Chapter 183 High-Quality Discs for 5 Yuan Each

Jiang Ning hadn’t been to the ‘Shi Ning Ji’ Jiangzhou University Store for a long time.

The result of this was.

When she arrived at the store entrance, she almost didn’t recognize her own store.

Only when she saw the large ‘Shi Ning Ji’ signboard.

Did Miss Jiang realize she had almost ridden past it.

Awkwardly, she turned around.

And rode to the store entrance.

“Oh? Cousin Jiang Ning? You haven’t been here in ages.”

“Busy with school?”

“Right, you’re a high school student, and you have to take university entrance exams.”

Facing the self-explanatory greetings from the store employees.

Miss Jiang smiled awkwardly.

“Where’s cousin?”

“Oh, he’s busy in the changing room.”

“Thanks, you carry on.”

Tian Wenhao was indeed busy.

After all, three new stores had opened all at once.

Although Xiao Ming Xiu was helping her monitor the progress.

Some detailed expenditures and expenses still had to pass through his hands.

At the same time, he also had to inquire about things in the old stores.

Although many things were now running smoothly.

This didn’t mean that the old stores no longer needed attention.

On the contrary.

For the brand to last long.

The operation and maintenance of the old stores were even more important.

This was also Tian Wenhao’s summary of experience from running stores for so long.

Just then.

The door was pushed open.

And in walked a simply dressed, graceful figure, wearing loose trousers and with a small shoulder bag slung across her side.

“Cousin, I’m back.”

Hearing this.

Tian Wenhao was first taken aback.

Then he expressionlessly looked at the mischievous young girl.

“It’s been over half a month, hasn’t it?”

“Finally dare to show your face in front of me?”

Hearing the displeasure in her older cousin’s voice.

Miss Jiang chuckled several times.

Then.

From a hidden compartment in her backpack, she pulled out a disc and gently placed it on the table.

“Hehehehe…”

“What’s this?”

Tian Wenhao picked up the disc with a puzzled expression.

But when he noticed the image on the front of the disc.

In an instant.

His eyes widened.

And his face immediately flushed several shades of red.

He then slammed the disc face down on the table.

With a ‘smack’.

As a result, due to excessive force.

The disc was directly broken into two halves.

“Ning Ning!!!”

Tian Wenhao suppressed his voice and glared at the youthful and lovely girl in front of him.

“You, you, how do you have something like this?!”

“Nonsense! I bought it!” Jiang Ning couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

“Second floor of Global Electronics City, five yuan a piece.”

“I put in a lot of effort to find such a high-quality one for you.”

“What a pity…” Miss Jiang shook her head, her face full of regret.

“It’s broken…”

It took a while.

For Tian Wenhao to painstakingly calm himself down.

He took several deep breaths.

“You’re just a young girl!”

“Going to buy, buy this! Aren’t you afraid of others laughing at you?”

“Laugh at what?” Jiang Ning gave her cousin a look that implied he was making a fuss over nothing.

“I’m here to spend money!”

“If they laugh at me, I’ll leave!”

“What then, do they dare stop me?”

After saying that.

Miss Jiang’s eyes shifted.

“Um, cousin.”

“I’ve already compensated you for the disc aunt confiscated, and you broke it yourself.”

“So, we’re even on this matter, right?”

“And you’re not allowed to bring it up again in the future!”

So that was her intention.

Tian Wenhao shook his head, a little amused and exasperated.

Actually, he had no intention of arguing with his cousin about this matter in the first place.

It was himself…

Never mind.

Just youthful impulsiveness.

Thinking of the disc that had accompanied him through many lonely nights, a faint blush appeared on Tian Wenhao’s honest face.

Then.

After throwing the disc fragments on the table into the trash can, he conveniently handed the documents next to the table to Jiang Ning.

“The No. 2 Middle School store opened yesterday, but sales aren’t great.”

“Only a little over five thousand (yuan) for the whole day.”

“I’ve inquired, the ‘Emperor’s Chicken’ store at No. 2 Middle School had daily sales of almost ten thousand (yuan) when it first opened.”

Hearing this.

Jiang Ning took the report handed to her by Tian Wenhao.

She flipped through it carefully.

Sales were indeed not good.

Especially the burger combo meals.

Less than a hundred sets were sold in a day.

One must know.

The Jiangzhou University store, when it first opened, sold nearly three hundred burger combo meals a day alone.

Not to mention the other three stores.

The Jiangzhou Railway Station store at its peak.

The replenishment vehicles alone went in and out three times a day.

However.

Just by looking at the data report.

Jiang Ning couldn’t find the problem.

To find the reason for low sales, she had to conduct an on-site investigation.

So…

Half an hour later.

Jiang Ning and Tian Wenhao, riding two electric bikes, arrived near Jiangzhou No. 2 Middle School.

