After they left, Xia Youyou was taken to the factory. Gu Aiguo found a few workers and asked them to follow Xia Youyou to learn how to make preserved fruits. He went to make a phone call, find the factory director, and contact the bank to withdraw money.
Xia Youyou explained while performing the movements.
"Mangoes need to be peeled, but be aware that some people are allergic to them. If you feel itchy while peeling, stop immediately. This is normal. Those who are allergic to mangoes can be transferred to other work areas."
"Dragon fruit needs to be sliced and either sun-dried or oven-dried like the others. All of these are acceptable."
“Longan just needs to be peeled, pitted, and sun-dried.”
She worked diligently in the factory, teaching people how to make dried and preserved fruits, while the three men had already joined the transport team.
Xiao Haiqi Siling walked up to the person in charge, greeted them, and explained his purpose.
After paying some rent and deposit, the three of them drove out of the transport team in three trucks.
They drove all the way to where they landed last night, and after making sure that there was no one there, they climbed onto the back of the truck and filled it with fruit.
The three vehicles are the largest in the transport fleet and can carry 8 tons of cargo.
There were not enough lychees, so only one truck was loaded. The other two trucks were loaded with one mango and one longan.
Three trucks, loaded with fruits, headed straight to the factory.
Half an hour later, the old man opened the gate and let three large trucks through.
Looking at the three carts of fruit behind him, the old man couldn't help but be amazed. They were shipped from Guangzhou, and they were still so fresh.
The people inside heard the noise and hurried out to watch the fun.
The car stopped in the factory yard and the three of them opened the door and got out at the same time.
Qi Siling had already seen the little girl who followed out, and regardless of everyone's gaze on him, he went straight to her.
He took her freshly washed hands and took out a handkerchief to help her dry them.
"How is it? Are you tired?"
Xia Youyou shook her head, "How much did you install?"
"A car weighs about 8 tons, but I don't know the exact amount."
After calculating in her mind, Xia Youyou nodded with satisfaction. This trip would cost five thousand yuan, which was fine.
Gu Aiguo had already called the factory director over, and when the two of them emerged from the office, they saw three trucks parked in the yard. They marveled at the three men's skill, but seeing the license plates, knowing they were from this city, they assumed they had been privately shipped from Guangzhou.
Cao An and his companions didn't care what they thought. Buying and selling were free now, so there was no point in reporting.
Xiao Hai stepped forward to shake hands with the factory director and explained the situation to Gu Aiguo.
"The truck is 8 tons. See if it's enough. If not, we can load more."
The factory manager looked at him in surprise, feeling somewhat skeptical. However, upon seeing the truck full of fresh fruits, he put his doubts aside. If it was from a transport team, it wouldn't be that suspicious.
Arrange people to unload the truck and weigh it.
50,000 jin!
The factory manager settled the payment on the spot and asked them to delay it twice more.
There are no oranges or dragon fruits yet, and I'll add some longans. These are sweet and will definitely sell well after being made into dried fruits.
So the three of them worked for a whole day, transporting two trucks of longan, two trucks of oranges, one truck of dragon fruit, and one truck of mangoes.
Got 15,000.
After saying goodbye to the factory director and manager who warmly wanted to invite him to dinner, he drove the truck straight out of the factory.
Xia Youyou looked at the great unity under her feet and felt a little dreamy.
"Brother Qi, is this money so easy to make?" Then why does she need to run a small supermarket or a guesthouse? Wouldn't it be better for her to just fly around and collect fruits?
"Fruits are seasonal, and there isn't much fruit left at this time of year, now that autumn has arrived."
After thinking about it, Xia Youyou said no more.
"Shall we go back tonight?"
Qi Siling glanced at the sky and said, "It's still early. Let's return the car first and go to discuss it with your brother last night. Let's see what he says."
I returned the car to the transport team, got my deposit back, and the rental fee was only thirty yuan.
The four of them got back on the bicycles left with the transport team and rode back to the other side of the mountain in a hurry.
Cao An was a little excited along the way.
He knew that this was a quick way to make money. What would happen if he went to other provinces and cities to get some fruits and resell them in the north?
It was the end of the year, and everyone was celebrating the Lunar New Year. The manager said that apples in Hai City were selling for 42 cents, while apples in Beijing were only 1 cent.
Several people climbed up the mountain again, and Xia Youyou was carried up by Cao An.
No matter how she refused, Cao An insisted on carrying her on his back. The main reason was that he was so excited that he had to let out all his energy.
When they got there, he was reluctant to put her down and carried her around for a few circles, causing Xia Youyou's screams to resound throughout the valley.
Qi Siling was afraid that she could not hold on firmly, so she quickly stopped the crazy Cao An.
"Alright! Don't scare her!"
He snatched the little girl back into his arms and glared at Cao An with dissatisfaction.
Cao An had no temper and even reached out to pinch the face of the person in his arms.
“…”
The three of them looked at him speechlessly. After all, he was usually a fierce man, but now he was behaving like a child.
Xia Youyou couldn't stand him anymore, so she turned and hid in Qi Siling's arms, and asked in a muffled voice, "Are we going back?"
"No," Cao An said without hesitation. "I want to go to other provinces to see the fruits and buy seafood along the coast."
Several people were speechless, "You're not going to class?"
"Ask for leave! Call back and ask mom to ask for leave for us."
Xia Youyou turned around and pulled Qi Siling away, and Xiao Hai followed.
Leaving him with three speechless backs.
Cao An didn't give up and followed Xia Youyou to sit down. "I'm serious," he said seriously. "I know there are fishermen along the coast who dry seafood in exchange for food. We can go to Yangcheng along the way and then turn to Xi Province. There's sugarcane there in season, and sugarcane is used to make brown sugar. We can also sell it to factories in Beijing. The oranges in Jiang Province are all in season."
Everyone he talked about was moved.
Who doesn't want to make quick money? And they have flying machines, which is very convenient. Once they make money, they can buy the factory. How far can a machinery factory be?
"Next week?" Xia Youyou still hesitated. Her work in the laboratory was not yet completed.
"It's just two days, plus tomorrow it will be three days. If we go out once, we won't have to come out again for a long time."
Qi Siling glanced at him and finally spoke. "Be good and listen to your brother."
Okay, seeing Xiao Hai looking at her with hope, Xia Youyou compromised.
With Xia Youyou's permission, Cao An opened the map, clicked on a coastal city, calculated the distance, and took off directly from the valley in the evening when everyone was preparing to go home.
They didn't care whether others would see it or not. The situation was indeed urgent and they didn't have much time.
The sky in the evening is different from that at night.
This time they could also see the sun setting in the sky and thick clouds.
Xiao Hai placed his hand on the glass and said, "It would be nice if I could just reach out and touch it."
These childish words made Xia Youyou laugh, "I'll take you skydiving from 20,000 meters and let you touch the clouds."
"Hehe, let's not do that." He was just talking, don't take it seriously.
