Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 26

“No need.” An Nuonuo forced a smile, “After school, I’ll set up a stall with my mom.

Selling one piece out of the pack would already be a win.

I can’t bother you with everything.”

Jiang Xu didn’t say anything, but he was already formulating a plan in his mind.

When school let out in the afternoon.

Jiang Xu caught up with Fu Yanjie, who was about to dash off to the Internet cafe, “I remember you being pretty good at art, right?”

“Naturally.” Fu Yanjie declared proudly, “My paintings are exhibition-worthy.”

“Great, I need your help with something. Let’s talk on the way.”

Saying this, he also grabbed An Nuonuo.

Along the way.

Jiang Xu shared his ideas.

Private customization!

Maybe it wouldn’t be too hard to sell regular white t-shirts.

But to sell five hundred pieces in a short amount of time would be extremely challenging.

“Are you sure this will actually work??” Fu Yanjie expressed his doubts.

After all, in this day and age, many areas don’t yet have this kind of sales model.

“Don’t worry, we have the upper hand.”

First, they bought some paints that wouldn’t fade.

Then, they went to An Nuonuo’s house.

At the entrance.

Li Yuanjuan was preparing to load bundles of clothes into a car to take to a street market.

“Hello, auntie.” Both boys greeted her.

“Ah, it’s Jiang Xu, hello, hello.” Li Yuanjuan responded warmly when she saw Jiang Xu, much like Chen Yue’s reaction when she saw An Nuonuo.

“Hello, auntie, this is my friend Fu Yanjie.” Jiang Xu said with a smile:

“Nuonuo told us about uncle’s situation. We just got out of school and don’t have much to do, so we thought we could help sell the clothes.”

You don’t have to, your studies are more important.” Li Yuanjuan hurriedly declined, even though her heart was filled with happiness.

Her daughter, usually reticent, had made a few friends who truly cared about her.

“Don’t worry, auntie, consider it a way for us to gain some real-world experience,” Jiang Xu reassured her.

“Mom, give me some clothes,” An Nuonuo chimed in, “Let’s give it a try.”

She wasn’t sure either, but she was willing to trust Jiang Xu this time.

“Alright, just be careful. The clothes cost eight yuan each. Sell them for ten or twelve yuan.”

In the end, Li Yuanjuan agreed.

She handed over twenty pieces of clothing.

Jiang Xu thought it was a bit too little, but he didn’t say anything further.

Without any proven results, Li Yuanjuan probably thought Jiang Xu was just playing around.

“Well, we’re off then, auntie.”

An Nuonuo left her car at home.

The clothes were placed in the back seat of Fu Yanjie’s car, and Jiang Xu gave An Nuonuo a ride.

“Where are we going to sell them?” An Nuonuo asked.

“The Internet cafe.”

“What?”

Both An Nuonuo and Fu Yanjie were flabbergasted.

Who would go to an Internet cafe to buy clothes?

Upon arriving at a nearby Internet cafe, Jiang Xu took out two sets of clothes.

He instructed Fu Yanjie, “Draw Naruto and Sasuke on the front of the shirts.”

The most popular anime of this era was undoubtedly Naruto.

The merchandise sold exceptionally well.

Especially among teenagers in their teens.

They were at the age of being self-conscious and nonconformist.

They loved flashy, distinctive things.

Things that they had, but others didn’t.

An Nuonuo didn’t understand, but she obediently stood to one side without saying a word.

Without thinking further, Fu Yanjie started drawing.

I must say.

Despite having average looks, average grades, and average intelligence, this kid had exceptional drawing skills.

A few minutes later, two shirts were done.

With that speed, Jiang Xu started to suspect that Fu Yanjie secretly had some strange method of practicing his drawing.

Jiang Xu examined them carefully.

The likenesses were excellent, and the details were well handled.

“Let’s go in.”

The three of them entered the Internet cafe.

Jiang Xu quickly scanned the place.

Then, he came up behind a yellow-haired guy.

The guy was playing Crazy Arcade.

Jiang Xu did not interrupt him.

Only after he finished a game did Jiang lightly pat his shoulder.

“Who are you? What do you want?”

The yellow-haired guy, annoyed at being interrupted, turned around with a menacing look in his eyes.

Jiang Xu smiled and said, “Sorry for the interruption, would you like to buy this shirt?”

While saying it, he unfolded a shirt in his hand.

It had Sasuke performing Chidori.

“Huh?” The yellow-haired guy’s eyes brightened, “This is pretty cool, how much is it?”

“Twenty-five.”

Both An Nuonuo and Fu Yanjie heard this and were privately astonished.

Jiang Xu was pretty audacious!

The shirt only cost eight yuan to make, and he was selling it for twenty-five yuan.

Would anyone really buy it?

“It’s a bit expensive.” The yellow-haired guy hesitated.

Jiang Xu said, “These shirts all have unique designs.

If you don’t like this one, we can customize one specifically for you on the spot.

It’s twenty-five yuan for just a design on the front.

If you want design on the both front and back, it’s thirty-two yuan.”

“You can customize it on the spot?” The yellow-haired guy got interested.

When he saw Jiang Xu nodding,

he immediately opened his own social media page,

and pointed to a picture of Naruto summoning a toad, “Can you do this one?”

Jiang Xu nodded, “No problem, but you need to pay half the deposit first.”

“Fine.”

Once the design was finalised along with the size of the shirt, Fu Yanjie started drawing according to the image.

This attracted a lot of people in the Internet cafe.

It only took a few minutes to complete the design.

Fu Yanjie appeared to be very used to drawing. It was clear he had a lot of designs in mind and was very fast.

The design looked impressive and imposing.

The yellow-haired guy’s eyes were bright, and he immediately put the shirt on.

Looking left and right, he was very satisfied.

He promptly paid the remainder of the costs.

An Nuonuo and Fu Yanjie were astonished.

Is earning money this easy?

The cost of the shirt was eight yuan.

And with the addition of a design, it was sold for three times the cost.

The astonishment was not without reason.

“I want one too. Draw me a Hinata.”

“I want Ino on the front, and Tsunade on the back. Remember to draw less clothes on Tsunade.”

“I want Orochimaru. Make it look freaky, hehe.”

…

People tend to follow trends.

On top of that, personalised customization was something many people were encountering for the first time.

Most importantly, these people were all at an age where they were particularly passionate and impressionable.

Upon seeing this, they were sure to get excited.

Fu Yanjie suddenly got very busy.

He was drawing non-stop.

The twenty shirts they brought sold out quickly.

Many people were not able to buy one.

Jiang Xu said, “We’re out of stock, please wait a moment, we’re going back to get more.”

The three of them left the Internet cafe.

The owner of Internet cafe ran out after them.

Handing each of them a bottle of drink, he said with a smile, “Please come back soon.”

The owner was quite business-minded.

He knew that this kind of behavior would bring him even more customers.

Jiang Xu smiled and nodded.

After leaving the Internet cafe, Jiang Xu counted the money.

The total was five hundred and seven yuan.

Exactly ten pieces were sold at twenty-five yuan each, and ten pieces at thirty-two yuan each.

Jiang Xu said, “Fu Yanjie gets five yuan for each design, so he gets a total of one hundred and fifty yuan for the thirty designs.

I didn’t do much, so I just get two yuan per shirt, that’s forty yuan in total.

The remaining three hundred and eight yuan goes to Nuonuo.”

Both An Nuonuo and Fu Yanjie were stunned.

In just an hour or two, they earned this much?
