Chapter 65: Chapter 62 Spare Tire Number Three Was a Freebie
Su Huai waited for about 10 minutes, engaging in light banter with Sun Yu. When the office door was pushed open, a small head peeked in.
A large bow adorned her head and her hair was silky smooth.
Her eyes formed crescent moons, smiling without uttering a word.
“Hey! Mr. Sun, I’m here! How’s it going, Chang? How’s the preparation coming along?”
Hu Shiyu walked into the office on tiptoes, her hands clasped behind her back, full of youthful vibrancy.
She wore a short-sleeved shirt reminiscent of a JK uniform, with a considerable curve at her chest, a skirt below the knee, and white stockings on her shins.
Overall, she looked great, with the looks and the figure, and those slender white-stocking-covered legs added speed to her attack.
But Su Huai quickly lost interest.
His “father” had no reaction.
Given her good looks and figure, there were only three possible reasons for a composite score below 90.
Either the top was fake, the middle was filled, or the bottom was too busy.
Since she was just a sophomore, the first two possibilities were unlikely, so it must be…
Ergh~~~

Su Huai couldn’t determine the extent, but all he needed to know was that she wasn’t a qualified tool person. No fleece to be had, nothing else mattered.
Your little lord has a picky mouth and doesn’t eat contaminated delicacies, capiche?
Gou Huai leaned back lazily in his chair and watched them chatting enthusiastically.
Sun Yu considered Hu Shiyu quite important, taking the time to introduce her to Su Huai: “Little Hu is a sophomore this year, and she’s about to be elected as the vice president soon. She’s very methodical in her work. Su, you two should communicate more and cooperate sincerely…”
“Sure, Mr. Sun.”
Su Huai nodded and then gave Hu Shiyu a simple-hearted smile.
Sister, I’m both rustic and dull, please bear with me~~~
Compared to Su Huai’s lack of enthusiasm, Hu Shiyu was quite curious about him, blinking her large eyes and sizing him up from head to toe.
Then she spoke in a sweet voice, “Junior, you’ll have to follow your sister’s commands in the future~~~ Hehe!”
Hehe my ass!
Su Huai shuddered all over.
A pretty girl playing this card is very cute, but knowing there might be some sort of issue with her, Gou Huai immediately became wary.
The situation might not be that serious, after all. Mr. Tongzi’s standards were too high, dismissing anyone with a composite score below 90. Judging a girl by that alone was obviously biased.
How could there be so many top-tier goddesses in the world?
A composite score in the eighties was already extremely impressive, alright?
But Su Huai understood all this, yet he still couldn’t bring himself to like Hu Shiyu, no help for it.
Reincarnation plus a system, his actions weren’t lofty, but his mindset had soared to a great height.
…
After that, everyone held a brief meeting to draft a plan.
The theme was simple: the Business School Student Union would provide sour plum drink to the new students twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, at one liter per person per day, with a subsidy of five yuan per liter.
The remaining shortfall would come from each major’s class funds.
Those unwilling to order could just skip it; they would merely miss out on the subsidy.
During the entire military training period, the Student Union would spend over thirty thousand yuan and provide various kinds of support to ensure supply.
Naturally, the success would be credited to the Student Union.
At the time, Su Huai found it all a bit incredible: “Wow, our School of Management Student Union is that wealthy?”
Sun Yu replied vaguely, “It only started to pick up this year, we happened to receive some sponsorship…”
A delicate face flashed subconsciously through Su Huai’s mind.
There was a good chance that was the case…
Forget it, not important. Continue to develop!
Throughout the discussion, Hu Shiyu kept glancing at Su Huai, her excitement growing.
Easy to understand—with just an internal subsidy from the School of Management exceeding thirty thousand yuan, one could imagine how much money Su Huai could potentially make.
Normally, it would definitely exceed six figures.
Although not much in the grand scheme of the world, for a freshman, it was incredibly impressive.
Unfortunately, Su Huai didn’t mention the cost, leaving Hu Shiyu unable to grasp his bottom line.
But the less clear it was, the more curious she became…
Of course, Su Huai wasn’t clinging to those profits stubbornly.
“Mr. Sun, I can lower the price for our School of Management to ten yuan per liter. This way, the Union can subsidize a bit less, which will leave funds for various other activities in the future.”
“Great! That’s great!”
Sun Yu hadn’t brought up the price initiative, but he had been considering it, and he immediately beamed with joy upon hearing that.
“Considerate of your fellow students and not after minor profits, it seems you’ve truly stepped into the roles of both the Student Union and the administrative office…”
Su Huai smiled and did not continue the topic.
The School of Management is his stronghold, and he certainly knew how to maintain it.
Moreover, there are only a few hundred new students in the School of Management, right?
It wouldn’t result in a significant loss, not worth mentioning.
