The little-known kelp seaweed can be sold as far as the capital, and fishermen across the island are very excited. Even if some fishermen are not sure, they are still willing to try. Under this situation, Su Yuanhang's father still thought that a truckload of goods was too big and did not dare to object strongly. But he couldn't help pouring cold water on it.
Su Yuanhang was worried that something would change later, so he asked the captain to work with him to find a transportation team to deliver the goods as soon as possible.
There used to be transportation teams, but later the cars were assigned to various factories, and the transportation teams were banned. The team leader became discouraged: "What should we do?"
The biggest setback Su Yuanhang encountered in his life was the suspension of the college entrance examination. Everyone was the same at that time, so it wasn't a setback for him. He rushed ashore excitedly, but the transportation team was knee-deep in weeds. Su Yuanhang was disheartened, but suddenly he cheered up: "Let's go to the cannery."
"Cannery?"
Su Yuanhang: "I am the director of a food factory, and we are brothers to the cannery. When the mountains are full of oranges and yellow peaches, we will inevitably have to deal with the cannery. If we open up sales, they can also benefit from it. We only have canned yellow peaches and oranges. , they don’t necessarily.”
The captain of the Lotus Brigade woke up from a dream: "No wonder Accountant Ye wants to set up a food factory. Let's go to the cannery now."
When Su Yuanhang saw the factory director, he said that he rented a car to transport goods, but there were only oranges and peaches on the island and he would not compete with the cannery for business. If their oranges and peaches have the opportunity to be sold directly to the capital, the canning share will be given to canneries.
As the factory's efficiency increased, the factory director had the opportunity to be promoted. He said that for the first time, he would be helping a brother unit.
The captain couldn't believe it when he returned to Hengshan Island: "We can use it for free?"
Su Yuanhang nodded: "Once."
"It's okay once. Did the city say that it won't delay things to hang an extra train, and let us use it until the end of the year, and then negotiate the rental fee next year? Isn't this a business without capital?"
Su Yuanhang: "The fare, food, and accommodation are at least fifty for three people."
"You are the director of the factory. If you are on business, the guest house will definitely be cheaper." The captain patted him on the shoulder, "I didn't expect that a food factory with a total of thirteen men and women would be so easy to use."
The transportation was settled, and Ye Fan was responsible for the sales. Su Yuanhang rushed into each brigade, so that the day after Geng Zhiqin received Ye Fan's letter, Su Yuanhang counted the goods squeezed across the island.
Su Yuanhang went to Su Duofu's home and asked Su Duofu to help him calculate how many wooden boxes he needed. Su Duofu asked Su Yuanhang to go to Ye Fan to get the money and go to the paper factory to order wrapping paper with the words "Hengshan Food Factory" and carton.
Ye Fan heard that there was no transportation fee for the time being, so he gave Su Yuanhang two hundred yuan.
When Su Yuanhang got the money and went to Su Duofu's house, he had already made the calculation. Cartons are expensive, but wooden boxes can be reused. Su Duofu used wooden boxes as much as possible, and the packaging only cost a dozen yuan.
Su Yuanhang came back from the city to find Ye Fan again and gave her a hundred yuan. Ye Fan sighed: "Su Duofu's brain is not working well after staying on the island for a long time. Where can I put a truckload of goods without boxes? Did he say that the boxes cannot be left to the supply and marketing cooperative, otherwise new ones will have to be made?" br>
Su Yuanhang nodded: "Brother Duofu said so."
Ye Fan rubbed his forehead: "They won't pack the goods for you when you bring them from the Capital Food Factory? If they pack them in boxes, where will we put the wooden boxes when they come back?"
"This - but I have already asked the carpenter to do it."
Ye Fan: "Put it in the warehouse for packing. You will go to the paper mill again tomorrow. Don't leave yet and send me a letter. I'll ask the director of the supply and marketing cooperative to help us ask the pastry, mooncake and bakery factory if they can give us a few boxes."
