Chapter 205 Invest in a Campus Bookstore

I can't figure out how it passed for more than a month. I've been in a slump.

I got sick once and lay down in a rented house for two days.

Ding Ying took the initiative to take care of me.

Lying in bed, I always look back on what I call my relationship journey.

Wu Lianzi died.

Wu Shufang died.

Xiong Yanfei died.

If Yu Huihui from Jiangcun Middle School is also counted, almost all of the girls who fell in love with or liked me have gone to another world. And the only fire storage jade that does not have a "desperate life" is no different from a "desperate life".

What is the reason for this? Is it inevitable or coincidence? If it is a coincidence, this coincidence is too exaggerated, and it can be regarded as "no one is spared"; And if it is inevitable, then there must be a predestined arrangement in the dark. This fateful arrangement is: you can't fall in love with Zheng Qihang! All the girls who are attracted to Zheng Qihang or fall in love with him at first sight must find a way to stay away from him, otherwise, endless disasters will befall them.

No, no, how is this possible? If this assumption is true, what has become of me Zheng Qihang? Is it a demon? Or a ghost? Or is it the devil?

But how did I become a devil? What is Demon? What is Ghost? I'm Zheng Qihang, a hot-blooded young man with no superpowers, no superpowers, no spells, and no flexibility!

This person, if there is anything weird, it's just that the middle finger of his left hand has one more meat ring than ordinary people!

This person, if there is anything strange, is just that when he was thirteen years old, he climbed the Optimus Pillar Cliff with a girl named Hao Junqi!

Stop, stop. Stop there.

Fission! The Optimus Stone Pillar cracked into a concave and convex stone wall in an instant, and the eight big characters "Forever United, Never Abandoned" flashed between the stone walls, moving like subtitles, and then promised:

"Forever united, never abandoned, brother, what does this mean?" Hao Junqi asked.

"I don't know. I guess it means that two people will never be separated. I said.

"Then my brother and I will never leave each other." Hao Junqi grabbed my hand, "Brother, are you willing?" ”

"Of course my brother does. Come, I'll give you this oversized plum blossom. The two of us will never leave each other. ”

"Well, the eternal knot will never be abandoned."

Then, this person and Hao Junqi each had an extra meat ring on their middle fingers.

So, is this a coincidence or a kind of predestinence? You know, the ring has its special meaning, otherwise, why would a married man and a woman have to give each other rings?

But if you want to speculate like this, does it mean that God made a marriage between me and Hao Junqi when I was thirteen years old? According to the legend, could it be that Yue Lao tied the two ends of the red thread to me and Hao Junqi when I was thirteen years old?

But to speculate like this, does it mean that I had a headache when Xiong Yanfei and I had two more intimate behaviors, and the scene of the bumpy stone wall flashed in my mind, which was a hint from God, or even a hindrance to my emotional development - I can't have any emotional development with any other girl!

But if you want to speculate like this, does it mean that whether it is Wu Lianzi, Wu Shufang, Xiong Yanfei, or Yu Huihui, their endings are all caused by God's guidance. The reason why God wants to make such an arrangement is to fulfill that promise. And the reason why Chu Huoyu can still live in peace is because she took the initiative to choose to give up.

No, no, if all these speculations are true, then why did God want Hao Junqi to disappear for so long, and why did he block any news from Hao Junqi?

You could say that God is testing me. So, is such a test too long? Eleven years! I am twenty-four years old, and Hao Junqi is twenty-three years old.

A girl in the countryside is already a mother of two or three children at the age of twenty-three!

If you really test me, you don't want Hao Junqi to sink into the sea, whether it is from the sea, or from the air, whether it is from hell or from heaven, you can send even a little news about Hao Junqi.

……

That month, while dealing with various matters after Wu Lianzi's death, we also made a major decision to invest in the school's bookstore with Chu Huoyu.

You must know that after "freedom", the stay of Chu Huoyu has always been our greatest concern.

Chu Huoyu's idea was that when Wu Lianzi's affairs were dealt with, she would return to her birthplace. Ding Ying and I both felt that it was very inappropriate, and we both hoped that Chu Huoyu would stay in the provincial capital and find something to do.

"What else can someone like me find to do?" Chu Huoyu smiled bitterly.

"How can you say that," Ding Ying put her arms around Chu Huoyu's waist, "Sister Huoyu, you are the one I admire the most, don't feel inferior to others." ”

"That's because you look up to me." Chu Huoyu was very moved.

"It's true, Sister Huoyu. The question is what to do? Ding Ying let go of the hand holding Chu Huoyu's waist and paced in front of me, "It's not okay to go to the hotel to be a waiter, and it's not okay to go to the restaurant to serve dishes and wash dishes." Hey, I said Zheng Qihang, don't you leave it out of the way, okay? Help think about it. ”

"I don't know how much it costs to take that bookstore down." I say.

There was a bookstore in a row of small storefronts in front of the college's student apartments that wanted to be transferred, and I kept an eye out for it several times.

"By the way, why didn't you say it earlier?" Ding Ying patted me on the shoulder, "Or I said that you are the one who has the most ideas." Inquire about this matter. ”

"Would you like to light it up, please?" I pretended to fall, "I'm going to be a disabled child." ”

Everyone laughs.

