"I knew it! There's no such thing as a doctor this good. Shi Qian is just naturally beautiful!" Fu Xiuhan leaned closer to look at Shi Qian's face and was overwhelmed by her stunning looks.
When Song Qi heard Fu Xiuhan say "our Shi Qian," he was filled with rage. The relationship between the two had progressed rapidly in a short period of time, and Fu Xiuhan's attitude towards Shi Qian was much better than his own.
Meng Qing doesn't check his phone often and was unaware that something like this had happened on the forum. He took advantage of his lunch break to delete the post.
Such a pointless discussion shouldn't even exist.
Before going dark, Meng Qing saved all of Shi Qian's photos. Although it was a bit of an exaggeration, Meng Qing still thought Shi Qian was pretty.
After posting anonymously last night, Zhang Ming watched as the post's popularity skyrocketed, with a bunch of people mocking and ridiculing Shi Qian, making him grin from ear to ear.
"Trying to fight me? This is just the beginning."
After waking up, Zhang Ming logged back onto the forum and found that his previous posts had been deleted. It must have been Shi Qian who complained. Did he think that was the end of it? Impossible!
This is just the appetizer; the real explosion is yet to come.
Finally, the weekend arrived. Shi Qian got up early, carried his schoolbag, and left the school. He first booked a room at a five-star hotel not far from the shops, changed into a flashy outfit, and piled on all sorts of expensive jewelry, looking every bit the nouveau riche.
Today, Shi Qian is going to play the role of a spoiled brat. All the shops in the suburbs are up for sale, and Shi Qian plans to buy them all.
If that were the case, the commotion would be too great, so to avoid unnecessary price increases, he came up with a solution.
Today, he's going to pretend to be a clueless, rich, nouveau riche from out of town.
Shi Qian had already scouted the route last night, so this time he took a taxi directly to his destination.
At 10 a.m., only a small portion of the shops were open, and there were few customers; it was very quiet.
Shi Qian walked to the first open shop, a jewelry store. The owner was dozing in a chair, and there were no customers in the store.
Shi Qian strode in with great fanfare, casually picked up a string of beads, and asked in a non-local accent, "Boss, how much is this?"
The shop owner was startled when someone suddenly appeared. He opened his eyes, glanced at Shi Qian, and simply sat up without going to greet him, assuming it was just some curious passerby.
Shi Qian calmly pretended to turn around a few times, nodding repeatedly, looking very interested.
The shop owner noticed that Shi Qian was so young and dressed like he was from out of town.
He's rich, but he might be a fool who's easily taken advantage of.
He hasn't opened for business for more than half a year. He comes here every day just to kill time. There are hardly any customers in this area, so most of the shop owners have put up "For Sale" signs and haven't opened for business for a long time.
"Young man, you have a good eye! This is our best-selling item!" The shop owner immediately showered him with compliments, knowing from the young man's easily swayed expression that he was a pushover.
"How much?"
"One hundred each, but if you buy a lot, I can give you an even better price!"
Upon hearing about the price being low, Shi Qian feigned impatience and said, "No need for a price reduction, just sell it the way it is. It's not like I can't afford it!"
The shop owner was delighted to hear this; it looked like he was about to make a big order today. "How many do you want?"
Shi Qian, seemingly unconcerned, walked past a display case, pointed casually, and said, "Wrap all of these up for me."
"Okay, okay, just a moment, let me calculate the price for you!"
The shop owner happily went around behind the cashier, came out with a calculator, and started typing away.
Actually, these things aren't worth much; a string of them usually sells for only thirty or forty yuan. But he was outrageous and doubled the price.
The shop owner was still tapping on the calculator when Shi Qian, seemingly impatient, asked, "10,000, is that enough?"
In reality, these bracelets only cost a few dollars to buy. The price is inflated by making up all sorts of reasons, such as protecting wealth, ensuring safety, and maintaining health.
As soon as Shi Qian spoke, the shop owner immediately agreed, "That's enough, that's enough, I'll wrap them all up for you!"
Shi Qian watched the shop owner pack the items, then casually asked, "Are you selling this shop? How much?"
The shop owner hesitated for a moment before saying a number, "One hundred thousand?"
In reality, a shop in this area can only sell for a maximum of 60,000 to 70,000 yuan. It's a wasteland in the suburbs, so it's not worth much. But even if they ask for 50,000 yuan, it's hard to sell. Ordinary people don't need it, and rich people don't care about it.
Do you usually have many customers here?
"Lots! Lots! It's just that it's the off-season these days, so there aren't many people."
Shi Qian pretended to be innocent and said, "My dad gave me some money to invest. I think your place is very good. How about this, you help me ask other shop owners if they are selling. Each shop costs 100,000, and I'll buy them all together. I'll give you 150,000 to buy this one. Consider the extra as a fee for your hard work. I'm too lazy to go to each one one by one. How about it?"
The shop owner was a smart man and understood Shi Qian's meaning immediately. He knew all the merchants on the street, and it was just a matter of a word. He could make a profit by acting as the middleman and earn 2,000 yuan from each household as a service fee. It was a sure-fire business, so of course he could do it!
“But this price…” The shop owner wanted to raise the price, but Shi Qian interrupted him.
"If it's too much trouble, then forget it. I don't necessarily have to buy this place." Shi Qian shrugged indifferently.
"Don't want it? How can that be?" The shop owner was anxious.
"Okay! Deal! I'll handle this." The shop owner agreed without hesitation.
