Lu Zhiye had just woken up and was still a little dazed. He turned his head to look at the scenery receding outside, and his chaotic thoughts slowly calmed down.
About 15 minutes later, the flight attendant called out numbers while holding a boxed meal!
Tengchong quickly grabbed his ticket and walked forward. He took out his money and meal tickets from his pocket and said to the flight attendant with a grin, "Sister, these are my numbers 27 and 28."
Thank you for your hard work!
In the noisy environment, everyone was rushing and squeezing forward. Suddenly seeing such a polite young man, the flight attendant felt a little more at ease.
She rummaged through a pile of lunchboxes for a bit, then pulled out two from the bottom and handed them to Tengchong: "Here you go!"
Tengchong happily accepted the lunchboxes, handed over the money and tickets, and anyone nearby who wasn't blind could tell that these two lunchboxes were definitely different from theirs!
A man wearing glasses said with dissatisfaction, "Flight attendant, when we buy food, you take it all at once from top to bottom. Why do you start taking it from the bottom when it comes to this young man?"
"Could it be that your lunchboxes are different from ours?"
Seeing that he spoke logically and reasonably, and wasn't an unreasonable person, and that his words were convincing, the people around him began to clamor, "What do you mean? Are there many lunchboxes at the bottom?"
"Yeah, why don't they give us the bottom portion?"
As the argument in the crowd grew louder and louder, the lunchbox in Tengchong's hands seemed to become a hot potato, and he felt uncomfortable no matter how he held it!
The flight attendant said without changing her expression, "The food in the lunchboxes is different. If you don't believe me, you can open them and take a look!"
The first 20 orders consist of two meat dishes and one vegetable dish: braised pork, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, and stir-fried gourd!
The last 20 numbers, although also two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, were stir-fried pork with chili peppers, spicy chicken, and bok choy!
The lunchboxes they gave you should have been labeled. The young man specifically wanted spicy chicken, so what's wrong with me picking out a portion for him?
These words made many people thankfully shut their mouths. After all, it was so chaotic just now, and the young man was so big and burly that he blocked many people's view, so no one knew whether he had told the flight attendant what he wanted!
Tengchong breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the flight attendants a few more times. He admired these grassroots workers from the bottom of his heart. They were able to understand everyone's thoughts and handle their work matters very well!
Tengchong happily carried the two lunchboxes to his bed!
Then, he gently placed it in front of Lu Zhiye, showing his big teeth, and said, "Lunch?"
Lu Zhiye quickly pushed the lunchbox forward: "I'm not hungry yet, and I brought my own food!"
"No need to trouble you, young man!"
He could tell that Tengchong might have something to ask for and didn't want to get involved with such people!
Tengchong frowned and said, "I've already bought them, but one person can't finish two boxes of food!"
"Oh, just eat it. At worst, you can buy me another one tonight, right?"
Since they had already said so much, Lu Zhiye had no intention of making enemies.
After all, the young man in front of them was sincere, making it hard to feel any dislike towards him!
Seeing Lu Zhiye pull the lunchbox in front of him, Tengchong beamed with joy!
He sat there quietly, eating his meal in big mouthfuls. Lu Zhiye glanced at Tengchong without making a sound. Although he seemed to be wolfing down his food, there was still a certain refinement in his eating habits. It seemed that he had a very good upbringing!
Even the grains of rice that fall on the table are picked up and put into the mouth. Unlike many people, the child doesn't smack his lips or talk while eating.
After finishing everything, Tengchong waited quietly for Lu Zhiye to finish his meal before speaking, "Brother, we're about the same age, what are you up to?"
Lu Zhiye slowly packed up his lunchbox and chuckled, "I'm planning to go to Zhejiang Province to check out the garment factories!"
Tengchong's pupils contracted sharply. He hadn't expected that Lu Zhiye would have the same idea as him!
Could it be that the man in front of him was sent by his father to spy on him?
No, that's unlikely!
If that's the case, then this person can't openly reveal their purpose!
Tengchong's mind raced. He gently placed the two lunchboxes on the table in the aisle, then leaned back in his chair and said, "I didn't expect Comrade Lu to have the same idea as me!"
I'm also planning to visit the garment factory over there!
His words piqued Lu Zhiye's interest: "Oh? You're going to open a clothing store?"
Aside from this possibility, Lu Zhiye could hardly think of what a person would do in an unfamiliar clothing factory.
Tengchong feigned naivety, chuckling as he scratched his head: "No, that's not it. I don't have that much capital to rent a storefront and open a clothing store..."
He cautiously looked around. There was no one on the upper bunk in their small carriage, so he wasn't worried about others hearing him!
"I want to bring this kind of clothing from the south into our north!"
I've observed that the economies of several cities surrounding Beijing are developing very rapidly!
There are even more food stalls than in other cities! Not to mention the small, privately owned restaurants!
Many tailor shops have also reopened. With the economic boom, the old clothes from the supply and marketing cooperatives simply can't fetch a good price!
In our city alone, there are two small clothing stores!
It's very popular among young people, and I was originally thinking of investing some money to open a clothing store!
But the market share for the entire city is only so big, and with them occupying one in the south and one in the north, I estimate they won't get much profit!
Tengchong picked up the cup and gulped down several mouthfuls of water to moisten his throat before continuing, "And I also looked at several nearby cities, and a lot of the clothes were sourced from several garment factories in the surrounding area!"
Only a small portion of them were imported from the south, and they were probably based on the styles from the department store!
So I was wondering, why are they ordering such small quantities?!
After observing for a few more days, I think the main reason is probably the inconvenient transportation and the lack of funds to let them visit all the factories in the south!
Lu Zhiye was a smart man; he understood Tengchong's thoughts just by hearing him finish speaking.
This person probably wanted to resell goods from the south and supply them to several clothing stores!
This is a good business opportunity. If it can be expanded to several cities, that would be a considerable amount!
However, this is also very difficult!
Looking at Lu Zhiye's expression, Tengchong understood that the man in front of him had already figured out his thoughts!
He clapped his hands happily, as if he had found a kindred spirit: "Do you think my idea is feasible?"
Lu Zhiye pretended not to understand: "You haven't finished speaking, how would I know?"
Tengchong curled his lip, finding it somewhat boring. Was this guy just pretending to be weak to take advantage of others?
