Chapter 1
What kind of sponsor is the most popular?
The answer is naturally the one that transfers money quickly.
Boss Fang Jingfang is undoubtedly such a financial sponsor.
As he had a busy day yesterday, Jiang Qi slept until noon. It was already past eleven when he was fully awake and lying on the bed playing with his mobile phone.
Then Jiang Qi was pleasantly surprised to find that the sponsor had transferred the money.
The balance plus the deposit, calculated at 276 yuan per person, totaled 23,736 yuan for 86 people, which, added up to the exact amount, appeared in Jiang Qi's bank account.
Jiang Qi immediately checked the side quest and found that the quest progress had increased by 23736, which shows that this money is income recognized by the game.
Fang Jing is a straightforward financial sponsor, so Jiang Qi naturally has to be a straightforward boss as well.
Except for Old John who was a little slacking off yesterday, everyone worked very seriously. Jiang Qi readily transferred 2,000 yuan to each of the three people who were receiving salaries.
Jiang Wanwan and Liu Lan accepted the transfer within seconds. Jiang Wanwan sent Jiang Qi a flying kiss emoticon, and Liu Lan sent him a kowtow emoticon to thank the boss.
Then when Jiang Qi checked the linear task again, he found that the progress had decreased by 6,000.
The evaluation of the game is indeed very strict. It must be pure profit, and even the bonuses given to employees have to be deducted from the profits.
Jiang Qi, who had just received money from his sponsor, wanted to lie on the bed and play with his phone. He was too lazy to even turn over. If he hadn't been scheduled to take Huang Fugui and the other two to the street to buy things this afternoon, Jiang Qi wouldn't even want to get out of bed today.
Is there anything more enjoyable than spending the day in bed?
The body is made of iron and the bed is made of magnets. Lying on the bed during the vacation is the greatest respect for the vacation.
Seeing that it was almost lunch time, Jiang Qi decided to send a message to ask Huang Fugui what he wanted to eat for lunch. If everyone didn't mind, they could order takeout. Jiang Qi really didn't want to go out to eat.
Before I could finish editing the message, the doorbell rang.
The doorbell of Jiang Qi's house hasn't rung in several years. The property management usually knocks on the door when they come, acquaintances will call in advance, and relatives will get the keys directly.
Jiang Qi didn't react when the doorbell rang for the first time. He had forgotten that he had a doorbell at home.
"Who is it?" Jiang Qi got up reluctantly and opened the door.
Outside the door is Wang Erya.
Wang Erya was wearing a neat shirt and trousers, with a ponytail and an apple hairpin in her hair.
Jiang Qi looked at himself in the full-length mirror in his living room again.
She was wearing wrinkled pajamas and had walked out barefoot without even wearing slippers. Her hair looked like it had gone through a war last night, with one part sticking up in the air and the other part lying down.
Wang Erya didn't think there was anything wrong with Jiang Qi's look. She smiled and said, "Boss, my uncle has cooked lunch and it's expected to be ready in 20 minutes. Let me come down and tell you to change your clothes and go upstairs to eat later."
Jiang Qi nodded: "Next time you can ask Old John to send me a message directly."
"My uncle was worried that you weren't awake yet, and your phone was on silent, so I couldn't see any messages or receive any calls, so he asked me to come down and ring the doorbell to wake you up."
Huang Fugui thought very carefully.
"Okay, I got it. Erya, you go back first." Jiang Qi closed the door decisively and started to wash up.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Qi, looking refreshed, went upstairs to prepare for dinner.
Huang Fugui's sudden cooking must be related to the new memories he gained when he was promoted yesterday.
Jiang Qi went upstairs to ask, and found out that it was true.
Huang Fugui, who only has memories related to the God of Cooking, cannot cook.
Because when he became the God of Cooking, he was already a country gentleman, no longer a working man. He had servants and cooks at home, so he didn't need to cook unless he was cooking vegetable noodles.
But Huang Fugui was different when he recalled all the memories about the peddler.
As a wife working as a maid in a wealthy family, Huang Fugui was away from home all year round, had to go from door to door selling goods and take care of her young son. She was a poor citizen, but she knew how to cook.
It turns out that Huang Fugui is a pretty good cook.
This is reasonable. Even if he came from a parallel ancient time, all chefs in the world have special effects except that the dishes they cook do not glow. If he is a culinary idiot but can make vegetable noodles with birth buffs out of thin air, this is outrageous.
