Chapter 29
Friends said Yu Le seems to have a good business sense, as he was actually able to sell things to the group as a customer.
One profit after another, he now already has "550" yuan.
"I declare this Yu Le to be the best businessman baby."
They played a game for over an hour.
When it was announced over,
Ning Fubao and He Lingfeng had the highest scores.
Friends who watched the whole process said: "Oh my, the teachers didn't help them at all, yet they managed to come up with the idea of food delivery on their own, so clever."
For the 1st place, Shen Wei rewarded each of them with a small red flower.
Then she took them to the points room to have a look – 30 small red flowers can be exchanged for a Lego toy. 60 small red flowers for an air fryer. 100 small red flowers for a kitchen game set, the original worth 9,800 yuan.
The other babies in the kindergarten looked at Ning Fubao and He Lingfeng's small red flowers with envious eyes.
People online said: "What a pity Yu Le didn't get any small red flowers, he really stood out."
"When is the next game? I feel like the kids have become so skilled after not knowing anything at the beginning. I really look forward to their next one, go for it Yu Le! I believe you're the best."
Some parents also said: "The gifts they give here are so substantial, unlike other kindergartens that only give cheap stuff like notebooks and skipping ropes!"
"Calculated this way, attending this kindergarten not only doesn't cost anything but can actually make money."
Upon hearing this, everyone reacted. Shen Wei must be a celestial being?
This kindergarten is amazing.
Netizens loved it immensely: "Isn't this better than variety shows?"
What's more, the small red flower that He Lingfeng got was directly given to Ning Fubao.
"Although I know I shouldn't ship little friends, this pair is just too shippable."
"They display CEO vibes at such a young age."
"Those are small red flowers, you can't even touch my brother's."
"All kinds of rewards from home can't compare to a single small red flower from school, you have to know how important it is to these babies."
"Why is it over?"
The teachers had fun, the students had fun, but the netizens didn't have enough fun yet.
This game was so much fun, the babies acted so adorably.
Soon this live broadcast ended, but there was a replay.
The number of people watching the replay soared, and before long it exceeded 5 million.
Starry Sky Kindergarten became a huge hit!
Many people wanted to enroll at Starry Sky Kindergarten.
But whether it was phone inquiries, showing up at the school gate, or trying to add Teacher Tang's WeChat through connections,
the result was the same – they weren't accepting new students at the moment.
Even some parents were willing to pay tens of thousands of yuan, but this kindergarten didn't take the money.
Everyone became disheartened.
They would rather this kindergarten took money, at least then there would be a chance for their child to get in.
The enthusiasm of netizens was too high.
There were over 100,000 comments, many locals urging them to open new classes. Even people from other cities wanted them to open branches.
These days when Teacher Tang and Liu Chef walked on the street, there were actually people who recognized them, showing how popular their live broadcast had become.
Passersby would greet them,
even using classic quotes from the broadcast: "But he called me Grandpa Liu" to Liu Chef.
Liu Chef found it both funny and awkward.
Many old friends also called.
Now the phone kept ringing, and Liu Chef didn't feel like answering.
When he did pick up, it was indeed an old friend: "Hey, I saw you, you were on the live broadcast, not bad, doing pretty well."
Then the friend added: "Nowadays, even precious things need more promotion, right?"
Liu Chef said: "Yeah, how have you been lately?"
"Same old, but there is one thing. Can you get me a spot in your kindergarten? If it wasn't for being sworn brothers, I wouldn't dare ask you for this favor!"
After the friend said that, it was hard for Liu Chef to refuse.
But Liu Chef said: "I can't do that. There are so many people offering tens of thousands, but still can't get in. Let me tell you if they open new classes in the future."
Hearing that, the friend knew there was no way, so he could only sigh and say: "Alright then!"
After hanging up, Liu Chef's wife immediately came over: "Another one asking you to pull strings?"
Liu Chef said: "Yeah, more calls like that than when it was the New Year holiday period."
Liu Chef's wife said: "Didn't your little boss say before? Each person has two spots. You can't easily give your spots away, save them for our granddaughter!"
Liu Chef knew the principle of charity begins at home.
"Of course." No need to say more, his granddaughter was only three this year, still a year and a half away from kindergarten age.
