The appointment time was during the afternoon of the next day, and the meeting place was the intermediate’s home. The other party was indeed anxious, as the intermediate said, and brought all the information with him. They heard from his friend that Wang Cheng’s household was not short of money now, and could pay it all at once, so the price was higher than the price that Papa Wang’s friend said yesterday, which was slightly lower.
That shop was not located in the best part of Chengping’s market, but it was not too bad. What really made Wang Cheng decide to buy it was that the shop seller's idea when buying a shop was similar to his: that if the people running it were a family, they could occasionally go to Chengping to stay, so there was a yard behind the shop, which was quite spacious.
After talking, they went straight to Chengping to see the shop.
Wang Cheng and Papa Wang were more than satisfied with the shop. They were not worried that the person would pit them. Those who could be regarded as friends by Papa Wang were of good character.
On the second day after signing the contract, Papa Wang found a second-hand truck. Because he was an acquaintance, he spent only half of the original price. On the day of the purchase, they moved all the tools at home into the shop. The shop had been closed for more than two months, so the inside was very dirty. It took Wang Cheng more than half a day to clean it up.
On the fourth day, Manager Xu called him and said that the buyer he had contacted was already there. That morning, Wang Cheng switched to the truck and took the third batch of jams to the packaging factory. The truck was in manual gear, and he had gotten used to the automatic, so Wang Cheng had naturally been a bit slower because it was uncomfortable. Fortunately, they agreed to meet in the afternoon, otherwise, he would be late.
"Brother Wang, why did you deliver the goods yourself? Just let me know and I will let the master in the factory pass." Manager Xu saw Wang Cheng come down from the truck and realized that it was his. Although it was second-hand, he did not dare to look down on Wang Cheng.
"How dare I bother the master in the factory? I wanted to come here anyway." Wang Cheng said as he opened the rear door, there was not much jam inside. Mama Wang and his eldest aunt were busy with other things recently, there was a lot of chestnut and hawthorn.
Two workers moved the jam into the factory, while Wang Cheng himself took out the two big bags from the car, which were chestnuts and hawthorn.
"These chestnuts and hawthorn look good." The packaging factory was mainly for food processing. Manager Xu had seen a lot and knew a lot. He could see it at a glance, and he was even more satisfied.
"All are wild, grown naturally, and have not been sprayed with pesticides. If the craftsmanship is good, fried chestnuts will be delicious, and most of the hawthorn is not sour. Manager Xu can taste it." Wang Cheng said. He took out a bag of chestnuts that had been fried by Mama Wang herself. The taste was very fragrant, and the children in the Guan’s Village loved to eat it.
Manager Xu tasted a few politely, and said with a surprised, unexpecting expression, "This chestnut is really fragrant and the taste is good."
"We have great mountains and water, and the chestnuts produced are naturally delicious. If Manager Xu likes it, he can take a bit more for home to eat it."
Manager Xu had another idea in his mind. He asked Wang Cheng to wait for a while, and then went out to contact his boss. It took about ten minutes for the boss of the packaging factory to arrive. Boss Xie was in his forties like Manager Xu, but the former was a bit younger than the latter and had no beer belly. He was tall and strong. Wang Cheng talked with him for a few moments before learning that he was a northerner. No wonder he spoke so heartily.
