"Teacher, I just answered a courier call, and when I picked it back up, you hung up. I should have told you in advance. I will pay attention next time. Oh, by the way, the curtains have arrived. When can you come over to install them?"
"I'm not going."
"What's wrong? Teacher, did I do something wrong? Actually, I don't want to open a shop with you, but I always feel like it's not enough. My family can't help me with anything other than giving me money, so I thought of opening a shop with a teacher. After all, you are older than me, so you should know more. Wait, I got a recording here, let me check it out."
The male classmate played the recording while talking on the phone.
"How did ancient emperors gain control of the world? One way was through a bottom-up uprising, and the other was through a top-down coup. An uprising to seize power required some of the lower classes to unite and form a fighting group to engage in a decisive battle with the imperial army. After a coup by a powerful official, the official would also engage in a decisive battle with the old forces, either in the imperial court or in the wilderness."
"Teacher, why are you telling me all this? Are you trying to say you want to revolt? I've already made you chairman, isn't that enough?"
"But I'm just a puppet in the shell. Aren't you the one who's actually doing the work? Have you asked me where it's going? Anyway, if you're going to let me be the chairman, you have to open a beauty salon in my house, otherwise I'll just quit."
"Teacher, I understand what you just said, all that flowery talk. You mean you want real power, so you want to fight me? If you think you're my match, then come on over. Anyway, I will never open a shop in an apartment. Even if I open it in a villa on the first floor, I won't let my customers climb the stairs."
"Our house is an elevator."
"That won't work either. It doesn't seem formal. Where have you seen any amazing places? Are they in apartments? Aren't they all in pedestrian shopping districts? It seems I overestimated your ability, teacher. If it doesn't work, I'll do it myself."
"Then do you know how to apply the graceful beauty of a woman's morning makeup, applying powder to her lips, drawing eyebrows and eyes, and combing her hair?"
"Just learn it."
"But you're not a student anymore. How much time can you devote to studying?"
"You mean you and I can continue our studies? It's not impossible. When I heard you talk about the college entrance exam last time, I was really itching to know which university I could get into. But I also want to run the shop and continue my studies at the same time, and I don't know how to do it."
"Then you can let someone else take care of it, and you only need to invest the money. Wouldn't that make me the biggest shareholder? If they don't manage it well, they can just walk away. But what about me? We've put all our belongings here, and if we lose everything, what will we do? My parents will be so pissed off. This is all their retirement money. I'm already very grateful that they can give it to me. It's all because I can't find a suitable job."
"How about this? Since you came up with the idea, I'll try to find you a partner. He'll invest money, and you can focus on your studies. Anyway, if he doesn't do well, he'll lose his money. This way, we can share the risk."
"That's fine, but if I don't know him, I can't trust him completely. If that doesn't work, can you please vote for me, teacher?"
