Chapter 450: Chapter 450: Hit the Gun Head_1
Moreover, she couldn’t use up all of their savings. Money was pervasive in everyday life. A budget had to be set aside for her mother’s treatment costs, and there was also the cost of the upcoming childbirth to consider.
Oh God, she was truly in a bad way. It was as though she had a leaky roof and it just wouldn’t stop raining; she felt very unlucky indeed.
"Mommy, do you urgently need this one million yuan?" her two darlings asked with concern.
Ye Lu nodded, "Old Sir Shang once helped me get you two back from Ye Wanli’s custody. Just for that alone, we ought to repay him. We can’t let him die such an unjust death."
The siblings glanced at each other. They were also not fond of the witch Yuan Jiayin. Since Old Sir Shang had helped them, they naturally also wanted to lend a hand.
So what if it was just one million yuan? They were sure they could find a way to get it. But before they did that, they definitely couldn’t let Mommy know, or she would undoubtedly try to stop them.
...
The next day, Ye Lu returned to her university seeking her advisor.
Universal basic income research paper suddenly came to mind. The publishing had been put on hold because of her leave of absence to get married. But now, she thought, it seemed like a chance to earn some money. Successful publication would fetch her a bonus.
Upon leaving her advisor’s office, she ran into Senior Brother Chu Fei, who had always been supportive of her during lab experiments.
The two of them caught up on each other’s recent situations. When he heard she was in desperate need of money, he generously suggested, "Actually, you could seek sponsorship from the company supplying the reagents for your experiments. If your paper is successfully published and leads to substantial benefits, it’s equivalent to advertising for them. They should be willing to fund you."
Ye Lu was pleasantly surprised by the idea. Indeed, it would cause a big stir and boost the sales of these reagents. The company would be more willing to sponsor.
She hurriedly got in touch with the reagents company.
"Eh, wasn’t that Ye Lu just now? I heard she dropped out to marry into a wealthy family. Why is she back? According to the news, she’s messed with several men but couldn’t clinch an advantageous alliance, and now she’s nervy enough to return to university."
Their senior sister Yang Yang, who had always had issues with Ye Lu, was dismissive and thought Ye Lu was a whore who liked hooking and seducing men.
"Why are you so interested in other people’s private affairs? She’s just here to publish her previous paper."
"What did you say? She’s publishing that paper from last time?" Yang Yang’s eyes sparkled sharply. This woman has finally hit the nail on the head this time.
...
Ye Lu got in contact with the company. After reading her paper, the company was delighted and agreed to fund her for its publication in a professional magazine.
As long as the promotion went smoothly, they would pay her a commission according to the growth in sales.
Ye Lu was elated to hear this. Judging from their tone, the company would at least pay her in the hundreds of thousands, and there was no upper limit.
However, they also hoped she would assist in the product promotion and introductions for their reagents. Of course, Ye Lu happily agreed.
The company informed her that a famous conglomerate was currently integrating their agricultural subsidiary product production and sales, from cultivating seeds to the use of preservatives for the market. They were going to purchase a large amount of reagents.
All the companies in the industry were abuzz, desperately trying to get a piece of this business worth tens of billions each year. The FSA Company was one of them.
"If you can help us with this deal, we will pay you a handsome commission."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lu’s eyes lit up. Who would say no to money? She immediately accepted and promised to participate in their company training the next day.
The training content was not complicated, it was just some introductions about the reagents and negotiations which she wouldn’t be involved in.
