  Chapter 112: The Spendthrift Boss Lady!

  TL: Etude

  On a sunny, clear Friday afternoon, Jiang Qin arrived at the Entrepreneurship ter. As soon as he entered, he entered a girl with straight bangs in the corridor. Wearing an e turtleneck sweater and bck-framed gsses, she cheerfully greeted him as “senior” before entering the main office.

  Jiang Qin was familiar with most people in the building but had never seen this girl. After p, he realized she must be one of those who had repced the senior known for watg TV.

  Newers were ing in twos and threes, mostly juniors. It seemed like Senior Cao had finally made it through and robably freeing up time for her love life.

  Passing by the main office without disturbing the three figures engaged in versation inside, Jiang Qin pushed open the door to Room 208.

  Inside, along with Pang Hai, were Su Nai, Dong Wenhao, Lu Xuemei, Shi Miaomiao, Lu Feiyu, Dong Miaomiao, ahers. They had received Jiang Qin’s message about a meeting and were waiting for his return.

  In Room 208, Jiang Qin wasted no time and got straight to the point.

  “The traffi Lin Uy has reached saturation, and the retention rate is good. The number of advertisers is steadily increasing, so we ease off a bit and don’t o monitor it daily.”

  “We’re about to start promoting at the Uy of Sd Teology. We’ve discussed this before, and I believe everyone is prepared.”

  “I’m still scouting locations for Xi Tian, and while there’s no rush, you should be ready to avoid any st-minute chaos.”

  “The Uy of Sd Teology isn’t far from Lin Uy, so for the preliminary work, I’ve decided to use our own team. You’re already familiar with the petition’s routines and adapt quickly.”

  “If anyone has issues with time or transportatio me know in advance, and I’ll make a note of it.”

  “This initial phase might take about a week, possibly requiring several trips. Transportation and meal allowances will be included in your saries.”

  “Additionally, Su Nai, choose someone from your tech team to temporarily lead it. Dong Wenhao will be in overall charge, coordinating with the promotion pn at the Uy of Sd Teology.”

  “Eh, what about me? What will I do?” Su Nai was armed at suddenly being stripped of her authority.

  Jiang Qin frow her. “What’s the matter, scared? That’s for watg movies in the office every day!”

  Lu Xuemei immediately raised her hand, wanting to defend Su Nai: “Boss, I vouch for Senior Su Nai. She never watched movies in the office. I’ve never heard any sound from her puter!”

  “She watches movies that don’t let others hear the sound.”

  “??????”

  Jiang Qin coughed and brought the versation ba track: “Su Nai, don’t worry. You’re stepping down from the tech group because there’s something else you o do.”

  Relieved yet curious, Su Nai asked, “What is it, boss?”

  “You’ll be w with me on researg another project.”

  “Why suddenly start another project?”

  “Our forum’s moization capability is weak. Our only reveream is advertising, which has its limits. We’re booked until year, and squeezing more out is tough. We o develop a new revenue model. We ’t just sit ae our resources.”

  Jiang Qin didn’t eborate, mainly because he didn’t have a crete p. Not being tech-savvy, his first task was for Su Nai to assess the difficulty. They would then formute a feasible pn.

  “Boss, what’s the dire of the new project?”

  “Group buyie.”

  Su Nai was momentarily taken aback. “Isn’t that the previous project of Room 208? Didn’t it fail?”

  “We definitely ’t follow the old path of the previous group buyie. I’m thinking of something simir but different,” Jiang Qin replied.

  “Oh, I see,” Su Nai nodded, only half-uanding but not asking further. She was used to just doing as Jiang Qin said.

  “, let’s talk about the specifiotional steps for the Zhihu Forum’s project at the Uy of Sd Teology,” Jiang Qin said, tapping his pen oable. “Take notes if you o, and don’t interrupt me until I’m finished.”

  Hearing this, everyo up straight, ready to take notes. After their experieh the Campus Beauty test, they had a good uanding of their boss’s methods.

  The boss’s mind was like a mae, perfectly outlining all dires and possibilities, then the optimal path aails. They just o follow his pn, and they would hit the target.

  “Boss, I o use the restroom first!” Lu Feiyu suddenly stood up.

  Jiang Qin looked annoyed, “Hurry up, there won’t be any breaks ter!”

  “Got it.”

  Lu Feiyu rushed out to the restroom aurned, looking relieved, “Okay, I’m ready. Go ahead!”

  “Am I the boss or are you? You really have no sense of boundaries,” Jiang Qin grumbled, then began to assign tasks.

  “Lann, colleformation on merts he Uy of Sd Teology and summarize it for me.”