The lunch dishes were simple: stir-fried beef fillet with green peppers, seaweed egg soup, fried egg with leek and stir-fried shredded potatoes.
The beef tenderloin had been marinated in advance and coated with starch, so it tasted very tender and smooth, and won unanimous praise from everyone.
Jiang Qi believes that this dish can become an excellent signature dish even in a small restaurant. It can be seen that Huang Fugui is quite talented in cooking. Even if he does not become a DM, being a chef is also a good career path for him.
Fang Jing had someone deliver the oven that Huang Fugui won yesterday. It was a 45L large capacity oven. Huang Fugui, who had found his cooking skills, was very interested in this kind of kitchenware that he had never used before. He had studied the oven recipe for a whole morning and expected that Jiang Qi would have freshly baked desserts to eat for many days in the future.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Qi looked at Wang Erya who was cleaning the plate and eating rice with the broth of stir-fried beef fillet with green peppers, and asked: "Erya, we will go shopping later. Have you decided what to buy?"
Although Jiang Qi had told everyone in advance to make a list for him, no one made a list for him because he was too busy during the past two days.
Wang Erya was eating while thinking, she swallowed a big mouthful of rice and said, "Boss, I want to buy a new skirt."
"A nice new dress like Sister Wanwan's."
Jiang Qi could understand Wang Erya's desire to buy skirts. His sister Jiang Bing and cousin Jiang Wanwan were both skirt lovers. The wardrobe in Jiang Bing's room and the wardrobe in her parents' master bedroom were all filled with her skirts. She was the type who only wore skirts in summer.
Jiang Bing not only wears skirts in summer, but also in autumn. She is very stubborn and wears skirts too. When it gets cold, she puts on a windbreaker over her skirt. If it gets even colder, she just endures it. When Jiang Bing takes off her skirt, it is basically time to wear winter clothes.
"Okay, buy a skirt." Jiang Qi nodded in agreement, "and buy two pairs of sandals, and another pair of sneakers."
Because Jiang Qi had money this time, he didn't need to go to the wholesale market to buy clothes, but took the bus directly to the old pedestrian street. Jiang Bing bought most of her clothes in the specialty stores on the old pedestrian street, and went to the mall if she couldn't find the right one.
Wang Erya has small feet and can only wear size 34 shoes. Size 35 is too big for her, so she has to go to a children's clothing store to buy shoes or clothes.
There are only a few children's clothing stores whose brands Jiang Qi recognizes, and he can always find a suitable one by visiting each one.
Children's skirts are actually in line with Wang Erya's aesthetic taste. Maybe it's because children like colorful and bright things. Children's skirts are obviously more fancy than adult ones. Wang Erya likes all of them and thinks they look good no matter which one she tries on.
If Jiang Wanwan, Qin Can and Liu Lan were present, they might be able to offer some constructive suggestions, but the three people currently present are not very reliable when it comes to judging clothes.
Old John is a big fan of white shirts and black pants. The few sets of clothes that Jiang Qi bought for him were all white shirts and black pants. He is not interested in colorful things.
Huang Fugui is a big fan of colorful things. In some ways, his aesthetic taste is similar to Wang Erya's. The more colorful the clothes are, the better they think they are. He thinks anything Wang Erya particularly likes is good-looking.
Jiang Qi...
Jiang Qi thinks his aesthetic taste is pretty good.
At least he felt that a girl with dark and thin skin like Wang Erya was not very suitable for wearing overly colorful clothes, such as pink dresses, bright red dresses, and purple dresses that looked like Disney princess dresses.
Jiang Qi thought that the black, blue and brown dresses that Wang Erya wore in the interview were more beautiful. But Wang Erya didn't like these colors, and the salesperson was blindly buying them, which made Jiang Qi doubt her own aesthetic taste and she didn't dare to speak.
In the end, Jiang Qi decided to let Wang Erya pick two pieces by herself. As Jiang Qi expected, Wang Erya chose the pink dress and the purple Disney princess dress.
Jiang Qi looked at the prices: 1188 and 899.
Jiang Qi: ???
Is this reasonable? These are just two children's clothes. Is this reasonable?
He himself has never bought such expensive clothes!
"Is there a discount?" Jiang Qi felt it would be outrageous if there was no discount.
"Of course." The salesperson said with a smile, "We are currently offering a 30% discount on one piece, and a 40% discount on two pieces. If you are a diamond member here, you can enjoy an additional 15% discount."
"But since these two items are new products of the season, we can only offer a maximum discount of 20% on new products of the season. I can decide to give you another 100 yuan discount, so the total price is 1569.6 yuan."
