Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 91 An Unexpected Joy! Heading to Wencheng!

When Chen Yan and his friends arrived at the classroom, it was packed with people.

In university life, skipping classes is commonplace, but almost no one would choose to skip the last few classes.

Because the last few classes were all about the knowledge points that would be on the final exam.

Top students don't have the habit of skipping classes, while struggling students, in order to avoid failing exams, spontaneously and actively take notes on the key points the teacher emphasizes during final exams.

At times like these, teachers are less likely to take attendance, because past teaching experience tells them that everyone will definitely be present for the last class of the semester.

Unless someone really doesn't want to get better...

However, among those who can get into top-tier universities like science and engineering colleges, there won't be any particularly bad students.

Class 4 of the Economics and Management Department had two classes in the morning. It wasn't until the lunch break bell rang that Chen Yan and her roommates headed towards the door.

On the other side, when Hu Zhanyi saw Chen Yan get up to leave, he quickly said to his roommates Wang Zhen and Yu Yang, "Come on, come on, I'll take you to the cafeteria so we can have lunch together."

Wang Zhen and Yu Yang were slightly surprised, because Hu Zhanyi usually cherished his car very much and was reluctant to let his roommates ride in it.

However, they didn't think much of it. It would take at least 10 minutes to walk from the teaching building to the cafeteria, and they certainly wouldn't refuse a ride on such a cold day.

A large group of students emerged from the teaching building, walking in twos and threes, heading either to their dormitories or to the cafeteria.

Hu Zhanyi walked to the car before Chen Yan, unlocked the vehicle, and then sat down in what he thought was a very cool pose.

Then he quickly pressed the start switch, put it in Park, and slammed on the gas pedal.

"Hoo hoo hoo"

The BMW 320's 2.0T engine, when revved to high speeds, emitted a deep, muffled roar.

But... this sound is completely different from the powerful roar of a sports car.

It was like a boy with a thin voice trying to shout, but his voice cracked the moment he exerted himself, leaving only a few sharp and short "whoosh" sounds, which sounded particularly weak in the empty parking lot.

Chen Yan was immediately stunned.

He really didn't expect this guy's pretentious skills to be so...laughable.

So you're treating a regular family sedan like a sports car, huh?

However, the people around were still attracted by the sudden noise.

"Wow, driving a BMW in college, what a rich kid."

"This car must cost 30 yuan. I might not be able to save up 30 yuan even if I worked for 10 years."

Of course, there were also some people in the crowd who disapproved of this kind of pretentious behavior.

"This guy is such a show-off, what the hell are you doing stepping on the gas when you're driving a 320?"

"So what if you drive to school? You're being childish by deliberately revving the engine."

……

At this moment, the students of Class 4 of Economics and Management also noticed the white 3 Series in the parking lot.

"Hey, isn't that Hu Zhanyi's car?"

"That's true. He drives to class every day, and I even remember his license plate number."

"It's so nice to be rich at home, unlike us, who have to ride bicycles back to the dorm."

Wang Zhen and Yu Yang felt a little smug as they listened to the chatter of their classmates, because they were about to ride in a BMW.

That's how college students are; even if the car isn't their own, sitting in a BMW in front of everyone still gives them a strange sense of superiority.

As many people often say: "A friend of mine just bought a XXX."

Although the car wasn't his, it seemed that having connections with such wealthy friends made them look good.

After Wang Zhen and Yu Yang got into the car, Hu Zhanyi didn't drive away immediately, as if he was waiting for someone.

At this moment, Chen Yan and his roommates from room 303 had already walked to the black Volkswagen.

The BMW and the black Volkswagen were parked very close together, one after the other, so Chen Yan's getting into the car was naturally seen by some of the students from Class 4 of Economics and Management who hadn't gone far yet.

"Huh, why did Chen Yan change cars?"

Didn't he buy an E300?

"Who knows? Maybe that car wasn't his; maybe someone else drove another car."

"Drip drip!"

At that moment, a car horn blared.

Hu Zhanyi deliberately honked the horn and rolled down the window, saying, "Chen Yan, we'll go first. You have to drive slowly. Your car isn't as mechanically sound as a BMW. It would be troublesome if you caused a traffic accident on campus."

Ever since Hu Zhanyi thought Chen Yan was a "packaging guy," he started calling him "Chen Yan" instead of "Brother Chen."

