Chen Cheng and Hei Zi both looked at Xu Lai with expectant expressions.
Xu Lai knew that fresh fruits and vegetables must be expensive at this time of year, but she didn't think they were as excited as this middleman.
He wasn't this excited when I sold him so much grain last time!
"Brother Chen, is it really more profitable to do fruit business than to sell grain these days?"
After all, food is a necessity, and while fruit can improve the quality of life, you won't die if you don't eat it when conditions are limited.
People really will die without food!
"Hey sis, we're already in this kind of relationship, so I'll just tell you a secret: fresh fruit is practically as expensive as gold right now!"
"What? It's so expensive! Looks like there are quite a few rich people in City C!"
In his excitement, Xu Lai blurted out his hometown dialect!
Although Xu Lai possessed this magical space, neither her family nor her family had any connection with the "rich" in her past or present life. Therefore, she knew nothing about the lives of the wealthy, especially the lives of the super-rich.
"Sigh, girl, the world of the rich is completely different from that of us ordinary people. Everyone says that it's hard to even survive in this world, but my wealthy clients who live in the villas on the hillside are living no worse than they did before the natural disaster!"
Then Chen Cheng whispered to Xu Lai about the daily lives of several of his super-rich clients: "Before the natural disaster, there were complete legal controls, so those people could restrain themselves a little. Now, government departments can't control everything, and those people are even more unscrupulous!"
Chen Cheng felt a bit hot as he spoke, so he instructed Hei Zi beside him, "Hei Zi, go get the three cups of ice cream from the refrigerator in the driver's cab!"
When Hei Zi heard that there were three cups, it meant that he would get one, and he was overjoyed.
"Brother Chen, you truly deserve to be called the eldest brother; you still have ice cream to eat at a time like this!"
"Here you go, girl!"
Hei Zi quickly grabbed the ice cream and, without waiting for the boss's instructions, handed one to Xu Lai, then one to the boss, and kept the last one for himself.
Xu Lai took the icy-cold ice cream; the creamy aroma emanating from it made her mouth water.
If you ask what goes best with summer, it's definitely ice cream.
Before the natural disaster, Xu Lai and her family had stockpiled two boxes of ice cream and other similar items, but they had all been eaten up by her and her brother during the torrential rains and floods.
Xu Lai took the ice cream from Hei Zi without any hesitation and then opened the lid of the ice cream box.
I carefully scraped the ice cream off the lid with a spoon, and then put the scraped ice cream into my mouth.
