Chapter 59: Society, Brother Yun

New Year's Day in 93 arrived as expected in heavy snow.

The day before Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School went on holiday, the door of Sister Li's convenience store located at the school gate was still open. Her store was open for one day as long as the students had classes. However, today near evening, students were going home one after another to celebrate New Year's Day, and there was not much business in the store, so Sister Li took in the small stall outside and prepared to close the store and go home.

At this time, a young man in a leather coat came to the door of the store. He stamped on the snow stains on the soles of his leather shoes and asked casually: "Boss, do you have any handheld devices for sale?"

Sister Li glanced at the young man in the leather coat, who was tall and thin, and should be around thirty-four or thirty-five. She immediately remembered what Zhang Yunqi had told her, that except for students, anyone else who came to inquire about the handheld game console would be told that it was out of stock.

In fact, she really had no stock recently, so Zhang Yunqi stopped selling her goods and promised to give her some compensation. As for why he did this, Sister Li also knew something. She said to the young man in leather jacket, "No, we are out of stock recently."

The young man in leather jacket took out a handheld device and placed it on the counter, then asked with a smile, "So you know this handheld device, right?"

Sister Li glanced at the handheld device on the counter. It was the handheld device she was selling. She rolled her shrewd eyes and said, "This is what I sell here."

The young man in the leather jacket smiled and asked, "How's business?"

Sister Li said with a smile: "Need I say that? They are all sold out, how can the business be bad?"

The young man in leather jacket asked again: "Where did you get the goods from?"

"Hey, why are you asking this?"

"Oh, excuse me. I'm a wholesaler. I recently discovered that this handheld game console seems to be very popular among students. I want to know the market price. Don't worry, my business does not conflict with yours."

"Okay then. I'll give you the contact information of the general agent of the Palm King handheld machine. His name is Zhang Yunqi, Boss Zhang, and he's 17 years old."

The young man in leather jacket was stunned: "17 years old?"

Sister Li said with a smile: "Why, do you think he is young? What is this called, age is not the limit for ambition! Boss Zhang is very capable, I won't go into details, you will understand when you meet him."

The more Sister Li said this, the more curious the young man in the leather jacket became about Zhang Yunqi. At 17 years old, he must still be a student, right? He could actually build such a big business.

He had a calm smile on his face. He took the note with the contact information from Sister Li, said thank you, turned and left the store, took out his mobile phone on the side of the road, and called the number given by Sister Li.

The number belonged to the boys' dormitory. Old Liu, who was standing at the door of the dormitory, answered the phone. He was sitting by the fire in the lobby. He answered the phone and asked lazily, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

The young man in leather jacket said, "I'm looking for Boss Zhang Yunqi."

"Go find our boss. He is very busy now. I am his personal assistant. Just tell me if you have anything to say." Old man Liu suddenly became arrogant. Zhang Yunqi had instructed that the dealers below should not be polite and should act as pretentiously as they can.

The young man in leather jacket said, "My name is Yu Lin. I'm a wholesaler in Xinglong Electronic Digital City. I specialize in being a wholesale agent for all kinds of electronic products. My channels are all over Jiangchuan City and the counties and towns below. I'm quite interested in your King of Palm handheld computer. I want to talk to your boss about cooperation."

Old Liu thought that this was a big customer, so he should not be polite. As a qualified customer service staff, what was the most important thing?

The most important thing is to build a good reputation for your boss! He said lazily: "That's the matter, but recently there are many large wholesalers looking for cooperation with our boss, but he is too busy. Small wholesalers don't accept it. Do you have a strong channel?"

Yu Lin said: "The first time, we bought at least 5,000 units."

Old Liu swallowed his saliva. This was a large quantity. So far, the boss had not sold this much. But the commander was beating the drum and he had to carry on with his pretentious business. He stretched out his tone and said, "This quantity is not bad, but whether to accept it depends on our boss. He is very busy today and is discussing business with several big customers at the Hyatt Hotel. How about this, I will report to the boss tonight, and you call me tomorrow morning and I will tell you the result then."

Yu Lin said it.

After hanging up the phone, he took out a soft Zhonghua cigarette, lit it and put it in his mouth, then stood at the gate of No. 1 Middle School for a while. The Zhang Yunqi, whom he had never met, kept lingering in his mind.

But soon, his attention was attracted by a large restaurant opposite the school gate. Dozens of students were drinking inside. It was snowing heavily, and the atmosphere was very lively. He smiled, still as carefree as his student days.

Throwing away the cigarette butt, Yu Lin turned and left No. 1 Middle School.

Zhang Yunqi is indeed very busy today.

He set up eight tables in a large restaurant opposite the school and invited 66 classmates to dine. All of these classmates were there to help him buy the King of Tetris handheld game console from Xinglong Electronic Digital City.

These days, being a shill is a new thing, and most people can't see the tricks. Under the command of Zhang Yunqi, this group of rookies who have just debuted performed well. They responded according to the words he taught them in advance and basically did not make any mistakes. However, they were just going to buy things, and it was not a job that required any technical skills. As long as there was nothing wrong with their brains, they would be able to do it right.

Zhang Yunqi gave each of them ten yuan for their work. Today's dinner was a reward for everyone. They did a great job, so this little money was well spent.

Each table was filled with delicious dishes. People could drink as much wine as they wanted and order as many dishes as they wanted. Everyone was enjoying the meal. They were all young people around 16 or 17 years old. After a few drinks, the atmosphere became quite lively.

Wang Xiaokai was the middleman. He was the one who found this group of students and he was very familiar with them. He was the most active during the drinking process and kept asking everyone to toast Zhang Yunqi.

Zhang Yunqi was not well-known in the school and was just an ordinary person. Except for the boys in the class, no other students knew him. However, the lavishness of this banquet allowed everyone to see this hidden figure.

Such a meal would cost about a thousand yuan, which is enough to pay a student's tuition for several years. Looking at Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School, who can afford such a generous sum?

While drinking, everyone looked at Zhang Yunqi, who was sitting at the top seat with a smile on his face. Many people had a hint of awe in their eyes. This awe was not the kind of awe one has for parents, teachers, and police officers, but the awe one has on a high school campus, where one has to respect and recognize whoever is the most awesome.

There were quite a few people who toasted Zhang Yunqi, and they were all very proud and said, "Brother Yun, if you have any questions at school, just let me know at any time!"

"Brother Yun, I'll do whatever you want to me!"

"Brother Yun, I didn't know you before, but after what happened, I recognize you as my buddy. Come, let's have a good meal!"

Zhang Yunqi was confused and did not know whether to laugh or cry. He felt like he was about to debut in society with a group of little fools, but damn, I don't want to be your Brother Yun!