Su Yuanhang said quickly: "I forgot to go to the city supply and marketing cooperative to ask them what they were short of."
"Don't be in a hurry. The bread and cakes can be stored for ten and a half months when the weather is cold. If you don't want Yongcheng, you can go to Hangzhou." After Ye Fan finished speaking, he wrote a letter.
Ye Fan only needs a few boxes of goods, which is very simple for the director of Haidian Supply and Marketing Cooperative. He can do it with just a few words. This is also a good opportunity to expand your network. On Sunday, the director rode a bicycle to visit major food and daily necessities factories and wrote to Ye Fan the items he thought the fishermen might need.
On the day when Ye Fan received the urgent express letter from the director, he was watching four old women in the food factory picking out the seafood and packing them into boxes. On this day, Su Yuanhang also got the list of goods they needed from several supply and marketing cooperatives in Hangzhou and Yongcheng.
It's not like these supply and marketing cooperatives haven't thought of selling some new gadgets from the capital. But a family needs four or five boxes, and they don’t make enough money to pay for business trips. Someone will run for them, and they only need to wait to be picked up at the station. It is also appropriate to give people a little "hard work".
Su Yuanhang was very excited to finalize this matter and told Ye Fan that he had calculated how much money the supply and marketing cooperative could make.
It's not easy for Ye Fan to pour cold water on him. The supply and marketing cooperative seems to want a lot of things, but in fact it's not profitable. For example, the Yongcheng Supply and Marketing Cooperative wanted a box of soap. Each box cost two hundred yuan, which was quite a lot, but the soap he wanted was three cents a dollar. You can earn up to one yuan per box. To make money, you have to make big purchases. It’s a pity that the purchase of large items is restricted these days. But overall, I still made a profit.
Ye Fan waited for him to calm down before saying: "The supply and marketing cooperative has a Sanbengzi. You can see it when you go there. Let them lend it to you for two days. You can help them refuel. This will save you from renting a car."
< br>
Su Yuanhang: "But I have never driven a three-bouncer."
Ye Fan smiled and said: "The director of the government does not dare to ask you to drive out as a stranger. Then he will definitely call me sister-in-law or someone else to go with you. He will also say in a high-sounding way that he is afraid that you are new here and don't know the way."< br>
Su Yuanhang didn't think so. He, a foreigner, didn't even know where the Great Hall was, and he couldn't get out of Sijiu City even if he was asked to run. But Ye Fan definitely knew the director of the supply and marketing cooperative better than he did, so she was right.
Su Yuanhang: "When will we ship the goods?"
Ye Fan: "The capital is dry and cool. You can go a few days early, but not too early. And not too late. Do you have a calendar?"
There is no calendar in the food factory office, but there is one in the office of the agricultural and sideline products market director. Su Yuanhang went to get it immediately. Ye Fan flipped through two pages and made up his mind: "The day after tomorrow, we will load the car and set off in the morning on the sixth day of the lunar month, and arrive at the supply and marketing cooperative in the afternoon of the seventh day of the lunar month."
Su Yuanhang: "Is it too late in such a hurry?"
"Are you, Su Duofu, and Su Yuncheng all right? Come here tomorrow to pack the products and ship the goods the day after tomorrow. It's time for Dabao to be out of school. If you're late, you should blame me for not keeping my word." After giving him the calendar, he waved to the warehouse. , "Er Bao, it's time to get off work."
Since Dabao started school, Erbao could only play with Ye Fan. Mom is not around, and Erbao misses her. The second child is so annoyed when he sees his mother every day. The temporary worker has been working these two days. There are many fish and shrimps she doesn't recognize in the warehouse, and there are people chatting with her, so much so that she is more active than Ye Fan at work. She stays in the warehouse for half a day and doesn't mind the fishy smell.
