Yu Xiaoke Making a Fortune
“You are spot on!” Kang Zhaoming nodded in agreement. “From what you have said, I feel that I have seen that flower bed strategy used by male main characters to profess their love!”
One big misstep that Kang Zhaoming and Wang Shubin didn’t realize was that in these soap operas, the male and female relationship was completely different from Kang Zhaoming and Guan Xin’s relationship! The male characters in soap operas had displayed a good impression to the female characters and the only barriers between the two potential couples were either misunderstandings or hesitation. It was a very specific case where the male was pursuing and the female was accepting, which is why the sea of flowers strategy would have such wonderful, and positive effect.
The biggest problem was that Guan Xin has no interest in Kang Zhaoming. There were absolutely no positive feelings toward him at all. Why would she like Kang Zhaoming with this strategy? However, if it was Lin Yi was the one doing the professing, then maybe, Guan Xin would accept…
“So we should go to the local flower shop?” Wang Shubin noticed that Kang Zhaoming agreed, so he continued with the thought.“Go somewhere else to buy? Why bother? Can’t we buy flowers from here? Things like these need to be completed the sooner the better!” Kang Zhaoming was reluctant to wait any longer.
“Okay, then we will buy it here…” Wang Shubin nodded. He pushed Kang Zhaoming further out away from the hospital building. It was there that they saw Yu Xiaoke and a group of orphans selling flowers!
“Ha! See! Aren’t they selling flowers?” Kang Zhaoming saw Yu Xiaoke and his eyes lit up. What a beautiful young lady! However, she looks very familiar. Where has he seen her before? He was currently focused on Guan Xin, so all these other distractions had to be set aside. If his goal wasn’t already set, he would have definitely pursued this flower lady.
Wang Shubin and Zhu Xiaozhang also thought that Yu Xiaoke looked very familiar. They don’t know where they’ve seen her before. They didn’t think too deeply on it because they assumed that she was there daily to sell flowers by the hospital entrance.
In actuality, Yu Xiaoke was wearing the nurses’ white robe when they first met. The look was completely different, but Kang Zhaoming, Zhu Xiaozhang, and Wang Shubin wouldn’t recognize that it was the prankster Yu Xiaoke that told them to go to the basement for the mortuary.
Yu Xiaoke, on the other hand, was able to recognize these three young masters. As a capable thief, her eyesight was very good. She could recognize the three fat sheep from afar, but she grew nervous as they walked toward her.
Could it be that they recognized her? Yu Xiaoke was deep in thought. Yu Xiaoke couldn’t just reveal herself. She knew what she had done by pranking them and stealing their wallet. She should just play it off as it was her first time meeting them.“Hey, how much are your flowers? I want to buy more. Do you have some in stock?” Zhu Xiaozhang’s tone was arrogant. The more he sounded like this, there was a higher chance that he would get taken advantage of.
“Of course I have. How many more do you want?! What flowers do you want?” Yu Xiaoke’s eyes lit up. She knew that these three idiots were giving away free money.
“We want roses. How many do you have? The ones in your hand aren’t enough for me!” Zhu Xiaozhang impatiently grunted.
“Roses are three yuan each. I have as many as you want. If there isn’t enough, I can give you the seed too,” Yu Xiaoke replied.
Zhu Xiaozhang heard Yu Xiaoke running her mouth and he felt that she wasn’t reliable. He wanted to go to the flower store on the side, but Kang Zhaoming spoke up before he can speak his suggestion.
“Ha, you are quite interesting!” Kang Zhaoming laughed. “Okay, we will buy it from you! I want ten thousand roses. I want it delivered to the hospital entrance. I want a sea of flowers. I want it within an hour. Can you do it or not?”
“Of course I can, but I require a bit of deposit first…” Yu Xiaoke was so happy. She didn’t expect that the first day she sold flowers, she would find an idiot who wouldn’t even bargain the price for an order of ten thousand roses!
Each rose was three yuan each, but that is only the price for individual sale. It was common sense that buying ten roses can get discounts and even have it wrapped up nicely!
“The deposit isn’t a problem. I can’t give you too much, but I can give you ten thousand yuan as a deposit. As for the remainder of the payment, I will pay it when you finish the job!” Kang Zhaoming spoke up. In his eyes, ten thousand yuan was a drop in a bucket. He could just get it back from Li Cihua’s compensation money, so he felt wealthy.
Yu Xiaoke heard the amount that Kang Zhaoming proposed. She didn’t dare to make a squeak. Ten thousand yuan! The wholesale price of ten thousand roses was less than ten thousand yuan. Currently, the wholesale price in Songshan was just fifty cents each, but bundle purchases could lower the price to thirty cents. Making the total price of the wholesale price to three thousand yuan!
This idiot straight up gave away ten thousand yuan away! What a profit! Yu Xiaoke was prepared to bargain and give them a discounted price of eighty cents. Obviously, these three were outsiders who didn’t know how to haggle prices. To give away so much money as the down payment!
Yu Xiaoke kept on a calm expression and replied, “Okay, once you give me the deposit, I will arrange for the delivery.”
Kang Zhaoming and his lackey didn’t even think of haggling. They felt that Yu Xiaoke’s flower selling activity couldn’t be too profitable. In fact, since each rose was only a few yuan, they felt that it was worth it! He was House Kang’s second young master. Why would he risk losing face with a couple of street vendors? If news got out, he would be laughed at!
Kang Zhaoming ordered Zhu Xiaozhang to withdraw ten thousand yuan to give to Yu Xiaoke. “Here is your deposit. If you do a good job, then there will be a bonus reward!”
For Kang Zhaoming, thirty thousand yuan was just chump change. That is why he offered Yu Xiaoke the opportunity for a bonus. It was worth it for the extra effort to do better.
The moment Yu Xiaoke heard that there was more money, her eyes lit up with money signs, which was why she offered Kang Zhaoming an extra hand. “Boss, may I ask who you are welcoming? Is it for someone like your girlfriend?”
“Yes! It’s my girlfriend! I want to express my love to her!” Kang Zhaoming jumped on the opportunity. He was in a very good mood and nodded “Yes, is there something else?”
“So you want to give it to your girlfriend. Do you want me to prepare some nice phrases for you?” Yu Xiaoke thought up. To earn so much money from them and with a possibility of a bonus, she felt like she should give them back a few benefits.
“That sounds good!” Kang Zhaoming was very satisfied with an enthusiastic worker. “A slogan sounds like a great idea! That is not a bad suggestion at all. If you need additional money, let me know! You are a smart young lady. Not bad at all!”
