Chapter 90: You knew I was lying, yet you still gave it to me?
Shen Youqing hissed in pain, tilting her head back. After a while, she didn't know whether she had gotten used to it or whether Jiang Cheng's technique was really effective.
The pain gradually subsided, and it even felt somewhat comfortable.
Biting her lip, she looked at Jiang Cheng, and the usually aloof and reserved woman showed a rare hint of demureness.
"Okay...it's okay," Shen Youqing said softly, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Jiang Cheng looked up and glanced at Shen Youqing's face. "You still say it doesn't hurt? Your face is all red from the pain. What's with the girl being so stubborn? Sit still and don't move. I'll give you a final blood circulation boost."
After a while, Shen Youqing couldn't help but ask, "Do I need to improve blood circulation even if my toes and soles don't hurt?"
"Ahem... The meridians are interconnected; this is called a feint attack." Jiang Cheng coughed lightly and said:
"That's about enough. Try standing up and see if it still hurts. If it still hurts, I'll come back."
Shen Youqing lowered her head, put her feet down on the sofa, and put on her shoes.
The movements were slow, and he didn't look up.
She put her little feet into high heels and tried to stand up.
Ok?
Shen Youqing's eyes lit up, and she turned left and right on the spot, her high heels clicking lightly on the ground.
"It really doesn't hurt anymore, Jiang Cheng. I thought you were lying to me. It turns out you really can do it?"
Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean? You think I'm lying to you? Then why did you let me press it?"
"Believe it halfway, but give it a try."
Her ankle didn't hurt anymore, or rather, it still hurt a little, but it was much better than before. Shen Youqing was in a good mood and stuck out her little tongue.
"Oh, right." Shen Youqing seemed to suddenly remember something, "Your stall downstairs is doing worse and worse. When I went to check, I heard people saying that your stall is run by scammers and that you are heartless."
As Shen Youqing spoke, her eyebrows furrowed unconsciously.
"Okay, I'll go down and take a look," Jiang Cheng said calmly.
The market has entered a state of disorder, and even he can't predict what will happen next.
This is also the most attractive aspect of commerce during periods of rapid development.
When something new appears, a bunch of people will come in and beat the dog's brains.
Just like e-commerce in the past, as well as smartphones, new energy vehicles, and the group-buying wars of the past, all follow this pattern.
Of course, Jiang Cheng didn't intend to miss out on any of these industries. He felt he would have lived in vain if he didn't go in and fight them.
I went outside, rubbed my fingers, and headed downstairs.
"Wait for me, I'm coming too." Shen Youqing followed from the office.
She told Jiang Cheng about this to see what he could do.
She cared more about the stalls downstairs from Jiangcheng than Jiangcheng himself did.
The sense of accomplishment from cultivating this skill was incredibly appealing to her, given her naturally aloof nature and lack of friends.
……
The stalls downstairs, though not as busy as before, still had quite a few people. After all, the fun of opening blind boxes is still quite appealing in the current climate of limited entertainment and a slow-to-take-off economy.
Because there were fewer people, no one was in a hurry to grab the rings, so the people who wanted to toss the rings for free were very slow, holding the rings up to the wallets on the ground and gesturing with them repeatedly.
And you know what? The more you practice, the higher the accuracy becomes. The probability of hitting the target is higher than when there are many people around.
People who buy blind boxes are also slow to open them, often taking a long time to choose from several boxes.
"Boss, when are you going to lower your prices? Jiale next door sells blind boxes that are also wallets. They're eight yuan each, and many boxes even have two or three wallets inside. You can exchange ten wallets for a pair of leather shoes."
Another person said, "It's not just leather shoes, I just looked over there and you can exchange them for winter knitwear and a complete summer outfit. The owner said they're even planning to add a four-piece set tomorrow."
"Yeah, boss, each of your blind boxes costs ten yuan, and there's only one wallet inside at most, and you can only exchange for a few items, just a pair of leather shoes."
"To be honest, there's really nothing appealing about this place. The only thing worth anything is Nick. If I hadn't come here for Nick, I wouldn't have bought anything."
"This is obviously a scam, okay? They're just trying to trick everyone into thinking there's a Nick inside. Other people's blind boxes are eight yuan each, and if you open one and find three wallets inside, you can sell them to other people for four yuan each. Once you have ten wallets, you can exchange them for something."
"So, Jiale can exchange for something for forty yuan, and there's a lot to choose from. Here, you need ten ten-yuan wallets, and you need one hundred yuan to exchange for something."
Jiang Cheng stood next to the entrance of the mall, but didn't go to the stalls. He just listened to the people around the stalls talking.
Shen Youqing stood next to Jiang Cheng, arms crossed, one high heel planted firmly on the ground, the toe sticking up high and swaying back and forth: "Look, a lot of people say that place is good, blind boxes are cheap, and there are more things to exchange. What are you planning to do?"
Jiang Cheng chuckled softly and said, "There's nothing I can do. I don't need to do anything. He'll die on his own."
"Who? You mean Jiale's blind boxes?" Shen Youqing thought for a moment and said, "No way, I can calculate their cost price, they won't lose money."
Jiang Cheng shook his head. "No need to lose money."
Shen Youqing asked, "Why is that?"
"No rush, let the bullets fly for a while."
"What if it didn't die and did a good job?" Shen Youqing was somewhat unconvinced, but more curious.
Jiang Cheng said, "It's alright, I'll take care of it."
Shen Youqing: ? ? ?
Her mouth was slightly open; she felt refreshed by those words, a feeling she couldn't quite put her finger on.
"Mr. Jiang, may I have a word with you in private?"
Jiang Cheng and Shen Youqing were chatting when a man in a suit walked over to Jiang Cheng's side.
It was Song Dajiang, the chairman of Jiale.
"No, you live in Yancheng?" Jiang Cheng looked at Song Dajiang with some surprise.
Like Yonghui, Jiale's headquarters are in Shanghai.
Chairman Song Dajiang should be working in Shanghai, so why is he still in Yancheng?
Song Dajiang smiled awkwardly and said, "I also rushed over yesterday. It's not that Mr. Jiang is unwilling to cooperate, but I have to think of a way myself."
As Song Dajiang spoke, he glanced at Shen Youqing.
He probably also knew Shen Youqing's identity: the daughter of his old rival.
But his old rival's daughter was following the young man around like a shadow, which made him even more interested in Jiangcheng.
But after hearing Song Dajiang's explanation, Jiang Cheng didn't react much, only smiling politely.
Song Dajiang came here specifically to find Jiangcheng, so of course he wouldn't just leave like that.
"What do you think of my work, Mr. Jiang? The idea was learned from Mr. Jiang."
"But my only goal is traffic. I don't need to make money. I just need to create a good buzz. Right now, no matter who comes to the market, I can offer the most affordable prices. There are also many things that can be exchanged. Right now, it's leather shoes and clothes. I will soon add things that everyone needs in their lives."
