School Beauty's Invincible Martial Expert

"Yes!" Yang Lu nodded.

"In addition, today everyone is limited to purchasing one unit only!" Xiao Han instructed.

"But we're about to run out of stock!" Yang Lu said helplessly: "I never imagined today's sales scene would be so explosive."

"This was to be expected!" Xiao Han said with a faint smile, then continued, "If we run out of stock, let headquarters send more. If headquarters is also out of stock, then let customers place orders. Just call them later to notify them when to pick up. As long as they buy today, they'll all get the discount."

"Yes!" Yang Lu nodded.

Just as Xiao Han was wandering around the store, suddenly, a voice came from behind.

"Yo, isn't that Xiao Han?" Liao Zhijie's voice came.

Xiao Han turned his head to look at Liao Zhijie and, frowning, said, "Is it you?"

"What? Surprised to see me?" Liao Zhijie grinned and said, "But how come a pauper like you is also looking at Apple products? Tsk, I think you better forget it; you can't afford a single item here. Do you know how much this phone costs?"

As he spoke, Liao Zhijie flaunted the Apple phone he had just gotten.

Xiao Han remained silent.

"Let me tell you, a total of seven thousand three hundred!" Liao Zhijie laughed and said, "For a pauper like you, your family probably can't even come up with this much money, right?"

"Haha..." At this moment, Liao Zhijie's lackeys burst into boisterous laughter.

Xiao Han glanced at them but did not say a word.

Liao Zhijie also lost interest; after strutting around for a while, he led his schoolmates out of the Apple Store. The store was still overrun with people. Business was booming to an extreme.

Outside, a few people were curiously gathering around to watch.

"Who would've thought their business would be so hot?"

"Isn't that obvious? This is the only Apple authorized store in the provincial city."

"Damn, with this kind of business, they're probably raking in several hundred thousand a day, right?"

The group quietly discussed among themselves.

.........

Meida Group Headquarters.

Located on the twelfth floor of Building A in the Twin Towers at the heart of the business district of the provincial city, this is the office area of Meida Group. Occupying more than eight hundred square meters, the office area houses over three hundred employees, from the company president to the cleaning lady, all working here.

"Director Yang, we've just sent someone to check." A man dressed in a black suit stepped slowly into the general manager's office.

"How's it going?" In the office, a familiar-looking woman, dressed in lavish attire, was sitting on the couch. She was Jiang Xiaoliang's mother, Yang Jinfeng. Recently, an Apple authorized store opened on the pedestrian street, which had raised her vigilance.

Yang Jinfeng had always been very keen on Apple products, so she had been eager to obtain official authorization. Although Meida Group also owned Meida Electronics, and Yang Jinfeng had specially opened a Meida Electronics supermarket in the provincial city, featuring an Apple section. Unfortunately, her Apple products were not genuinely authorized by the United States.

They were grey imports from other channels, such as Hong Kong, the United States, Malaysia, etc. Once these grey market goods were sold, they could not enjoy warranty services. Moreover, sourcing these products required extensive connections to operate behind the scenes; getting caught would be troublesome.

Furthermore, the profit margins on grey imports were not high. Yang Jinfeng had long been wanting to get official authorization from Apple, the so-called "national line"! But, she had been unable to secure the agency rights. She had thought that an official authorized store would not appear in the provincial city, but in just a blink of an eye, one had emerged.

"Their business is indeed good!" The man in the suit frowned and said, "I estimate that their turnover today should be over one million."

"That much?!" Yang Jinfeng furrowed her brows when she heard this.

"Yes!" The man in the suit nodded and said, "Our section still does not have any new products. I didn't expect that on the very first day of release, they would have the new products. That's the advantage of an official authorized store. That's why their business is so hot."

"It looks like we have to think of a solution!" Yang Jinfeng narrowed her eyes.

"What's the plan?" The man in the suit asked curiously.

"Find the person in charge on their side to see if they have any intention to sell," Yang Jinfeng said. "I'm planning to buy them out."

"That..." The man in the suit was startled, and he said awkwardly: "Director Yang, if it were me, I probably wouldn't want to be bought out either."

"But what if I offer double the price?" Yang Jinfeng narrowed her eyes.

"That..." Upon hearing this, the man in the suit said, "That might be negotiable, but it would be a losing deal for us. To buy them out at double the price, we'd need several years to break even. Moreover, the provincial city is only so big, the market is limited, and it can easily become saturated. Aside from the official authorized stores, there are many small grey market vendors.

Director Yang, you should also consider the costs when buying out."

"Don't worry," Yang Jinfeng said with a slight upward curve of her mouth. "If I buy them out, I'll unhesitatingly knock down all the other grey market vendors, squeeze them out of the market. Once we monopolize, then I'll start making a profit!"

