As it turns out, Brother Long is still Brother Long. Don't let Yangzi's weight fool you; he really can't outdrink Zhang Long.
Zhang Long sat there like a giant Buddha, with seven empty bottles already at his feet, while Yangzi across from him was still struggling with his fifth bottle.
Yangzi's strength was originally at the level of a dozen bottles, but Zhang Long disregarded martial ethics and launched a forced march.
He drank it on an empty stomach, one bottle after another, giving Yangzi no chance to catch his breath.
Fortunately, at that moment, the food stall owner brought out the dishes, and Xiaoman joked around, telling Zhang Long to eat something to fill his stomach first.
This allowed Yangzi to take a break and go to the restroom to catch his breath.
Zhang Long smiled and gestured to Xiaoman with a cigarette, and to his surprise, she actually took it.
Actually, in the Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan areas, it's not unusual for girls to smoke.
Xiaoman smiled and said to him, "Brother Long, do you find it strange? I don't actually smoke that much. My mom and grandma are the ones who smoke really hard."
"My grandmother used to roll tobacco leaves directly and smoke them."
Zhang Long shrugged and said, "I don't really have any prejudice against girls smoking. We've been advocating for gender equality for so many years."
He then lit a cigarette.
When Yangzi returned, he saw the two of them smoking and said speechlessly, "Damn, so you smoke, Brother Long? I've been putting up with it for so long!"
Then, seeing 1916 in front of him, he exaggeratedly said, "Brother Long, none of the leaders in our station smoke as much as you. Why don't I just work for you?"
As he spoke, Yangzi reached out and placed his hand over the cigarette in front of Zhang Long.
Zhang Long patted his hand, then took out two packets of 1916 from the small bag behind him and threw them to him.
"Take it and use it!"
Yangzi ignored the death stare his girlfriend gave him and happily started ordering.
We'll talk about what happens when we get back. Let's enjoy ourselves first; at least we've had our fun.
The three of them ate and drank until after 10 p.m. before getting up to pay the bill and leave.
Zhang Long hadn't drunk this much in a long time; everyone says drinking depends on the person.
I can drink two cases of liquor with my best friends and brothers, just with some peanuts.
Back at the hotel, Yangzai said, "Brother Long, I asked around for you. It's very difficult to get a low price for those big plantations here because they all have fixed business partners."
Zhang Long said nonchalantly, "If it doesn't work in the city, then we'll just collect it in the countryside!"
"I came here this time to give my comrades who have nothing to do a way to get fruit from the farmers in the countryside."
"If the east doesn't light up, the west will eventually. I'll give you a price, and my comrades here can go and buy it. No matter how much you paid for it, I'll give you the same price for everything."
"As long as there's no problem with the supply, I'll keep buying. I need a lot of it."
Yangzi pondered for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Brother Long, the key question is, can you handle this much cargo?"
"Fruit has a very short shelf life."
"You don't need to worry about me. I have more than 200 directly operated stores in Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou."
“In Shenzhen, there is also a low-quality food processing plant that processes the inferior fruits that are bought back into the market into products such as dried fruit, preserved fruit, fruit juice powder and juice concentrate.”
"If you want to start this grocery business, I can give you the goods first. You can try it out. If they sell well, you can continue selling them. If they don't sell well, you can return them."
"How about it?"
Yangzi and Xiaoman were both moved by Zhang Long's words.
Both of them were railway workers, and their benefits were quite good.
However, they only receive a fixed salary, and the only way to get a raise is through seniority.
They must be very tempted to have a benefactor willing to help them now.
"Brother Long, I'm so touched by your help. How about I repay you with my body?"
As he spoke, Yangzi tugged at the clothes on his shoulder and gave Zhang Long a flirtatious wink.
Zhang Long kicked him and said irritably, "Get lost!"
"Once you've made up your mind, go find a shop and renovate it during this time. When the truck arrives, I'll bring a batch over to test the waters first."
On their way back, Yangzi and his companion were still chattering about the matter.
The two were in complete agreement on where to open the shop, deciding to do so near the train station, where there is a large flow of people.
As for how to acquire the shop, it will definitely require the elders of both families to step in and resolve this matter.
Zhang Long wasn't just talking offhand; this kind of plan definitely needs to be implemented as soon as possible.
He decided to appoint an agent in each city, providing free goods initially to help establish a foothold in the market.
Because as he optimizes a large quantity of fruit, he obtains a large amount of raw materials for by-products, which he will definitely sell.
Furthermore, if you only buy goods but don't sell them, it would be strange if the tax authorities didn't investigate you.
The next day, Zhang Long was still asleep when he was woken up by a knock on the door.
I opened the door sleepily, and sure enough, it was Yangzi, that fatso.
He walked in carrying a thermos and a huge lunchbox.
After putting down the thermos and lunchbox, Yangzi picked up the cigarettes Zhang Long had placed on the bedside table and even offered him one, then lit it.
"Brother Long, I really owe you a debt of gratitude. This is the first time I've had dumplings made by my girlfriend."
"This lunchbox contains potstickers, and this lunchbox contains soup dumplings."
"My mom went to the market early this morning to buy fresh meat and chives."
Zhang Long joked, "It seems your status in the family is in danger. If you get another pet, your status will drop by one."
Since Yangzi has already come over, it means we can't sleep anymore.
So he simply went to wash up. His hair was so long that he didn't need to style it; a headband was all he needed.
When he came out, he found that Yangzi had already started eating, and kicked him in annoyance.
"Didn't you eat at home? Why did you come here to eat?"
"Hey, Brother Long, you have no idea! My food intake has been restricted at home, and I'm never full!"
As he spoke, Chen Yang grabbed another potsticker with his hand and popped it into his mouth.
Here's what I arranged: "Brother Long, you can take a nap at noon, or go for a walk anywhere. We'll have dinner at Jufulou nearby, and after dinner, we'll get a foot massage and then go to karaoke."
"I've arranged everything perfectly for you. I've also called over a few clever comrades, all from our division headquarters, who don't have much to do right now."
Zhang Long naturally had no objection to Yangzi's arrangements; at home, one relies on one's parents, but when one is away, one relies on one's comrades.
Yangzai was clearly trying to introduce him to helpers. He wasn't familiar with the area, so having a local as a supplier would be the best option.
Since there was nothing else to do, he pulled Yangzi to a nearby internet cafe to play games together.
Yangzi, also a netizen, immediately called for friends to form a five-man team.
Regardless of the results, the group had a lot of fun.
