Chapter 536 The Subsidiary
"Yes, master!"
Wen Rourou stood up cheerfully and received the congratulations from all others.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Ding Ning coughed twice. When the crowd was quiet, he took out a few things and gave them to Wen Rourou. "Well, this matter happened so suddenly, and I haven’t prepared anything, so take these things first. Later, I will give you our first master-student-meeting gift."
"What are these things?"
Wen Rourou turned the ointments in her hand curiously and said, "Flawless Jade Scar Cream, Ice Skin Whitening Cream, Water Exquisite Moisturizing Mask, Hongyanzui Freckle-removing Essence…"
Mosquito snatched the scar cream and had joy in her eyes. "This is the scar cream that Sister Nuo used last time."
Everyone’s eyes brightened suddenly, and they stepped forward to take a look. When she returned to Yan Jing, Mosquitoes always remembered this scar cream and mentioned its magical effect many times in front of them.
Although they were all men and were not very interested in scar creams, their sisters, relatives, and beloved women needed them.
Mosquito held the Flawless Jade Scar Cream so fondly that she did not want to put it down, and she said shamelessly, "Rourou, give this scar cream to me. When I have a baby, this item will work!"
"No, it’s a first-meeting gift from my master."
Wen Rourou had already begun to have sparkles in her eyes. Like a little wild cat protecting its food, she snatched it back.
Mosquito was furious. "You cherish your lover more than your friend! It is only a bottle of scar cream, isn’t it? You are mean! Huh, you make me so sad!"
"It has nothing to do with cherishing my lover more than my friend, okay! This is a first-meeting gift from my master. I can’t give it to anyone."
She spoke righteously, but when she saw Mosquito pout, she felt a little sorry. After thinking a long time, she said unwillingly, "Well, later, you can get a bottle, and I will give half of it to you, okay?"
"That’s better!"
Mosquito stopped crying and began to smile. Joyfully, she pushed away a group of men and went with Wen Rourou to count the "loots". It seemed that she planned to take half of them, so that Wen Rourou did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Uh, Brother Ning, do you still have anything like this? Uh, hehe, you know…"
Yang Ge was cheeky, rubbing his hands and looking at Ding Ning with a flattering expression.
Ding Ning was quite speechless. "You are a man, and what do you want that thing for?"
"Start with me to love our skin!"
Yang Ge spoke seriously, causing everyone to laugh, but Huzi rolled his eyes. "You want to curry favor with your little lover, don’t you? Don’t use an awe-inspiring tone!"
"You are my brother or not, Huzi? How could you pull the rug from under my feet like this? I’ll fight you."
Yang Ge was exposed and immediately became angry. He rushed ferociously to Huzi, but the latter refused to admit being inferior, so the two began their play-fight.
"Come on, stop it. I have nothing. How could I bring so many things with me?"
Seeing that everyone looked disappointed, Ding Ning immediately seized the opportunity to advertise, "But you don’t have to be disappointed because Xiaoyao is now preparing the Zuihongyan Cosmetics Company. This series of cosmetics will be on the market soon, and you can go to her to book the product."
"Fuck, really? Will Xiaoyao really open a company? No, I have to book one set."
Yang Ge’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he hurriedly took out his mobile phone to call Xiaoyao. "When will your cosmetics go on sale, my dearest Sister Xiaoyao? I want to book a set… no, two sets… no, three sets… please wait!"
"Give me three sets first."
"I also want three sets."
"I want ten sets."
…
Everyone started to report the numbers they wanted, and Huzi counted the numbers on the side. In the blink of an eye, Zuihongyan had received 580 sets of orders even before it opened.
Yang Ge beamed and roared, "What? One set of the supreme version is 88,000? One set of the ordinary version is 8,800? I must have the supreme version. Is money a problem for me?"
Mosquitoes walked hurriedly over and grabbed the phone. "Xiaoyao, don’t give them the goods now. Listen to me…"
"What do you mean, Mosquito?" Yang Ge asked unhappily.
Mosquito raised her eyebrows proudly and said, "Tell me, are we still the best brothers and sisters?"
"We must be!" Lu Tingzhen said with brotherhood code stubbornly.
"That’s enough. From today on, I am the boss of the Yan Jing branch of Zuihongyan Cosmetics Company. If you want goods in the future, all of you can come to me, and you will save trouble," Mosquito said proudly.
"That’s true, but you are getting married soon, and you will have a baby soon, so can you manage so much work?"
Yang Ge immediately realized the huge business opportunity in it and rubbed his hands, flattering, "Do you need a vice president, Sister Mosquito?"
"I’m free anyway, and I can help you sell products!"
Lu
Mosquito rolled her eyes and immediately clapped her hands. "I can’t let the profits go to the pockets of outsiders. Let me do it this way: Whoever is interested in joining me can go to Huzi and register, and let’s work together to open this branch. When Xiaoyao’s authorization letter arrives, let’s show our different abilities, and each sale has a commission."
"Me, count me in."
"I also want to join you, and count me in."
"Me, Brother Huzi, count me in."
"Also count me in."
"Damn, don’t you need to take care of your family business? How can I count you in?"
"Hey, managing our family business doesn’t affect me earning any pocket money! I’ll easily get commissions if I sell goods. Where can I find such a good job?"
"That’s true. It doesn’t take much time to make a few phone calls."
"Well, in that case, also count me in."
…
These people usually played together, but it was the first time they had worked together. Every one of them was in high spirits and shouted that they wanted to join the branch.
