Chapter 23: Embrace the Golden Leg



Seeing Su Li's calmness, Grandpa knew that this girl was not an ordinary person, and then he became serious, "I wonder if the girl has anything to trade with me."

Su Li thought that it would be better not to have too much for the first time. Too much would be unsafe, and she was also afraid that the old man would not be able to eat it.

"Master, this is the first time I cooperate with you. Let me show you the quality of my goods first. You can tell me the price. If it's suitable, we can talk about it later."

As he spoke, he took out the backpack, lifted the cloth on it, and took out the things inside.

Grandpa was surprised to see the white flour, rice, watches and other things on the table. He sat up straight, walked forward to touch them, and looked at Su Li for a while. Then he sat back in his chair and said, "Sister, you are so capable that you have the channels to get such expensive goods. I wonder where you are in the business?"

Su Li knew that he wanted to get in touch with the upstream supplier, but she was not a fool so why would she tell him? Besides, she didn’t have it to begin with, so she must be the source manufacturer!

"Master, the deal hasn't even been done yet, but you want to give up the main thing and chase after the trivial. That's not how business works. If you're not sincere, then my trip today was in vain."

Su Li stood up and walked out. The two young men at the door did not listen to Grandpa's instructions and stopped Su Li. "Grandpa, what are you doing? Business is not about kindness. You stopped me from leaving. If people outside know about it, your reputation here will be gone."

Grandpa laughed and said, "Don't be angry, sister. I just have a bad temper. I don't mean any harm. I'll give you 150 yuan for each watch, 2 jin for flour, 3 jin for rice, 2 jin for apples, and 1 yuan for hairy crabs. They're a bit expensive, and only rich people eat them. I'll give you 1 yuan for each jin."

Su Li heard that the price was similar to the current price of tickets. "The price is fair. You should make a profit. 10 watches, 500 kilograms of flour, 500 kilograms of rice, 300 kilograms of apples, and 100 kilograms of hairy crabs. This is the quantity I will give you for the first transaction. If the cooperation is pleasant, I can provide you with something else next time."

Su Li looked at Grandpa and smiled meaningfully.

Grandpa stood up straight immediately and asked, "Are you serious?" The address was obviously respectful. It was obvious that the person who could take out so many things at once was not an ordinary person. And judging from the meaning of the girl's words, if he cooperated, she would have other goods.

This is when Grandpa put away his careless thoughts.

"Yes, Master. I came here with full sincerity. Besides, you can't find anyone else who can provide such high-quality things on this table except me. Now it all depends on your sincerity."

"Of course I am sincere. Cash on delivery. When are we going to trade?" To be honest, he hadn't harvested any food recently, let alone anything he could sell. If this continued, he would run out of food.

At this time, Grandpa was even very careful in what he said, for fear of offending the living god of wealth in front of him.

Su Li looked at Grandpa's anxious expression and said, "Two hours later, in the thatched house at the end of Maozi Hutong in the north of the city." Although this Grandpa is too shrewd, he is a capable opponent to cooperate with. Apart from being a little scheming, he is very decisive and not stupid.

"Hey, I know this place. It's remote and few people go there. But girls know how to find a place."

"Then please prepare the cash first, and we'll see you in two hours."

After Su Li left, the beautiful woman next to Grandpa asked, "Grandpa, do you want to send two people to follow?"

Grandpa glared at her and said, "Why are you following her? This girl is very smart. If she finds out, this deal will be ruined, and it might even be sold to someone else." It's not like they don't have competitors in this business. If this girl can supply goods for a long time, he will have secured a golden thigh.

After Su Li left the house, he walked for a while, observing that there were no people following him, and then he took out a bicycle from the space when no one was around and rushed to the thatched cottage.

This thatched house was very shabby. When the door was pushed, the rotten wooden boards fell off with a rustling sound. The house was even dirtier and messier, with spider webs everywhere. The walls were also cracked and air was leaking in.

This place is good for Su Li and can be used as a trading location in the future.

It was getting late, already four o'clock in the afternoon, and Su Li had to finish the transaction and go back quickly, as the little ones were still waiting for her at home.

