The landlady gave Ah Hao a dollar as a token of her gratitude. Yan Ge also took out a dollar and handed it to Ah Hao, saying, "Brother Hao, I really have to thank you."
Ah-hao accepted it without any pressure; it was something he deserved, so why should he feel pressured?
The group returned to the warehouse, and Ah Hao took out his abacus and began to calculate:
One thousand pairs of jeans, two thousand pairs of stirrup pants, two hundred jackets, five hundred batwing shirts, one hundred packs of children's headbands and hair clips, and one thousand pairs each of children's vests and shorts, totaling twenty-nine thousand six hundred yuan.
Yan Jian had already calculated the price of these goods. He took out 29,600 yuan from his bag and handed it to Ahao. Ahao's money-counting movements were really nice. What would take Yan Xiaoqiang an hour to count money would only take Ahao ten minutes.
As expected of someone with a lot of money, his movements were incredibly skilled. Yan Xiaoqiang believed that in the near future, he too would be able to join this ranks.
Ah Hao carefully put the money away, wrote a receipt for Yan Ge with his own name, and said that the goods would be sent to Beijing and Shanghai by train early the next morning.
The two returned to the guesthouse, too exhausted to speak, but Yan Ge still opened his notebook and meticulously recorded the day's expenses, one by one. These were public funds, and there could be no mistakes.
Even a strong farmer like Yan Xiaoqiang felt his back was about to fall apart, and his hands and feet seemed to be out of his control. He saw the bed as if it were his own mother, and without even washing his face, he started snoring as soon as he touched the pillow.
Yan Qiang forced himself to finish writing down the accounts, locked the door, and collapsed onto the bed. Soon after, he started snoring too, though his snoring was much more comical than Yan Xiaoqiang's.
People with things on their minds can't sleep soundly, even if they snore. Sure enough, before dawn, Southwest was already awake, dressed, brushed her teeth and washed her face. By the time Yan Xiaoqiang woke up, Yan Ge had already bought breakfast.
After quickly finishing his food, Yan Xiaoqiang went to find Ah Hao. When he saw Ah Hao, he saw that someone had brought a truck and remarked that this guy was quite young, but his business was already very large.
People who have finished buying goods usually rush to catch a train, so as long as they pay, Ah Hao will take them to the train station, goods and people alike. The individual customers don't have much stuff, at most two or three packages, but Ah Hao can have dozens of packages.
Having successfully found the connection Ye Huixian had made, Yan Ge took out an envelope and handed it over: "This is from my aunt, who asked me to give it to you. She said she would give it to you together with the last one."
The man felt the thickness of the envelope, then stuffed it into his work uniform pocket with satisfaction. He then instructed the others to take the important items to the train station's baggage check-in area: those going to Shanghai should go this way, and those going to Beijing should go that way.
Yan Xiaoqiang was initially worried that the goods might be left behind or lost, but after going through the whole process, he was completely relieved that unless it was intentional, the goods would not be lost.
Since we're at the train station, let's buy our return tickets. This time, it'll be Yan Xiaoqiang's solo trip. We've strictly told him not to bring too much stuff, since trains departing from Huacheng are a bit chaotic.
Looking at the time, the train to Beijing doesn't leave until tomorrow night, so there's still time to buy this floral dress for my wife and mother. Also, Nannan likes the mangoes that Yan Ge brought back last time, so I'll buy some for her too.
Ah Hao's truck hasn't left yet, and Yan Ge is now one of his biggest clients, so he needs to put in some effort to win him over.
"Yan Ge, Uncle, here, here, I'm waiting for you. Let's go back together." Ah Hao ran over as soon as he saw the two of them come out.
Of course, it was great to have a free ride back. The two of them got into the car with Ah Hao: "Ah Hao, can you take me to your warehouse later? I want to buy a few sets of the landlady's clothes from yesterday."
"Sigh, I've already prepared those clothes. They come in small, medium, large, and extra-large sizes. Which size do you want?"
Yan Xiaoqiang has gained experience selling clothes recently. His mother is a small size, his wife is a medium size, and his sister-in-law is also a small size. Chen'er and Nannan definitely don't want these clothes. Oh right, and Chen'er's mother is probably a medium size too. So let's get eight sets, two sets for each person.
Yan Ge thought of Cai Min, but then remembered that Nan Nan had paid for all his money, so he kept his mouth shut. He was better off without a mother like that.
"Ah Hao, do you have any clothes for little girls?" Yan Xiaoqiang asked again.
"The jeans and batwing shirts you stock aren't just for young girls. These are the most fashionable clothes right now. Nobody wears anything else," Ah Hao said proudly.
Oh, then there's no need to buy any. There are thousands of clothes to choose from.
“Yan Ge, Uncle Yan, Uncle Yan is going back to Beijing tomorrow, right? How about I treat you to a bath and massage tonight, and then we can have dinner together to see Uncle Yan off?” Ah Hao finally extended the invitation.
Yan Xiaoqiang nodded. He knew what taking a bath was like, but what about a massage? Why not give it a try?
Back at the warehouse, Yan Xiaoqiang took eight sets of clothes and gave Ahao two hundred yuan. Ahao refused, but Yan Xiaoqiang didn't like it. Even close brothers should keep clear accounts. How could he take someone else's things for nothing? Besides, these were gifts for his own family, so he couldn't just take them for free.
Yan Xiaoqiang then had Yan Ge accompany him to the market, where they found several nice pairs of leather shoes. The shoes sold for 7.65 yuan in the store, but the wholesale price was only 3 yuan a pair. Yan Xiaoqiang bought 22 pairs in one go.
Yan Ge was stunned: "Uncle, who are you buying all this for?"
"My mother's, my wife's, my daughter's and mine, your uncle and aunt, Ai Dang and Chen'er, Chen'er's mother's, the Southwest's, and yours, two pairs each, that's twenty-two pairs." Yan Xiaoqiang rattled off the list in one breath.
Yan Zheng looked at the two shoe boxes in his hands. "My uncle is so kind!" he thought. Suddenly, he remembered that his shoe size was the same as Yan Zheng's. He decided to leave the other pair for Yan Zheng and tell him that his uncle had bought them for him.
Yan Ge found a burlap sack in the warehouse and neatly put all the shoes inside. He also packed eight sets of clothes into small cloth bags and stuffed them into the gaps in the burlap sack. In this way, his uncle only had this burlap sack and one carry-on bag, along with some food, which made things much more convenient when he took the train.
As for the fruit, I'll buy it tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow afternoon I not only need to buy fruit, but also a lot of food for the train. After all, it takes three days to travel from Huacheng to Beijing by train, so I have to prepare some food.
The two carried their sacks and luggage out of the hotel and walked towards their rented room. In the short ten-minute walk, there were already many people who wanted to rent a room. Yan Ge secretly thought he was lucky, otherwise he would still have to stay in the guesthouse, which was much more expensive, two yuan a day, which would cost sixty yuan a month.
