Rebirth 2010, the best

Chapter 224 It feels good

Wednesday, February 5nd.

10: am.

on the plane.

Xu Ruochen watched Lu Yao take a health pill from the small medicine bottle and put it into his mouth, then stretched out his hand.

He took one and put it in his mouth, then swallowed it with water and said:

"I haven't eaten in a while."

"Why don't you eat?"

“Too nutritious.”

Hearing this, Lu Yao was moved and asked:

"What's in this? I feel hot all over after eating it."

"Well, I just know that the main ingredients are ginseng and deer's heart blood. I don't know anything else."

"Ginseng?"

"Yes. And they are all wild ginseng, not cultivated ones. For this stuff, Run Ge and his team hired a lot of mountain walkers in Changbai Mountain. They also rented two hilltops to raise these semi-wild deer."

As he spoke, Master Xu's eyes were filled with emotion:
“It’s very nutritious.”

"… Deer antler is the most nutritious, right?"

"Look at you, you are ignorant, aren't you? Go to the Northeast and ask. Although deer antlers are very valuable, in fact, from the perspective of replenishing losses and increasing gains, the little bit of blood from the deer's heart is the most replenishing. For each deer, you can only have a small cup at most... and it must be hot. In winter, when the deer is the fattest, kill it, take out the heart while it is still steaming, cut it with a knife, and collect the blood..."

"I don't think what you said is quite right. From a biological point of view, the heart provides power for blood circulation throughout the body. Isn't the blood in the heart also the blood of the whole body circulating to the heart? So... is it different from deer blood?"

“…You use a scientific approach to Chinese medicine?”

"..."

Lu Yao was speechless, thought for a while, and asked:
"Does this mean I can't drink alcohol after eating this?"

"Yes, why not."

Mr. Xu looked like he had no idea.

"This stuff is best taken with wine. How do you say... dissolve it? It seems that the saying is that wine can dissolve its medicinal properties and make it better absorbed."

"..."

have to.

Lu Yao thought he had finally found the password.

It turned out to be the case.

"But you can't eat too much of this, right?"

"Of course. This thing is very nutritious, one is the limit. You dare to try two..."

"Two won't work, how about three?"

"..."

Master Xu looked amazed.

Marvel at my friend’s brain circuits:
"You really are not afraid of death. You can't even take two, and you want three..."

"What will happen if I eat three?"

"I don't know. I haven't tried it. But Run Ge said you shouldn't eat too much of this stuff. It's too nutritious."

"..."

Lu Yao deeply agreed with this.

indeed.

It’s very nutritious.

It's been two days since I started taking the supplements, and I feel like the effect of the medicine hasn't taken effect yet.

When he woke up this morning, there was no one around him.

Since last night, the two of them have not communicated at all, because after three times, the other fell asleep.

I was so tired that I couldn't even open my eyelids.

You know what, it's quite amazing.

Don’t talk about the past, don’t talk about the future, don’t talk about you and me.

Don't talk about anything.

After the first time, we had something to eat together.

We chatted for a while about the afternoon recording while eating, then took a shower together and continued...

This little slave of mine... you know what, it looks like he's made of water.

It's a completely different taste.

He sat up straighter, glanced at the dazzling clouds outside the window, pulled down the sunshade and began to stare blankly.

"What are you thinking about?"

Mr. Xu was probably bored, so he was chatting with him right now.

“Thinking about the lyrics.”

"Oh yeah, did you figure it out?"

"It's finally out..."

As he spoke, he took out a notepad and handed it to him.

Master Xu opened it, looked at the lines of English, and asked in surprise:
"You plan to use it all in English?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"It's okay... Well, let me take a look..."

He started translating the lyrics in his mind by referring to the lyrics in Lu Yao's notebook.

English, whether for him or for Wei Qianqian and others, actually does not pose any pressure.

The difference between everyone is actually the spoken pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary and so on... It’s really nothing for students from 985 and 211 universities.

After looking for a while, he nodded:
"It's OK, the lyrics are pretty good. But the English lyrics are still too straightforward, and I feel they are not as artistic as the Chinese ones. When are you going to start composing the music?"

"Let's talk about it when we get back. There's no rush."

"Hmm...Have you thought of a name for this song?"

