13. Make Money
◎What if I raped a male classmate?◎
Others followed suit and came over, "I want one too! I want a dragonfly hairpin!"
A group of people surrounded Bai Xia tightly. The most important thing was that the necklace was really beautiful, and Bai Xia gave it to them for free, so of course they had to reciprocate.
Lin Yan looked at this scene with complicated eyes. He never thought that Bai Xia, who was only three and a half years old, had business talent and had even reached kindergarten.
"Why do they all have gifts, but we boys don't?" Qi Mo said unwillingly, lying on the desk.
The other boys also echoed, "Yes, yes."
Bai Xia glanced back at him and said, "Because I only brought this much, how about this? To make it up to you, men can get custom badges or jewelry at a 10% discount compared to women."
Hearing this, everyone started talking about it. Perhaps they wanted to play with Bai Xia, so they all came over to place orders.
Qi Mo calculated on his fingers and thought it was a good deal. Then he patted the table generously and said, "I want a badge with a horse on it. I'm going to the stables to ride horses next week. Ask your mother to design it quickly."
Bai Xia frowned, "It's first come, first served. If you want to expedite it, you have to pay the expedited fee. But since we are classmates, I won't charge you the expedited fee this time."
Hearing this, Qi Mo's eyes changed. He stared at the girl's profile for a long while, then quietly came to Lin Yan's side, his ears reddening. "Why is she so nice to me? Does she like me?"
“…”
Lin Yan stared at him with strange eyes. This was just a marketing tactic.
She deliberately only gives gifts to girls in order to make boys dissatisfied, and then introduces discounts. Boys will feel that they have made a good deal, and most of them will place orders.
The key to marketing is not discounts, but the differences in people's hearts. It is obvious that Bai Xia has grasped it very well.
She is indeed a genius, a standard genius.
"Would it be inappropriate for me to buy only one?" Qi Mo blushed as he peeked at the little girl. "I'll buy three, one for mom and one for dad. I have so much pocket money and nowhere to spend it anyway."
Lin Yan didn't say anything. Maybe he and Bai Xia didn't have to be rivals. Win-win cooperation was also good.
"I want a basic pair for my mom."
Suddenly, a childish male voice came from behind. Bai Xia turned around and saw through the crowd that it was Lin Yan who was speaking. This boy was usually very gloomy, either reading or not, but he actually wanted to take advantage of this little thing? Was he playing some tricks on her?
"The 30% discount is limited to the first ten people, you can only get a 10% discount." She rolled her eyes.
Lin Yan took out his phone from the desk, walked over and opened the app, "How much is your account? I'll transfer it to you."
He discovered that Bai Xia had considerable hostility towards him, just because he stole a glance at her? Yet Qi Mo scolded her, and she was able to turn the enemy into a friend.
Bai Xia shook his head, "You have to tell your family before I can accept the money."
What if people find out and accuse her of cheating? She only does legitimate business.
Lin Yan looked at her for a moment without saying anything. He paid the deposit and returned to his seat.
Qi Mo bumped his arm proudly and said, "Did you see that? You only get a 10% discount, but I get a 30% discount. It's obvious that she likes me."
“…”
Lin Yan continued to open the book and stopped talking.
Seeing the classroom full of people, the housekeeper couldn't help but take a few glances through the window, but when he saw that the young lady was actually doing business, he was stunned.
The young lady is only three and a half years old, and she already knows how to run a business?!
Bai Xia memorized a whole page of the list until the teacher called the class to start and everyone else returned to their seats.
It is easy to make money from children, but you can't do it against your conscience, so she asked these people to go home and tell their parents. If the parents agree, it means they are willing to let their children interact with her. If not, then forget it. Even if the deal fails, the friendship between classmates remains.
The target group for this kind of jewelry is the wealthy circle. As long as the design of the heroine is eye-catching enough, adults may customize it after seeing it. Her target group has never been children, but wealthy ladies who really have needs.
After returning home from school, she sorted out the list. There were more than a dozen orders, not including basic items. She would send it to the heroine after finalizing the list tomorrow.
It's rare for everyone to be together for dinner. Probably to establish himself as a loving father, Lu Lin now comes back for dinner at night, unlike before when he would leave early and come back late.
"I heard that Xia Xia is doing business at school?" Lu Jinnian seemed to have gotten the news, and his eyes were filled with relief when he looked at his great-granddaughter.
Bai Xia ate her meal and nodded, "Mom already established her own brand a long time ago, but she delayed making money because of taking care of me, so I want more people to see her designs."
Hearing this, Yao Yun cut the steak slowly, with a slight smile on her lips, "How can a kindergarten kid start a business?"
The housekeeper spoke at the right time, "Miss, you've made a lot of sales today. You're very popular."
Other kids of this age can’t even figure out arithmetic, but this young lady actually knows to charge an expedited fee.
Lu Qihui became interested, perhaps to amuse his granddaughter, "How much is one? I'll buy one for your grandma too."
Bai Xia took a bite of the lion's head and held up five fingers. "The basic style is 50,000 yuan a pair, and the custom ones start at 100,000 yuan. Grandpa and grandma are so loving, we must buy a few more. My mom designed some really nice ones, and they're only 500,000 yuan a pair. Grandpa, buy them all!"
She's been a granddaughter for so long, it makes sense for her to sell a few necklaces.
Facing his granddaughter's clear eyes, Lu Qihui smiled and said, "Okay, Grandpa will buy them all."
