Chapter 240 The Vicious Female Supporting Character in the Mind-Reading Novel 50
Li Mengzhi hesitated for a moment, then spoke up to remind her, "Su Su, we don't have any money to buy anything else."
It wasn't that she wanted to spoil the mood; they were genuinely short of money.
Given how much Song Yanlin dotes on Yunqing, he would definitely buy her whatever she wanted to eat. And Yunqing has a huge appetite; once she's eaten the glutinous rice balls, she'll definitely want to eat other snacks as soon as she sees them.
She was worried that Yun Qing would end up eating up all of their group's capital.
She didn't want to end up walking back to the villa, which was a long way.
Fang Xihe quickly said, "It's alright, it's just a bowl of glutinous rice balls. Su Su, you eat it! We can order less stock later."
This means that Yun Qing should spend the money they set up themselves.
Regardless of how much capital is left in the end, President Song will definitely make them earn enough money!
Yun Qing turned to look at the two of them and said, "I don't want to eat them, Teacher Fang. Our group is going to sell tangyuan (sweet rice balls), have you forgotten?"
Fang Xihe slapped his forehead. He'd been so engrossed in shipping the couple that he'd completely forgotten!
Their group is indeed going to sell glutinous rice balls.
"So, you're observing and learning?"
Yun Qing nodded. "I'm not very good at cooking. I can manage to make do for myself, but if I'm going to sell it, it can't be undercooked or the skin can't be broken!"
Fang Xihe quickly came over and said, "Then I'll learn too."
Stall owner: ...
You want to learn my skills and steal my business, and you actually said it to my face?
While Yun Qing and Fang Xihe were craning their necks to study diligently, Song Yanlin started chatting with the stall owner.
Only Li Mengzhi seemed unsure of what to do, standing there somewhat awkwardly.
She felt a pang of regret for her haste in stopping Yun Qing.
Yun Qing is no longer an unknown 18th-tier celebrity. Now, her pairing with Song Yanlin is very popular, and she has gained a lot of fans. Right now, her fans are probably cursing her.
Li Mengzhi was overthinking it. Yun Qing's fans weren't that scary; they wouldn't curse at her for just one sentence.
Wouldn't that just bring trouble to Yun Qing?
After chatting with the boss for a few minutes, Song Yanlin called to Yun Qing and the others, "Let's go."
Yun Qing quickly grabbed him, "Wait, wait, let me take another look."
Song Yanlin patted her head and said, "Go get the goods first, I'll teach you in a bit."
Yun Qing immediately followed him, "Can you do it? But we're not in the same group!"
Song Yanlin glanced at her. "Now you know the benefits of being in my group?"
Yun Qing: ...Do you have to be so vengeful?
"So next time the production team separates us, I'll wail and cry?"
Song Yanlin curled his lips into a smile, then suppressed it, "That's more like it."
Yun Qing: ...
I was just saying, and you actually took it seriously!
Song Yanlin explained, "I've already discussed it with Miss Li. I'll be in charge of sourcing the goods, and she'll be in charge of selling them."
"After I finish receiving the goods, I'll come to your place. I won't help you, I'll just keep you company."
Actually, if he had replaced one of his teammates, the two groups could have cooperated and achieved a win-win situation. But it just so happens to be Li Mengzhi, and he doesn't want Yun Qing to get too close to her.
[Ahhhhh, President Song had already planned this out! No wonder he divided the work with Li Mengzhi from the beginning. I naively thought he just didn't like Li Mengzhi, which was why he was so cold to her.]
Seriously! I'm so upset! This domineering CEO is so good at following the rules; he even promised not to lift a finger to help!
But didn't Song Yanlin promise his wife he'd teach her how to cook glutinous rice balls? Isn't that breaking the rules?
[What are the ingredients mentioned above? How does simply talking break the rules? The guests all have phones; they could have easily learned from the videos on their phones. President Song personally teaching Su Su was just for fun, understand?]
[I told you guys not to take it too seriously. Only the last place gets punished. As long as you're not last, earning a little more or less doesn't really matter.]
Friendship first, competition second. I don't think there's anything wrong with the guests helping each other out! As long as they have fun, that's all that matters!
After following Song Yan for a while, Yun Qing remembered to ask, "Where are we going?"
"Let's go to the supermarket. The shop owner just said there's a small supermarket up ahead. Let's go there directly to buy our goods."
Yun Qing nodded without asking any further questions.
Li Mengzhi, being quite sensible, cautiously spoke up from behind, "President Song, wouldn't it be more expensive to buy goods from the supermarket?"
Yun Qing turned to look at her and said, "You can trust Song Yanlin's intelligence."
Fang Xihe nodded in agreement.
Li Mengzhi: ...Is this a matter of intelligence?
She doesn't deny that Song Yanlin, as the head of the Song Group, must be very good at making money, but he probably has never been involved in a business worth a hundred or two hundred yuan since birth.
If it were a project worth one or two hundred million, she wouldn't be worried at all, but for a small business worth one or two hundred, she didn't really trust Song Yanlin.
Let alone selling things at a stall, has he ever bought anything from a stall?
Born into a wealthy family, Song Yanlin probably doesn't have the common sense of life that ordinary people should have.
However, Yun Qing and Fang Xihe seemed to treat him like a god, trusting him unconditionally. She hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything more.
Although many revelations about her and Fei Xiao have surfaced online, thwarting Fei Xiao's plan to salvage his career by stepping on her, and many people have called Fei Xiao a scumbag, there are still quite a few people criticizing her as well.
Especially Fei Xiao's irrational fans, who chase after her and hurl insults all day long.
There are four of them now. The other three don't think there's a problem, but she has so many opinions. Maybe the audience will think she's doing it on purpose, trying to show her difference and steal the spotlight.
She didn't want to attract any more criticism; the other three had quite a few fans now, and she couldn't afford to offend them.
Song Yanlin was particularly fond of Yun Qing's trust and protection. He secretly rubbed her fingers before saying to her, "You saw it too, the owner makes the glutinous rice balls himself, but it's not realistic for you and Teacher Fang to make and sell the glutinous rice balls yourself. You'll be too busy and probably won't make much money."
“We can only buy ready-made food to cook. I just talked to the owner. There are indeed supply channels for frozen foods like this, but the distance is quite far. If we order a small amount, they won't deliver. We have to pick up the goods ourselves.”
“This involves the issue of transportation costs and time. It’s just a small business worth a hundred yuan. If we add transportation costs, the cost will double. We don’t have that much money, and it will also waste time and affect subsequent sales. It’s better to just buy from a small supermarket.”
"If it sells quickly, we can continue to buy more stock to make up for the lack of capital."
Yun Qing nodded repeatedly, her eyes sparkling with admiration.
Song Yanlin: ...I've been in charge of the entire Song Group and I've never seen you admire me this much.
[Laughing and crying! Mr. Song's air of complete control over everything—even though it's just a hundred-dollar deal, I have the illusion that he's talking about a project worth hundreds of millions.]
[As expected of someone who can control the entire Song Group, even with a small business I've never been involved in before, they can quickly grasp the necessary information and make the most reasonable plans.]
[Hahaha, Su Su's adoring gaze is like she thinks President Song has doubled the assets of the Song Group.]
