Time passed quickly. In just seven days, Sun Weiguo delivered goods to the regiment seven times. The goods were different each time, but most of them were fruits, meat, and grain. Among them, grain was the most sold.
There was no way. When Chu Tian was collecting supplies, he collected the most grain. It can be said that out of the more than 10 million yuan at that time, 5 to 6 million were used to buy various grains and cooking oils, of which rice and flour accounted for the largest part. About 2 million were used to buy various meats, and the remaining 2 million were used to buy various miscellaneous items.
However, many of the things he bought at the time, such as various modern snacks, fast food, seafood, and some daily necessities and bedding, cannot be sold now. Even if he didn't sell them, he was a little hesitant to give them to Yao Xiujuan and her daughter to eat or use. In short, if he didn't find an opportunity to go to the city, he would not dare to take them out...
Alas, there is no way, he can't share it with others, he can only enjoy it secretly occasionally...
Sun Weiguo handed the money he collected today to Chu Tian. Seeing that Chu Tian took out three yuan and handed it to him as he did the previous times, he put it directly into his pocket. After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother Tian, today Brother Li Gang asked me if you could get some more rapeseed oil?"
Chu Tian, "What's wrong? He wants it?"
Sun Weiguo scratched his head and said, "Yeah."
Chu Tian touched his chin, thought for a moment and said, "Of course it is possible, but the oil is all loose, and there is no way to package it without a glass bottle..."
Chu Tian had initially sold the oil directly from the plastic bottles in his space, figuring he could just tear off the labels. But a few days ago, while preparing his supplies and planning to sell another batch of barrels, he accidentally noticed some printed words on the bottom while peeling off the labels. These words weren't inked with colored ink, but were indented into the bottle itself! They couldn't be wiped off, and they couldn't be scraped off either!
Seeing this, Chu Tian immediately decided not to sell the oil. No, it should be said that he did not plan to sell it directly...
Sun Weiguo was stunned for a moment, "Glass bottle?"
Chu Tian nodded slightly, "Yes, the boss told me a few days ago that they got a batch of soybean oil, but they don't have the channels to get the bottles, so they can't sell it for the time being!"
"How about this, you tell Brother Li Gang that if he can get a glass bottle, I can give him a fifty-cent discount on each kilogram of soybean oil!"
Sun Weiguo thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Then I'll go there again later?"
Chu Tian blinked, "Are you in such a hurry? Wouldn't it be different if we go tomorrow?"
Sun Weiguo scratched his head embarrassedly when he heard this. "Tomorrow is the 28th day of the lunar calendar. I want to make two more trips before the New Year..."
"...Okay, I'll go with you this time. I also want to go to the post office."
Chu Tian and Sun Weiguo stared at each other for a long time, and Chu Tian was defeated and sighed helplessly. In fact, he understood Sun Weiguo's idea. If he ran for two more days, he could earn an extra six yuan. Think about these seven days, not counting the first day, he ran for eight days in total. In these eight days, he earned twenty-four yuan, plus the six yuan, that's thirty yuan!
Thirty yuan is just the price of a fast food meal for Chu Tian, who came from the 21st century. But for Sun Weiguo, who only earns fifty or sixty yuan a year, it is a huge sum of money...
Sun Weiguo was surprised. "Go to the post office? Are you going to pick up some letters? Brother Tian, I can help you get it..."
Chu Tian waved his hand, "I'm not picking up something, I'm mailing something. I originally planned to mail it when I went to the regiment after the New Year..."
"Wait for me for a moment, I'll go back and get some things."
As he spoke, Chu Tian walked towards the educated youth point. Before the family split up, he had always wanted to send some things to Grandma Chu who lived in his hometown. Later, due to a series of reasons including the family split up, he forgot about it.
It was just two days ago that I heard Aunt Wu say that they have relatives in their hometown. She plans to take Sun Guoan back to visit her hometown after the fifth day of the New Year and come back before the spring plowing season.
Chu Tian also felt guilty. Although he had never met Grandma Chu and Uncle Chu, Chu Tian still had memories before he was twelve years old. He clearly remembered how Grandma Chu and others cared for and loved him when Liu Zhaodi ignored him.
When Chu Tian got home, Yao Xiujuan had just taken Wu Ya to Aunt Wu's house again, so there was no one at home. This gave Chu Tian the opportunity to enter the space conveniently. He picked and chose in the space for a long time and chose some things that were durable and hard to buy in the countryside.
Sun Weiguo looked at Chu Tian carrying a large, packed bag and exclaimed, "Brother Tian, this bag of yours must weigh at least thirty pounds, right?"
Chu Tian looked down at the package on the carriage and said, "It's not over thirty pounds, but it's over twenty pounds."
Sun Weiguo, "..."
The two of them braved the wind and snow for nearly two hours, and it was already past five in the afternoon when they arrived at the regiment. Fortunately, the working hours in the Northwest are two hours later than in Kou Li, so the post office is still open.
(In Xinjiang, Jiayuguan is considered the border between "Kouli" and "Kouwai". "Kouli" refers to cities outside Xinjiang, while "Kouwai" refers to the frontier.)
Chu Tian came to the counter of the post office with the package in his arms and said to the staff inside, "Hello, comrade, I want to mail a package."
There were several staff members at the counter. Two of the older-looking ones remained motionless. However, a young-looking girl approached enthusiastically with a delivery slip and a pen. "Comrade, where are you sending this to?"
