Chapter 271 High School
"It's beautiful, so beautiful!" Jiang Mi exclaimed with admiration. Now their Jiang family had produced a top scholar and a third-place scholar, which was such a joyous occasion. If her parents knew this news, they would be overjoyed.
Then Jiang Xuan walked over. He was wearing a red robe and looked like a groom. In addition, the two of them were handsome, and the girls present all blushed. What girl doesn't like a handsome and talented man?
"Oh my, the top scholar and the third-ranked scholar are actually from the same family, and they even own this soap shop. How lucky they are! Since this soap is also associated with the top scholar and the third-ranked scholar, we absolutely have to come and support them."
As a result, many people went into the shop to buy soap because of Jiang Xuan and Jiang Zhi. Jiang Mi knew that her two brothers were deliberately trying to get business for her, and she was both happy and touched.
"Second Brother, Third Brother, you don't need to do this. You're all destined for high office, so it's best not to get too involved with me. Otherwise, people will say you're also involved in business, and it's never a good thing for scholars to be associated with commerce."
"What's the big deal? It's just our family's small business. We earned our money honestly, without stealing or robbing. What can others say? We're upright and honest, so you don't need to think so much."
Jiang Xuan comforted Jiang Mi, which moved Jiang Mi even more. This is how a family considers each other's feelings.
The shop was very crowded and lively at the moment. Although many people had never used soap before, the scent and appearance alone were enough to satisfy them and give them a sense of novelty.
"Honey, you're really amazing. You can make any business you do so successful. It seems like we'll have to take over all the soap in the capital from now on."
Jiang Mi quickly shushed him, "Third Brother, keep your voice down. Our business has just started. If people hear you saying that, they might think we're arrogant."
Jiang Zhi obediently lowered his voice: "Of course! Our Honey is so capable, it's only a matter of time. In the future, when my second brother and I become high-ranking officials, we'll protect you and see who dares to bully you then!"
Jiang Mi now feels a strong sense of security. Jiang Zhi was talking about the future. They are only in high school now and haven't fully established themselves yet. The situation in Beijing is constantly changing. If they want to truly protect their family, they must climb up step by step.
Jiang Mi was overjoyed. Today was a special day, and they should celebrate it every year to commemorate it. Following Jiang Xuan's gaze, she saw Huo Ran standing not far away, looking in their direction. Standing alone in the bustling crowd, he seemed rather lonely.
Liu Min then walked over and said to Jiang Xuan and Jiang Zhi, "Congratulations, gentlemen."
Jiang Xuan and Jiang Zhi nodded and said they were happy for each other.
Jiang Xuan said politely, "Isn't your master coming over? He would like a cup of hot tea. The weather is getting warmer, and it's quite hot standing in the sun."
Liu Min knew that Jiang Xuan said that on purpose, but he just smiled. After all, the other party was his master's brother-in-law, and he couldn't afford to offend these two.
“My master was worried that his visit would affect Miss Jiang’s business. Seeing how well Miss Jiang’s business is doing, my master is very happy for her. That’s why he sent me to buy some to take back and try.”
Jiang Mi's expression turned somewhat strange: "Your master likes this too?"
Although men can use it too, the taste and shape she makes are what girls like, so it just feels a bit strange for men to use it.
Liu Min and Huo Ran had no idea what kind of business Jiang Mi was in. They thought she was selling wine, especially since the name sounded mysterious and unpredictable. It was very likely that it was a new wine brewed by Miss Jiang. However, the aroma of the wine was a bit unusual. But Miss Jiang was not an ordinary girl either.
"Yes, my master said that what Miss Jiang is selling must be good stuff, and we must buy it and try it." Taking this opportunity, Liu Min naturally had to praise his master a lot, not wanting to miss any chance.
"Alright, I'll have someone bring some to your master. You don't need to pay. I just don't know what flavor your master likes..."
Jiang Mi glanced at Huo Ran again and noticed that he was looking in their direction with a cautious expression.
Suddenly, I felt a little sorry for him.
Liu Min smiled and said, "Neither my master nor I know much about this. Why don't you trouble Miss Jiang to pick one for us? Whatever Miss Jiang chooses will definitely be good, and my master will like it too."
So Jiang Mi picked out the best and most expensive one for Liu Min. Looking at the exquisite box, Liu Min thought to himself that Miss Jiang was really good at doing business. Even a box was so beautiful and exquisite. However, the box looked like it was for girls and was a bit too girly.
"Thank you very much, Miss Jiang. My master will definitely like it."
Under the strange gazes of Jiang Xuan and Jiang Zhi, Liu Min carried the exquisite box to Huo Ran, only to find that Huo Ran also had a strange expression on his face.
"He must know what you're selling, right?" Jiang Zhi couldn't help but laugh. "It's good that you have the intention, but... never mind, as long as he likes it."
Jiang Mi, however, had a new idea: "That's right, soap doesn't necessarily have to be for women. Men can use it too. I can make some sandalwood scents, or scents that men like, and sell them. After all, soap beans are used by both men and women, and soap can be used by both."
Jiang Xuan and Jiang Zhi both expressed their support for Jiang Mi's idea.
“Our Jiang Mi is really clever. She has come up with a new business idea in such a short time. Once you make it, your brothers must be the first to use it. We will tell you how it is after we use it.”
Jiang Mi nodded repeatedly: "Okay, but you have to tell the truth and not just flatter me."
"Of course, we definitely have to tell the truth, otherwise it will affect our business."
Jiang Mi nodded in satisfaction. Now her business would reach a wider audience, and perhaps even high-ranking officials and wealthy people would come to buy her soap.
Business was so busy that they didn't close until very late. After all, it was the first day, so Jiang Mi gave everyone some tips. The employees had never encountered such a good manager before. After happily accepting the money, they swore their loyalty to Jiang Mi. Jiang Mi knew that only by being generous to her subordinates could she gain truly dedicated and loyal people. At the very least, if she paid them enough, these people wouldn't betray her for money.
When Jiang Mi got home that evening, she started doing the math and found that she had earned a decent amount that day, which might be because it was only the first day.
