Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back

Shi Yan gave 4000 yuan to Brother Shi and asked him to book a room in the hotel, while she was planning to raise some more capital.

She took out more than 4000 banknotes that could be used during this period from the wooden box in the space. Now she gave to Brother Shi, and she still had a little over on her.

In order to buy more goods and stock them so that she could compete with the male protagonist on price, she sent Brother Shi away and entered the space.

In the space, she could use her special powers at will, so she quickly picked apples, pears, oranges, tangerines, and yellow peaches, filling all the baskets in the space. Now she was unfamiliar with the place, and the only person who knew her was her eldest brother, who was leaving tomorrow as well, so it was convenient for her to take the fruits out to exchange for money.

The next day, Brother Shi drove away early. Shi Yan did not sleep much. She got up early in the morning and bought a set of old clothes from the front desk of the hotel so that she could wear them when selling fruits later. Then she had breakfast and hired a car to take her to the fan factory.

Bat brand fans are very famous in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai areas, but the fan itself is not an electrical appliance with very high technical content, so the price sold locally is not high. For those who buy in large quantities like Shi Yan, it is even cheaper, 60 yuan per unit, and Shi Yan ordered 150 units.

If Shi Yan took it to the capital to sell, she could double the price and didn't even need an industrial ticket. The market price of the Bat card was 129 and it required a ticket. Shi Yan's selling in this way was simply malicious competition.

However, at this time, although the country allowed individual transactions, it only allowed small-scale transactions and did not allow large-scale transactions. Therefore, if Shi Yan wanted to make money, she still had to sell it on the black market. As for what price the people in the black market offered, that was their business.

Because Shi Yan came alone, the factory sent a car to help transport all the things to a forest that Shi Yan had liked on the way here, saying that someone had been arranged to come and pick them up. After almost half an hour after the people from the fan factory left, Shi Yan put all the things into the space, and she also entered the space and changed into the old clothes she bought from the front desk.

She wrapped her head and face with a headscarf again, rubbed her two white hands on the ground, smeared the palms and backs of her hands until they were dirty, then she slung a basket over her shoulder, put a few apples, pears, oranges, and yellow peaches in the basket, and went to the nearby cannery.

Canned food was in short supply in this era. Not only was it easy to store and send far and wide, it was also a symbol of status. If you gave a few canned fruits as a gift during the New Year or other festivals, it would be considered a very respectable thing.

So when Shi Yan brought such fresh fruits to his door, how could the director of the cannery not be excited? If Shi Yan's goods were really as good as she said, then he would definitely buy them.

"How much do you have? If you only have a hundred kilograms, you might as well set up a stall outside on the street and sell them out quickly. We buy fruits by the ton. Otherwise, the taste of the canned fruits produced from the same batch will vary greatly, which will ruin our reputation."

Shi Yan had never done business before, but she would naturally be willing to buy more if the buyer asked her to. After all, selling fruit is a business with no capital. The more she sold, the more capital she could use to purchase small household appliances, and then she could seize more of the small household appliances market in the capital. In this way, she followed the male protagonist's path and left him with no way out.

"Don't worry, we have a convoy this time. If you want, bring your people with me to get it. However, I have already unloaded half of the goods, and the convoy has gone back to get the remaining fruits. If you can swallow dozens of tons, you can send a car to get it yourself."

Shi Yan's statement was only barely convincing, so when the people from the cannery found the grove as Shi Yan had said, the first thing they saw was the deep tire marks on the ground that Shi Yan had faked with vines, and piles of fresh fruits that exuded a fruity aroma.

"Oh, this fruit looks really good. It smells sweet."

The factory manager was quite satisfied with Shi Yan's goods, and asked the employees he sent to load and weigh them one by one. Finally, twenty or thirty people spent half a day picking out the fruits, a total of 23 tons. At the conversion of 5 cents per pound, Shi Yan made a net profit of yuan.

If she hadn't heard from the factory manager that they were not in a hurry to purchase more fruits recently, she would have wanted to get some more, after all, the opportunity to go out is rare.

After separating from the people from the cannery, Shi Yan hurried back to the space and changed into her own clothes. Seeing that it was only almost noon, Shi Yan found a wonton shop and had a quick meal. She then went to the fan factory to replenish 150 fans and returned to the guesthouse to rest in case Brother Shi came back and couldn't find her.

Brother Shi came back very quickly. He returned to the hotel with a happy face before it got dark.

"Brother, why are you so happy? Did things go well today?"

"It went smoothly, of course it went smoothly, look!"

Brother Shi took off the large package he had been carrying on his back, revealing a simply wrapped watch inside. He then rummaged through the small pocket inside the bag, and took out two electronic watches and handed them to Shi Yan.

"Look, this is a gift from someone who saw that I bought so much for my child to wear at home. Although digital watches are not as good as mechanical watches, it's enough to tell time. My brother wears this one, and you wear a mechanical watch. I'll give this one to the leader's child. Although it's not expensive, it shows my thoughts so that he can remember me when good things happen in the future!"

Shi Yan, who had a huge sum of money, felt guilty seeing how careful her brother was with his money. She didn't want to talk to him any more. She just took out some fruits from her space and pretended that she had bought them today, and then she went to bed because she was tired from playing and didn't even have dinner.

The next day, the two of them traveled all day back to the capital. Brother Shi had to return the car and deliver the watches he had brought for his colleagues, so he asked Shi Yan to take the 25 watches they bought home first.

"You're back now, why didn't you play for two more days?"

Shi's father and mother were perfectly willing to let their precious daughter go out to relax. After all, except for crying on the night of the breakup, their daughter had been behaving normally since then. As parents, they knew their child very well and felt that their daughter was putting on a smile in order not to make them worry. So when Shi Yan suggested going out to relax this time, they were relieved and hoped that their daughter could truly get over the failed relationship after coming back.

"It would be boring for me to play alone, and my brother happened to be in a hurry to return the car to work, so I followed him back."

"By the way, Mom and Dad, my brother and I brought you gifts. They are Plum Blossom watches. There are four of us in our family, one for each of us. If you are too busy at work in the future, you won't have to worry about being delayed with a watch!"

After Shi Yan sold more than 20,000 pieces of fruit, she no longer cared about the profits from these watches. The Shi family treated her very well, so she must have given something in return.

"Oh, you are my dear. You remember to bring a gift for your dad when you go out to play. Unlike your brother, he never thinks of me every time he goes out. He only brings gifts for you and your mom!"

Faced with his good daughter's sugar-coated bullets, Shi's father was just happy, but Shi's mother knew that a Plum watch was not something that could be purchased for a few dollars like buying fruit. One watch would cost at least several hundred yuan, and all four watches would cost thousands of yuan.
