Chapter 103 Tu Xiaomao, a Great Man
A few seconds later, another figure landed beside him.
Tu Yao, holding the basket, turned around directly.
The figure also turned around immediately.
Tu Yao: ...
Tu Yao remained motionless.
The other side stopped moving.
After a while, Tu Yao couldn't help but call out in a muffled voice, "...Xiao Chi".
“I’ve done a lot of things lately.”
"But there's no one to talk to."
The smile in Xu Chi's eyes slowly faded.
"...Do you still want to say it now?"
Tu Yao was silent for a while, "...I met a grandmother who looked a lot like a family member from my past."
Xu Chiping looked at her, his gaze softening: "I know, she gave you a painting."
Tu Yao continued, "I also helped her get her painting back and solved the problem for Lin Jing and Lin Yue."
Xu Chi made no attempt to hide his admiration: "You did a great job. The Jiang family started out in industry, and their subsidiary, Dayun Logistics, is currently the largest logistics company in the inland region."
Business people are always quick to sense opportunities and pragmatic.
Having offended the Jiang family, several shareholders of Lin Qiuping Transportation Company were eager to sever ties with him.
"He's currently overwhelmed with his own problems and won't cause any more trouble for Lin Jing and Lin Yue."
Tu Yao glared at him angrily, puffing out her cheeks: "Xiao Chi, how do you know everything!"
"Aren't you going to pretend at all?!"
Xu Chi chuckled and said softly, "...If I keep pretending, I'm afraid you won't want to be my friend anymore."
Tu Yao was taken aback and instinctively hugged the basket tighter.
The young man moved closer, his gaze fixed intently on her round head.
"...So Tu Xiaomao, I've come to apologize. Can we still be friends?"
Tu Yao muttered, "You think we can just be friends like that? Wouldn't that make me lose face?"
She looked up and glared at him menacingly: "...Unless you say Tu Xiaomao is a great person!"
Xu Chi was taken aback, and an uncontrollable smile appeared in his eyes.
"Tu Xiaomao is a really good person."
Tu Yao shrugged, her face instantly becoming magnanimous: "Alright, then we'll still be friends!"
Xu Chi couldn't resist ruffling her hair and whispering:
"Tu Xiaomao is the best person in the world."
Tu Yao, hands on hips: "Of course!"
"younger sister!"
Just as she finished speaking, a voice came from behind her, and Tu Yao quickly turned around.
Lin Jing ran over from across the long stall entrance, his face beaming with joy.
Seeing the young man beside Tu Yao, he asked in confusion, "Who is he...?"
Xu Chi stopped smiling and nodded to him, saying, "Hello."
Tu Yao introduced: "Xiao Chi."
"Oh, Koike, I know, my sister's friend."
After greeting everyone, Lin Jing shared the good news with Tu Yao: "Sister! Someone has taken a liking to the two wild ginsengs I have."
Tu Yao's eyes lit up instantly, and she recalled for a moment: "...Is it what you just said, that some rare medicinal herbs are resold several times?"
Although the price will be several times lower than the actual value, such customers are rare and hard to come by.
At least she never encountered it when she was in Crane Village.
"No, no, no!"
Lin Jing waved his hands repeatedly, his expression unable to hide his excitement: "This time it's not going through several hands, it's one hand! Lin Yue and I will deliver it directly to them in a bit!"
Tu Yao's eyes are even brighter now!
"So, little sister, I'll find someone to take you there first..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Jing's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the screen and quickly answered it.
After hearing this, a hint of hesitation flashed across his face, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll deliver it to you now."
As soon as he hung up the phone, his expression became more serious.
Tu Yao leaned closer: "Is something the matter?"
Lin Jing hesitated, "Yes, it's an old customer who wants me to deliver a batch of goods for him right now."
But now...
Tu Yao continued, "Are you worried that Lin Yue won't be able to handle it all by himself?"
Lin Jing nodded. If Lin Yue's leg was fine, Lin Jing would feel comfortable letting him go alone, but given the current situation, what if he bumped into something on the way...
Tu Yao thought for a moment, then said, "Then you go deliver the goods, and I'll go with him!"
Lin Jing immediately waved his hand: "This... how can we do this? We brought you out to have fun today, how can we let you do chores? It's too tiring."
Tu Yao was clearly intrigued: "I'm not tired at all. I've already sold all the mountain goods you gave me. I want to go see what's going on."
Learn how to sell, how to price and sign contracts; you might find it useful when you return to Crane Village.
Lin Jing: ?
"Sold out already? How could it be so fast? You sold it to..."
Tu Yao shoved the basket directly into Xu Chi's hands, grinning, "Sold it to him."
Lin Jing: ? ? ?
He looked at the young man beside him.
Xu Chi smiled slightly: "Yes, it's sold to me."
Seeing Tu Yao's eager expression, Lin Jing nodded subconsciously.
"...Alright, then you go."
...
On the other side, Lin Yue was waiting in the parking lot, holding a wooden box. In front of him was a huge black modified car.
Hearing the noise, he turned around and froze instantly.
Looking at the girl who was covered in sweat from running, he said in a hoarse voice, "...How come it's you?"
Tu Yao wiped her sweat and gave a brief explanation.
So how do we get there?
The girl in front of me was clearly excited, and it was highly likely that she had volunteered.
Lin Yue pursed his lips. He had also watched a few episodes of that variety show and knew that Tu Yao was growing button mushrooms.
She seemed to have dedicated all her passion to that village, seizing every opportunity to prepare for her return.
Lin Yue said in a deep voice, "The other party said that they specially sent a car to take us there, and we would sign the contract on the spot."
As soon as he finished speaking, two middle-aged men in suits walked over.
He glanced at Tu Yao, somewhat surprised: "Why is it a young girl now?"
Without waiting for their reply, he said directly, "Get in the car first. The contract has been drafted and is just waiting for you to sign it."
After the car was modified, its chassis was almost half a meter higher than that of a regular car.
This was clearly a difficult situation for Lin Yue. Just then, his arm was suddenly supported by a gentle force.
He subconsciously turned his head, and Tu Yao looked at him with a smile.
Lin Yue was stunned for a moment, then, with her help, he steadily got into the car.
After a moment of silence, he also extended his hand.
Just as Tu Yao was about to get into the car, a hand reached out in front of her.
Looking up, the boy still had a dark expression on his face, staring straight ahead.
Tu Yao chuckled and, with his help, got into the car.
The car started quickly.
This was Tu Yao's first time riding in a modified car. After the modifications, the car was much larger than a regular car, and the interior was quite empty.
She subconsciously twitched her nose and then paused, startled.
It has a faint, lingering herbal scent...
Tu Yao frowned, took another sniff, and made sure she wasn't mistaken.
Not only that, it also smells like a mix of herbs.
Tu Yao looked up, and from her angle, she could clearly see the man in the passenger seat.
Tu Yao stared at him for a while, then suddenly asked, "...Uncle, who wants to buy our wild ginseng?"
The man seemed surprised that she would ask that question, and turned to look at her.
Seeing her floral print outfit and innocent demeanor, the wariness in his eyes lessened somewhat.
Just a casual remark:
"The Jiang family."