Erbao learned from the temporary worker and rubbed his little hands on his body a few times to wipe it clean: "Mom, give me a hug."
Ye Fan was disgusted: "I really don't want to hug you. Where is your handkerchief?"
Erbao patted his trouser pocket: "Here he is."
Ye Fan asked: "Why not use it?"
"It's dirty."
Ye Fan was speechless: "It's dirty when you use a handkerchief, but it's not dirty when you rub it on your clothes? No wonder your dad is worried about you being deceived in the future. Little fool!"
Erbao shook his head and refused the title: "Not a little fool."
Ye Fan looked at his watch and knew he had to go: "Okay, Erbao is a very smart person." He said to Su Yuanhang, "Let's go back in a while. The mountain road is not easy to walk."
Su Yuanhang nodded, and after she left, he went into the warehouse to help pack the goods.
There was a female worker from the brigade next to the Lotus brigade. Su Yuanhang could be seen working in the fields digging bamboo shoots, and she was the only one among the four who had spoken to him. The lesbian couldn't help but ask: "The accountant said the goods will be shipped the day after tomorrow?"
Su Yuanhang nodded: "She must have a reason for this arrangement. You have to work hard these two days, and I will pay you your wages when I come back from the capital." He worried and warned, "No matter who asks, you can't say it is based on heaven. There is no such thing outside. That’s how we calculated it. We couldn’t afford it on a monthly basis, so the salary for temporary workers was low, seven or eight yuan a month.”
The four people nodded repeatedly, fearing that because their factory went bankrupt, they would lose even seven or eight yuan.
At six o'clock, Su Yuanhang locked the door and drove the four people off work in a walking tractor rented from the Lotus Brigade.
The next morning, Ye Fan sent Dabao to school and carried Erbao to the food factory. There was still a quarter unpacked in the warehouse. Su Yuncheng grabbed a handful of seaweed no bigger than a fingernail and said, "Accountant, do you want this too?"
Ye Fan nodded and put down the second treasure.
Su Yuncheng looked disgusted: "I don't even eat any of my chickens."
Ye Fan laughed and said: "But this handful in your hand can make a bowl of soup. Add some dried shrimps and beat an egg, enough for a family of five to make rice. Wrap it carefully."
Erbao picked up a piece of paper with the words "Hengshan Food Factory" printed on it: "Give it to me, Erbao Bao."
Ye Fan: "Give the paper to uncle, and you can help everyone get things."
Erbao shook his head: "I can!"
Ye Fan: "You are not as fast as them in packing, and they are not as fast as you in getting things. Erbao, do what you are good at."
Erbao seemed to understand and gave the paper to Su Yuncheng. Ye Fan pointed to the box not far away, and Erbao pulled the box to the nearest lesbian. When the female worker saw her face turned red, she subconsciously complimented her, only to realize that she didn't understand her when she said it. However, Erbao smiled sweetly and replied with a local dialect. Ye Fan didn't understand. He was stunned for a moment and asked Su Yuncheng: "What did Erbao say?"
Su Yuncheng said without thinking: "No thanks." He was stunned when he said it, "Er Bao, tell us the local dialect?"
Ye Fan didn't know it and couldn't understand it, so he asked Su Yuncheng to say a few words to Erbao. Erbao really knew it, but he could only speak a few words. Ye Fan looked at his daughter who looked like a little bee thoughtfully,
In the evening, Geng Zhiye arrived home. Ye Fan was cooking seafood rice cake soup in the kitchen. Without his help, he asked Geng Zhiye to teach Erbao Russian. Geng Zhiye suspected that she was too busy and confused: "Erbao is only two years old, and Accountant Ye is just trying to grow the seedlings!" After saying that, he felt speechless again, "Russian is not English, and even playing the tongue depends on talent."
Ye Fan: "You try it first."
Geng Zhiye was idle. He went to the living room and waved to his daughter: "Erbao, I heard that you have another day of work? Are you tired?"
