Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance-Chapter 768 - 596: Night of Picking People Up

Chapter 768: Chapter 596: Night of Picking People Up
Qingbao was a little surprised to hear it.
"You have a driver’s license?"
"I do."
Even though she got a positive answer from Jiang Nian, Qingbao didn’t agree. She answered vaguely.
"Let’s see."
Jiang Nian wasn’t surprised by this. He had learned this trick from Qingbao, and it was enough that the thought was there.
"Okay."
Noon.
Jiang Nian entered the West Gate of the school, carrying a bottle of Sprite. He planned to stroll around a bit before going to the classroom for a nap.
The winter afternoon sun was warm and cozy on his body.
He was walking with his eyes squinted when his phone rang in his pocket. Zhou Haifei was calling, presumably to return something.
"Hello?"
"Jiang Nian, do you have time now?"
"It’s the middle of the day..." Jiang Nian was in a good mood and decided to tease her a bit, "You sure know how to pick a time."
"Huh?" Zhou Haifei sounded a little flustered.
"Then... then I’ll."
"Just kidding, I have time." Jiang Nian dropped the teasing tone, "What’s up? Do you need anything?"
"Return... return something."
Just as expected.
"Okay, I’ll come over later." Jiang Nian hung up the phone and headed towards the dormitory building, contemplating something.
He initially planned to buy and sell succulents before the winter break, but there were no people on the streets during the New Year.
It’s hard to cook without rice, so he had to give up.
Succulents, like Clivia in the 1980s, rose in price after a round of marketing.
Or just rename them, slap on a foreign label.
For example, Korean Ice Jade for eighty bucks each.
To put it simply, it’s just a large green area. After continuous hybrid breeding, these things came about.
The succulent market fell overall at the end of last year. But this spring, sales have visibly warmed up again.
The only difference is that prices have dropped.
A few days ago, Jiang Nian saw an article in China Flower saying people are more rational in choosing succulent prices.
In simple terms, the era of huge profits is over.
Gone are the days when having stock meant sales, and sales meant profit. But even with the price drop, sales are still climbing.
The common stock prices, if sold by the box, are pretty much close to cost.
E-commerce can make money, but in the era of traffic, big stores earn big. If you’re not familiar with the rules, you can’t earn much either.
Besides, Jiang Nian doesn’t have the time to compete with others.
With [Purchase] backing him, he doesn’t have any capital to risk. So naturally, he targets offline sales of mid-to-high-end succulents.
Even if prices were halved, it would still be profitable for him.
He just lacked an opportunity.
He was waiting, waiting for [Purchase] points to accumulate, so he could mass-purchase succulents and sell them quickly.
Though it might disrupt the market, the market was chaotic anyway.
So, it didn’t matter.
Without saying a word, Jiang Nian walked through the campus pathways. When entering the North District Dormitory, he saw a small store open along the way.
So, he casually bought a pack of lollipops.
The building where Zhou Haifei lived was co-ed. Students with money could rent, both male and female.
Lan Lan arranged a double room for Zhou Haifei, but she was currently living alone, so Jiang Nian came and went easily.
Without roommates, he could just go straight upstairs.
When Jiang Nian went upstairs, he saw a few dorm doors open. But there was no one chatting in the corridor, and few people were dropping by.
It could only be said, very typical Chinese-style youth.
The neighbors were high school girls; this kind of thing didn’t have fertile ground to sprout in small towns.
The warm winter sun was directly on the corridor. When Jiang Nian climbed to the fourth floor, he was hot and took off his jacket, rolling it up in his hand, and knocked on the door.
With a creaking sound, the door with an iron frame opened.
"You’re here?"
"Yeah."
Jiang Nian took a glance as he entered; the room was clean and tidy. The sun shone directly through the big window, giving off a warm feeling.
"For you."
He handed over the candy, "Saw the store open on my way here, felt awkward coming empty-handed."
"Huh?" Zhou Haifei instinctively refused, "I... don’t eat it."
"I don’t eat it either, don’t feel like carrying it back." Jiang Nian shrugged, "If you don’t want it, just throw it away for me."
Zhou Haifei: "...."
She glanced at the candy brand, White Rabbit. Not expensive but she wouldn’t buy it without a reason.
"Thank you."
"No need." Jiang Nian waved it off, sitting on the empty bed, "When does the cafeteria open?"
"Tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian nodded.
He wasn’t in a rush to leave, took out his phone, and started replying to messages. It wasn’t even one o’clock yet, so taking a break didn’t matter.
"Um..."
Zhou Haifei suddenly spoke up, "Teacher Lan Lan, she... didn’t let me do any work, just asked me to wait."
Jiang Nian glanced at her, "Hmm, what’s wrong?"
"It’s nothing, just..." Zhou Haifei hesitated, "I’m a volunteer, not working, will it...?"
Jiang Nian suddenly said, "Lan Lan helped you, don’t put her in a tough spot, okay?"
"Huh?" Zhou Haifei suddenly looked up.
"If you don’t work, she doesn’t have to work either," he said, "Should she make up some work for you?"
"No no no, that’s not what I meant." Zhou Haifei immediately put her head down, not daring to ask about it anymore.
The dorm fell silent.
Jiang Nian leisurely sat there, not seeming to plan on leaving. His eyes wandered around, finally resting on the small green plant on the windowsill.
"Your succulents?"
"Picked up."
...
Jiang Nian came out of the building, his mood visibly better.
As expected, just wandering around.
[Purchase] was activated.
However, he was in no hurry to buy succulents. He couldn’t cultivate them anyway, and the points couldn’t buy many plants.
Better to save them, it’s also an income.
Jiang Nian carried the bag with the electric cooker, heading from North District Dormitory to the teacher apartment, temporarily leaving it in the small storage room.
As he was about to leave, he accidentally kicked a chair.
