Reborn: Billionaire in College

Chapter 106 Christmas Eve

When Chen Pingjiang found Ning Yongde's office with the invitation, Ning Yongde was looking through the posts on Renren.com with his reading glasses. He didn't expect that this person was also a heavy spammer.

Seeing Chen Pingjiang, Ning Yongde took off his reading glasses with a smile and kindly poured a glass of water for Chen Pingjiang.

"Congratulations to Principal Ning on your promotion."

It is a bit mysterious to say, but after returning from Chen Pingjiang's inspection of Renren.com, Ning Yongde was promoted to the position of president and deputy secretary of the Party Committee, in charge of the overall work of the University of Finance and Economics.

"What is there to congratulate? No matter which position you are in, you are serving the teachers and students of CSSF." Ning Yongde spoke in an official tone. It would be a lie to say that she was unhappy in her heart. After being a daughter-in-law for many years, she finally became a mother-in-law.

Looking at the invitation handed over by Chen Pingjiang, he smiled and said jokingly: "Is it appropriate for us to go to your company's annual meeting?"

"You are being too polite. Many people in our company are students of the University of Finance and Economics. Renren.com has grown and prospered under your care. The whole company is looking forward to your guidance."

Ning Yongde smiled and pointed at Chen Pingjiang: "I don't know where you learned this skill of talking. Now that you've said that, I feel embarrassed not to go."

Chen Pingjiang smiled and said, "Principal, if you don't go, other school leaders will definitely not go. Then the outside world will think that Renren.com doesn't have the support of the school. In addition, there are many partners and some Renren.com users who will be the guests this time. We especially need you to support us."

"I have accepted the invitation and will definitely go when the time comes."

At this time, Chen Pingjiang said again: "President, would you please give a speech at the annual meeting?"

"Sure, no problem." As usual, since the big boss was present, he would speak. Ning Yongde had expected this. "I see you've been quite active recently. I often see delivery riders on campus. There's a lot of talk about Renren Takeout on Renren.com. They say you subsidized a lot of money in the early stage?"

Chen Pingjiang nodded: "In order to let more people know about Renren Waimai, subsidies in the early stage are essential."

"A deputy editor-in-chief of Dongjiang Daily came to me and said that his interview with you was rejected."

"Maybe after the New Year. By then I might need my first round of financing and use the media to promote it."

After coming out of Ning Yongde's office, Chen Pingjiang went to visit all the leaders of the colleges and universities with a bunch of invitations. He wanted to invite all the top leaders, as it would be embarrassing if anyone was missing.

At the last stop, Chen Pingjiang decided to go to Yuanfang Supermarket to ask He Zhiyu for money.

After explaining his purpose, Chen Pingjiang sat down on the sofa and said, "I have good news for you, Lao He. Many partners wanted to sponsor the gifts for our annual meeting, but I rejected them all with righteous words. I only leave this opportunity to you."

He Zhiyu, who was pouring water, almost lost his grip on the kettle and said with a fake smile, "Then I really have to thank you."

Chen Pingjiang waved his hand generously: "What's the big deal? After all, I am also a consultant for our Yuanfang Supermarket."

"Actually, I also have good news to tell you." After thinking about it, He Zhiyu said.

"?"

"I am personally very optimistic about the development prospects of Renren Waimai, and I hope that we can get along for a long time, so I plan to invest in Renren Waimai's business."

Chen Pingjiang seemed to be frightened and shrank back. "Not really, Lao He. I just took some slow-selling things as prizes. They don't cost much. How dare you target my Renren Waimai?"

He Zhiyu smiled and said, "You are so short of money that you have to advance your full-year salary. With my investment, won't Renren Waimai's cash flow be more abundant? If I'm not mistaken, you will enter Jiangning University Town and other universities after the new year, and you will be even more short of money by then."

He Zhiyu's idea of ​​investing in Renren Waimai was not a sudden one.

On the one hand, he was indeed optimistic about Chen Pingjiang and his project; on the other hand, he also wanted to be completely tied to Chen Pingjiang. The last consideration was that he could help Yuanfang Supermarket gain a foothold in online sales.

Chen Pingjiang frowned: "Are you serious?"

"of course."

"Well, I won't hide it from you. Right now, neither Renren nor Renren Waimai have any plans to raise funds, because I can't possibly reach an agreement on the price with any investor. In my mind, the valuations of Renren and Renren Waimai can reach 100 million, but to outsiders, both of them only have 100,000 registered users, so a valuation of a few million at most is outrageous. So, there's no way to talk about this."

It was true that He Zhiyu wanted to buy shares, but he did not expect Chen Pingjiang to value both of them at over 100 million yuan. He could not help but ask curiously, "Are you simply confident, or do you believe that you can succeed?"

Chen Pingjiang blinked: "Is there any difference between the two?"

"Of course there is a difference. Blind self-confidence and asking for 100 million based on the company's potential and its own strength are two different concepts."

