Chapter 54
Wang Xiao didn't like Qin Xiang before, but now Qin Xiang is definitely the first among the people she hates the most.
It's so annoying.
In the last monthly exam, Wang Xiao originally thought that Qin Xiang didn't study hard and would not do well in the exam. However, Qin Xiang directly ranked third in the whole school, which really made Wang Xiao vomit.
The teacher said that this mock exam is very important. If Qin Xiang can do well this time, then she will definitely pass the preliminary exam at the beginning of next month, and then her admission to university is a sure thing.
Qin Xiang walked to her seat facing Wang Xiao's creepy gaze, took out her admission ticket and pen, and waited for the exam.
It is said that the first mock exam this time will be set by the city, with a unified ranking, so you can clearly see where your score ranks in the city.
Qin Xiang knew that she had not studied hard enough recently and did not expect to do well in the exam, but the college entrance examination was only two months away, so she should really focus on preparing for the exam.
While waiting for the exam, Qin Xiang couldn't help but think of her shop. If the two girls worked hard, she would indeed have time to study. There was no end to making money, so she had to study hard for the next two months.
While I was daydreaming, the teacher came in with the test paper. It turned out to be an acquaintance, Teacher Qi, Wang Xiao's homeroom teacher.
When he saw Qin Xiang, Teacher Qi's face froze, then he lowered his head and took the test papers to distribute them.
The mock exams also mirrored the Gaokao schedule, but to save time, unlike the Gaokao, where each subject was tested in the morning, they combined core and secondary subjects. On the first day, we tested Chinese and biology in the morning, followed by math in the afternoon. On the second day, we tested physics and politics in the morning, followed by chemistry and English in the afternoon. It was a packed schedule, covering seven subjects in two days.
Qin Xiang had a solid foundation, so she didn't find the exam difficult. When she was about to go home after the exam, Ning Sumei called her, "Qin Xiang, come here. I have some papers here. Take them and do them."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiang knew that this was the question set by the school during this period. She responded and followed. There were students everywhere at this time, and they were curious when they saw Qin Xiang. Many people didn't know her.
Wang Xiao couldn't help but curl his lips, "Flatterer."
Miao Huihui snorted at the top of her lungs, "That person who flatters others can get third place in the school, but you, who flatters others, probably won't even get 30th place."
Wang Xiao's face darkened immediately. "Miao Huihui, you're not done yet, are you?"
Ever since her lie was exposed last time, Miao Huihui had been acting like a psychopath. She couldn't bear not to say something sarcastic. What the hell was that? As if she didn't know that Miao Huihui was also jealous of Qin Xiang, she was just showing it. She really thought she was a good person.
Miao Huihui glared, "Hey, listen to what this guy who caught his own brother cheating on his wife is saying."
The people around burst into laughter, and Wang Xiao's face looked extremely ugly.
Yes, ever since that time, Miao Huihui has been using this matter to provoke her at every turn, and it never stops.
Wang Xiao felt so upset. Her family scolded her and her classmates laughed at her. Why was her life so difficult?
While they were making a fuss, Qin Xiang had already followed Ning Sumei to the office.
Ning Sumei took out a file bag and said, "Here are all the recent papers, some from the city and some from the province. In short, go back and do your best. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."
Qin Xiang felt a headache when she felt the thickness, but she also knew that this was the only way to go. She couldn't do it without doing the exercises. She hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, Teacher Ning."
"You're so polite." Ning Sumei hesitated, "How did you do on the exam?"
Qin Xiang thought for a moment and asked, "Is it okay?"
Although the review time was short, she did review and she felt that the difficulty of the questions was not too bad.
Ning Sumei was surprised. "Do you think mathematics is easy?"
Qin Xiang frowned, "Is it okay?"
Ning Sumei breathed a sigh of relief. "That's not bad. The math difficulty this time is about the same as last year's. If you think it's okay, then that's good."
Qin Xiang was stunned. Although she did not take the college entrance examination last year, she knew that the mathematics questions in the college entrance examination were very difficult. Many people who took the college entrance examination only scored 30 to 50 points, and 60 points was even considered a high score.
However, Qin Xiang has always been strong in mathematics, and he has done so many Olympiad math problems in later generations, so he did not find this level of difficulty that difficult.
Teacher Ning felt relieved, but still gave a serious instruction, "Don't delay your studies. If you fall out of the top three in the school this time, come back and study hard."