“It’s called ‘DEMONS’.”

"Devil?"

"Ah."

"It's okay, it's quite fitting. Everyone has their own demons."

Lu Yao glanced at him and sneered:
"What? You have it too?"

"Yes. Sometimes I want to destroy the world..."

"What happened to you, world?"

"I do not know."

"……Neuropathy."

"How is this crazy? Everyone has their own dark side. Don't you have one too?"

"I don't, thank you."

"Get out of here, you."

Master Xu sneered:
"Everyone has it. Don't act like you're a saint. I tell you, the more saintly you are, the crazier you are inside. This is normal. The key is whether you can control it. Calm your mind and restrain yourself. This is the kingly way. Selfish desires should not lose the integrity, and careful scrutiny will not lead to mistakes. Allow it and be honest."

"……Yo?"

Lu Yao was surprised and asked:

"From what book did you read this?"

"What the hell, this is a family motto. It's been passed down from generation to generation in my family."

"real or fake?"

"Really, it's a very thick book. I thought it was so boring when I was memorizing it before... You know what, when I grew up, I felt that every sentence was the truth. For example, the sentences I told you, in fact, they are the same meaning over and over again. Everyone has selfish desires. First of all, you have to restrain them, but you can't restrain them blindly. If you restrain them for a long time, they will become more and more inflated, just like a bomb. If it really explodes, it will kill itself. Therefore, you must allow your own selfish desires without losing your integrity. Just like me, I am not a saint, but at least I am not a jerk, right?"

"..."

Lu Yao looked at him deeply.

Suddenly nodded:
"understood."

Mr. Xu smiled proudly:
"Have you learned your lesson?"

Lu Yao sincerely said:

"Well, I've learned a lot."

As he spoke, he suddenly said:
"I will be a scumbag in the future. When I scumbag others, I will take this as my creed... Of course, if I am caught, I will say that you taught me that."

"What the hell..."

The corners of Master Xu's mouth twitched.

"I taught you to control yourself. Who taught you to blame others?"

"intrinsic."

"6."

His face was full of admiration.

Lu Yao smiled and shrugged, and fell into deep thought again...

Of course he understood what Mr. Xu said, and it made sense when applied to himself.

But... at the end of the day, some things are just not right.

These words are just to make you feel better.

……

After the plane landed, everyone rushed to school without any prior arrangement.

The same is true for Lu Yao.

By the time everyone arrived at school, it was exactly noon.

From a distance, Xu Ruochen saw a table at the entrance of the dormitory building.

"Isn't that Old Yu?"

As he spoke, Lu Yao squinted his eyes and saw that it was true.

When a few people walked in, Lu Yao saw the recruitment advertisement hanging next to Yu Kun:
"We're hiring deliverymen! This is the most ideal part-time job, no doubt about it. Earning 5,000 a month is not a dream!"

You know what... when "part-time job" and "monthly income of 5,000" are equated, the attraction suddenly increases.

Lu Yao and Xu Ruochen didn't say anything, just looked at Yu Kun who was surrounded by several people.

"Yes, we deliver food. It's near our school, not too far."

"The fee is based on distance. If the delivery is farther away, the delivery fee will be higher. Currently, the lowest delivery fee for each order is five yuan."

"Do you really think it's too little, senior? Think about it, one order is five dollars, but if you receive three or four orders at the same time, one trip is twenty. And if you can deliver forty or fifty orders a day, that's two hundred. How much is it a month?"

"Of course this is the most ideal situation, but if you work part-time, the income will not be less. The most important thing is that it does not take up any of your time."

"If you want to do it, just go online in the software and an order will be assigned to you. If you don't want to do it, just go offline."

"Well, the requirement is a real-name ID card. Because we have just started, we need the deliverymen to pay a deposit of 200 yuan. Because we are all cash transactions, a certain degree of trust and security is required. But in the future, when the function is improved, it will not be necessary, and it will be refunded at that time."

"Salaries can be settled on a daily basis. All that is required is that everyone opens their own online banking account, and then the finance department will make the payment."

"We are currently working on a docking database. Once it is completed, users will pay the company and the company will distribute the money in a unified manner."

"Yeah, it's not done yet, so it's cash collection now."

