Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 236 - 106: Senior, Why Are You Working a Part-Time Job? Are You That Short on Money? (3)

"New Century Digital Flagship Experience Center..."

Brother Xiao Yang repeated the name twice, feeling that it sounded truly grand and appealing. If he were to name it, he wouldn't have come up with something like that, and of course, for his little shop, he wouldn't dare use such a high-sounding name.

Of course, it's not just about the name sounding grand; the store itself has to match in all aspects, otherwise, it would be seen as a joke.

Moreover, he hadn't heard of any of the names of the computer and digital stores on the banner.

Having been in this industry for so long, Yang Fen had heard of any store with a bit of reputation in Lin'an.

After a bit of thought, Brother Xiao Yang understood the trick behind it.

A college student, even if they are a rich second-generation, wouldn't have the clout to have dozens or hundreds of peers congratulating them at their grand opening.

The banner and flower baskets were likely arranged by proxies!

This college student really knows how to play the game!

"Hey, Brother Xiao Yang, you're here too!"

Among the onlookers, an old customer who had visited Fenfei Technology multiple times to buy machines for his roommates recognized Brother Yang, the shopkeeper of the computer city, and took the initiative to greet him.

"Haha, yes, I was invited by a big boss I know to attend the opening of their store!"

Brother Xiao Yang, with his high emotional intelligence, gave ample face to Su Zelin.

People who heard this became even more convinced of this digital store's impressive background.

Arriving at the store's entrance, Brother Xiao Yang saw Su Zelin, but today he was wearing an ordinary employee uniform, only wearing a manager's armband on his hand.

Standing in the middle of the doorway was a young man dressed in a suit, with glowing leather shoes, and his hair immaculately combed.

Yesterday, in a call with Su Zelin, Brother Xiao Yang had already learned that the store's manager was someone else, a man named Kang Baohong, while Zelin was just the shop manager.

Clearly, this behind-the-scenes young boss appointed a manager, merely participating nominally in the store's business operations.

So Brother Xiao Yang first approached Kang Baohong, "Hello, Manager Kang. I'm Yang Fen from Fenfei Technology. I heard that New Century opens today. I'm here specially to wish your store prosperous business and booming success!"

Kang Baohong quickly shook his hand, "Thank you, Boss Yang, for gracing us with your presence. Please give our humble store a lot of guidance!"

Having jumped from being a worker to becoming the manager of a large digital store, Kang Baohong adapted to his new role quite quickly, and his manner of speaking as a manager was quite proper.

"No need, no need!"

Brother Xiao Yang presented the flower baskets and banner, and Kang Baohong called an employee to hang them up.

After exchanging some casual pleasantries, Brother Xiao Yang didn't linger, knowing that as the manager, Kang Baohong would be very busy today; recognizing the face was enough. Besides, Yang Fen mainly came for Su Zelin.

Having done the courtesy, he found an excuse to move away and came to Su Zelin's side.

With no one else around, Brother Xiao Yang lowered his voice, "Little brother, your move is quite impressive, you scared me!"

"Haha, it's nothing much, just the first store, with limited scale. When setting up the second one, it should be different!"

In front of Yang Fen, Su Zelin spoke frankly. Brother Xiao Yang surely knew that this store wasn't a chain, at least not at this moment.

"You plan to set up a second one?"

Brother Xiao Yang was slightly taken aback.

"Why not?"

Su Zelin asked back, "If this store can be successful, proving the model is viable, there will naturally be a second, third... even more!"

Brother Xiao Yang finally understood why Su Zelin mentioned the possibility of working together before.

He had long intended to open chain stores.

This college student's ambition was bigger than he imagined!

However, his actions were truly bold.

In just a few months, while studying, he managed to set up this digital store, which wasn't small in scale.

As far as Yang Fen knew, the old computer store used to have only one storefront, with a few warehouses nearby. Who knows what methods this college student used to persuade the college to empty and rent out the warehouses.

It seems he has connections at the Finance College, at least at the vice dean level!

Brother Xiao Yang, being smart, instantly deduced a lot of things.

"So, Brother Xiao Yang, if you have spare time, come by the store for tea. If you're interested, we can discuss collaboration."

Su Zelin extended an olive branch.

He knew that Brother Xiao Yang's view of him had completely changed.

"Haha, little brother, no rush. Your store just opened, you'll definitely be busy for a while. When you have some free time, I'll come by again for a visit!"

Brother Xiao Yang's words had another purpose.

He was observing.

Despite how promising the digital store looked, and how it had already attracted the attention of many college students before its grand opening, it still needed to actually sell computers and maintain long-term interest and stable revenue. Rather than being a flash in the pan, only then can it be deemed successful, proving the model has great financial potential.

However, Brother Xiao Yang spoke with finesse. Even if he was observing, he chose his words carefully to avoid causing any displeasure, which is the key to social interaction.

"Sure, no problem, let's discuss it later!"

Su Zelin also understood his implication.

Brother Xiao Yang was being cautious, and considering the investment in such a store would be significant, Yang Fen couldn't decide just by glancing at the grand opening.

But he was confident.

Brother Xiao Yang would soon be willing to join and become his partner.

Su Zelin also needed such a capable partner because he couldn't and didn't plan to manage everything himself.

This lifetime is mainly about enjoying life; earning a bit less doesn't matter.

Of course, even with less involvement, he might not earn less than in his previous life. As a reborn person, his advantages were enormous.

"I must excuse myself for a moment!"

Brother Xiao Yang moved aside and called his shop, telling his assistant he might return later.

Initially, he had planned to just do a round and leave after offering his congratulations, but he changed his mind. Brother Xiao Yang decided to stay and personally observe the store's sales performance on its opening day.
