Chapter 340
Time flies by in busy days.
Ji Wanmei's audio-visual store has been open for more than half a month, and business has been very good.
In just half a month, she issued more than 500 membership cards, and every day there were many customers in each store renting and returning CDs and tapes.
For this reason, Ji Wanmei even hired a part-time shop assistant.
The part-time shop assistant was also a student at East China University, a third-year male majoring in electronic information. He was very interested in this industry and had previously been a customer of Ji Wanmei's shop. He became familiar with Ji Wanmei because he often came to rent VCDs and tapes.
Ji Wanmei learned that he was very good at these things and understood some of the principles of equipment repair. The boy also learned that Ji Wanmei was looking for a part-time shop assistant.
The two sides can reach an agreement simply by making a snap decision.
The coursework for third-year students is not as demanding as that for first- and second-year students. By the time they reach their senior year, most students have already started to be assigned to internships.
Therefore, juniors have more free time.
Most of the time, the boy from the electronics department helped Ji Wanmei look after the shop. When Ji Wanmei wasn't in class, she would also go over and check on things.
After all, once a store is up and running, apart from the necessary manpower and managing the entry and exit of goods, it doesn't really need her, the boss, to be personally in charge every day.
The good business of the audio-visual store naturally brought Ji Wanmei a high income.
By the end of the month, she had saved up another three thousand yuan in cash, plus the more than one thousand yuan that Luo Chunyan had given her before. She planned to deposit it in the bank to make it a round number.
Once June is over, summer vacation will begin again.
Time passed quickly, but Ji Wanmei felt that time was passing very slowly.
Two years is such a long time.
Taking advantage of the weekend, Ji Wanmei went to the bank, took out her passbook, and went to the counter to find the account manager.
Because she had a private safe deposit box and a large deposit account at this bank tonight, she had a dedicated VIP account manager to assist her.
Ji Wanmei took the five thousand yuan in savings directly and said, "Hello manager, could you please help me apply for a one-year short-term fixed deposit?"
The manager asked in surprise, "Ms. Ji, why do you want to apply for a fixed-term deposit this time? If you want to apply for a fixed-term deposit, I could recommend some other projects to you, such as this five-year fixed-term deposit, which has a higher interest rate and interest amount. For a customer like you with such a large monthly deposit amount, I can ask our supervisor to apply for a more favorable plan for you."
Ji Wanmei shook her head: "No need. I will need this money in a year, and I will withdraw it then, so you just need to set up a one-year storage period for me."
The manager nodded regretfully. She rarely encountered a client as young as Ms. Ji, who had so much cash in her personal asset account.
If she can be persuaded to open a long-term fixed-amount savings account at their bank, then she won't have to worry about her performance targets.
But since Ji Wanmei had already said that, the manager couldn't persuade her any further. He checked Ji Wanmei's account in the back office and asked, "Ms. Ji, you have another remittance this month, which is three thousand yuan. Would you like us to deposit it into a fixed deposit account for you?"
"A remittance of three thousand yuan?" Ji Wanmei frowned. She didn't remember having a remittance of three thousand yuan.
She suddenly remembered something and said, "Could you please help me find out the bank location and account for this remittance?"
The account manager glanced at the bank and account number of the remittance and said, "It was a remittance from the Pingdong City People's Bank to you two weeks ago. The remitter's name is Lei Tingjun."
Ji Wanmei paused for a moment, her usually calm emotions suddenly starting to falter.
The bank's account manager, sitting across from her, noticed with surprise that Ms. Ji's eyes seemed to be red.
I wanted to ask, but I felt it wouldn't be appropriate to ask so abruptly, so I could only wait for her instructions as politely as possible.
After a while, Ji Wanmei calmed herself down, smiled, and nodded, saying, "Well, then I'll trouble you to deposit both sums into a fixed deposit account for me."
The account manager was pleased: "Okay, Ms. Ji, we'll process an 8,000 yuan fixed deposit for you. If you choose a monthly fixed deposit, I can select the one with the highest interest rate for you."
Ji Wanmei thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let's do this. Choose short-term options for all of them, one year each."
After finishing her business at the bank, Ji Wanmei walked out with her bag, looking at the bright sunshine outside, and thinking about what the account manager had said earlier.
Lei Tingjun is such a fool. Her father forbids him from seeing her, yet he still stupidly sends her money.
Mingming's own projects all require financial expenditures.
***
June has flown by.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and East China University will soon be on summer vacation.
Ji Wanmei received a letter that day, sent from Pingdong Vocational College.
The letter was sent by Zhu Shuangyan, who told Ji Wanmei that she had successfully graduated.
Attached to the letter were her graduation exam results and graduation certificate.
This fulfilled her promise to Ji Wanmei that she would return to work at the Dongfang Factory after graduation.
In the letter, Zhu Shuangyan suggested that she would come to East China University in a few days, and after Ji Wanmei's holiday, they would go back to Pingquan County together and spend a couple of days at East China University. Aqiang would bring her along.
After reading the letter, Ji Wanmei calculated the days.
Their school is on holiday this weekend. Zhu Shuangyan and Aqiang will come over this weekend, and Ji Wanmei will take them to play in East China for two days, and then they will go back to Pingquan County together, which will be around July.