"Understand, this is just the beginning. Other docking procedures are in progress."

"Well, yes... Are you interested? Sure, let's leave your contact information. We are indeed hiring developers now..."

"The office is actually very small and we don't have that much funding, so we are currently working online. Of course, meetings are held in the company."

"Of course, we have a business license and all the necessary paperwork. Everything is complete."

"Me? I'm only a freshman."

"Haha, just a few people messing around..."

Mr. Xu didn't mention it.

He was quite satisfied with Lu Yao alone.

Lao Yu is indeed a talent. Although this business has just started, he has already learned to make promises to everyone during the recruitment stage.

The two listened for a while, and seeing more and more people gathering over there, Lu Yao said to Master Xu:

"Let's go?"

"...Why don't we go and help?" "You go. I'll go and see Lao Liu."

"That's fine, help me carry the luggage up."

"Ah."

So, Xu Ruochen came to Yu Kun, and Lu Yao returned to the dormitory but found that Liu Mingze was not in the room.

He made a phone call and found out... He was in the company and was busy as hell.

Lu Yao asked him to spare five minutes to chat.

During the chat, we learned that "Ele.me" has set up the server and is officially online.

Currently, Fuhua has more than 50 deliverymen, and is connected to a total of 42 surrounding restaurants, stalls, small supermarkets, etc., including the canteen.

It has been in trial operation for two days.

The day before yesterday was the first day, but the number of orders was only 7. But on the second day, the number of orders exceeded 50.

As of the time Lu Yao called today, there were already 137 orders.

This growth trend can be said to be quite encouraging.

Prove that this path is feasible.

But at the same time...the current problems are also very serious.

In terms of payment, they have to pay merchants on a daily basis, and buyers' coupons must also be credited to their accounts on the same day.

The two hundred thousand has been almost spent on renting a small server, launching the software, purchasing financial computers, etc.

Even if Lu Yao didn't contact him, he would call and ask for money.

What was very worrying for Liu Mingze was not a problem for Lu Yao.

He has more than two million in financing.

So he said:

"Leave it to me. The money will be in your account by the afternoon at the latest."

After hanging up the phone, he fell into deep thought.

From the conversation with Liu Mingze just now, I learned that what the company lacks most at the moment is actually the means of payment.

too difficult.

The delivery man has to make two trips, one to deliver the food and one to collect the money and send it back.

However, Yu Kun "made up a pretext" to turn the two yuan subsidy from the company into a "return subsidy", covering up the fact that the company currently has no effective means of payment.

Pretty smart.

And now... this is the only way.

According to Liu Mingze, they will first conduct a trial operation for half a month, and after all the procedures are understood, they will start to expand into other schools.

Lu Yao estimated that only then would it be time to really burn money.

The local team, the food delivery team, the technical team... the scale will definitely not be small by then.

If all goes well, the company's size could expand dramatically in a short period of time.

At this time, there must be a set of management methods...

Well, this is quite a challenge...

While he was thinking, he turned on the computer.

Eh?
If we follow this process... then once the payment method is available, can't the errand service be launched at the same time?

……

In fact, the most important thing to solve in financing a startup is money.

With money, everything is easy.

Lu Yao felt that his luckiest thing was that he was with two rich women.

Really no shortage of money.

So, when the three brothers Liu, Yu and Xu came back around six o'clock in the evening, Lu Yao felt quite happy when he saw their tired faces.

It's better to be busy.

Being busy means that the business is advancing rapidly.

Moreover, during the chat, everyone found that students had a high level of recognition for this food delivery software.

There are quite a lot of lazy people.

However, there is a shortcoming at present that the boys cannot deliver the food directly to the girls’ dormitory, and some customers are complaining...

Then there's no way.

At present, the company already has more than 70 registered deliverymen who have paid deposits and started to be active.

That's pretty great.

Yu Kun plans to stop recruiting and start recruiting local teams tomorrow to expand the delivery range of takeout food around the school.

Moreover, he specially asked someone to go to Jiaotong University to find out more about it these two days.

The business software of Jiaotong University is limited to the campus and its surroundings, and the business model is still that merchants deliver and collect money by themselves. In terms of progress, they are more than twice as slow.

Everyone felt at ease.

All are happy.