  “Old Dong, your main task is to tact the Literature Club at the Uy of Sd Teology, simir to how you were discovered. Find a group of tent creators familiar with their enviro.”

  “Also, the tent team’s ret topics have been too limited to Lin Uy. Stop that for now and look for topics that all uy students would be ied in.”

  “As for the tech department, find a way to optimize the registration system. The currehod is too plicated.”

  Su Nai couldn’t help but speak up, “Boss, phone numbers and emails are essential. If we simplify it further, one person could create tless ats, making ma impossible.”

  “Yistration system doesn’t o require a phone number initially. Just add a rule ter that without a phone number, users ’t post or ent. First, get the registration rate up; retaining users will be the tent team’s !”

  “Oh,” Su Nai responded, a bit disheartened.

  Dong Wenhao felt overwhelmed, thinking, ‘Why am I suddenly responsible for so much without prior notice?’

  “Don’t interrupt me again. I have o point to make…”

  As Jiang Qin eaking, the door to Room 208 creaked open.

  A delicate haly pushed the wooden door, causing Jiang Qin’s expression to instantly darken, his brows furrowed tightly.

  He disliked being interrupted because it also interrupted his own thought process. It was troublesome to pick up where he left off, and he was already irritable from being interrupted once.

  “Jiang Qin.” Feng Nanshu peeked in with her delicate face.

  Jiang Qin paused for a moment, “Why are you here?”

  “I bought some fruit,” Feng Nanshu stepped in, carrying two bags of fruit.

  Hearing this, the employees, still in the meeting, couldn’t sit still anymore. They eagerly approached, calling her “boss dy” and taking the bags from her hands.

  Who would fear the boss when the boss dy was around?

  As they hurriedly opehe bags, they found premium-quality green grapes, mangosteens, strawberries, and pomegranates, all seemingly expensive.

  Feng Nanshu’s hands, slightly reddened and marked from carrying the bags, ched into fists, hidden from view.

  “Feng Nanshu, you’re such a spendth…”

  Jiang Qin halted mid-sentence, quickly retrag the word ‘family’ bato his mouth, his face showing a mixture of relief and panic as he patted his chest. (TL 败 + 家 (family) = spendthrift)

  Meanwhile, Feng Nanshu blinked her clear eyes in fusion, her pretty face filled with bewilderment and inquiry.

  “Didn’t I tell you not to follow Gao Wenhui’s bad example?” Jiang Qin diverted the topic.

  Feng Nanshu looked at him coolly, “I’ve learned how to give fruit, and that’s all I’ve learned from her.”

  “Boss Lady, these green grapes are so sweet!” Shi Miaomiao cheered from the side.

  Enjoying a strawberry, Su Nai felt blissful, “Boss Lady, you should be in charge from now on. The boss hinks of buying us fruit.”

  “Pah, I’m the one who pays your saries. Eat your fruit and keep quiet. Isn’t your mouth busy enough?”

  “Just eating, no talking!” Su Nai defiantly cracked open a pomegranate.

  Jiang Qin looked up at Feng Nanshu, notig she was slightly sweaty, “Did you carry these here yourself?”

  “Yes,” Feng Nanshu nodded obediently.

  “Hand over your living expenses. From now on, I’ll mahem to prevent you from spending recklessly!”

  Feng Nanshu opened her small handbag, took out a pretty pink wallet, and ha to him, “Here.”

  “…”

  Jiang Qin chuckled, quickly adding that he was joking, “Buy if you want to buy. It’s not my money, so I don’t mind at all.”

  Then, Jiang Qin called Xiao Xuandu and his two lieutenants to join the meeting and discuss the weekend team-building pn.

  A week had passed sihe Campus Beauty test, and it was time to fulfill some of the promises made. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough motivation to put in the effort at the Uy of Sd Teology. As the saying goes, to make the horse run, you must feed it first.

  Eventually, everyone unanimously decided to have the team-building session at a rural retreat in the southern suburbs.

  This wasn’t because Jiang Qin was relut to spend money; it was simply that everyo it was impractical to spend the entire weekend traveling for a short team-building activity.

  “Feng Nanshu, we’re going out this weekend. You wander around the campus. If you’re hungry, go eat with Gao Wenhui,” Jiang Qin said.

  Feng Nanshu’s face fell, “’t I go?”

  “This is a team-buildi, and you’re not an employee of Room 208, so you ’t go,” Jiang Qin said seriously.

  “But I’m the boss dy,” Feng Nanshu stated solemnly.

  “Really? Do you have an ID? Please show your ID then.”

  “…”
