Star Tycoon

Chapter 51: Time Spent on Career

In the afternoon, Tian Ersan continued working. He knew very well that his main job was live streaming, not manual labor.

Working is just for show; it's about proving that you're a down-to-earth person.

A person who could make a living based on their talent and good looks, but insists on doing manual labor.

Tian Ersan first did half an hour of physical labor.

After sweating profusely, he finally sat down at his computer desk to drink some water.

We drink water from a bowl, not a teacup or tea mug.

The water is cooled boiled water, just plain hot water, without any salt or sugar added.

[Host, you can add some salt and sugar to your water; this will help restore your lost energy.]

Tian Ersan smiled and said, "Drink whatever you have. Drinking water is not as effective as eating. Just eat a proper meal after you finish your work."

"Thank you all for your support. We've accumulated a lot of orders. Once we finish shipping these items at my doorstep, we'll move on to other locations."

The online store's backend has already displayed all orders up to now.

The number of viewers in the live stream reached over two thousand, but today's orders have already accumulated to over ten thousand.

On one hand, there are customers in the live broadcast room these past two days, and on the other hand, due to the booming business, customers on shopping websites have noticed this store.

At that time, there were very few shops with monthly sales of over one million yuan. Tian Ersan's shop quickly rose to the top with its rapidly increasing sales and positive reviews, gaining more attention.

Winner takes all!

Whether he can become the top streamer and earn millions a month depends on these next few days.

We must capitalize on this current popularity and quickly build up a larger following.

Tian Ersan rested for a few minutes, then took a sip of water before continuing to work.

In one afternoon, Tian Ersan received several hundred yuan in tips, and the number of orders for his shop increased to ten thousand.

After finishing his live-streamed meal, Tian Ersan wiped the sweat from his face and ended the live stream.

My stomach feels bloated because of the effects of the mukbang show.

Zhou Shanshan walked over, her face full of joy and excitement.

"We received over 10,000 orders today, which should earn us at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan!"

Tian Ersan sat in the chair, unwilling to move, but a smile appeared on his face.

"This is what I earned through my sweat and labor."

Zhou Shanshan laughed and said, "Show-off! Didn't everyone work today? Give me the money, I'll go buy watermelons! And lots of soda!"

Tian Ersan patted his belly and said, "You're right. Anyone can work hard. The fact that I made so much money today is partly due to luck. If I had missed it, I would have missed it."

"If I miss this opportunity, I won't get another chance, so I have to make the most of it."

Tian Ersan patted his pockets and looked outside at the large group of temporary workers who were preparing to finish work.

"I still need to pay wages later, and I don't have much cash left. Let me have some peace and quiet for a while."

Tian Ersan didn't want to move; he just wanted some peace and quiet.

Zhou Shanshan smiled and placed her hands on Tian Ersan's shoulders. "Boss~ Brother Tian~ Give me some money to buy some soda, okay? It's so hot! I've finished all the soda in the freezer, I'll get more tomorrow!"

The coquettishness of an eighteen-year-old girl is really annoying to Tian Ersan.

"No money!"

Tian Ersan's response made Zhou Shanshan very uncomfortable.

Zhou Shanshan pouted, "We've made so much money these past few days, how could we be broke? You just don't want to spend it."

Tian Ersan said sadly, "The money hasn't arrived yet. The money that has arrived has already been used to pay wages to people outside, and there's also the rent for today's place and the payment to the cannery!"

"I've worked myself to the bone all day, and I finally managed to sit down and rest, and you keep babbling on and on. If you feel wronged here, go home! I don't need anyone here! Get out!"

Everyone inside and outside the house remained silent, and Zhou Shanshan's classmates continued working outside, as if they knew nothing about what was happening inside.

Zhou Shanshan bought soda not just for herself, but for everyone else as well.

Unfortunately, after she was scolded, no one spoke up for her.

Tian Ersan felt annoyed and angry, thinking that he had been very patient and had finally lost his temper.

Zhou Shanshan also felt wronged and stood there wanting to cry.

Tian Ersan frowned as he looked at her. "Go back upstairs! Sister Ya, take her upstairs!"

Zhang Shuya was tidying up her things in the yard when she heard this. She came over, pulled the aggrieved Zhou Shanshan back inside, and made her cry.

If it weren't for the fact that it was getting dark and they were worried about something happening, Tian Ersan would have sent her home long ago.

But the more you care about this kind of person, the more you consider her feelings, the more you fear she might do something foolish, and the more you suppress your own feelings and treat her gently, the deeper the harm you will suffer.

Many people are indecisive, feeling both touched by the fact that their efforts are not being rewarded and foolishly considering everything for her, fearing that something unexpected might happen.

You won't wake up until you see the harm done to yourself as harm.

Tian Ersan touched his stomach, still feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

It's so hard to find a woman who is emotionally stable, has some brains, and knows how to care for others.

She shouldn't have such thoughts. She should leave as soon as possible, preferably to her boyfriend's house or to get married elsewhere instead of getting in the way.

If you don't help Zhang Shuya and Wang Linlin because of your lower body impulses, and you don't help Zhou Shanshan when her mother beats her, what impact will it have on you?
First of all, Zhou Shanshan is definitely useless; it makes no difference whether she's there or not.

Zhang Shuya and Wang Linlin can cook, wash feet, sleep with you, help you get loans, and even help you scam rich men out of money.

They also handle after-sales customer service for express delivery companies.

These two people were indeed useful, but without them, my life would actually be much easier.

Neither the loan nor the money from the rich guy is necessary; it seems that money isn't very useful right now. It would have been faster to borrow money from the female streamer from the start, relying on one's looks. In short, all three women have been negative influences.

