Chapter 440 Buying a Truck



Xiulan shook her head and said, "I'm not worried about that. I just want to know the progress of your work. You haven't told me these two days."

She didn’t know what Lin Heng was doing and she always felt empty.

"Well, I was going to tell you slowly before we go to bed." Lin Heng said with a smile.

He liked to chat and flirt with Xiulan after finishing their work.

"Is that so?" Xiulan blinked, and her snow-white face turned a little red.

After finishing the meal, we cleaned up the dishes and sat outside to enjoy the cool air for half an hour. It was still very cool outside on a summer night, and the stars were shining, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

Lighting a little rosin to keep the mosquitoes away, they played checkers in the yard for a while.

After enjoying the cool air, I let the child pee and then went back to the house to sleep.

The children exercise vigorously during the day and fall asleep quickly at night, just like piglets.

Lin Heng told them stories to lull them to sleep, and when the mosquito net was drawn, it was just him and Xiulan's world.

They did whatever they wanted, and everything was just right with the faint starlight shining in from the window.

Lin Heng liked to take off Xiulan's clothes piece by piece, just like he was opening a treasure.

In response, Xiulan always turned her face away with a blush, not daring to look at Lin Heng.

"Wife!"

As Lin Heng called out, Xiulan hugged his neck with her arms.

Everything else fell into place naturally, just like the flow of water, with its ups and downs, its gentleness and its rapidity.

Lin Heng has lived his whole life, having been impoverished and also becoming a millionaire. He has always been thinking about the purpose of living and what kind of happiness is true happiness.

He believes that humans are not animals, but they do not necessarily have to have extremely noble pursuits. The most important thing in life is to have a clear conscience. As long as you want to do something, you should try it.

Back to the present, he found what he loved and what he desired.

He likes to do some work with his parents, listen to their conversations, and lead them to live a good life.

He likes being with Xiulan. No matter what he does, he feels safe as long as she is around.

They went about their daily lives doing all sorts of things under the sun, taking their time together.

Under the starry sky, he liked to see her blushing face as she cooperated with him, trying to hold back from making a sound but unable to.

I like that even though she is very shy, she is willing to try things she has never done before in order to make him happier.

Of course, he was willing to do anything for her.

What he desires most is a person with whom he is united physically and mentally. They want to live a leisurely life together, supporting each other and feeling the passing of time.

In a blink of an eye, it was already early the next morning. After waking up, Lin Heng couldn't help but be intimate with Xiulan and woke her up who was still asleep.

Constant daily exercise makes him strong and healthy, and he is different in every aspect.

After breakfast, Lin Heng called his elder brother to continue his work.

After running around for another three days, Lin Heng brought back a lot of things.

He stored all these things on the second floor of his house, wrapped them in newspapers and put some straw under them to prevent them from getting damaged.

"Honey, are you planning to take all these to Ancheng to sell them?" Xiulan asked as she watched Lin Heng sorting these things.

"Of course not. I only take a part of it. If the money from the sales is not enough, I will sell some more." Lin Heng responded with a smile.

A conservative estimate is that about 60 percent of these things are genuine.

He didn't buy them all to sell, but to keep some at home so that his descendants could exchange them for money.

This is a very cost-effective investment. He read a lot of books on antiques just to get a general idea and then collect some from everywhere.

Antiques are valuable in prosperous times, and gold is valuable in troubled times. China will always be in a period of peace and prosperity in the future, so it is the right choice to save some antiques in advance in this era.

"Oh, so when are you planning to go to Ancheng?" Xiulan asked again.

"Stay here for the next two days. We may have to go to Ancheng several times this time, and we can't finish all the things in one go." Lin Heng put the things away, turned around and looked at Xiulan and said.

"It's not safe to go outside. You have to call your eldest brother, or even better, call someone else." Xiulan said that she didn't object to Lin Heng going out to do serious work, but she was afraid of the danger.

Lin Heng nodded and said, "That's what I've been thinking about. This time I need to take the stuff over, but my sidecar won't work, and it's not convenient to rent a car from someone with a driver."

As he spoke this, he and Xiulan walked downstairs. He had already picked out the things he was going to sell and placed them aside.

The two of them went downstairs together. Xiulan poured a glass of water and took a sip. She looked at Lin Heng again, reached out and took off a spider web on his head, and then suggested: "How about this, you first use the money to buy a truck, and then drive the truck to Ancheng with the antiques, isn't it better?"

