After severing ties, the cold-blooded family regretted it

Chapter 14 Picking up money!
This is indeed the largest wholesale market in the north, with a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.

The surrounding merchants were all busy loading goods and had no time to pay attention to Gu Chi and Xu Xin.

"Go away, we don't want a part-time job now."

"What can you do with your skinny arms and legs? Stop making trouble."

The bosses here all thought they were here to find hourly workers, and they didn't even give them a chance to talk, and just kicked them out of the store.

"These are all regular customers, and they have all made reservations. It's our first time here, and we're like headless flies. It's impossible." Xu Xin fanned the air with his hands while looking at the people coming and going.

If this continues, the freshest vegetables will be packed away, and even if you buy something in the end, they will all be rotten leaves.

"Oh, I think we'll have to go back empty-handed." Xu Xin was like a deflated ball.

Gu Chi was looking at the vehicles coming and going, thinking about the ins and outs inside.

Now that we are here, there is no way we can go back with an empty car.

"Brother, let's split up and look for the wholesaler. Whether we find it or not, we'll meet up at the car."

After listening to Gu Chi's suggestion, Xu Xin nodded slowly.

Gu Chi was wandering around the market with a pancake in his hand. He looked leisurely, but he actually had other plans in mind.

They only stared at the carts that were taking the vegetables away, but ignored those that were bringing the vegetables in.

You know, there are greenhouse planting bases around here, so you can grow any vegetable you want.

However, if you rashly go to the countryside to collect them, you may be charged an exorbitant price.

Just as he was thinking, his feet suddenly went soft. He looked down and saw a small black leather bag under his feet.

"What is this?" He bent down to pick it up, unzipped it, and found a thick stack of banknotes inside.

Gu Chi was so scared that he quickly hugged the small leather bag tightly in his arms. He looked around and saw that no one was seeing him, so he rushed into the alley with the bag in his arms.

"This stack is worth at least 20,000 or 30,000 yuan." No need to guess, these must have been thrown here by the wholesaler.

If I take the money back, why bother doing wholesale? I can just drive back.

For Gu Chi, the temptation of this money is too great.

In the end, his conscience brought Gu Chi back to his senses. This was other people's hard-earned money.

If he really took it away, it would mean that the other person's entire truckload of goods might be sold for nothing, and he would lose more than just a few tens of thousands of dollars.

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a man in military green work clothes looking for something on the ground with his head down in panic.

"Brother, have you seen a small black leather bag?" The man grabbed a passerby, his tanned face full of anxiety.

"did not see it."

At this moment, the man seemed to have all his strength drained away, and he sat limply on the stone steps by the roadside.

Gu Chi looked at the man with a worried look on his face, then looked at the small black leather bag in his hand. He gritted his teeth and simply stuffed the small black bag into his backpack.

"Uncle, why are you sitting here?" Gu Chi bent down and looked at the man with a simple and honest face.

"Hey, little brother, don't mention it. I came here to buy vegetables wholesale today, but I lost the money I earned from selling them." The man sighed and didn't even have the strength to raise his head. "How much did you lose? Did you go to the security room to check the surveillance?" Gu Chi asked softly, handing over a bottle of water in his hand, "Uncle, don't worry, drink some water."

"I've searched everywhere. If this mess is picked up by someone, what's the use of finding surveillance cameras?" The man stood up in annoyance. "Thank you, little brother. Hey, 22,000 yuan, this truckload of vegetables is wasted."

The number the man said matched the amount of money in the bag.

Then the money probably belongs to him.

"Uncle, don't leave in such a hurry." Seeing his uncle was about to leave, Gu Chi quickly stopped him.

"Young man, you are a good person. Thank you for giving me water. I have to go back to cook vegetables, otherwise it will be too late to deliver the goods here tomorrow."

When Gu Chi heard this, he thought it was a good opportunity and simply took out the small black bag.

"Uncle, can you see if this is the bag?"

Looking at the small black bag in Gu Chi's hand, the man was stunned at first, and then looked at Gu Chi in shock.

"This, yes, this is the one I lost."

"Uncle, can you please count the money in here?" Gu Chi handed over the small black bag.

"Young man, how can I thank you?" The man excitedly held Gu Chi's hand, and randomly pulled out a small stack of banknotes and stuffed it into Gu Chi's hand, "Young man, don't think it's too little!"

The man was very straightforward. After all, if Gu Chi really took the money, he would have nowhere to turn to.

"Uncle, it's really not necessary. I'm not giving you money for any reward. I just want to ask you for a favor." Gu Chi looked at the man embarrassedly.

"You've helped me so much, and you're still asking for help? Just tell me if you need anything."

"Actually, I also came here to wholesale vegetables, but now I see that the wholesalers here don't seem to have many surviving vegetables, so I wanted to ask you about the ins and outs of this." Gu Chi frowned slightly, with an unshakable worry on his face.

"That's all. You don't need to stock up here. Just go to my planting base. I'll have whatever vegetables you want. You can get as much as you want."

When Gu Chi heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.

"Really? That's great. I was worrying about this. To be honest, I came from Jianghai City, and this is my first time to ship goods. I'm just a rookie." Gu Chi smiled embarrassedly and scratched his head.

"I understand. But I see you are not very old. Why are you coming out to deliver the goods by yourself?" The man looked Gu Chi up and down in confusion.

He is still wearing a school uniform and has a childish face, so it is obvious that he is still a high school student.

"My parents have passed away, so I have no choice but to be self-reliant. I thought about asking my neighbor to come over and buy some vegetables to sell, and make some profit to supplement my expenses." In Gu Chi's heart, he no longer has any relationship with the Lu family, and from now on he will be an orphan with both a father and a mother.

"No more words, come on, I'll take you home!"

Gu Chi's experience successfully aroused the man's sympathy, and he felt sorry for this kind-hearted young man from the bottom of his heart.

The man asked his driver to drive back first, while he planned to take Xu Xin's car back.

"Gu Chi, just call me Uncle Li..." The two chatted as they walked towards where Xu Xin parked his car.

From a distance, I saw Xu Xin talking to a man. When he saw Gu Chi coming, Xu Xin immediately smiled.

"Gu Chi, you are finally back. This big brother said he can give us the goods. Give him a deposit of 2,000 first, and he will take us to pick up the goods later."
