Chapter 146 Confirming the Transport Team
The shelf life of the prepared taro paste is short. Since it is ready, it must be shipped quickly. If the time is delayed, the quality of the taro paste will easily be affected.
Without further ado, Josh made an appointment with the rookie errand contact and they drove the animal cart directly to the farm today.
One is to let Josh check the means of transportation, and the other is to save time. If the deal is reached, the goods can be directly loaded onto the vehicle and shipped on the spot.
Of course, both parties also agreed that if the deal failed, they would just part ways amicably without getting entangled.
The three bread ovens first baked the bread and then the fish fillets, and they were in full swing for the entire afternoon.
The sound of animal bells tinkled outside the farm. Qiao Xi wiped the water off her hands and walked out of the yard to greet them. The Brown-headed Vulture had already given her a reminder, so she was not flustered.
As soon as I went out, I saw three tall and majestic broad-backed rhinos. Compared with the broad-backed rhinos I had ridden before, these three were taller, and their backs were wider and flatter. Although they had the same name, the two magical beasts were not the same.
It is difficult to say which is a variant of which, but it goes without saying that the larger broad-backed rhinoceros is much rarer than the smaller one.
The well-bred broad-back rhino has excellent Warcraft qualities and is disciplined, which is in stark contrast to the jumping lamb that is jumping and peeking next to it.
Qiao Xi held his forehead and secretly glared at the jumping lambs that wanted to rush over and jump high.
Josh heaved a sigh of relief when he saw them running away to other places in shame.
As a result, when he looked up and saw the tall merchant soldier in leather armor, Qiao Xi's eyes lit up and he whistled quietly in his heart, so handsome!
I went up to him and said, "Hello, handsome guy."
Of course, it's just a thought. Josh has the intention but not the courage to do it.
After greeting the handsome guy calmly, Josh noticed that there was another guest in a wheelchair next to him. "Hello, my name is Josh, nice to meet you." He extended his hand and greeted Fabian.
He glanced at the wheelchair but didn't see his legs. Josh didn't want to make irrelevant speculations about his partner, which would also be an offense.
Looking directly at Mr. Fabian in front of him, Josh greeted him with a smile, without his eyes shifting downwards at all.
During the conversation, I learned that this was the first long-term order they had received and they attached great importance to it. Mr. Askan was their team leader and he came over specially to discuss the matter with her.
This small delivery mission was the first time for both parties. The communication did not seem like a business negotiation. Everyone was very soft and there was no fighting for every penny in the business world at all.
In the end, it was Josh who made the final decision. Unless there were special circumstances, the delivery person would come to Weiguang Farm every three days to pick up and deliver goods for Josh, and the bill would be settled once a month, calculated based on the storage boxes currently in use on the farm, the quantity of goods and the transportation distance.
Mr. Fabian thought about it for a few seconds and agreed immediately. It was a good deal.
The details of the transaction were always discussed by Josh and Mr. Fabian, and the stern Captain Askan rarely offered any opinions.
There was only one thing. When he drank the fruit honey water, he asked Josh Farm whether it sold the fruit honey to the outside world. If so, the farm would provide a fixed amount of fruit honey every month, and Cainiao could deliver the goods to the farm without limit on the number of times and distance.
However, it is a pity that "the yield of the magic fruit tree for making fruit honey is very low this year. After all the magic fruits were harvested, only this one jar of magic fruit honey was made. The conditions of the caravan are very tempting, but I am powerless." Qiao Xi smiled bitterly and pointed to the jar next to the cupboard.
The big jar now only has a shallow layer of golden bottom, and the amount visible to the naked eye is very scarce, so it can only be scooped a few times.
"Okay, sorry." Askan apologized softly. What he said just now was indeed a bit offensive.
"It's okay. I know the fruit nectar I make. A lot of people like it." Qiao Xi smiled proudly. She was so happy that someone liked the fruit nectar she made.
The farm lady was unusually bright and pretty. Before she left, a ripple passed through Askan's heart, but he quickly concealed it.
Huh~ Qiao Xi breathed a sigh of relief. The bread and taro paste made today were packed and sent out.
The Askan captain moved all the boxes of goods up in minutes, so Josh didn't feel involved at all and saved a lot of effort.
However, what was a little embarrassing was that the three large broad-backed rhinos were really a waste of resources, and her cargo today added up to not even fill up a broad-backed rhinoceros.
When Josh and Mr. Fabian found out, they were both a little embarrassed, but he quickly covered it up and just said that the three greater broad-backed rhinos had a good relationship and were inseparable, so they were brought here together.
But Josh discovered that Captain Askan clearly knew this. When he was moving the goods, he did not stop at all and tied them up quickly, which showed that he knew what was going on.
But why didn't they stop Mr. Fabian from bringing over three large broad-backed rhinos?
I really don't understand.
Wait, Askan, Askan, eh, isn’t that the name that Puda asked the errand boy that day?
I had almost forgotten about it, but today's excitement brought it back to my mind.
It turns out that he is the Captain of Askkan who led the retired soldiers of the First Legion away.
Askan, who was delivering the orders, felt helpless when he saw Fabian insisting on following him.
"Fabian, why don't you just stay in the lounge? Why do you have to follow me?"
Fabian said embarrassedly: "Captain, you knew I was commanding the greater broad-backed rhinoceros and I called for two more. Why didn't you stop me?" He was also a novice commander and did not have a clear understanding of the size and weight of these goods, so it was inevitable that he would make mistakes.
"Why should I tell you? You know it now." Askan said with a smile, not caring.
If I had spoken at that time, and interrupted Fabian's high spirits, I guess he wouldn't have been in the best mood he is now.
It's not a big deal. It's boring to stay in the animal pen, so I just take them out for a walk. The grass in the Weiguang Farm is also very fresh. They eat a lot of it. It's not a loss, but a profit. It's not a wasted trip.
Fabian's eyes turned red and he tried hard to open them wide, not wanting the captain to laugh at him.
"Let me see if there are any more orders." Just then the communicator flashed, and he took the opportunity to lower his head and wipe the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.
There are still some orders coming in from time to time, although they are not big orders, but everyone is working very hard.
"Here, try this." Askan picked up the taro bread that the small farmer had just given to the two of them, handed one to Fabian, and took a light bite himself.
He tasted the long-lost food that was so sweet to the heart, and subconsciously began to guess what was used in it and whether it contained any toxic substances.
The next second, I shook my head, cleared all these things in my mind, and enjoyed this different little bread. Askan, you also need to relax.
