Chapter 189: Boxes to bring treasures home...
Chapter 189
Lin Mujin and her cousin Lin went to the vegetable market again.
In fact, Cousin Lin bought some ingredients at the morning market, but it was not enough.
"Brother, let's buy a grouper, a lobster, and two pounds of mantis shrimp. For crabs, let's buy four flower crabs."
That’s right, they come here specifically to buy seafood. There is less seafood in the morning market, and they are all very regular.
Cousin Lin had no objection. "Okay, I'll carry the bags."
Lin Mujin burst into laughter.
Soon we bought all the seafood and went home.
As soon as Lin Mujin got home, she received a call from Qin Zheng.
"The goods have been shipped to the shipping company. It's going so fast. How do I get the inventory? Do I need to register all the porcelain, calligraphy, and paintings? No, just a general registration will do! Great!" Lin Mujin breathed a sigh of relief. "We'll be on the ship at 10 o'clock and arrive at Tuen Mun River Trade Terminal at 1 o'clock. That's fast. Okay, I'll charter a car to pick up the goods. What else do I need to do? I'll prepare a few extra packs of good cigarettes. I want to treat Mr. Xu to dinner, but he has to leave that day. Why is he in such a hurry? He has work arrangements. All right then."
Lin Mujin put down the phone and couldn't help but clench her little fists and punch them a few times. The baby is coming home.
"Brother, accompany me for a while."
Cousin Lin came out of the bedroom and asked, "What's going on?"
Lin Mujin quickly explained that the boxes needed to be shipped back. "Brother, we need to find a car now, at least two, and some straw. I don't know if there's any in Hong Kong, and if not, what can we use instead?"
Maybe this is the trouble of happiness.
Cousin Lin smiled helplessly, "Alright, forget it. We can just ask them when we find a car. But isn't it too early to find a car now? Do you want to book it for a whole day?"
Lin Mujin was not yet overwhelmed by happiness. "It's just a haul of goods, why would we need to rent a truck?"
Even if you have money, there is no need to waste it like this.
Cousin Lin checked the time and said, "It's only nine in the morning. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Lin Mujin covered her mouth and laughed, "You're too excited. Go back and read your book."
She took a homemade ice cream from the refrigerator and went back to her bedroom to read. She had already skimmed through the book and found that most of it was common sense that she would understand even without reading it.
There are only a few parts that are different from the inland traffic regulations that she needs to focus on memorizing. In short, she is very confident about tomorrow's test.
——————
At noon, neither the brother nor the sister was in the mood to cook a big meal, so they just had a simple meal and went out.
We rented two trucks and two large straw mats near the Tuen Mun Inland Terminal and hired two porters.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the cargo ship finally arrived.
Lin Mujin had contacted Manager Wang before, and the two had already agreed on a meeting time and place.
"Are you Manager Wang?" Lin Mujin saw a middle-aged man looking around as if looking for someone. She thought it must be him, so she quickly stepped forward and asked.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, "You are Miss Lin."
Lin Mujin smiled and extended her hand, and they shook hands. "Manager Wang's boat will be arriving soon. What should I do?"
Manager Wang asked, "You have a lot of stuff. Do you have a car?"
Lin Mujin nodded immediately, "We rented two trucks, they're right outside."
Manager Wang said, "Let the truck follow. We'll go pick up the ship together. We'll go through the special channel for on-site inspection and stamping, and then you can leave directly."
Lin Mujin quickly stuffed two packs of 555 into the bag and said, "Excuse me, Manager Wang."
She hurried to call her cousin Lin and rent a car.
When they arrived at the inner dock, the cargo ship had just docked, the timing was just perfect.
Soon the crane began unloading the cargo and placing it directly onto the truck.
Because of Manager Wang's relationship, their goods were the first batch.
In just over ten minutes, all their goods were unloaded.
Lin Mujin secretly counted the number and found it basically matched.
That's it.
Bodyguard Xu also got off the boat and got on the truck.
Led by Manager Wang, the inspection was just a formality. The two trucks passed smoothly after being stamped.
"Mr. Xu, please stay at my house tonight." Lin Mujin invited sincerely, as there were enough houses at home.
Bodyguard Xu waved his hand. "The boss asked me to follow this shipment to Miss Lin's house. After that, I have to rush back immediately. The construction site is very busy right now."
When it comes to work, Lin Mujin is speechless.
Soon they arrived at the entire rental building, and several people began to move boxes, wood and furniture to the fourth floor.
Except for the extra-large mahogany box which was a little difficult to move, everything else was fine.
Lin Mujin watched as the wood, boxes, stools, and chairs were neatly stacked into the empty bedroom.
After settling the car fare and the porter's fees, Lin Mujin did not let bodyguard Xu leave immediately.
Lin Mujin called Qin Zheng, who was waiting for her at home.
"Ah Zheng, the stuff has arrived. The quantity is correct. I haven't looked inside yet, but it should be fine. The seals are still on. Mr. Xu has been following us. Customs went smoothly. Manager Wang took us straight through the formalities. Okay, I'll be there in a few days." Lin Mujin handed the phone to bodyguard Xu. "Qin Zheng wants to speak to you."
Bodyguard Xu hummed twice and hung up the phone, immediately saying goodbye, "I have something to do for the boss."
Seeing that she couldn't keep him, Lin Mujin had no choice but to send him downstairs with her cousin Lin.
Then she stuffed two boxes of Daifuku into her hand, which were left in the refrigerator by her cousin Lin as snacks.
"Mr. Xu, you also know where I live. You can come over when you come to Hong Kong in the future." Lin Mujin glanced at her cousin Lin and said with a smile, "Please help me give Qin Zheng a good message. I am very grateful to him this time."
Bodyguard Xu smiled and said "OK", then turned around and strode away.
After he walked away, Lin Mujin cheered and went upstairs.
Babies! Big babes! Here I come!
Cousin Lin shook his head and slowly went upstairs.
Lin Mujin picked a box that was easier to open, tore off the seal and opened it. Inside were calligraphy and paintings, wrapped tightly with newspapers and plastic sheets.
She pulled out a scroll and opened it. It was a picture of a galloping horse, so majestic.
Would you like to hang one in your bedroom?
Forget it, I’m afraid it might get broken.
But she needs to ask someone how to preserve calligraphy and paintings for a long time.
It's definitely not okay to keep it in a box for a long time.
Who knows if there are worms in the straw?
Thinking of this, she became even more worried, and quickly took out all the calligraphy and paintings in the box and put them in the living room.
Then grab the straw out of the box.
He ran to find a nylon bag and stuffed the straw into it.
He then found a damp rag and wiped the box inside and out.
Of course, these paintings are not all there are. There should be a box to hold the paintings, and several paintings are scattered among the porcelain.
But she didn't remember which box it was.
How to do it?
Just when she was about to call her cousin Lin to come over and help her find it, her cousin Lin came over and said, "Sister, it's getting late. You should go prepare the food."
Lin Mujin just remembered that she had to treat Master Lin Muli to dinner that night. "I'll be right there!"
After touching the inside of the box and finding it dry, Lin Mujin put all the paintings in the living room back in place, closed the box, and locked the bedroom. Only then did she feel at ease and go to the kitchen.
