Chapter 229: Chapter 134: Are you thinking of freelancing on me again?

Fudan, the best university in Hu Hai.In the past, whenever my family talked about it, they would always add Fudan after Tsinghua and Peking University.

Zhu Yulan drove straight into the campus gate.

Students from such top-tier institutions seemed to have grown accustomed to luxury cars and the like.

After all, those who could study here were either geniuses or had the power of money.

Zhu Yulan drove directly to a street behind the school, which looked like a commercial street within the campus.

There were quite a few shops on both sides.

Zhu Yulan parked her car in front of an office.

After getting out, she entered the shop.

The interior of the shop was exquisitely decorated.

Only, there were hardly any people inside.

"Lan sister... Boss, you're back."

A girl with a round face, wearing black-framed glasses, who looked pretty cute, came over.

"Mm, make me a cup of tea, please."

Zhu Yulan nodded her head and led Xu Musen into the office.

Xu Musen looked around; the office was only about sixty or seventy square meters but was nicely decorated. Searᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

It had the feel of a professional office building.

The round-faced girl brought over a pot of tea and poured it for the two of them.

Xu Musen, however, glanced around the store.

[Boss Direct Hire]

Xu Musen saw the store sign and couldn't help but smile.

"What are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with the sign?" Zhu Yulan asked.

"Nothing's wrong with it, it's quite to the point and the selling point is clear, but I think, could you maybe change 'boss' to 'BOSS'?" Xu Musen pondered for a moment, and couldn't help but think that mixing Chinese and English in brand names could actually be pretty cool.

"BOSS?"

Zhu Yulan muttered to herself, "It's not that I haven't thought about it, but I just feel like it might not be quite serious enough?"

Xu Musen shook his head with a smile, "If you're determined to make the first career-seeking app for university students, then you have to close the distance with the students. The word 'boss' just feels too old-fashioned.

It might be better to use 'BOSS,' which actually means the same thing, but it could also give students the feeling of 'defeating a BOSS in a game.' It creates a more relaxed atmosphere, is helpful for closing the distance, and is also more memorable."

Xu Musen shared his idea.

In fact, when university students look for jobs nowadays, many of them prefer lower salaries as long as the company has a good atmosphere, weekends off, and no pretentious leadership.

The young people are honestly having a tough time reshaping the job market, but slacking off is still doable.

Zhu Yulan's eyes lit up as she listened; the more she thought about it, the more sense it made. She looked up at the round-faced girl and said, "Xiao Tao, hurry up and get me an application form. Let's get this name registered at the business office first."

Xu Musen paused with his tea halfway to his mouth, looking at the energetic girl before him.

Good grief, just yesterday you poached my employee right in front of me, and now you're rushing to register the store name.

You're something else.

The employee named Xiao Tao was stumped for a moment, looking between her boss and the man in front of her.

She felt her boss changed her mind too quickly.

"Boss, is this really okay…"

"What's not okay? Hurry up and go," Zhu Yulan looked at her, and don't forget who pays your salary.

"Oh."

The girl nodded and quickly turned to leave.

"You really have a way with things," Xu Musen couldn't help saying.

Zhu Yulan snorted, "Who asked you to trick me before? This is called returning the courtesy."

Thinking back to the last incident with the banner ad and the lemon water, all that was him freeload off her!

Xu Musen laughed, "It's just a brand name. I have plenty in my head; it's not important."

He decided not to quibble over it.

"How's business here?" Xu Musen asked, observing various recruitment posters and part-time job ads in the store, but it seemed not many people were looking.

"Not many people; mainly, it seems that university students really dislike intermediaries, always afraid that I will scam their money," Zhu Yulan sounded a bit discouraged. A recruitment platform was really about public trust.

Zhu Yulan had the resources; her family's business was flourishing in Hu Hai and even supported many small and micro enterprises.

If she wanted to, it wouldn't be difficult to get resources from business owners into the store.

But the problem now was that the students did not trust her.

Some City 8 used to be all the rage, but later on, all sorts of riffraff infiltrated it, with rampant cheating and trickery.

There were even extreme cases; someone joined a company only to be taken on a so-called team-building trip to Yunnan and ended up being sent to a park in Myanmar to become a 'blood bag.'

Moreover, many viewed recruitment platforms as middlemen, fearing they would take a cut of their salary.

What was most important now was to get off to a good start and build a reputation.

"How about I give you another idea?" Xu Musen spoke up.

"What is it?"

Zhu Yulan, seeing his cheerful smile, couldn't shake the feeling that he might take advantage of her.

Ignoring the wariness in her eyes, Xu Musen said with a smile, "What you need now is the first group of people brave enough to eat crabs. I'm about to start a food delivery service here and will definitely need to hire a lot of runners and such. I'll give you that outlet. To get a job with me, you must register through your APP platform. How does that sound?"

Zhu Yulan considered the idea; it really seemed like a good one. At this initial stage, the most important thing was to become well-known.

At the very least, people on campus needed to know that her platform was trustworthy.

"Would you really be so kind?"

"Of course, since we're going to collaborate, I don't mind taking a bit of a loss," Xu Musen smiled brightly.

But Zhu Yulan pondered for a moment and felt something was off. Wait a minute!
