Feng Haidong pedaled his tricycle, carrying 20 cases of beer, and hurried back without stopping.
Along the way, he had already planned in his mind how to make good use of the 20 cases of beer in the car.
They rode their tricycles directly into the residential compound, parked them in front of their own courtyard gates, and unloaded the beer, case by case, from the tricycles into the yard.
Finally, Feng Haidong even left a box on the tricycle.
After locking the door again, he pushed his tricycle toward the vegetable market in front of the residential compound.
Upon entering the market, we arrived at a vegetable stall.
The owner of this stall is an older woman.
Because Lu Wanling often bought groceries from her family, the two families became familiar with each other. Two years ago, the eldest sister transferred her youngest son to a middle school in the city.
When my older sister was buying groceries at Lu Wanling's place, she casually mentioned it to her and asked her about the matter of enrolling in a school outside of Lu Wanling's home.
As a result, Lu Wanling took it to heart, because she felt that every time she bought vegetables from her older sister's house, her older sister not only picked out the best ones for her, but also gave her extra weight each time, so she wanted to help her older sister.
Coincidentally, Feng Haidong's mother-in-law was a retired middle school teacher.
Lu Wanling went home and told her mother about it.
Afterwards, Feng Haidong's mother-in-law stepped in and helped arrange for the vegetable vendor's youngest son to attend school.
The older sister was truly grateful, and later, every time Lu Wanling came to buy groceries, the older sister refused to accept money several times.
In his previous life, this vegetable-selling woman and her family had also helped Feng Haidong and his family on many occasions when they encountered difficulties.
Even when Feng Haidong and his wife were struggling financially and couldn't afford to buy meat.
The eldest sister specially bought meat and asked her youngest son to deliver it to Feng Haidong's family's doorstep.
In his previous life, Feng Haidong once looked down on the vegetable vendor.
But it was only after his eldest sister secretly sent his youngest son to deliver vegetables and meat to their family, and compared with Mei Yaqin's opportunistic behavior, that Feng Haidong truly saw what kind of people were truly sincere.
Looking back on some things from his past life, Feng Haidong finally understands what it means to exchange sincerity for sincerity.
Feng Haidong pushed the tricycle to the vegetable stall and said with a smile to the older woman sitting inside, "Sister, I've brought the tricycle back to you, thank you. Here's a case of beer, it was given to Wanling by her company. They gave out three cases, so I'll give this case to your family to try."
The vegetable vendor, Liu Cuiping, quickly stood up: "Oh, why are you being so polite? You can keep the beer for yourselves."
Feng Haidong laughed and said, "Haha, don't be so polite, sister. It's three cases. There aren't many people in our family, so we can't drink it all. You can take it home for your brother to drink."
After saying that, Feng Haidong pushed the tricycle to the spot opposite the stall where tricycles were parked.
Just as he was about to leave, the older woman came out of her stall with a bag in her hand and handed it directly to Feng Haidong.
"Take these dishes home and eat them."
Feng Haidong was taken aback when he saw this, then quickly said, "Sister, this is too much. How much is it? I'll pay you."
Liu Cuiping immediately put on a stern face and said, "What money? This is what I do, I sell these things, do I need your business?"
Seeing how sincere the older sister was, and how she had already insisted on giving him a bag of vegetables, Feng Haidong was deeply moved.
He could only smile and accept it, saying, "Okay, I'll take it. Thank you, big sister."
Seeing that Feng Haidong accepted it, Liu Cuiping said happily, "Okay, come and get whatever you want to eat next time."
Feng Haidong said, "Okay, I'll definitely come and get it."
After saying goodbye to the vegetable vendor, Feng Haidong carried the bag of vegetables she had given him home.
When he got home, he opened the bag his older sister had insisted on giving him. Inside were potatoes, tomatoes, green onions, eggplants, and cabbage—a really complete set of things.
Feng Haidong couldn't help but chuckle and mutter, "Now I won't have to buy groceries for the next two or three days."
Of course, Feng Haidong didn't stay at home idly; instead, he took his bicycle out again.
The beer has been brought back, and the cart should be able to go to the factory tomorrow to ask Tang Anguo for help. But that's not enough; he still needs to prepare a lot of other things.
You will need a large pot and a gas stove.
Most importantly, you need to buy all kinds of seasonings.
Feng Haidong's thinking is very clear: he doesn't have much capital at the moment.
It's simply impossible to do a huge business all at once.
However, he can still devise an alternative path and seize some opportunities before the tide arrives.
Moreover, after his wife passed away in his previous life, he learned some decent cooking skills from various online chefs in order to please his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Back in 1996, Feng Haidong was still confident that he could run his business smoothly with his skills.
Starting with a street stall, Feng Haidong believed that by being down-to-earth and working hard, he could weather the storm and ensure that his family would never again have to worry about having meat to eat.
Riding his bicycle out again, Feng Haidong headed directly towards the northern part of the city.
In the northern part of the city, there is a large market where you can buy almost anything.
If you want to buy a suitable large pot and a liquefied gas stove, then the Beicheng Wholesale Market is definitely the only choice.
Feng Haidong had a clear goal, so after riding his bicycle into the North City Market, he went straight for his target.
After inquiring at several places, Feng Haidong finally settled on one that offered the best value for money.
Feng Haidong was not polite at all and engaged in a very fierce bargaining match with the other party.
Finally, Feng Haidong managed to buy a large iron pot from this store at a very low price, and it also came with a liquefied gas stove.
