“I’m sorry, Nuonuo, the truth is, I approached you with ulterior motives at

first.

My goal was to take Jiang Xu back from you.

I even considered doing things to hurt you at the beginning.”

An Nuonuo was taken aback.

She didn’t expect Zhou Qingyue to reveal her secret like this.

Then she smiled gently, “It’s okay, I…I actually knew it from the beginning.”

Now, it was Zhou Qingyue’s turn to be stunned.

Then she laughed bitterly.

She realized that she had made a fool of herself.

“Then…” An Nuonuo hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Why did you block the basketball for me this time?”

Their relationship was actually quite complex.

There was competition, yet there seemed to be a touch of friendship too.

“Because,” Zhou Qingyue said with a wry smile, “I have found myself falling for you.”

“What?”

Upon hearing this, An Nuonuo instinctively stepped back, her face pale with shock.

The last time she had been so startled was the last time.

Zhou Qingyue saw her reaction and knew there was a misunderstanding.

In an irritated tone, she clarified, “I mean ‘like’ as in a pure friendship kind of

liking.”

“Ohh…”

An Nuonuo nodded awkwardly, her face flushed.

It was all Jiang Xu’s fault.

Having spent so much time with him, she had started to pick up his bad habits.

The saying, ‘those who are near vermilion get stained red, and those who are near ink get stained black¹ was true…

“However,” Zhou Qingyue continued, her tone changing, “I’m not giving up on

Jiang Xu.

I will compete for him with you in a fair and open manner in the future.

Can we still be good friends?”

“Okay.” An Nuonuo nodded slightly.

She felt Zhou Qingyue had changed greatly from before.

The current Zhou Qingyue was more likable.

Moreover, An Nuonuo was not worried at all that Jiang Xu would be stolen

away.

Zhou Qingyue also started laughing and stuck out her little finger, Let s pinky promise; this matter will only be known to us.”

“Okay.”

Their delicate pinkies interlocked.

One week passed by quickly.

All the spring sports meetings at Jiang City’s schools had ended.

Then…

Jiang Xu took few more days off.

There was something else he needed to do.

He arrived at the high school he attended.

There were several small shops around.

Jiang Xu entered one of them and asked the owner, “Boss, do you have the

‘Local Spring’ water here?”

“What?” The owner was stunned and then shook his head, “Never heard of it.”

Jiang Xu muttered, “Really? Such a famous brand of mineral water and you don’t carry it?

Nevermind, I’ll go check somewhere else.

Then, he went to two more shops and asked the same question.

After he left those shops, he went to a corner.

There were about fifty first-year high school students whom Jiang Xu had

called here.

As for how he had gathered them, it was simple.

He gave each person twenty yuan.

Jiang Xu looked at them and said, “Let’s repeat it once again, you will go into those shops in groups.

Twenty people in the morning, thirty in the afternoon.

Ask the owner if they sell ‘Local Spring’ water.

When the owner says they don’t, show disappointment with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Those who complete the task will get thirty yuan each, got it?”

“No problem!”

All students shouted together, seeming very excited.

Earning thirty yuan just for speaking a few words, where else could they find such an easy job?

Jiang Xu nodded and gave each of them ten yuan.

“Okay, consider this your deposit. After completing the task, I will give you the rest of the money tomorrow.

I’ll have someone watching secretly. Anyone who doesn’t do it won’t get the money.”

The students quickly reassured him that they definitely would not.

Then, they went to the three shops to carry out their tasks in pairs or alone.

“Boss, do you sell ‘Local Spring’ water here?”

“You don’t? That’s so lame, how come you do not carry such a famous brand of water.”

“Forget it, I’ll go buy it somewhere else.”

The owners of the three convenience stores were bombarded with waves of customers asking about this brand of water from morning until afternoon.

They were stunned.

When did this brand suddenly appear?

They couldn’t sit still anymore.

With so many students coming in and asking for it, there must be a market for

it.

They needed to stock up on this product quickly.

So, the shop owners quickly investigated.

In the end, they managed to get a bottle of ‘Local Spring’ water.

The manufacturer’s contact information was on the bottom of the bottle.

They made a call and ordered a batch of water.

Getting students to indirectly do businesses was much more effective than

Jiang Xu directly persuading the shop owners to buy his product.

Utilizing this method, Jiang Xu managed to reach all primary, middle, and high schools in Jiang City within a few days.

Of course, since many students don’t actually like drinking mineral water and prefer different beverages,

Jiang Xu launched a new game.

He set twelve colors for the water bottle.

There was a protective film on the outside.

You could only tell what color it was after tearing off the film.

Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, white, silver, gold, and dark gold.

He set gold and silver as rare colors.

If you collected bottles of five different colors, you could exchange them for a snack pack.

If you collected bottles of seven different colors, you could exchange them for some small toys.

If you collected bottles of all twelve colors, you could exchange them for a doll or a mech toy.

One bottle of water was sold for three yuan.

Jiang Xu did detailed calculations.

Adding on the cost of these prizes, he could still make a profit of fifty cents per bottle.

The profit in this line of business was truly enormous.

Besides the lure of prizes, there was also the effect of peer pressure.

If someone among a group of friends bought a ‘rare color’ bottle, they would definitely want to show it off.

Seeing this, the other friends would definitely feel jealous and envious, and would want to buy one too.

Jiang Xu had been conned by similar games in his childhood, spending quite a bit of money on them.

He transformed the attribute of mineral water from just something to drink to something else.

This, in turn, would tremendously help to boost the brand’s recognition and sales.

After implementing this operation, he successfully made the ‘Local Spring’ water brand gradually popular among the various schools in Jiang City. The factory’s orders exploded.

Lin Xiaoxian called with excitement in her voice, “Boss, how did you do it? The orders exploded, with a total of one hundred thousand, the orders are lined up till half a month from now.”

One order was twelve bottles.

Although it seemed like a lot, divided among several thousand shops, it wasn’t that much.

Some rich students even bought several boxes at once. The other brands of mineral water were lost for words. This sudden change caught them off guard.

Jiang Xu didn’t explain, he just reminded her to maintain the quality and fulfill the orders as soon as possible.

He hung up the call and massaged his face. Sigh, there was still not enough capital.

If there was enough capital, he could also simultaneously distribute and advertise in other cities.

Right now, only Jiang City had achieved a certain degree of success. The other competitors would definitely quickly copy his method and then spread their influence to other cities.

Jiang Xu had been expecting this, yet he was powerless to stop it. Just after he ended the call with Lin Xiaoxian, Lin Nan called him.

“It’s bad, boss, something big happened!”
