◎Going home◎
If you don’t want to talk about it, then don’t talk about it. Wei Xuan didn’t want to know, so she rolled her eyes and didn’t continue discussing this with him.
Just when he was about to ask him if he wanted to eat, there was a knock on the door. It was Cheng Shao, who came to ask Jiang Che if he wanted to go out for dinner with him.
Jiang Che turned his head and glanced at the leftovers of Wei Xuan's meal on the table and rejected him: "I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while. You go and eat."
After closing the door, Wei Xuan said with a smile, "It's interesting that three grown men went out to do something and came back without even remembering to eat." She took out a box of clean rice from the other side of the table and handed it to Jiang Che, "Eat quickly."
Jiang Che didn't mind Wei Xuan's leftovers, he took the lunch box and started eating.
After dinner, they took a nap together, and in the afternoon they got up and went to the clothing wholesale market again.
This time she came mainly to observe with her eyes, and Wei Xuan was not in a hurry to place an order. After she finished talking on the phone with Jiang Sanjie in the evening, Wei Xuan determined which styles of clothes she had sent back last time were more popular. Then she selected a few different ones based on the characteristics of these styles and sent them back to Beijing.
After finishing all these, Jiang Che took some time to take Wei Xuan to Pengcheng for a tour. When they came back, they received a message from Cai Jiahuai, saying that all the goods had been collected, and gave the address for Jiang Che and Cheng Shao to pick up the goods at 8 o'clock in the evening.
...
...
These past few days, Jiang Che had been busy selecting styles for the clothing store with Wei Xuan. It was only today that he found out that Cheng Shao had rented a house in Yangcheng for a short period of time, specifically to store these goods.
Jiang Che’s electronic watch was fine. A hundred and fifty dollars’ worth of watches could be put in a big bag and taken away.
But Cheng Shao had a lot of stuff, worth fifteen thousand dollars, a total of nearly two hundred tape recorders, which were too much to move with just the two of them.
Fortunately, Cai Jiahuai had some connections and helped him find a car to transport the goods to the short-term rental house.
Cheng Shao was worried about the goods in the short-term rental house, so he slept here at night instead of going back to the guesthouse. Jiang Che watched him lock the doors and windows, then go back alone with his watch.
Wei Xuan was in the guesthouse, and she was relieved when she saw Jiang Che coming back: "Is the matter done?"
"Don't worry, it's safe. Look, I got my watch back."
Wei Xuan opened the bag and took a look, then asked, "How much is in here?"
"One hundred and fifty dollars, ten dollars a piece, a total of one thousand five hundred dollars."
Wei Xuan nodded and tied the bag again. This price is indeed very cheap. It is easy to sell an electronic watch like this for dozens of yuan in Beijing.
Jiang Che had been out for a while and was covered in dust. He asked the front desk for some hot water and took a quick shower before going to bed.
After both of them lay down, Jiang Che told Wei Xuan about his plan.
"Wife, do you think we should buy a washing machine and a refrigerator?" Jiang Che was very excited to see so many imported home appliances when he went to the wholesale market with Cai Jiahuai last time. These things are not easy to buy in Beijing, but now they are ready-made in front of him, and the price is cheap. It's such a good opportunity, don't waste it.
A refrigerator is fine, but Wei Xuan really wants a washing machine.
But: "How do I ship it back after I buy it?"
Jiang Che thought about it and said, "I'll ask Cheng Shao tomorrow. If he has a way to transport the things back, then we can save ourselves the trouble and take a ride with him. If he doesn't have a way, I'll ask Brother Xue. He should have a way."
"You just have to make the decision on these matters. Don't force yourself. If you miss this time, you will definitely have another chance to buy it. After all, you got through this before when you didn't have a washing machine or refrigerator at home."
"Okay, I know."
The next day, Jiang Che got up and went to the short-term rental house to find Cheng Shao.
Cheng Shao had no idea what to do. He was stunned when Jiang Che asked him, "Are you going back?"
He thought about it all night last night, and the more he thought about it, the more regretful he became. He really couldn't think of any way to transport so many radios back. If he had known earlier, he would not have shipped so many goods. It was his fault that he was blinded by money at the time. Now he was trapped here, what should he do?
Thinking that after Jiang Che and Wei Xuan went back, he would be the only one left in Yangcheng without knowing anyone, he finally panicked.
"I'm not going back for now. I want to buy a washing machine and a refrigerator for my family, so I wanted to ask you if there is any way to ship these goods back."
Cheng Shao shook his head and said desperately: "I have no choice. I have thought about it. If it really doesn't work, I will just take the bus to transport the things back myself." Of course, this process will definitely be painful, but this is the only way he can think of.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Che said, "I have a solution."
"Really?" Cheng Shao raised his head. If Jiang Che had a way, he wouldn't have to stay alone in Yangcheng! Thinking of this, he looked at Jiang Che with anticipation.
Jiang Che got goose bumps when he looked at him: "Okay, stop looking at me like that. I'll go ask for you, but I'm not sure if it will work."
"That's great. I will never forget Brother Jiang's kindness."
"Okay, okay, don't talk about this. I'm going to make a call. You wait here for my news."
Jiang Che went out and found a nearby telephone booth and called the transport team.
