"Alright, the problem has been resolved. Su Cheng, would you like me to take you home?"

Su Cheng quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, no need, Teacher Lin, I can go back by myself!"

Lin Fan smiled and didn't say anything more.

The two then went home separately.

Today's incident was just a minor episode on Lin Fan's journey forward, and he didn't take it to heart.

It's even an exaggeration to say that similar troubles will inevitably increase in the future.

All Lin Fan could do was constantly motivate himself and cultivate a calm and composed mindset to deal with any trouble.

When they got home for dinner, the family talked about the equipment again.

Lin Fan shared the information he had gathered with his family.

Hearing Lin Fan's words, the second brother frowned and asked anxiously, "So what should we do now?"

"We don't have much money left, so it will be very difficult to compete with others!"

Indeed, barring unforeseen circumstances, when two people want to compete for something, self-interest is undoubtedly the most important factor.

It's a consensus that whoever can contribute more money will reap greater benefits!

"I'll figure out a way to handle this; you don't need to worry about it."

Lin Fan spoke in a deep voice.

He hadn't figured out how to resolve this matter yet, but he already had a vague plan in mind.

Director Su has made things very clear: some of the equipment is currently being competed for by people from Zhejiang City.

If Lin Fan wants to fight for it, he only has two paths in front of him.

The first option is to find a buyer, and once you find a seller, you can buy the goods by offering them a high price.

Putting aside whether Lin Fan can find this mysterious seller, even if he does, his second brother just made it very clear that they have limited funds and simply can't come up with much money.

Therefore, this path is definitely not feasible.

So now only the second option remains: to find buyers in Zhejiang.

He wanted to find a way to break through him. Of course, the importance of this batch of equipment was self-evident, and generally speaking, others would not easily let go of it, but Lin Fan still decided to try his luck.

After all, anything is possible with human effort. If we can connect with that seller or become friends, we might be able to get him to give up the competition.

Even as he went to sleep that night, Lin Fan kept thinking about this matter.

So, after getting up early the next morning, Lin Fan announced the result he had been thinking about all night.

"Wife, second brother and sister-in-law, I'm planning to go to Zhejiang City!"

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Lin Shuying's face showed a hint of surprise: "What are you going there for?"

"Are you trying to find buyers in Zhejiang and persuade them to drop the competition?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I haven't figured out what to do yet, but I think I should go over there and understand the situation!"

"If we can find a loophole or think of another way, it can save us a lot of money. If it's really impossible, I'll come back and think of other ways."

Lin Shuying looked at Lin Fan with a worried expression and said, "But Zhejiang City is so far from here. It might take a day or two just to get there by train. Are you going alone?"

The second brother, standing to the side, patted his chest and volunteered, "Xiao Fan, why don't I go with you? It'll be good to have someone to look after you on the way!"

“After all, this time we’re going on a long trip. Unlike before when we were in the county town, it’s only a seven or eight-hour round trip to the provincial capital. If something happens, we can get here as soon as possible.”

"We're so far apart now, and it's not easy to keep in touch. If something really happens to you, we might not even get any news!"

Clearly, they were more concerned about Lin Fan's personal safety than the so-called goods and other miscellaneous items.

After all, money can be earned back, but what would they do if something happened to Lin Fan?

It's important to understand that the world is quite chaotic these days. While it's unlikely that something as outrageous as kidnapping someone at the university gate would happen, the security situation in some remote villages or areas far from urban centers is actually not very good.

Robberies and thefts can even occur on trains, so extra caution is needed when traveling far from home in unfamiliar territory.

Their concerns are not unfounded.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. If I can't even handle such a small matter, and I need my second brother to come with me, how am I supposed to manage all my businesses?"

"I'm not as fragile as you think!"

Lin Fan looked at Lin Shuying and his second brother, smiled slightly, and spoke with considerable confidence.

Despite Lin Fan's earnest words, Lin Shuying still couldn't be completely at ease.

"If you don't want your second brother to go with you, how about I go with you instead?"

Lin Fan said with a wry smile, "Honey, I'm going there this time to take care of important business, and I need to be quick. Otherwise, if we wait too long, the goods will already be in someone else's hands, and it won't be so easy to get them back!"

"If you come with me to do a lot of things, it won't be very convenient. I'll go by myself. When time is tight, I can manage on my own!"

Indeed, there are advantages to going out alone. For example, if you have urgent business to attend to and don't have time to eat, or even if you can't find a place to sleep, you can find a bench in the park and make do for the night.

However, if Lin Shuying or other people are brought along, the two of them will have a lot of differences in their daily home meals. After all, Lin Fan can endure grievances himself, but he can't let the people around him suffer as well, right?

Therefore, when dealing with urgent matters, especially those with a high degree of uncertainty, it is often better to do it alone.

Hearing Lin Fan's firm statement, Lin Shuying could only frown slightly, somewhat displeased, and say, "Alright, then you can go alone, but you have to promise us that your own safety will be your top priority!"

Lin Fan smiled and said to Lin Shuying in a coaxing tone, "Okay, my dear wife!"

"I will make sure my own safety is the priority and come back safely so you won't worry!"

Lin Shuying didn't say anything more, and silently nodded. Her second brother and sister-in-law also said to Lin Fan, "Then go ahead, take plenty of money with you on the way, don't deprive yourself!"

"Also, be careful on the train. Don't run into any pickpockets. It's not like home. If you get robbed of all your money, you won't even be able to eat, and you might not be able to get back!"
