Chapter 3 First Acquaintance and Love
Bai Xuesong took the money given by his father and rented a small shop on that small street. The supply of goods has the help of friends, and I also went to run some channels, and the store opened smoothly, and the business is really good. After all, it is very prosperous, and there are many people who go there to buy things. The main thing is next to a normal university, and there are many female students studying teacher training, and when there are no classes or in the evening, groups of female college students will run to this street, which has become the best place for them to spend their spare time. Although the students were not very wealthy at that time, they also generated some consumption, so they also became the main source of business in this street. Chen Hong is a female college student at this school.
On the one hand, there is a self-employed person who does his own business, and on the other hand, a young and beautiful girl who goes to college, such a street must cause something. And Bai Xuesong is the only one of all the small bosses on this street who has gone to college, and he studied economics, although he has no social experience, but he can still use what he has learned in this small shop. His small shop is relatively not worse than others, and the other shopkeepers are all little bastards who have not gone to school seriously, or even ruffians, so he is different, and this difference is manifested in many aspects, such as the design of his shop, his way of doing things, some publicity in the store, etc., including some promotional methods are the same one after another, these things that come up with his mind are never considered by other small bosses, and it is these that attract those female college students even more. Of course, it also includes Chen Hong, but Chen Hong is concerned about the clothing style here, and it has nothing to do with Bai Xuesong, but Bai Xuesong has long paid attention to this beautiful girl.
At first, Bai Xuesong didn't think about having anything to do with Chen Hong, at that time, he was all about business, all his thoughts were how to get rich, and he didn't think about love at all, although he was twenty-four or five years old.
His first feeling when he saw Chen Hong was to think of those very simple female classmates when he was in college, but a few years have passed, and now the living conditions of college students are much better than before, and they are much more fashionable in dressing, he has already used his brain in this regard, and he should be able to find a way to open the market next to the university, provided that he needs to meet the people here as soon as possible, so he targeted Chen Hong.
The reason why he chose to know Chen Hong was because Chen Hong was beautiful, and the most important thing was that he found that Chen Hong was the head of those female students. In fact, Chen Hong was the vice president in charge of publicity in the student union at the school, and had a wide range of interpersonal relationships in the school. Bai Xuesong was not mistaken, Chen Hong was indeed capable, so after observing for a while, he decided to break through from here and open the market of his small shop.
Chen Hong naturally had no impression of Bai Xuesong, and the female college students at that time were very arrogant and disdainful of these small shopkeepers, but Chen Hong gradually found that Bai Xuesong's small shop often came to some foreign trade goods with very novel styles, and the price was not expensive, which was something that her economic conditions and her aesthetics could accept, so she became a frequent visitor here.
Although Bai Xuesong had already noticed this fair-looking, very beautiful, not tall but very cheerful female student, she wanted to get to know Chen Hong, but she never had any other thoughts. He is self-aware, he is just a self-employed person who runs a small clothing store, and he does not dare to climb high for a female college student like this. It's just that every time Chen Hong comes, he will sell her something at the lowest price, and he will even give Chen Hong some of the large quantities of goods. He just wanted to get close to Chen Hongtao first, and try to get her to help him pull some customers. Chen Hong began not to accept the clothes sent by Bai Xuesong, after all, they were not very familiar. Bai Xuesong found a good excuse and told Chen Hong to let her wear those clothes to school, which could help him do publicity, which was equivalent to being a model, and if there were classmates who inquired, they could be introduced to the store to buy. Bai Xuesong said this, Chen Hong is inconvenient to refuse, there is really a deal to buy goods, and Bai Xuesong will give Chen Hong a reward.
Chen Hong also reciprocated his care, becoming a regular customer in his shop, never leaving empty-handed almost every time she came, and bringing her sisters with her. So the small bosses of several shops around also began to pay attention to the two of them, these little bosses are all young men in their twenties, and their nerves are very sensitive. He also told everyone that people are college students, and we can't afford to climb without culture. Bai Xuesong never told his friends in the store that he had also gone to college, he felt that college students should go to work hard, but he wasted the opportunity and mixed up in society, he still felt dishonorable.
Among them, there is an older brother who understands better, telling Bai Xuesong that a college student like Chen Hong can become a teacher in the future, nothing special, if you really have an idea, hurry up, don't waste the opportunity.