"Fuck you, what's so great about a beat-up 3 Series?" Zhang Feifan, sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't stand it anymore and rolled down the window to curse.

Hu Zhanyi wasn't angry at being scolded. He just smiled and waved to Chen Yan before stepping on the gas and driving away.

"Damn, this is so stupid!" Zhang Feifan cursed.

Li Wenxin also felt offended and couldn't help but complain: "This is really speechless. If Hangzhou weren't so far from my hometown, I would definitely drive my Maybach over here to show him what it's like."

Chen Yan, on the other hand, remained calm and said indifferently, "Never mind him, let's go to the cafeteria for a meal first."

Chen Yan, having lived two lives, frankly said that someone like Hu Zhanyi, a nobody, wasn't even worthy of his attention.

How could he possibly be influenced by the few words of such a nobody?

Besides, once Daily Tech completes its Series A funding, his net worth will skyrocket, and at that point, he and his classmates will probably be from completely different worlds.

Aside from a few roommates in room 303, I'm afraid we won't see each other much in the future.

After lunch, the four students from room 303 returned to their dormitory for a nap.

At that moment, Chen Yan unexpectedly received a call from Wang Tie.

"Boss, a big client has come knocking on our door!"

Wang Tie's voice was still trembling with excitement.

"Oh? What's going on?"

"This morning, a leather shoe factory contacted us, saying that they had recently received a large foreign trade order and needed to rush out a batch of goods within a month. They were short-handed and needed a group of part-time workers. She found us through a referral."

How many part-time jobs does she need?

"Around 500 people, for a period of one month."

"Hmm, so what problem are we encountering now?"

Generally speaking, if Wang Tie has already signed the deal, his first words should be, "Boss, I have some good news to tell you!"

Or, "Boss, I just closed a big deal!"

However, he didn't say that, and his tone was excited, not thrilled.

Therefore, Chen Yan deduced that there must have been some problems that he couldn't solve.

as predicted.

Wang Tie replied, "Their quoted price is too low."

"How many?"

"The average daily wage is 120."

"Okay, I understand. I'm coming to Wencheng now. You can talk to her when I get there."

……

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan bought a high-speed rail ticket from Hangzhou to Wenzhou and then took a taxi directly to the high-speed rail station.

The price of 120 isn't unacceptable. As long as the daily wage for part-time workers is kept at 100 yuan, each person can still earn 20 yuan. With 500 people, the daily gross profit would be 10,000 yuan, and over a month, this order could contribute 300,000 yuan in gross profit to the company.

But... Chen Yan was not satisfied.

In reality, such high-quality customers are not short of money.

"People don't buy your products not because they don't have money or think they're too expensive, but because you haven't addressed what's compelling to them!"

3: p.m.

Chen Yan appeared at Wencheng High-speed Railway Station.

Wang Tie and Zhou Yi were already waiting at the exit.

When Wang Tie saw the big boss come out, he was about to run up to greet him, but Zhou Yi was already one step ahead and cleverly took the bag from Chen Yan's hand.

"Pah, all you do is spout this nonsense. In ancient times, you'd be a treacherous minister."

Wang Tie cursed under his breath, then smiled and stepped forward.

After the three got into the Mercedes-Benz E300, Wang Tie drove, Zhou Yi sat in the passenger seat, and Chen Yan sat in the back seat as the boss.

The elevated highway in Wenzhou is very high, a full 19 meters above the ground. Driving on it, a Mercedes-Benz looks like a silver wing floating in the sky, moving gracefully and calmly.

Inside the car, Chen Yan first asked Zhou Yi about the registration status of the Didi mission.

"Zhou Yi, how many people have signed up for Didi now?"

"Boss, there are currently 1013 people registered in the backend. We've completed the task one day ahead of schedule!"

As he spoke, Zhou Yi straightened his body unconsciously, his shoulders slightly shrunk back, and every word seemed to burst forth from the depths of his chest, carrying a strong sense of confidence.

"Good, well done!"

Chen Yan first praised them, then reminded them, "However, it would be good if half of these 1000 people could make it to the end. In any case, don't slack off, continue to recruit people to fill the remaining vacancies."

"Okay, boss."

It was already past 4 p.m. when we arrived at the Wenzhou office of Daily Technology.

If we go to that shoe factory to discuss cooperation at this time, it will already be dark by the time we get there.

Chen Yan decided to stay in Wencheng for one night and talk to them the next morning.

