She can join if she wants, what’s it to her.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t care; with Zhang Dongi’s popularity and ability, it’s a wonder if she’s chosen.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t take Zhang Dongi seriously at all.
She’s all talk and nothing else, Su Xiaoxiao never considered her a competitor, but the few old employees might give her a run for her money.
After lunch, the three of them laughed and chatted as they prepared to return to work.
Just as they reached the entrance, they ran into a young female comrade, who was anxiously asking soone about sothing.
The person she stopped was Huang i, who was explaining sothing to her. Spotting the three from afar, Huang i quickly said to the young woman, "Comrade, aren’t you asking about the electric sewing machine? You should ask our Comrade Su, she’s definitely the person to ask."
Most colleagues at the departnt store knew that Su Xiaoxiao had sourced the electric mini sewing machines through relatives.
"Comrade Su, co over here quickly. This lady comrade wants to buy an electric sewing machine."
Huang i enthusiastically waved at her from afar.
With business coming her way, Su Xiaoxiao naturally wouldn’t decline.
If you don’t make money, you’re a fool.
Walking closer, she looked at the female comrade, "Comrade, do you want to buy a sewing machine?"
The comrade’s na was Zhang Yuanyuan, and her family had been running a tailor shop for generations.
A while back, she heard that the departnt store launched a new mini electric sewing machine, and thought of buying a few to try out.
Upon hearing Su Xiaoxiao’s question, she looked up to see a young girl, about eighteen or nineteen, standing earnestly in front of her.
The girl was quite pretty, with fair skin and delicate features, like a movie star on TV.
When she spoke, her eyes curved, sparkling brightly, making people feel very comfortable.
She stared blankly for a second, then eagerly said, "Hello, comrade, I want three mini electric sewing machines. Do you know when the departnt store will have them?"
She really did ask the right person.
Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, the procurent manager had just reserved thirty mini sewing machines from her, with an agreed delivery date the day after tomorrow.
She thought for a mont, then replied, "Comrade, don’t worry. A batch of goods is coming the day after tomorrow; make sure to co early to line up."
These sewing machines are highly sought after now; they’re always snatched up once they arrive at the departnt store.
"Okay, thank you so much."
Wang Yuanyuan broke into a wide smile upon hearing there was stock.
After thanking Su Xiaoxiao repeatedly, she happily left.
Su Xiaoxiao herself didn’t expect the electric sewing machines to be so popular; they’re not only scarce on the black market but are constantly being sought at the departnt store too.
No wonder Skinny and the others are anxious to order from her.
Initially, she thought these pricey items would slow in sales after a while, but it’s surprising that they’re still in demand every day.
She’s certainly happy to make money.
Thinking about the business she has to handle in the afternoon, she was even happier.
Yesterday, she had told the general manager and Chen ilan to find her at the bike shed after work to collect the big bones and pig blood they ordered.
Those items are too conspicuous to bring to work directly, so she planned to arrive early at the scheduled place to retrieve them.
The afternoon’s grocery counter wasn’t too busy, and close to closing ti, there were virtually no custors.
Seeing little business, Su Xiaoxiao started tidying up a few minutes early, ready to dash out as soon as work ended.
Soon, the closing ti arrived.
She slung her bag over her shoulder and walked out, turning her head to Zhang Yulan and Qin Shuang, "Sister Zhang, Shuangshuang, co to the bike shed later. Everything’s stored there."
Seeing them nod, she felt assured and briskly walked to the bike shed.
At the bike shed, seeing no one around, she discreetly took out the goods from the small warehouse she had.
To avoid arousing suspicion, she had placed the pig blood in rough ceramic jars, weighing about ten pounds each.
The big bones were sorted into burlap sacks according to weight.
When Zhang Yulan and Qin Shuang arrived, they saw a heap of goods beside Su Xiaoxiao.
Such rare items, she just placed them there so casually, she wasn’t worried about soone stealing them.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yulan couldn’t help but ask.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you putting these here? If soone steals them, you’d have no place to cry."
"Oh Sister Zhang, I got careless. I’ll be more careful in the future. But I did ask the old guard to keep an eye out, so it should be okay."
Zhang Yulan sighed; this girl really has a carefree spirit.
The two paid and took the goods, which were substantial and took so effort to carry.
Fortunately, both of them had bicycles and had prepared rope beforehand to tie everything to the bicycles.
Walking ho slowly, there shouldn’t be any issues.
"Xiaoxiao, we’ll get going then."
After saying goodbye to Su Xiaoxiao, the two hurriedly left with the goods.
These were all fresh supplies, so they needed to rush ho to store them properly.
As the two pushed the goods away, just as they left, Chen ilan and Yan Guohua arrived.
The two were taken aback seeing the items in front of Su Xiaoxiao.
The pig blood looked quite fresh, and those big bones, were they really bones?
There seed to be two or three ounces of at on each pound of bone.
Yan Guohua couldn’t help saying, "Xiao Su, these bones have a lot of at on them. Should I pay you extra?"
These were aty bones, and the price Su Xiaoxiao gave them was indeed very cheap, making him feel sowhat guilty benefiting from the generosity.
Chen ilan also nodded, "The general manager is right, Xiao Su, should we pay you a bit more extra?"
Outside, even if these items could be found, the price would probably be several tis higher.
"General Manager, Director Chen, to be honest, the price from my relative was exactly that, it was a coincidence that there was surplus; we may not have this luck again. We’re all in this together, so no need to be polite."
Seeing her insist, they could only pay according to the agreed price.
Su Xiaoxiao accepted the paynt and sent them off, then rode her bike ho.
Before leaving, she stopped by the state-run restaurant to get a few dishes.
Today was Liu Cuilan’s birthday, she had to treat the family to a hearty al.
Thinking this, she accelerated on her bike to head ho.
Just as she arrived at her doorstep, she saw a shadow sneaking around her gate, peeking furtively into the courtyard.
The figure looked shifty, clearly up to no good.
"Who are you? What are you doing at my doorstep?"
Su Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke, startling the person.
The other turned around, and Su Xiaoxiao recognized him as Sun Hongjun, the village secretary who had visited once.
She frowned imdiately, "What are you doing here?"
