After the two finished registering, Li Guosheng said with a smile, "You two go in quickly, I won't take up any more of your time!"
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Li. Next time, please... come to our cannery for a meal!"
Fu Wan's words made Li Guosheng's eyes light up. He had long heard that the food at the factory next door was good, and he had been eyeing it for a while.
After saying goodbye to Li Guosheng, the two headed straight for the shipyard's office area.
Although more than a month had passed since their last visit to the shipyard, they found Li Youchuan's office without much difficulty.
"Comrade Li!"
Hearing the shouts, Li Youchuan turned around and saw Fu Wan and Boss Fu, whom he hadn't seen in a long time. He immediately gave them a friendly smile.
"You two arrived very quickly! I've been waiting for you since early this morning!"
After saying that, he led Fu Wan and Boss Fu toward the workshop, and on the way he did not forget to boast: "Originally, this ship was supposed to be delivered by the end of December, but we just happened to bring in some new machinery and hire a lot of workers. I worked overtime to keep an eye on it, and we managed to finish your ship ahead of schedule!"
"How about that, Comrade Fu? Pretty generous of you, huh?"
Boss Fu and Fu Wan nodded in unison, and Fu Wan gave a thumbs up.
"Thank you so much, Comrade Li! That's very kind of you!"
As they were talking, Li Youchuan led them to the drying area of the paint spraying workshop, where Fu Wan spotted a blue and red fishing boat in the distance.
The paint on the boat was fresh, and there was a strong smell of paint all around. As expected of a steel fishing boat, this boat had a vibrant and energetic feel that was quite different from my old one.
From the moment Boss Fu saw the boat, his eyes were glued to it, unable to look away.
I want to touch it, but I'm afraid I'll break it.
"Comrade Li, when can this ship be shipped out?"
Fu Wan naturally wanted to get the boat back as soon as possible, and Li Youchuan quickly replied, "The paint on the boat has dried. You can pay the final payment today, and once the boat's documents are issued, it can leave the factory."
"But how are we going to get such a big ship back?"
Although Boss Fu loved the ship to the core, he was also facing a dilemma.
Such a big boat can't be carried by my own tricycle.
Before Fu Wan could answer, Li Youchuan burst out laughing.
"Comrade Fu, you don't need to worry about that. There's a dock right behind our shipyard. If you need it, we can send someone to take your boat directly to your village's dock!"
Of course, if you want it transported by truck, that's possible. But as you know, large trailer trucks are too busy, so it might cost extra to deliver it to your location.
Without hesitation, Fu Wan replied, "Then let's ship it by sea. Please help us get it to the dock!"
Spend money where you should, save money where you should. Such a large ship would take a long time to transport by truck, not to mention we'd have to reassemble it later.
That's too much trouble.
Although Boss Fu wanted to be the first to board the new ship, he still agreed to Fu Wan's decision.
"Yes, you can take us to the dock, to the dock in Fujia Village."
Li Youchuan naturally expected this answer; anyone who sees a finished ship would not want to dismantle it and have it transported back to the village by truck.
Moreover, for shipyards, transporting ships directly from the sea allows them to inspect for any problems during the voyage and also helps customers save costs.
After discussing the matter, Li Youchuan gestured for them to proceed, saying, "Comrades, let's go to the finance department now and settle the remaining payment!"
Fu Wan nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's go to the bank with the cashier to transfer the money!"
Li Youchuan didn't say anything about this, since he belonged to the business department and couldn't interfere with the finance department's affairs.
However, Fu Wan's words were agreed upon by the shipyard's cashier.
After signing the final payment confirmation form, Fu Wan and Boss Fu went to the bank with the shipyard's cashier.
Fu Ming was idly lecturing Wangcai outside. If it weren't for the guy following him like a madman, he wouldn't be squatting in the car getting chilled.
As he was cursing and swearing, he turned around and saw Fu Wan and the others coming out.
"Ah Wan, where do we go now?"
Fu Wan beckoned Liu, the cashier, to get in the car, "To the bank, comrade. This tricycle is simple, please don't mind it."
The shipyard's cashier, Liu, wouldn't mind at all, and immediately waved his hand, saying, "What are you saying? I've never ridden in one of these tricycles before!"
Actually, the post office they were going to wasn't very far, but with tricycles available, who would want to walk?
There are quite a few people at the post office in the morning, but it's rare to see someone like Fu Wan who handles tens of thousands of transactions at once.
Liu, the cashier from the shipyard, often came to the post office to handle business, so as soon as they appeared at the entrance of the post office, they were welcomed inside by the post office leaders.
Fu Wan quickly filled out the remittance form and handed it to the staff along with her bankbook. After about half an hour of back and forth, the remaining 45,000 yuan was finally transferred to the shipyard's account.
"Okay, I'll take the receipt back to the bank later to process it. Once the ship arrives tomorrow, you just need to sign it."
Cashier Liu carefully folded the receipt, and Fu Wan put the passbook back into the cloth bag upon hearing this.
"Alright, Comrade Liu, we'll take you back."
As Fu Wan was saying this, she had just stepped out of the post office when a motorcycle suddenly sped up beside her, and the person on it snatched the cloth bag from her hand and ran away without saying a word.
"Holy crap, this is a robbery!"
Fu Wan immediately realized what was happening, shouted, and ran after him.
Fu Ming and Boss Fu's expressions changed instantly as they chased after them.
However, two legs could not catch up with a motorcycle, but the motorcycle had not gone far when it suddenly collapsed to the ground.
"Wangcai!"
Fu Wan chased after it, only to find that Wangcai had caught up with the motorcycle at some point and bit the man's leg.
When it heard Fu Wan call it, it wagged its tail in response, but its mouth remained open.
"Woof woof woof, where did this dead dog come from!"
The robber cursed and tried desperately to drive Wangcai away before running away, but at that moment Fu Wan and Fu Ming arrived.
Fu Wan was naturally ruthless in dealing with this kind of scum, and kicked him hard.
Fu Ming was not to be outdone, and as the two of them were beating the robber, the post office security guards arrived and started hitting the man's hands with sticks. Only then did Fu Wan manage to snatch her bag back.
"Robbery! You don't even check if you have any money before you start robbing!"
She only had one savings account, and the money Ye Xiaocui had given her earlier had just been deposited into the bank.
As for the loose change she needed, it was in the cloth pocket on her body.
The robber was howling in pain, yelling, "I didn't know you didn't have any money in here! You dog, get this dog away from me!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Ming retorted fiercely, "A scum like you, a piece of trash in society, deserves to be taught a lesson by Wangcai!"
Upon hearing its name, Wangcai looked up and barked twice at Fu Wan and Fu Ming, then wagged its tail.
The robber on the ground thought the dog was going to let him go, and just as he was about to get up, Wangcai suddenly pounced and bared its teeth at him again.
"Okay, okay, don't bite me, I won't get up, alright!"