Listening to this big brother's words, Bai Xuesong began to have an epiphany, although he gave up his serious job, but he has a little money now, and thinking that Chen Hong will be nothing more than a middle school teacher in the future, and there is not much advantage and disparity between high and low compared to him, so he began to muster up the courage to pursue Chen Hong.
For poor college students like Chen Hong, Bai Xuesong is a big money in their eyes, not to mention that Bai Xuesong is not ugly, and he can speak well, humorous and playful, and he still looks like a responsible person. So Chen Hong is willing to come to him to buy things, and he is also willing to accept things from him. She didn't think much about it until one day Bai Xuesong asked her to have dinner with her.
At the beginning, Chen Hong came to Bai Cedar's store with her classmates, everyone just went shopping, and it didn't matter if they bought things or not, because the school life was too monotonous, and coming here was to pass the time. But after Bai Xuesong sent her a few clothes, she suddenly felt that it was not convenient to call her classmates to come together, after all, it would be very special to have someone else in Bai Xuesong who only gave her one person, and if she gave it to someone else's classmate, it would be too big, so she began to frequent it alone, which created more opportunities and conditions for the two of them to get to know each other. Sometimes Chen Hong will stay here for a long time, not to buy things, but to chat with Bai Xuesong, she sits behind the cashier in the innermost part of the shop, and sometimes Bai Xuesong goes out and asks her to help look at the store, as if she has become a proprietress lady.
Every winter and summer vacation is the peak season on this street, small bosses like Bai Xuesong generally go south to Guangzhou to buy goods, but the store is not big, if you hire another person The cost is too high, so the time to buy goods will be closed, but Bai Xuesong's brain is more flexible, he thought that Chen Hong had a holiday, just to help him look at the store, give some basic salary, and sell things and commissions, so that Chen Hong has some income, Bai Xuesong does not have to close the store when he goes out to buy goods, and his heart is much more steady.
Bai Xuesong is the first person to hire a salesman on this street, and for his income, it is more than enough to take out a part of his salary to pay his salary, of course, his purpose is also very clear, through this way, she can get closer to Chen Hong.
The owners of the surrounding small shops also found out about his actions, so they asked Chen Hong to help summon her female classmates, almost all the salespeople on this street are Chen Hong's classmates, those female students are young and beautiful, vibrant, polite, and cultured, forming a beautiful landscape on this small street.
These girls in their twenties wore all kinds of clothes in the store and became living models, standing in front of the store, one by one living billboards, so business on the side street was particularly prosperous that year.
Soon Chen Hong had reached her graduation year, and her studies were not very intense, so the school began to let them find a place to intern. Their future goals are simple and clear, so the direction of the internship is to the nearby middle school, and there is not much to do, just to cope with the unified arrangement of the school.
Chen Hong is about to graduate and is about to leave here. Bai Xuesong felt that he could no longer miss the opportunity, and he clearly expressed his love to Chen Hong.
Chen Hong herself did not object, she was able to get along with Bai Xuesong, that is, she had already accepted him. It's just that after she reported the matter to her parents, she was immediately opposed by her parents.
Chen Hong's parents are both teachers and can be regarded as an intellectual family. Hearing that Bai Xuesong is just a self-employed person selling clothes, and in their eyes he is a jobless vagrant, which still puts a lot of pressure on Chen Hong's parents. They only have one daughter, Chen Hong, and they naturally have high requirements and great hopes for their daughter's marriage, with their daughter's conditions, at least they will not marry someone who doesn't even have a stable job. Chen Hong explained to them that Bai Xuesong also graduated from college, which made them even more confused.
"Now that you're in college, why don't you find a solid job and be self-employed?"
"What's wrong with being self-employed, being self-employed is also a kind of work, and you can also earn money to support yourself."
"Just know the money, the country will teach you in vain."
"People also pay taxes to the state, and it's not illegal."
"Anyway, we don't agree with you finding a self-employed person, you have to think about it for the future."
"What happened after that? Maybe he'll be able to make a career out of it in the future. He will not be self-employed for the rest of his life, he has ideals, and he is ready to open his own company and become a big boss in the future. ”
However, Chen Hong's father was relatively open, listening on the sidelines, carefully savoring what Chen Hong said, and did not put forward any opinions at that time, and then found a time for him to pull his wife for a private interview with Weifu.