"Why ask? Don't worry, there will be a financing plan in the first half of next year. If you are still interested, we can talk about it then."

He Zhiyu nodded in agreement, not pursuing the topic any further. "Go to the store and get the gift yourself. I'll tell the people down there."

"Then I'm not welcome."

Chen Pingjiang ran directly to the store downstairs and started looking around. He also called a few employees to come over, mainly because he was afraid that they would take too much and it would be difficult to take it away.

"I won't take the cheap ones. If they are too expensive, I'm afraid Lao He will kill me. But small appliances are good enough."

Chen Pingjiang really didn't feel sorry for picking it up.

They took away everything, including hair dryers, juicers, razors, and even a few rice cookers.

These small appliances are definitely not high-end enough for a grand prize, but they are definitely fine as small gifts.

When Li Xi and others arrived at Yuanfang Supermarket, they were stunned. The two shopping carts next to their boss were stuffed to the brim, and they were still adding to the shelves continuously, almost clearing out the shelves, forcing the supermarket manager to quickly restock.

Although it's not much money, it's a lot.

After cleaning the small appliances, Chen Pingjiang turned his attention to the surrounding alcohol, beverages and snacks.

"Twenty bags of this and fifteen bags of that." Chen Pingjiang gave the orders, and Li Xi and others were responsible for moving.

"Boss, aren't these things much more expensive if you buy them in the supermarket? If we want to prepare gifts for the annual meeting, I think it would be cheaper to buy them at an electronics store, or online?" Li Xi secretly clicked his tongue as he watched two more shopping carts being loaded in a short while.

Chen Pingjiang tilted his head and looked at him with a strange expression: "These don't cost any money."

"What?"

"..."

"Boss, you are awesome."

Chen Pingjiang looked at the results of the battle in front of him and clapped his hands in satisfaction. It was almost done.

"Push them out. I don't think they can fit in my car. Each of you can take a car and put them in. Separate the rice cookers, electric kettles, coffee machines and the like. These are for the office."

The store manager, who had been greeted by He Zhiyu, felt devastated when he saw Chen Pingjiang and others pushing four full shopping carts towards him.

You are really pulling the wool out of me.

Not polite at all.

Because the shopping cart was too full, plastic bags kept falling to the ground from the snack cart.

Chen Pingjiang smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, it felt so good to shop, I accidentally took too much and didn't hold on well."

The store manager is also a shrewd person. He put on a professional smile and said, "Not much, not much at all. Mr. He has already told me about it. You can take as much as you want."

"Really? Then help me get a truck so I don't have to take a taxi."

"..."

He Zhiyu was dumbfounded when he received the call. You really dare to take it if I ask you to. Four shopping carts are filled with it.

The person concerned had happily driven his car behind the truck into the Entrepreneurship Park.

All the male workers in the company had to make several trips back and forth to move everything away completely.

The girls screamed as they looked at the various goods piled up like a mountain in front of them.

"The boss is so thoughtful. He has the White Rabbit candies that I like." "Oh my god, why are there hot packs?"

"Boss, how much did you buy?"

Chen Pingjiang put his hands on his hips and said with a domineering smile: "Aren't you complaining about the cold every day? I specially moved a few heaters for you. After all, our electricity is free, so we can keep the office warm every day."

"Here, take the rice cooker. I can cook something for you."

“A humidifier prevents dryness.”

"Huh? Damn, who the hell brought me so many seventh-dimensional spaces? Is he mentally retarded?"

"..."

Chen Pingjiang arranged everything like a nouveau riche, really being too generous to others. He Zhiyu would be so angry if he knew about this.

Wan Yuqian was stunned: "I'm curious, how did you convince the owner of Yuanfang Supermarket to let you move so many things?"

"Does this require convincing? Your boss can easily get you the job."

Walking into the office, Chen Pingjiang looked at the apples on the table in confusion and asked, "Who put the apples there? I hate eating apples the most. Next time, get some cherries or something."

A girl outside the house covered her mouth and laughed: "Boss, that's the Christmas apple. Have you forgotten that today is Christmas Eve?"

"He definitely doesn't remember it. How can a single guy remember such a day?" Miao Bingwei laughed strangely.

Chen Pingjiang didn't like what he heard. "What's wrong with being a single dog? Do single dogs eat your rice? Besides, the eldest brother doesn't call the second brother, and the monk doesn't call the bald man. Aren't you a single dog too, Miao Gong?"

Miao Bingwei touched his hair, which was moving up along his hairline, and said, "Excuse me, I have to pick up my girlfriend after get off work to watch a movie, Zhang Yimou's Curse of the Golden Flower."

"Huh? You already have a girlfriend? How could my sister-in-law be blind to like you?"

"Go away, how can you talk like that?" Miao Bingwei rolled his eyes.

