Chapter 12 Chapter 12
◎Searching for Pixiu◎
It was difficult to explain it in a few words over the phone. Lian Jiu had originally planned to ask for advice, so he counted the balance and decided to treat Shuang Liangliang to dinner.
Si Lan, who had just finished dinner, turned his head suddenly.
Lien Jiu: "..."
The meal was not very expensive. Shuang Liangliang was quite down-to-earth and chose a private room at Haidilao so she didn't have to show up in public.
When Shuang Jingjing arrived, she found the atmosphere in the private room a bit strange. Si Lan sat there expressionlessly looking at the tablet menu, and didn't talk to Lian Jiu.
For some reason, seeing Si Lan like this, Shuang Jingjing felt a little scared, so she quietly sat down next to Lian Jiu and asked silently, "What's wrong?"
Lian Jiu shook his head, then turned around and said coaxingly, "Have you ordered yet? The guests are here, so why don't you let them order first?"
In fact, this god was a bit angry, because after he arrived here, he found that Haidilao also sold self-heating hot pot, but it was obviously very different from the real hot pot, and it was cheaper. He felt that he had been cheated by Lian Jiu.
Lian Jiu was helpless. There was nothing he could do. Should he bring Si Lan to eat hotpot when he only had more than 200 yuan?
Then don’t go back, just wash the dishes here.
Fortunately, Si Lan was not so unreasonable. Although he was angry, he just glanced at her indifferently. The tablet was placed on the table with a slight sound.
"It's okay, I'm fine with anything." Shuang Liangliang was inexplicably frightened. "Let him order, and let's get down to business."
The tablet was taken back. Shuang Jingjing took a sip of water and got straight to the point. "What a coincidence! I just posted the video of you and your boyfriend when this kindergarten incident happened. Now everyone is really curious about you two."
Lian Jiu quickly looked at Si Lan and found that he didn't react much, so he probably didn't take it seriously.
She clarified: "He is not my boyfriend, but a colleague from our kindergarten."
"That's fine, that's perfect!" Shuang Jingjing said, "You'll attract more fans this way. Now that you have a base of popularity, it will be much easier for you to create an account than for ordinary people."
"Really?"
"Of course. Think about what kind of account you want to create. Should you go with the looks of you and your colleagues, or go with the social realities that are currently gaining attention online?"
Lian Jiu blinked and asked humbly: "Sorry, I'm not sure what this means."
"So what's the point of creating this account?"
Lian Jiu felt a little embarrassed when she mentioned this. She frowned, but she was also very honest: "The conditions of kindergartens are not very good now. I hope there is some way to make money so that the children can have a better living environment."
Shuang Liangliang stopped drinking water and remained silent for a long time.
Lian Jiu was unsure: "Is there any difficulty?"
"No. Sorry, I overthought it." Shuang Liangliang put down the cup, her shoulders relaxed, and she said with a smile, "If that's the case, it might be a little more complicated. If you don't handle it properly, netizens will probably speculate that you're just putting on a show to hype yourself up. You need to post more frequent and genuine videos so people can see your progress. If possible, it would be even better to do a live broadcast."
"live streaming?"
"Yes, the nature of your account means you're currently limited in the amount of advertising resources you can receive. Also, since it's just the beginning, the quality of advertisers varies greatly, so you can't accept everything. If there are unscrupulous businesses, they're deceiving consumers, which would be very damaging to your account." Shuang Jingjing explained in detail, even looking up some example accounts on her phone. "But if it's a livestream, then the tips from netizens come directly."
Lian Jiu thought about this possibility seriously. In fact, she had considered live streaming, but some of the little monsters were not very good at maintaining their shapes now. The video could be edited, but if they performed a magic trick during the live broadcast, the impact would be huge.
"The child's feelings should always come first," Lian Jiu said. "I'll seriously consider it. Thank you."
"You're welcome." Shuang Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief. "How about this, I'll do some promotion for you later. You can send me some videos and pictures to bring you some fans."
Although he was tempted, he calmed down after thinking about his account balance: "Thank you very much, but I don't have that much money at the moment."
