Don't get married if you're reborn.

Chapter 341 Shi Jing has been elevated

Doing gold business is certainly dangerous; people from all over the country flock here, and it's a mixed bag.

Upon hearing Mu Qingyang's question, Zeng Wenjie could only smile helplessly.

Old Li can be considered a seasoned veteran, but even the most persistent person can get their shoes wet, so it's not surprising that he fell into the hands of a ruthless person.

Zeng Wenjie felt it was a bit of a pity, as Lao Li was a steady, bold, and meticulous person.

Yang Wei was taken aback when he saw Mu Qingyang, and couldn't help but ask, "And who is this?"

"Girlfriend, come to my house for Chinese New Year." Zeng Wenjie grinned.

Yang Wei thought this was normal. Zeng Wenjie was outstanding now, so his girlfriend couldn't be bad either. It was just a pity that his daughter would probably never have another chance in the future!

Yang Wei said, "Then I'll handle this matter. I don't know if the police can catch those robbers who committed murder and robbery."

Zeng Wenjie said, "I hope there will be a result, which will also give Lao Li's family an explanation."

Yang Wei left with Yang Jingqi, who remained silent and dejected throughout.

"I'm going back first. Don't wander around, and especially don't go to the riverbank alone. I'll come and keep you company when I have time," Zeng Wenjie said to Mu Qingyang.

"Okay!" Mu Qingyang nodded and smiled.

She brought her computer, which has a wireless network card, so she won't be bored even if she stays at home. Plus, she can play Go with her grandfather.

Zeng Wenjie got into the dusty A8 and drove back to Fengzhou.

Black cars are such a hassle; they become unsightly if they get even a little dirty. Gray and white cars are much more resistant to dirt.

But wouldn't it be a waste to buy a white A8?

Driving home alone can be a bit boring, but it's still better than taking the bus, which is just too much trouble.

After getting on the expressway from Niushou City to Fengzhou, Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but think of Zeng Mi's backing again.

The car accident Zeng Mi suffered was most likely caused by the intention to silence her.
But Zeng Wenjie wasn't the kind of compassionate person who would try to save everyone. Besides, the matter was too complicated, and he didn't want to get involved.

After arriving in Fengzhou, Zeng Wenjie called Mu Qingyang and said, "I've arrived. I'm letting you know I'm safe!"

Mu Qingyang said happily, "Remember to bring me a gift when you come back!"

Zeng Wenjie was taken aback. Goodness, they've even learned to ask for gifts.

When Zeng Wenjie arrived at the snack shop, business was not as good as usual, and had dropped significantly. But this was normal, after all, the surrounding schools were on holiday and the students had gone home for winter break.

Any store that opens in a university town will primarily attract naive college students.

Although Zeng Wenjie's frequent appearances in newspapers, interviews, and TV programs have brought publicity to the snack shop and attracted customers, it is only a short-term effect. Once the novelty wears off, people will no longer make a special trip to buy snacks there.

Upon seeing Zeng Wenjie, Fu Qianzhu couldn't help but smile and said, "Boss!"

Hearing her call for help, Ye Qiansheng ran over, his face full of sarcasm, and said, "I heard you got beaten up by an old man yesterday?"

Zeng Wenjie's smile froze. Damn it, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast!
"Don't even mention it. He's a retired master from the Imperial Guard. Even if we were all tied together, we wouldn't be enough for him to handle with one hand," Zeng Wenjie said.

"A master of the Imperial Guard..." Ye Qiansheng gasped upon hearing this.

Shi Jing couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by 'Imperial Palace Master'? I only know about the Grand Eunuch!"

Zeng Wenjie said, "You don't need to know... By the way, Andy Lau hasn't gone home yet, has he?"

Shi Jing nodded and said, "He said he'd wait for us to go back together, and he also said the machines in Fengzhou are better than those in the county town, and it'll be more fun to play."

Zeng Wenjie clicked his tongue and said, "He must have told his family that he was helping me. I'll have to take the blame for him when I get back. That bastard!"

Yes, Zeng Wenjie was always blamed for his previous bad deeds, such as smoking, skipping classes, and surfing the internet.

Even without starting a business, he could probably make a fortune selling black pots.

