Chapter 364: Exciting Short Message


Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko


Taking the aristocratic route was a very tempting idea.


Many businessmen know that this is a good way to make money. Even though the cost is almost the same, one is the price of an ordinary citizen, while the other is a premium pricing! Many businessmen crack their heads to raise their brand to a higher level, but the success rate is very low.


Let’s take the simplest example: fast food restaurants. Plenty of domestic companies had invested in countless funds. They wanted to establish a fast food restaurant that can compete with KFC and McDonald’s, but most of them have failed. Even for those which were lucky enough to survive, they cannot be compared to KFC and McDonald’s at all.


Therefore, a brand couldn’t only be created with money. There must also be the right opportunities. Time and place are important, but the most important thing is also the people. What’s most valuable is giving what others need most when they need it the most. Only through that way can a strong brand be built.


Regarding these, it was just right that Yang Ming had prepared all of them. Yang Ming had money, Zhang Jiefang for the relationship in the industry, and the brand name of Liu Weishan! Therefore, it wasn’t difficult to build a luxury brand quickly!


Generally, the price of a piece of jewelry would soar by a few times after Liu Weishan’s validation with an appraisal book, never mind a jewelry company personally authorized by Liu Weishan!


Therefore, Yang Ming believed just like what his godfather had said. If you do this, it will be difficult not to succeed.


“We are selling luxury items. There’s my reputation on one end, but the most important aspect is using good quality materials!” Liu Weishan said, “The father of your classmate should have the channel for this aspect. We’re not afraid of the high cost. We’re just afraid of bad quality materials.”


“I understand.” Yang Ming nodded. Liu Weishan only gave him the general concepts and recommendations. As for the specific operational matters, it was necessary for him to discuss with Zhang Jiefang before deciding.


Early the next morning, Yang Ming came to the Central Secondary School according to the time that he had set with Wu Zhongjie yesterday. This was a private middle school. Just judging by the teaching facilities, it was much better than the Red Flag Junior High School that Yang Ming went to.


The school seemed to have a semi-closed school management system[1]. The gate was locked during schooling hours, and students were not allowed to go out. But in this way, Yang Ming was not able to enter too.


Yang Ming knocked on the lock on the door. After a while, an old man came out from the mailroom near the entrance. He asked Yang Ming, “What are you doing? Why are you here?”


“Sir, I am Wu Zhongjie’s elder brother in Grade 8, Class 9. His class teacher is looking for me.” Yang Ming said.


Oh? You’re the parent of Wu Zhongjie?” asked the old man.


“Sir, do you know Wu Zhongjie?” Yang Ming said, is this little brat that famous?


“How would I not know? He was fighting near the school gate yesterday evening. Moreover, it was I who looked for their class teacher!” The old man said.


“…” Yang Ming secretly swore, This old man was really a busybody. If it weren’t for the old man, I guess I didn’t have to come today.


“You wait for a moment. Let me call their class teacher.” After the old man finished, he turned to go back into the mailroom. After a long while, he walked out and unlocked the gate. He said to Yang Ming, “You can come in now. The class teacher of Grade 8, Class 9 is Teacher Gao. He works on the second floor of the teaching building, number 206! ”


“Understood, thank you, sir.” Yang Ming said a few polite greetings and went inside the school. According to the instructions of the old man, he found Teacher Gao’s office.


“May I ask, who the class teacher of the Grade 8, Class 9 is?” Yang Ming knocked on the door and asked.


Eh? How come it’s you?” A tall, thin man stood up from a desk and walked quickly to the door, then he looked at Yang Ming and said with excitement, “Brother Yang!”


“Old Gao?” Yang Ming was stunned. He looked at the thin man in front of him. “Gao Dexin?”


“It’s me, Brother Yang. You came here for me?” Gao Dexin asked.


“For you? You are the class teacher of Grade 8, Class 9? Is there any mistake?” Yang Ming looked at the person in front of him, astonished.


“Yes, I am the class teacher of Grade 8, Class 9!” Gao Dexin proudly said, “I, Gao Dexin, now have become a glorious people’s teacher!”


“A punk like you can also be a teacher? F*ck, is there something wrong?” Yang Ming asked, “When did you, kid, become a teacher?”


“I used to follow you, Brother Yang, in the underworld. Then you stopped. I didn’t feel it was meaningful anymore to do it myself. One day, I suddenly read a comic called [2], and I had the idea of being a teacher! But public schools definitely wouldn’t want me, therefore, I entered this private school.” Gao Dexin said, “I gradually found out that I am more and more suitable as a teacher now!”