Ding Ying quickly inquired about the news. The bookstore was run by a relative of one of the leaders of the college, who had to close its doors and transfer it because he was seriously unwell and did not have the energy to continue the business.

"I heard that there are several people who are fighting the idea of this shop, and they are all relatives of the leaders of the academy, what seven aunts and eight aunts."

"Then let's forget it," Chu Huoyu immediately retreated, "Besides, I don't know how much the transfer fee will cost." ”

"Sister Huoyu, retreating in the face of difficulties is not your style of doing things." Ding Ying said.

"She doesn't want to trouble us." I say.

"As far as you know." Ding Ying glanced at me, "Sister Huoyu, the matter of competition is handed over to Zheng Qihang, he has a way." It's really not good, just let him sacrifice his body. ”

"Hey, Ding Ying, what do you mean, sacrificing your body?" The meaning of Ding Ying's words, I couldn't turn around for a while.

Chu Huoyu also looked at Ding Ying puzzled.

"Oh, I said you really don't understand or fake don't understand, who is the leader of our academy now? Professor Ai. Who are you Zheng Qihang? Professor Ai's protégé. And ......"

"What else?" I asked.

"Professor Ai's daughter is very fond of you. If you have to, you have to make some sacrifices. Ding Ying said in a weird way.

Chu Huoyu couldn't help but smile.

I'm so angry that my lungs are going to explode.

"Just kidding, just kidding," Ding Ying "will accept it when you see it", "Didn't I see that you were depressed, and deliberately stimulated you." For the sake of Sister Huoyu, you have to get off the horse no matter what, right? ”

"Are you so confident in me? Do I have such a good impression on Professor Ai? Also, how do you understand that? ”

"I understand that? Because my dad is the principal of Huangbai Normal College. As long as Dean Ai nodded, the seven aunts and eight aunts of the other leaders all stood aside. ”

Ding Ying's words are not unreasonable. The head of a village has the final say, and the dean of an academy has the final say.

"You know better than me how good your impression of Professor Ai is," Ding Ying continued, "When it comes to confidence, it comes from your ability, and now many people look at you, and Lu Su looks at Lu Meng - impressed." ”

"What about transfer fees? And rent. Also, once the transfer is successful, how do you do it? I said. These are the ones who really have to consider Chu Huoyu and discuss with Chu Huoyu.

We sat down and talked about it several times.

There are no problems with funding. Ding Ying's 12,000 and my 4,000 are still in their respective folds, and Chu Huoyu still has 5,000 deposits. Originally, we planned to lend 4,000 each to Chu Huoyu and let her operate it alone, but in order to reduce the pressure on Chu Huoyu, it was finally decided to be a partnership investment. One person contributed 4,000.

We calculated it and invested 12,000 in the bookstore, which is enough to operate normally. In addition to the transfer fee, in addition to the rent of the store, there are 7,000 yuan for store renovation and the purchase of new books, which can greatly make the bookstore look new.

In terms of operation, Chu Huoyu deliberately went to the bookstores of Agricultural University and University of Finance and Economics to learn about learning. Referring to the business model and layout of these bookstores, Chu Huoyu put forward her idea.

According to Chu Huoyu's idea, combined with the age characteristics of medical students, it is planned to divide the bookstore into six areas: fashion magazines, entertainment and leisure, Hong Kong and Taiwan romance, classic martial arts, Chinese and foreign classics, and rental and loan.

The rental loan class is for those college students who are stretched thin.

Although the school has a library, and there is no shortage of Chinese and foreign classics on the shelves, those books are generally old, the pages are yellowed, and there is a strong musty smell, and there are still many bookworms who are willing to pay for new books, and enjoy the faint fragrance of ink while receiving the influence of the thoughts of literary masters. So, the discussion went on and on, and we still settled on this area.

As for the first four districts, of course, they are the categories that bookstores focus on, and they are also the most lucrative categories for bookstores on every college campus.

But what we are most worried about is that we will not be able to win the right to operate!

The operation of a campus bookstore involves interests, and it is no longer as simple as a professor's interest in students. Ding Ying's words were purely a joke.

If Professor Ai, no, Dean Ai, to wipe off the face of his leaders and transfer the management rights to a student at the university, he must be given a suitable reason—a reason that is enough to make him happy, and this reason can be so high-sounding that the other leaders are speechless.

The reason for this is, of course, - college students start their own businesses.

"It's not enough, you have to do what you like." Ding Ying said.

"Do what you like?" Chu Huoyu and I both looked at Ding Ying.

"That's right."

"Which book and which book does your idea come from?" I asked.

"It's still my father. My father's collections were given to him by those who asked for him. ”

"Please continue to analyze." Ding Ying's words are not unreasonable.

"Anyone who wins the right to run a bookstore has a stake in the head of the college. In fact, every department of the college, even as small as a barbershop, has an inextricable interest in the leadership of the college, do you believe it? Ding Ying continued to analyze.

We all nodded.

"So—what does Dean Ai like?" I say.

"Then it's up to you to get out of the way. Ask her daughter, Sadako Ai. Ding Ying seemed to be smiling.
