Chapter 129 Brother, You Are So Kind
Cross-border e-commerce has great prospects. Chen Jianghe remembers very clearly that Li Jun made his first fortune by engaging in cross-border e-commerce in Shenzhen after graduating from university.
Li Jun used the Amazon platform to sell cheap mobile phone accessories from Huaqiangbei and inexpensive and high-quality wedding dresses from eastern Guangdong to North America. He created several hit products in succession and quickly became rich.
The most important thing in cross-border e-commerce is product selection, followed by talent pool and logistics services.
Amazon platform entered the Chinese market in 2004, but has not yet made any big waves.
From what Chen Jianghe heard from Shen Congrong, he thought that Shen wanted to build his own website, start a company, and operate it independently. However, doing so is actually very risky, requires a large amount of capital investment, and is unlikely to make a profit in the short term.
But once it is done, the profits are unimaginable.
"I will take the time to meet with Shen Congrong's technical team and get a feel for them. Then I will recruit some top students from CUHK to build a team and work with Jiang Yishu to test the waters of cross-border e-commerce."
Chen Jianghe is a cautious person and he has limited funds on hand. Even though he is very optimistic about the development prospects of cross-border e-commerce, he does not plan to jump into it headfirst. Instead, he has come up with two plans and will proceed step by step.
We had dinner at Teacher Zhu's home. Teacher Zhu was in a good mood today. He took out a few bottles of red wine that he had collected for many years from the wine cabinet and had a few drinks with the students.
During the meal, Chen Jianghe discovered that Old Zhu's son Zhu Yongzhi kept his eyes fixed on Jiang Yishu, looking like a little fool.
"This little idiot really doesn't seem very smart. Old Zhu's gene tree has grown crooked."
Chen Jianghe felt sorry for Teacher Zhu, but unexpectedly, after dinner, Zhu Yongzhi came to Jiang Yishu with a chicken drumstick in his hand and said in a grunting voice, "Sister, you are so beautiful, prettier than my mother. I want to kiss you."
Jiang Yishu was slightly stunned, then her eyes flickered as she looked at the little kid in front of her who was only as tall as her waist, hesitating whether to let him kiss her.
"Damn, you can't judge a person by his appearance."
Chen Jianghe spat in his heart: "This little brat hasn't even started to grow hair yet, and he's already learned how to tease girls?"
"Xiao Zhu, this sister is mine, you can't kiss her."
Chen Jianghe reached out and pulled Jiang Yishu behind him. After asserting his sovereignty, he raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Mingjie who was not far away. He smiled and said, "The brother opposite is also very good-looking. Go and kiss him."
"Oh." Zhu Yongzhi turned his head and glanced at Zhang Mingjie, and suddenly his eyes lit up. That brother had a delicate face and was indeed good-looking. He ran over, and while he wasn't paying attention, he kissed him on the face several times with his greasy little mouth that had just gnawed a chicken leg, then ran away with a happy smile.
Zhang Mingjie felt like he was struck by lightning, his whole body was numb, and the classmates around him burst into laughter.
The instigator, Mr. Chen, also laughed and praised Zhu Yongzhi: "Little Zhu is popular with both boys and girls. He will have a bright future when he grows up."
"Yishu." After praising Zhu Yongzhi, Chen Jianghe turned to look at Jiang Yishu.
"Hmm?" Jiang Yishu blinked, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"Come with me."
Chen Jianghe took her hand and led her outside.
"Shall we go for a walk to the middle school?" Chen Jianghe asked Jiang Yishu with a smile.
"Okay." Jiang Yishu nodded gently, and walked side by side with him in the afterglow of the setting sun, walking briskly towards the high school not far away that left the marks of her three years of youth.
The gatekeeper was still the original Uncle Mao, wearing a military green cotton coat, holding a cup of hot tea, smiling and looking amiable.
Everything on campus is familiar.
The teaching buildings with lights on, the dormitory buildings with mottled exterior walls, the small basketball court where people are always sweating, the deserted tennis court with a green fence, and the sports students running hard on the plastic track.
Every blade of grass and every tree here has a familiar scent, especially the osmanthus trees, which have been fragrant since the golden autumn in my memory and still are today.
