Chapter 222 - Spending Money Like Water
Chapter 222: Spending Money Like Water
Next, Su Yang, Pool and Sanque continued discussing the details of the health supplement.
They needed to make sure the health supplement was beneficial to the body.
Sanque’s ginseng could cure all diseases, one centimeter could be used to treat colds, menstrual irregularities, and minor illnesses. Two centimeters could be used to heal wounds in a short period of time. These facts alone were more than enough to prove the medicinal value of the supplement.
Even if this effect was diluted, it was still good for the body. It’s much stronger than those fraudulent health supplements on the market!
Su Yang felt that as long as they properly publicized the product, it would continue to spread by word of mouth. Sanque’s health product would definitely be a big hit!
Who wouldn’t love to drink something to stay healthy! Who wouldn’t want to live a long, healthy life?
Now… what name should we call it? Sanque’s Oral Fluid? That sounds a little embarrassing.
It wouldn’t be mistaken for a knock-off, right?
Putting the name aside for the time being, Su Yang summoned an interface and looked it up on the internet. Opening a health care factory didn’t seem to be a simple task. It required many qualifications, and the products had to be tested and verified by the health department.
The more he researched, the more troublesome Su Yang felt it was.
Moreover, he also suddenly discovered that Pool really had the potential to be a boss! He tapped into his head and tried to come up with an idea. Then, he decided to screw it all and leave it to his subordinates to work it out.
However! The problem was that Pool’s solution was tempting! That, and it could make more money for him as well! He had absolutely no reason to refuse…
After chatting with Pool and Sanque, Su Yang called Deeny to his side and talked to her in a long and detailed manner, the gist of which was that it really wasn’t convenient to have a pet as big as a bear at home. He had to find something for it to do, or else it’d be too destructive.
In the end, before they finished chatting, the rabbit moved its fat body, wobbled over, and belly-flopped Su Yang….
Then, it looked at Little Deeny in distress and pointed to its own stomach. It was as if Little Deeny understood sign language when she lifted her index finger and said, “You’re hungry, aren’t you?”
Fatty Rabbit nodded its head in aggravation.
Deeny replied quickly, “Wait for me, okay?!”
With that, she trotted off to the kitchen on her tiny legs.
After a while, she carried a few carrots to Fatty and put them on the table. “Here, eat.”
Fatty picked up the carrots with its short little hands, nibbled on them twice, and with a disgusted expression on its face, threw the carrots back on the table. It’s mouth formed a frown and seemed like it was about to cry.
Deeny quickly reached out to pat its… rabbit belly. “Good boy, good boy, don’t cry, alright? You don’t like carrots, do you? I’ll find you something else.”
The rabbit, as if on purpose, blossomed into a smile again when Deeny said that.
Then Little Deeny took out a cabbage from the refrigerator, washed it and brought it over. This tie, the rabbit was willing to eat it.
The rabbit sat down on the floor, and the whole floor trembled to the extent that the table was moved a few centimeters away. Then, it grabbed the cabbage, tore a leaf off and stuffed it into its mouth.
As it gobbled down the entire cabbage, its fat eyes were all squinted up in pleasure.
Su Yang was speechless as he watched the events unfold before him.
Did he feel quite neglected? Yes, he felt quite neglected!
‘It’s over. I’ve completely lost my place at home.’
In the past, even if he slightly bumped against hard object, Little Deeny would have shown a lot of concern and worry about him. However, after having the rabbit, he had become invisible in Little Deeny’s eyes…. He really missed the sweet, gentle, and obedient Deeny that she was to him!
Why did this situation look so much like she was a woman who’s had a baby?
According to his own junior high school classmate who sold pens in Jiujiang County, his wife was particularly nervous about him when he first got married. She would watch him all day long, from the time he left for the stationery store until he got off work. If he were just a little late to come home, she would bombard him with phone calls to check up on him.
When he went to chat online, his wife had to be within a two-meter radius while doing her duties at home and her eyes would glance at his phone or computer from time to time. He was getting tired of this. Every day, he wanted to run away and leave the house.
However, as soon as the child was born, his wife changed completely and her heart was set on the child. She began to ignore him.
He also began turning into an a*shole. Every day, he would feel jealous of his child and attempt to attract his wife’s attention, hoping that his wife would care more about him but in the end, nothing changed.
He used to be the most precious one in the family, but that’s gone forever.
Yes, that was right. There were quite a few cases of de facto marriages in the countryside that happened to children below the legal age.
If Su Yang hadn’t passed the exam, he might have been talking about marriage now.
Even if he didn’t, Su Yang still had a taste of what it was like to be married, and he felt like he was the husband who was abandoned after having a child.
He sighed, covered his broken heart and walked upstairs while forcing himself to think. ‘Sleep, I should sleep. If I sleep, I’ll dream that I have everything…’
The next day, Su Yang returned to the school that he hadn’t been to in a long time.
After skipping classes for nearly a week, Su Yang felt much closer to school. However… Chu Xia wasn’t very friendly.
“Su Yang! You have the nerve to come to school!” Chu Xia was wearing a dress, but her movements were quite overbearing. “Do you know how I’ve been spending my week?”
Su Yang looked at her carefully. “Drinking? Bungee jumping?”
