Chapter 89 "This time I really don't have a cent left."



Hearing this, Carpenter Jiang stopped and looked back. Seeing that it was Ran Qiu, his expression softened a little.

He often dealt with Ran Qiu, who was a gentle person and had accompanied him to the mountains to look for wood before.

But this time, he didn't come alone.

There were three pretty girls following behind him. Judging from their clothes, they must be educated youth from the educated youth camp.

Carpenter Jiang looked at them curiously, then turned to Ran Qiu and asked, "Who are they..."

He knew Ran Qiu well. He was the type who usually never spoke to girls, but this time he was acting out of character.

Ran Qiu introduced Song Zhi and the other three and told them the purpose of their visit.

"They are all educated youth from the educated youth camp, and they want to come and order a batch of furniture."

When Carpenter Jiang heard that they were here to customize furniture again, he didn't look very happy.

The previous batch has not been dealt with yet.

They had been here for a while and had listened to what was said.

Song Zhi finally understood that the buyer didn't get any advantage, so he was angry and didn't want the furniture.

She looked at the furniture, which included beds, cabinets, and chairs, basically everything she needed now.

"You really don't want this batch of furniture?" she asked, looking at the thin man.

Seeing so many people coming, the man knew that Carpenter Jiang wouldn't dare to do anything to him, so he suddenly became arrogant again and raised his chin and said, "Yes, I don't want it, unless you can give me a discount."

He had made a good calculation. Now that a new customer had come, Carpenter Jiang had to keep himself steady if he wanted to make the next deal.

Then he just took advantage of it.

Unexpectedly, the next second, the fair and tender girl said readily, "Then I want this batch of furniture."

The man was a little dumbfounded for a moment.

"You want it?"

Song Zhi nodded: "Don't you want it? Then give it to me."

The man never expected Song Zhi to be so straightforward. He gritted his teeth, took a look at the furniture, and finally left with gritted teeth.

He is not well off and cannot afford the money unless it is cheaper.

After watching the man leave dejectedly, Carpenter Jiang suppressed his joy and asked Song Zhi one more question.

"Song Zhiqing, are you sure you want this batch of furniture? There are three wardrobes, two beds, an eight-person table, and four chairs."

This adds up to a considerable amount of money.

Although Carpenter Jiang knew that the educated youth who went to the countryside had some assets, he also heard that the educated youth site had just suffered a disaster and that most of their belongings had been lost. Now they didn't even have a place to live.

Although the person was brought here by Ran Qiu, Carpenter Jiang was still unsure.

Song Zhi nodded affirmatively and asked, "Master Jiang, do you have any beds here? We need three beds."

Hearing her say this, Carpenter Jiang was delighted. Since he became a carpenter, he had dealt with many people and had some ability to judge people. Seeing how calmly she spoke, he knew that she was a wealthy person. He had a big client here!

Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled and said quickly, "What a coincidence! I just happened to have a newly made bed. If you want them all, I can use a tractor to deliver them to you!"

When they heard that everything they wanted was available, the three of them were very happy.

Now that they have a bed, they don’t have to sleep on the floor.

"Both."

Song Zhi responded readily.

"But Master Jiang, we want so much, can you give us a discount on the price?" Song Zhi looked at Carpenter Jiang and spoke with a smile.

Hearing this, the smile on Carpenter Jiang's face froze for a moment, then he perked up and started bargaining with them.

"I'm also a small business owner. I've chosen the best wood to make these furniture. They're definitely strong and durable. This price should be fair."

"Of course we trust Master Jiang's craftsmanship, but our educated youth camp has just suffered a disaster, and we're really short of money right now." Rong Zhengqing offered some sweet talk, lowering the price further. She gestured with her fingers, "How about this amount?"

Carpenter Jiang was very pleased with her words, but the price was too much for him to agree, and he didn't nod for a long time.

There were four people on the other side, and he was alone. He was not at an advantage in terms of numbers, not to mention that they were all very eloquent. Carpenter Jiang was really no match for them. In addition, he had the relationship with Ran Qiu. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and said, "Forget it, forget it. For the sake of Teacher Ran Qiu, I'll give you a 30% discount."

"Okay, thank you, Master." Song Zhi thanked him quickly and immediately took out his wallet to pay.

After receiving the money, Carpenter Jiang lamented, "This time I really won't make any money at all."

Having said that, he couldn't suppress the upturned corners of his mouth.

This wave of heavy losses has emptied Song Zhi's wallet.

Carpenter Jiang happily found someone to come over, borrowed a tractor, tied all the things they bought to the tractor, and dragged it to Ran Qiu's house.

Seeing that the three little girls had no strength left, they called for help to move the furniture into the room.

They each had one of the three wardrobes.

"Where does Song Zhiqing want to put this table?"

Carpenter Jiang pointed at the eight-immortals table on the tractor and asked Song Zhi what he meant.

There is only one eight-immortal table, so it is naturally impossible to divide it equally.

"Just put it in the living room." Song Zhi took a look and said directly.

This way they can use it together when they eat in the future.

Carpenter Jiang quickly worked with others to put the eight-immortals table in the living room.

"Master Jiang, please give me another desk."

Song Zhi looked at his room. He already had a wardrobe and a bed, except for a table. So he walked up to Carpenter Jiang and spoke.

When Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing heard this, they spoke up.

"We want one too, Master Jiang. Please give us one each."

Suddenly, there was work to do for three more desks. Carpenter Jiang smiled so much that wrinkles appeared on his face, and he nodded happily.

After seeing off Carpenter Jiang and the others, the three of them returned to their rooms and put their things in order again.

Song Zhi's things had already been sorted and arranged, so now all she had to do was put them in the closet, which didn't take much effort.

She re-made the bed and took out a mattress from the space supermarket to put underneath.

She still prefers a softer bed.

After some busy work, her little room finally looked presentable.

She shook her completely deflated wallet and sighed softly.

"Now I really don't have any money left."

Now he can't go to work, has no work points, and has spent all his money, which makes Song Zhi worried.

She suddenly thought of the pile of things in her space. It seemed that she had to find an opportunity to see if she could pick out a few things to sell for some living expenses.