It seems like it was just yesterday that I graduated from high school, but coming back here feels like many years have passed.
Fortunately, someone held my hand.
The feeling of walking hand in hand with Jiang Yishu in our alma mater is much more comfortable than walking on the street in the CUHK campus before.
When the wind blows, Jiang Yishu's soft hair moves with the wind and falls on Chen Jianghe's neck, itchy and fragrant, more refreshing than the scent of osmanthus.
The two walked through the teaching building, dormitory building, playground, and cafeteria, and finally came to the grove, a Feng Shui treasure land for lovers to meet secretly.
Jiang Yishu was leaning against a tree. Chen Jianghe held her soft palm with one hand, and rested his other hand on the tree trunk, looking at her with lowered eyebrows.
Even though they had had several intimate contacts before, Jiang Yishu was still as shy as ever, with flushed cheeks, accelerated heartbeat, and nervous rapid breathing.
"When I was in school, I always fantasized that one day if I wrote a love letter and moved Jiang Yishu, and she agreed to be my girlfriend, I would definitely bring her to this grove and give her a good kiss." Chen Jianghe said.
Jiang Yishu raised her eyes to look at him, pursed her lips, and said softly, "A little bad."
"What's wrong?" Chen Jianghe asked with a smile, and then said, "I was originally a candidate for admission to Zhongda University, or even Peking University or Tsinghua University, but because I fell in love with you, my academic performance declined instead of improving, and I finally barely managed to get into Guangdong University of Finance."
"I've suffered a huge loss. Do you want to give me some compensation?" Chen Jianghe asked her.
"How...how to compensate?" Jiang Yishu asked. From her impression, Chen Jianghe's grades seemed to have been very stable. Every time the class announced the test results, he could usually be found among the dozens of names at the back.
Jiang Yishu's academic performance is also very stable. She has been ranked first in the class for three consecutive years.
"No one can see us here, just kiss me first." Chen Jianghe said with a smile.
"Oh." Jiang Yishu said, looked at him deeply, then closed her eyes, stood on tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek.
The warm touch, like a spark, fell into Chen Jianghe's heart.
Chen Jianghe suddenly reached out and hugged her, leaning against the tree, and kissed her back.
Breathing intertwined.
The girl's shyness and unfamiliarity, her fragrance and sweetness were all captured by the exploratory Chen Jianghe. He was a bookworm who could not put his book down, turning the pages gently. The more he read, the deeper he read, and the more interesting it became. Occasionally, when he came across something wonderful, he would read it over and over again, feeling happy both physically and mentally and tirelessly.
When the lips part.
Jiang Yishu could hardly stand steadily, her face was flushed, her eyes were hazy, and she was indescribably charming.
Chen Jianghe first held her up with both hands, then sat down on the ground covered with fallen leaves, patted his thighs, and said, "Sit on my lap."
"No...someone is coming."
Jiang Yishu rarely rejected Chen Jianghe and pointed to a place not far away. Indeed, a couple had entered the grove and were interacting intimately as if no one was around. In the cold weather, they felt that the thick clothes were in the way and inconvenient to operate, so they simply took off their coats...
"This generation of young people is really open-minded."
Chen Jianghe looked at them with interest for a few seconds, then stood up, patted his butt, and left holding Jiang Yishu's hand: "We are all good children, we can't learn bad things from them."
After walking out of the grove, Chen Jianghe looked at Jiang Yishu, whose face was still flushed, and said with a smile: "Let's go to your house for dinner tomorrow and try my mother-in-law's cooking."
"My mom...can't cook. My dad cooks at home."
Jiang Yishu said a little embarrassedly: "I don't know how to do it either. I can only help wash the dishes."
"It's okay, then try my father-in-law's cooking. If you can't do it, I can cook for you."
Chen Jianghe smiled. It is good to marry a wife who is both good at housework and good at cooking. But if she is like Jiang Yishu, even if she has never done housework, Chen Jianghe would still like her.
No one is perfect. It is the little flaws that make people more attracted and liked.
"Brother." Jiang Yishu called Chen Jianghe softly.
"Hmm?" Chen Jianghe looked at her with a smile.
"You are so nice." Jiang Yishu smiled and praised him in a playful way.
