Chapter 17 There is no middleman!
"We're not going to the market?" Xu Xin was extremely surprised. "We have so many vegetables. If we don't go to the market, where else can we go?"

"At the entrance of the community, think about it, if we give all these vegetables to those wholesalers, then the difference in price will go into their pockets."

"If we go directly to the gate of the community, there will be no middlemen making a profit from the price difference. We can make more money and those people can buy at a cheaper price. It's a win-win situation for both parties!" Gu Chi adjusted his sitting position slightly.

Uncle Li was also a down-to-earth man. He packed 30,000 yuan worth of goods for them and even gave them half a pig.

When he thought of the dishes in the car, Gu Chi felt at ease.

If everything goes well, he can earn 10,000 yuan more from this truckload of vegetables than he would from selling them to merchants at the vegetable market.

"It's brilliant, really brilliant!" Xu Xin admired Gu Chi's operation from the bottom of his heart.

Obviously, this kid is a few years younger than him, but it turns out he is much more cunning than him.

Gu Chi smiled, told Xu Qingwan about his idea, and asked her to contact the property management of the community first.

Xu Qingwan was also a smart person. As soon as she hung up the phone with Gu Chi, she started to contact other classmates in the class.

Soon, the news of Gu Chi selling vegetables spread.

Before the car could even stand still, it was surrounded by residents holding umbrellas.

"It was knee-deep wet in this weather, and I was wondering where to buy groceries, and then they were delivered to me."

"Yeah, I forgot to buy groceries and I've already had two meals of boiled white noodles."

"This is really timely relief. I think we should quickly contact our relatives at home and ask those who live nearby to help buy some wine."

……

Everyone was talking about it, and Xu Qingwan also came over to help maintain order.

Gu Chi and Xu Xin were also busy, one was responsible for weighing the dishes and the other was responsible for reception and collecting money.

"This vegetable is really fresh, and it's much cheaper than the vegetable market."

"Uncles and aunts, we still have half a pig in the car. If you want to buy some meat, you can. But each household is limited to two kilograms, so there isn't much meat. Please forgive us." Gu Chi was sweet-mouthed and knew how to behave. He gave some change to everyone.

Although the money is not much, the feeling is different.

Xu Xin's residential area is the largest in the city, and nearly half of the goods are sold in this community alone.

"Brother, let's go to the next place. Are you too tired?" Looking at the tired Xu Xin, Gu Chi couldn't bear it.

But he doesn't even have a driver's license now, and there's no way he can take turns driving with Xu Xin.

"You two take a rest, I'll drive!" Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw a man wearing a raincoat and rain boots walking towards me.

"Dad?" After seeing who it was, Xu Xin realized that the man who was speaking was actually his father - Xu Zhaolin!

"You two did such a big thing and yet you kept it a secret from your family." Xu Zhaolin complained with a gloomy face, but still sat in the driver's seat.

"We are just afraid that you won't agree. You even scolded us when we drove your car before. What's more, we have to drive on the highway now." Xu Xin complained in a low voice and sat obediently next to Gu Chi.

"How old were you then? How old are you now? Tell me so that I can take you out for a drive. It will be safer." Xu Zhaolin took the cigarette handed to him by Gu Chi. Although he was very angry, he also did it out of safety considerations.

The car soon arrived at the next residential area, which was just like Xu Qingwan's home and was surrounded in an instant.

Soon, a large truck of vegetables was sold out in just one day.

Several people were so tired that they collapsed on the bed. "Brother Xu Xin, I will give you your share and Qingwan's share after I settle the bill."

"Don't be in a hurry. School will start in two days. You can take a rest first and talk about it later." Xu Xin's yawning voice came from the other end of the phone.

"No, no, since we are doing business together, nothing can be ambiguous. Let's just leave it at that. You can take a rest first." After saying that, Gu Chi hung up the phone.

The total sales of this truckload of vegetables was over 52,000, which was much higher than expected.

Because Gu Chi picked up Uncle Li's wallet, he was left with only 20,000 yuan of the original cost of 30,000 yuan.

According to the proportions among the three people, Gu Chi gave the money to Xu Xin and his sister.

After all this trouble, I earned more than 10,000 yuan.

In addition to the virtual currency I bought before, which has already shown signs of rising in value, I can save the more than 10,000 yuan I earned from selling vegetables, and I will still have a few thousand yuan left for living expenses.

Seeing the money in his wallet increasing little by little, Gu Chi felt confident.

In the blink of an eye, it's time to start school.

To celebrate the last success, brother and sister Xu Xin and Xu Qingwan came to Gu Chi with the ingredients.

Although the place is a bit simple, for children of their age who are still under the control of their parents, it is like a paradise.

"Oh, Gu Chi, I can smell the fragrance from far away." Xu Xin smelled the fragrance in the yard as soon as he entered the door.

"You guys are here. My stewed pig's trotters are ready. Wash the vegetables and let's start the hotpot!" Today is the most relaxing time for Gu Chi in the past two years.

Xu Qingwan rolled up her sleeves and put the vegetables in clean water. After washing the vegetables, the pig's trotters stewed by Gu Chi were also out of the pot.

The red oil soup base was bubbling in the pot, and the soft and rotten pig's trotters were put into the pot. The aroma of meat mixed with the spicy aroma made the three of them swallow their saliva.

"Cheers to our 'first victory'!" The three of them clinked their glasses together, their childish faces full of excitement.

"Gu Chi didn't expect that you actually have a business mind. This time I am completely impressed by you." Xu Xin gave Gu Chi a thumbs up.

"Yeah, Gu Chi, how did you come up with all these ideas?" Xu Qingwan also echoed.

Although Gu Chi has been smart since he was young, he has never been as careless as this one.

After listening to her brother's description of what happened in the wholesale market, Xu Qingwan became even more impressed with Gu Chi's character.

Having courage and being able to seize opportunities that fall from the sky, and most importantly, returning lost property to its owner, are indeed rare and precious in today's impetuous society.

"What's the big deal? By the way, Brother Xu Xin, if you feel comfortable, you can give me the money you have and I will help you manage it." Now Gu Chi had no way to explain the matter of virtual currency to him, so Xu Xin was also confused.

"Okay!" Xu Xin didn't even ask Gu Chi what kind of financial management he wanted to do, and agreed directly.

This actually surprised Gu Chi: "You didn't even ask me why I was doing this, but you just agreed to it. What if I lose money?"

Xu Xin stared at the hot pot and picked up a soft and boneless pig's trotter with his chopsticks: "I believe you, I'll pay you back if you lose. What else is there? Can you still cheat me out of this little money?"

Xu Xin smiled gratefully. This feeling of being believed in unconditionally was really unfamiliar.

In the Lu family, no matter what you do or say, they will doubt it at the first moment.

As long as Lu Tianci said it, they all believed Lu Tianci's words without even needing any other evidence to prove it.
