"Wait a moment, I'm going to get something."
As Sang Jueqian spoke, he quickly ran to the shelf where the general merchandise was placed and took down two sets of walkie-talkies from it.
Although today is Sang Jueqian's first day as the manager of a grocery store, the Sang family grocery store has been run for decades by her grandfather Sang Weimin. The store sells a wide variety of items and is a true grocery store.
Sang Jueqian saw these two sets of walkie-talkies when he was counting the goods. He felt strange at the time. Who would come to the grocery store in the ancient city to buy walkie-talkies? He was afraid that these things would not be sold.
But now it seems that everything is destined by heaven!
Sang Jueqian took the two walkie-talkies back to the window and turned them on to show Li Junyan.
"This thing is called a walkie-talkie. It doesn't have as many functions as the phone I just used, but if you just want to talk long distance, it should be fine."
Thinking of the influence of various environmental factors, Sang Jueqian added, "The environment over there is better, so maybe it can be used at a longer distance. But the specific distance, you can only find someone to experiment with yourself. I will teach you how to use it first."
Li Junyan looked at Sang Jueqian with burning eyes, his breathing became much lighter, and he listened carefully to Sang Jueqian's explanation.
The use of walkie-talkies is simple, and Li Junyan has a strong ability to accept new things. It only took him ten minutes to learn how to use it.
Sang Jueqian handed him the walkie-talkie and said, "Try to see if it works on your end first. If it works, I'll find a way to help you solve the charging problem."
Li Junyan took it with both hands, his expression extremely solemn, "Thank you, young lady."
"No need." Sang Jueqian had just said these two words when the door of the grocery store was opened from the outside. The person standing at the door said loudly, "Is the boss here? We are here to deliver the goods."
"I'm here." Sang Jueqian responded loudly, gave Li Junyan a look, and then walked towards the door.
Outside the grocery store, there were two three-wheeled motorcycles parked, and the compartments of each vehicle were piled high with cardboard boxes.
"The road is too narrow for large trucks to get in, so I had to find a few tricycles to pull the goods over."
Sang Jue smiled gently, "Thank you for your hard work."
She originally wanted to get them some water, but then she remembered that all the water in the grocery store had been given to Li Junyan.
Fortunately, she didn't say it out loud, otherwise she would have dug her toes into the ground in embarrassment.
Sang Jueqian opened the door of the grocery store and said, "Just stack the things in the empty space in front of the counter."
"Okay!"
The two men agreed and started moving boxes into the grocery store.
There were a total of forty boxes of rice on the two tricycles, with five bags in each box and twenty kilograms in each bag, which was exactly four thousand kilograms.
The wholesale price of a bag of rice is 35 yuan, and the total cost of 4,000 kilograms is 7,000 yuan.
In addition to 4,000 kilograms of rice, Sang Jueqian also ordered 4,000 kilograms of flour, totaling 10,800 yuan; and 4,000 kilograms of millet, totaling 20,000 yuan.
It’s not that Sang Jueqian didn’t want to order more, but the space in the grocery store was limited. After all these things were moved in, there was no room left in the store, and Sang Jueqian had to walk sideways.
Just at this time, drinks, snacks, instant noodles and mineral water were also delivered.
Sang felt that she could only give them more money to ask them to help her dismantle the store and help her sort all the things on the shelves and in the freezer.
By the time everything was in place, it was already dark.
Several suppliers looked at the rice and flour piled up in the store and were surprised. "Boss Sang, why are you buying so much rice and flour? Your store can't even store it all!"
Sang Jueqian's smile remained unchanged. "I bought this for someone else and will take it away tonight."
"So that's how it is. Do you need us to stay and help?"
"No, no!" Sang Jueqian quickly refused. "Thank you for your hard work today. I gave you red envelopes. Everyone, go back and rest!"
They were just being polite, but when they heard Sang Jueqian's refusal, they left without any hesitation.
Watching them drive away from the street on their tricycle, Sang Jueqian quickly closed the door of the grocery store and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But when he saw the grocery store piled high with things, the breath Sang Jueqian had just exhaled became stuck in his chest again.
If we want to operate normally tomorrow, we must hand over all these things to Li Junyan tonight.
This is a big project!
Just as Sang Jueqian was about to roll up his sleeves and work hard, he heard Li Junyan's voice.
"Miss Sang! Are you still there?"
The tall box blocked the counter and the window, and Li Junyan on the other side of the window could no longer see Sang Jueqian.
"I am here."
As Sang Jueqian spoke, he leaned sideways and walked towards the counter.
One afternoon, the shop door was wide open and all the heat rushed in. Sweat soaked Sang Jueqian's hair, her cheeks were flushed, and the tip of her nose was covered with crystal beads of sweat.
"What's wrong?" Sang Jueqian asked.
Li Junyan's eyes were dark, with suppressed heartache in them. "You've been busy all afternoon, Miss Sang, take a rest!"
"I'm not tired." Sang Jueqian said honestly, "I'm not working. The shop door is just open and the heat is coming in. It's just a little hot. It will be fine after the temperature drops. What did you call me for?
Have you tried the walkie-talkie? Does it work? What's the range?"
"I've tried it, and it works! Xu San is outside the city with his walkie-talkie, and I can still hear his voice clearly. It's getting late, so I asked him to come back and try again tomorrow."
"That's perfect. Give them to me later and I'll help you charge them."
"Charging?" Li Junyan looked puzzled. "What is that?"
"That's it..." Sang Jueqian frowned slightly, thinking about how to explain it in a simple and understandable way. "It's like a kerosene lamp. It can only burn if kerosene is added. A walkie-talkie can only be used if it is charged. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Yes." Li Junyan nodded. "Is charging only possible at your place?"
"You can do it on your side, but you have to wait."
"Waiting for what?"
"Wait for me to buy you some solar panels."
Li Junyan's face was filled with confusion. "What are solar panels?"
