Yuan Fangguo walked into the bustling Bashu University and quickly completed the registration procedures with the enthusiastic help of his seniors.
The school arranged for the freshmen to stay in the Soviet Experts Building built in the early 1960s. Later, due to the tense relations between China and the Soviet Union, the Soviet experts withdrew and this place became a dormitory for college students.
Unlike the third floor he was assigned to in his previous life, this time he was assigned to the second floor.
However, because he arrived too early, when he walked into the dormitory, there was no one inside.
When he saw the names of three other people on the doorplate, he was still a little surprised that his roommates had changed.
After packing his things, Yuan Fangguo felt his stomach rumbling. He hadn't eaten for almost 12 hours since he left home at five in the morning.
After touching his flat belly, Yuan Fangguo decided to go out for something to eat and take a look at the business opportunities around him.
After walking out of the dormitory building, they soon arrived at the main road of the school. At this time, Yuan Fangguo discovered that there were actually quite a lot of couples in the university. Although they did not have the intimate actions like those in the 21st century, anyone with a discerning eye could see some clues at once.
However, his mind was not on the couples coming and going, nor on the beautiful scenery on campus, but on this way to make money.
Since school hasn’t started yet in the next two days, I can look for business opportunities.
This was Yuan Fangguo’s first goal.
Walking out of the bustling university campus, Yuan Fangguo discovered that the school was almost surrounded by restaurants, shops, fruit stores, stationery stores and other commercial shops. It seemed that it was not easy to find a way to make a fortune among these many shops.
Yuan Fangguo was reluctant to spend money lavishly and was afraid of being ripped off, so he chose a noodle shop with clearly marked prices and asked the owner for two taels of fried noodles with soybean paste.
Zhajiangmian is not expensive, only two yuan a bowl.
The noodles were served quickly. Yuan Fangguo didn't care about his image. He picked up the chopsticks and started eating with big mouthfuls. At this moment, in his eyes, these noodles were hundreds of times more delicious than those delicacies from land and sea.
He finished a big bowl of noodles in less than three minutes. Yuan Fangguo wiped his mouth and was not in a hurry to leave.
"Boss, the noodles here are really good and cheap." Yuan Fangguo tried to get close to the owner.
"It's delicious, right? Come often and I'll give you discounts." The shop owner said with his eyes narrowed and his legs crossed.
"It tastes really good. How much does it cost per year in the shops here? It doesn't look expensive." Yuan Fangguo asked.
"5,000 yuan a year, do you think it's expensive?" the boss said with a smile.
"So expensive?" Yuan Fangguo was surprised. These days, 5,000 yuan is enough to buy a small apartment in their hometown.
"It can't be helped. This is a popular shop, and luckily we make a lot of money with small profits," the boss said. "Over the course of the year, it's still doing okay."
"That's true. You guys have worked hard." Yuan Fangguo said.
"Hey, it's great to be able to open a noodle shop right in front of the university. I won't mention the hard work." The shop owner had just finished speaking when a young couple walked in. He quickly left Yuan Fangguo behind and started to run the business himself.
As I walked out of the noodle shop, a heat wave hit me. The weather in Chengdu at the end of August was not very cool.
Yuan Fangguo did not return to the dormitory, but chose to wander on the street. In his memory, this street was not much different from his previous life. Not far ahead was a bustling wholesale market.
The goods in the wholesale market are still cheaper than those sold in small shops.
Yuan Fangguo took a quick look at the price and suddenly understood a little bit.
After wandering around in the wholesale market for half an hour, he resolutely walked out of the wholesale market and hurried towards the school.
Twenty minutes after entering the school, Yuan Fangguo walked out of the campus again. The sky gradually darkened. While the wholesale market was still open, he decided to buy some small commodities to sell.
"Boss, if I buy a lot of things from you, can you give me a discount?" Yuan Fangguo asked with a mature look on his face.
The owner of the wholesale store was about to close the stall when he saw a young man holding a huge denim bag. He suddenly became alert. There are so many people who don't care about their lives these days. Some time ago, an electrical appliance store in the market was robbed by several young people.
"How much do you want?" the boss asked vigilantly.
"I want goods worth two hundred yuan, towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, etc..." Yuan Fangguo also noticed the shop owner's vigilance towards him, and as he spoke, he took out the money he had already prepared.
Even though Yuan Fangguo took out the money, the shop owner remained vigilant.
"Xiao Li, you and Lao Liu come over and help me." The shop owner called two shop assistants from the neighboring shop over.
The two guys were also a little alert.
Yuan Fangguo smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I'm a student at Bashu University and I just reported today."
"Are you a student?" The boss was surprised and looked incredulous.
Yuan Fangguo nodded and said, "Yes, I just reported here. My family is poor, so I want to earn some living expenses before school starts."
"Oh, another inspirational example." The shop owner's vigilance against Yuan Fangguo was reduced a lot because he had two more assistants on his left and right arms.
"Look, what brands do you want?" the shop owner asked with narrowed eyes.
"Give me the regular ones." After thinking about it, Yuan Fangguo followed the shop owner into the store.
