Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 142 A New Year and a Fresh Start

There is no holiday for high school students on New Year’s Day, Friday.

At noon, Yang Wenwen invited Zhou Jing to her home for dinner, and Yang's mother made up for the dumplings that Zhou Jing didn't eat on the Winter Solstice on New Year's Day.

"It's less than a month until the holiday. Is time passing quickly?"

Yang Wenwen thought back to the past few months and realized that it was already the end of the year and the Gregorian calendar was already 2010.

"It's fast. Every year since I graduated from high school has passed quickly."

The three years of high school are the slowest time in life. Sometimes the days really feel like years.

“How do you feel about being a teacher for more than four months?”

Yang Wenwen smiled and said.

"It's comfortable, but also boring." Zhou Jing paused and smiled, "It doesn't feel so boring when I can see Teacher Yang every day."

"It's better not to be a class teacher."

Yang Wenwen was a little confused for a moment. Did the boy really come back just for her?
"Teacher Yang doesn't like wearing hats and gloves either?"

The wind was biting cold. When they entered the community, Zhou Jing put the hood of Yang Wenwen's down jacket on.

"It felt very cold when I first came here, but I got used to it after living here for a few years."

Yang Wenwen felt warm in her heart when the boy cared for her, but she was a little worried when she thought of what happened last time. A woman like her didn't dare to expect anything. She didn't know how to explain it clearly. If she didn't explain it clearly, she was worried about delaying the boy, but if she did explain it, she was afraid too. In short, she felt very conflicted. Such an embarrassing thing actually happened to her.

"Put on my gloves."

Zhou Jing took out his gloves from his pocket and gave them to her.

"Aren't your hands cold?"

“My hands are warm.”

Zhou Jing stretched out his right hand and let Yang Wenwen touch it.

“It’s really warm.”

Yang Wenwen gently held the boy's hand.

"Wear it."

Zhou Jing handed his gloves to Yang Wenwen.

After New Year’s Day, the countdown to winter vacation begins, which is a new beginning for Zhou Jing.

The first book has been updated and the new book has begun to be serialized. The store he opened with Bai Xiyao is scheduled to open on the 5th. The new year is a brand new beginning for Zhou Jing. On Saturday, Zhou Jing went to the e-commerce mall to check out the situation.

The store is fully equipped, and the counter is neatly arranged with computer-related equipment.

The store has everything from small items like mouse and earphones to large items like host monitors, laptops, speakers, etc. Nowadays, e-commerce is not yet well developed, and offline stores are doing good business, and the shops next door are always crowded with customers.

“This year’s goal is to become the most prosperous one here.”

Bai Xiyao handed Zhou Jing a can of Coke and said confidently.

"Definitely."

Although Bai Xiyao's tone was a bit arrogant, Zhou Jing, who came back from the future, knew that she was not exaggerating. In her previous life, Bai Xiyao was indeed doing very well in her first year.

This line of work is very dependent on technology, and Bai Xiyao's professional level is a dimensionality reduction blow to other people here.

"The hope of reviving the family business rests entirely on me."

Bai Xiyao leaned back in her chair, folded her legs on the table, and looked toward the future.

"Come on, how much can the most popular store here earn in a year?"

Zhou Jing pushed her legs off the table and sat on it himself.

"The store across the street had a net profit of over 400,000 yuan in the first half of the year, and it's not even the best-performing."

Bai Xiyao pointed to the counter opposite.

"That's right, you should strive to break through one million a year."

Zhou Jing nodded. He made 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a month on average, which was still very profitable. "My business scope is wider than theirs. If the annual profit can exceed one million, I will have the opportunity to represent the mall to attend meetings at the Shenzhen headquarters."

In addition to the daily business of the store, Bai Xiyao can also solve computer problems for companies and units.

"Show me your study materials next time."

Zhou Jing decided to have sex with Bai Xiyao, so he must know some skills.

"Please accept me as your teacher and I will teach you."