Erbao nodded: "Dad, Erbao is so tired."
Geng Zhiye hugged her on his lap: "I heard that you can speak the local language?"
Dabao was lying on the table doing homework and didn't hear clearly: "What can Erbao know?"
Geng Zhiye: "Local dialect."
Dabao couldn't believe it: "Er Bao, who did you learn from?"
Erbao is busy now and has forgotten a little. She has to think carefully: "Grandpa, aunt."
Geng Zhiye: "Your mother said that she hired four temporary workers, two old people, a man and a woman, and two lesbians in their thirties and forties. Erbao, are they them?"
Erbao nodded: "Dad, can you?"
Geng Zhiye shook his head: "Dad knows something else, do you want to learn it?"
The second baby is very tired from work, the second baby doesn’t want to learn anything, and the second baby wants to go down. Upon seeing this, Geng Zhiye immediately said that her mother would not do it. Erbao immediately wanted to learn, and then asked what to learn.
Dabao slapped the table and laughed. After laughing enough, he shouted towards the kitchen: "Ye Fanfan, did you hear it?"
Ye Fan put the kettle on the stove and came out with a pot of seafood rice cakes: "I heard it. Not only is mom not as good as Er Bao, you are the same. Your dad wants to teach Er Bao Russian." After the words fell, Geng Zhiye said, Er Bao is like It's a little parrot, and it looks a bit like it, but even an outsider knows it's not standard. Even so, Geng Zhiye was very shocked and asked in an extremely uncertain tone: "What is Er Bao's talent in this area?"
Ye Fan nodded: "It seems so now." Considering that his daughter is two years old, "I may not like it in the future. Just teach her a few words when you have time, so that you don't forget."
Dabao put away his homework book: "Can't mom?"
When Ye Fan was in middle school, the country was having a bad fight with Big Brother in the north. The English she learned in school: "My mother didn't learn it."
Dabao: "But grandma, grandpa, uncle and aunt all know it."
Geng Zhiye said: "Your mother's surname is Chen, and the Chen family does not have this talent."
Ye Fan smiled and nodded: "That's right. Because I can't speak Russian, they have the nerve to ask me to go back to Shanghai. Dreaming!"
Dabao felt that his mother’s focus was wrong. As soon as he saw the rice cake and seafood handed over by his mother, who cares! Dabao is hungry, Dabao eats first!
At night, after the two children went to bed, Geng Zhiye said: "If I had known they were so talented, I would have thought of a way to return to the capital."
Ye Fan: "Are you worried that no one will teach them here? One is a little over two years old, and the other is under five years old. Do you want to tire them out? It's not too late to learn at the age of ten. The higher ups don't dare to let you stay here forever. .”
Staying there for a lifetime is almost like occupying the mountain and becoming the king. Geng Zhiye heard what she meant and turned around with a smile: "I forgot. Are you tired today?"
Ye Fan held his hand and said, "The goods will be shipped early tomorrow morning."
Geng Zhiye suddenly lost all thoughts, "So fast?"
Ye Fan: “It’s easy to sell during the Mid-Autumn Festival.”
Geng Zhiye turned on the lamp: "Go to sleep."
After a dreamless night, Ye Fan woke up in a good mood. Geng Zhiye went to buy groceries and saw Su Yuanhang leading a group of people to move goods. Some used pallet trucks, others drove hand tractors, and even the groceries came up to help. When Geng Zhiye got home, he asked Ye Fan to take a look. Ye Fan was shocked when he arrived at the door of the food factory: "Why are there so many people?"
Su Yuanhang ran over and explained: "Everyone says idleness is idle."
Ye Fan: "Do they know you can get paid for loading the car?"
Su Yuanhang nodded: "I know. They are all voluntary help. Tell the temporary workers we hired to go home to eat, and save your energy to wait for the ship to dock and unload the cargo."
