A few days later, Liu Xiaoxiao received a reply from Liu Chenfeng, and this time the letter he wrote to her was also very long.

Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the note that the other party kept simplifying for convenience and sighed in her heart, "Ah! Why is this written like classical Chinese?"

The main idea behind it is also very simple, that is: he wants to collect the fruits, but if they don’t know how to transport them, they can go to the town to find the owner Shen of a restaurant called Jufulou, and he will find a way to help them solve the problem.

As for the price, he suggested the same price they'd paid in town before. If they were okay with that, he could ask the restaurant owner to pay them 20% upfront when he delivered the goods. He could pay the rest after he received the goods.

After finally finishing the letter, Liu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! Could it be that he also owns Jufulou?"

"Then I have been doing business with him for a long time, haven't I?"

Zhufu and Liu Yingcai, who were also waiting for news, also sighed inwardly after reading the small note: "As expected of a young master from the capital, his business is so big that he even has a store in a small place like theirs."

"No matter whether he opened the Jufu Restaurant or not, he wants our fruit now. Let's go to the restaurant and ask tomorrow." Liu Yingcai, who was most worried that the fruit would go bad, suggested.

Liu Xiaoxiao said, "Okay, since we should be able to collect the last batch tonight anyway, let's go ask him tomorrow morning. If he can really arrange the transportation, we can bring the goods over this afternoon."

Liu Yingcai said, "Sure. It just so happens that the mountain land we bought a few days ago hasn't been transferred yet, so I'll go with you tomorrow morning and take care of this matter while we're there."

Liu Xiaoxiao had no objection.

Zhufu said, "I saw a shop I liked a few days ago and was planning to go there tomorrow to discuss the price. How about we go together? As for the carriage, I think we should each take our own. After we finish the things ahead, we can drive the carriage to a secluded place in the afternoon. Xiaoxiao will take the goods out, and then we can go and deliver the goods directly."

Liu Yingcai and Liu Xiaoxiao both nodded in agreement.

The next day, the three of them set off early.

Because the Liu family has to deliver goods to the restaurant every morning, their first stop today is Jufulou.

As soon as she arrived at the restaurant, Liu Xiaoxiao saw a waiter cleaning the door.

She walked up and saw that it was an old acquaintance!

Liu Xiaoxiao greeted with a smile: "Little Second Brother, long time no see."

The waiter was also surprised when he saw that it was Liu Xiaoxiao: "Sister Xiao, why are you delivering the goods today?"

After Liu Xiaoxiao explained their purpose, Xiao Wang hurriedly led them in.

Inside the shop, Shopkeeper Shen was fiddling with an abacus, checking the accounts. Hearing the noise, he looked up and saw Liu Xiaoxiao and the others, and greeted them warmly.

Liu Xiaoxiao originally wanted to hand her the letter that Liu Chenfeng had given her.

Shopkeeper Shen waved his hand and said, "Don't read it. My boss wrote me yesterday and told me about your shipment to the capital. So just bring the stuff to our restaurant. I promise to deliver it to you as quickly as possible."

When Liu Xiaoxiao heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Manager Shen. You've really helped us a lot!"

Liu Yingcai also hurried to express his gratitude.

Zhufu asked from the side, "Shopkeeper Shen, how much is the shipping fee?"

Shopkeeper Shen smiled and said, "The boss has ordered that the shipping fee be waived this time as a thank you for your trust in him."

The three of them were surprised again after hearing this.

After agreeing on the delivery time with Manager Shen, Liu Yingcai and Liu Xiaoxiao said goodbye to the restaurant and went to the government office to handle the transfer of the mountain land.

Zhufu went to discuss matters related to the shop.

When Liu Xiaoxiao and Liu Yingcai arrived at the government office, they discovered that not many people were applying for mountain land transfers. Their turn came quickly, and the official in charge carefully reviewed their relevant documents and, after confirming they were correct, quickly helped them complete the formalities.

The two of them took the new land deed and left the yamen happily.

On the other hand, after some intense bargaining, Zhufu finally signed a lease contract at a price that both parties were satisfied with.

In the afternoon, Liu Xiaoxiao and her friends delivered the fruits to Jufulou as agreed.

After receiving the goods, Shopkeeper Shen immediately arranged a special carriage and guards to quickly load the fruits and immediately set off to transport them to the capital.
