Chapter 125: Chapter 99: You wouldn't compete with my daughter for a man, right?
Hu Hai University, military training was still in full swing.
At the university entrance, a red Bentley gently came to a stop.
The security guard stood at the entrance, walked to the car window, and said, "Hello, cars from outside the university are not allowed inside without permission."
As the window rolled down, inside was a mature and intellectual face of stunning beauty.
It was none other than Liu Rushuang.
Her smooth and fair cheeks showed no trace of age, her willow eyebrows were slender, her phoenix eyes sparkled, her high and shapely nose bridge, and her rosy lips always held a smile.
She was dressed in a light red cheongsam, and her curvy figure was perceptible even through the car window.
The guard found himself a bit parched at the sight. Hu Hai University was not short of beauties, but they were, after all, young students.
Men of a certain age actually prefer mature, fuller-figured women like her.
Cuteness ultimately stood no chance against sexiness.
"I'm Liu Rushuang, I've already notified Professor Bai today," she said with a smile.
"Oh, oh... let me check."
The guard came back to his senses, went into the security room to check, and then came out to let her in.
"Please come in."
"Thank you."
Liu Rushuang drove her car into the campus.
As the red Bentley disappeared, the guard swallowed hard again and popped a piece of betel nut into his mouth.
"No idea what kind of man is so lucky to be with her..."
The guard shook his head, fully aware that a woman like her was completely out of his league.
Sitting back in the security room, he picked up his phone and looked at "The Frivolous Campus Guard...," occasionally flashing a satisfied smile full of self-indulgence.
...
In the past few days, Xu Musen and Ma Yaxing had nearly finished coding the on-campus delivery app.
It had to be said, Ma Yaxing did have some talent, and although he usually kept quiet, he was genuinely hardworking.
While Xu Musen was already asleep in the middle of the night, Ma Yaxing would still be fixing bugs and reviewing the code.
After a trial run, there were basically no problems anymore.
However, as the number of merchants and user requests would increase, one computer would certainly not be enough.
It was necessary to find a place for a dedicated office, and to recruit delivery staff, it was essential to have a fixed location for paying salaries and holding motivational meetings.
You couldn't possibly cram everyone into a dorm room.
Xu Musen had also prepared a detailed introduction page, printed it on business cards and flyers.
During military training, the students were so tired that they didn't want to leave their beds once they returned to their dorms—it was the perfect opportunity to identify pain points for marketing.
Xu Musen stretched his arms, feeling ready to take the big leap into action.
He took an envelope from his chest and handed it directly to Ma Yaxing in the presence of Zhou Hangyu and Li Rundong.
"What's this?" Ma Yaxing pinched the envelope, opened it, and found three thousand yuan inside.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy shit!"
"This is..."
"As I said before, if you help me with the programming, I will pay you a salary," Xu Musen said, prompting Zhou Hangyu and Li Rundong to look over.
"It's just classmates helping each other out."
"When I say I'll pay, I'll definitely do so. This is what you deserve," said Xu Musen, who was never stingy with people who helped him.
"But isn't this too much?" Ma Yaxing looked at the money; his monthly allowance wasn't even a thousand yuan.
Just a few days of helping with programming and he received three thousand yuan—it felt like a pie falling from the sky.
"It's not too much," replied Xu Musen with a smile, patting him on the shoulder.
"Besides, I'm not asking you to take it for nothing. In the future, someone needs to keep an eye on these programs, and from now on, you'll be my security officer."
Ma Yaxing felt touched like never before; this was the first time in his life he had earned such a substantial amount by himself.
"Musen, you're a true friend. From now on, I'm all in with you!"
"Holy crap! This much? Brother Musen, are you still recruiting? I want to join you too!" Zhou Hangyu's eyes lit up at the sight of the three thousand yuan.
Even though his family was somewhat wealthy, the pocket money he received was limited, not nearly enough for impromptu trips to nightclubs.
Li Rundong also jumped in, "I want in too! If the salary is good, Brother Musen, I'm down for whatever!"
"Get lost, get lost. With your personalities, could you calmly stare at code every day?" Musen disdainfully retorted.
Zhou Hangyu and Li Rundong clicked their tongues, eyeing the hefty stack of red banknotes in Ma Yaxing's hands with envy. "You're just a rich man who doesn't know a poor man's troubles. You don't need to work hard to be kept by a rich lady, but we do."
The two stared longingly at the red bills, incessantly nagging Xu Musen for a chance.
"Fine, fine, since you're both so keen, I do have a task you should be able to handle," said Xu Musen with a troubled look, casually taking out a stack of leaflets and business cards he had prepared earlier from the drawer.
Since you two are willing to volunteer as leeks, I won't hold back.
"You help me promote our service at the canteen windows around the school. For each merchant you get to sign up, I'll give you a hundred yuan commission. How does that sound?"
Honestly, Xu Musen was offering a good deal. The shops in the school were concentrated and relatively easy to talk to.
With three canteens plus other tea shops, cafes, and small supermarkets, there were close to two hundred merchants. If the pair could secure them all, it would be a hefty sum.
Zhou Hangyu and Li Rundong were exactly the type to have the gift of the gab, making them perfect for field sales.
For this kind of promotion, being talkative was secondary; having the courage to speak was what mattered most.