Jiang Qi felt that he couldn't accept this price.
The main reason was that he felt that these two skirts were not very suitable for Wang Erya.
But Wang Erya really likes it.
Everyone was a child once, and the aesthetic tastes of children and adults are inherently different. Jiang Qi doesn't want to be arbitrarily and preclude Wang Erya from buying something she likes just because of the difference in aesthetic tastes between him and Wang Erya.
Jiang Qi gave Huang Fugui a look, indicating that it was time to use his talent as a peddler.
You can bargain in specialty stores, especially those that are not located in shopping malls. Jiang Qi is very aware of this.
Huang Fugui began his performance.
Huang Fugui showed an expression that said, "I am actually very satisfied with these two skirts, but I really cannot accept the price." He said with some embarrassment, "This price is really a bit too high. How about Qinghe and we go to other stores to have a look?"
Wang Erya’s concept of money was limited to breakfast and lunch. She was dumbfounded when she heard that these two skirts would cost more than 200 bowls of beef noodles.
"Let's go to other stores, uncle." Wang Erya was reluctant, but she was also reluctant to carry more than 200 bowls of beef noodles on her body.
Seeing this, the salesperson quickly advised: "Alas, the price of good children's clothing is so high now. Although the price is a bit expensive, the quality is good, the fabric is good, and the child is comfortable to wear. Your child is not the kind of child who will outgrow it in half a year or a year."
"It fits you perfectly. It's such a great style. I see you all like it and are very satisfied with it. It would be a shame to miss it."
“But this price is really a bit…” Huang Fugui shook his head.
"I really can't adjust the price for you. The price and discount are all required by the brand. But if you really want it, I can..."
"Can……"
“…”
Huang Fugui and the salesperson started a tug of war.
Twenty minutes later, Huang Fugui bought three skirts for 1475.2, a pink skirt, a purple skirt and the black skirt that Jiang Qi was most satisfied with.
The preferential plan finally negotiated was so outrageous that Jiang Qi began to doubt his life.
During the tug-of-war with Huang Fugui, the salesperson came up with a third preferential plan, which was said to be a secret offer to Huang Fugui that had just ended a few days ago.
Recharge 1,000 yuan and enjoy 40% off on any item, but the item cannot be deducted from the card.
The remaining black dress was not a new model, so it was priced at 599 yuan at a 30% discount, and the one priced at 899 yuan was priced at an 80% discount. The salesperson then secretly used a diamond member price card to increase the discount, bringing the total price to 968 yuan.
After deducting the 968 yuan from the card, there is still 32 yuan left. Ignoring this 32 yuan, the total amount spent is 1,475.2 yuan.
Jiang Qi didn't quite understand the whole bargaining process. He just felt that Huang Fugui and the salesperson ended a duel with swords and blood in a place he couldn't see. Huang Fugui successfully challenged the BOSS, and the BOSS offered an additional discount plan.
Is this the power of a bargaining expert?
Is this the ability of a professional peddler with more than ten years of experience?
With Huang Fugui, a bargaining expert, Jiang Qi only needed to ask the price for the rest of the shopping, and Huang Fugui took care of the rest. They bargained all the way from the pedestrian street to the mall, bargaining at all specialty stores and counters.
Anyway, in a small place like Xun City, all the specialty stores on the street have been fake for more than ten years, and there are only a few genuine products in the entire city. Although there has been progress in recent years, Jiang Qi doesn't go shopping, so who knows whether it is a real store or a fake one.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s real or fake, as long as the quality is good enough.
After an afternoon of shopping, Old John bought two new sets of high-quality white shirts and black trousers, two pairs of sneakers and a discounted old man's shirt.
Although I don’t know if Old John would wear it, but at 29 yuan a piece the material is pretty good, so I decided to buy it.
Although Huang Fugui wanted to buy colorful clothes, the men's clothing suitable for his age limited his creativity. In the end, Huang Fugui bought a pink shirt, a pair of sports pants with fluorescent green stripes, a few ordinary clothes, two pairs of sneakers and a pair of sandals.
In addition to the three skirts, Jiang Qi bought Wang Erya a pair of sneakers, two pairs of sandals and a nightgown.
After buying all the clothes, Jiang Qi took a special look at the side quests. The progress did not drop. It was obvious that the money spent on the card characters was not counted as store expenses, but only as Jiang Qi's personal expenses.
By counting it as personal expenses, Jiang Qi can spend money with confidence.
