Chapter 165 Income



She's not very good looking, but she's a bit pretty.

It's chubby, it would be nice to hold it in your arms like a doll.

There's just no feminine charm, well, at least not in my opinion.

I never thought that this brother was this kind of... pervert who likes little girls. He should like the type that is mature, intellectual, strong, and even able to step on his head, like the senior sister who performed for him on the stage last night.

Of course, Chen Tinghan didn't know that in his sister's heart, he had been degraded from a brother to a pervert who liked little girls and loved being stepped on. He coughed twice and was about to say something to relieve the almost freezing air when Li Zishan, as if remembering something, put down her chopsticks and fished in her schoolbag on the sofa.

She took out her own board and smiled cutely: "Your brother often talked about you to me and showed me your photo. Look, this is what I drew based on the photo."

Chen Shikui looked at the tablet nonchalantly. They were all students, so what level of painting could they produce? Until she looked closely, she saw that the painting was based on her, an exquisite and beautiful celluloid-style painting with very mature brushstrokes, and... it looked very much like her!

Sister Shikui was shocked, but this was not the biggest surprise. Li Zishan turned to the next page, which was a Q-version avatar based on Shikui. The color style was clear and cool, yet just right and cute.

Her name is also thoughtfully designed next to it.

Chen Shikui covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Did you draw this?"

"Yes." Li Zishan said with a smile, pointing to the signature next to the painting, and said, "Here, this is my circle name."

Shikui looked closely and saw the words "Little Four Seasons" written in the lower left corner of the painting.

"Hey, are you the artist who painted the murals at Haiyi Middle School's sports day yesterday?"

"It's me." Li Zishan said in surprise, "Huh, has it spread?"

"The video we recorded yesterday has spread through the campus wall," Chen Shikui said, her attitude completely changing. "Social media is praising the painting, my brother, and... well, the singer."

As Chen Shikui was speaking, he glanced to the side, as if he felt that the topic was not appropriate, and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Can you send me this painting as a wallpaper or profile picture?"

"Of course, I drew this for you. I'm glad you don't mind." Li Zishan was very happy that her painting was liked and said, "I'll remove the watermark in the lower left corner first. You can use it with or without the watermark later."

"Okay, okay, I definitely won't post it on social media, otherwise it'll be stolen and everywhere the next day. And those with watermarks will use software to remove them." Chen Shikui said, "Thank you, Sister Shanshan."

Looking at the two girls who suddenly became so excited and called each other sisters, Chen Tinghan was a little dumbfounded. For a moment, he felt that women were really the most mysterious group in the world.

Chen Tinghan couldn't help but ask, "When did you draw these? How come I don't know about them?"

"Can you still call it a surprise if you know it?" Li Zishan glanced at him and said, "It's none of your business. Go away."

"Okay." Chen Tinghan shrugged and said, "I'll go wash the dishes and pots right away."

Then he went into the kitchen and washed the dishes while listening to the faint laughter of the two women in the living room. Chen Tinghan's mouth curled up unconsciously, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If the two of them had a bad relationship and couldn't get along, he would have a headache.

By the time they finished washing the pots and pans and went out, they were already close enough to hug each other.

His sister is so easy to bribe.

Chen Shikui suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, this is the latest sales. I've made a bill. You can take a look."

"Didn't I tell you that it was earned by you as a shareholder?" Chen Tinghan, sitting next to him, said indifferently.

"Then you have to confirm it, just treat it as a shareholders' meeting." Chen Shikui said, "We've been very careful with our takeout delivery business, fearing that others would find out. However, many competitors have emerged recently, so our sales have declined.

But there's good news. We're the only one that dominates the campus wall business in Wanghai. With the current upward momentum, even if the growth rate remains the same, if we continue like this, we'll be able to make 340,000 yuan a year!"

This news surprised him greatly. This number far exceeded his expectations. "No, this crappy thing has so many submissions every day?"

"Yes," Li Zishan interrupted, "You're a really good hands-off boss. It's only the middle of the month, and we've already earned over 10,000 yuan, which is a considerable turnover. There are so many people that we can't keep up with the queues every day, and it's almost flooding the screen. Last time I asked for your opinion, but you didn't want to intervene, so I had no choice but to ask Jiajia, Lao Xu, and the moderator of your partnership.

The couple said that when it comes to posting for money, the more you post, the lower the value, and there must be a limit on the number of posts per day, so we use bidding, letting them bid within a certain range, and we only post to the highest bidder.

"Won't I get scolded for this?" Chen Tinghan scratched his head.

"You said before that for help requests like missing persons or items, fundraising for illnesses, etc., we will verify them and post them for free. We will prioritize them at the top for a period of time based on the urgency of the matter. As for those who are only willing to pay the full price, we will not refuse to post them, but we will just postpone them a little."

After listening to this, Chen Tinghan scratched his head and sighed, "There is no business without fraud."

"You came up with the idea of ​​charging for the campus wall. You're the profiteer." Li Zishan glared at him and said, "And your good brother Lao Xu, you're also profiteers."

Because of this incident, as the campus wall became more and more recognized in various universities in Wanghai, Chen Tinghan gradually gave up. There were dozens or hundreds of messages every day, either about relationship problems or daily quarrels, such trivial matters as someone's things were lost or stolen. It was too difficult for him to distinguish the useful information from these things.

So he simply asked Secretary Yu to scan all kinds of help information regularly and didn't bother with it anymore. He didn't expect that it would bring such considerable economic benefits.

"Of course, we were going to share the hundreds of thousands of dollars we earn each year, but the forum owner over there won't accept any money, no matter how much it's paid. She says it's what you deserve."

Chen Tinghan broke out in a cold sweat after hearing his sister's meaningful words.

He coughed and said, "Save that money. You can buy a car a year, or even a house in the suburbs. But don't be too optimistic. This charging model will probably be unsustainable once people's novelty wears off or large-scale competing products emerge. Income is bound to decline."