In an instant, the 113 Childe who were present all "boarded the ship" and became employees of the Yan Jing branch of the Zuihongyan Cosmetics Company.
No trace of the company could be seen now, but it had gotten enough employees and 580 orders. This was unprecedented in history.
Of course, they did have this ability. With their family backgrounds as support, they could set up a company very soon.
Hearing the prices, Ding Ning was shocked inwardly. "The so-called supreme version is a quick-effect, concentrated cosmetics. The raw materials used are relatively expensive, but the total amount of the cost price and labor cost is only about 20,000, but the selling price is 88,000; as for the ordinary version, it has the same effect as the supreme version. The difference is that this one will take effect in a slightly longer time, but it is much more effective than similar products in the market. The cost price is only a few hundred, but one set of it sells 8,800. Clearly, Xiaoyao is going to take the high-end luxury path!"
But he was absolutely sure that the product could be sold. First, the product had a remarkable effect and guaranteed quality; second, Xiaoyao’s human relationships guaranteed that no matter how expensive it was, it could be sold. For these people, hundreds of thousands of Shenzhou currency was only a very small sum.
In particular, the wealthier people are, the more they like to compare with each other. They treat their reputation more important than anything, and they may say, "What you use is the supreme version, so how can I use the ordinary version without feeling ashamed?"
Just now, these people all chose the supreme version without hesitation and directly placed 580 orders. This showed their way of thinking.
"Xiaoyao’s Zuihongyan has not officially opened yet, but let its business began in Yan Jing first!"
As for the price and commission that Mosquitoes got, that was not what he needed to care about.
Xiaoyao, who had a clear relationship between public and private affairs, would not do a money-losing business no matter how good her relationship with Mosquito was. Surely, the profit she left for Mosquito was still considerable.
Wei Biaobiao smacked his lips. "This is my sister’s business. It is unsuitable for me not to support her!" Just when he was about to register, Xiaoyao called him.
"Brother, I’m not the major shareholder of Zuihongyan, and I only hold 10% of the shares. You don’t have to join the Yan Jing branch and get shares, and I’ve reserved 5% of the shares for you."
When he heard his sister’s words, Wei Biao was so moved that he wanted to cry. His eyes had turned red, and his lips moved for a long time, but he could not utter a word.
He could foresee the promising future of Zuihongyan. "My sister has given me a great gift!"
To tell the truth, Childe Wei, who was one of the Eight Childes in Yan Jing, looked shining, but he knew his pain.
He didn’t have the right to inherit the properties of the Wei Family, which he had known since he was young, but he had never complained about it. Instead, he only thought about making a name for himself.
With a bold and forthright personality, he liked to make friends with people from all corners of the world, but making friends also meant that he would have lots of expenses. In fact, he didn’t have much money on most occasions and only had to hang around with others with the reputation of being the Wei Family’s son. Occasionally, he would find some profitable projects, but since he had no money to do investments with, he could only sit and watch.
This was also the reason why he could not concentrate on practicing martial arts and could only making a living in the turbid world. Unfortunately, he could not even tell this misery to his master Luo Zhicheng, so that the latter was angry that he did not have achievements and always complained that his will of martial arts was not firm.
But all this was changed at the moment by a seemingly inadvertent phone call from his sister. How could he not be moved? "I don’t love my sister in vain!"
Taking a deep breath, Wei Biaobiao, who suppressed the mood with ups and downs, stood up and walked to a remote place. "Xiaoyao, I…"
"Well, you’re my brother, so don’t treat me with empty courtesy! By the way, Ding Ning is in Yan Jing. You should take good care of him because he is the biggest shareholder in our company."
Xiaoyao spoke with a smile. How could she not know the pain of her brother? But she had no solution. After all, the Wei Family’s financial power had not yet been handed to her.
Now, when she had her career, the first one that came to her mind was this half-brother. In rich or aristocratic families, this was extremely rare.
"Okay, let me end my empty courtesy. My condition is really a bit miserable now, but you should pay attention to your health. When I have free time, I will go and see you."
Wei Biaobiao looked up at the night sky, took his tears back to his eyes, and said with a smile, "As for Ding Ning, you don’t need to worry. Now, he lives much better than me. Do you want him to answer the phone?"
"No, you should take care of yourself. I don’t have time to go back recently. I estimate that I can’t go home until the Spring Festival. Please send my greetings to our grandpa and parents."
Xiaoyao hung up the phone and sat in her messy apartment, having a kind of spontaneous loneliness.
Although there were many rooms in her maternal grandfather’s family, she did not want to disturb them, so she went to look for a living place for a whole day, rented this suite with three bedrooms and one hall, and moved in.
She never thought that she would fall out with Xiao Nuo. This made her feel a little guilty and sad, but she didn’t regret it in the slightest. Her love was like a moth rushing to the fire. Even if she turned into ashes, she would not regret it.
"Tock, tock, tock!"
There was a sudden knock on the door, and Xiaoyao stood up listlessly to open it. "The landlord is so forgetful! The landlord has come back twice to get things since I got the suite."
"Again, what’s… Ah, Sister Nuo, why are you here?"
The door was opened, but before she could finish her impatient words, Xiaoyao saw Xiao Nuo, who was standing at the door with a frosty face. Then, her expression became extremely unnatural.
She didn’t sleep all night last night, and she didn’t know how to face Xiao Nuo. Before dawn in the morning, she packed up her luggage and moved out, but she did not expect Xiao Nuo to come to her door now.
She was upset, not knowing if Xiao Nuo would say anything unpleasant again to seriously embarrass her.
