Chapter 31 -31 I am More Talented_1

Ruan Xiaozhu once again introduced these three girls to Wang Ye.

However, Wang Ye didn’t remember who was who, as none of the girls were significant enough for him to keep in mind…

“Alright, you guys go bowl now, I’m going to chat with my little brother. He just arrived here today and isn’t familiar with the place yet,” Ruan Xiaozhu waved her hand and sent the three girls off to play bowling.

In the spacious booth, only she and Wang Ye were left.

“What do you want to drink? I’ll order for you. Forget it, let’s have beer. Guys who drink cola-type drinks here get laughed at,” Ruan Xiaozhu said, speaking her mind.

What else could Wang Ye say but smile bitterly and nod in agreement?

But what Ruan Xiaozhu said was indeed true: in Moscow, or more precisely in Russia, beer is considered a beverage!

You can always see people of all genders, ages, and backgrounds strolling down the streets and within the campuses, holding a bottle of beer, taking a swig every few steps…

Of course, there are also many who carry bottles of white wine.

But ordinary people won’t consume white wine during working hours. Those who do drink during the day are often looked down upon by Russians as alcoholics!

Soon, the waiter brought over two small bottles of Corona. The light green color of the bottles was especially refreshing.

Without using a glass, Wang Ye took the beer bottle and guzzled down a large gulp.

Ruan Xiaozhu complimented him: “Not bad! Here, men should act like men! By the way, why did you choose Friendship University instead of Moscow University? Moscow University is much better than Friendship University in every aspect!”

Wang Ye smiled bitterly: “But the tuition at Moscow University is much more expensive than at Friendship University…”

Ruan Xiaozhu seemed to realize something and didn’t pursue the topic further.

She wasn’t very clear about Wang Ye’s family situation, but she guessed that his family was not as well off as hers.

For a family from a county town to be able to send their child abroad for studies was already challenging; they certainly didn’t have the resources to be picky.

Dropping this topic, Ruan Xiaozhu started to chat about other things.

“When you’re here, you’re allowed to skip classes and work part-time, but one thing you must pay attention to is to improve your Russian as soon as possible! After all, everyone here speaks Russian. If your Russian isn’t good,

It’ll be difficult to get around. Even when it comes to finding work and earning money, those with good Russian skills earn a lot more than those who don’t…”

She spoke earnestly.

Perhaps for college students in China, a diploma is a big deal and considered their only goal in college.

But for students studying abroad, the diploma might not be that important…..

Of course, for honest students like Song Xiaogang and Liu Xiaojie, they would definitely study hard, strive to graduate smoothly, and get a diploma.

But what use does a diploma have for a rich second generation like Xiao Hu?

There are many students like Xiao Hu here, their purpose of coming here is not to study.

Some might have come to set up a foundation for their families’ businesses, while others might be looking for opportunities to start their own businesses!

As for the others who stay in the dormitory playing games and don’t attend classes, there’s no point discussing them.

Ruan Xiaozhu was right. Whether you came here to get a diploma or intended to start your own business, Russian is a prerequisite!

………

Wang Ye nodded in agreement. Clearly, Ruan Xiaozhu didn’t know about Wang Ye’s current Russian proficiency….

He didn’t mention it either, but earnestly responded, “You’re right, sis. But I think I have a knack for Russian. Last year, the agency organized a language learning class for us. I think I did pretty well. I can basically communicate freely with Russians.”

Wang Ye’s statement was rather conservative; his language skills are obviously much better than what he had described.

But even so, Ruan Xiaozhu was already in disbelief.

She widened her eyes, and asked in surprise, “You can communicate freely just after half a year? I’ve been here for three years, and though I learned the language quite well, still I don’t dare say I can chat casually with Russians. Are you misunderstanding what ‘communicate freely’ means?”

Wang Ye felt helpless, but he couldn’t exactly tell Ruan Xiaozhu the story of his grandfather’s studying in Russia…

He could fool Lao Mao, but Ruan Xiaozhu was a fellow townsman, and their parents were acquainted. Obviously, he couldn’t flesh out lies in front of her.

He could only respond ambiguously, “Perhaps I have a talent for Russian. I’m not sure, but when I studied English before, I couldn’t understand it no matter how hard I tried. But it was different when I started learning Russian…”

As he spoke, he spread his hands out, showing his helplessness.

Ruan Xiaozhu chuckled and pointed at Wang Ye, “You! You’re certainly pleased with your gain and want more! Russian is universally acknowledged as hard to learn. You learned it as soon as you started; I don’t know what to say!”

She was joking.

After chatting casually for a while, Wang Ye said, “Here’s the thing, sister. After I arrived here, I met a friend who has some connections and can get some relatively cheap phone cards. So, I’m currently running a phone card wholesale business. I’d like to know how the students at Moscow University buy their phone cards.”

On hearing this, Ruan Xiaozhu widened her eyes again, sizing up Wang Ye some more, which made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

Wang Ye waved his hand, “Hey, what’s up?”

Only then did Ruan Xiaozhu responded: “I didn’t see that coming! You’re pretty quick-witted, already starting a business the minute you arrived in Moscow? We do have a few students selling phone cards at our university, but their businesses are small. You’re doing wholesale right off the bat?”

Obviously, retail and wholesale are entirely different things.

Just take phone cards for example, technically any Chinese student studying abroad can wholesale a bulk of cards in one go, and then sell them slowly.

It’s not difficult.

Yet in reality, even though it’s not difficult, very few people are willing to do it.

One reason might be that they didn’t think of it, while the other might be that small profits from retailing aren’t worth the effort.

For Wang Ye to invest several thousand US dollars into wholesale right from the start—it’s something an average student wouldn’t even think about or dare to do…

“We usually get phone cards from someone who brings them in from the big market. There actually are students who sell cards in both the main building dormitory and the subdivision dormitory, but their prices are higher than those from the main market…” Ruan Xiaozhu explained the phone card situation at her university to Wang Ye.

This was similar to Friendship University.

With that information, Wang Ye had a clear idea. He nodded and asked, “Could you help me find two students to serve as agents? It would be great if there’s one in the main building and one in the subdivision dormitory, preferably students from lower-income families. Students like you probably couldn’t be bothered to do something like this, huh, haha.”

Ruan Xiaozhu frowned at Wang Ye in displeasure, and retorted, “What’s wrong with being like me? Alright then, I’ll take care of the main building dormitory! I’ll find someone for the subdivision dormitory. As long as the phone cards are cheap, selling them is a piece of cake!”
