30: Chapter 30 Makes a fortune

Zhao Yang had proposed this price change himself.

After all, when running a Taobao Online Store, it was acceptable to sell surplus stock in the beginning for the sake of profit, as it was a period of wild growth.

However, it eventually had to move toward professionalization, and one couldn't rely on surplus stock forever.

There definitely needed to be a dedicated supply source.

Not to mention, Zhao Yang also planned to create clothing with unique styles later on to build a brand.

That's right!

This era was the best time to build a brand; everything was growing wildly, all the rules were still in the process of being formed, and nothing had settled yet.

In fact, if Zhao Yang really wanted to become a business tycoon, he could actually open his own Garment Factory.

That way, the lifeline would be in his own hands, and building a brand would allow for better quality control, which was actually safer as well.

But there was no way around it; Zhao Yang didn't have the time.

He had more of his own things to do.

It was impossible to devote himself entirely to business.

Damn it, would earning ten billion make his brain develop a second time?

It wouldn't!

Then wasn't this money just a number?

Zhao Yang was making money now just so he wouldn't have to worry about money in the future.

After all, conducting research was quite expensive, especially the initial research investment; if one day Zhao Yang found a research direction he was interested in and couldn't secure investment, he would need to fund it himself.

He shouldn't have to put in extra effort just for the sake of money.

If it really came to that, it would be too embarrassing.

After all, he was a reborn person.

As someone who was reborn, he could lack anything, but he absolutely could not lack money!

This was Zhao Yang's own philosophy.

Zhao Yang did a rough calculation; if he followed his current income, by October 28th...

He should have at least one million, right?

It might even reach around 2.6 million; of course, this was just a rough estimate, and he still had to consider the market, peak and off-peak seasons, and so on.

But no matter how he calculated it, the money Zhao Yang could personally take home would definitely exceed two million!

One had to remember that from the time he started e-commerce at the end of June to October 28th...

It had only been four months in total!

Four months!

Making two million in a flash!

Although there was the benefit of his rebirth involved, this speed of earning money was still a bit too fast.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yang felt a slight sense of emotion.

In the web novels he had read in his past life, why did so few authors write about running an online store?

In the years 2008 and 2009, it was just too easy to start an online store!

Especially with the knowledge and operations from his past life, it could be said that compared to the online stores of the present, it was a true dimensional strike.

They didn't even know that traffic could be played like this!

However, upon reflection, it was actually quite reasonable; people who hadn't come into contact with e-commerce or run an online store didn't really know much about the E-commerce Platform or online stores.

It was normal that they wouldn't think about it, and to be honest, those who hadn't run an online store in their past life wouldn't be any better than the current E-commerce Platform merchants if they opened a store now.

Of course, one could still make money.

At this time, as long as it was a legitimate e-commerce business, it could basically make money; it was just a question of how much.

It wasn't like seven or eight years later, with all those operations like burning money on direct train advertisements, fighting for keywords, paying people to fake orders, and all sorts of messy tactics.

At that time, there were many E-commerce Platform Users, but there were also many merchants; in order to fight for customers, all the merchants started fighting tooth and nail.

It was truly cutthroat back then; burning thousands of dollars in a minute or two was like a game, and it wasn't something everyone could handle.

And it wasn't until ten years later...

The E-commerce Platform began to decline rapidly; by then, the era of making money by opening a store was completely over, and capital began to burn money like crazy.

Some thoughts from the future flashed through his mind.

Zhao Yang sighed softly.

Money was definitely easier to make at this time!

By that time, if he had savings of around three million, it would be a very good start.

Zhao Yang wasn't confident about doubling this amount to thirty million within this year, but with a few casual operations, fifteen million or more shouldn't be too difficult.

The more money one had, the easier it was to make money.

After upgrading Linguistics to Lv2 and finishing reading the books on Latin and Russian, Zhao Yang turned his attention back to Chemistry and Biology books.

He would upgrade both of these subjects to Lv2 first!

Anyway, the current system task was to read books worth a value of 1,000.

It didn't specify which subjects the books had to be, so Zhao Yang naturally chose to maximize his benefits, selecting the optimal solution within the same amount of time.

Under such a plan, time passed very quickly.

Another half a month passed.

During this time, Zhao Yang was mainly focused on Biology; after all, his university major was Biological Sciences, so he would upgrade this subject to Lv2 first.

The others could be supplemented slowly; he still needed to get a head start on his professional courses.

It would be best if, shortly after entering university, he could be spotted by some impressive professor and taken into their research group; that would be perfect!

Having experienced his postgraduate life in his past life, Zhao Yang understood very well that when it came to research, earlier was better than later.

If he could get into a research group early, it was best to do so; if one step was fast, every step would be fast!

Even if he was just listed as the third or fourth author on a research group paper, it was definitely better than just slowly attending classes in university.

Furthermore, after entering a research group, as long as one had the ability, they would generally stand out very quickly!

Perhaps in just a year or two, he would be able to produce a first-author paper.

It was hard to say about Q1 SCI papers, but for Q2 SCI papers, the difficulty really wasn't too high!

Just as Zhao Yang was working through university Biology questions...

His admission letter arrived!

After receiving the admission letter, Father Zhao and Mother Zhao were naturally very happy.

They had originally thought that Zhao Yang's performance in this College Entrance Examination was a failure, but they didn't expect a turn for the better; although it still couldn't compare to the good schools he could have gotten into with his original grades, at least it was a 211!

And it was a 211 in the capital, which was already quite good!

In the future, he could take the exam for a 985, or simply apply directly for postgraduate studies at Peking University or Huaqing University; that didn't seem to affect anything at all!

It could be said to be a stroke of luck in misfortune!

To celebrate this good fortune, Father Zhao and Mother Zhao insisted on holding a graduation banquet.

They also wanted to invite teachers and classmates.

This made Zhao Yang frown.

To be honest, he didn't have much affection for those classmates in his class, so asking him to invite them was really...

But this was Father Zhao and Mother Zhao's request.

There was no helping it; Zhao Yang directly created an invitation and posted it in the class group.

Then he sent a sentence.

"Let me know if you are coming."

After counting, nearly twenty classmates from his class, including the homeroom teacher, were coming, and among them was Song Xi!

When he saw Song Xi's name, Zhao Yang frowned subconsciously.

However, he didn't say she couldn't come; he would just treat her as an ordinary classmate.