Ye Fan took a look at the busy but excited fishermen who were sweating profusely, and decided to hand out the money as soon as Su Yuanhang came back: "You should sleep or eat when you get to the car. This is not a one-time deal."
< br>
Su Yuanhang nodded: "We know. There are so many things prepared for us at home that we won't be able to finish them all in the capital."
Ye Fan: "Keep the address and phone number I gave you."
Su Yuanhang was worried that he had lost it carelessly, so he copied two more copies, one for Su Yuncheng and one for Su Duofu. Just as Su Yuanhang was about to tell her, Su Yuncheng ran over: "Brother Yuanhang, it's ready."
Ye Fan was surprised: "Is the move finished?"
Su Yuncheng nodded: "It's time to sail. Everyone is waiting impatiently." Ye Fan: "Then let's go to the dock."
Behind the agricultural and sideline products market is a small pier built by the fishermen themselves. Ye Fan saw several large fishing boats within a few minutes of walking. Su Yuanhang explained: "I originally wanted to comfort everyone that even if it is difficult to sell, there will not be much loss in bringing it back, because the transport truck does not cost any money. Everyone said that we cannot ask outsiders to compare, and they will transport it for us for free."
Ye Fan nodded: "It should be as much as possible from now on. If you talk about favors every day, the business will not last long. If you are embarrassed, wait until the capital to listen, see and ask more. What do they lack and what do we plant?"
Su Yuanhang remembered something: "Do you know why our brigade is called the Lotus brigade?"
Ye Fan: "The Lotus Brigade has a low-lying land where rice can be grown. However, it rains continuously during the Qingming Festival, and the water level is too high to plant rice. The area is too large and it is difficult to drain. It would be a pity not to plant anything. Now there is a patch of lotus roots. ”
Su Yuanhang was shocked: "You even know this?"
Ye Fanxin said that you think my oil money is free: "You want to sell lotus roots? It's unrealistic. There are people who grow lotus roots in the capital, and there are also ones in the surrounding areas. In addition to keeping enough for yourself, let's plant lotus seeds instead. Let people who are good at growing these grow. If you think about it more, you won’t have to worry about selling it if it’s better than others.”
Su Yuanhang said that he couldn't even eat enough. Who would want to drink lotus seed porridge: "We can make lotus root starch."
Ye Fan: "Do you have a machine?"
Su Yuanhang shut up. Another thing came to mind: "There is a teacher in the next village, he seems to be from an agricultural college."
Ye Fan nodded: "Then give him a comfortable environment and improve the food."
Su Yuanhang: "You don't seem surprised?"
Ye Fan: "I've heard a lot and seen a lot in the past few years. Don't be too flattering. If you have real skills and are sent to the island, you shouldn't be a flatterer. When you ask him for advice, don't mention the food factory. Bring someone who knows how to grow fruits and vegetables." The old man who has worked hard for half his life.”
Su Yuncheng was carrying luggage behind the two of them. Hearing this, he couldn't help but ask: "Accountant, what's the point?"
Ye Fan: "Most people will put down their guard when they see a weak person and can't help but feel sympathy. It's more useful than the flattery of you two who smoke, drink and eat."
Su Yuanhang immediately believed that he could harvest lotus seeds just by listening to her instructions.
When Ye Fan saw the goods, he boarded the ship and said, "If you have any questions, just ask Chen Xiaohui or Geng Zhiqin."
Su Yuanhang paused and got on the boat and waved to her to see if the goods were put away. Su Yuncheng followed him with his bag and whispered: "Brother, isn't Chen Xiaohui that person?"
The brothers come to the vegetable market often these days, and they heard that Ye Fan's real surname is Chen. Su Yuanhang was once worried that the Capital Supply and Marketing Cooperative would change its mind because of this. But the matter has come to this, he must try it once, otherwise he will regret it for the rest of his life.
In the end, Ye Fan brought it up on his own initiative.
