ALL NOVEL Chapter 8
Chapter 8: l One gram, containing tearful blood, earns 299…!
The next day.
Ji Yan got up early in the morning and logged on to QQ, waiting for the addicted fellows from those groups to add him.
However.
He waited for the whole day.
The nearby elementary school had already finished its classes.
“Brother Ji Yan, Brother Ji Yan!”
“Huh?!”
A tender girl’s voice sounded.
Only then did Ji Yan abruptly wake up from his daydream.
“Brother Ji Yan, your drool is dripping!”
Tong Tong looked at Ji Yan with a disgusted face.
“Huh? Really?”
Ji Yan couldn’t recall having a habit of drooling in his sleep.
Upon hearing Tong Tong’s words, he instinctively wiped his face.
It was dry; there was nothing.
“Are you teasing me?”
Ji Yan gave Tong Tong a cold glance.
Seeing that Ji Yan fell for it, Tong Tong covered her mouth and laughed happily.
“Hehe, who asked you to sleep in broad daylight!”
“I’m in class while you’re sleeping; it’s so unfair!”
Tong Tong giggled and dodged Ji Yan’s fan attacks.
Ji Yan felt quite helpless.
Originally, he wanted to run the shop while waiting for news online.
As a result, he accidentally fell asleep in the shop.
Probably because he stayed up late promoting in the group chat yesterday, he was tired.
“Alright, no more running around.”
Ji Yan grabbed Tong Tong’s collar from behind.
“Did you come to buy candy today?”
These days, Ji Yan also researched the surrounding market.
Because his candy shop was located next to the elementary school, there were many kids who liked to eat candy.
The previous owners of this body had even stocked up on some candies to sell specifically to these gluttonous kids.
“Hehe, yes.”
“My mom asked me to buy some rock candy to use for cooking at home. Brother Ji Yan, can you give me a candy as well?”
Tong Tong looked at Ji Yan with hopeful eyes.
She uses the tricks of acting cute and adorable very skillfully.
“Are you trying to trick me out of my candy again?”
Ji Yan narrowed his eyes.
Tong Tong took out ten yuan from her pocket and handed it to Ji Yan.
“My mom gave me this money to buy a kilogram of rock candy.”
“But I want to eat fruit candy. Brother Ji Yan, can you give me one, please?”
Tong Tong blinked her big eyes at him.
From the beginning, Ji Yan was already prepared to give her some candy.
“Alright, alright, I give in to you!”
Saying that, Ji Yan packed a kilogram of rock candy for her and secretly slipped two fruit candies into her hand.
As for the ten yuan, Ji Yan naturally accepted it.
Even among close siblings, you still keep accounts!
After sending off Tong Tong, many other elementary school students came to buy candy.
“Brother Ji Yan, can you give me one for free?”
“Boss, how much does this candy cost?”
“Brother Ji Yan, take the money!”
“Brother Ji Yan…”
A group of elementary school students rushed out of the school gate and surrounded Ji Yan.
At this moment, Ji Yan put on the demeanor of a small stall owner.
No matter who asked for a free candy, Ji Yan refused them all.
“No, if I give you all free candies, my business won’t work!”
Ji Yan threatened the group of children with a stern face.
Then, he nodded towards a female teacher standing in front of his shop.
“Teacher Zhao, school is over, huh?”
The female teacher blushed and smiled.
“Yes, I’m here to take care of our students and make sure they get handed over to their parents later.”
Ji Yan nodded without saying anything and turned back to continue his candy business.
This scene naturally caught the attention of Wang Sheng, who was monitoring nearby.
However, Wang Sheng only glanced at it briefly and quickly looked away.
At this point, he had completely regarded monitoring Ji Yan as a waste of time.
He had been here for two days and hadn’t seen any problems with Ji Yan at all.
He treated customers politely in the shop, and these days, he didn’t even send any suspicious packages.
There was absolutely nothing wrong.
He was simply a law-abiding and well-behaved citizen, as far as Wang Sheng could see.
This Ji Yan doesn’t need to be monitored anymore.
“Report, report, Ji Yan is all normal.”
“Received, continue monitoring for two more days.”
Wang Sheng flipped a page of the newspaper and yawned.
In the evening, Ji Yan logged into QQ to check if there were any messages.
However, he was disappointed as no one came to add him to buy rock candy.
“Forget it, I’ll check again tomorrow…”
Ji Yan sighed.
The next day was the same. He didn’t make a single online sale.
For the past two days, the business at the candy store was supported by the neighboring elementary school students and local neighbors.
“What’s going on? Why is nobody buying?”
Even though Ji Yan remained optimistic, after waiting for two days without any messages, he started to feel anxious.
“Should I send out some advertisements in groups again?”
With this thought in mind, Ji Yan planned to search for more QQ groups of potential customers.
But just as he was searching, suddenly his computer went crazy with notifications. Ji Yan’s QQ icon was continuously bouncing as many people added him as a friend.
All the verification messages were about “buying rock candy” or “how to buy rock candy.”
“What the heck? Why are so many people suddenly coming?”
“Did the advertisement finally work?”
These friend requests puzzled Ji Yan. He couldn’t understand why so many people were suddenly looking for him to buy rock candy.
Could it be because of the advertisement he posted in the group chat a couple of days ago?
Apart from the advertisement, Ji Yan couldn’t think of any other explanation.
But still, the effect of the advertisement took too long, right?!
It’s been a whole two days!
They just remembered to add him on QQ now?
“You people can’t keep up with the times!”
Ji Yan silently cursed.
Then he decided to accept the friend requests and was excited about all the addicted buyers who were coming to buy his rock candy.
With so many addicted buyers coming to him, he must be making a lot of money!
One gram of rock candy for three hundred yuan.
After deducting the cost and postage, Ji Yan was earning a whopping 299 yuan!
“You came to me yourselves, don’t blame me…”
Ji Yan opened the verification message panel.
Just then, the previous buyer who came to him to buy rock candy sent him a message.
“Are there many people coming to buy rock candy from you?”
Ji Yan opened the message and saw that it was from the buyer with the Dian Nan address, the person to whom he sent a package about two to three days ago.
Considering the time, the package should have arrived by now.
Instantly, Ji Yan became alert and also understood why so many people suddenly came to him to buy rock candy.
“Damn, could this guy have found out that the product is fake and sent people to attack me online?”
“So many people are scolding me, how long do I have to block them?”
“But his tone doesn’t seem like that…”
Ji Yan was thoroughly confused by this buyer.
The only reasonable explanation was that this person discovered that Ji Yan was selling genuine rock candy here.
So, he gathered a group of people to attack Ji Yan online.
But isn’t this method a bit childish?
Ji Yan was full of doubts.
In the end, he sent a question mark to that buyer.
