[SHOUTOUT TO Husky & Sedeho FOR JOINING OUR PATREON]

"It's getting late, I have other matters to attend to, so let's head back. See you tomorrow," Yi Feng bid farewell to Han Ping'an.

"Take care, boss," Han Ping'an bowed respectfully.

Yi Feng smiled and said, "Don't call me boss. Just like Wang Tie, call me Brother Feng."

"Yes, Brother Feng!" Han Ping'an nodded emphatically.

"Then we'll be off. See you tomorrow."

"Little Nannan, see you tomorrow," Yi Feng waved at Han Nannan.

"Bye-bye, Brother Feng~" Little Nannan, munching on soft candy, mumbled unclearly.

Han Ping'an, holding his sister's hand, watched as Yi Feng and Wang Tie left.

"Brother, Brother Feng is a good person," Han Nannan said earnestly.

Brother Feng, I will always remember today's kindness and will surely repay it with utmost sincerity in the future.

He silently made a firm resolution.

…

Yi Feng and Wang Tie went back to their shop to get a bicycle and headed to Zhao Xingye's computer store.

As soon as Yi Feng parked at the entrance, Zhao Xingye, with keen eyes, saw him and came out to welcome him.

"Haha, little brother Yi has come! You've come at the perfect time today, it's Saturday, and four customers have brought their machines for repair!"

"Just waiting for you!"

"You don't even have a mobile phone, so I couldn't even call you."

Zhao Xingye's chubby face bloomed into a smile, his eyes squinting into slits.

"Hm? Why so many today? Did Boss Zhao do some promotion?" Yi Feng curiously asked.

For his shop's traffic, having over a dozen mainframe repairs a month was already quite good.

"Hehe, nothing much, I just sent a message to each of our previous customers, mentioning that we've now started offering repair services. Hearing that repairs here are more convenient and cheaper, of course, the old customers were happy to come over," Zhao Xingye smiled proudly.

"Boss Zhao really knows how to do business, I'll have to learn more from you in the future," Yi Feng complimented him.

Zhao Xingye, flattered, immediately became even more animated and said, "Hey hey, if little brother Yi wants to learn, we could go into business together. You'll be in charge of the repair service, you can train apprentices, and we can take over the computer repair business in this area, earning hundreds of thousands easily, right?"

Yi Feng had long known he was calculating this, but partnering with Zhao Xingye in business was not an option.

Such a person is purely a businessman.

What is a businessman?

Someone who only sees profits.

As the saying goes, relationships built on profit end when the profits end, and it could even lead to enmity over profits.

For Zhao Xingye, Yi Feng always maintained an attitude of mutual use, and now their relationship was indeed just that.

"Let's talk about this later, I'll go fix the computers first," Yi Feng brushed him off casually and headed to the workbench inside.

Zhao Xingye's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, but he still maintained a smile on his face.

All four mainframes had black screen faults, two were due to memory issues, and two were due to capacitor problems in his motherboard's power supply.

The memory in these two machines was the SDRAMP C10010MS, 64MB, and a new single piece cost over 1300 yuan.

Troubleshooting these old model memory faults was quite troublesome.

"Boss Zhao, tell the owners of these two machines that there's a problem with the memory, and ask them to wait a bit longer. They might be fixed a bit late, around 6 p.m.," Yi Feng turned to inform Zhao Xingye.

"What? They can be fixed today? I thought it would take two or three days. Someone else quoted 1000 yuan and said it would take five or six days to fix!"

"Are you sure they can be fixed today?" Zhao Xingye was astonished.

Yi Feng joked, "Is Boss Zhao doubting my skills, or my character?"

"Ah! No, absolutely not, I didn't mean that at all. I'll let the customers know right away," Zhao Xingye hurriedly explained.

Yi Feng began repairing the computers, and before he knew it, it was 6 p.m.

The customers of the four machines came one after another, waiting to take their machines back.

Yi Feng finally finished his work, tested the machines to confirm they were working normally, and then handed them over.

He had just carried a mainframe out when he suddenly saw a familiar face among the customers.

"Haha! Buddy, are all the computers fixed?" Yang Jian came over with a smile to greet him.

"Ah, Brother Yang, what brings you here?" Yi Feng asked in surprise.

"Nothing much, a friend's computer broke, and I recommended he come to you for repair."

"You fix them fast and well, saves time, and we're heading to the bar later," Yang Jian laughed.

Receiving the customer's approval made Yi Feng very pleased.

Doing business should be like this, one side has a need, the other side can meet that need, everyone gets what they want, and most importantly, the customer recognizes your strength.

This way, they will bring new customers to you.

"Really, thank you for looking after my business. The computer's working fine, right?" Yi Feng asked with concern.

"No problem at all, it works great, just like new. It doesn't even lag when playing Red Alert! You've got skills!" Yang Jian gave a thumbs up in praise.

Yi Feng chuckled, "As long as it works."

In fact, all he did was clean up the memory junk for him.

In this era when computers were not yet fully popularized, most people didn't know how to use them properly after buying them, and there were no third-party software to help them.

So, it was common for computers to become sluggish after prolonged use.

"The computers are all fixed, let me boot them up for you," Yi Feng told the four customers.

He demonstrated each machine in turn, ensuring they were all working perfectly, and they were all delighted, praising Yi Feng's excellent skills.

In the end, they all happily paid the repair fee.

Four people, 800 yuan each, Yi Feng earned 3200 yuan in just half a day!

After the customers left, Zhao Xingye excitedly approached Yi Feng, rubbing his hands together and praising, "Little brother Yi's skills are impressive, even better than those at the Dianke Building!"

"Now in the entire Guangxi City, there are not many places that can repair computers. Most people have to send them back to the manufacturer. If we partner up for a big project, we can definitely make a fortune!"

Yi Feng smiled, switching to a professional tone, "Let's talk about it later, Boss Zhao, time to settle up."

Zhao Xingye's share was 640 yuan, but Yi Feng gave him 650 yuan, insisting he give back

the change.

Seeing Yi Feng seemingly uninterested, Zhao Xingye touched his nose, looking somewhat disappointed.

But he was still happy to receive the money, giving Yi Feng the 10 yuan change.

Earning several hundred yuan a day felt great!

He saw Yi Feng more and more like a golden goose.

If he could pull him into a partnership, they could definitely make a lot of money!

But why didn't the young man seem interested?

After receiving the money, plus the remaining change in his wallet, Yi Feng counted, having 2710 yuan left.

He had made quite a bit of money today!

Great!

Such days had a promising future.
