Chapter 196: Miss Chu, My Young Master Invites You to Have Coffee
Chu Luo deliberately stopped to listen. She was a little surprised that the butler was talking to Chen Xuan about management.
The butler quickly discovered Chu Luo standing upstairs. He greeted her and asked, “Miss Chu, breakfast is ready. Do you want to eat now, or do you want to go for a run first?”
Chu Luo looked outside the door. She had woken up a little late today, and the sun had already risen. As she went downstairs, she said, “Have breakfast.”
The butler went out to serve her breakfast. Chu Luo and Chen Xuan sat on the sofa and started chatting.
Chen Xuan said, “Mr. Beitang is especially good at management. Upon hearing his words, I feel enlightened.”
Chu Luo thought about how Abel seemed to ask Beitang Hong for guidance on many things. She guessed that Beitang Hong was the head butler and nodded in agreement. “He is in charge of a lot of people.”
Chen Xuan didn’t understand what she meant, but he didn’t mind. Then, he looked at Chu Luo with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to ask something but didn’t know how to.
Chu Luo guessed what he wanted to ask and said, “Ask whatever you want.”
Chen Xuan was silent for a while before saying, “I didn’t expect Boss and Master Li to be husband and wife.”
Chu Luo opened her mouth but didn’t deny it in the end.
Chen Xuan continued, “I didn’t expect the famous Master Li to live in the old district. Moreover, his legs…”
Chu Luo looked at Chen Xuan and smiled slightly. “You can pretend that you don’t know about this.”
Chen Xuan was stunned and quickly nodded. “I understand. As long as Boss and Master Li don’t want it revealed, I definitely won’t tell anyone.”
Chu Luo nodded, not caring at all.
She changed the topic and asked, “Your older brother treated you so badly. Do you want him to lose everything?”
Chen Xuan’s expression turned cold. “I already called those debt collectors last night. They should be looking for him today.”
Chu Luo nodded. “Very good.”
The manager she wanted should be decisive and shouldn’t be soft-hearted.
The two of them hadn’t talked for long when the butler served Chu Luo breakfast.
For the rest of the day, Chu Luo stayed in the herbs refining room. Chen Xuan stood at the side and listened to her talk about the ratio.
The next day, Chu Luo made several kinds of skincare products.
These skincare products included men’s and women’s skincare products.
Chu Luo decided to give them all away.
She said to Chen Xuan, “These skincare products will show their effects in a month. Your current mission is to buy enough herbs to bring over. At the same time, find a good supplier.”
“Boss, don’t worry. I have my sources. I can finish purchasing the herbs in three days.”
“Very good.” Chu Luo handed him a card. “There are 1.5 billion yuan on the card. The pa.s.sword is x.x.xx.x.x. After you finish these tasks, go over to that place immediately. There are no more workers in the factory. You have to find a way to recruit a batch of workers.”
Chen Xuan thought for a moment and asked tentatively, “Boss, can I bring some people over?”
Chu Luo was a little surprised.
Chen Xuan said, “I used to supply medicinal herbs to the army and know many people who had retired from the army after being injured. Unwilling to increase the burden on the country, many of them only find jobs or start businesses themselves. But the truth is, it’s more difficult than one would imagine. I want to give them a good job.”
“Can you guarantee that they’ll be willing to go overseas with you?”
“That depends on how much the boss is willing to pay them.”
Chu Luo smiled. “I’ll leave this matter to you. You can decide on how much to pay them.”
Chen Xuan also smiled. “Then I’ll thank Boss on behalf of everyone.”
Chu Luo added, “After you go over, get someone to make 500 sets of finished products. The sooner, the better.”
Chen Xuan was a little surprised. “Boss, what do you plan to do?”
“I’ll give them all away. I’ll get someone to advertise them.”
Chen Xuan was even more surprised. “Who does Boss intend to give them to?”
Chu Luo didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she asked, “Have you played ‘Battle of Lightyears’ before?”
“Yes. I think everyone who knows how to use a computer knows how to play it.”
“That’s right. Tell me, what do you think the effects of having ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ advertise the products would be?”
Chen Xuan was shocked and couldn’t help but give a thumbs up to Chu Luo’s bold idea. “If we manage to get them to advertise them, I think our products will go viral, especially if we get [Bai Ling] to do so…”
At this point, Chen Xuan suddenly asked excitedly, “Boss, do you know them?”
Chu Luo replied, “I’m Bai Ling.”
…
Chen Xuan left feeling an indescribable excitement.
Chu Luo didn’t stay idle. She gave the few sets of skincare products that she had made over the past two days to Professor Wu’s family. When she went, Wu Yiyao was still at home alone.
Chu Luo handed the cosmetics to her. The two of them chatted casually for a while before Chu Luo said, “I still have to send these to a few seniors. I’ll leave first.”
Wu Yiyao quickly stopped her. “Little Chu, I’ll go with you. Coincidentally, the school wants me to report for the next few days, so I might as well go today… Wait for me for a few minutes, I’ll go change.”