Su Yuanhang didn’t understand: “You’ll find out when you get to the capital.”
One day, one night and half a day, dozens of hours, sounds very long. The three people who came to Beijing for the first time were extremely excited. Instead, they felt that they had not seen enough scenery along the way.
Just as Ye Fan said, I went to Haidian Supply and Marketing Cooperative that afternoon.
Since Ye Fanpan left, there are fewer and fewer special offers day by day. The neighbors are very dissatisfied, but they don't dare to offend the purchasing station responsible for purchasing agricultural and sideline products. They can only wander around the supply and marketing cooperative, hoping to bring Ye Fanpan back one day. .
This weekend, there were a lot of people near the supply and marketing cooperative. A lot of things were brought there, and they were obviously not from the purchasing station. A neighbor lady who was familiar with Geng Zhiqin squeezed Su Yuncheng's three people away, "Comrade Geng, what are you talking about?"
< br>
Geng Zhiqin: "Sea food."
Auntie is very disappointed and can't afford it.
The director accidentally caught a glimpse of this scene and immediately said loudly: "There are no purchase restrictions on these things outside the door. Don't panic and don't stock up. Accountant Ye asked someone to deliver this. There will be more in the future."
Everyone rushed to grab the restricted items. As soon as it was announced that there was no restriction on purchase, the adults and aunties who tried to secretly open the cartons stopped immediately.
The director and accountant of Xicheng Supply and Marketing Cooperative were also there at this time. They were worried that northerners would not be used to southern seafood, so they did not dare to agree to the director of Haidian Supply and Marketing Cooperative to take half of it, so they said they would see what was available first. Director Xicheng asked Director Haidian to open a box and take a look.
The director of the store said in a low voice: "We haven't said the price yet, why are you in a hurry?" He waved to Su Yuanhang and the other three, "Go to my office and drink some water."
The two people from Xicheng followed and poured water for the three of them. The director of the store took out the price list that he had prepared. Su Yuanhang's face changed slightly after seeing it. The director wanted to say something, but Su Yuanhang quickly said: "Okay!"
Su Duofu immediately wanted to hide out, but he couldn't even see.
The price given by the director was not high, but unexpectedly it was still high. But when he glanced at Su Duofu's expression, he knew that he knew his stuff, and he immediately changed his mind and said that this was the external selling price. The director turned out a blank page and held up a pen: "Then let's go over the scale, right?"
Su Yuanhang stood up quickly, fearing that the director would regret it.
The director wanted to laugh: "Don't worry, I can't run away. Show me your ID."
Su Yuanhang: "I am——"
Director: "I know you are the director of the food factory. Let me see the issuing unit and ask the superiors later. I can't tell them so I can ask them to find your leader."
Su Yuanhang hurriedly handed over the documents. When the director saw that it was indeed the same as the food factory that usually delivers goods to them, he felt relieved. When he went outside, he called Geng Zhiqin and asked Chen Xiaohui to keep accounts.
The aunt who was born in Jiangnan and came to the capital for various reasons asked: "Director, when will it be sold?"
Director: "Let me take a look first."
Geng Zhiqin had the same experience, and the director saw the same thing. After weighing everything, the director had a rough idea.
When the fishermen package, they indicate the categories of high, medium and low on the outside of the box, so the director does not have to ask his people to pour out the items and then price them. He read it again, this time writing the price in the book as he read it. For about ten minutes, the director thought over and over again to make sure there were no omissions, then pointed to the boxes and told everyone which ones were the cheapest and which ones were the most expensive, including kelp, seaweed and abalone.
When uncles and aunties heard about abalone, they all said they couldn’t afford it.
The director calmly explained that abalone is not expensive and told the price. Su Yuanhang's face changed slightly because the price was 50% higher than the price given to him. Su Yuanhang lowered his voice and asked Su Duofu: "Will anyone buy it at such an expensive price?"
