Chapter 1304
A strange coincidence
Wang An and Han Xiaomin were chatting idly in the largest bedroom, while Wang Li and Yuan Hongmei, and Mu Xueli and Tao Wenjing were chatting idly in their respective smaller bedrooms.
In this type of suite, in order to save space, the partition walls are all 12-inch walls, which are single-layer brick walls.
With such thin walls and the fact that the bedroom doors weren't closed properly, or even left half-open, the sound insulation was very poor.
Therefore, the sounds coming from these three rooms can be heard very clearly from each other.
Of course, most importantly, these three women had already experienced something like this yesterday, so they no longer had the reserve and tact that women should have, and they were all competing to shout.
The shouts rose and fell in waves, almost hysterical, as everyone freely expressed the joy and wonder they felt.
To be honest, although the voice was chaotic, sometimes loud and sometimes soft, with a very monotonous timbre and not a single syllable in tone, it was undeniably quite pleasant to listen to. Of course, that would be strange!
As is well known, such cries from women have always been an aphrodisiac for men.
Even a middle-aged man over fifty might get a little agitated upon hearing such a voice, as a sign of his respect.
It should be noted that Wang An and the other two were all very young and strong men.
So, the strange noises in the suite continued until almost 11 o'clock before gradually subsiding and finally stopping completely.
At around 4 a.m. the next day, Wang An's biological clock kicked in on time, waking him up from his sleep. Upon waking, Wang An immediately ran to Wang Li's room, wanting to wake him up so they could go outside to practice martial arts.
There was nothing he could do; with the wind howling outside, Wang An felt that running and practicing alone was just too boring.
But when Wang An pulled back the blanket, Yuan Hongmei's snow-white body was immediately revealed.
As if possessed, Wang An secretly reached out his hand and touched the milky white snowflakes.
It's different, it's really different! It's a completely different feeling!
A few seconds later, seeing that Yuan Hongmei seemed to be waking up, Wang An immediately turned around and slapped Wang Li on the back, instantly waking him from his sleep. He said as he did so:
"Get up and get dressed quickly, we're going out to practice martial arts right now."
After waking Wang Li, Wang An went to Mu Xueli's room and did the same thing.
I have to say, the feeling of secretly touching someone's scum is actually quite exciting.
After waking them up, Wang Li and Mu Xueli, just like yesterday morning, wanted Wang An to give them another day off so they could sleep in. However, this time Wang An wasn't going to indulge them. He kicked them both, waking them up completely.
The main reason is that after Wang An and the other two returned from DZ County yesterday, they slept right after lunch and slept until dinner time. So, neither Wang An nor Wang Li and Mu Xueli had any sleep problems.
And so, under Wang An's kicking and hitting, Wang Li and Mu Xueli reluctantly went downstairs with Wang An to practice their martial arts.
During breakfast, Han Xiaomin suddenly said to Wang An with a big smile:
"Xiao An, all the medicinal herbs you needed were prepared yesterday and will be loaded onto the truck and dispatched around 10 a.m. today. Would you like to go and take a look after lunch?"
To be honest, Wang An didn't understand how to judge the quality of medicinal herbs, but there's a saying, "Don't pretend to know what you don't," so Wang An nodded and said:
"Hmm, it's fine to go take a look. I'll also see how your shipping process works," Han Xiaomin said with a smile.
"The shipping process isn't very interesting. They just pack all the goods to be shipped into burlap sacks, sew the sack openings shut with hemp rope, find a truck, transport them to the warehouse in the far west for weighing, and then put our burlap sacks inside their special burlap sacks. Their burlap sacks are all sewn with white cloth on top, and then they will cut out the delivery address with kraft paper, put the kraft paper on the white cloth, paint it, and the address is printed on."
After saying this, Han Xiaomin added:
"Actually, it's no different from mailing something at the post office."
Wang An nodded and said:
"Doing business here is really convenient; you can just place the goods right in front of you and ship them out."
Han Xiaomin, however, said with slight dissatisfaction:
"It's not exactly convenient either. We still have to find a vehicle to transport the medicinal herbs. Besides, their burlap sacks cost one yuan each, while a burlap sack of the same size only costs seven mao outside. They won't let us use their burlap sacks."
Wang An smiled and said:
"Well, you have to let them make some money too, right? Besides, they even carved and printed your name on it."
Han Xiaomin pouted and said:
“When you mail mail at the post office, you can just write on a white cloth. But they make a fuss and insist on printing words on it. I think they just want money on purpose.”
While Han Xiaomin is right, this kind of thing involves more than just one person's interests.
Although the net profit of a single sack is only 3 cents, given the daily output of the entire medicinal herb wholesale market, it must be a huge profit!
You should know that when medicinal herb wholesale factories ship goods, they are calculated by the train carload.
After a while, Han Xiaomin suddenly spoke up with great interest:
"Xiao An, I want to discuss something with you."
Wang An raised his eyelids and glanced at Han Xiaomin, saying:
"What? Did you suddenly remember someone who owes you money and hasn't paid it back yet?"
Han Xiaomin said a little shyly:
"There aren't that many people who owe money. I just wanted to ask you, since my three shops are doing so well right now, have you ever considered investing in them?"
Upon hearing this, Wang An was taken aback for a moment, and said somewhat confusedly:
"If business is good, that's a good thing. If I invest, you'll earn less, right? Besides, I can't just leave it here forever. It doesn't seem like it would be of any use if I invested."
Since yesterday, Han Xiaomin's shop has seen a significant increase in customer traffic, so in Wang An's view, it was completely unnecessary for Han Xiaomin to ask him to invest.
Because it's obvious that Han Xiaomin wanted to give Wang An money to thank him for his help.
However, Wang An believed that what he was after was low-priced medicinal herbs and very stable suppliers.
Therefore, in this respect, the relationship between myself and Han Xiaomin is just a fair transaction, there is no favor involved, and I do not need Han Xiaomin to repay me in any way.
As for helping with debt collection, it was just something done on the spur of the moment. Besides, Han Xiaomin and the other two even contributed themselves and took very good care of Wang An and the other two.
Overall, this could barely be considered a transaction. (End of Chapter)