"I am your major shareholder."

"If you have enough money, transfer another 100,000 to me and I'll buy a car."

After the store opens, it needs to deliver goods to customers, install and repair things, etc. Bai Xiyao can't drive her family's luxury car around every day.

"I'll transfer it to you tomorrow."

A customer came to the store and was ready to buy a desktop computer. After Bai Xiyao introduced the store to the other party, she said that there was a promotion when the store opened, and there would be discounts for purchases over a certain amount. Computers that cost more than four thousand yuan could get a two hundred yuan discount.

The customer doesn't know how to install it and asks if we can come to his home to install it.

"Leave us your address and we can deliver the goods to your door and install it."

Before the official opening, Bai Xiyao didn't want to do business, but since business was coming to her door, she would have missed it.

"I'll take a look."

The customer left his address and went to other stores to compare prices and see if the same machine at Bowei was really being discounted by 200.

"Will he come back?"

After the other party left, Zhou Jing looked at Bai Xiyao and said.

"This model is no longer available here for less than 4500. If he really wants to buy it, he will definitely come back."

In the first picture, Bai Xiyao, a lucky star at the opening ceremony, did not ask customers for a false price. Unless a new store is opening for promotion, no counter will break the "bottom price" of the mall. Even if they don't sell anything, they cannot engage in vicious competition to break the industry rules. Vicious competition in the same mall will harm others and not benefit themselves.

"What's the net profit if it's 4,500?"

Zhou Jing doesn't know much about these.

"There is no net profit from one machine. There are many costs in various aspects. If you only sell one a year, you will still lose money. The purchase price of this monitor is this number, and the purchase price of the host is this number."

Bai Xiyao made two gestures.

Ten minutes later, the customer came to Bowei Computer again and decided to buy the one he had just seen.

When picking up the goods, Bai Xiyao tried to sell the audio equipment to the other party and successfully sold a pair of small subwoofers. After writing the invoice, Zhou Jing took the customer to settle the bill. After moving the goods out of the mall, Zhou Jing drove and went with Bai Xiyao to deliver the goods and install them.

When Bai Xiyao arrived at the customer's home to install the device, Zhou Jing watched and learned carefully.

Although Bai Xiyao is a girl, she works very efficiently. She assembles the computer in minutes and turns it on. The computer has been activated and debugged in the store, so there is no problem installing it and turning it on at the customer's home.

The first order went smoothly. It took more than 40 minutes from delivery to installation.

"As a teacher, can you do such rough work as teaching in class?"

Bai Xiyao didn't know what Zhou Jing was thinking. Most people wouldn't be able to give up their status if they changed their career from a teacher to work with her.

“As long as I can make money.”

Zhou Jing had no problem giving up his teaching job. It mainly depended on how the new book performed. Being a teacher was not as glamorous as imagined. He had to deal with all kinds of students, and would be criticized by leaders if the class did not do well in the exams. Zhou Jing had experienced the boredom of standing on the podium day after day and year after year in his previous life.

Face and dignity are things you can only truly get when you become your own boss.

After leaving the customer's house, Zhou Jing and Bai Xiyao did not return to the store. Zhou Jing had nothing to do today, so Bai Xiyao drove the car to the Internet cafe. The two of them played billiard for a while, had lunch and drank a few bottles of beer in the afternoon, wishing good luck in the opening.

After drinking, Bai Xiyao didn't drive Zhou Jing, so Zhou Jing took a taxi back. Just after returning home, he received a call from Yang Wenwen. It was the girl who spoke. After the girl said a few words, Yang Wenwen took the phone and said that if Zhou Jing was not busy, she would bring CC over to visit.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Jing tidied up the room simply. Twenty minutes later, Yang Wenwen arrived with her daughter. As soon as they met, the little girl threw herself into Zhou Jing's arms.

"My ears are all red from the cold."

Zhou Jing gently touched Yang Wenwen's ear.
