"Captain, Auntie, Brother Baoguo, Sister-in-law Baoguo, I'd like to offer you a toast and thank you for always taking care of Xiujuan and me."
Captain Sun didn't say anything, just nodded slightly and drank the wine at the bottom of the bowl.
Ma Panni, the wife of Captain Sun, sighed and said, "I don't know what your mother is thinking. Why is she so confused? Obviously, among all your brothers, you are the only one..."
Before she finished speaking, Captain Sun glanced at her and said unhappily, "What are you talking about?"
Ma Panni realized that she had said something wrong, and looked at Chu Tian with an embarrassed expression, "Chu Tian, I said something wrong, please don't mind..."
Chu Tian smiled slightly, "Aunt, it's all over, I'm fine!"
Ma Panni smiled and said, "Yes, yes, everything is over. You and Xiujuan are both hardworking people. Your future will definitely get better and better!"
Chu Tian, "I also think that life will get better and better. Not only me, but all of our lives will get better and better..."
Sun Baoguo's wife Liu Qin, Sun Weiguo's sister-in-law, said at this time, "Brother Chu Tian, I think it's better for you to separate. Xiujuan is pregnant now and needs more nourishment. It will be inconvenient for you to cook anything if you live together..."
Chu Tian smiled and took a sip of wine. "Sister-in-law is right. I first thought about splitting up the family just so that Xiujuan, Wuya, and the baby in Xiujuan's belly could eat something good."
Captain Sun, seeing his daughter-in-law and eldest daughter-in-law talking endlessly to Chu Tian, coughed twice impatiently. His daughter-in-law and eldest daughter-in-law were very smart and immediately stopped talking. They took the empty bowls and hugged the child and went out.
"Chu Tian, do you have anything you want to tell me?"
Chu Tian looked up and saw Captain Sun looking at him. He smiled calmly and said, "Yes, I do have something to say to the Captain."
Captain Sun nodded slightly. "Baoguo and Weiguo are not talkative people. Just say what you want to say!"
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Since the captain is so direct, I will say it directly."
"I've been helping others deliver goods lately, but I can't handle it alone, so I want to find someone to help me deliver..."
After a pause, he continued, "Of course, I won't ask people to help me for free. After all, it's not just the first or second time."
Sun Weiguo looked at Chu Tian in shock. Seeing him nod slightly to him, he quickly lowered his head and closed his mouth.
Captain Sun and Sun Baoguo didn't see the interaction between Chu Tian and Sun Weiguo, nor did they pay attention to it. They were not stupid enough to know what Chu Tian meant by delivering goods. What kind of goods could make money? It was nothing more than speculation!
Sun Baoguo looked nervous, "Chu Tian, you, you and Xiujuan can do it, there's no need to do those things, if you get caught..."
Chu Tian curled his lips and said, "Brother Baoguo, I know you're worried, but we're not speculating. We're just delivering the goods. As for whether they want to sell it later or how they sell it, it has nothing to do with us!"
"Of course, the money is earned by others, and we only make a small profit from transportation..."
Chu Tian didn't want anyone to know what he had done, but Sun Weiguo often went to the Fantuanchang, and he always went alone to transport the goods. Chu Tian was afraid that he would be discovered by someone in the future and intercepted along the way. What should he do?
So he wanted to hire another person to deliver the goods with him, but he was not at ease just looking for a stranger or other people in the team. After thinking about it, he still felt that Sun Weiguo's elder brother was the most appropriate person.
One reason is that Sun Baoguo is usually a man of few words, and the other reason is that he is very much like Captain Sun, who is very tight-lipped and never talks nonsense in public. He has always had a good reputation in the team!
Captain Sun was such a smart man. When he heard what Chu Tian said, he immediately understood his idea and narrowed his eyes. "Chu Tian, do you want Baoguo to follow you?"
Yes, Captain Sun felt that Sun Baoguo was honest and reliable, and kept his mouth shut, unlike Sun Weiguo who was so erratic!
Seeing Chu Tian nod and then shake his head, Captain Sun was puzzled, "What do you mean? Isn't it true?"
Chu Tian pretended to think for a while before speaking, "Captain, I want Baoguo and Weiguo to help me..."
Captain Sun was surprised, "Why?"
Chu Tian simply explained calmly, "Captain, I just said that this is not a matter of delivering it once or twice. If it is only once or twice, I can run it myself."
"I won't let Baoguo and Weiguo run for nothing. It's one dollar each, and I'll pay them after each delivery!"
"Is that all right with you?"
Captain Sun frowned slightly, took his old pipe from the side, lit it and started smoking, with smoke covering his face.
Chu Tian couldn't see Captain Sun's expression clearly at this moment, and didn't know what he meant at this moment, did he agree? Or disagree?
Sun Weiguo also looked at his father with a nervous expression. He didn't want to lose this job. Three dollars a day, no, even if it was one dollar a day in the future, he would be willing!
Sun Baoguo looked around in bewilderment. He couldn't understand why, if it wasn't speculation, he could earn one dollar just by delivering goods. What kind of goods could be so valuable?
It was quiet for an unknown amount of time before Captain Sun finally finished smoking. He stared at Chu Tian gravely, "Chu Tian, do you know what the consequences will be if you get caught doing this?"
Chu Tian raised his eyebrows, "I know."
"But, this is known to heaven, earth, you, and me! As long as no one tells us, and we don't engage in speculation, no one will know, and we won't be caught!"
"Baoguo, Weiguo, what do you think?"
Captain Sun looked at Chu Tian meaningfully, then looked at his two sons. He understood what Chu Tian meant. What he meant was that he told them about this. Even if they didn't follow him in the future, they were still grasshoppers in the same boat. If anyone outside knew about it, it must be someone among them who told it.
Sun Baoguo stammered, "Ah," not knowing how to respond. He didn't want to make money? That was impossible! Not to mention his younger brother's wedding after the Lunar New Year, which would cost a fortune, his own daughter and son were growing up and would need to go to school. He and his wife couldn't possibly stop having more children. In short, there were so many things to spend money on!
Sun Weiguo saw that his elder brother hadn't said anything for a long time, and he was very anxious. Seeing his father looking at him, he quickly stood up and said, "Dad, if elder brother doesn't want to do it, I, I want to do it. I want to do it with Brother Tian! Brother Tian won't harm me..."
Captain Sun looked at his eldest son and said, "Baoguo, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Sun Baoguo raised his hand and said weakly, "Dad, I, I also want to do..."
Captain Sun, "..."