“Since the universities are on holiday, we’ll adjust our business hours as well. From now on, we’ll open at nine in the morning and close promptly at five at night, eight hours a day will be enough,” Zeng Wenjie said. “At the end of the month, we’ll do our year-end inventory, and then we’ll close for the holiday so everyone can go home and get some rest.”

"After the New Year, we'll open the new store and then expand our snack shop nationwide."

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Zeng Wenjie held a short meeting for everyone in the snack shop, making grand promises and giving them pep talks.

Ye Qiansheng clicked his tongue, thinking that this capitalist was more suited to pyramid schemes than to running a real business, which was a waste of his talent!

Shi Jing couldn't help but ask, "Wenjie, what is your goal?"

Target?

Zeng Wenjie was taken aback by the question. He had originally planned to start living off the gold mine as soon as he got his hands on it, and then use half of the money to buy some stocks and start enjoying his immoral life.

"My goal is to slap that woman across the face when I see Xiao Mu's stepmother!"

Zeng Wenjie suddenly smiled and revealed a goal that left everyone stunned.

Ye Qiansheng couldn't help but say, "That might be a bit difficult..."

Shi Jing said casually, "What's so difficult about that? Xiao Mu looks like the kind of girl who doesn't come from a particularly well-off family."

Ye Qiansheng gave him a mocking look and said, "Do you know what Valentino is? Do you know what Dolce & Gabbana is? You bumpkin!"

Shi Jing puffed out his chest and said, "I know LV!"

Ye Qiansheng said coldly, "All you know is LV. Every single piece of clothing that girl was wearing before was top-tier luxury, two levels higher than your brother's Marleneia, which is positioned as affordable luxury! The suitcase she was dragging was enough for your son's tuition and expenses for a whole year."

"They just have a brand name, then they manufacture the products and sell them to distributors, who then sell them to stores, and finally the stores sell them to consumers to make a profit."

Shi Jing calmly replied, "They're nothing but the bourgeoisie who exploit the working people's blood and sweat, a paper tiger! Wenjie, I fully support you going to slap Mu Qingyang's stepmother across the face."

Although it's unclear what Mu Qingyang's family situation is, judging from her previous social anxiety and Zeng Wenjie's gritted teeth expression just now, everyone can probably guess a thing or two.

"Hiss, if I ever say you're my husband again, I'll apologize to you on the spot!" Ye Qiansheng gasped.

Shi Jing winked smugly and said, "No need to be so rude, just treat me to Cuban Xueqi every day."

Ye Qiansheng couldn't tell for a moment whether this guy's old illness had relapsed or it was intentional, so he didn't dare to make any sarcastic remarks.

"Put up a sign tomorrow announcing the closing and shutdown times so that customers who are planning to stock up on New Year's goods can make one last purchase," Zeng Wenjie waved his hand, interrupting the two clowns.

Ye Qiansheng suddenly said, "The heartless woman is here."

Feng Xiao had already returned home from the startup base.

"If I were Ye Yixuan, I would stomp on your head with my high heels every day and make you call me 'sister' a hundred times," Feng Xiao sneered.

"Why should we reward him?" Zeng Wenjie asked in surprise.

Feng Xiao couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, thinking that sometimes the things this guy said were so bizarre that they were hard to understand.

Seeing that there were no more customers, Zeng Wenjie arranged to close the shop and then invited everyone to dinner.

"When I come back after the New Year, I'll rent a bigger place so the three senior students won't have to go back to the dorm and won't have to search for housing after graduation. After graduation, whether you want to continue working with me or find other jobs, just let me know in advance."

At the dinner table, Zeng Wenjie made his stance clear, speaking to the three female employees, Fu Qianzhu, Liu Xu, and Liu Qi.

Fu Qianzhu then said, "I'll definitely work for the boss. As long as you don't kick me out, I'll stay here and not leave!"

Liu Xu also laughed and said, "Where can you find a capitalist with a conscience like the boss? I'd be willing to stay and work at the snack shop too."

Liu Qi said happily, "Thank you, boss! I'll stay too!"

The base salary at the snack shop is 1,600 yuan, but the commission is high, and there's a bonus for every time a revenue record is broken.

Zeng Wenjie has been rising steadily this year, and has won the Provincial Top Ten Outstanding Youth Award. His future is promising, and no one would be foolish enough to leave at this time.