After having dinner with Wang Tie and Zhou Yi, Chen Yan found a hotel nearby to stay in.

At 8 p.m., Jiang Zhixin sent a message.

Jiang Yue Zhao Zhixin: Why haven't you come yet today?
Chen Yingjun: Something came up at the company, I'm still in Wenzhou right now.

Jiang Yue Zhao Zhixin: Okay…

Jiang Yue Zhao Zhixin: When are you coming back? Don't forget that final exams start on Friday.

Chen Yingjun: If you miss me, I can come back right now, even tonight.

Jiang Yue Zhao Zhixin: ...

Jiang Yue Zhao Zhixin: Forget it, I can't be bothered with you. Reply if you want, don't reply if you don't.

The next morning at nine o'clock, Chen Yan and Wang Tie set off together for the shoe factory.

Zhou Yi was busy arranging for the 1000 part-time workers to go to the Didi branch for pre-employment training, so he didn't go with Chen Yan and the others.

Half an hour later, the Mercedes stopped in front of a leather shoe factory in Lucheng.

Since Wang Tie and Zhou Yi had been here yesterday, the security guard did not stop them when he saw Wang Tie in the driver's seat and simply raised the fence.

After parking the car, Wang Tie turned to Chen Yan in the back seat and said, "Boss, President Xu is already waiting for us in his office."

"Well, let's go."

Soon, Chen Yan followed Wang Tie to General Manager Xu's office.

The office door was open, and at a glance, it was more than 100 square meters in size.

Facing the door is a floor-to-ceiling window, letting in plenty of sunlight and bathing the entire space in warmth. A long, solid wood conference table sits on one side of the room, seating more than ten people, with neatly arranged documents and an elegant crystal ashtray on it.

At this moment, behind a large executive desk in the center of the room sat a middle-aged woman dressed in a dark gray fitted suit.

It was Xu Suya, the owner of this shoe factory.

Xu Suya looks to be around 40 years old. She has a neat shoulder-length bob, dyed a low-key yet elegant dark chestnut color, with the ends slightly curled inwards, making her look very refined.

Her face was well-maintained; although there were some barely noticeable crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, it did not detract from the beauty of her face at all, but instead made her look even more charming.

"Dong dong dong."

Wang Tie knocked on the heavy solid wood door and said politely, "Mr. Xu, I'm sorry to bother you."

Xu Suya looked up at the sound and then walked over gracefully in a pair of black pointed-toe stilettos.

"And who is this?" Xu Suya asked Chen Yan.

"This is our big boss, Mr. Chen Yan, from [Daily Part-Time Jobs]."

Upon hearing Wang Tie's introduction, a hint of surprise flashed in Xu Suya's eyes.

This big boss is so young! He looks like he's only around 20 years old.

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

Chen Yan reached out his hand at the opportune moment.

"Hello." Xu Suya said, extending her hand to shake hands politely with Chen Yan.

Xu Suya's hands are very well-maintained; they are fair, smooth, and plump, without any calluses.

A woman like that is definitely not the founder of the factory; she either found a good husband or has a good father.

However, Chen Yan leaned more towards the latter, because her eyes revealed an undeniable decisiveness and confidence, clearly indicating that she was the actual controller of the factory.

If the factory belongs to her husband, then the final decision-making power should be in his hands.

Normally, only when a father passes the mantle to his daughter will he hand over full control to her.

"If he's a rich kid, then negotiating the price will be much easier."

"Please take a seat, both of you."

Xu Suya walked to the sofa and gestured for Chen Yan and the other person to sit down.

"How did Mr. Xu find out about our software?"

After Chen Yan sat down, he casually started a conversation.

"Oh, my daughter told me that."

Xu Suya sat down opposite Chen Yan and said with a smile, "She knows we're short-staffed lately, so she told me to check out [Daily Jobs]. She said her classmate is helping your app recruit new users every day on her WeChat Moments."

"Oh, I see."

Chen Yan nodded, then continued to inquire, "Mr. Xu, when is the delivery date for this export order?"

"The 11th of next month."

"There's not much time left. Counting today, there are only 40 days left."

"Yes. The existing workers in the factory are simply not enough to handle the workload, so I wanted to ask Mr. Chen for help in recruiting a group of part-time workers."

Xu Suya paused for a moment, then continued, "To be honest, although this order is large, the profit margin is actually very thin, so our budget for finding part-time workers won't be very high. My expectation is a daily wage of 120 yuan."