Yao Yun was cutting the steak vigorously. This little girl was really greedy for money.
Bai Xia took out a note from his pocket and ran over to hand it to Lu Qihui, "One-time payment, first come first served."
Lu Lin drank a sip of water thoughtfully. It must be difficult for Ruan Wen to start a business, and the Song guy would definitely take advantage of the situation.
"Don't set your sights on my mother." Bai Xia took the opportunity to roll her eyes at him.
As soon as the male protagonist blinked, she knew that he was going to go crazy.
Lu Jinnian suddenly laughed out loud. "It's amazing that Xia Xia has such talent. Moreover, she gets first place in every subject. She's definitely a child of our Lu family. We'll let her skip a grade in a few years. Now she can learn some basic courses and see the company's development history."
Bai Xia sat there and picked up a spoon to drink soup. "I want to learn judo and karate."
Hearing this, Lu Qihui, who was eating, couldn't help but frown and looked up and down at his granddaughter's petite body. "Did someone bully you at school?"
Lu Jinnian turned his gaze to the housekeeper, who also looked puzzled. The young lady was loved by everyone in school. Everyone liked to play with her. Even if there were people who didn't like her, they didn't dare to say a word, let alone bully her.
"No one bullies me. I know I have a bodyguard uncle, but the bodyguard uncle can't follow me 24 hours a day. If there is any danger, I can protect myself." Bai Xia's face was serious.
The latter was stunned. He didn't expect that his great-granddaughter still had this awareness. This was a good thing. If she was kidnapped, it might save her life. Unlike that kid Shuo Shuo, asking him to attend classes was like asking for his life.
"Okay, go and arrange the best coach for the young lady." He looked at the housekeeper.
The latter nodded, "Yes."
Yao Yun gripped her knife and fork tightly. She had to get her son back. This couldn't go on any longer, otherwise there would be no place for her and her son in the entire Lu family.
After dinner, Bai Xia went back to the piano room to practice. She really didn't know how to play the piano, but the teacher's teaching was easy to understand, so it was quite easy to practice.
You are free anyway, and the knowledge is yours, so just treat it as digestion after a meal.
The next day she received a lot of feedback. Many people were willing to continue with the customization. Only two people said that their adults disagreed. She returned the deposit immediately. It is common for many people to be prejudiced against the heroine.
That's why the heroine needs to have her own career instead of becoming someone's appendage. As long as her personal abilities are outstanding, others will ignore the labels brought by her partner.
After receiving the order from her, the female host was silent for a long time on the phone. It seemed that she had accepted her daughter's difference and was not as surprised as before. However, she still asked her how she got so many orders, which were more than she had received in the previous month.
Bai Xia only said that her classmate thought the necklace was beautiful, so she customized it for her. Bai Ruanwen suddenly understood why her daughter asked her for a necklace. She couldn't imagine that this was the idea of a three-year-old child.
There was a ballroom dance class at school that day. Students were divided into pairs and could form partners freely. Bai Xia was just about to find her deskmate to form a team, but unexpectedly Qi Mo came over. The two of them talked about something and started arguing.
"Bai Xia and I are desk mates, and we agreed to form a team together!" The male desk mate glared at Qi Mo angrily.
The latter snorted coldly, "You are so short, why would she team up with you!"
Hearing this, the male classmate pushed him in frustration and cursed in a childish voice, "Who are you calling short? You haven't even grown all your teeth yet, she won't team up with you!"
Seeing that he actually mocked his own teeth for not having grown in, Qi Mo was so angry that he started to fight without saying a word. The two of them were fighting in the huge dance studio, and the teacher hurried forward to separate them.
Bai Xia had just taken a sip of water and put down her kettle when she saw a fight break out. Perhaps she was cut out to be a kindergarten teacher? Otherwise, why would kids fight for her?
"Teacher, can I draw a group with He Yue?" She raised her hand.
The female teacher nodded quickly, "Of course."
After finally separating the two, the teacher checked whether they were injured. He never expected that Mr. Lu's daughter would be so popular. It was obvious that no one liked her at the beginning, but now someone asked her to change her seat to sit next to Bai Xia every day.
Lu Lin rarely had time to pick up his daughter in the afternoon, but when he heard the housekeeper say that someone was fighting over his daughter, his face instantly darkened.
When the little girl walked out of the school with her schoolbag, he went forward to pick up her schoolbag, but Bai Xia climbed into the car by herself.
After getting in the car, Lu Lin casually handed over a bottle of milk and said, "Don't get too close to male classmates in the future. They all have bad intentions."
It's nothing more than someone claiming to be a friend but harboring ulterior motives, like someone with the surname Song.
Bai Xia glanced at him and asked, "You are not a man?"
The car fell into silence. The driver was used to the lady's straightforward and precise way of speaking.
Lu Lin took a breath, then looked at the girl seriously, "Yes, I wasn't a good person when I was young. This is human nature. No matter who approaches you, you have to keep a proper distance."
Bai Xia looked him up and down. The male protagonist actually knew that there was something wrong with him? And yet he still acted as if he was doing nothing wrong?
"Since you know you're not a good person, why are you still pestering my mother? Is this human nature?"
She crossed her arms and said dissatisfiedly, "People should respect themselves. If your values are not correct, how can my values be corrected in the future? What if I fall in love with a male classmate and take advantage of him?"