Chu Xia’s face stiffened for a moment and she got even angrier. “I spent the entire week helping you make up excuses!”
Chu Xia grabbed Su Yang aside and said in an exasperated voice, “So far, you’ve had a cold and broken arm five times in a row. Your stomach has hurt three times and your cousin has been in two accidents!”
“At the end of the day, I couldn’t make it up any longer and you were late, so all I could say was that you had broken a bone!”
Su Yang was stunned.
Chu Xia continued, “Teacher asked me why I sid you broke your bones when you told her you had a cold! I just said that when you went to get a sling for that broken arm of yours, you got a cold because nobody was there to take care of you so you had to eat take-out. As a result, you didn’t take care of your food intake and you got a call that your cousin had been in an accident when you were going to the bathroom. So, when you rushed out, you hit the door of the hospital and broke your bones.”
Su Yang was speechless.
Chu Xia’s ability to make up this nonsense was making her seem more and more like him.
Su Yang smiled, then went around to the back of Chu Xia and gave her a squeeze on the shoulder. “Chu Xia, you’ve really worked hard. Why don’t I treat you to dinner tonight.”
Chu Xia wrinkled her nose and snorted. “Do you think I’m doing it for that meal of yours?!”
Su Yang quickly gave her a gentle massage and said, “No, no. You’re doing this for me.”
Chu Xia’s face blushed and she said, “Nonsense! I just wanted to tell you that… you should just skip another week of classes.”
Su Yang’s hand stopped on Chu Xia’s shoulder, and he looked confused. ‘What did I just hear? Did I hear that wrong?’
Chu Xia whispered, “I don’t know how to explain myself, since I just told the teacher yesterday that you broke your bones and yet, you’re alive and kicking today! How am I going to explain this to the teacher? I won’t be able to make any excuses for you in the future!”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘I never thought that I would one day be kicked out of school by Chu Xia. It’s unimaginable…’
Fortunately, Chu Xia was just ranting in an attempt to vent her frustration at Su Yang not coming to school for many days so she didn’t really kick him out.
Of course, the other reason was… Today’s class wasn’t with the teacher with whom she told he had broken his leg.
After class, Su Yang received a call from the finance manager of his company. “Director Su, the Entrepreneur Park management asked us to pay the expenses other than the deposit for the office space, and said it has been delayed for several days. In addition, they said we were buying a large area, so we’ll have to put down one month’s rent as a security deposit and pay three months worth of rent in total. ”
With Tang Dafa’s two million as a guarantee, it was easier for Su Yang to make decisions on these matters. “It’s fine. It’s according to the normal process. It’s as normal as it is. You’ve been dealing with them in Junqing, and the park can’t cheat you of the money.”
The finance manager replied, “Okay, Director Su.”
After talking about this, the finance manager continued, “There’s one more thing, Director Su. This Friday is the Dragon Boat Festival, and according to the norm, our company should distribute holiday gifts to our employees as well as cooperative customers. The manager of the administration and logistics department has already submitted the budget.”
Su Yang asked, “Send me a copy, and I’ll take a look at it. If there’s no problem, I’ll sign it, and you can send it out.”
“Okay, Director Su.”
After a few minutes, a detailed list of gifts was sent to Su Yang’s mailbox. He opened it and looked at it. With Junqing’s capability, the efficiency of the company’s work wasn’t really the same as what he was used to.
The categories on it were very clear. According to the ranking of each employee, there were different levels of gifts. For example, the Dragon Boat Festival gift for ordinary employees was about 300 yuan. The team leader gets about 500, the manager gets about 800, while the general assistant and general manager gets about 1200.
As for the cooperative companies, they were divided into several different grades according to the size of the company, the amount of cooperation they had between them, and their level of relationship.
This was the one that incurred a big expense.
Since the former Junqing and the current Qidian E-commerce were going through a merger, they had to continue relying on building and maintaining relationships to make business work. All aspects had to be well prepared and looked into.
For this festival, Su Yang calculated that he’d actually have to spend more than seventy thousand!
‘Geez, it’s hard owning a company. Adding in the morning session venue fee… It’ll still cost 12,000 a month after the discount, which is close to 50,000.
‘Just a phone call and 120,000 is gone.’
Su Yang now believed it when the finance manager said the original Qidian E-commerce company account that spent only tens of thousands wasn’t enough.
Su Yang sent a copy of the gift specifications to Wang Dong to confirm that there was nothing fishy about it and signed it.
As for how he signed it. Now, everything was done electronically so a digital signature through his mobile phone was just as effective.
After school, Su Yang was, once again, thinking about Sanque’s healthcare company.
The healthcare company required many complicated things. Food Production Permit, Management and Health Permit, production samples and setting up the factory. These were all very troublesome things.
If all these were done, it would take a long time. Not to mention, the initial cost was also quite significant. In fact, it seemed better if he directly acquired one.
Su Yang pondered. ‘I’m not sure how much a health product production company costs. If there’s a cheap one… I probably won’t even need to get a new factory or equipment. All I have to do is buy a shell company and use it’s permits.’
Thinking of this, Su Yang gave Tang Jing a call and asked if she had any resources in this area. She replied and said she’d keep an eye out for it for Su Yang.
Back home, Deeny was shooting a new episode of the monster family video. This time, a new character would appear — the rabbit named Fatty.