“Not bad. The way you look right now does indeed look like a role model of a teacher.” Yang Ming looked at Gao Dexin and nodded.


“Brother Yang, what are you doing now?” Gao Dexin asked.


“I went to university. I am now a freshman.” Yang Ming smiled and said, “You are older than me. We are no longer living in those days anymore, too. Don’t call me Brother Yang. Call me Yang Ming.”


“How can that be? Brother Yang, you will always be my boss. If it wasn’t because of you, I would be crippled by the Black Tiger gang!” Gao Dexin sincerely said with trepidation.


“Forget it – whatever you want.” Yang Ming shook his head. “Yes, why are you looking for me?”


“I am looking for you? Brother Yang, didn’t you come to me?” Gao Dexin said as he felt surprised.


“Why would I want to look for you? I didn’t even know you were a teacher here in the first place!” Yang Ming didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. “Didn’t the old man from the mailroom call you? I am Wu Zhongjie’s brother.”


Eh? You are Wu Zhongjie’s caretaker?” Gao Dexin was shocked. He slapped his forehead and said, “Damn, this Wu Zhongjie. I was wondering how this kid was that fierce. He was beating up two other kids. It turns out that he’s Brother Yang’s younger brother!”


“You are not an outsider to me, so I don’t have to lie to you.” Yang Ming smiled and said, “In fact, I am Wu Zhongjie’s tutor!”


“Brother Yang, you still talk about me earlier. Aren’t you a teacher now, too?” Gao Dexin said, “But important matters mustn’t be mixed with other matters. Wu Zhongjie, how old is this kid now? He’s writing love letters to girls. I can’t neglect this completely. What happens if he neglects his studies?”


“Gao Dexin, you have been a teacher for only a few years now. Are you that forgetful?” Yang Ming shook his head after listening. “Do you remember why I became like that in those days?”


“Because…” Gao Dexin was stunned and suddenly understood Yang Ming’s meaning. He couldn’t help but smile. “Look at me. We also experienced those days, too. I understand, Brother Yang.”


“Sometimes banning things may not be the best solution. You wouldn’t want Wu Zhongjie to become a second me, would you?” Yang Ming sighed and said.


“If there’s such a possibility, I would really want to see Brother Yang’s demeanor in those days again!” Gao Dexin smiled, “Yes, Brother Yang, you and her…”


“No news.” Yang Ming, of course, knew who Gao Dexin was referring to. His face sunk and he shook his head.


“Sorry, Brother Yang. I have a broken mouth…” Gao Dexin scratched his head and said.


“It’s alright.” Yang Ming shook his head. “Oh yeah, I still have to go back to my lectures. If there was nothing else, I will leave first!”


“You are leaving so fast? Brother Yang, what’s your mobile phone number? Let’s go out to drink someday.” Gao Dexin said quickly.


Yang Ming gave Gao Dexin his mobile phone number. As he was about to leave, Gao Dexin suddenly asked another question, “Brother Yang, regarding Wu Zhongjie…”


“You can gauge and settle it yourself. Yes, I told Wu Zhongjie. If the class monitor needed it, he will beat him up again. He will beat him up until he doesn’t dare to badmouth anymore.” Yang Ming said a sentence and turned away.


“F*ck, that can’t be!” Gao Dexin frowned and stood at the entrance to the office. “Aren’t you asking me to encourage campus violence…”


Yang Ming couldn’t help but smile bitterly. In this world, the little punk from those years turned out to be a teacher, and he seemed to be a very strict teacher…


When he saw Gao Dexin, Yang Ming felt a little moved. He had lost contact with many brothers and friends from those years. I didn’t know when I started it, but I also lost contact with Li Dagang and Xu Peng. What are these two people doing now?


As he thought about this, Yang Ming decided to invite these friends out again during the holidays, and find a place for a gathering. Of course, including Gao Dexin whom he had just contacted.


After taking a taxi back to university, Yang Ming decided to go to Xiao Qing’s place to have a look. He still had some concerns about Song Hang’s case. Intuition told Yang Ming that Song Hang’s appearance was definitely not coincidental!


Di didi di…” The sound notification of a text message rang. Yang Ming took out the cell phone from his pocket and glanced at the number displayed on the message. He couldn’t help but freeze!


Lan Ling! It’s Lan Ling!


On the sender’s field, it was Lan Ling’s mobile phone number!
