Chapter 290: How to Divide the Rooms?
Thanks to Chen Fan's idea, the originally neglected stall suddenly became lively.
The girls were standing by, calling out to tourists, while the guys were busy handing out rings and collecting money.
Luo Wenjie watched from the sidelines, marveling, "Look at this scene, doesn't it look like an ancient pleasure house? A bunch of girls coming out to solicit customers? You're becoming more and more like a pimp."
Ma Xiaoshuai glanced at Luo Wenjie, "Do you believe me if I shout this out, these girls will directly chop you to death?"
Luo Wenjie quickly raised his hands in surrender, "Okay, okay, I'll go buy drinks for everyone right now, I'll be responsible for everyone's logistical support."
With money to be made, everyone was naturally highly motivated.
Even the beauties of dorm 326 who didn't participate in the extracurricular practice were busy back and forth, full of energy this evening.
The stall remained open until 10 pm. If Chen Fan hadn't called for a stop, the group could have probably continued all night.
After all, the feeling of making money was too cool.
A few guys volunteered to clean up the stall, while the girls happily ate cold drinks on the side.
"It was so hot today, and everyone's tired from working all day, why don't we go back and eat first?" Wu Di suggested with a smile.
The girls had no objections, and naturally, neither did the boys.
After consulting a few girls' opinions, everyone headed to a night market two streets away from the ancient building.
"Ladies, let's eat some simple barbecue today. When this extracurricular practice ends, our dorm will definitely treat you all to a big meal to make up for it," said Wu Di on behalf of the dorm, naturally winning smiles and teasing from the girls.
More than a dozen people combined three tables into a circle to sit around.
Luo Wenjie was very generous, having confidently patted his chest earlier, saying he would treat everyone tonight.
He waved over a waitress and glanced at the menu, waving his hand grandly, "Just cook everything on here for me."
The waitress froze, looking at Luo Wenjie like he was an idiot.
Ma Xiaoshuai chuckled and snatched the menu, explaining to the female waitress, "Don't mind him, he has a bit of a problem with his brain."
Ma Xiaoshuai then ordered a large number of dishes, fully catering to the tastes of both genders.
Finally, he didn't forget to tell the waitress, "Also, two packs of beer, and we'll ask for more when we finish them."
They were all young people, and since they were so familiar with each other, there weren't many rules among young people. After the dishes arrived, they started drinking.
This time, the girls also had a beer each, and no one spoiled the fun.
"How much money did we make today?"
On the girls' side, someone couldn't help but ask curiously.
Everyone's gaze turned to Ma Xiaoshuai, who was in charge of managing the accounts.
However, there was too much money collected tonight, and he hadn't had a chance to tally it up yet.
Seeing everyone's curious looks, Ma Xiaoshuai took out the money bag and started counting on the spot.
Everyone took a handful of cash and happily began counting.
Finally, adding up everyone's totals, it came to 1,255 yuan.
Everyone was stunned.
That was way too much. Not only did they recover everyone's initial capital, but they even profited by several hundred.
Most importantly, this was just the first day.
In fact, everyone had wasted a whole day, and the actual money-making time was only in the evening.
In other words, in just over four hours that night, everyone had made more than 1,000 yuan.
"Hey, there are still three days left in the vacation. At this rate, I think we'll definitely be able to get the credits," Sun Hao said excitedly, rubbing his hands together.
"All thanks to Old Chen. If it weren't for your idea, we would have lost our investment today."
Wu Di said with a smile, of course he wouldn't take credit away from Chen Fan. Compared to making money, he cared more about getting the credits.
His words reminded everyone, and instantly all the girls' eyes turned toward Chen Fan.
On the other side, Ma Xiaoshuai was still joking, "Indeed, people in business have a sharper eye."
"This is almost like taking candy from a baby. We made over a thousand yuan, but that pile of plush toys and small accessories, we didn't really give out many."
Luo Wenjie smiled and patted Chen Fan's shoulder, "Just look at who our brother Fan is. In terms of looks, brother Fan may be a bit inferior to me, but when it comes to making money, I, Luo Wenjie, bow to no one except brother Fan."
"Just look at our school, who else could start two internet cafes in their freshman year? Absolutely amazing."
Mentioning this, some girls across didn't know about it before and started whispering to each other inquiringly.
After learning that Chen Fan actually had another internet cafe in the university town area, the few girls looked at Chen Fan with strange expressions.
Especially Liu Qianqian and Li Jiao, who had previously actively pursued Chen Fan, their expressions revealed frustration.
The two of them had noticed Chen Fan's exceptional qualities in their freshman year and even actively pursued him, but unfortunately, Chen Fan showed no interest in them at all.
Looking at the gentle and reserved Su Ruochu, who rarely spoke and was sitting right next to Chen Fan, the two felt a deep sense of helplessness.
It seemed they couldn't even win against her in appearance.
Chen Fan was speechless listening to their comments.
"Enough chatter, are you drinking or not?"
Wu Di joked with a smile, "Hey, Old Chen, tell us, how did you come up with this idea?"
Chen Fan looked speechless. Did this even need thinking?
In his previous life, weren't ring toss stalls like this ubiquitous at night markets and scenic areas?
But now, major scenic areas haven't developed to such a crazy extent yet.
Across from him, Han Xu's girlfriend's eyes flickered, as if she had an idea.
"This method is not bad. Can we take advantage of future vacations to set up stalls and earn living expenses?"
Her words reminded everyone, and instantly many people's eyes lit up, as if starting to take action.
Chen Fan smiled and reminded them, "That's a good idea. But before setting up a stall, it's best to observe the location first, preferably in a night market or scenic area with high foot traffic."
Ma Xiaoshuai chimed in with a smile, "And one more point, you must have an extremely valuable and eye-catching prize."
Chen Fan looked at Ma Xiaoshuai with satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad, you're indeed the son of a businessman, so perceptive."
Hearing this, Ma Xiaoshuai immediately quipped, "Yeah right, just trying to take advantage of me again, huh?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
It was almost midnight by the time this meal finished.
At this hour, they basically couldn't return to school, so someone suggested staying at a hotel, and the girls naturally had no objections.
Since they had all been drinking and would continue running the stall tomorrow, neither Ma Xiaoshuai nor Chen Fan had driven.
Everyone simply crossed the street and found a nearby express hotel.
Booking rooms was naturally the responsibility of the boys.
Luo Wenjie wanted to take charge again, but this time everyone disagreed, and they ultimately decided that the six 519 boys would split the cost evenly.
Ma Xiaoshuai came back from the service desk holding a stack of room cards.
"Everyone, how should we divide the rooms tonight?"
