914, delicate fragrance
Chen Xiang and Wu Xue are both sophomores in the Russian department, and their families are very poor. At the beginning of this semester, the students in the same dormitory who are flexible but not short of money gave them advice to them to sell dictionaries to freshmen in their freshmen. The Oxford Dictionary, which was originally priced at 75 per book, went to Caiyuanba Book Wholesale Market to wholesale at 15% off, and then sold them to freshmen at the original price. One dictionary can earn 11.25 yuan. One dictionary costs more than ten yuan, ten books are more than one hundred, and one hundred books is more than one thousand, so it is a very good business. But the action should be fast, because the business is very simple and does not cost, it is short and fast, and it can be effective in two or three days, so there must be many people doing this business.
The two thanked the senior sister who told them how to make money, and after they made money to invite the senior sister to dinner, they began to implement it closely.
First, I went to Caiyuanba Book Wholesale Market to check out to see if I could get the goods at 150% off. The two of them didn’t even have time to eat lunch, so they brought their bus cards and ran towards the school gate. The main school gate outside C was the starting point of bus No. 210 directly to Caiyuanba terminal.
The results of the inspection were no different from what the senior sister told them. The two were overjoyed and immediately started to act after returning to school. Outside C recruited one or two thousand freshmen every year, and whether they were from the English department or not, they almost had to buy an Oxford Dictionary. Not to mention too much, if they could successfully sell to one-tenth of students, it would be an income of one or two thousand, and the two would share it equally, save some money, and a semester would be enough.
However, ideals are full, reality is skinny. When they knock on the door of the dormitory with freshmen, most of the freshmen faced their hesitant and unskilled sales, most of them had an uncertain doubt and said they needed to consider it; or they regretfully told them that someone had already sold them and they had placed an order; or they said that they could buy it from them, but they had to pay on delivery; or they just asked if it could be cheaper. Wu Xue's monthly living expenses are only 200 yuan, and Chen Xiang is even less, only 15 yuan, so how dare they advance money? It is unlikely that the price cut will be made. A dictionary can make about ten yuan, can it be reduced by half and earn five yuan? It takes two hours to go to Caiyuanba, and the fare is four yuan. Moreover, it is reduced to the person in front of you. What should you do if someone has already placed the order before? If others know about it, they will not scold them to death!
As a last resort, we can only abandon those businesses that require cash on delivery and price reduction.
In this way, in the past few days of school, the two of them ran down several girls' dormitories, went upstairs and downstairs, knocking on the doors of one dormitory after another, their feet were running wide, and their mouths were dry, but the results were few. So far, they only received orders from seven or eight dictionaries.
Although the grades are not ideal, I still have to run, otherwise the few yuan fare I spent in Caiyuanba would be wasted for such a few days.
In front is the last dormitory on the third floor. Chen Xiang knocked on the door like she did in front of her, praying to God and Buddha in her heart, opening the door with sesame seeds, praying that after opening the door, one or two free and easy newborns could be met, and that she could add one or two orders to them.
However, the scene after opening the door made the two extremely embarrassed. Chen Xiang didn't expect that there was a boy living in the girls' dormitory. She immediately panicked and instinctively wanted to escape, so she quickly apologized to the other party, pulled Wu Xue's arm and began to flash.
I had already reached the stairs, and suddenly, a voice sounded behind me:
"Hey, two classmates, wait a moment..." Wang Bo rushed out of the dormitory door and shouted at the two girls who were about to go downstairs.
Chen Xiang and Wu Xue turned around and saw a tall, large, at least 1.8 meters tall, wearing glasses, and a gentle and delicate boy coming to them.
"Are you guys doing something?" Wang Bo smiled and looked at the Russian girl in front of him with a calm face, thinking, "Little Rabbit Teeth", I finally saw you again, so happy.
"No... nothing!" Chen Xiang said in a low voice, looking at Wang Bo, lowering her head quickly, her fair and beautiful little face quickly turned red. Although the boy in front of her was just a simple T-shirt and jeans, she instinctively gave her a sense of "unattainable" and was not the same world at all. Not to mention anything else, the pair of blue and white sneakers worn by the other person's feet and the letters "adidas" printed on the side was enough for her to spend a semester.
This made Chen Xiang feel a little ashamed.
In fact, in the previous series of sales, she sniffed out the other party’s extraordinary newborn family from the other party’s dress, and her sales were not very active. She usually simply asked the other party whether they wanted a dictionary. If the other party said no, she would no longer fight for it. She always felt that if she was too active, she would have the meaning of praying for the other party to give alms.
