Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 1110 Just don't amuse yourself.

It has to be said that this Sichuan girl is quite clever; she managed to find the only sure way to make a profit, which is pretty impressive.

It just doesn't sound very good, and it's a bit ugly.

But compared to him personally trading stocks, that couldn't be safer.

"No, no, are you that free?" Miss Yuan asked with a pained expression.

Upon hearing this, Chuanmei spread her hands and said, "What else can I do? I've been so idle this month. The class monitor and the others still have to write papers. There are a third fewer works than last month. Judging from the situation, I may not be able to update before the end of the month. I have to find something to do!"

I've been doing more live streams these past few days, and recently I've even been asked to place ads in my streams. I'm debating whether to accept the offer.

"Of course, live-streaming e-commerce is out of the question. Although it can be profitable, the industry is too murky, and I can't handle it. The 'three-two-one' setup... I'm afraid my fans might buy counterfeit goods and then boycott me. Wouldn't that ruin my reputation?"

"You're really something else," Miss Yuan exclaimed.

Wang: "Holy crap, Chuanzi, pull me up, pull me up!"

Squad leader: "Exactly! You forgot about your brothers when something like this happened? That's so wrong of you!"

He Xiaoyue: "Hurry up, hurry up! Although I don't know how to trade stocks, I'm super fast at grabbing red envelopes, you know what I mean by an electric motor!"

Class monitor: "Just don't entertain yourself!"

He Xiaoyue: ? ? ?

Everyone:

The sudden driving caused both Chuanmei and Wang Chu, the two men, to blush. This woman always spoke without thinking; didn't she see there were men present?

At this moment, all the three of them could see was what Chuanmei had said: that she had already snatched more than four thousand yuan worth of goods this month.

Well, you have to understand that their basic salary is only 5,000 yuan. The rest depends on the revenue sharing from the Wangcai account and other bonuses, so the extra 4,000 yuan a month is still very tempting for them.

However, in the end, Chuanmei did not invite three people. It was not that she did not want to invite people, but that these groups are managed by group owners, and you have to verify whether you are involved in stock trading before you can join.

Although the Sichuan girl had been involved in a scam, she still met the entry requirements and was considered a "high-quality stock." The group owner would occasionally reveal some so-called insider information and sell courses, which was profitable. They wouldn't just recruit people casually.

I didn't expect the Sichuan girl to get stuck with a bug here, only grabbing but not touching anything, that's just too hilarious.

It's obvious that the class monitor and the others aren't qualified, since they've never been involved in stock trading before. Of course, they can join the group, but they have to buy one of their courses first.

Faced with this situation where money had to be spent before any profit was made, the three immediately gave up, thinking it was utter garbage.

Soon, everyone went to have lunch, and in the afternoon they continued writing their papers. Chuanmei played games with Miss Yuan for a while, and then went to organize her materials.

Although he works slower by himself, there are still several days left until the end of the month. He should release another work, even if it's not for advertising revenue, he should at least maintain the buzz.

Lin Mo didn't drive back to the neighborhood until 4 PM. There was no other way; the old man had given him a special meal today. As soon as he opened the door upstairs, he saw Liu Ruyan already sitting on the sofa, looking radiant.

"Oh my, it's Friday today. You're leaving get off work early?" Lin Mo asked, somewhat surprised.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan chuckled and said, "The company is already on track. It's not like I have to stay until the end of the workday to leave. Isn't it normal for me to come back early?"

"Yeah, is everything settled with my cousin?" Lin Mo asked while changing his shoes. Liu Ruyan nodded: "More or less, but she'll have to figure out the specifics herself. But with Ding Lei, the old hand, around, reopening shouldn't be a problem."

Now that you have the elders to help, and your start-up capital is in place, you can start operating once you have enough staff. Have you seen the payroll Su Su sent you?

"I've looked at it, no problem. Since it's your decision, just do it. Anyway, I don't understand this stuff," Lin Mo said indifferently.

He looked at the employee payroll, and this was the first time he had his own employees besides the kitchen helper.

As for the other waiters in the restaurant, they were temporary workers and didn't count. But he had to pay all the hotel staff monthly, regardless of whether they made money or not. He had to send them their salaries every month, which put him under some pressure.

After all, doing business naturally involves risks. Fortunately, Liu Ruyan kept telling him that the probability of his hotel losing money was extremely small, unless there was another natural disaster or city lockdown, when people stayed at home and no one came to stay. Otherwise, he would almost never lose money.

"You seem to have it easy. Su Su and I discussed it until midnight last night. However, hotels are different from restaurants. Because they were closed before, even if they reopen, the number of customers won't be very high for a while."

We need to gradually recover our strength, but we don't need that many people. We can continue operating while hiring as needed.

"Of course, the start-up capital you transfer will need to be used for employee salaries and some advertising during this period. As long as you can cover the hotel's operating costs within the first two months, it will be considered a success. After two months, when the peak tourist season arrives, that's when you'll start making money," Liu Ruyan said.

Lin Mo nodded. It was already very clear: an initial investment with no immediate returns. This was a heads-up to him.

"Yeah, let's give it a try. I believe my cousin can do it!" Lin Mo said with a smile.

The two then sat on the sofa and chatted about what had happened in the past two days. When Liu Ruyan learned that he had finished his thesis, she couldn't help but smile and praised him.

Is completing a thesis a big deal? Of course not, and for Liu Ruyan, it's not even worth mentioning. But she's talking to her boyfriend, so she naturally has to give him plenty of emotional support.

After all, given Lin Mo's current status as a student, you can't expect to hear him talk about his company going public or investing in some big project.

"Yuanyuan guessed correctly, it should be as she said. This was my oversight, I forgot to tell you, you don't need to answer the phone, and you don't need to pay attention to anyone who comes to visit."

These people are either trying to get you to invest or recommending some kind of financial product; it's all pointless.

Your money has already been secured by a bank. The only thing they'll do is poach your money. As for investments, the vast majority of them are not very good.

"I'll find someone to help you resolve this tomorrow," Liu Ruyan nodded.

It's clear that Liu Ruyan has far more experience than him in having this kind of information displayed on someone's desk.

After all, Comrade Liu and Ms. Cheng have long met the requirements, and they don't have anything urgent to do, so they don't need so many calls coming in at once.

Of course, there are still occasional visitors, but they generally ignore them and only attend dinners they can't refuse and invest in necessary projects.

Not every project you have to invest in will make money, and most of them will even lose money. But there are some projects that you have to invest in even if you know you'll lose money, otherwise you'll have no place at a certain poker table.

It may seem like you're losing money, but you're actually buying the right to sit at this table.

Every industry has its own rules. Business competition isn't always about fighting and killing; once you reach a certain level, it becomes more about interpersonal relationships and social dynamics.