"I don't want your money. Originally, I did want to ask if you could take advantage of this publicity to collaborate again, but my model is too commercial. You're doing this for the children, so it's not good for you to be constantly in my presence. I shouldn't take advantage of this." Shuang Jingjing felt embarrassed now and lowered her head slightly. "Besides, if I post it, it would be considered as me taking advantage of the publicity for a charity, which would also benefit me."
The matter was settled, and the host and the guests enjoyed the meal very much.
only……
Shuang Jingjing stared at Si Lan, who was being sucked in by the storm, and was stunned: "Is his stomach okay if he eats like this?"
Lian Jiu felt bad about his balance, but thinking about how he had used those street vendor donkeys, he also felt a little guilty, so he just let him go: "It's okay, it's normal. With a similar appetite, we still have 80 more in the kindergarten."
"..." Shuang Jingjing immediately understood and offered her a glass of plum juice. "No wonder you need to make money, but aren't you a teacher? Is this also within your job scope?"
"Actually, I'm the principal of this kindergarten."
Upon hearing this, Shuang Jingjing was filled with awe. It was truly remarkable that she could raise a child in such a difficult environment, yet still think about the child wholeheartedly and take on the responsibility.
"Thank you for your hard work. If you need me, you can tell me anytime. It's free."
-
When he returned to the kindergarten in the evening, Lian Jiu got today's shooting materials from Yu Chongming, and added some that had not been used before, and sent them to Shuang Liangliang. Both sides worked overtime to send out today's video together.
Sure enough, within an hour of posting it, the kindergarten account gained a lot of followers.
【Ahhhh, what a cute child! I want to pull his tail!】
【Follow me, I will come here to raise my children online in the future! 】
[I'm staying here. No one can let my kids suffer!]
[Where's the face? Why didn't I see the face of the guy who came yesterday? He was so pretty!]
[What is your appearance score requirement for kindergarten admission and employment? ]
[Who is the other handsome guy in Jingjing’s video? Is he not in the video? ]
Seeing this, Lian Jiu remembered the set of photos she and Si Lan had taken before. She clicked on Shuang Jingjing's homepage and found that the video already had more than one million likes, and all the comments below were asking who the protagonist of the photo was.
Some people originally thought it was another internet celebrity, but later found out that Lian Jiu was a kindergarten teacher.
As expected, because the timing was so coincidental, some people thought it was a pre-planned hype, because the kindergarten account was a new one, and a new account suddenly gained so much popularity.
In the video, Shuang Jingjing wrote the copy: "Everyone has their own opinion. Teacher Jiujiu is the most amazing. We will see it slowly in the future."
[Just wait and see, time will tell, let's see if you guys will reveal your true colors.]
But the kids are actually really happy, it doesn't seem like they're acting.
[Official accounts have come out to testify. Will you die if you read a few more lines of the book?]
【Waiting for future live streaming sales. 】
Lian Jiu didn't care much about these things. The innocent will be innocent. Since she decided to take this path, she had to take certain risks, and she was prepared.
And just as Shuang Jingjing said, now that she has become popular, she has received private messages from some advertisers. Most of them are small workshops that cannot be traced. They cannot guarantee the quality or quantity and are meaningless.
Lian Jiu is seriously considering the feasibility of live broadcast.
The next day, Yu Chongming happily said that the funds he had applied for previously had come in, including the construction funds for the new school. The big demons were now selecting a site for building a new school building, and asked Lian Jiu to go over and take a look.
Lian Jiu went to the mountain gate and saw that in addition to Long Ying Si Lan, there were several other monsters he had never seen before.
Long Ying introduced: "This is our director Lian Jiu."
He pointed at several other monsters and said, "This is another colleague from our unit. You haven't seen him before when he was on a business trip to other areas."
The tall, curly-haired man in a black suit was called Su Caifeng. Upon seeing Lian Jiu, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "The new director seems to be very lucky."
Lian Jiu's eyes widened slightly. Is this serious? All his cards are gone, and he only has two hundred yuan left on him!
Maybe it was just a polite remark, she nodded: "You too."
Then he secretly asked Si Lan, "Which demon god is this?"
Si Lan: "Searching for Pixiu."
!!!
Lian Jiu immediately turned around and extended his hand enthusiastically: "I've heard a lot about you. Would you like to shake hands?"
The Pixiu says it has good fortune! Hurry up and get some luck!
