"Su Ran happened to know this place, so we asked her to help us find it."
After Wen Yue gave a brief explanation, Fu Wan suddenly realized that there were just too many customers at the trade fair, and Fu Wan didn't quite remember if Wen Yue was among them.
"So you're looking for me..."
Fu Wan was a little confused because their product packaging did have the factory address and contact number. If Wen Yue and the others were there to place an order, there was no need for them to travel all the way to Fu Family Village.
"Haha, Wan, those two came here for sea fishing. They love fishing the most!"
Wen Yue and Wang Shuo smiled sheepishly. Wen Yue continued, "Hehe, to be honest, Wang Shuo and I just got married and were thinking about where to go for our honeymoon. There weren't many places around Shanghai, so we thought of the idea of going to sea that you mentioned at the trade fair..."
So that's how it is. Fu Wan finally understood why these two comrades had come.
"I see. Congratulations, comrades. Welcome to Fujia Village."
Fu Wan smiled broadly. She had been talking to Fu Ming about tourists yesterday, and she didn't expect that two of them would arrive today, and they were actually from Shanghai.
Choosing this place for your honeymoon is a great idea!
"Haha, Comrade Fu, I'm really sorry, we came without giving any prior notice."
Wang Shuo smiled generously, then pointed towards the pier and got straight to the point: "Let's not beat around the bush, Comrade Fu. When we came over just now, we saw boats on the beach. I'd like to ask if we can charter one for a fishing trip?"
Wen Yue nodded, and fearing that Fu Wan might misunderstand, she added, "Comrade Fu, we've never gone out to sea fishing before. How much do you charge for chartering a boat out to sea?"
Fu Wan shook her head upon hearing this and replied with a smile, "Comrades, you are Su Ran's friends. To be honest, I'm also taking my family out to sea today. If you don't mind, why don't you come along? I won't charge you this time."
Wow, really?
Wen Yue was overjoyed upon hearing this, but then felt a little embarrassed.
"Comrade Fu, it's not good to not charge you. Your boat also needs fuel to operate!"
Please charge me a little, otherwise I'll be too embarrassed to come again next time.
Fu Wan smiled and waved her hand generously.
"It won't cost much. You've just gotten married, so consider this my blessing. If you really want to give something, just leave some wedding candy."
Also, you can call me Awan, just like Su Ran does. Come on, I'll take you to the docks.
Upon hearing Fu Wan's words, Wen Yue and Wang Shuo exchanged a glance, followed by a look of disbelief.
They used to have a good relationship with Su Ran, but after graduating from university and starting work, they haven't been in touch for several years.
They only knew that Su Ran chose to return to Longhai City as a reporter after graduation, but they did not expect that Su Ran and Fu Wan had such a good relationship.
No wonder when they approached Su Ran and mentioned they were looking for Comrade Fu at the food factory, Su Ran was certain that Comrade Fu wasn't there and even volunteered to take them to find Fu Wan.
Fu Wan was so generous that she took them out to sea for free, just because of Su Ran. Although Fu Wan didn't want money, the two of them weren't the type to take advantage of others, so they immediately started thinking that besides the wedding candy, they would at least leave Fu Wan some money for the sea trip.
They didn't come empty-handed either; Wang Shuo, Wen Yue, and Su Ran were carrying a total of two cans of malted milk powder, two bundles of peach shortbread, and two large boxes of assorted candies.
But Su Ran bought all these things at the supply and marketing cooperative.
They were wondering why Su Ran bought so many gifts, but now that they saw Fu Wan was being so generous, they understood.
"Wan, should we leave these things at home for now?"
Su Ran raised the things in her hand to Fu Wan, but Fu Wan shook her head. She had just left and didn't want to go back the way she came.
Moreover, Boss Fu and his group have already been waiting at the dock for a while, and if they are delayed any longer, they will start to get anxious.
"No need, just take it on the ship. Su Ran, don't buy it next time. With your meager salary, how many times can you afford to buy it?"
Su Ran smiled mischievously upon hearing this, "Hehe, I got a raise, didn't expect that, did you!"
Well, Fu Wan was immediately amused by her.
Seeing Su Ran's smug look, Fu Wan couldn't help but laugh and speak.
"You got a raise? You seem so happy, does that mean you got a promotion too?"
"No,"
Su Ran subconsciously shook her head, explaining as she followed Fu Wan toward the dock.
"I'm happy because I never expected to have such a big influence over you, that you would take them out to sea for free."
At this point, Su Ran made a special explanation.
"But I didn't bring them here without telling you. I paged you, but you didn't reply. I happened to be on vacation, so I just came over to try my luck."
There are boundaries between people. Su Ran was afraid that bringing people over without prior notice would damage her friendship with Fu Wan.
Fu Wan waved her hand dismissively, saying, "It's nothing, it's just a small matter. I haven't seen you for a while, and I haven't even asked how you've been."
This question made Su Ran sigh, and her smile faded, revealing a hint of weariness.
"Ugh, this is terrible. I'm exhausted these days. This job is inhuman. I have to keep an eye on the hot topics and follow the news reports. I'm so busy that I'm dizzy."
Including yesterday, I've been working overtime for a whole month straight. I just couldn't take it anymore these past two days, so I took this opportunity to come here and rest for a couple of days.
Poor working people.
Fu Wan patted Su Ran's hand sympathetically and comforted her, "It's okay, hard work always pays off."
It's good to be here these past few days; going out to sea, feeling the sea breeze, and really relaxing.
"Yes, that's what I'm planning to do!"
Su Ran nodded emphatically, then glanced at Wang Shuo and Wen Yue, who were already walking ahead impatiently, and whispered teasingly to Fu Wan:
"Hehe, Awan, speaking of which, you really don't charge them? I heard from my colleagues that chartering a boat for a sea trip is not cheap. You just waived the fee for them like this?"
They came from Shanghai, and they came with money!
Fu Wan glanced at her and said with amusement, "Oh dear, if I charge you for the friend you brought, wouldn't that be greedy?"
They happened to be the first couple to visit our village, so free admission is fine. I hope they have a great time and recommend us to others.
"publicity?"
Su Ran reacted quickly, "Your village is going to develop tourism?"
"No, wait, are you going on a trip?"
Fu Wan nodded and pointed in the direction of the hotel in the distance.
"See those buildings with white walls? That's a hotel I built specifically to accommodate tourists. By the way, it's also called a guesthouse."
They arrived a little early; otherwise, the guesthouse would have been completed in another month.
We can take advantage of the Lunar New Year holiday to relax, and then we can welcome tourists after the holiday.
