Chapter 1660 Enticing Ways to Make Money
Le Yin closed the private room door, and with a wave of her hand, Mengyu silenced the noise outside.
Mengyu clapped her hands and said, "Now it’s better, we can eat in peace."
Everyone was looking at Le Yin.
Le Yin looked left and right, then at herself: "Why are you all looking at me? Eat! If you don’t eat, the dishes will get cold."
Hong Jinxiu quickly said, "It won’t get cold, every dish on this table has a small electric stove underneath, they’re kept warm."
That’s the advantage of this private room; in other places, dishes would get cold after a while, but here the table has more than a dozen small electric stoves embedded in it, with a thin stone plate on top, so it won’t burn people, but it keeps the food warm.
Le Yin glared at Jinxiu: "You’re the only one who noticed."
Hong Jinxiu proudly said, "Of course, I not only see clearly but eat well too. Why are you all staring? Eat! Such delicious food, if you don’t eat, I’ll finish it."
As she spoke, she nonchalantly put a big chunk of shark fin into Zhao Daquan’s bowl and handed him her bowl, "Help me scoop a bowl of bird’s nest porridge."
Zhao Daquan affectionately touched her head, took her bowl and served up bird’s nest porridge, "Don’t eat too much, be careful not to digest."
Hai Jinxiu snorted, "I’m not afraid. It’s such a rare opportunity to have good dishes; if I don’t eat my fill, I’ll regret it."
Her words made everyone laugh.
Hong Jinxiu was quite the character, keeping everyone’s spirits up, and soon the atmosphere in the private room was lively again.
Wang Yan asked Mengyu, "Mengyu, I see you spend money like water, does your family give it to you?"
Being classmates, because some people come from privileged backgrounds, they have endless money to spend, while others don’t even have money for extra snacks.
Mengyu smiled slightly, "No, the money is what I earn myself."
"Ah, you earn it?" Hong Jinxiu exclaimed, "How did you earn it? Come on, tell us so we can make some too."
Everyone was looking at Mengyu, hoping to hear how she makes money. Especially Lin Xiuzhi and Wang Yan, who both come from rural backgrounds, and their families couldn’t give them much. Although there’s no tuition to pay, and the school offers scholarships, that money is just enough to survive, not nearly enough.
Mengyu took an antique mirror from her pocket, "I just help people collect antiques. As long as I get my hands on a genuine antique, sell it to that person, and they pay me. I earn the difference, and it’s no problem making a few thousand yuan a month. If I’m lucky and find something good, I can earn tens of thousands, even one hundred thousand."
Mengyu had originally given tasks to her apprentices, but there were only a few of them, so she thought of enlisting classmates to help collect antiques.
The classmates were amazed to hear Mengyu say she could earn thousands a month, sometimes tens of thousands or even one hundred thousand a year.
How incredibly enticing is that!
"But collecting this stuff requires capital, right? We don’t have any. And what if we collect fakes, not real antiques?"
"Well, at first, that Boss lent me money to collect antiques. Then I sold the antiques to him, and he deducted the loan. After making some money, I didn’t need to borrow anymore. Plus, anything has risks, it’s about whether you have the daring."
The classmates listened to Mengyu and felt tempted.
Yeah, everything has risks, especially since the Boss lends money—to some extent, he’s delivering the goods on someone else’s ship. There’s risk for oneself, but even greater risk for the Boss.
A few male classmates were the first to propose, "Mengyu, can you introduce us to your Boss?"
Mengyu shook her head, "No, besides me, he doesn’t want to see anyone." ℯℓ.
The classmates were instantly disappointed.