No one dares to stand out these days. Even if you have money and want to eat, you don’t dare to be the first to stand up.
Chen Xiaohui wanted to say something, but the director pulled her back. This girl looked smart, but that was just her appearance. The director loudly reminded everyone that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, which was a perfect time to entertain the new son-in-law or future daughter-in-law. Abalone can also honor the elders.
As soon as this reason came out, the uncle and aunt who were not short of money immediately asked the salesperson in the house to get a scale and weigh one pound.
When Chen Xiaohui saw this, she understood why the director didn't ask her to speak. She didn't expect to say this. Chen Xiaohui was embarrassed to ask the director, so she asked Geng Zhiqin: "How to sell those kelp?"
Su Duofu opened the cartons containing kelp, dried prawns, and dried shrimps, and told the uncles and aunts how to make them and how much they cost per pound.
There are still many people who are reluctant to buy abalone. When I heard that these prices were half the price of last year, I immediately gave them to each other, just like buying cabbage.
Su Yuncheng's eyes straightened and he murmured: "The people in the capital are so rich..."
There are many dual-income families near Haidian Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Some of the surviving parents have three or four people eating commercial grain. Besides, after soaking the kelp, a piece as big as an adult’s palm can make a small dish. There is also a saying that eating kelp can prevent big neck disease, so that every household does not mind buying a few kilograms.
Within half an hour, the golden crows were falling, and the kelp was sold out.
Su Duofu, who is well-informed, has never seen people buying things like this. It seems like he has seen the scene 20 years ago when everything was exhausted and everyone was full of energy.
The director of Xicheng Supply and Marketing Cooperative pulled the director of Haidian back into the store: "We can't sell any more."
Director of the seaside store: "I'll keep the big eel and dried abalone for you."
Director Xicheng was speechless: "Who-am I selling to?"
Director of Haidian: "Are you afraid that no one will buy it? The people over there are richer than the people over here."
Director Xicheng sneered: "You are close to the factory, but my place is full of courtyards!"
"There are no workers in the courtyard?"
"Who is rich and lives in a large courtyard? You must leave me some kelp and small things like shrimp skin and seaweed."
The director of the store did not relent: "Let's take a look first. If it is sold out today and tomorrow, we will ask them to go back and pull another cart."
Director Xicheng asked: "Is there any more on the island?"
There are more on the island. Many fishermen initially supported Su Yuanhang. But they heard that the secretary was not optimistic about it, so they didn't go when Su Yuanhang was receiving the goods at the brigade headquarters. Su Yuanhang wanted to find these people to ask what was going on, but Su Duofu said that something might have delayed him. It’s not enough to fit them all in one car, so it’s just fine if they don’t come. In fact, he was unsure, fearing that Su Yuanhang and Ye Fan wouldn't be able to sell out.
When the director of Haidian Supply and Marketing Cooperative accompanied director Xicheng to ask Su Yuanhang how much seafood was left on the island, Su Duofu answered for Su Yuanhang that there was still half a car. Then he said that fishermen have been harvesting a lot from going out to sea every day recently. The island is hotter than the capital, and many big fish and shrimps can be harvested in a few days.
As soon as the two directors heard this, they knew that it would be easy to get another car, so they asked them to go back tomorrow morning and send another car before August 13th.
Several people were behind Geng Zhiqin. When Geng Zhiqin heard this, she asked her colleagues in the room to watch for her. She went home to get Dabao's little book, as well as the clothes, shoes, toys, etc. that her mother made for Dabao Erbao.
Early the next morning, Chen Xiaohui and Geng Zhiqin went to the guest house where the three of them were staying. After the two left, Su Yuncheng looked at a large bag of clothes and a small bag of food, and couldn't help but ask: "Didn't it mean that neither the Ye family nor the Geng family wanted to see Accountant Ye?"
After leaving the oppressive environment, Su Duofu couldn't help but reveal his true nature: "Fart! Whoever is disliked by his mother-in-law's family dares to do such a thing. If he is not careful, he will have to squat there for several years."
