286 Su Ji’s New Business
Then, he received a few messages. A bunch of information about different women were sent over.
Pei Huai opened them one by one, his thin lips slightly pursed.
With just a glance, he knew that his girlfriend would not like any of those women.
[Pei Huai: “Continue looking.” ]
When he found her, he would give her the pair small lion statues that had been sealed away.

When Xu Ni entered Su Ji’s room, she invited him to get on the bed.
She also asked him to fill the teapot with water, get some food, wash them, and put them on the small table.
When that was done, Xu Ni seemed to have realized something and asked in annoyance, “you asked me to come here just to order me around?”
“No, I really have something to ask you,” Su Ji smiled and took a bite of a java apple.
It was really crunchy.
Xu Ni felt that she was setting a trap for him, so he was quite vigilant, “tell me then.”
“How many years have you been smoking?” Su Ji asked.
“Four or five years,” Xu Ni replied.
Su Ji glanced at him. He was not that old.
“What’s so surprising? Many around me all started smoking at the same age as me.”
Su Ji nodded, “a seasoned smoker.”
Xu Ni replied, “not really. I know others who need more than one packet a day.”
Su Ji seemed to be quite satisfied with this number.
She took another bite of the java apple and reached into her pocket with her other hand. “Why did you smoke in the first place? Because you don’t want to live anymore?”
“???
“Who would choose to kill themselves by smoking? It’s too slow! There must be something troubling you, right?”
Xu Ni didn’t know whether he was angry or tempted, but he also took a java apple and took a bite.
Su Ji pointed to another java apple with her chin, “the one you took isn’t sweet. The one beside is.”
Xu Ni took the one she was pointing at and took a bite. The juice flowed out, and his eyes widened.
It was really sweet!
Su Ji smiled at his expression. He seemed like a child who had been raised in the city and had not seen much of the world. She continued to talk about serious business, “aren’t you worried that smoking is bad for your health?”
Xu Ni replied, “I’ll definitely be worried when I cough or feel pain in my lungs…”
“And also when I let my thoughts run wild in the middle of the night.”
Su Ji said, “if there are substitute cigarettes that are not bad for the body, but are a little more expensive. Would you buy them?”
“Of course,” Xu Ni replied and frowned, “you mean those electronic cigarettes? Those are not real cigarettes, it’s different when you smoke it. It’s pointless.”
Su Ji had never heard of e-cigarettes before. She immediately took out something from her pocket and slammed it on the table.
“Try this. Does it look like the one you usually smoke?”
Xu Ni looked down at the table. It was a white cigarette.
It was handmade, but it was very delicate. He picked it up with a suspicious look and sniffed it. Anyway, for a smoker like him who had been smoking for four or five years, he could identify the smell of cigarette smoke and sense a little sweetness…was it strawberry-mint flavored?
He took it in his mouth. Before he lit it, he asked Su Ji, “is this a contraband item?”
Although he was rebellious, he was law-abiding.
Su Ji replied, “don’t worry. It’s legal.”
Xu Ni lit the cigarette doubtfully and tasted it. “Isn’t this a strawberry-mint-flavored cigarette?”
Su Ji smiled mysteriously before she revealed the secret behind it. “I mixed a total of 101 herbs that are beneficial to the body in this. There is no trace of tobacco at all. Not only is it not harmful to the body, but it is also therapeutic.”
Hearing that, Xu Ni’s expression changed.
He was so shocked that he couldn’t speak at all!
He took another puff, “are you sure this isn’t a cigarette?”
Su Ji’s gaze was firm, “no.”
Xu Ni rubbed his legs with excitement. “Interesting!”
He didn’t expect that she knew how to invent strange things besides having medical skills.
Xu Ni was starting to like her.
However, when Su Ji said the next sentence, his smile disappeared.
Su Ji said, “50,000 yuan a box, with 10 sticks inside.”
Xu Ni coughed.
He directly snuffed out the cigarette with his finger. “I’m good. I’ll just smoke the cancer-causing substances.”
“Don’t be in a hurry to reject me,” Su Ji put the cigarette back into his mouth and lit it for him. “I’m here to talk business with you. Not only do you not have to spend money, but you might even earn some.”
A flame ignited. Xu Ni couldn’t help but take another puff.
Boss Su had a new idea for business.
She couldn’t sell her herbs in winter. In the first half of the month, she felt quite relaxed without anything to do, but now she couldn’t sit still.
She sat cross-legged in front of Xu Ni, “you often go to nightclubs and have a lot of bad friends. Help me recommend them to your friends and I’ll let you have them for free. We’ll split the money from selling the cigarettes 9 to 1.”
No wonder she was asking if his friends smoked. This woman was quite smart. Xu Ni understood and asked directly, “I’ll take 1?”
Su Ji nodded, “I’ll take 99 and you’ll take 1.”
Xu Ni thought she was being too harsh, “99? What do you mean by that?”
Su Ji replied, “I’ll take 99% of the revenue and you get 1%.”
“F * ck! I won’t do it!”
Su Ji didn’t give in, “I need to bear the costs, but you’re making a profit.”
Xu Ni narrowed his eyes.
However, after careful calculation, one percent of 50,000 yuan was 500 yuan.
Although he didn’t lack the money, it would save him a lot of money if he could smoke them for free. So he reluctantly agreed, “alright…I’ll try it… I don’t know if I can sell them, and everyone might want to try it at first, but if they go back to normal cigarettes, then…”
Su Ji replied, “don’t worry. After smoking mine, you won’t want to smoke anything else.”
She was very confident in this, but she didn’t have the time to promote it and lacked a middleman, but Xu Ni was smart.
After Xu Ni finished smoking, he picked up the remaining java apple on the fruit plate and took a bite while thinking. The next second, he felt an intense sourness in his mouth.
It was raw!
However, why did Su Ji’s words sound more and more suspicious?
Moreover, Su Ji’s method of taking her business to nightclubs…He had definitely seen it on the law channel before!
He looked at Su Ji, and Su Ji seemed to be able to read his mind. She gave him a look that said, “don’t worry, I learnt it from the big boss.”
Su Ji put her hand on his shoulder, as if they were working together, “this can help you quit smoking. It’s good for your health, so it’s a good thing.”
Xu Ni sighed. He still felt that he had been tricked. However, at this point, he would give some more constructive advice. “I suggest you add a few more flavors. I have more male friends, and they don’t usually like strawberry flavor.”
Su Ji smiled again, “don’t worry, I have a few flavors. I specifically got you the strawberry-flavored ones…”
“I thought you’d like it,” she said mysteriously.
Xu Ni’s face turned red as if his thoughts were completely exposed, “why would I like such a feminine flavor?”
His favorite food was strawberries, and the small towels he secretly used at home also had strawberry patterns on them.
The two of them were chattering on the bed, and a sneaky figure was hiding under the wall not far from their room.