Huang Fugui bought a full set of baking tools and also bought himself an abacus. He might have wanted to relive his days as a peddler and play with the abacus when he had nothing to do.
Old John went to the bookstore and bought a stack of advanced mathematics postgraduate entrance examination materials without telling him why. Although Jiang Qi didn't understand, he still bought it for him.
What if Old John wants to take the postgraduate entrance examination?
Jiang Qi had already given his postgraduate entrance examination materials to his juniors, and it was impossible for him to bring back such a thick stack. He didn't pass the exam anyway, and although he later said that he was struggling with whether to take the exam again, he didn't want to take it again in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have given the materials away directly.
Wang Erya did not buy anything extra. She spent the most money on clothes. Wang Erya always remembered that she had not yet worked for her boss to make money for him. Before she successfully worked for Jiang Qi for free, Wang Erya didn't feel comfortable asking for anything more.
It was when Jiang Qi passed by a toy store selling dolls that he remembered that most little girls liked dolls, and Wang Erya must like them too. The toy store happened to be having a sale, and the cheapest doll was only 58 yuan and quite pretty, so Jiang Qi bought one for Wang Erya.
Finally, the few of them went to the supermarket and bought a lot of fruits and daily necessities, and returned home with full loads in time for dinner.
Huang Fugui has just rediscovered his cooking skills and is very enthusiastic about making meals. It is expected that everyone will not eat out for a long time.
On the way home, Jiang Qi happened to meet Jiang Xiaohong at the gate of the community.
Jiang Xiaohong came to deliver food, holding an enamel pot filled with beef stewed with potatoes.
Jiang Xiaohong was a little surprised to see Jiang Qi holding tissues in one hand and fruits in the other: "Xiao Qi, did you go to the supermarket to buy things?"
"Brother Huang, Teacher Yue, you are here too, you must be going together." Jiang Xiaohong said with a smile, and finally turned her gaze to Wang Erya, "You should be Qinghe."
Wang Erya said to Jiang Xiaohong, "Hello, sister."
Wang Erya calls all men and women older than him brothers and sisters.
Jiang Xiaohong was so happy that she smiled brightly. She didn't know how many years it had been since she was called "sister". She was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling: "Oh, Brother Huang, your niece is really good at talking. She even called me "sister". I feel a little embarrassed."
"I am Jiang Qi's aunt. According to seniority, Qinghe, you can't call me sister. Just call me Aunt Jiang. No wonder others say that nieces look like their uncles. Brother Huang, your niece looks so much like you." Jiang Xiaohong started to lie with her eyes open.
"Aunt, why did you think of delivering food today?" Jiang Qi asked.
Ever since Jiang Wanwan came to help in the store, Jiang Xiaohong has been able to learn about Jiang Qi's recent situation from Jiang Wanwan every day. She also knows that Jiang Qi has been very busy these days and basically eats at a private restaurant near the community and has never had any food delivered.
Although the elders all agree that the food outside is not as clean as the food cooked at home, in Jiang Xiaohong's opinion, the food in the private restaurant near the community is equivalent to the food cooked at home. Although it is a bit expensive, it is clean and delicious.
Everyone is familiar with each other, and Jiang Xiaohong trusts Master Fang very much.
"It's that brat Wen Luo. I had something to do this morning and didn't go home to cook lunch. He and your uncle ate noodles cooked by your uncle. You know your uncle's cooking skills. He can even make noodles mushy."
"I've already told Wen Luo that we'll have dinner at home tonight, and I'll come back in the afternoon to make a big meal, stewed beef with potatoes. This brat, he called me right after I finished cooking and said he was going out to eat with his classmates in the evening."
"I'm on a diet and I don't eat at night, and your uncle also needs to eat less meat. This dish won't be as delicious tomorrow if it's heated up as it was the day before. I thought you're having a day off today, so I'll quickly deliver the food in advance to save you from ordering takeout or eating out." Jiang Xiaohong saw that Jiang Qi and the others had their hands full and couldn't free up, so she simply accompanied them back and delivered the food to their home.
After Jiang Xiaohong left, Jiang Qi checked Wang Erya's star upgrade progress.
70/100.
Haha, woman.
Jiang Qi felt that if Fang Jing couldn't release the team-building video within 15 days, she could just take Wang Erya out and call her sister.
Just find 30 women like Jiang Xiaohong, who can be overjoyed, smile from ear to ear, and contribute their love value on the spot for a heartfelt call of "sister".
It couldn't be simpler.