"ah!!"

Hearing this, Lin Heng suddenly exclaimed and looked at Xiulan in shock who was standing so close to him.

Her oval face was very fair, and her beautiful eyes looked at him curiously: "What's wrong, do you think this method doesn't work?"

"No, I'm just shocked that you would make such a bold suggestion." Lin Heng said to Xiulan.

He had thought about this method, but had not made up his mind because it was too risky.

Buying a truck would take all the cash they had now, and they would even have to sell some of their good stuff to get enough.

He spent all the money he earned in the past few years in one go, and it was still unknown whether he would be successful in selling antiques in Ancheng, so he had not made a decision yet.

He was really surprised that Xiulan actually gave this suggestion directly.

Xiulan smiled and said, "I think this is the best way. You have already passed the driving test, so you will have to buy one sooner or later. We need a car to transport various goods at home, and we can't always rent a car. Besides, even if we have a truck, even if we run out of money, we can still make money by transporting goods for others. If we are suddenly short of money, we still have ginseng and other good things that can be exchanged for money immediately."

"You're right. You see things more clearly than I do. Let's buy it. Do you want to tell my parents?" Lin Heng took a sip of water and looked at his wife with a smile.

He wanted to hug his wife tightly. This was his wife. Usually, he didn't spend much money. She saved her money like a little squirrel. When it came to the critical moment, she was not vague at all.

Xiulan said, "Just tell me, explain the interests clearly, I don't think my parents will refuse, it would be bad if I don't tell them."

Lin Heng nodded. He understood this, and he was even happier when Xiulan said it.

"Wife, you are so smart." Lin Heng couldn't help but hug his wife and kiss her.

"Go get some food and call mom and dad over for dinner and chat in the evening."

Xiulan smiled and said softly.

"Okay." Lin Heng nodded.

As Xiulan requested, he went out to the yard and picked some vegetables.

Xiulan looked at the child and gave instructions from the side. Because they were at home, she wore a low-necked camisole today, exposing her delicate white collarbone. Her chest was propped up high, revealing a slightly bulging but smooth belly.

She also wore a simple and cool floral skirt and sandals on her feet.

When the two of them squatted down to pick vegetables together, Lin Heng was feasting his eyes. Although he had seen the whole picture, this half-covered state in broad daylight was more tempting.

"Look at you big head ghost!"

Xiulan poked him, rolled her eyes and ignored him, letting him look at his own thing, pretending nothing happened.

Lin Heng chuckled, this kind of scenery is indeed something he never gets tired of.

After washing the vegetables, Xiulan went back to the room and changed into a shirt, buttoning all the buttons, and Lin Heng didn't even let her see it.

In the afternoon, Xiulan was cooking, and Lin Heng went over to call his parents over.

During dinner in the evening, Lin Heng took the initiative to talk to them about this matter.

"It's not worthwhile to use all the money to buy a truck. Why don't we buy a second-hand tricycle first? What if we have no money left and you suddenly need to do something?"

After hearing this, Lin's mother instinctively said that she felt the investment was too large.

Investing all the money earned over several years into this makes people feel instinctively uneasy.

Father Lin thought for a while and said, "Xiu Lan is right. If you want to buy something, buy a big and good one at a time. It will last longer. The tractor is too small and can't pull much at a time. Tomorrow we will give you the money we have saved. We also have some."

Knowing that Lin Heng had passed the driving test, he thought about this matter and felt that it was necessary.

"It's just that we don't understand this thing. You have to buy a good one and don't get cheated. If you get a bad one and it breaks in one or two years, you will lose a lot of money." Father Lin said another reminder.

"I understand. I am sure of it, Dad. Don't worry. Besides, I don't need your money. My own money is enough." Lin Heng said with a smile.

Mother Lin was still a little worried, but she didn't stop him. Instead, she looked at her daughter Caiyun who was eating next to her and asked, "Caiyun, what do you think?"

Caiyun was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment, looked at her mother and said, "Mom, I think it's a good idea to buy a truck. Roads are being built everywhere now, and development is happening everywhere. Even if I don't transport goods myself, I can still make money by transporting goods for others."

"Okay then, I have no objection." Mother Lin nodded, then looked at Lin Heng, "Son, you must choose the good ones. This is a big thing."

"I know. I'll go buy it in the next two days. I've seen it several times before." Lin Heng said.

He plans to buy the famous Dongfeng series of domestic trucks, which are affordable and have good performance, and are sufficient for hauling goods.

