While everyone was discussing the opening ceremony, An Ge also found Yun Mo.
Without Bai Yurou to bicker with, Yunmo felt somewhat out of place, even losing interest in his favorite TV dramas. When An Ge approached him, he was considering whether to return to Beijing ahead of schedule.
Seeing that Yunmo was not as energetic as usual, An Ge immediately guessed the reason. "Oh, looking at how thin you are, I now know what it means to miss someone for three autumns in a day."
Yunmo rolled his eyes at Ange and said stubbornly, "Who wants to see that tomboy Bai Yurou? Besides, do you call this skinny?" Since coming to the inn, he has gained a lot of weight. If he keeps eating, he will become fat.
Back then, he was a tall, strong, and slender young man.
"I didn't say that the person you're thinking of is Bai Yurou, why are you in such a hurry to refute me?"
Yunmo, having his secret exposed, turned his head away and ignored Ange.
An Ge suppressed a laugh. "Alright, let's get down to business. I'm here to discuss a business deal. The opening ceremony of the ice sculpture competition is about to begin. Would you be interested in being a title sponsor?"
Seeing that Yunmo was interested, Ange explained the meaning and benefits of sponsorship.
After listening, Yunmo looked at Ange with a strange expression. "Are all immortals this good at business?" He originally thought he was already a rare business genius, but he never thought he could drive the development of the Chamber of Commerce in this way.
An Ge was too lazy to correct Yun Mo's way of addressing him, and said with a look of "you've hit the jackpot," "I've specially reserved a major sponsorship position for you. Your advertising space will be bigger than others', and I might not even be willing to sponsor you."
Yunmo nodded blankly. He had never denied An Ge's help to him. "Thank you, store manager. No matter how much it costs, Jing Shi Chamber of Commerce will definitely be the main sponsor."
Having secured the major deal, An Ge's attitude towards Yun Mo improved even more. She had heard many merchants in the inn say privately that she treated Yun Mo differently. On the one hand, over time, her relationship with Yun Mo had genuinely developed into a friendship; on the other hand, Yun Mo was too shrewd, and talking to a smart person was always easier.
Yunmo pondered the matter of the title sponsor and belatedly realized that the store manager's move was brilliant. Not only did it not cost a penny, but it could also make a fortune. In the future, their chamber of commerce could also hold more events.
Soon, the guests saw the business opportunity notice on the bulletin board.
"This title sponsor is quite interesting. Jing Shi Chamber of Commerce is indeed a major chamber of commerce; it snatched the position of the main title sponsor right away," someone said sourly.
"Even if it wasn't designated by the store manager, with our strength, we still can't beat Jingshi Chamber of Commerce, right?"
"The price varies depending on the location, so I need to hurry and find Manager Hu to find a good spot."
“Me too, me too. As long as the price is within my budget, I’m definitely going to be the title sponsor.”
These businessmen are all shrewd; they quickly realized how much benefit becoming the title sponsor would bring to their businesses. The opening ceremony is currently the hottest topic of discussion in the entire Huaixi City, and one can only imagine how many people will attend. Moreover, becoming the title sponsor means receiving approval from the immortals, which will be entirely beneficial to their future development.
For a time, Hu Jiu's office was bustling with people, and many businessmen were prepared to spend a lot of money to secure the title sponsorship.
An Ge beamed with joy upon seeing the large sum of income. Although she now earned a considerable amount daily, her expenses had increased after the inn's upgrade. Moreover, according to 777, as her strength improved, the costs of entering the Boundless Space would only grow.
Ange was extremely cautious in selecting its title sponsor, considering not only the quality of the sponsor's products but also their reputation among the public. To this end, Xiao Chen even led a team to Huaixi City to conduct a thorough investigation of the bidding companies.
Soon, the list of winning bidders was announced. Some people, seeing their names not on the list, couldn't help but sigh with regret, blaming themselves for not spending more money. Others, their eyes darting around, noticed that even bidders with lower prices had won, and they guessed what was going on, their hearts pounding with anxiety.
The immortals possessed extraordinary abilities, and they realized that some of their past actions had indeed been unethical. They wondered if the immortals would punish them. Thinking of this, they felt extremely anxious and resolved to operate with integrity from now on.
Once the list was finalized, An Ge arranged for people to set up the opening ceremony venue. Drawing on her experience with some events from her previous life, she had the vendors prepare their own signs and slogans, and she would provide them with booths to display their products.
The businessmen were very interested in the advertising slogans. They hadn't expected there to be so many tricks to doing business, and they spent a lot of money to hire scholars to come up with slogans for them, striving to be the most eye-catching businesses on the opening day.
An Ge was speechless as she looked at the advertising slogans presented by the merchants. She had asked them to prepare advertising slogans, not poems. These were all like a poetry competition; if you didn't have a good education, you wouldn't understand them at all.
"Just looking at these advertisements, I have no idea what they're selling." She is, after all, a top student, but compared to scholars who have immersed themselves in classical Chinese literature for decades, her knowledge of classical Chinese is clearly lacking.
Hu Jiu suggested, "Why not explain it to them more clearly? After all, this event isn't a poetry gathering, and they're not all dealing with book lovers. Too much complicated advertising isn't good for promotion."
An Ge thought for a moment and nodded, "Then I'll discuss it with Yun Mo. After all, the influence of the Jing Shi Chamber of Commerce is undeniable."
Hu Jiu felt a little sorry for you, "You've been so busy lately, you should take a good rest. Leave these things to me."
“You’re busy enough already,” An Ge said disapprovingly.
"This is the first time the inn has hosted a large-scale event, so we can't be careless. But you're right, as the inn develops, there is indeed a shortage of senior talent, and we really should train people to take over. By the way, we can ask Chi Mu; he was the one who suggested this event. He's a genius; he excels at everything he does."
Chi Mu has only been here for less than a month, but he has already fully demonstrated his academic prowess. Even Chang Jin wanted to poach him from the supermarket.
Mentioning Chi Mu reminded Hu Jiu of his ill intentions towards An Ge, and his eyes flickered slightly. "I think Xiao Chen is quite clever and worth nurturing. How about we assign him to this task?"
An Ge squinted at Hu Jiu with a mischievous smile. "Hu Jiu, are you jealous?" How long has it been since she last saw Chi Mu? This petty man.
Hu Jiu turned his head away somewhat awkwardly, then suddenly realized, what was he feeling guilty about?
"I'm just jealous! That guy is indeed good, but he's still a scholar after all. He's not as shrewd as Xiao Chen when it comes to dealing with business people." Although Hu Jiu was bothered by Chi Mu, he would never let his petty jealousy interfere with important matters.
An Ge chuckled; Hu Jiu's jealousy was just too adorable. She stared at the top of Hu Jiu's head and suddenly remembered that when she first met him, he had two fluffy ears.
Thinking of this, An Ge looked at Hu Jiu with even more fervor.
