After grasping Chen Yangâs intentions, Wu Kexin lost interest in choosing vegetables.
She directly took Chen Yang to the rice shop she had reserved and told the owner that she wanted to return fifty bags of rice.
The owner, seeing the quantity was halved, couldnât help but ask, âWhat happened, beauty?
Didnât you just agree everything was fine?
Why do you only want half now?â
âWe haveâŚâ
Wu Kexin was just about to reply that they had a new source of rice, but before she could finish, Chen Yang pulled her back.
Chen Yang pulled Wu Kexin behind him, chuckling as he explained, âBoss, hereâs the thing, itâs our first time cooperating.
Weâre not familiar with the taste or quality of your rice, so a one-time purchase of a hundred bags is too much.
Thatâs why weâre returning fifty bags for now.
If weâre satisfied after eating, weâll come back to buy more in a few days.â
The owner, upon hearing this excuse, although somewhat reluctant, thought of the possibility of ongoing future cooperation with Chen Yang, and didnât dare to offend him.
After some thought, he finally agreed.
âThen Iâll trouble you, boss.â
Once the owner agreed, Chen Yang immediately expressed his thanks.
The owner, with a forced smile, said youâre welcome and then ordered the staff to unload fifty bags from the one hundred bags of rice that were already loaded on the truck.
After everything was unloaded, the owner asked, âShall we leave now?â
The amount of rice, like the tables, was too much, so Chen Yang couldnât possibly transport it back himself and had to ask the owner to deliver it.
âVillage Chief, have you finished buying everything?â
Chen Yang turned back and asked Wu Kexin.
âAlmost, but I still need to pick up some vegetables from the vegetable market.â
Wu Kexin nodded.
âAll right then.â
Chen Yang turned to the owner, âLetâs set off, and have your truck follow behind my van.â
âOkay.â
The owner agreed, and the pickup truck loaded with rice drove out of the warehouse.
Chen Yang also got into the van with Wu Kexin and headed towards the vegetable market.
On the way, Wu Kexin couldnât hold back her curiosity, âChen Yang, why did you use that kind of excuse just now?
Weâre definitely not going to come back next time, so why didnât you just tell him directly?â
She still didnât understand why Chen Yang had pulled her back earlier.
Chen Yang smiled faintly, explaining, âVillage Chief, this is where you lack social experience.
That rice shop owner is cunning.
If he knew you werenât coming back, do you think he would return fifty bags for you?
Even if he did, he would likely raise the price.
But if you say youâll come back next time, itâs different.
He wonât dare offend you, will he?
He still has to sell it to you at the negotiated price, doesnât he?
And he unloaded the fifty bags, right?â
With Chen Yangâs explanation, it suddenly dawned on Wu Kexin.
âYouâre right.â
Wu Kexin immediately understood Chen Yangâs rationale.
Afterward, the two drove to the vegetable market and moved all the vegetables Wu Kexin had purchased onto the van.
The rear seats of the van were completely filled with vegetables and meats, looking very plentiful.
Once the vegetables were loaded, Chen Yang drove straight to the store that sold tables.
The owner of the table shop was eagerly looking out for Chen Yangâs return.
Seeing Chen Yang hop out of the van, the ownerâs smile was so big he almost couldnât close his mouth.
âBoss, youâre finally back.
Iâve already prepared your tables, just waiting for you to transport them.â the owner said with a smile.
Seeing the radiant smile on the ownerâs face, Chen Yang couldnât help but show a slight smile himself.
âIsnât this me showing up?
Have your man drive the truck closely behind mine.
When we get to the destination, Iâll settle both the cost of the tables and the delivery fee together.â
Chen Yang said.
âAlright, alright, you lead the way, and Iâll have my guy follow in the truck behind you.â
The owner nodded repeatedly and immediately went to the warehouse.
Shortly after, a reasonably large truck loaded with folding wooden tables drove out from the alley next to the shop.
Chen Yang glanced unintentionally, then turned to get in the van and led the way.
The truck loaded with rice, along with the truck carrying tables, followed closely behind, returning to Liuhe Village with Chen Yang.
When Chen Yang and Wu Kexin set off, it was only one oâclock.
By the time they returned, it was already between four and five in the afternoon.
However, there werenât many people in the village at this time; most were still up at the quarry on the hillside.
Chen Yang parked the van in front of the clinic, with the two vehicles coming to a halt behind him.
Chen Yang was the first to jump out of the lead vehicle.
Seeing Chen Yang get out, the drivers of the vehicles behind hastily engaged their handbrakes and then leaped out as well.
âBoss, is this the place?â
The round table store owner asked Chen Yang with a smile.
Chen Yang nodded, âYes, this is it.
You can start unloading.â
âAll right.â
With affirmation, the owners of the two vehicles didnât dawdle and called their helpers to start unloading.
In a short while, fifty bags of rice, thirty-five wooden tables, and several hundred stools were all unloaded from the trucks and placed in front of Chen Yangâs house.
Once everything was offloaded and Chen Yang had checked that nothing was amiss, Kexin paid the bill.
The owners, after receiving the money and expressing their thanks heartily, drove off in their trucks.
Chen Yang then made a trip to the canteen to call everyone over to help with the tables and the rice.
Many hands make light work, after all, and moving stuff wasnât too tiring.
As soon as the aunts heard Chen Yang mention needing help, they all came over enthusiastically, and in no time, all the wooden tables and benches were carried to the canteen, along with all the rice into the inside,
Two temporary canteens were set up.
The smaller one was used as the cooking space, while the larger one was for storing pots, pans, ladles, and staples like firewood, rice, oil, and salt.
The rice that was purchased was all placed there.
âHas everyone started cooking dinner yet?
If not, should I unload the vegetables from the van first, so we can have something fresh tonight?â
After the unloading, Chen Yang took a brief rest, then stood up and asked,
âNot yet, Yang Zi.
Letâs do it all in one go to avoid hassle tomorrow.â
âYeah, weâve still got space, so storing some vegetables shouldnât be a problem.â
Upon hearing there were still vegetables to be unloaded, all the aunts stood up again, ready to carry the vegetables.
Chen Yang thought it over and agreed, considering it would be troublesome to keep them in his van.
It was better to get it done in one go.
So Chen Yang led everyone to unload all the vegetables and such from his van.
Then, the whole canteen became officially bustling with activity.
Those washing the vegetables washed, and those cooking cooked; it was a lively scene.
Seeing everyone so enthusiastic, Chen Yang and Wu Kexin were genuinely delighted.
âThis is a great start; it wonât take long for our village to become wealthy!â
Chen Yang exclaimed.
âYes, if every household has an income, within a year our lives will become more prosperous.â
âAnd the benefits the quarry can bring are certainly not limited to these.
Weâre just at the beginning and donât see it all yet.
Once the quarry grows in scale, it will definitely drive other industries.
By that time, Liuhe Village will be even more affluent.â
Wu Kexin had a blueprint for Liuhe Villageâs prosperity in her heart.
With mineral veins and villagers like Chen Yang, she found it straightforward to envision the villageâs wealth.
