Over the course of a meal, the website’s traffic spiked to over forty thousand.
The number of new registered users reached 8655!
This growth rate was something Jiang Xu had not anticipated.
How could it increase so dramatically?
Jiang Xu estimated that promoting the website in reader groups would perhaps contribute an extra ten to twenty thousand to the traffic, which would be quite impressive.
Could the rest of the traffic be attributed to Sister Xiaoyuan’s effort?
Thinking it over, Jiang Xu called Wang Xiaoyuan again.
“Hehe, are you surprised? You now owe me a big favor.”
Jiang Xu was curious, “Sister Xiaoyuan, how did you do it?”
Wang Xiaoyuan said boastfully, “It’s simple, one of my bestie’s cousin is the student council president and also the school beauty…”
After Wang Xiaoyuan explained, Jiang Xu understood.
The school beauty was extremely popular at university.
She had many suitors.
Not only from the university but from outside too.
Wang Xiaoyuan asked her friend to help, letting the school beauty help with promotions.
Her suitors (the men who were trying to court her) naturally helped to promote the site in various ways.
Thus, the website’s traffic skyrocketed, just as Jiang Xu saw.
After listening, all Jiang Xu could say was that it was incredible.
Indeed, network traffic is essential in the digital space.
“I’m very grateful to you, Sister Xiaoyuan.” Jiang Xu sincerely said, “By the way, do you happen to have the school beauty’s contact information?”
“Hey, don’t you overstep, now.” Wang Xiaoyuan warned, “She helped you, are you planning to take advantage of her?”
“What are you talking about?” Jiang Xu was unhappy, “I just want to express my gratitude to her and invite her for a meal.”
Wang Xiaoyuan: “Excuses, continue making your excuses.”
Jiang Xu: “Alright, wait for me.”
Wang Xiaoyuan: “… Fine, I can’t waste time chatting with you, I have things to do.
Don’t forget about me when you become successful in the future.”
Jiang Xu: “Don’t worry Sister, I will repay your kindness a hundredfold in the future.”
Wang Xiaoyuan: “Pah, you make it sound like you want to take revenge on me.”
Jiang Xu started to laugh heartily.
After ending the call, Jiang Xu flexed his wrists and continued to update the website.
So far, “Martial Universe” had over two million words.
The first million words had been updated recently.
The remaining content was set to update automatically, at a rate of fifteen thousand words a day.
This daily update volume would be considered average in ten years.
But for now, it was remarkably high.
It was certainly enough to satisfy the readers.
Nuonuo didn’t rest either, she remained focused on the screen.
She had become quite proficient at typing with two fingers.
Like a nimble penguin.
At two in the afternoon, the employees outside woke up.
The first thing they did was to log into the website’s backend to check the related data.
After all, their job was closely related to the website.
“Wow!”
“My God, am I dreaming?”
“This…This…”
Sounds of astonishment filled the air.
The data had undergone considerable changes while they were taking a nap!
Lin Nan rubbed her eyes vigorously, “Over one hundred thousand website visits, over thirty thousand registered users, two hundred paying users, total income one thousand two hundred!”
If it were a big company, this data would have been disastrous.
But for this small company, which did not have any promotional funds during its early stage, the results were rather explosive.
Moreover, the books on the website charged after every three hundred thousand words.
It was just the first day, and many people hadn’t reached the paid sections yet.
By ten o’clock that night or the next day, there should be a significant increase in the number of paying users.
All the employees were incredibly motivated and filled with confidence for the future.
Before they knew it, it was time to close for the day.
Just as Lin Nan was about to leave, Jiang Xu stopped her.
He asked her to hire a couple more programmers for everyday website maintenance.
After all the employees had left, Jiang Xu said to Nuonuo, “I’m going to help out at the restaurant, do you want to go home yourself or…?”
“I’ll go home.” Nuonuo whispered, “I need to stay with mom.”
Jiang Xu understood.
Nowadays, An Feng was not focusing on their home here.
The restaurant was bustling with business.
Customers were coming and going nonstop, everyone was kept busy on their toes.
The moment Jiang Xu arrived, he dove right in to help.
The business turnover of this week could probably increase by three to five times.
“Now, we interrupt for local news, North Sixth Road in Jiang City will soon undergo upgrading and reconstruction. Here are the details…”
Jiang Xu, who was passing by the television with a tray in his hand, stopped to listen.
“Mom, dad, come here quickly!”
His loud voice startled Chen Yue and Jiang Shan.
Thinking that something serious had happened, they rushed over.
“What’s wrong, son? Are you hurt?”
“No.” Jiang Xu shook his head, pointing to the TV, “Look at this news.”
The couple looked at the TV simultaneously.
“This is a local news report. After extensive investigation and research, the Jiang City departments have decided to upgrade North Sixth Road in Jiang City.
This upgrade will establish an intercity connection between Jiang City, Deep City, and Hua City, forming a new super economic business circle…
Moreover, a subway, a panda breeding base, and other facilities will also be constructed.”
After watching, Chen Yue and Jiang Shan were puzzled.
“Is there a problem with this news?”
They hadn’t realized the significance of the news yet.
As there were many people outside, Jiang Xu pulled his parents into a small room.
Once the door was closed, he burst into laughter, “Did you forget that I bought those two unfinished buildings? They’re located there.
Now you can relax. The news was just released, and they’re going to start renovating.
The property prices in that area are bound to surge. You two can start looking forward to enjoying a life of luxury.”
Upon hearing this, the utensils in their hands clattered to the floor.
Fortunately, they were made of stainless steel.
“Wait a minute.” Chen Yue rubbed her temples, “Son, could you repeat what you just said?”
Jiang Xu understood his parents’ how they felt and repeated what he had just said.
After being certain that the news was factual, both of them couldn’t contain their excitement and burst into laughter.
“Son!” Jiang Shan immediately asked, “So, how much money can we make?”
Jiang Xu thought for a moment, “I bought the buildings for nineteen million.
With the upcoming developments around that area, property prices will skyrocket.
In the short term, it’s not a problem for the price to increase by five or six times.”
“So that would be eighty million!” Chen Yue was so excited that she nearly jumped up.
“That’s my boy, I knew you’d achieve great things.”
Jiang Shan also nodded with a beaming smile, “My son has the makings of a tycoon.”
Jiang Xu: “…”
That’s not what you were saying earlier.
My mixed-doubles situation is still fresh in my memory.
Although he had these thoughts, he didn’t dare say them out loud.
Otherwise, he’d probably have gotten beaten up.
Jiang Xu said with a smile, “Who told you it’s eighty million? I bought two buildings. That’s 1.6 billion.”
“Thud!”
When his words fell, Jiang Shan and Chen Yue both sat on the floor in shock.