After saying that, she took the cosmetics and walked upstairs. As she walked, she said to her, “Little Chu, do as you please. There’s fruit on the coffee table.”
Chu Luo responded and walked over to eat fruits while waiting for Wu Yiyao to come down.
Wu Yiyao was upstairs for nearly five minutes before coming down. She walked in front of Chu Luo and deliberately walked around her. “Little Chu, how do I look?”
Chu Luo smiled and said, “You look beautiful.”
Wu Yiyao covered her mouth and laughed. “I used the makeup you gave me. It feels really different.”
The two of them walked out of the door as they spoke. Wu Yiyao had high praises for the makeup Chu Luo had given her. “This fragrance suits me too well. I’ve never liked using perfume. I just felt that it was unnatural. The fragrance of your makeup smells so natural. Also, the effects are amazing, I feel like my face has become much more tender.”
“Of course.”
Chu Luo drove Wu Yiyao to Imperial University.
Wu Yiyao went straight to report. As she left, she said to Chu Luo, “Little Chu, I’m going to my father’s place later. If you want to come over, give me a call.”
“Okay.”
Other than the bicycles in the school, there was also a school bus. Wu Yiyao took the school bus.
w.a.n.g Mingtao’s school card had been left at Chu Luo’s place last time. Chu Luo could ride her bike there.
There were still a few days before the students were to report to school. Other than those who didn’t go home and those from the Student Union, there weren’t many people around.
Chu Luo wore a big hat, hat, and sungla.s.ses as she rode her bike to the Computer Science Department. She didn’t attract much attention.
Tang Zhiyun and the other two had been staying in the library all this time. They were already waiting at the parking spot outside the library.
Xie Minghai deliberately complained, “Junior, what do you have to give us? Why didn’t you tell us over the phone? I couldn’t program anything for the past two hours.”
The others were also a little surprised to see that she didn’t bring anything with her.
Chu Luo turned around and pointed at the basket in front of the bike. “There.”
The guys quickly walked over to retrieve the items and looked at them.
Tang Zhiyun was a little confused. “Why do I feel that these are skincare products?”
Chu Luo: “…”
Xie Minghai rubbed his chin. “They’re obviously skincare products… Could it be that Junior is giving them to us to remind us that we should find a girlfriend to give them to?”
Chu Luo: “…”
Yu Lei was jealous of Xie Minghai’s words. “Tsk… Minghai, that’s enough. Why are you daydreaming on this summer day? Junior must have bought too much, so she’s asking us to help her use it up.”
Chu Luo: “…”
Xu Qingfeng thought for a moment before saying, “Maybe Junior thinks that we look too ungroomed.”
Chu Luo really didn’t know what expression to show. In the end, she deliberately said with a wooden face, “I plan to use you guys as guinea pigs and see if the effects are good.”
The boys actually believed her.
Xie Minghai asked, “Are you going to give them to your boyfriend so you’re testing them on us first?”
Tang Zhiyun said, “Junior, you are still young. You can only find a boyfriend in a few years…”
Chu Luo resisted the urge to hold a hand to her forehead and gestured for them to stop. She said, “These are cosmetics that I developed myself. Try them. If the effects are good, help me endorse them. We’ll discuss the endors.e.m.e.nt fee when the time comes.”
The boys were dumbfounded.
Chu Luo gestured at them. “I’ll talk to you guys somewhere.”
The bunch of them went to the tap beside the library and found a quiet corner to sit down. Chu Luo briefly told them what had happened.
When they heard that, of course they agreed.
Xie Minghai patted his chest. “So that’s how it is. Junior, why are you even talking about endors.e.m.e.nt fees? I’m more than happy to help you out a little.”
The other three didn’t want any endors.e.m.e.nt fees either.
Chu Luo didn’t insist. She smiled and said, “In that case, I’ll take care of your and your girlfriend’s cosmetics from now on.”
The four boys would definitely agree.
Just as they finished speaking, w.a.n.g Mingtao came over.
There was still sweat on his fringe. It was obvious that he had run over.
“Whew, Sister Chu, I’m here. Why did you call me out?”
Chu Luo looked at him and twitched her lips. “Didn’t I ask you to wait for me outside the school?”
As she spoke, she handed him three sets of skincare products and stood up to say to everyone, “I’m going back.”
w.a.n.g Mingtao quickly said, “Sister Chu, I’ll leave with you.”
The two of them rode their bikes towards the school gate. Just as they reached the school gate, w.a.n.g Mingtao suddenly asked Chu Luo, “Sister Chu, are the two people standing beside your car your bodyguards?”
Chu Luo looked at the two of them and strode over. As she walked, she said, “Not my bodyguards.”
w.a.n.g Mingtao was startled and quickly followed her. “Sister Chu, wait for me.”
As soon as Chu Luo walked over, one of the bodyguards stepped forward and said, “Miss Chu, my young master invites you for a cup of coffee.”
