"His abilities are indeed commendable; coming to the Ministry of Science and Technology would be the best arrangement for him." Zhou Pin valued his talent.
"What did Aunt Wu and Li Jingjing say?"
"They all respected his wishes."
"Then there's no problem at all."
"We're afraid his uncle won't release him; we're short-handed right now."
"What a sweet burden!" Xu Lin said, seemingly unconcerned.
After returning home, the two washed up and rested.
The next morning, after Xu Lin finished breakfast, she set off for the trading market with her backpack, leaving Zhou Pin at home to look after the house.
The market was crowded, but most people were there to buy things; there were very few sellers. Perhaps due to the severe damage caused by the insect infestation, Xu Lin seemed to have discovered a new business opportunity.
After searching for 10 minutes, I finally found Sister Chen.
"Oh, Miss Xu, what a coincidence!" Sister Chen said with her signature smile.
"It's not a coincidence; I came here specifically to find you."
"Do you have any?" Sister Chen asked quietly as she approached Xu Lin.
"Not only do we have goods, but we also have business to do with you." Xu Lin gestured for the two to find a secluded place to talk.
"Let's talk in my shop," Sister Chen said, pulling Xu Lin toward a store.
It's been a few days since I last saw Sister Chen, and she's already opened a shop. Looks like business is booming. The two walked to a shop that didn't yet have a sign, and Sister Chen invited Xu Lin inside.
"Sister Chen."
The sales clerk who was tidying up the counter greeted Sister Chen, and Sister Chen nodded to let her continue.
Xu Lin glanced around and saw that the shop was about 40 or 50 square meters in size. Judging from the layout, it should be a general store. There was no decoration, and it sold a variety of things, including grains, seeds, daily necessities, antiques, and designer bags provided by Xu Lin.
Xu Lin walked around the store. No wonder Sister Chen was able to open a store. Putting everything else aside, the cheapest bag Xu Lin gave her cost eight or nine thousand points, enough to buy thousands of kilograms of grain, enough to feed an adult for a year.
"Sister Chen's shop is doing quite well!" Xu Lin said.
"It's nothing special. I only had the start-up capital thanks to the bag you gave me last time, plus all the savings I had accumulated. Look, the shop isn't even decorated yet, we don't even have a storefront!" Sister Chen said modestly.
"What modes do you use here?" Xu Lin asked, intrigued.
"To put it simply, this is a general store. You can buy things, sell things, and exchange things here."
"Let's come in and talk." Seeing that a guest had arrived, Sister Chen opened the door to the reception room and let Xu Lin in.
The reception room was only about 10 square meters. As soon as Xu Lin sat down, the staff brought her tea.
"How is it? Is it the same stock as last time?" Sister Chen asked impatiently.
"I do have the goods, but do you have enough antiques?" Xu Lin asked.
"Sister doesn't have much else, but she has a lot of antiques. She's collected quite a few recently, and she's saving them all for her younger sister!" Sister Chen said warmly. "Wait a moment, I'll get them for you."
As she spoke, Sister Chen went out to make a phone call. Fifteen minutes later, Sister Chen and the shop assistant returned, each dragging a small trolley.
After sending the shop assistant away, Sister Chen opened the box on the trailer, and an antique aura immediately wafted out, making it clear that it was genuine without any authentication.
"I'm going to pick up the goods."
Before leaving, Xu Lin packed 50 bags into two suitcases and a backpack. She placed the suitcases on the tricycle and carried the backpack with her. Zhou Pin had installed a canopy on the tricycle during the insect infestation, so the suitcases were not visible from the outside.
When Xu Lin dragged the suitcase in and opened it, Sister Chen's eyes crinkled with laughter.
Then came the inspection process, where Xu Lin examined each antique, while Sister Chen went through all the bags.
