Chapter 18: If You Have Difficulties, Find Jiang Qin

It was midsummer, and the weather was unbearably hot.

It felt as if the heavens had placed an invisible steamer over Jeju City. Even if you did nothing at all, just standing there would make you sweat profusely.

At that moment, Jiang Qin, who had tanned deeply from the sun, stood at the entrance of the traffic police brigade. He had his newly obtained driver's license in his pocket and then took a taxi to the bank to withdraw 270,000 RMB in cash.

This was a decision he had made earlier.

He intended to use this money to explore the depths of various industries to determine his direction for entrepreneurship, so as not to go down too many wrong paths.

To be honest, 270,000 RMB could last a long time if spent recklessly, but it was far from enough for doing business.

So, Jiang Qin wasn't focused on making money; it was more like an adventure for him. He wanted to hear industry insiders talk about the inside stories, and he wanted to keep his passion for entrepreneurship alive.

On July 21st, Jiang Qin contacted Huang Ying's mother, a classmate from the same class, and purchased a batch of slimming injections and hyaluronic acid products from abroad.

He bought them at 150 RMB each and planned to sell them for 899 RMB each after selling them to beauty salons.

Although the beauty industry wasn't as booming in 2008, looking at the state of the medical aesthetics industry in the future, he knew this was definitely a highly profitable business. As long as women cared about their beauty, this industry would always thrive.

On July 22nd, he was reading financial news and suddenly saw that Nongfu Spring was looking for new advertising slogans and offering a reward of 300,000 RMB. Jiang Qin opened his email and wrote, "We don't produce water; we are just the porters of nature," and left his phone number.

The next day, he received a call from an unknown number.

The person on the other end claimed to be the manager of Nongfu Spring's advertising department. First, they expressed their gratitude and then asked for his bank account number.

When the notification of the payment arrived on his phone, Jiang Qin suddenly felt like he had found money and thought that rebirth was indeed a joyful experience.

On July 24th, Jiang Qin invested in a lamb soup restaurant owned by his classmate Yang Shu'an's family and acquired a 30% stake.

According to his memory, Yang Shu'an's father was renowned for his culinary skills in Jeju, and five years later, they had even opened branches in the neighboring city. It was a profitable and risk-free business.

Jiang Qin didn't have much interest in investing in a shop, but he wanted to secretly learn the secret formula. In the end, he found a package of Three Flowers evaporated milk in the cupboard.

On July 29th, the driving instructor mentioned that he was representing a certain medication, promising a tenfold profit. Hearing that Jiang Qin had money, he wanted to get him involved.

Jiang Qin was interested but cautious about the business that came to him. So he conducted a private investigation and discovered that the driving instructor's wife was involved in a pyramid scheme. He promptly reported it.

On August 6th, with the Olympics about to begin, Jiang Qin hired ten people from the labor market to sell national flags and Fuwa dolls along the streets.

All the money he earned was used to pay wages, and he even invested an additional 1,500 yuan. But looking at the streets filled with red, Jiang Qin felt happy.

Time passed quickly, and half a month went by.

Jiang Qin felt that he had gained a lot.

The medical aesthetics industry was indeed profitable, but the upfront costs were high. The food and beverage industry was stable and profitable, but it required a lack of conscience; otherwise, the probability of losses was high.

Additionally, labor costs had to be considered.

At the beginning of entrepreneurship, you had to figure out how to make customers pay for labor costs instead of bearing the risk yourself.

For example, selling national flags, with a cost of five mao and selling for three yuan, resulted in paying more when giving out wages.

The most important thing was never to trust business opportunities that came to your door, as you could easily get into unexpected difficulties.

Jiang Qin truly enjoyed doing business, even if he lost money, he found it very interesting.

Why didn't I think of doing business in my past life?

Meanwhile, in the Class 32 group of high school seniors who had just received their admission notices, there was also a sense of restlessness.

Their restlessness was different from Jiang Qin's; he had expectations for business, while they were simply feeling empty.

"Hey everyone, we've received our admission notices. Should we go out together?"

"I think we should. The summer vacation is too long, and staying at home is so boring. I've been wanting to go out with someone for a while."

"Are there any fun places? Maybe we can plan a trip together!"

"I heard there's a bar across from the fire department. A bunch of people gathering there, watching the Olympics and drinking. We should go and experience it!"

As the chat continued, more and more classmates joined the group conversation.

To be honest, the vacation after the college entrance examination lasts for three months. Just staying at home can get really boring, so many people have the desire to go out.

In the past, we didn't dare to go out because of our studies, and the pressure of the college entrance examination was suffocating. Now that we have time, what's the harm in being a bit wild in our youth?

Chu Siqi: "I'm a bit fed up too. Count me in if we're going out."

Qin Ziang: "Siqi is going too? Then count me in as well."

Yu Shasha: "I'm in too, I haven't been to a bar before. When are we going?"

"Forget it, we went a few days ago, but couldn't get in without a reservation."

"Yeah, that bar is really popular now, packed every day. I heard even if you pay, you can't get a seat. How can we poor students compete for seats with those adults?"

Guo Zihang: "Are you guys talking about the Night Glow Bar?"

Qin Ziang: "How do you know about it?"

Guo Zihang: "Actually, you can ask Jiang Qin to make a reservation."

"..."

"????"

Guo Zihang's sudden statement left the whole group bewildered.

What does it mean to ask Jiang Qin for a reservation? Everyone can't get a seat, but Jiang Qin can? Does he have connections?

Qin Ziang: "Haha, Jiang Qin? He's not selling boxed lunches, is he working as a bartender at a bar?"

Yu Shasha: "This guy must be desperate for money, right? How poor is his family? Why is he doing everything?"

Guo Zihang: "He's not a bartender. He rented half of a bar, and organizing a collective Olympics viewing event was his idea. But later, it became so popular that the bar owner handed over the entire operation to him."

Chu Siqi: "How much does it cost to rent half a bar?"

Guo Zihang: "Including the venue and drinks, it seems he spent around 300,000."

"..."

Yu Shasha: "Are you kidding me? How could he possibly have 300,000? I know you guys are good buddies, but there should be some limit to bragging."

Guo Zihang: "What am I bragging about? I was at Night Glow Bar yesterday watching the opening ceremony, and I didn't spend a dime."

Huang Ying: "Guo Zihang is not bragging. Jiang Qin partnered with my mom a few days ago to import a batch of 500,000 beauty needles. He contributed 100,000."

Yang Shuan: "My family's lamb soup restaurant opened a branch. If you can't go to the bar, no worries, you can come to my lamb soup restaurant!"

Chu Siqi: "Let's focus on the main topic. Why are you advertising, Yang Shuan?"

Yang Shuan: "Jiang Qin also invested in my family's lamb soup restaurant branch. I don't know how much, but it's definitely over 100,000. I even call him 'Uncle' now."

Guo Zihang: "Why are you calling him 'Uncle'?"

Yang Shuan: "On the day we signed the contract, Jiang Qin and my dad got drunk, both of them were completely confused, insisted on becoming sworn brothers, and no one could persuade them."