Ning Sumei was also under a lot of pressure during the last monthly exam. After all, this student had a special status and was recruited by her. Several teachers who were unfamiliar with Qin Xiang were secretly waiting to see what would happen. Unexpectedly, Qin Xiang directly scored third in the school, which made everyone speechless.
As long as Qin Xiang can get into university, she will have nothing to worry about.
Qin Xiang nodded, "No problem."
Ning Sumei glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Why don't we go to the teacher's house for dinner? We can have a good chat."
Qin Xiang thought about it and felt that it was okay, so she went out and said goodbye to Mi Hongjun who came to pick her up, and then followed Ning Sumei to the family compound.
Ning Sumei asked, "Is that your boyfriend?"
Qin Xiang was stunned for a moment, then realized she was talking about Mi Hongjun, and quickly shook her head, "No, it's a little brother I met when I went to Hangzhou before. He's a good guy and works with me now. He knew my third brother didn't come back, so he came to pick me up."
"I see. He doesn't look that old."
Qin Xiang nodded. "He's only eighteen this year, and he's the only one in the family. He's a nice young man."
"That's good." Ning Sumei originally wanted to say that it would be nice for Qin Xiang to find a partner like this, but thinking that the college entrance examination is approaching, it is better not to talk about such things. Having a partner is a waste of time, and it would be bad if it affects Qin Xiang's studies.
Ning Sumei was the principal after all, and she was allocated a two-bedroom, one-living room house in the school staff quarters. The kitchen was a public kitchen at the end of the corridor, and so was the toilet.
When she entered the door, Ning Sumei's husband, Teacher Xu, had already returned and was preparing dinner. When he saw Qin Xiang coming, he hurried out to buy some other things.
Teacher Ning’s children are not around, so the old couple usually live here, which is quite spacious.
Teacher Ning said, "Please sit down. I'll go see if there's anything to eat."
Qin Xiang was unwilling to sit down, so she said, "I'll help you."
So the two of them went to the public kitchen and chatted while cooking.
The family members of several teachers nearby were also cooking. Seeing Qin Xiang, they couldn't help but ask a few more questions, but Ning Sumei was usually a very serious person. After a few awkward chats, the aunties stopped asking.
The food was served and the three of them sat down.
Teacher Xu was a little curious. "I heard from your teacher Ning that you are now self-employed. How is it going?"
It was obvious that Teacher Ning was also a little curious and couldn't help but look at her.
Qin Xiang briefly explained, "I'm working in wholesale in the county. The young man who came to pick me up is helping me manage that business. Also, I just opened a clothing store in the provincial capital. It's been open for a few days now. I hired two salespeople to look after it, and my third brother is also there. I don't know about the future, but it's doing well right now."
Hearing her say this, Teacher Xu actually praised her. Teacher Ning was more concerned and still worried that being a self-employed person would affect her studies. "I think if you work hard, you can get into Capital University or Tsinghua University. Why don't you work hard for the next two months?"
Qin Xiang smiled, "Teacher Ning, I will definitely have to spend a lot of time studying in the next two months, but I will decide which university I can apply to when the time comes. I want to study fashion design, so I have to see which school is more suitable for me."
Teacher Ning knew that she worked in the clothing industry, so he wasn't surprised to hear that she wanted to study fashion, but he felt sorry.
People in this world say that if you are good at math, physics and chemistry, you will not be afraid to travel around the world. With Qin Xiang's level of math, if he studies math, he may be able to become a scientist in the future.
But I just like the clothing industry.
Teacher Ning said helplessly, "No matter what you learn, as long as you learn it well and it's useful, that's fine."
Qin Xiang nodded, "I think so too. I want to go into the clothing industry, gain more experience and learn more skills. Maybe in the future I can even start my own factory to design and produce clothes."
Hearing this, Teacher Ning laughed and said, "Teacher believes you can do it."
Of course, she still hopes that their Qingshui County No. 1 Middle School can produce a student who can be admitted to Tsinghua University or Capital University. What an honor that would be.
It's a pity that the teaching staff of their school is still too poor. It has been seven or eight years since the resumption of the college entrance examination, but there is not a single student from Capital University or Hua University. There is a Wang Junsheng who is from a famous university in the capital, but he was still caught as a thief.