Although he had looked at cars in Taibai City, he planned to buy them in Ancheng because they were cheaper there and there were more options to choose from.

Father Lin stopped him and said, "I will ask someone to pick a good date. We can't just buy it casually. We have to pray for a good start."

"That's fine." Lin Heng nodded. It was indeed necessary to have a good start.

The next morning, Lin Heng told his eldest brother the news and asked him to go with him.

"That's awesome, brother. You're even going to buy a truck." After hearing this, Lin Yue patted Lin Heng on the shoulder and was genuinely happy for him.

"No, the main reason is that our family has so many industries that need transportation. It would be inconvenient without a truck." Lin Heng replied.

"Okay, call me when you want to leave." Lin Yue said.

Liu Juan beside her was even more horrified: "Lin Heng, how much does the truck cost?"

"It's hard to say. The cheapest domestic product costs more than 40,000 yuan." Lin Heng said. Domestic products are cheap, but imported ones will be very expensive.

"More than 40,000!"

Liu Juan was stunned, a little bit unable to believe that Lin Heng was going to buy such an expensive thing.

It seems that he has only been rich for several years.

Lin Heng smiled and said, "I won't say anything more. I'm going to go to Hongfeng Mountain to ask Dad what day it is."

The truck is already being bought, so there is nothing wrong in telling my family the price. It is something that needs to be known to everyone.

When we went to Hongfeng Mountain and asked, Lin's father said it was the 25th of the Gregorian calendar, which was the day after tomorrow.

Lin Heng helped with some work at Hongfeng Mountain, then brought some eggs home to tell Xiulan and his elder brother about it.

They will leave for the city the day after tomorrow, and will be back the day after tomorrow.

In the past two days, Lin Heng sorted out his money and took the bezoar with him. If the money was not enough, he would sell it.

For example, I won’t take the wild ginseng. It’s getting harder and harder to buy as time goes by. I won’t sell it unless I’m extremely short of money.

However, bezoar is different. Although its production is low, it is not impossible to get. He has quite a few Angong Niuhuang Pills stored at home.

In addition to the money and bezoar, Lin Heng also took a few antiques that he thought were good and prepared to go there to test the waters.

After making preparations, they had breakfast and left early on the 24th. When they left, Lin's father and mother gave their money to Lin Heng and told him to use it as he pleased. They had saved more than 3,000 yuan in the past two years.

"Really, there's no need. I have enough money." Lin Heng stuffed the money back with a smile, then drove away on his sidecar.

This time when they went to Ancheng, in addition to his eldest brother, they also went to the city to call Lin Hai, and the three of them went together.

When Lin Hai was found and called over, he was still confused: "Brother Lin, what are we going to do in Ancheng?"

"You'll know when you get there. It's a secret for now. All you need to know is that I'll pay for your food, drink, toilet, and sleep along the way. Just think of it as a trip." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"That's great. I might as well go to Ancheng to see the world." Upon hearing this, Lin Hai stopped asking questions immediately and was very happy.

The three people arrived after dark in the afternoon, and they rented a parking space to rest at night.

The next morning, after getting up early and eating a bowl of mutton soup with steamed buns, Lin Heng drove to a machinery factory that sold trucks.

"Damn, Brother Lin, you guys are not going to sell the truck, are you?"

Lin Hai exclaimed as he looked at the many trucks parked on both sides.

"You guessed right." The two turned around and said in unison.

"Damn, big brother, let me hold your thighs tight from now on. It's as big as a truck. I can't even think about it." Lin Hai hugged Lin Heng's shoulders and said with a charming smile.

He had been in Taibai City for such a long time and fully understood the price of a truck. He was shocked after hearing what Lin Heng said.

He decided to hold Lin Heng's legs tighter than before. With him guiding the way, he would feel very happy just by drinking some soup.

"After I buy it, I'll let you drive it to experience it. I'll have the chance to teach you how to drive it later." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you Brother Lin." Lin Hai was even happier.

Lin Heng walked in and was quickly greeted. He said directly, "I want to buy a truck. How much do you sell it for?"

In the big cities here, you can buy it if you have money, without any visa. In small cities, you still need to get a ticket before buying it. Although it is smooth all the way, it is always an extra step.

"Sir, come with me. We have a lot of car models here. Tell me what you need and I will introduce it to you according to your needs."

The receptionist smiled and took the person aside and said. (End of this chapter)