On the contrary, she could see at a glance that the other person's family was average, even if he was better than him, and would not be too many ordinary students. She could communicate with them naturally and smoothly, and actively promote the "Oxford Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary" in her arms.
Obviously, the tall boy in front of him is the type of person she doesn't really want to promote.
Chen Xiang pulled Wu Xue next to her and wanted to ask Wu Xue to leave.
But Wu Xue saw a little business opportunity from Wang Bo's pursuit.
"Classmate, are you freshmen in your first year?" Wu Xue asked with a smile.
"Yes, from the English Department. Senior sister, which department are you from?" Wang Bo smiled.
"How do you know we are senior sisters?" Wu Xue's smile became stronger, and she felt that there was a chance.
Wang Bo pointed at a slightly old book called "Oxford Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary" that Chen Xiang hugged on his chest, saying: "If it weren't for the senior sister, then the dictionary in this classmate's arms should be brand new."
"It's very strong observation." Wu Xue nodded, "We are sophomore in the Russian Department. We are here to ask if you want an English dictionary. The "Oxford Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary" in my classmate is the most used dictionary for students from outside C, especially your English students. It is also the best-selling and authoritative English learning dictionary in China and even the world. It has sold more than 30 million copies so far! It contains more than 184,500 words, phrases and meanings..." Wu Xue began to introduce it to Wang Bo as he knew it, and finally looked at Wang Bo with anticipation, "Classmate, do you need it? If you need it, we can buy it for you."
"Of course, it's necessary, but can I take a look first?" Wang Bo looked at the Oxford dictionary that was tightly held in his arms by a Russian-language girl, and wanted to become that dictionary by herself.
"Yes!" Wu Xue's eyes lit up, and she poked Chen Xiang, who was still at a loss next to her with her hand. "Xiangxiang, please show your dictionary to my junior."
"Ah, OK... give it..." After Wu Xue poked it with her hand, Chen Xiang came to her senses and handed the dictionary in her hand to Wang Bo.
Wang Bo took the dictionary handed over by Chen Xiang, turned on the familiar cover, and the blank space in the center immediately popped up two beautiful black small characters:
Chen Xiang!
It turns out that your name is Chen Xiang!
Wang Bo's heart moved, and he took a deep breath, and a pleasant fragrance came from his nose. I wonder if the fragrance really has its own fragrance or the reason for his psychological effect.
"Well, it seems that there are quite a lot of entries. This is the first time I have turned into such a thick dictionary." Wang Bo casually flipped through Chen Xiang's dictionary and looked carefully while commenting.
At this time, several boys in Wang Bo's dormitory ran out, surrounded Wang Bo, and asked him what he was doing. Wu Xue took the opportunity to start selling to Huang Liang, Wei Shousong, Xue Fei and others.
Chen Xiang also woke up from the initial embarrassment and panic, returned to the salesperson state, looked at Wang Bo, and was still a little afraid to talk to the handsome boy in front of him who looked gentle but had a strong aura, so she walked to the shortest and most harmless Tu Yunliang, and began to talk to Tu Yunliang.
After pretending to look through for a minute, Wang Bo handed the dictionary in his hand back to Chen Xiang. He looked at Chen Xiang's face in his face with both nervous and expectant expressions, smiled slightly, and said in an extremely gentle tone: "Sister Chen Xiang, I'll buy a copy, how much does it cost?"
That's it?
Chen Xiang felt a little incredible. She thought the other party was going to think about it, or bargain, or take the cash-on-delivery terms, just like the scene she encountered countless times not long ago.
But she didn't expect that the boy in front of her was not very dared to approach her. She felt that the other party was so easy to talk and not picky. Chen Xiang suppressed the excitement in her heart and immediately said: "The price of this dictionary is 75 per book, you...you can read it." As if she was worried that Wang Bo would not believe it, she immediately took the back cover of the dictionary in her hand to Wang Bo's eyes.
As Chen Xiang approached so close, the faint fragrance that was lingering on Wang Bo's nose just now appeared again, but this time it became a little stronger. The girl could not use perfume, and the shampoo, soap, etc. they might save money like he did in his previous life. She didn't dare to buy a whole bottle of shampoo, but she only dared to buy a small bag of Haifei Silk or Piao Rou from a 50-cent area, and one bag was used twice.
So, the faint fragrance on the other person's body does not come from external objects, but from the natural body fragrance?
Chen Xiang, Chen Xiang, it’s true that people are as famous!
While thinking about it, Wang Bo took a deep breath again, expanded his chest to feel this annoying fragrance. He had never asked about it in his previous life, and looked at the other person gently and said:
Chapter completed!
