Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Spokesperson
Su Rui felt a bit embarrassed, she hadn't expected to meet Tong Ming under these circumstances.
"You're laughing at me, now I..."
Tong Ming waved his hand, "Isn't it just terminating the contract with the agency? Ya Ya already told me about it. As it happens, my company has just been established and we're lacking an endorsement figure. Why don't you come and help out?"
Surprised by the offer, Su Rui said, "Uncle Tong, I've already planned with Xiaowei to start an animation studio..."
"But you'll also need start-up capital, won't you!" Tong Ming took out a business card, "Go find this person, let him help you register the studio."
Su Rui immediately understood Tong Ming's intention.
He wanted her and Tang Xiaowei to establish the studio first, then represent it as endorsers.
In doing so, not only would they have the start-up capital for the studio, but they might also make a comeback through this endorsement opportunity. source-at-MVLeMpYr
"Uncle Tong, how could I accept this? Actually, I..."
"There's nothing to be shy about! I am friends with your parents, it's just that they wouldn't take my advice and always wanted to cling to the Zhao Family, as if there were no other choices in the entertainment industry besides the Zhao Family."
After giving a few more instructions, Tong Ming turned and left, but before he did, he urged Chen Yu to hurry up and get the marriage certificate.
It wasn't until this moment that Tong Ya came down from the second floor.
It was unclear whether she had been deliberately avoiding Tong Ming or was genuinely busy upstairs.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon; they were too late for the Civil Affairs Bureau.
However, Tong Ya still carefully put away the two household registration booklets.
The business had been booming in the past two days, and the name Yuya Bansheng Park had appeared in various media reports across Suzhou City.
They also monopolized the delivery orders within a ten-kilometer radius.
By about 7:30 p.m., the shop's marinated dishes were sold out, and they had to hang up the closed sign.
Ning Kai and Li Gang also went ahead to cook, and everyone started to tidy up the shop.
[Congratulations to the host for completing a day's business. Today's net profit is 790,600 yuan, with 790,600 points awarded. The current total accumulated points are 42,983,80 points.]
After deducting the cost of purchasing ingredients for marinated dishes for the next day, Chen Yu still had 1,210,600 yuan in hand.
After transferring 1.21 million yuan to his current account, Chen Yu was left with 5,000 yuan for emergency use.
Based on the current turnover, Chen Yu would be able to discuss the sale of the shop with Aunt Li by the end of the week.
After storing the delivered marinated dish ingredients in the cold storage, Chen Yu let everyone go home early.
The girls were incredibly diligent. Chen Yu had already prepared a rest schedule for them, but none of them took a break.
He took this opportunity to give them a short break.
Afterward, Chen Yu changed into sportswear and went out for a run with Tong Ya.
Originally, he didn't want to come out, after all, being surrounded by old men and women and treated like a doctor was indeed a bit depressing.
But today, a word from Tong Ming awakened Chen Yu.
With the system's assistance, it wouldn't take long for him to accumulate substantial wealth.
But with wealth, he needed to think about how to give back to the world.
Indeed, he only knew some biology and chemistry and could barely treat minor ailments.
Even so, he had to help the neighbors as much as possible.
Moreover, Chen Yu had already made up his mind. With the knowledge in his head, it shouldn't be difficult to study for a medical practitioner license.
Sure enough, as soon as he and Tong Ya arrived at the park, they were surrounded by the elders.
Their questions were mostly about whether the medicinal meals they asked about before could be made.
Chen Yu didn't say much, just took out a list he had prepared in advance and told the people on the list to come for the medicine the next day.
As for the rest, Chen Yu uniformly responded that he had not figured them out.
After all, everyone's condition is different, and he was not a medical professional.
Even with extraordinary intelligence, it was impossible to come up with so many medical dishes in one day.
Having escaped the group of elderly men and women, Chen Yu took a deep breath.
"Honey, I've found another one of your strengths!"
Chen Yu turned his head to look at Tong Ya, "What strength?"
"Kindness! You could have completely refused those elders, given that you're so busy every day."
Chen Yu shrugged his shoulders, "Your father told me to contribute to society within my capabilities, and I guess this counts!"
Tong Ya pouted, "Why listen to him? His own life is a mess."
Chen Yu didn't say anything more, just smiled.
At five o'clock the next morning, Chen Yu briefly checked the kitchen before driving out.
While reviewing the medical records yesterday, he noticed that many of the elders had very similar health issues.
To cure their ailments, a particular medicinal herb was needed, the bitter grandma ding!
This herb was fairly common in the past, but it's hard to find in modern cities.
To find a large amount of bitter grandma ding, he had to go to the fields in the outskirts.
Taking advantage of the darkness before dawn, Chen Yu drove straight to the countryside.
It wasn't until ten in the morning that Chen Yu returned to the city.
After picking up some groceries at the farmers' market, he went back to the store.
At that moment, Tong Ya was sitting at the entrance of the store, holding the box prepared the day before, looking anxiously down the road.
In that box were the household registration books of both families.
When she saw Chen Yu's car park, she ran over in a huff.
"Where did you run off to so early in the morning? I even got dressed up to go with you to get our marriage certificate."
Chen Yu had intended to come back early to obtain the marriage certificate with Tong Ya.
But the trip took too long as the distance was simply too far.
"Ya Ya, be good, I'm going to change clothes now, just wait here for three minutes."
With that, Chen Yu hurried into the store and called two servers out to move the groceries from the car.
In less than three minutes, Chen Yu had washed up, changed into a new set of clothes, and rushed back down.
Tong Ya was stunned; it took her at least half an hour to change clothes and get ready.
But Chen Yu, it was as if he became a different person after just a quick trip upstairs.
"What's the matter, Ya Ya? Why the daze? Let's get going."
Chen Yu flicked Tong Ya's forehead lightly and immediately took her to her car.
His car had been running all morning and had run out of battery.
They had to take Tong Ya's car.
Before long, the couple arrived at the relevant local office.
Today was Wednesday, and there weren't many people coming to get marriage certificates.
As soon as they entered, they sat down at the counter and started filling out the forms.
The staff member attending to them looked at their information and was somewhat taken aback.
"Do both parties know about each other's situation?"
This question was actually directed at Tong Ya, essentially asking her if she knew that Chen Yu had been married before.
