Chapter 153: Chapter 109: Supporting my man's first business venture, of course. _2

"You want to rent?"

The boss looked at him in surprise, "I remember you're a freshman this year, right?"

He had seen many university students start businesses, but most of them had failed.

Moreover, it was usually juniors or seniors who started businesses, so it was the first time he saw a freshman embarking on this path.

"As the saying goes, make hay while the sun shines. I am serious about renting this shop. Boss, what's the lowest price you can give? I can pay in cash all at once."

Xu Musen didn't beat around the bush with him, and since the boss was a straight shooter, it seemed like a perfect match.

The boss looked at this young man and after thinking for a while, he said, "I think you should think it over carefully. Money does not come easily. It's great for a young person to want to start a business, but you should take it step by step."

The boss started off with some heartfelt advice.

Xu Musen smiled, "I have thought it through, everyone has to take a first step in life, and I believe in myself."

The boss saw his confidence and decided not to say much else. After some thought he said, "The shop still has half a year left on the lease. Rent plus the transfer fee, I'll let it go for... ninety thousand."

As the boss spoke, he watched the young man in front of him, and the girl sitting in a wheelchair behind him.

The price he quoted was even lower than his initial expectation.

Indeed, he was a decent person.

He was fair, and so Xu Musen was even more so.

"Let's make it one hundred thousand, cash. I can sign the contract with you within the next few days."

Xu Musen spoke with a smile, voluntarily raising the price.

The boss was stunned, as this was the first time he'd seen someone voluntarily offer a higher price.

Though his shop's transfer price would normally be one hundred thousand, that amount in cash was no small figure.

"Be sure you've thought this through," the boss finally said.

Xu Musen nodded, "However, I have one more request. I need a large amount of lemonade these next few days, the cheapest kind will do. Could you help me make it in bulk? Whatever the price, I'll settle it with you."

"What do you need money for that? I've been wondering how to deal with all these raw materials with nowhere to go, so this is the perfect chance to clear out the stockroom. Lemonade is easy to make."

The boss also spoke with a laugh, and the two discussed further and decided to finalize the contract in the upcoming days.

With that, most of the preparations for the startup were completed.

"Here's your fruit tea and lemonade, and I'll throw in two strawberry ice creams."

The boss smiled as he handed over the ice creams and didn't even charge for the drinks.

"Say thank you."

Xu Musen looked at An Nuannuan who had bright, sparkling eyes next to him.

"Thank you, boss!" An Nuannuan said her thanks in a funny way.

The boss chuckled, "What a cute girl, is she your girlfriend?"

"Not yet."

Xu Musen handed the ice cream to An Nuannuan.

They were still just friends.

After all, they hadn't even held hands yet!

Chuckling, the boss watched the pair of youngsters, thinking that adolescence is sweet not just because of being in love. Continue reading on m|v-l'e m,p| y- r

It's actually the sweetest during the period before love, when both people harbor their own thoughts, carefully, and tentatively testing each other with affection and caution.

Watching the two figures slowly walk away.

The boss sighed, reminiscing about running under the setting sun—that too was the youth he'd once had.

"Boss, a jasmine honey tea, please."

"Coming right up~"

...

The next day.

Bright and early, Xu Musen scurried off to Bai Xin's office.

"Auntie Bai, could you do me another favor?"

"What is it?"

Bai Xin now felt a bit of a headache whenever she heard him say such things.

This kid was definitely not afraid of troubling others.

"You're my business consultant now. I have a motivational meeting with the staff later, could you come and support it?"

Xu Musen brazenly asked.

Among the part-time errand runners recruited, there were still quite a few sophomores.

Today was about finally meeting them and holding a pep talk, where Bai Xin's presence would significantly boost the credibility.

"Why should I help you?" Bai Xin rolled her eyes.

"Because Auntie Bai, you're not only beautiful and generous, but also kindhearted, caring for students, understanding of the younger generation, truly a beacon in my life, the helmsman of my dreams..."

"Stop, just make me coffee every day.

Bai Xin cut off his flattery.

This kid was full of sweet talk, but he did have a good technique for making coffee.

"No problem! Even if you didn't agree, I would still love to make it for you!"

Xu Musen patted his chest.

There, he'd secured this mentor-level bigwig.

Shortly after, Xu Musen and Bai Xin went to the activity classroom, where over twenty people had already taken their seats for the part-time job.

Only three were girls.

When Xu Musen appeared, there was some whispering among the attendees, none of them expecting the boss they were about to work for to look so young.

"Isn't he too young? Moreover, we've never seen him before, could he be a freshman?" Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"How reliable is this? There's been a freshman who started a business before, and it went bankrupt so fast they couldn't even pay the wages."

"Let's wait and see..."

People are like this; it's hard to take orders from someone younger than themselves.

Xu Musen had anticipated this kind of situation. As Bai Xin entered the room, the whispering quieted down immediately.

With Bai Xin's presence, even if she barely spoke, the students still had a lot of respect for teachers.

Xu Musen used a PPT to explain the salary structure, some tips for taking orders, the assigned areas for each person, as well as some specific reward and punishment measures.

Of course, he didn't forget to entice them with promises.

Like saying more work brings more earnings, with unlimited potential, but as everyone knows.

Those who say salaries range from three to eight thousand will definitely just start you at three thousand.