Sun Yu didn’t take advantage of the students for nothing, he immediately reciprocated with a peach for a plum, offering a reward.
“I guess it’s not that easy for you to continue expanding production, is it?
Coincidentally, the Cafeteria 2 was originally a large, school-run canteen that was later converted to specialty counters, leaving more than half of the central kitchen empty.
I’ll help coordinate for you to temporarily use it for a few days, ensuring you have enough space to increase production.”
What a deal!
This was solving a major issue!
Li Chengguo’s place had limited space—it was fine for small-scale operations, but it definitely couldn’t scale up.
Su Huai had planned to rent two more counters, but it was very troublesome, and the cost would be very high, a last resort.
Now, things fell perfectly into place all at once.
With this arrangement, Li Chengguo’s site could gradually transition to retail, and all the bulk, bucket-portioned orders could be moved to Cafeteria 2.
Goods could be moved in and out through the back door, which was closer to the sports field, making transport more convenient, and it wouldn’t affect students’ meals either.
“Okay, Mr. Sun, I appreciate the trouble you’re going to.”
Su Huai was overjoyed but didn’t bring up the matter of fees at all.
It wasn’t until the meeting ended and Sun Yu took him towards Cafeteria 2 that he asked, “Mr. Sun, about the rent, how should we handle that?”
Sun Yu glanced at Su Huai with a smile, “That’s a borrowing, where is the question of rent coming from?”
“Isn’t that inappropriate?”
Su Huai appeared concerned on his behalf, “It’s not an internal canteen for our School of Management, you shouldn’t end up owing favors because of this, should you?”
“Don’t worry about that. Just focus on doing your job well.”
Sun Yu waved it off, unwilling to dwell on it.
So Su Huai instantly knew the score—Zhang Yaowen’s favor was worth more than he had anticipated, and the corresponding price had already been paid by him.
What a benefactor…
Su Huai stored his gratitude in his heart and focused on the tasks at hand.
With Sun Yu involved, communication went smoothly and the logistics manager lent out a corner with no fuss.
Six stoves, use any pot you like, just cover your gas, water, and electricity costs.
Upon a simple cost analysis, a big 600-liter pot didn’t even cost 30 yuan…
It’s always easier to get things done when you have connections—it has been the case throughout history, everywhere in the world.
Now, the biggest problem was actually a shortage of kitchen staff—it was absurd.
“How do you plan to solve the staffing issue?”
As soon as Sun Yu asked, Su Huai immediately knew what to do.
“It’s not a complicated job. We can just recruit a few work-study students in need from within our school. It’s best if they have experience as kitchen assistants, but it’s not a deal-breaker. Mr. Sun, will you assist to the very end?”
Sun Yu was accustomed to Su Huai’s exceedingly understanding ways and smiled with satisfaction, “Such a good cause is worth supporting. What do you plan to pay them?”
Su Huai silently calculated for a moment before offering a generous rate.
“About 6 people should be enough, 4 guys and 2 girls. 20 yuan per hour for the guys, 15 for the girls, what do you think?”
In the school’s current work-study positions, the hourly wage is about 8 yuan, sometimes even less.
With a workload of 100 hours per month, the monthly salary is basically around 800 yuan.
Su Huai wasn’t stingy at all; he offered very good terms that wouldn’t affect the school’s subsidized positions.
Sun Yu was even more pleased but still suggested an improvement.
“I think, 8 guys and 4 girls would be better, to ensure the students have time for their studies. Everyone works four hours per day, so it doesn’t delay your work and can help more students.”
In the School of Management, seniors weren’t on campus and freshmen were in military training, so students in need were mostly sophomores and juniors.
Having 6 people earn 3000 yuan for living expenses in half a month seemed rather excessive.
Having 12 people earn over 1000 yuan for living expenses in half a month was just right—it solved the problem without provoking complaints.
“Your thinking is indeed more mature than mine, let’s go with that.”
Su Huai nodded in agreement with a smile and added, “Since there’s a shift change at noon, I’ll also provide a meal, ensuring there’s enough plum juice to go around as a little gesture of goodwill.”
“You, oh you!”
Sun Yu pointed at Su Huai, bursting into laughter, utterly content.
With the ability to get things done coupled with flattery, all would love such a newcomer.
Give me ten Su’s, and what worry could there be for the School of Management not to prosper?
Alas, there’s only one, and he’s Zhang’s treasure. It seems I’ll have to make good use of him in the future, can’t let him idle away…
Filled with thoughts of extracting every bit of usefulness, Sun Yu left, and Su Huai, parted from him, harbored his own schemes—preparing to squeeze Chen Nuanhan dry, to boost everyone’s spirits.
With everything in place, the first batch of sour plum soup for the military training period began cooking!
