I was in my final year of high school, and my deskmate found out I was writing a novel!
Chapter 118 Big Sister's Kindness
"Miaomiao, we have to go back to school the day after tomorrow."
"Yeah, that's fast!"
"Do you want to take something back with you?"
"Hmm... but what would I bring if I'm so unreliable?"
"I don't know either, I was hoping you could take a look."
On the afternoon of the 5th, the two had just returned from outside, going to school to see their old teacher and, incidentally, to show off to the envious eyes of their younger schoolmates.
They have finally escaped their misery.
As soon as Ye Feng got back, he asked Su Miaomiao if they needed to prepare in advance, so they wouldn't be caught off guard.
But they really don't have any local specialties here!
"We'll see if there's anything good to eat then, and we can bring some with us."
Ye Feng offered his opinion, but there really wasn't any other way.
Besides this matter, Ye Feng also took on another task: to help Chen Guowei take the lead.
He decided to do it; even if it was just to earn some living expenses, it would be good, since it wouldn't waste much of his time anyway.
These past few days, he's been spending all his free time researching information on this topic, including performance, price, configurations, and PC building.
He doesn't have anyone to practice assembling computers. Although he's watched a lot and thinks he knows how, watching and doing are different. So, he's planning to see if he can find a part-time job after school starts.
As for Ye Feng taking the lead, it meant introducing Zhou Ming to him, teaching him how to assemble computers, imparting some tips and tricks, and then it was about getting the goods.
On his phone, Ye Feng was chatting with Chen Guowei.
"If all else fails, just buy one and assemble it yourself; consider it practice."
"That's right. I told my mom I wanted to buy a computer, since that's what I'm studying, and she agreed."
"Isn't this even better? That thing is simple. I reckon you'll get a feel for it once you assemble one. As for getting the parts, you can get them from my roommate first. Just make sure they're cheaper than the market price. You can just make a profit from the assembly fee. If you can really increase the volume, you can contact the distributor yourself."
"That's all we can do for now, but we still need you to make the connection. By the way, your roommate won't object, will she? Colleagues are always enemies."
"...What do you mean 'enemies'? He's in Shanghai, and you're in Nanjing. You two have nothing to do with each other. Let me ask him first, and wait for my reply if it works out."
"Thank you for your help. I'll treat you to a meal next time I have a holiday!"
"Wow, this is the first time I've ever seen you so polite."
He had just finished chatting with Zhou Ming when he sent him a message.
Zhou Ming was very accommodating and sent over a form directly.
"This is the wholesale price my brother gave me. That's the price I get from him. When your friend needs something, just have him send it to me, and I'll have my brother ship it to him. Just say he's my downstream supplier!"
"Okay, I'll treat you to a meal at school!"
Ye Feng didn't know whether Zhou Ming had made any money or not, and he had nowhere to investigate, so he simply forwarded it to Chen Guowei, and also sent him Zhou Ming's WeChat contact information.
"I've already spoken to him; you can check the price first to see if it's suitable."
It took Chen Guowei quite a while to send it to him.
"I've added it. I've compared the prices, and it definitely has an advantage. Maybe I can even make more money!"
"Then you two chat. By the way, he also likes playing basketball. If you have time to come to our school, maybe you two can get along. Also, if you have any conflicts, tell me in time, so I don't end up in the middle and not be able to stand out from the crowd."
"Don't worry about that, you know who we are."
"Just keep it in mind, and then it's up to you."
He gave the business a push, but how far it can go depends on his own efforts.
Chen Guowei got 7,000 from his mother. He originally wanted to ask for 10,000, saying that since he was studying computer science, he needed to buy a better computer.
But his mother knew what kind of person he was, so she only gave him seven thousand. He took the seven thousand and used it to buy a five thousand computer. Yes, he kept two thousand!
He didn't plan to use the two thousand yuan to improve his life; instead, he planned to treat everyone at the school—not just any students, but also senior students in the student union and graduate students—to ask about computer configurations and to ask for their help in promoting his products.
In school, nothing is more convenient than the student council; it's a small circle that can reach the entire school.
Chen Guowei's idea was simple: let's all make money together. We'll set the price a little higher, but it will be cheaper than online. We'll also clearly state how much commission we'll get per computer!
After all, how many people does he know? And why would anyone trust him? He's just a freshman who hasn't even been in school for a month.
He had already decided that he must get this five-thousand-yuan computer working properly, so that it could serve as a sample.
In other words, he doesn't have money. If he did, he would like to assemble a computer of every price range and see if he could apply for a classroom at the school, then install all these computers there, offer free trials, on-site installation, and warranty service—all in one go!
He spent more than just hotel rooms with that fitness coach over the summer; they chatted from time to time, and he learned a lot from them. Now, it's starting to affect him.
Not only did Ye Feng not think of these things, but Zhou Ming and the other two never considered them either. They were all thinking of doing it themselves and never thought of using the school's resources.
Chen Guowei, who had spent several months hanging out with the older sisters and aunts, had taken all of this into account. That's the difference!
Although school is about to start, Chen Guowei is not idle. He is asking everyone in the high school group one by one, offering to clean their computers for free!
It has to be said that after his older sister's intervention, his brain seemed to have been enlightened, and he became incredibly bright!
Was he really that kind? Of course not, he just wanted to take apart the computer, put it back together, and practice his skills!
His desktop computer is quite old, so it's really not very useful for reference. It takes several minutes to turn on now, let alone do anything else.
However, after asking around, I couldn't find anyone. Anyone with a brain wouldn't let him do that. What cleaning? Why mess with the computer when it's perfectly fine!
Besides, it hasn't even been a month since school started, so people probably don't believe he's that good enough!
And so, he ended up asking Ye Feng for help again, knowing that Ye Feng had a computer at home.
"No, you can't take my computer apart; it's not the same."
"What's the difference? They're both plugs, not many screws at all. Don't worry, I'll buy you a new one if it breaks!"
"Fine, I'll send you the location, you can come and see for yourself. I definitely won't let you disassemble it, but I can open the case so you can take a look."
On the 6th, Chen Guowei arrived eagerly.
Wow, your house is beautifully decorated!
"It's alright. Didn't you want to use the computer? It's in the bedroom."
Su Miaomiao didn't come; she went shopping with Li Hongmei. Ye Feng wanted to go too, but Su Miaomiao turned him down.