Su Caifeng nodded seriously: "Okay."
There were two other specially invited engineering designers, who were just ordinary humans. However, they were allowed in only after signing a confidentiality agreement. Even so, these two engineers were not allowed to set foot in the kindergarten. It seemed that they were not told that this was the territory of monsters.
Seeing the situation in Fuyu Mountain, the two engineers were excited: "If you develop this place into a tourist attraction, you will definitely make a lot of money!"
Long Ying immediately said, "We are not open to the public for the time being."
Both of them were a little disappointed, no wonder they had to sign a confidentiality agreement.
Long Ying asked again: "Teacher Lian Jiu, where do you think is the best place to build our new school?"
The money was approved so quickly because of Lian Jiu's intervention. To put it another way, she is indeed very lucky in terms of wealth, and several demon gods are willing to let her choose the site.
Fuyushan has a vast area, and everything looks good at a glance.
But Lian Jiu suggested a location near the mountains and water, on the southern side of the mountain: "That way it would be convenient for every child."
The two engineers also thought there was no problem and said that they would recruit a suitable engineering team after the design was completed.
Lian Jiu suddenly had an idea. He walked over to Long Ying and lowered his voice, "Director Long, apart from those more technical jobs, can we first select other workers from our demon world?"
"you mean?"
"Don't many monsters have nothing to do?" Lian Jiu said, "From what I know, many monsters are very strong, and this will ensure they have a source of income for the next period of time."
After a pause, thinking about the class he had "visited" before, Lian Jiu continued, "If the children continue to live in caves or trees, many of the things we teach them will be meaningless. If the monsters follow these engineers, they can also learn. With some construction experience, even if they can't afford to buy a house, we can still have a place to shelter from the wind and rain by building our own."
Several demon gods with excellent hearing turned their heads with surprise in their eyes.
Lian Jiu's reaction was too quick. He was able to discover so many problems in a short period of time and solve them based on practical situations.
"That makes sense, and the money goes into your own pocket." Pixiu was the first to agree, his face full of admiration, "I like this new director very much."
Long Ying also thought it was feasible: "Okay, then I'll go back and inform everyone."
Just then, a red-fronted parrot came flying in from afar, saying, "Director, Director! Our vegetables are growing!"
Lien Jiu: "..."
Two engineers standing nearby were horrified: "What is this?! Can birds talk?!"
Si Lan said calmly, "Is it strange that a parrot can talk?"
As he spoke, he grabbed Ba Wu who was flying over and pinched his leg: "The wild animals here learn to talk very quickly."
"Yeah, yeah." Lian Jiuye quickly hinted, "Ordinary people rarely see such a smart parrot, right?"
"Really? It looks like a wild animal." The two engineers came over in confusion. "Tell me something."
Ba Wu was pinched by the back of the neck by the God of Destiny, and his eyes rolled: "Two sentences!"
Si Lan: "Look."
The rest of the people and monsters: "..."
Seeing that the two engineers were about to let Ba Wu perform again, Lian Jiu hurriedly pulled Si Lan, who was holding Ba Wu, aside and said, "Wild animals should not be allowed to stay near humans for too long."
Away from the two people, Ba Wu was still confused: "Why are there people coming from the demon world?"
Lian Jiu: "Hey, what were you trying to say just now?"
"Oh, right!" Ba Wu remembered his purpose and conjured up a small cabbage from nowhere. "All those seeds you asked me to buy have grown, and the free-range piglet has also grown quite fat."
Lian Jiu took it and looked at it, and found that it was indeed fresher than the ones outside.
"It's edible," Ba Wu said. "I washed it."
Lian Jiu took a bite and his eyes lit up: "So sweet, and it's much faster than I thought."
"So what's next?"
"If we continue to grow at this rate, we can apply for an agricultural loan," Lian Jiu said. "We can not only eat the vegetables we grow ourselves, but also sell them in the human world."
She frowned. "But if we grow greenhouse vegetables, besides growing them, we'll need someone to manage input and output, as well as funds."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a light cough behind him. Lian Jiu turned around in confusion and saw the Pixiu looking at him with bright eyes.
Before Lian Jiu could say anything, Si Lan sneered, "Don't even think about it."