Jiangzhou No. 2 Middle School is located in the south of Jiangzhou.

To its south lies Jiangzhou’s largest residential area.

And to its north is Jiangzhou’s only waterway, the Hu River.

The geographical location is good.

And it has a large student population.

If it weren’t for Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School above it.

The development of No. 2 Middle School wouldn’t be limited to this.

Compared to No. 1 Middle School’s comprehensive, three-dimensional teaching philosophy encompassing morality, intelligence, physical education, aesthetics, and labor.

No. 2 Middle School’s characteristic is less rest and more homework.

While other schools were having classes, No. 2 Middle School students were doing practice problems.

While other schools were on holiday, No. 2 Middle School students were still doing practice problems.

By doing a massive amount of practice problems to strengthen memory.

Students could achieve a decent score in exam-oriented education tests.

To be honest.

This method was indeed feasible.

From Jiang Ning’s memory of over thirty years in her previous life.

Jiangzhou No. 2 Middle School, relying on this method, once had a university graduation rate that approached Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School’s.

However, in terms of the number of students admitted to 211 and 985 universities.

It was much lower.

But in Jiang Ning’s opinion, this was already very impressive.

After all, for many students with lower grades.

Being able to get into an undergraduate program was already very difficult, let alone a first-tier undergraduate program.

At this time, No. 2 Middle School was still bustling with people.

Almost every student held an extracurricular practice book and walked hurriedly.

“It’s lunchtime now.”

“There’s only one hour.”

“All students must take care of everything within this period, including eating, going to the restroom, and taking a nap.”

Hearing these words from Tian Wenhao.

Jiang Ning only then remembered that her older cousin also seemed to have graduated from this middle school.

“So rushed, is there enough time?”

“There’s enough time. As long as they don’t take a nap, there’s enough time.”

Alright then.

She also wondered how, in such a busy environment.

That girl Meng Qing managed to find time to work part-time at the store.

It seemed she would have to talk to her when she had time.

Subsequently.

Jiang Ning followed Tian Wenhao and turned onto Jianning Road, opposite No. 2 Middle School.

Which was also No. 2 Middle School’s cafeteria street.

This place gathered all kinds of food available near the school.

Such as vermicelli, rice noodles, BBQ, skewers, and so on…

And Jiang Ning’s ‘Shi Ning Ji’ No. 2 Middle School store was inside this road.

It was almost directly opposite the ‘Emperor’s Chicken’ store, almost door-to-door.

Even standing at the entrance of ‘Shi Ning Ji’, one could see the students eating inside the ‘Emperor’s Chicken’ store.

But compared to the constant stream of customers opposite.

The number of diners on her side was much smaller.

And Jiang Ning also noticed something.

Those dining in the store…

Seemed to be…

Suddenly.

Miss Jiang discovered the crucial detail.

Just then.

A sales assistant in the store saw the siblings at the entrance.

She didn’t recognize Miss Jiang, but they knew Tian Wenhao’s face.

A moment later, a woman of about thirty walked quickly out of the store.

“Manager, why are you here…?”

“Just came to take a look, after all, the new store just opened.”

Tian Wenhao said, pointing to Miss Jiang beside him.

“This is my cousin, Jiang Ning.”

Hearing this.

The woman immediately nodded politely to Jiang Ning.

Then she turned her attention back to Tian Wenhao and began to elaborate on the day’s business situation.

Seeing this.

Jiang Ning did not choose to follow them, but after a quick glance at the store’s decor, she exited the store.

The manager of the No. 2 Middle School store was named Jiang Shuyan, 29 years old, and had a boyfriend for three years.

She used to be a regional manager in a large hypermarket in another city and later returned to Jiangzhou because of her boyfriend.

She had been employed for less than two weeks.

So Jiang Ning hadn’t let her know that she was the actual owner here.

After all, she was still on probation.

There was no need for that.

A moment later.

Jiang Ning, who had looked around the store, had just stepped out of the store when she was immediately stopped by two young men from No. 2 Middle School.

“Student, did you come to the wrong place?”

“If you want to eat…”

As he spoke.

When one of the young men saw that charming and beautiful face.

His expression first froze, then he was stunned for a while, his face showing a mixture of blankness and surprise.

“No. 1 Middle School’s… Jiang Ning?”

Hearing this.

Miss Jiang’s eyebrow twitched, and a sudden ominous premonition flashed through her mind.

Sure enough, in the next second.

This young man acted as if he had gone crazy, turned around, and ran while shouting.

“Jiang Ning!”

“Jiang Ning from No. 1 Middle School is here?!”

???

Looking at the young man, who was acting like a wild monkey.

Miss Jiang was speechless, then she turned her gaze to the other young man, whose face was full of surprise.

“Tell me.”

“What’s the meaning of this?”
