Lin Yifeng never expected that Guo Fengsheng, who was only 18 years old and had not yet left school, would be so hardworking.

He had never drunk alcohol before, but in order to get the air conditioner installer to finish installing Wallace's air conditioner before June, he drank a whole bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor), which caused him to have a stomach hemorrhage.

Lin Yifeng apologized to Guo Fengsheng for his behavior, and at the same time, he announced on the spot that Guo Fengsheng would be promoted to store manager of Wallace Railway Station Store, and his salary would be increased from 3 yuan per day to 10 yuan per day.

In addition, he can also receive 1 percent of the net profit from the Wallace train station store.

The Wallace train station store is currently Wallace's highest-selling store, as well as its most luxurious decor and the store with the most employees.

This 24-hour shop has become a unique sight in Makino City.

Guo Fengsheng serves as the store manager of Wallace's train station store. Based on the current sales volume of the train station store, Guo Fengsheng can receive one or two thousand in bonuses every month.

In 1992, an income of just under two thousand yuan per month was almost comparable to an income of one hundred thousand yuan per month in later generations.

This income was earned by Guo Fengsheng at the cost of his life.

Guo Fengsheng was hospitalized on paid leave to recuperate, and Lin Yifeng handed over the task of upgrading Wallace's quality control to Xu Qingyi and Zhou Xuelan.

Logically, given the lack of capable subordinates, he should have taken over the responsibility.

But today is May 21st.

In two days, Veronica Yip will be celebrating her birthday.

Almost a month ago, Veronica Yip suddenly appeared in the dormitory and told Lam Yat-fung that it was his birthday on May 23. Lam Yat-fung had promised to celebrate his birthday with her.

"Qingyi, you and Huniu will be in charge of Wallace's quality control upgrade. I may go out for a couple of days, and I'm not sure when I'll be back."

Lin Yifeng assigned Xu Qingyi and Hu Niu Zhou Xuelan to be in charge of quality control upgrades.

Although Xu Qingyi is young, she is very experienced in handling affairs and is also very good at fighting. She is not afraid of threats at all.

When Tiger Lord came with his men to extort money, Xu Qingyi specifically asked to fight Tiger Lord one-on-one.

Zhou Xuelan, on the other hand, is both rough and meticulous. She can help Xu Qingyi find and fill in any gaps, preventing Xu Qingyi from being taken advantage of in contracts and documents.

With these two working together, upgrading the quality control of Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream shouldn't be a problem.

To ensure Xu Qingyi's successful completion of the quality control upgrade, Lin Yifeng also handed over the Wallace delivery team to Xu Qingyi for command.

Wallace's delivery team consisted of Gangzi and some of his friends, as well as Wang Sande, Wang Zhaowu, and other employees who had been laid off from the meat processing plant.

This food delivery team isn't particularly strong, but when they're brought out, they're quite intimidating and can deter timid thugs.

As for the bold ones...

Then we can only ask Ye Yuqing's younger brother, Ye Wuzheng, to take action.

No matter how good you are at fighting, can you defeat a regular army?

...

In late May, the weather was hot.

The weather in Central China is strange; in May, the temperature can soar to around 40 degrees Celsius.

In this sweltering heat, you could practically fry an egg right on the ground.

My roommate in the school dormitory was lying on the bed, groaning incessantly. This dilapidated dormitory didn't even have a creaky electric fan. If my roommate wanted to fall asleep, he either had to take a cold shower or rely on the "cooling down in a calm state of mind" method.

There are only 7 people in the dormitory now. Guo Fengsheng is still lying in the hospital. Although he feels that he is fine, Lin Yifeng insists that he stay in bed for at least a week.

"It's so hot!"

"This weather is so hot!"

"No, I need to take a cold shower!"

It was too hot to sleep. Lin Yifeng lay in bed, but the heat made it hard to fall asleep. He wondered if he should go out and find a guesthouse to stay in.

Better guesthouses have electric fans, which, while not as effective as air conditioning, are still much better than dormitories.

"It's too hot to sleep. Who wants to go to the playground to cool off and come back to sleep later in the night? Anyway, we don't have any classes now, so we can sleep until we naturally wake up in the morning."

"No way! The playground is full of mosquitoes. You'd be their food!"

"There's not even an electric fan! Ugh, I can't sleep!"

"I guess I'll just have to take a shower."

Lin Yifeng's roommates were wailing incessantly. After thinking for a moment, he got out of bed and started getting dressed.

He made up his mind; he was going to sleep outside.

"Brother Feng, where are you going?"

Lin Yifeng's getting out of bed startled the other people in the dormitory. After slowly getting dressed, he put his money and other belongings on his person and said with a smile, "It's too hot, I can't stand it."

"I'm planning to go out and clear my head, or maybe I'll just find a place to stay with a fan."

"I don't know if we can find a place with air conditioning. It would be great if we could find a guesthouse with air conditioning."

In big cities like Kyoto and Shanghai, finding a hotel with air conditioning isn't a problem.

But in a small fourth-tier city like Makino, finding a guesthouse with air conditioning is practically a pipe dream.

These days, how many workplaces can afford to install air conditioning?

"You're being too extravagant! This is practically capitalist behavior!"

"Having an electric fan is already a blessing, let alone air conditioning. To be honest, I've never even seen an air conditioner!"

"I've never seen it either!"

"I'd be happy with just an electric fan!"

Lin Yifeng groaned as his roommate checked his belongings to make sure he had everything, then said goodbye to his roommate and left the dormitory.

It is 10:07 PM now.

Lin Yifeng glanced at the newly bought watch on his left wrist, smiled, and asked the dormitory aunt to let him out.

With graduation just days away, the school has been turning a blind eye to the graduating class of '89, leaving them alone unless their behavior is particularly outrageous.