The principal was willing to let Qin Xiang readmit the school because Wang Junsheng had left the school.
After dinner, it was still early outside, so Qin Xiang and Teacher Ning walked around the campus, then said goodbye and went back.
Qin Xiang has to return to the provincial capital early tomorrow morning, so time is quite tight.
When I arrived at the courtyard, I saw several people at the door. When they saw Qin Xiang coming, they all looked over.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but frown. She didn't expect that her elder brother and sister-in-law would come again.
Qin Xiang went over and said to Mi Hongjun who was blocking the door, "If irrelevant people come in the future, don't even open the door. What if they have bad intentions?"
Mi Hongjun glanced at the Qin Jun couple warily and nodded, "Sister Xiangxiang, I'll remember that."
As they were about to go in and close the door, Qin Jun hurriedly stopped Qin Xiang with a smile on his face, "Xiangxiang, your sister-in-law and I came from far away, won't you let us in? Look, it's almost dark..."
Tanaka Mei beside her nodded hopefully, "Yes, yes."
Qin Xiang raised an eyebrow and looked at them. "What does it have to do with me? What does it have to do with me that you are willing to come to the county so late at night? I have made it very clear before that I have severed ties with you. You are here just to make me unhappy, right?"
"No, no." Tian Zhongmei frowned and looked at Qin Xiang, "Look, you are a boss now. It's not good for your brother and sister-in-law to farm in the countryside, right? How about letting your brother and I help you? At the very least, you can leave your work in the county to us. It's much better than leaving it to outsiders, right?"
Mi Hongjun was immediately treated as an outsider and became unhappy. "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I'm dead?"
Tian Zhongmei ignored Mi Hongjun completely. She was dreaming. Even if bones are broken, siblings are still connected. It was okay when Qin Xiang was setting up a stall before, but now that he is doing wholesale, isn't it normal for them as brothers and sisters to come and help?
Tian Zhongmei: "Xiangxiang, let me tell you, outsiders are not good enough, they are not reliable, not as reliable as brothers and sisters. As long as you are willing to leave it to me and your brother, your brother and I will definitely do a good job for you."
Qin Jun agreed, "That's right."
The last time they came, not only were they humiliated, but they were also detained in the Public Security Bureau for a long time. When they returned, they embarrassed their parents. They did corrupt Qin Xiang's mind, but they also had the same intention of taking advantage of her.
They originally wanted Lian Fengying to come to Qin Xiang again to persuade her.
But Qin Xiang really did what she said and never returned home since she left for the New Year. Their father, Qin Baotian, was also a fool. He even told them not to come to see Qin Xiang and kept a close eye on Lian Fengying. They couldn't find a chance to coax their mother out.
A few days ago, Wang Xiao suddenly found them secretly and said that the school was going to have an exam and Qin Xiang would definitely come back, so the couple came.
He was being humble in order to clear up previous misunderstandings and to bring over some of the county's businesses so he could make money.
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. Qin Xiang looked at them sarcastically and said, "You can go back and take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror to see what you are made of. I would rather throw this business away than give it to you. Get out."
After Qin Xiang finished speaking, she closed the door.
Qin Jun and Tian Zhongmei were unable to dodge and were hit on the nose by the door. They covered their noses in pain. Tian Zhongmei said angrily, "Why is Qin Xiang like this?"
What a piece of shit.
Qin Jun was naturally unhappy and gritted his teeth, "What should I do? Why is she so stubborn? I, as her eldest brother, have already apologized to her, but she won't even give me the slightest bit of face."
The two were just thinking about what to do tonight when they heard an old lady's voice, sternly saying, "Those two, what are you doing?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Qin Xiang froze, and then pulled Tanaka Mei and ran quickly to the other end of the alley.
"The public security here is too bad. Aren't they cracking down on thieves? Why aren't these petty thieves being caught?" Old Mrs. Liu was worried and hurried over to knock on the door. "Xiao Qin, are you home?"
Qin Xiang was startled and hurried out, "Auntie Liu, why are you here?"
Old Mrs. Liu then told him what she had just seen, "Don't tell me they know your family has money and are just after your money. You better be careful."
Qin Xiang was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Okay, I get it, but it was probably my brother and sister-in-law from my mother's family just now. I ignored them, so you don't have to be nice to them in the future."