However, Liu and Yu still looked at Lu Yao eagerly:

"Lu Yao, these two hundred thousand still don't seem to be enough, what should we do?"

In the face of Mr. Xu's big rolling eyes, Lu Yao patted his chest:
"No problem, leave it to me. I'll work hard these few days and get us one million first."

Tsk.

Lao Lu has a really evil heart.

he thought to himself.

But he immediately wanted to kill Lu Yao.

"I'm going out to get sponsorship now."

"Good good."

Lu Yao walked out the door while Liu and Yu looked at him as if he were his adoptive father.

Mr. Xu sent a message:

"Where are you going?"

"Looking for your sister."

"You bastard! I'm going to kill you!"

"Don't be funny, I'm serious. I'm going to go find Sister Chu and tell her about the current situation and ask her to prepare some money. How about you come with me?"

"Will you be back tonight?"

"I'm not coming back. I'm going home."

"Forget it, go ahead."

"Ah."

He replied to the last message with a guilty conscience before opening the text message from Xu Ruochu.

At noon, she sent a message:
"Are you back?"

Lu Yao’s reply was:

"Just arrived at school."

"Okay, let's have dinner together tonight?"

"Ah."

Then he sent a message asking:
"Where are you? Where can I find you?"

"I'm at the school gate, the usual place."

Obviously, she had been waiting for a long time.

Lu Yao rode his electric bike all the way to the school gate. In front of the familiar bus stop, he saw a very unfamiliar Audi A6 with its double flashes on.

?

He was stunned.

Sent a message to Xu Ruochu:
"The A6?"

"Yes, come up."

Lu Yao opened the car door directly and saw her in the driver's seat.

She dressed up carefully and greeted me with a smile.

"When did you buy this new... um..."

Before he could finish his words, his mouth was blocked by something soft and fragrant.

At this moment, Lu Yao instinctively glanced at the hood in front of him.

Ok.

Okay.

Clean and tidy.

There was no bottle of iced tea...

"Hey!"

Xu Ruochu was somewhat dissatisfied:
"Why are your eyes darting around?"

“…I thought you were going to put a bottle of iced tea on the hood.”

"What do you mean? Are you thirsty? Should I go get you something to drink?"

As soon as Lu Yao heard this, he understood. Obviously, the rich lady didn't understand these things at all.

So he smiled and shook his head:
"I'm just kidding. But today... I really have something to talk to you about."

"what?"

"We need money... The food delivery business has already started and is gaining momentum. I estimate that the two million will be gone in two or three months at most. You need to find a team to evaluate the financing. We don't understand due diligence reports and other things. You can tell us what the company needs and we can prepare in advance."

"...ha~"

The corners of Xu Ruochu's mouth lifted up, and suddenly he looked like he was smiling.

"So, I am about to become your financial sponsor?"

"..."

Lu Yao's mouth twitched.

"What do you mean? It sounds like you want to control us."

"Don't merge you with the rest of you. It has nothing to do with them."

For some reason, the woman who began to exude the aura of a capitalist began to speak in a tone that became somewhat unfathomable.

She rarely put on a difficult and high attitude in front of her boyfriend:
"Tell me, what can you bring to me?"

Lu Yao was speechless:
"Why are you still being so arrogant?... Never mind, I'll let Brother Xiaochen talk to you."

"It's no use for him to come."

Xu Ruochu smiled even more happily:

"I told you, you have nothing to do with them. Tell me how you want to please me. If you don't make me happy, I won't pay a penny!"

"To be honest, this is also your brother's business. I am at most a military strategist..."

"You're playing dumb, aren't you? You thought I didn't ask Xiaochen? Xiaochen said that all the current processes are based on your judgment of the market. You're the one standing behind the three of them, do you think I don't know?"

"..."

Lu Yao thought to himself, after all, you are siblings.

Xu Ruochen, you were sold by your sister and you still helped count the money.

Looking at the arrogant rich woman... Lu Yao sighed helplessly:
"So...what do you want to do?"

"Doesn't that depend on your performance?"

She suddenly put her hand on Lu Yao's arm.

Give it a gentle pinch.

As his eyes moved, an air of unspoken rules flowed freely.

Don't tell me yet.

Lu Yao nodded secretly.

It has an internal smell.
