Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

"My business is getting better and better now, and I'm making more money than before."

"I was thinking, could we stock up on some more expensive jewelry, targeting students from wealthier families? What do you think?"

After thinking for a while, Chen Dong said, "Third Aunt, this is a good idea."

"However, expensive jewelry also carries greater risks. You need to conduct a small survey first to see how many students are willing to buy it before deciding on the quantity to order."

"You can first display some samples at your stall and ask the students for their opinions. If there are many interested people, then it's not too late to order more stock."

Chen Guilan nodded in agreement: "Dongzi, you've thought of everything."

"I also want to rent a small shop near the No. 4 Middle School, so I won't have to push my tricycle around every day."

"Furthermore, the store can display more accessories, giving customers a better environment to choose from. What do you think?"

Chen Dong replied with a smile, "Third Aunt, this is a good long-term plan."

"However, before renting a shop, you need to calculate the costs, including rent, renovation, utilities, etc., to see if it is worthwhile."

"Moreover, the location of the store is also very important. It should be located in a place with high student traffic and easy to see."

Chen Guilan said confidently, "Dongzi, I've thought it all out. I'll go look around the area near No. 4 Middle School in the next few days to see if there are any suitable shops."

"I believe that as long as I manage this business with care, it will definitely get better and better."

Chen Dong encouraged her, "Third Aunt, I believe in you. With your hard work and ideas, you're sure to succeed."

"If you have any questions in the future, please feel free to tell me."

In the days that followed, Chen Guilan continued to run her small jewelry stall while keeping an eye on shop information near the Fourth Middle School.

Following Chen Dong's advice, she conducted a small-scale market survey on expensive jewelry.

She displayed several exquisite silver necklaces and earrings at her stall and asked the students for their opinions.

"Classmates, look at these necklaces and earrings, aren't they beautiful?"

"This is made of silver, and it's of very good quality."

"If these were sold in a store near our school, at what price would you be willing to buy them?"

Chen Guilan asked the students who had gathered around.

A girl looked at it carefully and said, "Auntie, if this necklace were priced under three yuan, I might consider buying it."

"But if it's more than three yuan, I might think it's a bit expensive."

The other students nodded in agreement.

Chen Guilan had a better understanding of the situation and knew that pricing was crucial for expensive jewelry.

She decided to first stock a small quantity of silver jewelry priced between two and five dollars and three dollars, and then adjust her order based on sales performance.

Finally, Chen Guilan found a suitable small shop near the Fourth Middle School.

Although the shop is small, it has a great location, right across the street from the school gate, where there is a lot of foot traffic.

After some haggling with the landlord, she finally rented the place at a reasonable price.

After renting the shop, Chen Guilan began the renovation.

She didn't have much money, so she chose a simple and cozy decorating style.

The walls were painted a light pink, the shelves were neatly arranged, and some small fairy lights were hung in the store to create a romantic atmosphere.

Chen Dong visited his aunt's shop over the weekend and exclaimed, "Auntie, the shop is decorated very well!"

"It looks very cozy; the students will definitely love it."

Chen Guilan said with a smile, "Dongzi, this is all thanks to your idea."

"I'm really looking forward to the store opening so that business can take it to the next level."

Before the store opened, Chen Guilan carefully prepared various small ornaments.

In addition to the original affordable jewelry, we also received a batch of new limited edition and expensive jewelry.

She put up a large opening poster at the store entrance, which read: "Grand Opening Special! 20% off everything!"

Limited edition jewelry available on a first-come, first-served basis! Membership system completely upgraded!

On opening day, the store was packed with students.

They curiously picked out their favorite jewelry in the store, while Chen Guilan and her newly recruited helpers were busy and happy.

"Auntie, this limited edition headband is so pretty! I want one."

"Auntie, I'm a member, and I'd like to redeem that free bracelet."

Looking at the bustling scene in the store, Chen Guilan was filled with joy and gratitude.

With Chen Dong's help, her small jewelry business has gotten on track and has unlimited potential for the future.

She secretly made up her mind to manage the business well, live up to her family's expectations, and create a bright future for herself!

......

On Monday, Chen Dong and Guo Miao arrived at school together.

As Chen Dong entered the classroom, his gaze immediately fell on Chu Mengran.

A fleeting, almost imperceptible worry flashed across his eyes.

For the past two weeks, every Saturday and Sunday, when Chu Mengran returned to school from home...

His whole demeanor changed completely.

She became increasingly quiet and withdrawn, and the occasional sparkle in her eyes had dimmed considerably.

At this moment, Chu Mengran seemed to have built an invisible high wall around herself.

Aside from having some subtle emotional reactions when facing Chen Dong.

He was extremely indifferent to everyone else, even Guo Miao, who was inseparable from Chen Dong, and hardly wanted to talk to them.

Chen Dong sighed inwardly, "Meng Ran's depression is getting worse, but unfortunately, Third Sister can't find any useful information."

He was filled with worry, yet also with a deep sense of helplessness.

Although the third sister's criminal gang was powerful, the people she sent were watching Meng Zhengguo almost 24 hours a day.

But the old man's behavior outside was impeccable, and no suspicious points could be found at all.

After all, the Third Sister's people are still part of the underworld. It's not that they're afraid to investigate further, but rather that they're subject to many restrictions.

They couldn't openly go into the workshop or barge into Meng Zheng's house to keep an eye on things.

Because if you do that, the nature of the matter will change completely, and it will cause a series of unmanageable troubles.

At noon, the bell rang crisply, signaling the end of the morning's classes.

The students stood up from their seats, and the classroom instantly became noisy.

Guo Miao moved his feet and walked hesitantly to Chen Dong's seat.

Her eyes involuntarily glanced at Chen Dong's deskmate, Chu Mengran.

Guo Miao asked uncertainly, "Brother Dong, are we having lunch together again?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Dong immediately turned to look at Chu Mengran.

With a questioning look in her eyes, she called out softly, "Mengran, shall we have lunch together?"

Chu Mengran glanced at Guo Miao, and the scene of having lunch with Chen Dong and Guo Miao together recently flashed into her mind.