Coincidentally, the person who answered the phone was Xue Bin.
Xue Bin obviously recognized Jiang Che's voice: "Something?" If he remembered correctly, Fang Zhiyuan had just brought a truckload of goods to Jiang Che's store this morning. Based on past experience, he shouldn't need the truck again so soon.
Jiang Che and Xue Bin have known each other for several years. They no longer need to be as polite when talking to each other. He simply said, "Brother Xue, I'm in the south right now and I need a car for something. I wonder if it's convenient for you to send a car to Yangcheng."
South? Xue Bin pondered over Jiang Che's words and had a rough idea.
It is possible to go to the south, there are cars and people, so it is not inconvenient. But in business, it is definitely not possible to do it without enough money.
Nowadays, driving long distances is somewhat dangerous. If you are robbed, not only will you lose your goods, but you may also lose your life. In addition, they take private jobs. Short trips are fine, but if they are caught, they may lose their jobs. When he takes people out, he must make sure they can make money.
Xue Bin did not ask Jiang Che for a high price. After some calculation, he quoted a reasonable price.
Jiang Che thought he could find a price he could accept, but it was not his business after all, and whether it was feasible or not still needed Cheng Shao's approval, so he said to the person on the other end of the phone: "I still need to discuss it with my friend. Whether it is feasible or not, I will call you back in ten minutes."
"Okay, I'll wait for your call."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Che went back to the short-term rental house to find Cheng Shao and told him what happened. Cheng Shao excitedly stood up and took two steps: "Okay, I have no objection to this price. Brother Jiang, I really want to thank you this time. Please help me tell your friend to come as soon as possible."
Jiang Che nodded and went back to call Xue Bin.
Xue Bin must have been waiting right next to the phone, because the call was connected as soon as it rang.
"Hello."
"Hey, Brother Xue, my friend said it's okay, when do you think you can come over?"
Xue Bin thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe tomorrow. We'll probably be there the day after tomorrow morning."
I'll arrive the day after tomorrow morning, rest here for a day, and go back in the evening.
Jiang Che told him the address of the guesthouse: "Just come find me here."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Che did not delay any longer here and went back to look for his wife. If nothing unexpected happened, when Xue Bin and the others came, Cheng Shao should go back with his car. Jiang Che also wanted to go home. He had not seen his daughter for a long time and he missed her. He also had to worry about the business in the store if he left it for too long.
In fact, think about it, they arrived in Yangcheng on November 27th, and today is their ninth day in Yangcheng. Originally, they planned to be back in half a month, and the time it took to wait for Xue Bin and others to come, plus the time wasted on the road, was almost that long.
Jiang Che went back and told Wei Xuan about it, and Wei Xuan nodded in agreement: "I want to go back too. Brother Xue will arrive the day after tomorrow, right? That means there are still two days left. The second batch of goods sent back today should have arrived as well. I'll call Third Sister tonight to ask about sales. I'll make the final adjustment to the goods in the store based on what she said the next two days, and it should be about time."
"Then I'll go buy the ticket in advance if I have nothing to do this afternoon."
"good."
After calculating the time when Xue Bin and the others would arrive, Jiang Che took some time to go to the wholesale market and buy a washing machine and a refrigerator. He had been there before with Cai Jiahuai, and the boss knew him, so this trip went smoothly. After buying the things, he took them directly to Cheng Shao's short-term rental house.
Xue Bin and his friends arrived on the 7th. Jiang Che deliberately did not go anywhere that morning and waited for them in the guesthouse.
Cheng Shao was also there. As soon as they arrived, Cheng Shao arranged for them to rest in the room he had booked in the guesthouse. Cheng Shao had never returned the room, and it came in handy now.
After settling the people, Cheng Shao was worried about the goods left in the short-term rental house, so he told Jiang Che and hurried back.
Jiang Che took Wei Xuan to the wholesale market. Since it was their last visit and they didn't know when they would come again, they bought a lot of goods this time.
They came to Guangzhou this time with all their belongings, which totaled less than 22,000 yuan. They didn't spend much on the first two purchases, and with the 1,500 yuan they spent on the watch, they only spent more than 5,000 yuan.
That means they bought 17,000 yuan worth of goods this time, which is one third more than the opening price.
The two of them came out of the wholesale market again after they had almost spent all the money they had.
When the two returned to the guesthouse, Xue Bin and the others had already gotten up. The five of them had dinner together in the evening. After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest.
It was not until late at night that Xue Bin and another driver got up and called Jiang Che, and the three of them quietly drove the car to the door of the short-term rental house. Cheng Shao had been waiting for them in the house. When he heard the noise and confirmed that it was them, he opened the door. The four of them loaded the goods into the car without anyone noticing and drove away.
The train ticket Jiang Che bought was for ten o'clock the next morning, so after seeing them off, he returned to the guesthouse and hugged his wife for a good sleep. He slept until eight o'clock the next morning, and then he and Wei Xuan had breakfast before slowly heading to the train station.
This time they didn't buy sleeper tickets, so they got on the train and found a seat. As more and more people got on, Jiang Che realized how uncomfortable it was to sit on a hard seat. Especially when Wei Xuan was still pregnant. She couldn't stand keeping the same posture for more than 20 hours.
No, I have to find a way to change to a sleeper berth.