He took out a broom from the space and swept out a space, then took out the goods for grandpa. Just as he took it out, there was a noise outside. Su Li looked through the crack in the door and saw grandpa and two young men waiting at the door.

"Is my sister here? Sister?" Grandpa called out.

"Come in!"

Su Li opened the door and let Grandpa and the two young boys in, "Check it out carefully."

Grandpa and his two companions walked into the house, which contained 10 brand new bags and two large baskets of hairy crabs, and three baskets of bright and fresh apples that made people salivate.

Then Su Li handed the watch in her hand to Grandpa.

Grandpa's two men checked the food and said, "Grandpa, I have never seen such white flour and rice. These apples smell delicious." He swallowed his saliva.

"Girl, the product is fine, even better than I expected. I'll give you an extra 10 yuan for each watch. Girl, come back to me next time you need more!"

Su Li raised her eyebrows, looked at Grandpa, smiled and said nothing.

Looking at Su Li's expression, Grandpa quickly took out the payment from the black leather bag in his hand, counted it, took out two thousand and ten yuan and handed it to Su Li.

Su Li didn't count them, and directly put them in the backpack he carried with him, and put them away in the space when they couldn't see them. But this casual action was not casual in the eyes of Grandpa and his two subordinates, and even raised his status by more than one level.

This girl must have too many things, so she treats money as dirt.

"Girl, when will we meet next time..."

"Grandpa, today you have seen the quality of my goods, you also have to let me see your abilities. You should do things according to your abilities. These are just a small test. Next time, there will be more. Besides, I am the goods, whether you can eat it is also a question."

When Grandpa heard that this girl was someone who could do great things, he said, "Sister, don't call me Grandpa anymore, call me Big Brother, haha! To be honest, winter is coming soon, and every household is storing food for the winter. I can eat as much as you have."

Su Li also knew that life was not easy now, so he thought for a while and said, "Brother, in half a month, I will give you 1,000 kilograms of flour, 1,000 kilograms of rice, 500 kilograms of grains, 500 kilograms of apples, 500 kilograms of oranges, 1,000 eggs, 100 kilograms of brown sugar and 100 kilograms of white sugar, two rolls of cloth, and 10 Phoenix brand bicycles."

When Grandpa heard this, his eyes widened and he asked with a trembling mouth, "But seriously, sister, please don't frame me."

My God, where did this girl come from? She is simply his God of Wealth.

"Of course it's true. Next time, I'll have your people clean up this place. I'll come back to you after I prepare the goods. You can prepare the money. In addition, if you have gold and silver jewelry, you can also use it as payment."

"Sister, if you like yellow and white things, just say yes. I'll give you some as a gift later. These things are worthless, so just consider them as a gift from me." Grandpa said without hesitation.

Su Li twitched her lips, "Well, I'll leave first. See you next time."

Seeing that it was already past five o'clock, it gets dark early at this time of the year. Su Li took out a bicycle from the space and rushed home with the backpack. When he was almost home, he put the bicycle into the space, opened the door and went into the house, lit the kerosene lamp. The little ones were still at Old Xie's house, and he didn't know if they had eaten at this time.

He took out two pounds of pork belly from the space and hurried to the Xie family. Most people only eat two meals a day and go to bed as soon as it gets dark. After all, it can save some kerosene. The Xie family eats three meals a day, but at night they only have boiled sweet potatoes and bean cake corn porridge.

Because Su Li gave them a lot of food today, they had egg noodles for dinner. They had just eaten it when Su Li came.

Hu Zi and Bao Ya saw Su Li coming over and hurried over, "Mom, why did you come back just now!"

Baoya followed suit, "You just came back now!"

Tiedan and Shitou ran over and surrounded Su Li. Several little faces looked at her with bright eyes. Su Li's heart almost melted.

"I'm sorry, my dears. When I came back, I didn't find a cart, so I walked back. Who knew I would be so late?"

When the children heard that Su Li walked back by herself, they felt distressed.

"Mom will give you a massage when we get home," Tiedan said hurriedly.

Xie's mother felt relieved to see the children being so close to Su Li. The third child's family had really changed.
