Chapter 85 Stumbling Block



"Open the door if you have nothing to do! The boss asked me to bring this Miss Jiang over. If you have anything to do, go find her. Open the door quickly! The girl has to go back, so don't come so late."

"Oh, I see. You're the girl who disappeared that night! My dear, it was quite a scene that day. I'll open the door for you right away."

After that, the door opened and the warehouse was filled with various materials.

"Over here are some scraps of cloth, not too big. Over there, folded up, are large pieces, more than enough for a quilt cover. In the innermost part are whole pieces, which can be used for anything. I have all the finest materials in this warehouse, so take your pick."

Jiang Cha looked at her elder sister. She wanted to take more, but was afraid of the bad influence.

"Sister, I can't decide either. Can you help me? Which one is better for a wedding dowry?"

She wanted to say she was bringing it to someone else, but her elder sister thought she was getting married. Without saying anything, she went inside and quickly grabbed five pieces of cloth, and then went to where the folded cloth was and grabbed a large pile.

"Sister, this is a bit too much, isn't it a bit bad?"

Jiang Cha was so happy seeing all these people, but he couldn't show it, so he just chatted with them politely.

"It's okay. The factory can't keep the goods even if they're purchased internally. It's first come, first served. Just take them! I think these are about the same. I'll let Old Huang calculate the price for you later. It's not like they're given to you for free, so take them!"

Old Huang, the warehouse manager who held the keys, was calculating prices with a ledger, his abacus clacking and mumbling to himself.

"Old Xiao, you have to be so sharp. I've brought you all the best stuff in the warehouse. A whole piece of material is 200 yuan, and the folded material is 30 yuan a piece, which can be cut into a quilt cover and a pair of pillowcases. You give me 1360 yuan in total. If you don't have enough, you can bring it to me tomorrow."

Jiang Cha quickly took out 1400 from her bag. Such good material will not be available in the future. The authentic old Hangzhou silk material may not be of this quality even if you add two zeros in the future.

Seeing her take out a handful of money directly from her bag, Lao Huang said nothing, and quickly found a few larger pieces of cloth and wrapped them up for her one by one.

"These materials are very delicate and will shed and pill easily. When you get them home, store them carefully and make sure they don't get eaten by insects."

After thanking Lao Huang, she was thinking about how to get out when the older sister came over pushing a bicycle with things spread out on the rack at the back. Was she planning to take her back?

"Hurry up, put your things on it, ride it back by yourself, and then return the bike to me later, okay? It's not far. If it's too far, you can send it to me tomorrow."

"I'm staying at the Armed Forces' guesthouse, which isn't too far away. I'll bring it over to you later. Thank you, sister. You've been a real help to me."

Jiang Cha carefully pushed the loaded bicycle out. The back seat was relatively easy with the whole piece of material tied to it, but the handlebars in front of him swung back and forth due to the large bag. It was definitely impossible to ride the bicycle with so much stuff, and even pushing it was a bit of a struggle.

After walking for about ten minutes, I found a deserted spot and put it in my space. I hopped on my bike and headed to the guesthouse, where I got my letter of introduction and completed the paperwork. I left the nearby supply and marketing cooperative, bought some snacks, and put them in my bike before heading back.

"Sister, I've brought the bike back for you. Thank you so much! Please don't despise this small gesture, or I'll be embarrassed."

I stuffed the snack into my eldest sister's hand and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, this bag is free. You can use it to cut up handkerchiefs or something. It's not much, so take it and go home! Don't forget to come back in a couple of days to handle the paperwork. Okay, hurry back and don't stay out too late."

After saying goodbye to her elder sister, Jiang Cha walked back with a big bag on his back. It took him twenty minutes to find a place to put his things away.

Look, what is a man? He is a stumbling block on her way to stocking up. Without a man in her heart, she will naturally stock up more.
