Chapter 11 Trouble on the Return Journey
Sleeping comfortably in bed is definitely better than curling up in the cab in the past few days.
He just took a good shower with hot water, and now all the fatigue accumulated in the past few days has come up.
He will take a nap first. He
will wait until he hears his cousin knocking on the door before getting up to open the door, and he will not care about anything else.
He even closed the windows tightly, for fear that someone would climb up from the outer wall.
He was sleeping soundly when there was a knock on the door.
"Mingche, it's me--"
Fang Mingche got out of bed, put on his military coat and opened the door.
He drove all the way to Guangzhou, and actually didn't need to wear a military coat. He put it beside the bed just to make it convenient to put it on and open the door.
There is such a large amount of money in the room, so he would rather take the trouble to get up and open the door now. The door must be locked.
Fortunately, most of the money will be given out when the goods are received tomorrow night. They will have to take the rest back.
Fang Mingche smelled a scent of perfume on his cousin.
He was exhausted these days anyway, and he didn't expect his cousin to still have the energy to go out and play with women.
"You went out to play, your brother-in-law didn't say anything?"
"He also went to find his lover, and I didn't tell my brother's wife. Anyway, we stayed for two nights, and we took turns going out. And I'm actually good to his sister, I just go out to play occasionally."
After washing up, the cousin saw that Fang Mingche was still asleep and asked: "Mingche, what are you going to take back?"
"Electronic watch." Small and popular.
Fang Mingfeng nodded, "This is good. But someone told me what goods they want. I have to satisfy the old customers first."
This matter was done behind the boss's back, and the things he could bring were limited. Decided to bring some electronic watches next time.
The next day, Fang Mingche followed his cousin's instructions to find a place that specializes in smuggled goods.
The old drivers who have been running here for a long time know the place.
Even if they have to change places temporarily, they can find out in this familiar hotel.
They can't go out together, because someone has to guard so much money.
He went out to do business first, and then went back to change cousin. Each person brought his own goods and didn't interfere with each other.
But Fang Mingche didn't care to look at it on the way. He only cautiously glanced out of the black bus.
This black bus was also called by his cousin, who said he was an acquaintance.
Otherwise, on the bus, he would have to worry about someone cutting his pocket and stealing his money. There were so many people, and he had to hold on even when standing.
The pickpockets on the bus were very powerful. He had already taken your money without you noticing.
Fang Mingche put his hands in his trouser pockets. There were 50 big unity banknotes in each of his trouser pockets, wrapped in newspaper. This prevented individual banknotes from falling out.
He was wearing a short black tweed jacket, the style of a Zhongshan suit.
This was bought last year. A Yan said that he had to have some clothes for formal occasions. It was just
right to wear in Guangzhou at this time of year. He knew that the destination this time was all the way south to Guangzhou, so he took it with him.
When he arrived at the place, there was a dazzling array of goods. Local delicacies, various clothes, electrical appliances.
It made people doubt that this was not the 1970s when materials were scarce.
Fang Mingche had only 1,000 yuan in his pocket. He didn't dare to look at anything else, because he couldn't afford it even if he looked. He was so eager to buy one for no reason!
He walked straight to the stall selling electronic watches and picked the cheapest one.
"Don't worry, the time is guaranteed to be correct. If the drivers who come here to buy goods for a long time are not right, they will come to smash my stall next time, right?"
Fang Mingche said, "Make it cheaper."
"How many do you want to buy?"
"You are 25 yuan each, I want to buy 40."
The boss shook his head, "No, the lowest price is 28." He
originally asked for 32, but he negotiated it
down to 30. The boss would not reduce it to 28 and would not go any lower. In the end, Fang Mingche took 35 watches and spent 980.
Now, except for the remaining 20 and the scattered 30, this is all his wealth.
Oh, and there is also the 40 yuan salary that can be earned from this trip. That can only be obtained after the goods are shipped back safely.
Back at the hotel, Fang Mingche put the electronic watch into the inner pocket that his mother had sewn on the inside of the military coat. He put
several things in one inner pocket. Then he buttoned the outer buttons and there was no trace.
The military coat and the sweater inside were thick, and the thickness of the electronic watch could be completely concealed when he returned.
He didn't plan to go out shopping again.
Fang Mingfeng was smoking next to him, "Are you going to take it back for wholesale or retail?"
"Wholesale, I'm a teacher after all, how can I secretly set up a street stall?"
He had to keep his job at the school for the time being.
Getting into college is always a shortcut to BJ. In this era, the bonus of the college entrance examination has been restored, and you must take it if you can.
But if you want to pass the exam, you need an environment where you can study with peace of mind. It is better to stay in school.
Moreover, the key is that he has to support his daughter, so he can't take too many risks.
He was an ordinary person in his previous life.
He didn't want to be rich in this life. I hope that through my own efforts, I can make my wife and children live a better life. I don't want to miss a good opportunity like I did in my previous life.
It's risky to carry goods on the road, and it's also risky to sell them when I get back. Although the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee has been held, small places have not really started to move.
He is not familiar with how to ship goods, so it's better to wholesale them to his student Xu Sheng.
He paid for the treatment of this kid's mother, so she was rescued in time.
He is a filial son, and
there is no way he can cheat him. Fang Mingfeng heard that he had a channel for shipping, so he didn't say much. He
just said: "The brains of scholars should be more useful. Think of everything before you come."
"I also heard that you are looking for someone to take over your brother-in-law's shift."
Otherwise, he would have to find another way.
After lunch, my cousin went out to buy goods.
This day is for drivers to rest. But basically, they use this day's free time to buy goods and bring them back.
Otherwise, just seeing the boss making a lot of money, you only earn 40 yuan for one trip?
After my cousin came back from handling the goods, he asked Mingche to keep the payment and the goods he brought. He went to the hair salon again and came back at midnight.
They set out on the 14th, and today is the 18th.
They are not responsible for the purchase of goods. The quantity and type will be communicated directly with the boss.
Tomorrow morning, we will go to the flat and open place where we unloaded the goods yesterday, and we will pay the payment and leave.
There were several thrilling encounters on the way here, but they were all resolved with the experience of my cousin.
I hope the journey back will be fine.
Early in the morning on the 19th, the two brothers drove the truck to pick up the goods and set off again.
The first thing they encountered on the way back was that a group of people dug up the road halfway.
The road was dug up, and the truck could only stop urgently or get stuck.
Then a group of people rushed over.
In the best case, the driver was beaten up, and the goods were robbed;
in the worst case, it was the worst result.
But there were other people on the road today who knew about it, so the driver's life should be saved.
On the way back, my cousin deliberately fell behind.
Before they reached the dug-up area, two cars in front of them turned around and came back.
My cousin said directly: "There's a car accident, turn around!"
