They came to the deepest part of the air-raid shelter. Chen Yuan reached out and took down a brick from the wall. He saw a piece of wood inside. After he slowly stacked the wood apart, a crack appeared on the stone wall.

Jiang Baige muttered to herself, "Is this a secret room?"

Chen Yuan smiled, "Oh, you understand this."

Jiang Baige said, "I read it in a martial arts novel."

The door was already open, and Chen Yuan said, "Let's go! This is my secret base, a place that no one knows about except me."

Jiang Baige was a little curious about how he found this place, and asked curiously.

"Brother Shen, your home is more than an hour's drive from here! How did you get here and find a place like this?"

As Chen Yuan walked in, he said nonchalantly, "My father always wanted me to be successful, but I disdain the path he arranged for me."

"After he beat me once, I ran away from home with no purpose and ended up here."

"Because it was so cold in the winter, I wanted to go to the mountain to get some firewood to keep warm, so I ended up here without noticing. I was young and brave at that time, so I lit a torch and walked in."

Hearing Shen Yuan talk about his past, the cave suddenly became bright.

It turned out that there was an oil lamp here, which had been lit by Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan looked at this place. He hadn't been here for a long time, and the things inside were a little moldy.

I took a piece of cloth hanging on the wall and wiped a stool clean.

"Sit down, sister."

He laughed and said, "This place wasn't like this before. It was originally an air-raid shelter. I built this door myself later."

Jiang Baige asked, "Why build a place like this when you can't live in a nice big house? Someone might find out one day."

Chen Yuan laughed and said, "When I was little, my father didn't pay much attention to me. Every time he came home to see me, he treated me like a criminal. At that time, I was too naughty and would fight with anyone I didn't like. I was also afraid that my father would beat me when he came back and found out."

"Later, whenever he came back, I would hide here. No one could find me. I would go back after he left."

Jiang Baige couldn't help but exclaimed, "How old were you then?"

Chen Yuan thought for a moment, "Seven or eight! Or maybe eleven or twelve, I forgot."

Jiang Baige couldn't help but click her tongue twice: "You were really brave when you were little. It's a good thing you didn't run into any beggars, otherwise you would have been taken away and sold."

Chen Yuan laughed and said, "They didn't dare. At that time, I was fearless. If anyone really did that, I would tear their house down."

Jiang Baige looked at him carefully and said, "I see you are very stable now! You don't seem like someone who would cause trouble."

Chen Yuan said: "I am already so old, but I still can't grow up. Isn't that useless?"

"Don't ask me about these trivial matters. Just see if I can stock up here! Forget about those electrical appliances you have. We're mainly dealing in food. We can sell it and make money quickly."

Jiang Baige looked around the cave. It was not carved out of stone, nor was it a mud cave that could collapse at any time. Instead, someone had specially repaired it with stone. It was very clean and spacious inside. Apart from being a little damp, there was no other problem.

Jiang Baige asked, "Brother Shen, did you also make these stones?"

Chen Yuan said, "How could I have the strength? These are all left over from the past. I only built this door at the back. This bed and stool were brought here by me."

Jiang Baige shifted his gaze to the stone door again. There were two slides on the top and bottom, and there seemed to be a few iron balls rolling under the stone.

I thought, this is similar to the sliding doors in later generations, but Chen Yuan is really smart, he thought of this.

Chen Yuan sat on the wooden cart that was about to fall apart. He said, "Sister, tell me! How did you get the goods? How many people are there? Do you need my help? And how is the bill settled? Tell me everything."

Jiang Baige didn't want to do wholesale this time, as she wouldn't make much money that way. If she negotiated a share of the profits with Chen Yuan, she could make a little more.

You don't contribute any manpower or effort, and others have to bear the risk by providing assistance, so a 50-50 split is also good.

She asked, "Brother Shen, how much capital do you have?"

She wanted to split it 50-50, but was afraid that Shen Yuan would run away with the money, so she first asked him how much wealth he had.

Chen Yuan really thought about it seriously. Over the years, all the food and money he spent were earned by himself, and he occasionally gave his mother some money to spend, but the family also had a savings of five or six thousand yuan.

He asked, "Is there a lot of goods? I only have a few thousand yuan at home. If it's not enough, I can borrow from someone."

He thought that if he had a lot of goods, he would secretly borrow some money from his mother. Ten or twenty thousand yuan should be enough.

When Jiang Baige heard that he had money, she quickly said, "Actually, what I want to say is, I'll be responsible for getting the goods, and you'll be responsible for selling them."

"I don't want your capital. After you sell the goods, give me half. We'll split it 50-50. What do you think?"

Chen Yuan had never heard of dividing money in this way, but if no capital was required, then it would be a great bargain.

He can make money without spending a penny, which is just like Jiang Baige giving him money.

After thinking about it, I decided not to take advantage of the girl.

He said, "I don't think the 50-50 split you mentioned is right. You're at a huge disadvantage. How about this! I'll take 40 and you'll take 60?"

Then he added: "That's it! I've made up my mind."

Jiang Baige curled the corners of her lips. Since others said so, of course she agreed.

He nodded and said, "Okay! It's settled. From now on, this will be our delivery location. When I deliver goods, I'll just ship them here. You just need to sell your goods."

"I'll leave you an address. If you're out of stock, just write me a letter or send me a telegram. I'll send someone to deliver it after I receive the letter."

Shen Yuan didn't expect it to be so simple, so he quickly reached out his hand.

"Girl, happy cooperation! Trust me, I won't let you down."

Jiang Baige smiled, "Brother Shen, even siblings have to settle accounts clearly. Business matters should be handled separately. Let's write a contract!"

"There's definitely no problem with my supply, but I can't bet you that you'll betray me, right?"

"I guarantee you'll make a good profit of tens of thousands every time I ship goods, but I also need to be able to get the money that belongs to me, don't you agree?"

At first, Chen Yuan's face fell a little because Jiang Baige didn't trust him, but now after listening to her words, he felt that what she said made sense.

Nodding, he said, "Sister, bring me some paper and pen, and write the contract now."

"I believe you. You don't need to write anything. As for me, the only valuable thing is the house my grandmother left me. I'm going to make a bet with you. If I ever betray you, you can take the house."