"I know what you said. Go and have a rest." Old Mrs. Liu likes to go out for a walk after dinner now. She feels so happy to listen to the compliments of other old ladies.
There are so many old ladies in the county, but which one can make money every day like her? One dollar a day, which means thirty dollars a month.
Qin Xiang closed the door and went back. Mi Hongjun had already opened a box. "Sister Xiangxiang, I need to reconcile the account with you."
Qin Xiang suddenly had a headache. "Sorry for the accounts before showing them to me. I have to study first."
After saying that, he hurried back to the house. Mi Hongjun scratched his head and couldn't help sighing. This opportunity he had found wasted again. Thinking that Qin Xiang was indeed very busy, Mi Hongjun resigned himself to his fate and quickly reconciled the accounts. Qin Xiang was going back to the provincial capital early tomorrow morning, so he had to check the accounts clearly.
Fortunately, Qin Xiang had set the rule that orders should be placed with a deposit, otherwise after Qin Xiang took away so much money, he would not have enough money to cover the order.
There are more stalls selling clothes in the market now, and with everyone competing, business is indeed not as good as before, and the amount of goods he sells has also decreased a lot.
But there is no way around it. Good designs are expensive and hard to sell in the countryside. Anyway, in Qin Xiang's words, just make the money as long as you can.
There is definitely some profit to be made, it’s just a matter of how much.
Qin Xiang was not idle either. Although she had just finished her exam during the day, the many papers in front of her were enough to keep her busy for a while.
She also found some problems in the exams over the past two days, and she has to fill in the gaps. Although she doesn't have a strong obsession with getting into a particularly good university, who doesn't want to be number one?
Qin Xiang studied until ten o'clock. Mi Hongjun came and knocked on the door. Qin Xiang stretched and came out. "Is it right?"
Mi Hongjun handed over the account book, which was really well written. It clearly showed how much money came in and how much money went out.
After a simple check, Qin Xiang put away the profit and said, "Order less next time. Ask if anyone is willing to take over. After all, it's just a channel for purchasing goods. For three thousand yuan, I will sell this channel directly."
If she had the energy, she could continue, but she felt that this was the way it was. Xiangyanghong's products were just so-so, nothing new. And she didn't have the time to find alternative clothing with slightly better designs.
So let's leave it at that for now. Her future development will definitely be in the provincial capital, and she also wants to open a branch.
When Mi Hongjun heard this, he was immediately delighted.
After a good night's sleep, Qin Xiang packed some clothes for the brother and sister and returned to the provincial capital early the next morning.
I got out of the car and went straight to the store.
It was already afternoon when we got there, and the place was quite crowded. It wasn't a constant stream of people, but at least there was a constant flow of people.
Qin Xiang observed for a while before going in. Miao Xiaofeng said in surprise, "Sister Xiangxiang, you're back."
"Sister Xiangxiang, you don't know, we all don't feel at ease when you're not around."
The one who spoke was Tan Xiu, who was more outgoing. Seeing Qin Xiang's tired face, she hurriedly said, "Sister Xiangxiang, go upstairs and have a rest."
Qin Xiang was indeed tired. She carried her things upstairs, lay down and fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, it was already six o'clock in the evening. Qin Xiang was woken up by hunger. She got up and went downstairs and found that there were more people in the store than in the afternoon.
Miao Xiaofeng and Tan Xiu did their job very well. Although they were not very brave in matching clothes for customers, they were quick and efficient and had a good attitude, so they were very good.
After waiting for a while, Qin Yang came back with food. Qin Xiang said, "I'm starving. I'll eat a few bites first and then come over to take your place."
Qin Xiang hurried off to eat. Qin Yang looked at the two girls and asked, "She's back early?"
"Sister Xiangxiang will be back in the afternoon." Miao Xiaofeng couldn't help but look up at Qin Yang again, and found that Qin Yang was already looking at the store, so she quickly lowered her eyes.
Tan Xiu on the side couldn't help but curl her lips, but said nothing and turned around to busy herself with entertaining the guests.
Thanks to the large night market in the square, there are much more people here at night than during weekday working hours.
So they can open the door a little later in the morning and keep a closer eye on it at night.
Qin Xiang finished her meal and came down to take their place. She was picking out clothes for a customer when she suddenly heard someone shout, "Boss, I'm here."
Qin Xiang looked at the person coming to the door, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
The God of Wealth is here.
