Chapter 702 Comrade Xiao Fu is really interesting
Upon hearing this, Li Youchuan coughed twice.
"You're quite the bargainer, young man. Tell me your budget, and I'll ask around for you later."
"At most 250,000."
"Two hundred and fifty thousand? That won't do, we can't make money at that price."
Okay, here's the price: 268,000. I'll also throw in two more trawl nets and a suitable trawler.
Fu Wan pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then it'll be 268,000."
Li Youchuan is indeed cunning. If she hadn't bargained, she would have lost a lot of money, as the price ranged from 300,000 to 268,000.
That's tens of thousands of yuan; it would take her cannery several months to earn that back.
Li Youchuan quickly wrote a few words on a piece of paper, then told Fu Wan to wait while he turned to find his superior.
In reality, Li Youchuan's authority only allows for a maximum discount of 10%. The original price was 300,000, but now it's 268,000. That's a bit over the limit, so he needs his superiors' approval.
However, Li Youchuan knew in his heart that the leaders would definitely agree to the price of 268,000, since there was a profit of tens of thousands in it.
Sure enough, after thinking for a few minutes, the leader finally agreed to the price. He couldn't help it; it was the Lunar New Year, and he wanted to close out the holiday with a big deal.
After signing the contract and paying the deposit, Fu Wan glanced at her bank account and saw that she still had over two million yuan left, including the money she had earned from selling fish over the past six months.
She took out 50,000 yuan and put it into the cloth bag that Fang Min had brought.
Fang Min was completely stunned. The 10-yuan bills were worth 50,000 yuan, which meant she was carrying a whole sack of banknotes.
However, Fu Wan also brought her a gun this time, just in case of any unexpected situation.
Before leaving, Li Youchuan specially escorted Fu Wan and the others to the door. The security guards were speechless. They were from the neighboring factory, so why was there anything to escort them to?
"Hey Director Li, not to be rude, but doesn't your factory give out New Year's gifts? Look, I've been doing business for your factory. When will you do some business for our factory too?"
Upon hearing this, Li Youchuan rolled his eyes at Fu Wan and said, "What are you saying? Little Factory Director Fu, you probably don't know how many canned food orders your company has."
The canned goods I ordered from Deputy Factory Director Wang last time took half a month to arrive. I was even thinking of saying, "We're old neighbors, can't I cut in line?"
Fu Wan laughed at these words.
Well, she hadn't even noticed that the shipyard had also ordered canned fish.
However, Li Youchuan's statement suggests that he likely intends to buy it.
"Here's what we'll do, Director Li. If the shipyard still needs more, hurry up and ask Uncle Wang if he can let you cut in line. It'll be a maximum of two hundred bottles, no more."
"Our cannery is closing for the holiday tomorrow!"
"What? You guys are on holiday?"
Li Youchuan was so envious; they still had to work until they were twenty-nine!
Fu Wan smiled, then leaned closer and whispered to him, "Director Li, I left a New Year's gift in our security department. Please take it home with you when you leave work."
"Oh, this..."
Just as Li Youchuan was about to decline, Fu Wan waved her hand, "Director Li, then that's settled, see you after the New Year!"
"Okay, done!"
As the director of the shipyard, this wasn't the first time Li Youchuan had received gifts, so when Fu Wan said that, he simply went along with it and went to the cannery after get off work that evening to pick up a box of apples and a bag of peach shortbread.
However, when he got home and opened the package, he discovered that there was actually a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes stuffed underneath the peach shortbread.
Wow, this Comrade Fu is really something!
After saying goodbye to Li Youchuan, Fu Wan and Fang Min drove to Feng Ji's place.
Feng Ji was still polishing his antiques in the shop, while the radio next to him was playing opera.
"Uncle Feng, are you busy?"
This time, Fu Wan didn't knock at the door and just went in carrying her things. It's understandable; with things in her hands, she couldn't knock.
Feng Ji was startled by the commotion and almost dropped the antique bottle in his hand.
Upon seeing that it was Fu Wan, Feng Ji was overjoyed, but then habitually put on a stern face and glared at her.
"You silly girl, you still remember this old man!"
Fu Wan chuckled and said, "I remember. I went on a long trip a while ago, and I came to see you as soon as I got back!"
Feng Ji was pleased to hear this, and he said, "I was wondering why this girl hasn't come to see me in so long."
Looking at the things Fu Wan brought in, Feng Ji couldn't help but complain a couple of times.
"You're here, why did you bring anything?"
"You have so much money you don't know what to do with it?"
Fang Min frowned upon hearing this, but Fu Wan casually placed the dried goods she had brought on the table.
"These are walnuts and peanuts sent by my uncle's family. You can have some when you have time. There are also apples to supplement your vitamins."
Feng Ji could tell at a glance that the child had spent a lot of money. "Take the apples, but leave the walnuts and peanuts for me."
"I don't like this kind of apple, you can take it home and eat it yourself."
He didn't reject the apple because it was expensive.
Fu Wan could tell what he was thinking at a glance, so she couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention.
"Alright, old man, leave the things here. I'll come see you again in a couple of days."
It's getting late, I have to go back.
After Fu Wan finished speaking, she was about to walk out with Fang Min when Feng Ji hurriedly called out to her, "Wait!"
After saying that, he took out a bag of things from the drawer.
“Take this thing with you. It’s all foreign stuff that other people gave me. I can’t get used to it at all.”
Fu Wan opened it and saw that it was actually chocolate.
Fu Wan wondered who had given the old man the chocolate, but she could already picture the old man frowning as he ate it.
"Okay, then I'll take it with me."
Feng Ji waved his hand impatiently, and Fu Wan then left with Fang Min.
When the two returned home, Fu Wan asked Fang Min to take two more New Year's gifts back with her, one for herself and one for Fu Qing.
Fang Min wanted to refuse, but she couldn't persuade Fu Wan, so she had no choice but to push the things back in a wheelbarrow.
Even though she ate out at a restaurant at noon, Fu Wan still enjoyed her dinner. Ye Xiaocui somehow managed to get some sea hemp thread and made a basket of fragrant sea hemp thread buns.
At this moment, Wang Zhaodi had lost her appetite.
As expected, she couldn't hide the fact that she had gotten five yuan from Old Lady Wang.
Although Old Lady Wang took the money, she was generous enough to go to Fu Dazhuang's place and buy half a pound of chopped pork with eight parts fat and two parts lean.
Besides rendering a large bowl of lard, I also stewed a pot of pork cracklings with cabbage.
Grandma Wang specifically chose the meat sandwiches, eating them with gusto and her mouth was dripping with oil.
Of course, she also noticed her daughter-in-law's absent-mindedness and assumed that she was thinking about the five yuan she had taken.
Grandma Wang pursed her lips, then lovingly placed a full chopstickful of cabbage and two slices of meat into Wang Zhaodi's bowl.
"Zhaodi, eat more. Don't worry, I'll definitely buy more meat for the New Year, and you can have more to eat later."
Wang Zhaodi was somewhat flattered; when had her mother-in-law ever been so kind to her?
He even put food on her plate!
"Thank you, Mom. I...I'm eating!"
Wang Zhaodi put a piece of food into her mouth. Fu Lao Er stood beside her without saying a word. After decades of marriage, he could tell at a glance what Wang Zhaodi was thinking.
She was still thinking about burning paper money at Boss Fu's mother's grave!
