Lao Peng said embarrassedly: "I feel really guilty taking this money today. We did almost nothing."

"Keep it. If you feel embarrassed, then just help me out and run errands for free in the next few days. Come with me to the Second Camera Factory and the Radio Factory early tomorrow morning. Meijuan has already made an appointment with someone."

"Okay, no problem, I'll listen to you." Old Peng grinned and put it away happily. In just two days, he earned several years' income of others. He was so happy and satisfied, Xia Ran was cheerful.

Peng Bo's commission was higher, and there was also a general commission from Chengzi's sales, so he should have been paid 2425 yuan, but Xia Ran gave him 2450 yuan.

Chengzi happily put the money away, turned around, secretly wiped his tears, and said loudly: "Sister Xia, if you have anything to do, just tell me and I will run errands. Don't worry, it's all free." Sister Xia will be his real sister from now on.

He brought back a large sum of money last night. At first his mother thought he had not studied well and was worried that the money came from illegal sources, so she was so angry that she cried.

Later, after he explained it, his mother burst into tears with joy, saying that their family had finally finally gotten their happy ending after suffering so much hardship. She repeatedly told him to follow Sister Xia well and not to betray her, but to be loyal to her.

"Okay, it won't be free. After paying for these goods, I will have no money left."

Old Peng asked in surprise: "Xia Ran, you wouldn't have invested all your money in stocks, right?" He thought he was just talking yesterday, but he didn't expect this person to really do it, without any pretense.

"Yes, I spent all the money from yesterday. I will use the money collected today to pay for the goods. When I leave, I will sell all the stocks. I won't make a lot of money, but it's okay to make a little money. I will directly remit the money back when the time comes. It's not safe to hold it in my hands. After all this, I can earn the remittance fee, so I don't have to pay for it myself."

Old Peng didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh helplessly. This seemed to make sense.

The three of them then separated temporarily, giving Lao Peng and Peng Bo some time to deposit the money in the bank, and then met at a restaurant to have dinner early.

Lao Peng first found a phone booth and called the deputy director back, making an appointment for tomorrow afternoon. Then he and Peng Bo went to the bank.

Xia Ran had nothing to do, so she went to the restaurant early to wait for the two of them and ordered the dishes in advance. She asked for a braised lion's head, a pork with preserved vegetables, a Cantonese beef, a honey-glazed yam, a stir-fried spinach, and for the main course, she ordered two pounds of three-fresh vegetarian dumplings.

The remaining staple food will be ordered after the two people come. After waiting for more than ten minutes, Lao Peng and his wife came in sweating. Xia Ran waved to the waiter and asked him to serve the dishes.

By the way, I asked them to order the main course, but they looked at the menu and were reluctant to open their mouths, thinking it was too expensive and too extravagant.

Xia Ran asked the two people and found out if they had any dietary restrictions, so he ordered three more pounds of dumplings. They could eat dumplings together, thinking it should be enough.

Soon the dishes came up. Old Peng looked at the dishes and whispered, "Xia Ran, did we order too much? This is too extravagant and unnecessary. Next time I will take you to some small restaurants. The food is delicious and much cheaper than this. This meal is enough to buy you several meals elsewhere."

Xia Ran nodded: "Okay, sure, we'll go to the place you mentioned next time. We've already ordered this time, let's eat first, we'll be busy after dinner, you two have to help me count the quantity, I'm busy now, let's eat."

Peng Bo didn't hear what Xia Ran said at all, he only heard the word "eat". Seeing the other two people move, he also moved.

It smells so good. So this is the lion's head dumpling. The taste is so mellow and delicious. I eat one dumpling at a time and gobble it up. I can't eat this during the Chinese New Year. It's really a blessing.

Old Peng said it was too expensive and too extravagant, but he finished his meal faster than anyone else, and he really felt sorry for the high price. But looking at these dishes, he really felt greedy, they were so delicious.

At first he was a little bit uncomfortable and couldn't let go. But when he saw that a woman like Xia Ran ate more happily than a grown man like him, he slowly let go and ate more freely.

Only what is put into the mouth counts, the rest is not important. In the end, all three of them had their stomachs full.

Peng Bo remembered this meal for a long time, just like a person in a dry desert suddenly got a handful of clear spring water, and every time he thought about it, he had endless aftertaste. Of course, this is a later story.

The three of them didn't stay for long and went straight to the agreed place. This time they had plenty of time, so Xia Ran tried riding a trolleybus for the first time. The ticket price was very cheap, but the distance was not long and the trolleybus stalled halfway. In the end, there was no choice but to get off and push the trolleybus for a distance.

Pushing a cart by herself was a special and memorable experience. Xia Ran estimated that she would remember it for the rest of her life.

Old Peng looked like he was used to it. Seeing Xia Ran was surprised and curious, he pushed the car and explained, "Push it. This tram is a bit old. It has old parts and aged wiring. A bad contact caused it to become like this. You'll know after riding it for a long time. This happens all the time. Push it and it will start again."

When they arrived, the others were already waiting, including Chengzi. Without further ado, they began to inspect and count the goods. Xia Ran was in charge of the inspection, while Lao Peng and Peng Bo were in charge of counting. They went through the items one by one, and Chengzi would also lend a hand.

The first thing to check was the towels. After counting them and checking that there was no problem, Xia Ran paid Boss Huang 100 yuan directly.

Next came the socks. After checking all the goods, he found that there were more than 200 pairs of defective goods. Boss Qin said that the extra 200 pairs were directly given to Xia Ran, and he hoped that there would be a chance for cooperation next time.

"As long as I sell well, there will definitely be opportunities for cooperation. If I don't sell well, then there will be no hope. Let's leave each other our contact information." Xia Ran said happily after paying the RMB for the goods.

"Okay." Boss Qin wrote down his address and contact number, and handed the notebook to the other two bosses.

The three of them are from the same city, so they try to work together and help each other.

The next step was to select the cloth, which was charged by the piece. Boss Lu was quite cunning. Xia Ran had originally planned to only pay 2 yuan for the goods, but they ended up bringing in nearly 3 yuan worth of goods and letting Xia Ran choose whatever he wanted. As Xia Ran was choosing, he accidentally picked the goods that were worth yuan.

Seeing this, the other two bosses scolded Boss Lu for being an old fox and being too cunning. They miscalculated and should have prepared more goods in case they could pick more. It was not good to be too honest.