Chen Pingjiang pointed at Miao Bingwei's head and said, "Stop pulling it. If you keep pulling it, you will be extremely smart."

This sentence deeply touched Miao Bingwei's soft heart. Programmers are all afraid of this.

Somehow the topic was brought back to "Curse of the Golden Flower".

"The cast is so luxurious, including Chow Yun-fat, Gong Li, and most importantly, my idol Jay Chou."

"I haven't watched it yet. Let's do it together tonight?"

"..."

This topic successfully brought back memories for Chen Pingjiang, who sneered privately, "However, people still watch a movie about a family with no normal person in it."

After wandering around for a while, Chen Pingjiang, seeing that there was nothing to do, strolled back to the dormitory.

"My naughty brothers, I'm back." Chen Pingjiang put his hands in his pockets and kicked open the dormitory door.

Only Xiao He was lying on the table reading a book. He asked curiously, "Where are all the people?"

He Siyu turned around and said, "Someone is watching a movie, someone is eating, and Wang Lei is probably surfing the Internet."

Chen Pingjiang nodded: "Today is Christmas Eve, why don't you go out and play?"

"They said they were worried that you would be bored when you come back, so they asked me to stay in the dormitory to keep you company."

In an instant, Chen Pingjiang felt the indifference of people's hearts.

"You bastard, who are you looking down on? This must have been said by Dong Tinghui. Only this idiot can say something at -37 degrees Celsius with a mouth that's 50 degrees Celsius."

"How could I be alone? Are you kidding me? I waved my hand and the girls who accompanied me lined up from the dormitory downstairs to the gate."

"I have no time for love because I am busy with my career."

Chen Pingjiang didn't know whether he was talking to himself or He Siyu. He kept talking for a long time and became angrier and angrier.

Half a day later, He Siyu saw him muttering, "Is the one in line a foot-washing girl or a princess?"

Chen Pingjiang was startled and stared at He Siyu blankly: "There's something wrong with you. Living with them, are you saying such lewd things because of what you see and hear?"

At this time, Chen Ping heard the sound of a text message on his mobile phone.

Cong Nini: Class monitor, are you free tonight? Let's go to the movies together.

Chen Pingjiang: Why did Neptune come to me instead of fishing in the fish pond?

Cong Nini: I am no longer the King of the Sea. I have released all the fish.

Chen Pingjiang: I’m not free at night.

Cong Nini: You are lying to me, right? I will wear nice clothes for you tonight, okay? There are bunny girls and nurse uniforms.

Chen Pingjiang clicked his tongue, thinking that Cong Nini had really become a different person after being slapped last time. She was so coquettish that Chen Pingjiang suddenly became a little distracted.

After turning off his phone, Chen Pingjiang did not reply to the message. He was a little afraid of this crazy woman now. After she transformed, she liked to take out his balls. Last time, she almost scared Chen Pingjiang to death in the car. Who could stand this?

Not long after that, Zhou Guanghan also sent a message: "Uncle, I want to ask if you want to buy a bouquet of flowers when you go to the movies with a girl?"

In an instant, Chen Pingjiang felt the full malice from this world.

what's the situation?
You guys can just have fun, why do you always diss me?
After thinking about it, Chen Pingjiang sent a text message to Yan Yan.

Chen Pingjiang: Come downstairs in twenty minutes, I'll pick you up.

Soon, the message came back.

"Oh!"

Chen Pingjiang nodded in satisfaction. How could I not have a woman to accompany me? You must be kidding.

When driving past the gate of Dongcai University, Chen Pingjiang thought of something and turned around and drove towards Entrepreneurship Park 202.

He ran straight to the office, picked up the peace apple on the desk and went out again.

When the car arrived at the downstairs of Yan Yan's dormitory, she was already waiting there.

It's true, this is the only thing that really makes Yan Yan different from other women. If it's other girls, you ask for 20 minutes, but she can take an hour.

Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that other girls need to spend a lot of time beautifying their faces, but Yan Yan doesn't need to do that at all.

When Yan Yan sat in the passenger seat and Chen Pingjiang was about to shift into D gear and start the car, the rear door was suddenly opened and a small figure rushed in at lightning speed, startling the two people in the front seat.

Chen Pingjiang took a closer look and realized that this was the best friend that Yan Yan introduced to him when she was reselling old military training uniforms at the Sports Institute last time.
Turning his head to look at Yan Yan, Chen Pingjiang put on an expression that said "what's going on?"

Yan Yan smiled bitterly: "Cao Jie, why are you so startled?"

Cao Jie in the back row shook her head proudly: "We agreed to go shopping together, but you were kidnapped by Chen Pingjiang with just one text message. You have the opposite sex but no humanity. I will definitely be the light bulb today."

Yan Yan looked at Chen Pingjiang with some embarrassment, not knowing what to do for a moment.

What else could Chen Pingjiang do? He couldn't chase them away, so he could only smile politely and say, "Then let's go together."
