045 Lying flat is just around the corner

We have arrived at Shanghe Village.

Gao Qinghe paid the fare and got off the car, then thanked him again.

After watching the little blue card turn around and fly away, I walked home in the blue twilight.

People in the countryside eat dinner late. This is the time when everyone finishes work in the fields and returns home to prepare dinner.

The aroma of food wafts from every household.

Gao Qinghe took a sniff and felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and anticipation.

After being reborn for so long, she only gradually felt the reality of living in the present in the past two days.

Gao Qinghe first walked around the convenience store.

The lady in the convenience store told her that Gao Qingmiao called in the afternoon.

Then he handed her a piece of paper with the specific arrival time written on it.

"Didn't he say anything else?" Gao Qinghe asked.

Auntie shook her head. "No, I just said the time on the paper."

Phone calls are expensive, and the price doubles if the call exceeds one minute. Most people just say a few words and hang up.

Gao Qinghe nodded, bought some fruit candy for one dollar at the store as a token of appreciation, and walked home.

I looked at the time on the note again and saw that I would arrive in Lin County at 12 noon tomorrow.

She originally thought that her brother was young and inexperienced, so he might have to stay for a day or two longer.

I didn't expect it to be so fast.

The day after tomorrow is Women’s Day. At this rate, we can definitely catch up.

After returning home and having dinner, Gao Qinghe wrote down the day's accounts, took a shower and went to bed.

The next day, I got up early and went straight into the city without any goods.

It was past nine o'clock when Gao Qinghe arrived at the county town and went to eat something first.

After the meal, I immediately found someone to rent a three-wheeled motorcycle truck and drove to Linxian Railway Station to pick up people and goods.

Along the way, Gao Qinghe was wondering whether Miaomiao was doing things smoothly.

Although the goods I got are the same as before, the quantity is different, and I don’t know if there are so many stocks in the provincial capital.

There are also boutique bags. Nowadays, plastic bags still have red and yellow watermelon patterns. The beautiful gift bags of later generations are not easy to find.

With a nervous mood, Gao Qinghe and the driver arrived at the train station early.

After parking the car, Gao Qinghe brought the driver to the platform to wait.

The train was delayed by more than ten minutes.

There weren't many people getting off the bus at the station, but everyone was carrying bags of all sizes. Gao Qinghe scanned the faces one by one and didn't see any familiar ones.

Just as I was waiting anxiously, I heard a familiar voice calling from not far away.

"sister!"

I quickly turned my head and saw Gao Qingmiao dragging a large package in one hand and standing at the car door, trying hard to protect it.

“Miaomiao!”

Gao Qinghe quickly took the driver with him to help.

It took three people a lot of effort to unload the two huge packages onto the platform.

The package isn't heavy, it's just too big for one person to carry.

Gao Qinghe looked after the goods, and Gao Qingmiao and the driver made two trips before they finally set off and returned smoothly.

Gao Qinghe handed his brother a pot of water and a piece of bread that he had bought from the county town earlier.

Gao Qingmiao looked like he hadn't had breakfast yet, so he took the food and ate it in a few big mouthfuls.

After finishing, he drank half a pot of water and burped loudly.

Gao Qinghe leaned back in disgust.

"Disgusting."

Gao Qingmiao chuckled, tightened the kettle and returned it to his sister, then patted the package under him proudly.

"Sister, all the goods you want are here!"

Gao Qinghe nodded in agreement. It was not convenient to talk about it on the way, so they would talk about it when they got home.

Gao Qinghe rented a three-wheeled motorcycle for a day, which cost her thirty yuan, and she asked the driver to drive it directly to her doorstep.

Once the two large packages were placed in the main room, the already small room seemed even more cramped.

Dad is at school, mom is working in the fields, and grandma is chatting somewhere else.

In the yard, there was only an old hen and a group of chicks clucking around.

Gao Qinghe washed his face first, then took a pair of scissors to cut open the woven bag covering the package and began to count the goods.

A total of 1,500 yuan worth of goods.

There wasn't enough space for the dining table in the main hall, so the siblings sat in groups.

One hundred pairs of leggings and fifty pairs of stockings.

Gao Qingmiao said: "This one-piece stocking is three yuan a pair. At first, he didn't want to give me this price. I told him that you had received this price a few days ago, and then the boss relented."

But it’s no wonder that the boss doesn’t remember him.

The boss has so many customers in his shop every day, and he is not as pretty as my sister, so he is not very impressive.

These cost 650 yuan.

All that's left is lipstick and scarves.

Gao Qingmiao took five boxes each.

A box of silk scarves costs 68 yuan. There are 20 scarves in a box, and 100 scarves in five boxes. The patterns and colors are randomly matched.

A box of lipstick costs 45 yuan, and there are 20 lipsticks in a box. There are 100 lipsticks in five boxes. They all have a uniform black shell and a bright red color.

These two items cost 565 yuan.

Gao Qingmiao used the remaining 285 yuan to buy luxury bags.

There are two types in total. One is the translucent pink plastic bag that Gao Qinghe used to pack Jiang Baohai's socks last time.

Available in small and medium sizes.

The small one is used to hold small accessories, scarves, lipsticks, etc.

The medium size can hold two pairs of leggings, which is the perfect size.

This kind of plastic bag is not cheap. One hundred is a bunch, a small one costs 35, and a medium one costs 40.

Not sold individually, minimum order is one lot.

And a large plastic bag with watermelon patterns is only ten yuan!

Gao Qingmiao carefully brought the 'highlight' which was wrapped in several layers to the table.

After opening the protective packaging layer by layer, there are one hundred neatly stacked high-quality cardboard gift bags inside.

It is the size of a shoe box, with a pure white background and various beautiful gold-plated patterns printed on it.

The handle is a golden braided handle, and there is a round hole at the top of the paper bag for threading a ribbon.

Gao Qingmiao took out an individually wrapped exquisite ribbon, threaded it into the gift bag and tied it up.

The gift bag, which already looks high-end, is instantly elevated to a higher level with the embellishment of a ribbon.

Gao Qinghe selected a silk scarf and a lipstick and put them in, holding them in her hand.

It feels like a high-end brand product taken out from a high-end brand counter.

"How much?" Gao Qinghe asked.

Gao Qingmiao kept the secret for now and said that he had been looking for this factory that made gift bags for a whole day.

Then he stretched out two fingers and said in an exaggerated tone:

"Two dollars each!"

After saying that, I waited to see my sister's surprised expression.

Unexpectedly, she just smiled and nodded, expressing her approval of the price.

Gao Qingmiao: "Aren't you surprised?"

"I'm surprised." Gao Qinghe said calmly.

She counted the gift bags and there were 91 in total.

Gao Qingmiao said with a bitter face, "I can't help it. In the end, I only have so much money left."

"Originally, they had a minimum order of 500 pieces, specifically for high-end counters in city department stores. I begged them for a long time before they reluctantly gave me the defective stock."

However, he had checked them all and found that there was nothing wrong with these defective products, except that the prints were not perfect.

Anyone who has never seen a department store packaging bag would never be able to tell!

Seeing his brother's anxious expression, Gao Qinghe couldn't help but laugh.

Miaomiao's performance after this purchase completely exceeded her expectations.

It seems that lying flat is just around the corner.

That night, Gao Qinghe gathered the whole family to help pack fifty gift boxes of silk scarves and lipsticks.

The scarves are rolled into the shape of roses, and the lipstick is placed inside the center of the rose.

The ribbon on the gift bag is tied into a beautiful double bow.

A gift like this is exquisite and high-end, and it will definitely make you look good when you give it to others.