Su Yuanhang really understood this time, those girls on the island were just talking nonsense.
Su Duofu gave Su Yuanhang a class last night, and the first quote the director came up with was actually the lowest price. He probably prepared several. Su Yuanhang said that on other people's territory, you must listen to them. Su Duofu said that with Ye Fan's relationship, the director would not be able to make things difficult for them. Su Yuanhang pretended to be embarrassed and shed two more tears, and the director would get at least a 10% bonus.
Even though Su Yuanhang didn't believe it, he felt that Su Duofu knew more than him, so he said, "Will you two come over later?"
Su Yuncheng nodded: "Okay. I'm not tired at all."
Su Duofu: "It won't bother you even if you want. Yesterday's sales were good because the holiday was coming soon, and it was impossible not to buy when relatives and friends gathered together. From now on, it may be once a month. By the end of the year, I can make more trips."
< br>
Su Yuanhang remembered one thing: "Goods from Yongcheng and Hangcheng Supply and Marketing Cooperatives."
Su Duofu: "The train won't leave today."
Su Yuanhang couldn't help but ask: "Then why didn't you say anything yesterday?"
Su Duofu: "The two directors were in high spirits. I said they couldn't go back. They must have felt uncomfortable. Yuncheng, you stay here and look at the things. Yuanhang and I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to check out and buy things. We'll pick up the goods early tomorrow morning. Go.”
Sure enough, it was exactly what Su Duofu said. When the two of them arrived at Haidian Supply and Marketing Cooperative, the director said he had forgotten that the bus they were following would leave tomorrow. Su Duofu took the opportunity to propose that he wanted to buy some specialties from the capital, and the director asked Geng Zhiqin to drive a three-bouncer to accompany them.
Su Yuanhang said in his heart that it was the same as Accountant Ye said.
Therefore, he admired Ye Fan even more.
The next morning, the three of them got on the train going south as if they were in a dream.
After getting off the train the next morning, Su Duofu called the supply and marketing cooperative. In the evening, when the three of them returned to the island, Su Yuanhang went directly to Ye Fan's house and gave her all the money he had hidden close to him.
Ye Fan took it and Su Yuanhang slumped on her long chair, sighing: "I didn't dare to blink during this whole journey."
Ye Fan returned the cloth bag to him: "Go home quickly. Inform all the teams to come to the office to get the money tomorrow morning."
Geng Zhiye: "Aren't you going to sleep tonight?"
Ye Fan: "It seems like a lot of trouble. Temporary workers, shipping money, renting a walking tractor, and their round trip expenses, but it's actually not much. It can be done in an hour."
Geng Zhiye didn't understand the distance between them, and suspected that Ye Fan said that just to comfort Su Yuanhang. However, they hurriedly settled the accounts before the lights were turned off in the family area.
Geng Zhiye sighed: "My Ye Fanfan is really awesome."
"My Captain Geng doesn't trust me very much."
Geng Zhiye hugged her: "I'm afraid you'll make me look fat. I haven't slept well these past few days, have you?"
Ye Fan knew the director well and was not worried about him going back on his word. Ye Fan was worried that someone would cause trouble during special times.
"It's your first time after all. Go to sleep. I guess someone will come to our door early tomorrow morning."
Geng Zhiye nodded: "Maybe quite a few."
However, neither couple expected to see many people chatting outside the fence yard when they opened the door. Geng Zhiye still held the spittoon in his hand and hurriedly ran to the toilet before they noticed.
Ye Fan rubbed his eyes to make it look like he hadn't just woken up. He cleared his throat before opening the door: "Why are you up so early?"
The fishermen's homes outside the door are not far from the family area, and Ye Fan's chimney can be seen from their homes. A group of people kept saying that they were out for a walk, and told Ye Fan not to worry, they would leave in a moment.