To solve the problems they caused, I spent a lot of money and wasted a great deal of time.

Time is of the essence at this stage.

There was no time to deal with Li Biao and the others, nor was there time to resolve the issues of teenagers like Zhou Shanshan.

She's already eighteen, yet still so immature. No wonder the marriage age is so high these days.

Tian Ersan stood up and went outside.

"We'll calculate your wages tomorrow morning, and I'll go to the bank to withdraw the money for you first thing tomorrow morning."

When everyone heard that it would only take a day, and seeing that Tian Ersan had just finished venting his anger, no one said anything.

It's normal to be paid a day late; it's common for people in small counties to delay or not pay wages at all.

It's already very generous to release one per day.

Han Nannan packed her things and walked over to Tian Ersan, who was only wearing shorts.

"Brother Tian, ​​do you need any more people here? Wang Yue and Li Na are at home with nothing to do, so they asked me to ask if you need anyone."

Tian Ersan remembered several female students he had met when he collected school uniforms before, and readily said, "Yes! Come and work for a day tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow we'll go work at the courier station."

Han Nannan nodded happily, "How many people do you need? My sister and my mom are free at home, so they can come and help with the work!"

Tian Ersan smiled and said, "Come on over, we're short-handed for the next couple of days."

Zhou Shanshan is Zhou Shanshan, and the rest of the people are the rest of the people.

I only dislike people who get in the way and act stupidly, not people who discriminate against women.

Packing is something that women and mothers-in-law can do, but typing for customer service requires female students.

In small counties, you don't need social insurance or housing fund, and you don't need to sign any contracts. You can work for a few days and then leave at any time.

Sixty yuan a day. If there's work, we'll do it; if there isn't, we'll tell people not to come.

Tian Ersan wasn't angry at all. He wouldn't hold back his temper just because a woman was in his way, nor would he get so angry that he cried, shouted, threw things, and blamed the woman.

After the food in his stomach had been digested a little, Tian Ersan forgot about Zhou Shanshan and didn't care at all about how the wronged woman was doing.

"Family! Time to play games!" Tian Ersan happily streamed himself playing games, no longer mentioning the canned food.

Live-streaming the sale of canned goods has led many viewers to find ways to bypass platform tipping.

The platform hasn't encountered this kind of situation before and can't react in time. Most fans in the live stream won't listen to the streamer's words and buy things to exchange for money, or even unfollow and ignore this troublesome streamer.

Tian Ersan's move this time is groundbreaking. There have been live-streaming sales before, but none have been this outrageous.

Livestreaming e-commerce has always been a normal practice and is permitted by the platform.

Tian Ersan went too far this time. By playing the victim, he made fans choose to buy canned food as a reward instead of giving rewards directly in the live stream, thus allowing the platform to take a cut.

Once the platform realizes what's happening, they will shut down the live stream!
Tian Ersan doesn't think the platform can remain naive forever.

Now we need to reduce the hype ourselves and stabilize this wave of attention.

I'll first act as a law-abiding citizen for a while, then engage in PK battles with female streamers to resume what a normal streamer should do. At the same time, I'll register accounts on other platforms and websites to reserve territory.

Currently, I don't have enough popularity, so I need to stabilize for a while before I can take a large number of fans with me when I switch jobs.

Whether it was the county government's reaction or the live-streaming platform's reaction, it was because Tian Ersan deliberately suppressed the heat and went to great lengths to cover up the matter, preventing it from escalating.

Continuously consider the right countermeasures to prevent the situation from escalating.

The hype surrounding canned goods will gradually subside in the next few days. With only a few hundred thousand followers, most people who wanted to buy canned goods have already done so.

People will repurchase in the future, but a single product is definitely not enough.

The sunflower seed business is struggling because there's no stable supply, and now isn't the right time for sunflower seeds to hit the market; most of what's available are secondhand stock.

Tian Ersan couldn't get the goods, and the melon seeds weren't profitable, so he decided to give up on that for the time being.

"We sold over 100,000 canned goods this month. Although sales will drop tomorrow and the day after, we'll still be around 1,000 orders."

With 100,000 orders, and each order earning eight yuan, that's over 800,000 yuan this month.

If you average over 800,000, that's over 20,000 to 30,000 a day.

In this day and age, this is already the level of a top-tier live streamer.

Tian Ersan was not satisfied with these things.

Earning 800,000 this month doesn't guarantee you'll earn it next month.

The next step must be decided as soon as possible, and specific tracks must be quickly established so that we can get on the right track faster.

"Without trending topics, it's basically impossible for it to reach tens of thousands again."

"The other snacks are all very popular, and some livestreamers may have already started selling canned goods. We need to open up new channels as soon as possible."

"I can't do mukbang, it's too bad for my body. I can be a fitness streamer or do some talent shows."

While live streaming, he was thinking about things, planning for the future, and avoiding troubles and dangers.

After the broadcast ended, Tian Ersan was so tired that he lay down to sleep exhausted.

In Zhou Shanshan's eyes, Tian Ersan was indifferent to her. After closing his shop and not doing business, he would not take a shower, sleep, or play on his phone. Instead, he would watch female anchors dancing on his computer and flirt with them.

After the broadcast, he would simply wipe himself down, then fall asleep without paying any attention to anyone or offering a single word of comfort.

Tian Ersan cherished this hard-won success with utmost care, doing his best to grasp this hope, and living each day as if walking on thin ice.

Like the male villains in many novels who stop at nothing to succeed and ignore women's feelings.

But women can betray you, while careers can't.

Even in erotic novels, he should be the one earning this money!