Liu Chef's daughter-in-law also watched the live broadcast all day and couldn't get enough of it.
Liu Chef said: "There will be another live broadcast tomorrow."
His wife told Liu Chef: "This was really the right move, I heard Jiangbei Grand Restaurant has officially started layoffs. Many people who left can't even find a job."
Not to mention the high salary here, every day you get to see happy children.
When Liu Chef thought about it, he smiled.
Soon the phone rang again, he thought it was someone trying to get into the kindergarten. But when he saw the caller ID, his face darkened.
He didn't even look and just rejected it.
His wife asked: "Who was it?"
"Liu Ming", who else, his former apprentice, that ungrateful snake from back then.
It was because of this apprentice's scheming that the whole incident was exposed, forcing Liu Chef to leave Jiangbei Grand Restaurant where he had worked for decades.
Even with Liu Chef's good temper, he couldn't help but hold a grudge.
Seeing this person's call made him annoyed. He had just hung up when Liu Ming stubbornly called again.
His wife said: "Maybe he has something important, why don't you answer and hear him out?"
Persuaded by his wife, Liu Chef answered, but didn't say anything on his end.
Liu Ming said: "Master, how have you been lately?"
Liu Chef said curtly: "If you have something to say, say it!"
His icy attitude made Liu Ming's face pale, then he said "Master, I was really wrong."
"I just spoke carelessly, I didn't expect them to spread rumors!"
"After you left, I was restless and couldn't sleep for days. I also didn't apologize in time, but I couldn't bear the guilt, can you forgive me?"
Liu Chef said: "What's done is done, what's the point of saying all this!" His attitude remained cold.
Liu Ming gritted his teeth and said: "Master, I got laid off. Can I come work at your kindergarten?" This was his real intention.
Liu Chef scoffed inwardly, he had been waiting for this all along. This person had no good intentions.
"We don't need more people!"
Once bitten, twice shy. He wouldn't fall into the same trap twice.
This apprentice liked to take advantage of others. In the past, because of their master-apprentice relationship and Liu Ming's poor family situation, Liu Chef had always let it slide.
But now their ties were severed, no one would show him that leniency anymore.
He regrets it now, but it's too late.
In life, you can't let your path become too narrow.
After hanging up, Liu Chef felt totally relieved. Who could have imagined that leaving back then was actually the right move.
...
On the 2nd day of work, Teacher Tang took the initiative to approach Shen Wei during the morning meeting and said, "I have a favor to ask of you!"
Teacher Tang has always been a central figure at the kindergarten, and all the children adored her.
Moreover, Teacher Tang had an upright reputation, so Shen Wei couldn't imagine what matter would compel Teacher Tang to use the word "request."
"Tell me," Shen Wei said.
Teacher Tang explained, "Yesterday, one of my former teachers wanted to enroll his granddaughter at our school."
This place has become so popular that all the children have appeared on the live broadcast, so if a new person were to join, it would undoubtedly draw attention.
It would cause trouble for the kindergarten.
Others would think, "If she can enroll, why can't I?"
During this sensitive period, such requests should not be made.
However, this person is exceptional. When Teacher Tang was a student, it was this very teacher who sponsored her education.
Over the years, Teacher Tang has shown filial piety to her mentor during all major festivals and celebrations.
This time, when her mentor made this request, she truly could not refuse, so she turned to Shen Wei for help.
Shen Wei said, "Doesn't each of you have two enrollment slots?" In an instant, everyone's heart was stirred.
The bus driver, Zhang Daming, couldn't help but say, "Can we resell our enrollment slots to others?"
As soon as he said it, he felt ashamed. The kindergarten had always treated him well.
Moreover, they had just given him a bonus of 100,000 yuan, so saying this now made him seem insatiably greedy.
Usually, Zhang Daming was quite simple and honest, but at the moment, the burden of high-interest loans was suffocating him.
He had heard that many people were offering only 30,000 or 50,000 yuan, which this place wouldn't accept. Then he heard that he had an enrollment slot, and he temporarily lost his senses.
After saying that, Zhang Daming immediately turned around and tried to rectify it, his face flushed red, "Just pretend I didn't say anything!"
