Love? The Reborn Me Just Wants to Obtain Rewards

Chapter 805: Chapter 337: The Temptation of Going Home_2

The poor little thing was terrified, "No way, no way! You’re the cutest!"

"Pfft!"

Several local men laughed so hard they sprayed out their soy milk...

Aside from that little episode, Su Huai’s early market trip was quite successful. The freshly fried dough sticks were crispy on the outside and soft and fragrant on the inside, dipped into sweet soy milk, the feeling of satisfaction was off the charts.

Tang Xian’er bought a bunch of quirky snacks and shared with him the ones she found tasty, and digested the less palatable ones herself. Such considerate behavior made the audience envious, but failed to move him in the slightest.

After they had eaten their fill, Su Huai crossed his legs and started assigning her tasks.

"Today you’re going to run errands for me... Got it all?"

Tang Xian’er’s thumbs were flying over her phone screen, making sure she didn’t miss a single item.

"Got it. When should I go?"

"Right now."

As Su Huai was about to give her the card, Gu happened to call.

Picking up the phone, "Hey, Susu, where are you?"

"In Harbin, and you?"

Gu Jiuyue did not answer but continued to ask, "When are you heading back to Daqing?"

"Um, in a day or two, why?"

"Nothing much, just that the Lunar New Year supplies I prepared for you have arrived in Daqing. Pick them up when you get back."

"Oh oh oh, got it, thanks to the princess~~~"

Su Huai’s mood was so cheerful, but soon he noticed something odd about Gu Jiuyue’s choice of words.

"Why are you calling them supplies? What’s this, a relief effort?"

"Um..." Gu’s voice turned a bit bashful, "I accidentally packed a bit too much, and well, take your time sorting it out when you get back..."

"Huh? How much exactly?" Su Huai suddenly became very cautious, "Don’t stuff my house so full that there’s no space left; give me some mental preparation."

"Uh..."

Gu paused again, then said shyly, "I accidentally loaded a whole refrigerated truck with meat and seafood, fruits and vegetables. As for the liquors, sweets, teas, and the like, those didn’t take up much space, just six boxes. You’ll figure something out when you sort it out~~~"

She hung up the phone with a click and then sent him the freight company’s contact information via WeChat.

Su Huai muttered to himself and immediately made the call, going straight to the point, "How big is your truck, brother?"

"A standard 6.8-meter yellow plate refrigerated truck, currently fully loaded, a bit over twelve tons."

The truck driver seemed to know who Su Huai was and was very polite, "Mr. Su, you go about your business first; I’m not in any rush to unload, there’s still a long shelf life."

Su Huai’s vision went dark.

Damn!

Gu, are you turning my home into a wholesale spot?

He was both amused and annoyed as he sent a voice message, "What were you thinking? Even if we had 100 pigs at home, we couldn’t eat all that food..."

"Well, I didn’t know that!"

Gu chuckled, sending back two playful voice messages.

"I didn’t know how big that truck was, and then there was just so much good stuff meant to be sent to my home for the New Year that I thought I’d bring a truckful to Susu..."

"Dizzy, that really is a truckful."

Su Huai was torn between laughter and frustration, rubbing his forehead, "Alright then, I’ll sort out my affairs quickly and go back and take care of it tomorrow."

He paused, then asked, "Is Gu not angry?"

"Why would he be angry? He doesn’t even know. We’re in Bali, and those things were all gathered for a stopover in the Imperial Capital. They hadn’t even been sent to our home in Jinling before I intercepted half of them..."

Hearing this, Su Huai felt the situation was getting even bigger.

Half of it was already over a dozen tons; the full amount must be 25 tons. Clearly, this wasn’t just meant for personal consumption; at least 20 tons were meant for giving gifts to maintain relationships.

But he wouldn’t blame Gu for this. In times like these, he could only praise her.

"Good job, very well done! Let Gu worry about it when he gets back! If trouble comes, we’ll bear it together. For your thoughtful gift, I wouldn’t mind taking an earful of nonsense from him—it’s all worth it~~~"

"Ha ha ha ha ah!"

Gu laughed for a full 10 seconds, unable to contain her joy.

"Okay, I’ll bear it first, then you take the hit. Take good care of the stuff. It’s pretty impressive as gifts and will definitely earn you some big face with the relatives!"

"OKK, I’m off to work now. We’ll talk more after I get things sorted out tomorrow."

"Alright then, bye bye!"

Putting away the phone, Su Huai stroked his face.

Everything’s been diverted here; let Gu Tongshu handle whatever comes. Better to think about how to deal with my parents.

Heh, after a semester’s learning, with a changed mind and increased height, and now bringing back a container full of Lunar New Year goods... Epic!

"There’s no need to buy all that random stuff."

Su Huai instructed Tang Xian’er, "Just prepare some red envelopes for me, the big kind. Put ten thousand Cash in each."

"Roger that." Tang Xian’er tucked away her envy, asking respectfully, "So what do we do now?"

"Let’s check out the location, then buy a car."

The location wasn’t worth much mention; Su Huai’s attention was always set on the Nangang District, right in the middle of the university town.

The rent was a bit expensive compared to other districts, but compared to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, it was like spending a separate currency—the Northeast Coin. An office space of over 2000 square meters plus 50 staff apartments, all for less than 1.8 million a year, can you believe it?

After checking the location, both Fu Yu Chen Ru and Tang Xian’er were deeply shocked.

"This price..."

"Tsk tsk, now I understand why Mr. Su always says: ’Our enemies are in third-tier cities.’"

"No kidding, the cost for those small clubs must be so low..."

Su Huai laughed, "Spend 200,000 on renovations + 200,000 for a year’s operations costs, guess, how many live streamers could we run?"

Tang Xian’er ventured a guess, "20?"

"2000!"

Su Huai shook his head in resignation, "We’ll sign a quick turnover of 100 local offline first, make some noise, then hoodwink 1900 newbies online. To be a bit ruthless, just from termination fees and breach of contract fees, we could make 50 million a year."
