Chapter 264 Study hard
Before taking the bus back to town, Shen Zhensheng and Xiao Baoer took the child into the space to eat something, and then he and Xiao Baoer went to take the bus.
The car broke down for a while on the way, and when they arrived at the county, it was already past one in the afternoon. Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng discussed that since they were already in the town, they might as well trade some supplies for Zhou Bao and Xie Lan.
The two of them first went to two courtyards in the town and placed all the supplies they had prepared a few days ago in the courtyards. Then Xiao Baoer went into the space to rest, and Shen Zhensheng went to find Xie Lan and Zhou Bao alone.
They were old acquaintances who had dealt with each other many times and were familiar with the procedures. The two of them counted the required payment and handed it to Shen Zhensheng. Xie Lan was still muttering that she hadn't seen Xiao Baoer for a long time, and that she would definitely visit Xiao Baoer and the children after the baby was born.
After Shen Zhensheng finished his work, he went to the post office to ask if there was any letter for him. The letter he wrote to his comrade had been sent out many days ago, but there was no reply when he asked last time, so he came to ask this time.
This time there was indeed a letter from him, written by Jiang Tao. He said that he had been on missions for several months in a row and had just recently returned to the base. He also mentioned that there were retired military dogs in the army, but they would have to be brought over when he came in a few months.
The letter was written by many of Shen Zhensheng's former young soldiers. Each of them excitedly told him what happened after he retired, and how much they missed the battalion commander.
After reading the letter, Shen Zhensheng found an opportunity to enter the space. Xiao Baoer was playing building blocks with the children, and Sanbao's little mouth was eating again, and his little hands were quietly eating the cheese sticks on the table.
"Son, are you eating again?" Shen Zhensheng picked up little Sanbao and tickled him.
"Daddy, eat, it's so sweet," Sanbao also shared a bite of his favorite cheese stick with Shen Zhensheng. You can no longer scold the baby after eating his food.
"Wife, I just received a letter from my comrade-in-arms. He will bring the military dog back to us when he takes leave in a few months, and he will stay at our house for a few days."
Xiao Baoer has respect for soldiers, so she is naturally very welcoming when Shen Zhensheng's comrades come to her home.
"That's great, let him have a taste of our delicacies, and let him have a taste of your cooking skills."
Shen Zhensheng put Sanbao on the sofa and went to prepare lunch. It was a little late, but luckily the whole family had just eaten something.
When the family arrived home in the afternoon, Shen's mother and father were standing at his door. They were about to leave, but stopped when they saw the family coming back.
"Dad, Mom, why are you two standing here? What's going on?"
Shen's father took the three children down from the ox cart, and Shen Zhensheng also helped Xiao Baoer down. Then he gave 6 cents to the uncle driving the ox cart and went home.
"Nothing, aren't you going to the county today? Your mother is worried and wants to come and ask about the situation."
Xiao Baoer thought it was a good thing that they cared about the child, and there was nothing wrong with having one more person love the child.
"It's fine, mom. The doctor said Zhensheng took very good care of the child, and the child is getting better day by day."
"That's fine, Third Brother's wife, you have to take good care of yourself. Don't do any housework. Just ask Dabao to go to the front yard and call me and your second sister-in-law to help."
"I know, mother. There are so many people in the old courtyard. Yuqing comes over several times a day to ask if my family needs help."
Shen's mother was very satisfied with the fifth child's partner. She originally thought that city people were difficult to get along with, but Jiang Yuqing was extremely kind to her family and was even more filial and polite to Shen's father and mother. No one in the village who had gotten along with her disliked her.
As soon as Aunt Song Yun saw Shen's mother, the first thing she did was to praise her mother for having several good daughters-in-law. All three of them were filial and sensible, and the fifth son's partner was also an excellent person like their third sister-in-law.
Shen's mother enjoyed hearing people praising her daughters-in-law. She felt better than hearing people praising herself.
"Yuqing is also a good child. I am relieved that you are okay. Your father and I will go back first. Your second brother and his wife are busy at home."
Shen Zhensheng sent them to the door of their home. Shen's mother gave Shen Zhensheng a few more instructions before leaving, which were nothing more than to be careful on the road and to rest when they were tired. Only after Shen Zhensheng gave her repeated assurances did she feel relieved.
Shen Zhensheng was gone for more than ten days this time, mainly because he had to wait there for the things to be brought back. He could only drive back after others had prepared the things and loaded the car.
This time Shen Zhensheng negotiated an order and was lucky enough to meet a black market boss who knew the goods. When he saw the workmanship and style of the clothes and bags in Shen Zhensheng's hands, he was attracted by them at first sight and asked Shen Zhensheng directly how often he would come and how much goods he could bring each time.
Shen Zhensheng calculated the factory's daily production volume in his mind and directly reported a number. The two of them immediately decided on the final quantity.
Shen Zhensheng brought Shen Zhenjiang with him to discuss business this time. This was also to train Shen Zhenjiang, let him learn more and see the world.
"Third brother, did he just order so many clothes and bags? He didn't even bargain with you or confirm your identity?"
As soon as Shen Zhenjiang came out of the black market, he started asking Shen Zhensheng questions. Just now he saw with his own eyes that the black market boss took a look at the goods in the third brother's hand, and without even bargaining for the price, he immediately discussed with the third brother how much goods he could bring next time. It was really incredible.
Shen Zhensheng smiled when he heard his question. "That's because your sister-in-law's designs are good, and the workers' craftsmanship is good. People like you who are used to seeing good things have a keen nose and can smell which business is good to do."
"Oh, so that's how it is. Third brother, you are really amazing."
Shen Zhensheng kicked him lightly and said, "You little brat, learn this lesson well. Doing business is not only about your brain, but also about judging people with your eyes. You can tell what some people with bad intentions are thinking from their faces."
Only then did Shen Zhenjiang realize that there were so many things to pay attention to when doing business. It seemed that he still had a lot to learn.
"I understand, Third Brother. I will learn more from you."
"Okay, I'll take you to eat something delicious, and then we can go back to the hotel to rest, and then load up the car and go home early tomorrow morning."
During this period, Shen Zhenjiang and Shen Zhensheng had eaten a lot of delicious food. Shen Zhensheng also took him to see the world and taught him how to do business. Shen Zhenjiang felt extremely happy every day.
"Okay, Third Brother."
The two of them went to the agreed location early the next morning to load the goods and return. This time when Shen Zhenjiang returned, he would have to face Jiang Yuqing's parents. The last letter Jiang Yuqing received said that they would come to their home in the next few days to discuss the marriage.
This time, Shen Zhenjiang specially bought a beautiful watch from a big shopping mall as a betrothal gift for Jiang Yuqing. As for the sewing machine and bicycle, he will prepare them when he returns home this time.