The man in the suit realized at once. This was the exceptional method Yang Jinfeng used in business. Enjoy exclusive content from empire

"Understood, I got it," Yang Jinfeng immediately nodded.

......

In the afternoon, Xiao Han and Big Fatty both changed into the store's staff uniforms, black pants, red shirts, with a large Apple logo printed on the chest. They greeted customers in the store together.

Indeed, the store was very busy, and from Yang Lu to the employees, everyone was so occupied they barely had time to drink water.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Zihan and Yang Xiaoyan entered the specialty store.

"Xiao Han?" Chen Zihan recognized Xiao Han at a glance.

"Zi Han?" Xiao Han turned around to see Chen Zihan in a pink long down coat and flashed a brilliant smile, "You're here?"

"You… Didn't you have something to do this afternoon?" Chen Zihan asked, puzzled.

"Right, I'm here part-time," Xiao Han smiled and then explained, "I came here for an interview the other day, and Manager Yang allowed me to work here part-time on weekend afternoons."

"So that's why," Chen Zihan felt relieved.

"Are you here to buy a computer?" Xiao Han asked curiously.

"Yeah!" Chen Zihan nodded.

"Which model do you want?" an eager female clerk chimed in.

"The latest model of Apple computer, the one that was just released recently," Chen Zihan hurriedly said.

"Miss, I'm really sorry, we just sold out!" the female clerk said helplessly, "How about... you place a preorder, and we'll go to the provincial city to pick up the stock in a few days, we'll call you once it arrives. What do you think?"

"Forget it," Chen Zihan shook her head.

"Why not buy it again?" Yang Xiaoyan asked curiously.

"It's a bit expensive, I can't bring myself to buy it!" Chen Zihan smiled, then looked at Xiao Han and said, "Xiao Han, can you come out for a moment? I have something to tell you!"

Xiao Han was stunned.

"What are you hesitating for?" Big Fatty glared at him and said, "Go on!"

After that, Xiao Han followed Chen Zihan outside, while Big Fatty took Xiaoyan's hand and laughed honestly.

Outside, the cold wind was howling. The store was warm, and Xiao Han was wearing only a thin long-sleeve shirt. However, he didn't feel very cold. On the contrary, the sight of Chen Zihan kindled a warm feeling in his heart.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Xiao Han, won't working here waste your time?" Chen Zihan asked.

"Not at all," Xiao Han shook his head, "Besides, I'm only here on weekend afternoons."

"Then... how much money do you make each day?" Chen Zihan asked.

"One hundred and fifty!" Xiao Han casually made up a number.

Chen Zihan carefully took out a stack of cash from her pocket, then looked up at Xiao Han and said, "I have eight thousand yuan here, which I originally planned to spend on an Apple computer. But I've changed my mind now. I want to use this eight thousand yuan to buy all of your weekends until the end of the college entrance exam!"

Xiao Han was taken aback and asked, "Why?"

"Because I don't want you to work part-time outside, I want you to study diligently and prepare seriously for the college entrance exam." Chen Zihan said earnestly, and her serious expression was actually somewhat cute, which made Xiao Han's heart bloom with joy.

"Zi Han, actually... working part-time here doesn't affect me..."

Before Xiao Han could finish, Chen Zihan shook her head firmly and said, "No, if you waste time on things other than studying, then it affects your academics. It's something that will impact your future, your life."

"I..." Xiao Han was somewhat at a loss, never having imagined that Chen Zihan would do such a thing. He was deeply moved.

"Take it," Chen Zihan insisted, "This eight thousand yuan, consider it as me buying your weekends from now on. And I'll check on you from time to time to see if you're studying hard."

"Thank you!" All the emotion in Xiao Han's heart turned into a simple thank you.

"Hehe!" Chen Zihan giggled, "Then I'm leaving first, I have things to do at home. Tonight is my birthday party, you must come, okay?"

After speaking, Chen Zihan pulled Yang Xiaoyan and left the Apple authorized store.

Big Fatty looked at Xiao Han with a wistful gaze.

"Sigh, you're really lucky, my boy," Big Fatty chuckled, "I didn't expect Chen Zihan to be such a deeply affectionate woman. Xiao Han, I always felt you weren't a good match for Chen Zihan, and you weren't from the same social class. But now, I think you're worthy of her. With your ability and talent, you've far surpassed her. So go ahead, love boldly, pursue her... Hey, hey, I...

crap, don't leave!"

Xiao Han turned and went back into the store.

"Are you really going tonight?" Big Fatty asked curiously.

"I wasn't planning to, since it's a place for rich people to show off," Xiao Han smiled, "But I've changed my mind now. I will go. And I want to deliver the gift to Zi Han's hands myself. I want everyone to know that Chen Zihan is mine!"
