Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 280: Transport Business
"Second Brother, Third Brother." Yi Roujing was very happy to see Yi Weijun and Yi Weiliang, raising her hand high to wave at them.
Yi Weiliang had already beco a full-ti worker, and now could drive a truck to other places by himself. Before New Year’s Day, Yi Weiliang took on a job driving to Wen Province, originally thinking he’d return tomorrow, but he ca back today.
Since Yi Weiliang beca a full-ti worker, he mostly took his second brother, Yi Weijun, with him when going out. Yi Weijun could drive now too, though he wasn’t yet familiar with the roads. After following Yi Weiliang a few tis, his experience and knowledge of the roads increased quickly, and it’s said there might be a chance to beco full-ti after the New Year.
"We just parked the car at the factory, let’s go ho, Brother brought good things for you guys." Yi Weiliang leaned in to say quietly.
Yi Roujing and Ding Anmin followed the two of them to the Yi Family’s place in Guangning Alley. As Yi Weijun knocked on the door, he called out, and Pan Kexia ca to open it. The door was opened only slightly, but seeing it was only her family outside, and there was no one else passing in the alley, she hurried to welco them inside.
Seeing Pan Kexia’s actions, Yi Roujing felt a bit like she was guarding against thieves, wondering what good things her second and third brothers had brought back.
When they entered the living room, they found many things placed inside, including three snakeskin bags. The most eye-catching item was a Panda-brand television set on the coffee table in the living room.
"Is this a television?" Ding Anmin exclaid. Nowadays, having a radio is already considered a novelty; there are probably only a few televisions in all of Huaixi County. The televisions in the Departnt Store are brought in per unit, and they’re usually pre-booked before they even arrive.
The first ti Ding Anmin saw a television was in Jing City at Huang Xiaobao’s uncle’s house, but he didn’t get a chance to watch it then.
The Xu Family, with Xu Zongyin being accustod to solitude, didn’t have a television, and Yi Roujing had never been to the Huang Family. So for her, seeing a television at this ti was quite curious. The ones from later years were much thinner and larger. This one’s small and kind of square-shaped like an antique; she was seeing it for the first ti.
"I brought this for soone else. In Lu City, Wen Province, I queued since early morning to get it, but I can earn so markup." Yi Weiliang said happily.
"By the way, these are for you, Little Sister." Yi Weiliang opened one of the snakeskin bags and took out two bundles. One contained leather shoes; the other had so specialties and dicines, including the famous Baxian Cake and Loquat Blossom Dew from Lu City, and so cured at.
"Weiliang, you send Roujing and Anmin back ho, and we’ll start dinner when you return," Liu Huilan urged them to go, having given them special gifts. It’s winter, and it gets dark early in the evening; Yi Roujing is pregnant.
"Did you make a lot this ti?" On the way back to Bright Alley, Yi Roujing asked Yi Weiliang.
"Yes, the profits were good. Not long ago, the Wan Tang Production Team leader ca to the factory to find . Knowing we work in transportation and run outside, he asked if we could help bring so items. So family needs big iron pots, so need knives, and many things are cheaper in other places than in Huaixi County."
"But speaking of this, our brother-in-law is really amazing." Yi Weiliang’s eyes lit up as he spoke, "After I started running long-distance trips alone, our brother-in-law sought out and told about the prices in various places, advising what to buy and bring back to earn the most money. He even knew how much profit was suitable."
"Since I beca full-ti, I’ve earned more in three months than from two years of fixed wages." Yi Weiliang whispered this close to Yi Roujing’s ear.
Yi Roujing was a bit surprised at the amount.
"You must have invested a lot in the costs, right?" Yi Roujing asked.
"Before my second long-distance trip, after brother-in-law spoke with , I talked to the family. Dad, Big Brother, and Second Brother all supported . Mom, Sister-in-law, and the second sister-in-law did too. They contributed every penny they’ve saved so far together as capital, and we’ll share the profits," Yi Weiliang grinned as he spoke.
"We can repay brother-in-law all the money for the Guangning Alley house this ti. No more debts, and after reserving so of the profits, we can save quite a bit. Now, the sisters-in-law have a different mindset, and the family atmosphere is better than ever." Yi Weiliang was delighted.
"Third Brother, don’t let your guard down. This kind of thing shouldn’t be seen in the light. Be careful when you’re out." Yi Roujing reminded him.
"Don’t worry, brother-in-law has already told us," Yi Weiliang replied proudly, "Brother-in-law won’t miss anything. He uses private cars for these operations; we’re using public vehicles, and getting caught is no joke."
"But I have to say, brother-in-law’s information is really up-to-date. He knows which routes are unsuitable for business almost entirely, which is not foolproof, and we might still face an unexpected inspection."
"However, brother-in-law has already told us the solution; he even advised us to call him if there’s trouble after handing over goods. He’s prepared ahead of ti, so no major issues will arise," Yi Weiliang said.
"We rember everything brother-in-law told us, and we won’t go against it. He’s doing it for our good, though the quick earnings make everyone envious, stability always cos first."
With Yi Weiliang having this understanding, Yi Roujing felt reassured. With Xu Ancheng overseeing things, she relaxed.
When they arrived at Bright Alley, Yi Weiliang greeted the Ding Family and left after Li Hongying stuffed him with a basket of at baozi.
The winter fur shoes Yi Weiliang brought back from Wen Province were very warm, suitable for the current weather. Yi Roujing and Li Hongying had flat ones, while Ding Anmin and Xia Xingchen had ones with slight heels.
"Weiliang did a great job with this." Li Hongying held Ding Anmin’s pair, bright red leather, extrely festive, with a pleasing style. The three won had black ones; only Ding Anmin’s were red, "Perfect for wearing at the wedding, much better than black ones. After the wedding, they can still be worn. Red also matches clothes well."
Yi Weiliang also delivered a pair of similar red fur shoes to Xie Chenyan’s ho overnight, though the style differed from Ding Anmin’s.
"Why buy leather shoes? There’s fur inside; it’s rabbit fur, right? Not cheap, huh?" Xie Chenyan liked them but felt a bit pained thinking about the cost, "I already have leather shoes."
"But you don’t have fur shoes," Yi Weiliang replied with a smile, "When you marry , it’ll be very suitable to wear them; it’s very cold weather."
Xie Chenyan suddenly blushed and cast a reproachful glance at Yi Weiliang, "I already made shoes to marry you, with red embroidered warm shoes, lined with cotton—very warm too."
"When it snows, cotton shoes get wet quickly; fur shoes are more fitting."
"Okay, I’ll listen to you." Xie Chenyan responded shyly.
"I’ll listen to you," Xie Chentao imitated his sister’s tone from nearby, which made Xie Chenyan feel embarrassed enough to want to hit him.
"Co here, Chentao. These are for you." Yi Weiliang handed him a pair of fur gloves.
"Wow, so cool." Xie Chentao thanked him with a smile, trying them on eagerly.
"Are you all set for Youning’s matter?" Xie Chenyan asked with concern.
"Yes."
"That’s good then."
