I already said the train was at 7 o'clock, so why did these two leave at 4 o'clock?
But if you put yourself in her shoes, if it were Fu Ming and Fu Liang's train at 7 o'clock, given the distance from Longhai Railway Station to Fujia Village, Fu Wan would have to leave no later than 5 o'clock.
Oh well, how can you be so calculating with family? I brought them gifts too!
Fu Wan opened the passenger door and strode inside.
"Hey, it's still the most comfortable ride in my own car."
She rubbed her neck. Damn it, after a whole night on the train, she felt like she'd been beaten up; her back and waist ached.
Fu Ming handed over a piece of brown paper, saying, "Have something to eat first. Your parents caught another rabbit this morning, so there will definitely be a big meal when we get back at noon."
Thinking about Ye Xiaocui's cooking skills, Fu Wan unconsciously swallowed.
We won't be able to eat for a while, so let's just have two steamed buns to tide us over for now.
Fu Ming bought the steamed buns near the train station. One was a meat bun and the other a seaweed bun. Although they weren't as delicious as the ones Ye Xiaocui made herself, Fu Wan, who hadn't had a home-cooked meal for almost a week, devoured both in no time.
Fang Min and Bai Qianzhou were in similar situations, and Fu Ming couldn't help but tease them when he saw them like that.
"Tsk, I knew you went to the port city, but if I didn't know, I would have thought you went to some remote mountain village to do hard labor."
"What, is the food in Hong Kong not good?"
Fu Wan was drinking soy milk when she heard this and rolled her eyes at him.
Bai Qianzhou took the flatbread from Fu Liang and explained, "It's not that the food in Hong Kong is bad, but the taste of home is incomparable."
"Yes, that makes sense!"
Fang Min nodded repeatedly. She wasn't good at saying nice things; she just felt that the seaweed buns in her hand were much tastier than the pineapple buns and char siu buns in Hong Kong.
Seeing this, Fu Liang didn't hide his curiosity and asked, "Hey, how was your trip to Hong Kong? Was it fun?"
"That's fun! Their economy is definitely ahead of ours in the mainland. Brother Liang, you'll see for yourself when you have the chance."
Fu Wan replied, and Fu Ming shook his head, "Tch, we need to get permits to go there, what a hassle. Humph, we should wait until after the return to China, otherwise those people will definitely treat us like country bumpkins!"
Fu Wan chuckled upon hearing this, "If you go there again in the future, people might still think you're a country bumpkin."
Fu Ming pretended to be angry and glared at Fu Wan.
"So, does that mean you were looked down upon on your trip? Seriously, did those people from Hong Kong bully you?"
Damn it, if someone bullies him, he won't be able to get revenge.
"There was no bullying. After all, Mr. He, who invited me, has some influence in Hong Kong. Those people just talked a lot."
At this point, Fu Wan suddenly remembered something and looked at Fu Ming and Fu Liang mysteriously.
"Hehe, on my first day in Hong Kong, I made a bet with someone and accidentally won a big thing. Do you want to guess what it is?"
After saying that, she gave Bai Qianzhou and Fang Min a wink, signaling them to be quiet.
A hint of a smile flashed in Bai Qianzhou's eyes. It wasn't that he was confident, but Fu Ming and Fu Liang definitely wouldn't have guessed.
Sure enough, Fu Liang stroked his chin and guessed, "You won money?"
Fu Wan held up her finger and shook it, "No!"
"Could it be a fish? A fishing rod? A small yellow croaker?"
Fu Ming went all out, making wild guesses.
"Neither!"
Fu Wan smiled smugly, while Fang Min covered her face and chuckled.
"Oh dear, Wan, hurry up and tell me, this is making me lose all interest in driving."
Fu Ming is an impatient person and can't stand these guessing games, especially since he's driving. If they don't keep him in suspense, it'll be really annoying.
Seeing this, Fu Wan could only wave her hand generously.
"Haha, I'll tell you then, I won a speedboat!"
"A speedboat? Really?!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Liang immediately sat up straight, but considering the size of the speedboat, he instinctively turned to look at the luggage in the trunk.
"Ah Wan, you're not talking about those speedboat toys that kids play with, are you?!"
Fu Ming glanced at the rearview mirror and said in a cheeky tone, "Fu Wan is speechless."
"I'm not just doing this for fun, betting with someone to win a toy."
Upon hearing this, Fu Ming and Fu Liang couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"So you actually brought back a speedboat?"
"The kind that can operate at sea?"
Where is that speedboat now?
Fu Wan nodded calmly, "Yes, it's sailing at sea. It's more real than real gold. Boss He has arranged for sea freight, so it should arrive in our waters in a while."
Seeing that Fu Wan didn't seem to be joking, and that Bai Qianzhou and Fang Min behind her didn't object, Fu Ming and Fu Liang finally accepted the reality.
What followed was immense pride.
Fu Ming excitedly slapped the steering wheel.
Damn it, no wonder she's his sister. She went out and brought back a speedboat. That's amazing!
"Ah Wan, Ah Wan, when the speedboat comes back, can I drive it?"
Fu Ming turned to ask with a fawning smile, and Fu Liang nodded vigorously in agreement.
"I want to drive one too, just let me drive it around!"
Oh, it's a speedboat! They've only seen those enemy agents sailing it before.
After the enemy agent was captured, the speedboat was also taken away by the maritime police and comrades from the camp.
God knows how much they coveted those big speedboats back then.
How cool and magnificent!
Fu Wan knew exactly what they were thinking. In fact, if the county shipyard didn't already have speedboats, she would have bought them long ago.
Sometimes having a speedboat at sea is very convenient.
At least when I go fishing at sea, I shouldn't need to use a kayak.
"No problem, once the speedboat arrives, you can take it out for a spin!"
"Haha, that's great! Now I have something to look forward to!"
Fu Ming was grinning from ear to ear.
Looking at the familiar road ahead, Fu Wan suddenly remembered her phone call with Boss Fu the day before.
"Brother, I heard from Dad that you're buying dried fish. What's going on? Are you making any money?"
Fu Liang looked a little embarrassed when this was mentioned.
Fu Ming nodded smugly, "It's making a bit of money. You remember Sun Youcai, right? The kid who sold bird's nests before. Now his business is all over the country."
He accepts dried mackerel, dried cuttlefish, and dried shrimp.
How much do you buy it for per pound? How much profit do you make?
"Dried mackerel is three yuan a pound, dried cuttlefish is eight yuan, and dried shrimp depends on the variety and size; palm-sized ones are five yuan a pound."
"As for how much profit we make, we'll probably make about 50 cents per pound!"
Fu Ming told Fu Wan everything in detail. He never hid such things from her. Moreover, if it weren't for the bird's nest, they wouldn't have known Sun Youcai.
Fu Wan raised an eyebrow, "Five cents?"
Fu Liang and Fu Ming nodded in unison, "Yes, about that number."
From the tone of Fu Wan's voice, Fu Ming knew that she was dissatisfied with the low earnings.
"Hey Wan, don't underestimate five cents. With so many kilograms, you can make quite a bit of money!"
