Chapter 138 Wedding Eve
"Wait a minute, He Chuan and I will go out with you. We plan to pick out some furniture for the courtyard." Su Tao put on his coat and pulled He Chuan to follow him out.
"Have you seen that courtyard house? It's pretty good, right? It's just that no one has lived in it for a long time. So I'll ask our two aunts to help you clean it up. Then you can buy furniture and move it in." Wang Man walked forward and said.
"Thank you, Auntie. I was just wondering where to find someone to do the housework." There were no housekeeping services these days, so I didn't know where to find someone. Usually, neighbors would introduce someone, or they would help out and then pay them a little.
My aunt really came as a timely help, solving Su Tao's urgent problem. She would then give a red envelope to the two aunts to express her gratitude.
"Where are you going? Let me take you there first and then we'll go look at the hotel?" Wang Man said.
"What do you mean? We can just go by ourselves." Su Tao felt a little sorry that his aunt had already been troubled enough by the previous matter, and now they had to use a car temporarily to delay their work.
"It's okay. We're all busy with your wedding anyway. Your wedding is our top priority right now."
"Okay then, thank you, aunt. Let's go to the furniture market in Dongcheng District." Su Tao gave the location.
Wang Man was silent for a moment after hearing this. "Then the place you are going to is a bit far..."
Su Tao thought it was too far and inconvenient, "If it's inconvenient, forget it."
"That's not what I meant. It's just a short drive from here. I'm worried about how you're going to transport the furniture you bought back to the courtyard?" Wang Man said.
Su Tao was stunned when she heard this. She hadn't even considered the delivery issue. Wouldn't they help with the delivery of furniture? How did others buy it then?
Su Tao didn't know that furniture wasn't much bought here. Most people only bought one or two pieces, and they'd find a way to transport them back on a cart or tricycle. Getting together a complete set of furniture—three turns and one ring—was a truly enviable feat. How many ordinary families could afford to buy everything at once? Most people bought one piece each day, and then added another when they had more money.
Su Tao's expression instantly fell. What should he do? If he had known earlier, he should have let He Chuan buy the truck first.
He Chuan's eyes lit up upon hearing this, his spirits rising as if he saw a business opportunity. Currently, freight transport in China is still underdeveloped, largely relying on institutional transport fleets, and vehicles are in short supply. If you want to transport something large, you have to find connections in institutional units to borrow a vehicle.
If he opened his own freight company, he could not only deliver goods over long distances and resell them, but he could also negotiate transportation deals with state-owned manufacturers and businesses in the city, and urban distribution would also be a big piece of the pie.
"Well, you guys go and choose first, and then you can decide. Then call your cousin, and I'll ask him to find a truck for you to go to the furniture market and transport it back for you tomorrow. Anyway, it takes a day to finish the cleaning, so it's just right to move the furniture back tomorrow." Wang Man said after thinking for a while.
"Oh, thank you, aunt." Su Tao said gratefully.
Wang Man couldn't drive, so the driver was a security guard. He Chuan sat in the passenger seat, while Su Tao, Su Li's aunt, and He Yanzhi squeezed into the back seat. Su Li was holding He Yanzhi, so there was just enough space, a little tight.
Su Tao had forgotten that the rear seats of modern cars are not as spacious and comfortable as those of modern cars. If he had known this, he would have taken the trouble to change cars himself.
Fortunately, Su Tao's house is not too far from the Dongcheng Furniture Market, but the Siheyuan is farther away from the furniture market.
It took more than ten minutes to drive there. When Su Tao and He Chuan got out of the car, the space inside suddenly became much more spacious.
Su Tao Hechuan watched the car go away before turning around and walking into the furniture market.
