo still felt sowhat happy.
Zhou Yuwen's words struck a chord with Li Shiqi, and suddenly she admired Zhou Yuwen a little. She felt she still had a lot to learn; if she wanted to make money, she needed to be as proficient as Zhou Yuwen and seize every opportunity to earn money.
"Miss, what are you doing here?"
At this mont, another parent ca over with their child to inquire.
"Oh, we're handling mobile card sales over here, auntie."
Li Shiqi started to imitate Zhou Yuwen's manner, holding a flyer and providing a detailed introduction of the packages to the auntie. Although she seed a bit awkward, she was indeed very serious.
Since she was slightly bending over, a lock of hair hung over her forehead. She then tucked the stray strand behind her ear, tirelessly explaining to the parents.
Clearly, this parent was not very interested. As soon as they heard it would cost money, they waved their hand and walked away with their child.
This left Li Shiqi feeling sowhat disappointed. Zhou Yuwen smiled and said, "It happens all the ti, don't mind it."
Li Shiqi nodded at Zhou Yuwen and then said with a smile, "I need to learn more from you!"
"Learn from ?" Zhou Yuwen laughed when he heard this but didn't say much.
Today, the preliminary count of people Yuwen estimated to sign up for cards was around one hundred to one hundred and thirty. Later on, because they attracted quite a few passers-by, he guessed the number might reach one hundred fifty. In reality, most people were just there to look and not necessarily to sign up for a card.
Honestly, the scene was quite chaotic, but thankfully, Liu Shuo and his friends were there, putting in every effort to help. Later, as the crowd grew, the store staff were overwheld and another person was called in, then they brought over another table and two chairs.
For these heavy tasks, Liu Shuo rallied the students to help out eagerly, and even set up a sun umbrella for them.
Although their grades might not be great and they might not have gotten into their ideal universities, the kids seed very down-to-earth. They appeared to have boundless energy and were not stingy with their efforts.
Later on, Yuwen felt a bit embarrassed and went to the convenience store to buy them so cold drinks, handing them out one by one, saying how much he appreciated their hard work.
"Go rest under the tree. There's no need to stand in the sun."
"No worries, Brother Zhou!" These earnest young people said with wide smiles.
Even though they hadn't known Zhou Yuwen for long, they admired him a lot. He was the sa age as them but was already capable of organizing such a big event.
He truly was worthy of Liu Shuo's friendship.
While Zhou Yuwen was busily caught up in his work, Chen Wan returned to their student association volunteers' shade area. The student association mbers were quite puzzled.
"Hey, Chen Wan, what is your little junior doing? Why have even the store's staff co over?"
"Wasn't he just helping you draw in custors?"
Earlier, while Zhou Yuwen was talking with Liu Shuo, Chen Wan had actually stood there for a while. Her mind was a bit muddled, mainly because she hadn't reacted yet. She had originally thought Zhou Yuwen was a new student, but he suddenly turned out to be a general agent, which would catch anyone off guard.
As more and more people ca by, the store even set up a booth for card sales.
Only then did Chen Wan have her belated realization.
Now, looking at Yuwen and his group busily processing cards, and recalling what Yuwen had said to her earlier, Chen Wan felt conflicted for a while.
She had taken the card sales job from a senior in their third year, and for each card, she would only get a thirty yuan commission.
But on Yuwen's side, there was a fifty yuan commission.
From her side, thirty people that equated to a fifteen hundred yuan commission.
No one would purposely avoid making money.
"Chen Wan? What are you thinking about?"
Just then a fellow from the student association asked.
Chen Wan looked at them and asked, "How much commission does Liu Zhe give you for each card sale?"
"Thirty, isn't it thirty for everyone?"
"Don't go with him anymore! Do it here instead, here the commission is fifty per card. I'm going to send a ssage now to have everyone co over!"
