Chapter 226: Chapter 227: Booming Business

Li Yang didn’t finish answering everyone’s questions until the afternoon.

After receiving satisfactory answers, the women finally quieted down.

"Rongrong, how do we sign up for a membership card here?" a woman finally asked Zhang Rong, snapping to attention.

Zhang Rong said with a beaming smile, "What kind of card are you interested in? The Black Gold Card has an annual fee of 36,800. It includes a physical check-up with Divine Doctor Li every six months and a complimentary monthly massage session tailored to any discomfort you’re experiencing. You also get a 20% discount on any medicine you buy in our store!"

"The Gold Card is 26,600. It comes with one consultation and check-up with Divine Doctor Li, a complimentary massage session every two months, and a 10% discount on purchases."

"The Regular Card is 16,600, with one complimentary massage per quarter and a 5% discount on purchases!"

...

’Even I think that’s expensive,’ Li Yang thought.

"Sign me up for one!" But these were all wealthy women. They didn’t even bat an eye after hearing the prices. "I want the Black Gold Card. Oh, and sign my husband up for one too!"

"I want one too!"

"Me too!"

...

In an instant, nearly every woman in the room had signed up.

Not a single one held back.

Li Yang was amazed by the sight.

’When it comes to fleecing people, Aunt Rong is way more talented than I am,’ he thought.

’Then again, I can’t really call it fleecing,’ he corrected himself. ’My medical skills are the real deal.’

Evening came, and it was time to close up shop.

Zhang Li and the other employees were cleaning the shop, while Li Yang and Aunt Rong tallied up the day’s earnings.

"We sold eight Black Gold Cards, twelve Gold Cards, and eighteen Regular Cards... for a total of... nine hundred twelve thousand, four hundred."

Aunt Rong’s slender fingers flew across the calculator keys.

Over nine hundred thousand!

Li Yang was dumbfounded.

"We also sold eighteen pills today, for an income of one hundred sixty-seven thousand, five hundred."

The total revenue was over a million!

Li Yang was completely stunned.

Even Zhang Rong was a little surprised.

She was no stranger to large sums of money, but earning this much in a single day was still beyond her expectations.

"Not bad at all!" Zhang Rong picked up the calculator and said with a grin, "Looks like you’re quite popular around here. I hadn’t noticed before."

Li Yang laughed, a little smug. "But of course! I’m definitely popular. Aunt Rong, we’ve hit the jackpot!"

Zhang Rong was all smiles. ’You little money-grubber,’ she thought.

"Oh, right. I need to go back and prepare more medicine," Li Yang said. "You should focus on developing our client base. With a start this good, we’re bound to blow up."

"Don’t you worry!" Zhang Rong said with a confident smile. "We’re taking the high-end route, so reputation is everything. As long as we build a good word-of-mouth, we’ll definitely take off. You can count on it."

"Right, everyone’s been working hard all day. Sister Li, come on, I’ll take you all out for a late-night snack."

Li Yang called out.

Zhang Li and the others were indeed tired, so they quickly smiled and agreed.

"Aunt Rong, you don’t have to rush back to keep Sister Su company, do you? Come on, let’s all go grab a late-night snack."

Zhang Rong shot him a sideways glance. "Fine. Let’s go."

The group locked up the shop and went out for a late-night snack.

He brought the six beautiful women to a street food stall.

Zhang Li and the others were happily discussing the new shop’s performance on its first day. Everyone was thrilled.

Zhang Rong sat down. With her naturally elegant air, she seemed a bit out of place in these surroundings.

"Here, order whatever you like!" Li Yang said, holding out the menus. "Don’t be shy. Order anything you want—it’s my treat."

"Look at you, getting all smug," Zhang Rong said, rolling her eyes at him. She then turned to the others. "Lili, don’t hold back on his account. Eat up."

"Okay!"

...

Aside from Zhang Rong, Zhang Li and the other women were all around twenty-three or twenty-four. Girls that age are full of energy, and the table soon filled with their chattering and laughter.

Of course, that’s just how street food stalls are.

Besides, they were all beautiful, so they quickly attracted the attention of the other tables.

"Hey, beautiful..." A slightly drunk young man from another table stood up. "Come on over! You only have one guy there, that’s not enough. Come drink with us! We’ve got plenty of guys over here!"

Zhang Rong frowned.

Zhang Li and the other women grew a little scared.

This was exactly the kind of trouble you’d expect from young punks in a place like this.

For one, there were a lot of them. For another, with a few beers in their bellies, these guys started to think they were hot stuff, bragging loud enough to shake the sky. On top of that, when women were around, saving face became more important than anything else, making them prone to impulsive actions.

Li Yang raised an eyebrow.

He stood up, moved to intercept the approaching man, and blocked his path. "Buddy, you’re drunk. Go sleep it off."

"What the fuck is it to you!" The man completely disregarded Li Yang. "Get the hell out of my way." 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

The other men behind him roared with laughter.

"See this? All these brothers I have behind me..." The man jabbed a finger at Li Yang’s chest. "Now fuck off. I’m gonna go have a little chat with those pretty ladies."

Li Yang sighed. ’This motherfucker is nuts,’ he thought.

"Go on back," Li Yang said, refusing to yield and pushing the man backward slightly. "Do me a favor and just go back to your table."
