Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife-Chapter 82: Living Written in Blood!
Chen Xiao followed Luo Dali and the other two back to the pilot site.
As soon as they arrived, Luo Dali began to introduce the place to Chen Xiao.
"Brother Chen, I really didn’t expect that the company here would implement your idea so quickly."
"Look at this, the warehouse was just set up in a day!"
"And all these staff members, they all arrived simultaneously! Although half of them you haven’t seen, they’ve gone to the subordinate towns for promotion."
Chen Xiao nodded in satisfaction: "Have you met the person in charge of the company here?"
"Xiaoji Knife Man and I had dinner with one of their general managers last night. Honestly, Brother Chen, we’ve really gained some insight this time. Damn it, one bottle of wine costs several thousand, and in one meal, we spent over ten thousand!"
Chen Xiao casually asked, "Who paid?"
"Initially, I was going to pay, but that general manager seemed to be frightened when he found out. Then he kept apologizing to me and insisted on footing the bill."
Chen Xiao chuckled, "You should consider who brought about this business deal."
"Yeah, so at first, we thought we didn’t do well and made him angry. Never expected that he genuinely didn’t dare let us pay, saying if we did, his old man at home would scold him."
Luo Dali spoke with a bitter smile, and Chen Xiao understood the reason but didn’t reveal it.
Then Luo Dali added, "When that general manager left, he mentioned that once Brother Chen, you’re free, his old man really wants to meet you."
While speaking, Luo Dali asked mysteriously, "Brother Chen, we’re brothers, right? Tell me the truth, what kind of big thing have you done? Why are those extremely wealthy bosses so cautious with your matters?"
Chen Xiao shrugged: "They’re not giving me face; they’re giving face to a big shot in Jiang Province." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
Luo Dali seemed partially understanding, and Chen Xiao didn’t want to continue with the topic.
"Get ready, the four of us are heading to Xiaofeng Village today."
"Alright, but Brother Chen, why do we have to go to Xiaofeng Village ourselves?" Luo Dali asked curiously.
Chen Xiao replied, "Don’t worry too much about other things; just focus on building this pilot site. Once it’s successful, Jiang Province will definitely follow suit."
"You need to know, Qingxi is not our territory. We’re developing this pilot site here to serve other purposes, understand?"
This time, Luo Dali truly understood, which was indeed a clear advantage he possessed.
That is, if Chen Xiao instructed him not to ask about other things, he wouldn’t utter an extra word.
As for Dao and Xiaoji, they were even less inquisitive.
Originally, they were just two loafers on Dongzhou Phoenix Street, and now they were able to follow Chen Xiao and Luo Dali to work and make big money, which was already a tremendous favor in their hearts.
Once all preparations were complete, Chen Xiao, along with Luo Dali and the other two, drove their respective vans to Xiaofeng Village.
Upon arrival, due to prior promotions, villagers immediately gathered as they saw the cars approaching.
Chen Xiao glanced over and asked, "Has every household been notified?"
"All notified. The prize drawing you mentioned will only happen if that particular family shows up."
"Alright, then let’s start."
Luo Dali nodded and took a microphone, cleared his throat, and cheerfully began to shout:
"Hello, folks! Does everyone know about the promotion our appliance store has been doing these days?"
"We’ve heard it. Is the prize drawing real or fake?"
"Of course it’s real. As long as you bring broken or unused rice cookers, electric fans, or kettles from your homes, you can exchange them for prize drawing opportunities! And our prize drawing event is absolutely not fake; you’ll at least take a new rice cooker home!"
"That’s great, let’s quickly exchange for drawing opportunities!" A villager exclaimed in delight.
Luo Dali laughed and said, "Everyone must queue up and come one by one. You all have to come today because this event is only for today. Anyone who draws a prize today will get more discounts if they buy new appliances next time!"
"Also, everyone look carefully, on stage, we have big-brand juicers, refrigerators, and color TVs worth thousands, folks start drawing those prizes!"
With Luo Dali setting the atmosphere, the entire scene instantly became lively, and even Chen Xiao had to join in.
After some time, on stage, Luo Dali suddenly exclaimed, holding a raffle ticket: "Oh my, which pretty auntie is so lucky? She drew a prize for our color TV using a broken kettle!"
This cry instantly excited the villagers.
However, at this moment, Chen Xiao noticed a middle-aged woman appearing at the back of the crowd.
The woman looked haggard and held a somewhat new rice cooker in her hand.
She stood in the back, appearing hesitant, but upon seeing the aunt joyfully beside the TV, she gathered up courage to walk over.
Looking around at the stage, she finally approached Chen Xiao and asked, "I wonder if I can exchange this rice cooker for one of your juicers without participating in the draw?"
Chen Xiao recognized her and smiled: "Auntie, you might draw something better!"
"I... I’m afraid I might draw something useless for my home! Don’t worry, this rice cooker is quite new!"
"Then if you exchange this rice cooker, what will your family use? Isn’t it more useful than a juicer?"
The woman replied wretchedly: "My child is sick and can only have liquid food. I thought it would be useful when I heard about your juicer, so I came to exchange."
Chen Xiao naturally wouldn’t refuse, thus skipping the so-called drawing altogether.
"Alright, I’ll make an exception for you. You can exchange your cooker for a juicer."
The woman nodded happily, and Chen Xiao picked up a juicer and said: "Auntie, this juicer is quite high-tech. You might find it difficult to read the manual at home, why don’t I personally deliver it and show you how to use it?"
"Ah... that would be great, at home only my son can read, but he’s sick, sometimes well and sometimes not. With your help, it’s better!"
Chen Xiao nodded, and after leaving some instructions, he followed the woman away from the scene.
Soon, they arrived at a bungalow.
As Chen Xiao stepped over the threshold, he heard sounds of conversation from the nearby room.
The voice was slightly sobbing, with incessant sighs: "Brother Yu Gui, my sister’s situation isn’t your fault, you’re just torturing yourself like this."
Chen Xiao could only hear a female voice; he couldn’t hear if Yu Gui said anything.
His gaze fell onto the walls, covered with various awards!
At this moment, Yu Gui’s mother came with an extension cord, and Chen Xiao temporarily taught her how to use the juicer.
Coincidentally, Ye Xiu’s visit brought some fresh fruits to the home.
Yu Gui’s mother used those fruits to experiment, squeezing several cups of fresh juice.
One cup was handed to Chen Xiao, and then she carried two cups into the room.
Chen Xiao held the juice, followed to the door and happened to hear his mom saying: "This is the juicer I exchanged at the rural appliance event. The people doing the activity even personally came to teach me! Xiuxiu, taste it: I bet it tastes good. Ah Gui, wait, mom will dip it for you to taste!"
Hearing his mom, the boy on the bed looking like skin and bones glanced toward the door with difficulty.
Chen Xiao nodded slightly at him, silently drank a sip of juice, then took out some cash from his pocket and walked into the room.
However, as he approached, he noticed that on Yu Gui’s pillow, two words were scrawled in blood: Living!
