The owner of the water station seemed to hear that Su Jianyue didn't seem to be joking with him.
His attitude suddenly became serious.
"Then let's add WeChat first. Tell me your address. I don't have so much stock at the moment. I will definitely deliver the goods to you by 5pm tomorrow at the latest. Is that okay with you?"
Su Jianyue's flight is at 8 o'clock the day after tomorrow, flying to Haicheng to shoot a lotion commercial.
There's still enough time.
Su Jianyue nodded, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, boss!"
After hanging up the phone, Su Jianyue received a notification tone on WeChat for adding a friend.
After Su Jianyue's application was approved, the owner of the water station sent Su Jianyue a small emoticon with both hands clasped together.
Su Jianyue sent her home address and received an OK gesture.
Then, a voice message came.
...
...
- Please pay me a deposit of one thousand yuan first. The bottled water will arrive tomorrow and I will deliver it to you. After you order the goods, you can pay the balance.
This boss is quite nice!
Su Jianyue replied with an OK gesture, then transferred one thousand yuan and noted "deposit for bottled water".
Only after the message "Payment Received" appeared did Su Jianyue start the next task.
Buy food.
Compressed biscuits are the first choice.
Su Jianyue was afraid to place an order online because by the time she went to Haicheng, the goods had not arrived yet.
After thinking about it, she simply sent a WeChat call to the owner of the supermarket at the entrance of the community.
Su Jianyue has lived in this community for four years. She often buys things at the Xuri Tobacco and Liquor Supermarket and has become familiar with the owner of the supermarket.
The proprietress’s surname is Xia. She looks chubby and a little cute.
He is a kind person, only eight years older than Su Jianyue, and very easy to get along with.
Every day when I have free time in the store, I work part-time writing novels online.
From time to time, he would exchange ideas and concepts with Su Jianyue.
Sometimes, they would make plans to go out for a midnight snack together.
The relationship is extremely good.
After a while, the call was answered.
There was a notification tone from the other end of the phone indicating that the payment was successfully received.
Su Jianyue knew she was busy, so she didn't rush to speak.
Until there was a rustling sound coming from the other side.
Then, a pleasant female voice was heard.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
Su Jianyue then spoke, "Xia Xia, do you sell compressed biscuits in your store?"
Xia Qianqian took a look at the box of compressed biscuits that had just arrived. Isn’t this a coincidence?
"Yes, a box of goods just arrived, 900 compressed biscuits, packed in a tin box, one box is ten kilograms, 150 yuan, do you want some?"
This was originally prepared for a mountain climbing team leader, but the team leader sprained his ankle yesterday and said he would come back to pick up the goods in a few days.
Xia Qianqian thought that if Su Jianyue wanted it, she would give this box to Su Jianyue first, and then order another box from the mountaineering team leader.
Anyway, he's not in a hurry to use it.
"I might need a lot. Can you help me get some more?"
Xia Qianqian was puzzled: "How much do you want?"
"Let's start with... one hundred boxes!"
Xia Qianqian: “!!!”
"Did you hear any rumors?"
This nonsensical question confused Su Jianyue.
"What's that rumor?"
"Is the end of the world coming, and you got the news in advance, so you started secretly stockpiling goods?"
Who would want so many compressed biscuits at one time?
As expected of a novelist, he has a rich imagination.
Su Jianyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Have you been obsessed with writing novels recently?"
Xia Qianqian thought about how she had been busy editing articles recently and felt dizzy, so she nodded subconsciously.
She didn't care whether Su Jianyue on the other end of the phone could see her movements.
"Don't worry, if the end of the world comes, I will definitely inform you in advance!"
Xia Qianqian chuckled.
“That’s more like it!”
"Then, can you deliver one hundred boxes of compressed biscuits to my house by the day after tomorrow at the latest?"
"Of course."
Xia Qianqian promised.
Hang up the phone.
Su Jianyue looked at the balance in her WeChat account. In just ten minutes, it had dropped by half.
Then he called Ji Mengqiu again.
Xiao Yuqi kept his word. Before leaving, he moved all the 1,000 taels of gold to her bedroom.
Su Jianyue didn't have much cash.
The video said that hundreds of thousands of people would suffer from this drought.
The bottled water and compressed biscuits she bought seemed to be a lot.
But the number of people affected is much greater.
By then, I don’t know if anyone can get a bite.
She has to prepare early.
Ji Mengqiu opened a jewelry processing workshop.
From time to time, they would purchase raw materials such as gold, gemstones, jade and jadeite, process them into jewellery, and after the finished products were made, they would sell them in jewellery stores.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the carpenter and his apprentice finished their work.
Su Jianyue packed five gold bars, locked all the doors and windows in the house, and then drove to Ji Mengqiu's studio.
Ji Mengqiu is Mr. Ji’s granddaughter.
He is also the only friend Su Jianyue made after returning to the Su family.
Ji Mengqiu has an older brother, so the matter of inheriting the family business will not fall on her.
Therefore, from childhood to adulthood, Ji Mengqiu has been able to do what she likes without any scruples.
For example, designing jewelry and making jewelry.
Her studio is specially used to receive high-end customers who require private customization.
Before Su Jianyue came, Ji Mengqiu had just seen off a noble lady.
Because of the support of the Ji family, Ji Mengqiu's studio has been doing good business since its establishment.
Su Jianyue wore a hat, mask and sunglasses, and sneaked into the house holding her bag.
Ji Mengqiu almost thought that a robber had come to her studio.
"Why are you sneaking around?"
After recognizing the person as Su Jianyue, Ji Mengqiu asked him a soul-searching question.
Su Jianyue: “…”
"It doesn't matter. Just check the goods for me. If you like them, I'll sell them to you."
Before Su Jianyue, she had already talked to Ji Mengqiu on the phone.
Ji Mengqiu knew why Su Jianyue came.
So she took her time.
Watching Su Jianyue put down the heavy backpack that she was holding tightly in her arms.
Unzip it and take out the gold bar.
One.
Two.
…
Five roots.
Ji Mengqiu's eyes grew bigger and bigger, like copper bells.
She subconsciously slammed the office door shut and locked it.
"You robbed a bank?"
Oh my God, if it was someone else who took out so many gold bars at once, Ji Mengqiu wouldn’t be so nervous.
"What? Didn't I tell you on the phone? It's a friend of mine who asked me to use my connections to help him sell it. He needs money right now and can't make ends meet!"
"How come I didn't know you had such a friend?"
Out of vigilance, Ji Mengqiu couldn't help but ask: "Is that a legitimate friend? Is this thing from a legitimate source? Is there a quality inspection certificate? Receipt? Or an invoice to prove the source? Don't let others use you as a gun. I tell you, in a normal criminal case, your link is the one with the heaviest sentence!"
Su Jianyue: “…”
