Rebirth 1989: My Unlucky Career

Several people entered the house. Although it was a small farmyard, it was tidied up very neatly.

The old man smiled and said:

"Let's take a look at the tea first."

Zhao Zhuo also had the same intention. After hearing this, he and the old man came to the storage room where the tea was kept.

After Biluochun is fried, it must be stored in a ventilated and dry environment.

Therefore, in order to store tea, the old man specially covered the house with dry pine straw, which can be said to be very thoughtful.

Zhao Zhuo picked out some tea leaves, looked at them carefully, and brewed them with hot water to make sure the quality was the same as what he drank in the tea shed. Then he was completely relieved.

The next step is very simple, weigh it and pay.

Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other hand, a few hundred kilograms of tea was not a small amount, and the car Zhao Zhuo drove could barely fit it in.

The old man saw that all the tea leaves he had been worrying about were sold at once, and his heart and face were filled with joy.

The uncle said very enthusiastically:

"Your aunt has gone to the tea garden and will be back soon. Don't leave at noon, stay for a meal.

Anyway, there’s nothing good to eat in the mountains and forests here.

Even if it’s some farm food, don’t dislike it.”

Hearing the uncle's kind invitation, Zhao Zhuo and Zhang Yun repeatedly declined, but the uncle was too enthusiastic, so they had to stay with a wry smile.

Seeing that he could not go back in the morning, Zhao Zhuo quickly called Zhuo Yun's fleet that had just arrived in Jinling to deliver goods, and asked the person in charge of the transport fleet to book a warehouse in advance to store tea.

At the same time, the convoy also canceled its return journey and was waiting to transport tea.

After all, the jeep driven by Zhao Zhuo was right next to him, so he didn’t know when he would receive the tea leaves.

By the time Zhao Zhuo had arranged these things, it was almost noon.

After the aunt came back, she heard that all the tea this year was sold out. She was very happy and hurriedly started cooking.

I have to say that Auntie cooks very quickly.

Soon, a table of authentic farm food was placed on the table.

Looking at the table of dishes in front of them that were ordinary but rich in flavor, Zhao Zhuo and Zhang Yun couldn't help but swallow.

Seeing this situation, the uncle couldn't help laughing and said:

"Hahaha, you two must be starving, let's come and eat quickly."

The enthusiastic uncle originally wanted to have a drink with Zhao Zhuo, but Zhao Zhuo was still driving, so he had no choice but to give up.

Zhao Zhuo asked casually while eating his meal:

"By the way, sir, why are you and your wife the only ones at home? Where is the child?"

The old man smiled and replied:

"Hey, I have a daughter who is married far away, and a son who works in the city. I only have time to come back on weekends."

Hearing this, Zhang Yun noticed that the aunt looked a little lonely when her daughter was getting married far away, and couldn't help but sigh:

"Auntie, your daughter is married far away. You must miss your daughter very much."

The aunt nodded slowly:

"Yes, I am always worried that she will suffer hardship when I marry far away. Alas, how pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo was also a little silent.

But the uncle on the side said to the aunt:

"Hey, tell me, you want to bring this up in a chat. What's there to say? How can a daughter not get married?"

After hearing what the uncle said, the aunt's face suddenly changed:

"Hmph, I don't like hearing what you say.

Yes, you are the only one who has a heart of stone and doesn’t love your daughter! Then I love my daughter, what can I do about my daughter?

You said you’ve only come back once in half a month, and we don’t know whether you’re having a good time there, so how can we not make people worry about you!”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo was stunned:

"Auntie, how often did you say you would come back?"

The aunt said matter-of-factly:

"Half a month, it's long enough

Alright."

After hearing the affirmative statement, Zhao Zhuo felt even more confused.

"Come back once every half month... May I take the liberty of asking where your daughter is married to?"

Hearing Zhao Zhuo ask this question, the aunt suddenly looked even sadder:

"Oh, I married to Dangtu!"

"Dangtu?"

Hearing this unfamiliar place name, Zhao Zhuo thought about it for a while. After he figured it out, his expression suddenly became a little weird:

"If I remember correctly, Dangtu is just south of Jinling, about fifty kilometers away from here."

The aunt shook her head:

"It's not just fifty kilometers, it's more than sixty kilometers!"

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo and Zhang Yun looked at each other, and both saw a trace of surprise and helplessness in each other's eyes.

I have long heard that girls in Jinling do not marry outsiders, but I never thought that they could be so conservative.

A neighboring city that is more than 60 kilometers apart has become an out-marriage.

This is really the so-called different customs in different places, which really opened Zhao Zhuo's eyes.

Zhao Zhuo really couldn't express his opinion on this point of view, so he could only eat in silence.

However, the aunt thought that Zhang Yun was a girl, so she earnestly advised her not to marry far away, which made Zhang Yun feel dumbfounded.

After the meal, the uncle very thoughtfully gave Zhao Zhuo several tea farmers he knew who grew better quality tea, so that Zhao Zhuo would not have trouble finding good tea when purchasing tea.

In this way, plus the list given by the tea shop owner, plus the list given by the tea grower, basically we can purchase a large amount of tea.

Now Zhao Zhuo felt a lot more relieved.

After Zhao Zhuo and Zhang Yun said goodbye, they first went back to Jinling City and placed the several hundred kilograms of tea purchased this time in the warehouse that the team had rented.

At this time, the fleet of empty trucks that had finished unloading the goods was also on standby.

After Zhao Zhuo arranged for people to unload the tea leaves from the jeep into the warehouse, he was about to lead the team to Qingshan again when a man suddenly walked over and said to Zhao Zhuo with a smile:

"Hello boss, are you purchasing tea?"

This sentence is basically equivalent to a nonsense sentence.

The workers haven't finished unloading yet, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that they are unloading tea leaves.

Zhao Zhuo looked at the person in front of him and nodded lightly:

"Who are you…"

The visitor continued with a professional smile and said:

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Cao Dabao. I am a tea farmer. I see you are transporting tea leaves to the warehouse, so I want to ask if you want to buy or sell?"

Zhao Zhuo took a look at Cao Dabao in front of him. He was of medium build, wearing an awkward-looking suit, and had thin skin and tender flesh. He couldn't possibly be a tea farmer.

However, Zhao Zhuo did not point this out, but said lightly:

"I buy it."

When he heard the word "acquisition", Cao Dabao's eyes suddenly lit up:

"I see that you have rented such a large warehouse, so the purchase volume must be quite large.

Could you please tell me what kind of tea you want to buy?"
