I was in my final year of high school, and my deskmate found out I was writing a novel!

The next day, afternoon.

Upon entering the classroom, Ye Feng glanced around but didn't see the three guys. Helpless, he took out his phone and made a call.

"Feed~"

"Wait... buddy, I'm not up yet. What time is it? Aren't we going to have class?"

"We've taken the day off, don't worry."

"Wait... what time did you guys go to sleep? Even if it's delicious, you can't eat like this!"

"Ugh, I'm not going to waste my breath on you anymore, I'm going to sleep, I'm so sleepy."

My three adopted sons really put in a lot of effort last night; it's already 2 PM and they still haven't gotten up. They're really something else!

When he returned after making the call, Su Miaomiao looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. The three of them went out to play and skipped class. I just called to give them a little scolding."

"Haha, they didn't invite you when they went out to play!"

"I was asked, but I don't want to go. You'll definitely be unhappy if I go."

"It's okay! I won't be upset!"

Su Miaomiao had a "I'm being generous" expression on her face, but she thought it was just something to listen to. If Ye Feng actually did it, who knows what kind of trouble it would cause.

"By the way, Miaomiao, how are the sales of my keyboard accessory?"

Ye Feng doesn't go to the startup base often now. He spends his time writing and learning things that interest him, so he's not very clear about this.

When this was mentioned, Su Miaomiao perked up, and her eyes brightened.

"Over a hundred sets have already been sold! I never expected a keyboard set priced at three thousand to sell so well. Ye Feng, your readers are so rich!"

It's not that his readers are rich; it's that this thing alone costs more than three thousand if you buy it separately. So, it's not that his novels are so popular, it's a matter of pricing.

So, can you make money this way? Of course you can, it's just a matter of how much.

For high-end products like these, without exaggeration, if priced according to market conditions, a keyboard costing 3,000 yuan could generate a profit of 1,500 to 1,800 yuan!

But now Ye Feng has earned eight hundred, so of course he's popular.

Moreover, many people who bought the keycaps didn't like the designs and bought new ones to replace them, but that's rare.

Ye Feng is truly going against the grain. While others add value to their merchandise and set prices accordingly, he has lowered the prices.

"That's good. I was worried that sales wouldn't be high, and then we would have lost money on the license we bought back then."

"We won't lose money, it's all back now. It's just that they want a cut on orders transferred from the novel website, it's infuriating!"

"Oh, this can be considered a way to attract traffic, otherwise why would they help you attract traffic? Three percent commission isn't much. The more we give out, the more we earn. It's a win-win situation."

"By the way, I have something to tell you, my cousin seems to be dating someone!"

"Huh? Dating? With whom?"

"That Director Liu from our startup incubator, I saw them chatting so happily when I visited before!"

"Didn't you ask your cousin?"

"I wouldn't dare ask, it might cause misunderstandings. Why don't you ask?"

"Okay, I'll find some time to ask. If it's true, I'll talk to the counselor and see what I think of this Director Liu."

Wow, that's really fast! If this is true, my aunt will probably be overjoyed!

Thinking this, Ye Feng took out his phone and sent a message to his cousin.

"Are you in a relationship?"

"??? What did you say?"

"Stop pretending, I saw it all, it was Director Liu from the startup incubator!"

"...I've realized you're really bored. If you have nothing better to do, come and help out. Do you think I have time to date all day?"

"Then you and Director Liu..."

"We don't have enough space here, so I'm going to go and coordinate a venue. Didn't you tell me to go?"

"Oh, I see. I completely forgot. By the way, what do you think of Director Liu? If you think he's alright, I'll try to find out more about him for you. He's our advisor's senior!"

"Don't give me that nonsense! I'm focused on my career right now, don't hold me back!"

My cousin is really happy with her job now. Except for a little adjustment at the beginning, she's thriving now!

It's a new company, and most of the employees are college students. She manages it without any problems, and everyone admires her.

As for the accountant, there is someone in their thirties, but that's someone Ye Feng hired specifically to manage finances, so it doesn't really fit her management style.

The company is growing bigger and bigger, and we've hired two full-time customer service staff. Otherwise, relying solely on part-time students from college wouldn't be enough.

First of all, since they are working part-time, they are unlikely to be very dedicated, and there's no way to provide training or anything like that.

We currently have two professional customer service staff, plus some part-time staff, which is enough to handle the workload.

As for cross-border e-commerce, that wasn't her responsibility, because she didn't know anything about it; it was all done by Su Miaomiao and Li Hongmei.

The two of them did go quite smoothly at the beginning. As for product selection, it was all readily available.

Then the platform was chosen, of course it was Amazon, the platform is big and has a lot of traffic, but the threshold is relatively high.

Then, when the two of them went to apply for the necessary qualifications and prepare some credit cards and payment accounts, they were completely lost because they knew absolutely nothing!

In the end, we had to hire a knowledgeable veteran to help with guidance; there was no other way, we had to spend the money.

Then Li Hongmei followed the other party to the bank to handle various certificates and product certifications. Anyway, Li Hongmei was quite happy with the work, things that you can't learn in school.

This person's monthly salary of over 20,000 yuan is not for nothing; they are quite knowledgeable about cross-border e-commerce. Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the materials have already been submitted, just waiting for review.

The new store manager is already working on optimizing the product information and is just waiting for approval before starting to build the store.

This time, Ye Feng didn't have to pay; the money was directly taken from the online store's account. After all, he had earned quite a bit of money in the past few months, which was more than enough!

"Ye Feng, our cross-border e-commerce store is about to open. I followed your advice and uploaded my videos to foreign websites, but there hasn't been much of a response. What should we do?"

With the opening of a new store, promotion is a major expense, so Ye Feng came up with this idea.

However, due to the language barrier, the video didn't receive a very good response. It didn't serve any promotional purpose, and the number of views was minimal.

"Why don't you try learning some English songs? If that doesn't work, we'll have to think of something else. I don't have any good ideas."

He couldn't possibly write an English song, could he? His English wasn't good to begin with. There were English songs on the novel website on his phone, but he really couldn't do them. He would struggle to even sing them completely.

So Ye Feng didn't even think about creating an original English song to help with promotion; he'd just let things take whatever they came of it!
