Chapter 13 Love can conquer mountains and seas
"Boss, would you like to know more about group purchase of takeout?"
"No, no."
"Beautiful lady, are you interested in learning about group buying for takeout? I can help you make a hundred more orders every day, which is both profitable and worry-free."
"Not interested."
"boss……"
"roll!"
…
The opening connection failed.
But it was all expected.
Chen Jianghe was very stable and not discouraged. All things are difficult at the beginning, especially in business. Even with the halo of rebirth, it is impossible to achieve success overnight. The idea of being able to sign orders casually with just a little mouth is just a trick in online novels and basically does not exist in reality.
Under the scorching sun, Chen Jianghe asked all the merchants on the street in one afternoon. Only one showed good intention. After talking for half an hour in the store, the boss still had many concerns and could not sign the contract for the time being.
The difficulty of expanding the takeout business in 2006 was much greater than it was 10 years after graduating from university in my previous life.
Because most people have an instinctive suspicion and resistance to new things, especially those owners of small restaurant businesses.
Chen Jianghe bought a bottle of mineral water, gulped down a few gulps, rested for a while in the shade, and continued to ask questions with the flyer. In the evening, when he passed a Dakoujiu milk tea shop, he seemed to see a familiar figure, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
The weather was so hot that I was sweating so much that I could hardly open my eyes.
Until eight o'clock in the evening, the weather turned bad and it started to rain heavily.
Chen Jianghe went out without an umbrella and was nearly soaked. Fortunately, he ran fast and took shelter under the awning of a stall.
"It's raining so hard that the awning is leaking."
Chen Jianghe muttered something and was thinking about running forward a few meters and hiding in the shop in front.
Just as I was about to lift my feet, I suddenly noticed that the rain above my head had become lighter.
"Why is it you?"
Chen Jianghe turned his head and saw that the person holding an umbrella for him to protect him from the rain was Jiang Yishu.
"I was working part-time at that store and I saw you."
Jiang Yishu raised her hand and pointed at the Dakoujiu milk tea shop not far away. However, under Chen Jianghe's direct gaze, her face turned red again. She turned sideways and avoided Chen Jianghe's direct gaze.
However, the umbrella in her hand was a little small, and she was so focused on shielding Chen Jianghe that she didn't consider that half of her body was already wet.
"Why are you avoiding my gaze? Are you afraid to look me in the face?" Chen Jianghe looked at her and asked, "Did my action this morning scare you?"
"No." Jiang Yishu shook her head and replied softly: "I will be nervous when I see you."
"Didn't I tell you that we are all old classmates and I treat you as a brother. There is no need to be nervous." Chen Jianghe sighed.
"Do you really... treat me as a brother?" Jiang Yishu blinked, turned to look at him, her eyes flickering.
Chen Jianghe smiled but didn't answer. He looked at her seriously. The apron she was wearing was a style that most people couldn't pull off, but when she wore it, she looked delicate and graceful, full of girlishness and unique charm.
Being so close, Chen Jianghe's eyes were a little out of control. He looked from top to bottom. The watery almond eyes, the straight nose, the thin lips, the shy purity when she lowered her eyebrows, and the white and tender skin that was faintly visible after being wet by the rain were like a medicine that stimulated the secretion of male hormones.
Jiang Yishu was a little flustered by his gaze and avoided his gaze.
Chen Jianghe stared for a long time before looking away and asked casually, "You work part-time in the milk tea shop mainly to experience life, right?"
He remembered that Jiang Yishu's family was well-off, and her parents were both government employees, one working in the neighborhood office and the other in the Education Bureau. They were guaranteed a stable income, no matter what the weather.
"Yeah." Jiang Yishu nodded. Her heart beat a little faster because he had been staring at her for a long time. After responding, she pursed her lips and looked away.
"Hey, we're both wanderers in this world."
Chen Jianghe sighed intentionally or unintentionally, took the umbrella from Jiang Yishu, and hugged her in his arms: "Life is not easy, let's keep each other warm."
Jiang Yishu's body stiffened visibly, and her expression became as nervous as a frightened rabbit. Her pretty face suddenly turned red to her ears, but she did not move.
"I was too cowardly in my previous life. I missed such a good girl." Chen Jianghe hugged this tender girl, his heart was distracted.
At this time , several boys passing by with umbrellas stopped to watch, staring at Chen Jianghe with hostility.
Chen Jianghe was a little unhappy. He raised his eyelids and looked fierce: "What are you looking at? Have you never seen love before?"
"..." Several boys were obviously stunned, and seeing that he was not someone to be trifled with, they left in a hurry.
"You're holding me too tight."
After a while, Jiang Yishu finally pushed him gently.
Chen Jianghe took a few steps back and found that the rain had subsided.
"I'll give you the umbrella. I'm going back to the dormitory."
Jiang Yishu left a word, then turned and ran away.
Chen Jianghe tried to chase her, but found that this weak girl ran faster than a rabbit and quickly disappeared into the night.
Chen Jianghe simply stopped chasing after her, holding the small flower umbrella that Jiang Yishu had given him, and continued to harass the stall owners.
Due to the rain, business at the stalls was slow at night. Chen Jianghe bought two packs of cigarettes and went door to door handing cigarettes to the owners while chatting.
As the topic was opened up, the bosses naturally put away their daytime indifference and became talkative, occasionally taking the initiative to ask about the takeaway business.
Someone handed him a ladder and Chen Jianghe climbed up.
At around nine o'clock, he successfully signed his first order.
Half an hour later, under the introduction of the proprietress of the first merchant who signed the order, he signed the second and third orders one after another.
After signing the three orders, Chen Jianghe returned to school contentedly.
On the way back to the dormitory, he took a deep breath and felt that the air was especially fresh tonight. The senior schoolmate passing by was also especially beautiful. College life was so wonderful.
The only regret is that the beautiful senior sister’s hand is held by someone, but I am alone.
When passing by a grove, you might inadvertently catch a glimpse of someone working in the woods in the dripping rain. The faint sound coming from it is enough to take your soul away.
You two shameless bastards.
Chen Jianghe spat in his heart, thinking that if he could catch up with Teacher Xu or Jiang Yishu in the future, he would definitely try this feeling.
However, when thinking of Xu Zhixi, Chen Jianghe felt a little heartbroken.
He thought he could get close to her anytime after becoming the class monitor, but unexpectedly, Teacher Xu kept a distance from him deliberately. She would just send him a notification on QQ if there was anything. Chen Jianghe went to the office to look for her several times but came up empty-handed.
"I'll think of a way to trick you out."
Chen Jianghe seemed to be deep in thought. Chasing girls was just like this. After climbing over one mountain, there was another mountain to climb. For a freshman like him, chasing after the goddess-like counselor Xu Zhixi was as difficult as climbing over the Himalayas.
"Love can be leveled even if it's separated by mountains and seas."
Chen Jianghe muttered, and added : "If you don't agree, I'll find someone else to help me."
"It's great to force rhyme. Teacher Xu is good, and Jiang Yishu is also good."
Chen Jianghe lit a cigarette and staggered back to the dormitory. He pushed the door open and saw that it was deserted. Chen Jianghe stepped out and looked at the house number to make sure he was in the right place.
"Old Liu, why are you the only one lying on the bed? Where are the others?" Chen Jianghe walked into the dormitory and asked Liu Dongliang.
