Chapter 287 Connecting the Dowry
Li Qin didn't know if Li Huaide had told her about their true relationship, but every time Li Qin went to Li Huaide's house...
This auntie treated Li Qin extremely well.
Li Qin never left empty-handed.
Knowing that Li Qin liked to smoke cigarettes, she even gave him whole cartons of cigarettes from her house.
As for fine wines, pastries, biscuits, and other such items, they packed them up for Li Qin in large and small bags.
Li Qin could clearly sense that the other party was genuinely good to him.
So he didn't feel bad at all about giving away watermelons.
Besides, he doesn't lack watermelons.
To be precise, the storage room in the pagoda space was piled high with watermelons and other fruits.
Giving away a watermelon is nothing at all.
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, a look of relief flashed in Li Huaide's eyes.
He also noticed that his wife was very close to Li Qin, and now that Li Qin had something good, he didn't forget her. Li Huaide was happy for his wife.
This shows that Li Qin is grateful and close to his wife.
"Since you put it that way, then I won't stand on ceremony. I'll accept this watermelon and take it home for your aunt to try tonight."
Li Huaide nodded with a smile.
Li Qin nodded with a smile as well.
After Li Huaide put the watermelon away, Li Qin's smile suddenly vanished, and he looked at Li Huaide with some hesitation.
Finally, he said softly;
"Uncle Li, do you need a watermelon?"
Li Huaide was no fool; on the contrary, he was quite intelligent. So, as soon as Li Qin opened his mouth, he understood the meaning behind Li Qin's words.
A strange light flashed in his eyes:
You mean...
.
Li Qin knew that Li Huaide had understood his meaning, and immediately nodded and said:
"Uncle Li, my friends managed to get some watermelons this time. Apart from some that they need for themselves, they have about five or six hundred jin of watermelons left."
I was thinking that if you, Uncle Li, wanted some, I could put in a word with you.
Five or six hundred pounds of watermelon is actually not a very large quantity.
Even though watermelons aren't very big these days, one still weighs about seven or eight pounds, or even close to ten pounds.
Five or six hundred pounds is just a few dozen watermelons.
Upon hearing that such a thing existed, a glint of light flashed in Li Huaide's eyes.
Watermelons may not be very valuable, but they are extremely scarce.
Whether you eat it yourself or give it as a gift, it's a very good product.
Besides, given Li Huaide's current status, he certainly doesn't lack this amount of money.
He nodded immediately:
"Yes, of course! Watermelons are a great thing in the summer. If possible, I hope to get all of them."
Li Huaide remained as magnanimous as ever.
Li Qin immediately smiled and nodded;
"Uncle Li, don't worry, I'll contact my friends tonight. As long as they haven't sold their watermelons yet, I'll reserve them all for you."
As for the price, I'll contact you later, and you can discuss it in person when you meet.
This time, Li Qin plans to change his identity and then personally conduct the transaction with Li Huaide.
There are several advantages to doing this;
This would put Li Huaide at ease, letting him know that Li Qin had not cheated him out of his money through a transaction;
Furthermore, this watermelon trade is just the beginning, or rather, an experiment.
If the results are good, Li Qin plans to use the new alias to conduct more transactions with Li Huaide in the future.
After all, Li Qin currently possesses a considerable amount of resources, which cannot be stored in his spatial storage indefinitely; he must find a way to sell them.
Replace it with something you need.
Otherwise, these things in these spaces would be worthless.
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, a glint of light flashed in Li Huaide's eyes.
He had been interested in the people behind Li Qin for a long time, but he didn't dare to investigate their backgrounds and identities because of Ji Chan and the others.
There was no initiative to ask.
Now that Li Qin is willing to take the initiative to make the connection, Li Huaide is naturally willing to meet with the other party.
In his mind, these people were not ordinary people; as long as he could establish a connection with them, they would definitely be able to help him.
Thinking of this, a smile immediately appeared on Li Huaide's face;
"Then you can handle this. Just let me know once you've made the arrangements."
Li Huaide remained calm and composed. Although he was eager to meet the people behind Li Qin, he did not show it.
Li Qin didn't care about any of that; what he cared about was this deal, and future deals.
Therefore, Li Qin immediately nodded after Li Huaide finished speaking;
"Uncle Li, don't worry, I will contact them as soon as possible and arrange a time and place to meet."
Li Huaide naturally trusted Li Qin's abilities.
Over this long period of time, everything Li Qin has done has been flawless and perfectly executed.
After the matter was settled, Li Qin was very happy.
This means he has another new shipment project, and may expand the scope of cooperation in the future, thereby accelerating the collection of gold and other items.
Only by collecting enough gold and other precious metals can Li Qin further improve the alchemical pagoda.
This matter was still very important to Li Qin.
Li Qin then sat in Li Huaide's office for a while before getting up and leaving.
There was still some time before it was time to get off work, and Li Qin didn't want to go home in the scorching sun.
So I simply went back to the purchasing department.
He planned to wait until the sun was setting in the west, when it would be less intense, before going home.
Although he possesses alchemical artifacts that can keep his body warm in winter and cool in summer, that only guarantees his physical well-being.
But it couldn't change the sun's scorching heat.
So he will still feel uncomfortable.
It's just not as intense as it is for ordinary people.
When Li Qin arrived at the purchasing department, he was surprised to see Yuan Zhi there as well.
To be honest, ever since Li Qin helped Yuan Zhi get acquainted with the work of a purchasing agent, they have rarely run into each other.
The main reason is that Li Qin's work hours are quite flexible; he comes to the steel rolling mill whenever he feels like it, and doesn't come when he doesn't.
As a newly hired purchasing agent, Yuan Zhi started going to the countryside at the beginning of the month in order to complete the purchasing tasks.
Even when they returned to the steel rolling mill, it was only to hand over the purchased materials.
Therefore, the two rarely have the chance to meet.
Upon seeing Yuan Zhi, a strange light flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
He still clearly remembers that at the beginning of the month, Yuan Zhi's face and eyes were full of confidence.
Moreover, it is full of drive.
But now, Li Qin saw dejection in Yuan Zhi's eyes and on his face.
The drive in my body has decreased a lot, and instead, I feel a lot more pressure.
After a brief silence, Li Qin greeted him with a smile.
"Yuan Zhi, did you just come back from shopping in the countryside?"
Yuan Zhi, who had been seemingly deep in thought, looked up when he heard someone call his name and then looked in the direction of the sound.
When Yuan Zhi saw that it was Li Qin, a bitter look flashed in his eyes.
However, he still stood up very politely and then answered with a respectful expression:
"Yes, Brother Li, I just came back from the village down there."
