She secretly estimated Lu Jianye's financial resources in her heart, and thought, for a family like theirs, it should be no problem to take three to five thousand yuan casually, right?
"Uncle, my friend has two pieces of goods in this batch, and they are all of the same quality. You have to inspect the goods first and then pay for them." Gu Qinghuan said with a smile.
Lu Jianye frowned. Two? Wouldn't that cost four thousand yuan?
This is not a small amount of money. I can afford it, but if these watches fall into my hands, I will be in big trouble.
Think about it from another angle. If you make five dollars from two watches each, that's one thousand dollars.
You have to know that our family has worked hard to save for so many years, and the total savings is less than 5,000 yuan. It is not every day that we can make a thousand yuan by reselling it.
Gu Qinghuan saw Lu Jianye's entanglement, but she didn't push him too hard. This kind of thing should be done based on mutual consent.
After pondering for a while, Lu Jianye finally made up his mind, damn it, if you don't make money even if you have it, you're a bastard.
"Niece, when will the goods be delivered? I'm going home to raise money now."
"Uncle Lu is very courageous. I will go to my friend to get the goods. I will come back to you in an hour at most."
"Okay!" Lu Jianye was impatient and immediately went home to get the money.
Gu Qinghuan returned to the space, spent two hundred yuan, ordered two watches, and packed them in a cloth bag.
It was still early, and she was thinking in her space how to properly take out the things she bought for her husband.
We gave him 100 yuan before, and now he is spending money to buy so many things, so they are bound to be suspicious.
Later on, I had to frequently bring them food and other things.
You have to get through this sooner or later.
Gu Qinghuan made up his mind and decided to just talk about this matter directly after sending them back today.
Otherwise it will be like a bomb hanging over your head, making people feel terrified.
You have to know it sooner or later.
Thinking of this, she already felt that a storm was about to come.
Take out the cotton-padded clothes and other supplies for my parents-in-law and mother and take them back together today.
As for the two large quilts, I will find a way to send them over later.
If we try to take it together, not only will we fail to take it all, but we will also make others jealous. Last time my mother was pushed, the culprit has not been found yet. It is always bad to be too conspicuous, especially since we have such a sensitive identity.
After packing up, it's almost time.
Gu Qinghuan came to Lu Jianye's office again. Wang was already waiting inside and even made tea for Gu Qinghuan.
Gu Qinghuan was not in a hurry. He sat down and took a sip of tea seriously.
“The tea taste is rich but not bitter, the tea aroma is mellow but not astringent, fresh and sweet, with a unique flavor.”
"My niece has good taste. Do you like this Lu'an Guapian? I'll give you two boxes when you leave later."
The two of them exchanged a few polite words and then got down to business.
"Uncle Lu, the goods are all here, please check them."
Gu Qinghuan placed the bag in front of Lu Jianye and then continued to sip her tea calmly.
Lu Jianye opened each box and carefully checked it to confirm that each watch was authentic.
After confirming that it was correct, she showed a sincere smile on her face: "Niece, it's okay. Here is 4,000 yuan. Please count it."
Gu Qinghuan stood up, took the money, counted it carefully twice, and put it in his bag after making sure it was okay.
"Uncle Lu is open and honest in his work."
"Niece, when you walk out of this door, you haven't given me a watch, and I haven't given you money either," Lu Jianye whispered.
"I understand the rules, don't worry, Uncle Lu." Gu Qinghuan hoped that both of them kept the matter to themselves and would never bring it up.
"Okay, I'll take you out. By the way, take these two boxes of Lu'an Guapian."
Lu Jianye actually stuffed the tea into her hands.
Both of them were motivated by profit, so there was no friendship between them, so Gu Qinghuan accepted it generously.
When passing by the counter on his way out, Gu Qinghuan found something of interest.
Moutai.
During this special period in history, Moutai changed its trademark from Feitian to Sunflower, and adopted milky white glass bottles with red ribbons on the mouth of the bottle, on which were embroidered "China Guizhou Moutai".
It is worth mentioning that there were two patterns of this sunflower design. The scarce one is called large-leaf sunflower. As the name suggests, the leaves of the sunflower pattern on its registered trademark are very wide.
Gu Qinghuan once saw on Douyin that at a domestic auction, a bottle of 1976-year-old large-leaf sunflower Maotai shocked the whole country and was sold at a high price of 50,000 yuan.
Because the Sunflower trademark only lasted a short time and there are very few of them left in the world.
It is now 1975, and you have to wait for the big-leaf sunflower, but you can't miss the ordinary Moutai.
If the 1975 Moutai were sold in the future, wouldn’t it be worth 50,000 or 60,000 yuan per bottle?
Gu Qinghuan was secretly delighted that he had found another way to get rich.
The middlemen make a lot of money by making the difference.
"Uncle Lu, by the way, the elders in my family like Moutai liquor. I want to buy some to honor them. Can you make an exception?" A permit is required to buy Moutai liquor.
Lu Jianye is a manager after all, so he does have some rights.
"No problem. Are four bottles enough for you? If this month's license is the maximum, take another four bottles. If it's not enough for you, come back next month and I'll keep them for you."
Lu Jianye had just made a huge profit from Gu Qinghuan, so he was naturally happy to help with such a small matter.
Gu Qinghuan naturally did not disagree.
"That's great. Thank you, Uncle Lu."
Lu Jianye asked the salesperson to write out the order, and then he went to pay.
Gu Qinghuan immediately rushed over and paid the money. Four bottles of Moutai, seven yuan a bottle, a total of twenty-eight yuan, how could he not let others pay for it.
Seeing that she was not one to take advantage of others and was also very capable, Lu Jianye began to look up to her from the bottom of his heart.
The two said goodbye at the door of the grocery store.
It's getting late, it's already four in the afternoon.
Gu Qinghuan quickly got on his bike and rushed to the hospital.
On the way, I found an opportunity to put the wine and money into the space, and took out the things prepared for my parents-in-law and hung them in front of the queue.
Even though she tried to stuff it in, it was still a large package; there were simply too many things.
When they arrived at the hospital, Zhong Zijun and Cheng Shuying had already completed the discharge procedures and packed their things and were waiting for Gu Qinghuan.
After saying goodbye to their fellow patients in the same ward, the three of them packed their luggage and prepared to return to the village.
"Mom, come up and put your luggage up. I'll take you back first and then come back to pick up grandma."
There was nothing she could do about it. If she hadn't had any luggage, she would have tried to carry two people, but there was too much luggage and there were patients, so she had to be cautious.
The two of them didn't expect that Gu Qinghuan also borrowed a bicycle.
"Huanhuan, when did you learn to ride a bicycle?" Zhong Zijun remembered that when her daughter was in middle school, she fell down when she first learned to ride a bicycle and she refused to ride a bicycle again.
Gu Qinghuan had not expected this to happen, and tried to get away with it by laughing: "This is what life forces us to do, we must always look forward."
Zhong Zijun suddenly felt as if someone had grabbed her heart, and this was not the only thing she was forced to learn.
An unspeakable pain deeply tormented the mother.
It is the mother's helplessness that she cannot protect her daughter from the bullying in life and let her face these miserable people.
Because of this little episode, Zhong Zijun was very silent throughout the journey and did not notice the large and small bags that Gu Qinghuan bought.
Her moving right hand tightly grasped the edge of her daughter's clothes, her eyes were blurry, and her heart was as wet as hers.
Time flies, and that little person has already protected her from the wind and rain.
