Wu Lili stared blankly at Feng Chao, then got up and walked out.
When the two walked in, the educated youth in the meeting room fell silent instantly.
The group turned to look at the two of them, and the educated youth who had shared a room with Wu Lili stood up and spoke.
"We'll leave right away so as not to delay Teacher Feng's conversation with Wu Zhiqing!"
Feng Chao quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, I'll be done soon, it won't take up too much of your time."
The group stopped moving; everyone wants to hear gossip.
The work points verification was quick, taking less than three minutes, and Feng Chao got up to leave.
"I'll be leaving now, so as not to disturb you comrades any longer."
He left cleanly and decisively, seemingly without a trace of regret.
The next morning, Gu Shi took Lin Qingyu to deliver the goods again.
This was the last delivery. I went there several times before and after, but I couldn't go because it rained a few days ago.
The person in charge from last time was already there waiting.
"Hey! Little Gu, you're here pretty early!"
The man grinned and stroked his small tuft of beard, giving off an unpleasant vibe.
Gu Shi simply nodded and said, "It'll be all ready today."
The man with the mustache chuckled, "Very good, very good. I just took a look, and the goods you brought are all of good quality. Not bad, not bad!"
Those in this line of work rarely inquire about other people's sources of goods, especially for large quantities.
Otherwise, it would be a major taboo, and if word got out, the boss would never be able to receive goods from anyone else again.
Therefore, Gu Shicai felt relatively confident in selling this batch of goods.
After the two finished unloading the goods, the man with the mustache checked them again to make sure everything was in order, and then he happily took out the remaining payment.
"Cash on delivery, Xiao Gu, please check."
Gu Shi took it, glanced at it, and then handed it directly to Lin Qingyu, saying, "Count them."
Then he continued talking to the man with the mustache.
Lin Qingyu didn't hear what the two said; she was busy counting the money.
"Eight thousand yuan in total, isn't that too much?"
Holding the money in her hand, she looked at the grinning man with the mustache and glanced at Gu Shi.
Gu Shi took the money from Lin Qingyu's hand, pulled out ten bills, and handed them to the man with the mustache with both hands.
"We agreed on 12,000 yuan, I can't take advantage of this."
Although the mustache still had that same smiling face, his tone was clearly different.
"It's not a lot of money, it's from the boss, just take it!"
"Uncle Wang, please thank the boss for me. I appreciate your kindness, but I can't take the money."
Gu Shi was very firm, so the man with the mustache suppressed his smile and took the thousand yuan from Gu Shi's hand.
"Since you are so honest, I won't force you. However, if there are more good products like this in the future, the boss will still be willing to cooperate with you."
After saying that, the man with the mustache made an excuse and left; there was no need for him to get involved in anything else.
Lin Qingyu guessed that this person must have been trying to probe Gu Shi's intentions, but things turned out this way.
The two drove the oxcart home. On the way, Lin Qingyu leaned close to Gu Shi's ear and asked him a question.
"Isn't this a bad thing to do? After all, you're still working in the black market, and you're just refusing your boss like this."
Gu Shi didn't want Lin Qingyu to overthink things, so he told her directly, "I won't be in the black market anymore, so you don't need to worry about it."
"Huh? Why? Is it because of me...?"
"It has nothing to do with you. I never intended to continue working there. I have a plan, and I'll tell you about it later."
Lin Qingyu didn't ask any more questions. Maybe the person came today to ask about Gu Shi's attitude, but she ended up making things like this.
After returning home, the two took out the money in their hands and counted it.
The total is 15,735.68 yuan, excluding other tickets.
This is quite a lot of money.
Gu Shi wanted to use the money to buy a house in the county, preferably one facing the street, which could be used as a shop.
Although the current policies are not very good, he has a feeling that the policies will change in the near future.
If the shop is in a good location, it will definitely be able to make a sale.
It must be said that Gu Shi was quite shrewd in this regard, but he didn't tell Lin Qingyu that much.
"Qingyu, I'm planning to buy a house in the county town first. What do you think?"
Lin Qingyu was taken aback. It wasn't that she hadn't considered developing her career in the county town, but the timing wasn't right.
Then she smiled and replied to Gu Shi, "Sure, I'll support whatever you do."
Gu Shi felt a warm glow in his heart. As long as Lin Qingyu treated him even slightly well, he wanted to give her even more.
He had already inquired in the county town and found a place that was not only in a good location but also reasonably priced.
It's just a street away from the department store. Because that family was in a hurry to go abroad, they wanted to sell all their houses together.
So the price isn't high. It's a two-storey street-facing shop with a small courtyard in the back, where people can live and grow some vegetables.
It couldn't be more perfect.
The house is over 200 square meters in total, and the shop is about 70 or 80 square meters. It's very spacious, but we can't do business there now.
They're asking for 8,000 yuan, but there's still room for negotiation.
After Gu Shi finished telling Lin Qingyu these things, Lin Qingyu was eager to try it out, as she was an expert at bargaining.
Then she remembered that she hadn't shown Gu Shi around her space yet, so she pulled him into the inner room.
After the two went inside, Lin Qingyu pushed open the supermarket door and glanced around as usual, but the space didn't seem to have been upgraded.
She wasn't disappointed, and instead took Gu Shi for a stroll.
"Look, I love this peach the most, it's delicious."
As Lin Qingyu spoke, she took the large, crisp peach and walked to the water pipe, where she washed one for Gu Shi.
It's strange, I don't know where the water in the space comes from.
However, she didn't care about what she didn't understand, and the two of them ate peaches and browsed through the shops.
Upon entering the clothing store, Gu Shi suddenly stopped in front of a shelf and remained motionless.
Lin Qingyu walked ahead and, not seeing Gu Shi following, turned around to look for him.
He stood motionless in front of a dress.
It was a long red dress with a slight fishtail design, giving it a formal, evening gown feel.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Shi glanced at her and said sincerely, "You would look really good in that!"
Lin Qingyu looked at the dress again; it was very beautiful.
However, it was a dress she wouldn't have dared to look at in her past life. Back then, she was quite insecure, and she was too embarrassed to even look at slightly nicer clothes.
Not to mention such a beautiful dress; back then, she only wore plaid shirts and sweatpants, and didn't even own a pair of jeans.
She was somewhat saddened at this moment. She didn't go to take it, but just spoke to Gu Shi.
"I don't want to wear it now, but I'll wear it for you later!"
