Chapter Thirty-Four: You Want to Open a Grocery Store?

  After leaving the airport, Guo Yu took a taxi and rushed to the International Trade City of Yiwu. Here, you can see everything you want or don't want, which is enough for Guo Yu to complete his procurement plan without having to run around everywhere.

  "Boss, how much is this shampoo selling for? I want the kind without outer packaging. What's the price? 12 yuan is too expensive. What flavor and effect do you have? I need a large quantity, can you make it cheaper? For long-term business in the future, okay, 8.5 yuan is a deal, I'll take 100,000 bottles."

  "Sister, how much is this toothpaste and toothbrush? The toothpaste is 1.2 yuan, the toothbrush is 0.6 yuan... I need a large quantity, at least 200,000 sets, can you make it cheaper? Toothpaste 0.75 yuan, toothbrush 0.32 yuan... okay, settled."

  "Boss, how much for these stockings? I want all colors, mainly flesh-colored ones. How much is it? One block six? I can order that online. I need a lot, 500,000 pieces now. Eighty-three cents per piece, deal?"

  Guo Yu carried a bag, slowly turning around in the business city, seeing a suitable one and going forward to discuss, purchasing and leaving the address of the large warehouse rented locally for free, then rushing to the next one.

  Cheap watches, rubber shoes, socks, towels, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, toilet water, transparent soap, skin care products, cosmetics, sanitary napkins, pots, bowls, ladles, basins, candies, biscuits, wine, needles and threads, fabrics, etc.

  Guo Yu himself was dizzy, anyway, he saw something and bought it, and didn't need him to move.

  Cigarettes were the last to be bought, this thing is a national monopoly, there is no large-scale wholesale here, and finally got the information from the boss who sells wine and water, and found a large cigarette wholesaler, but I estimate that the cigarettes are fake.

  Kuo Yu took a drag and found the flavor to be quite ordinary. Although it wasn't spicy, it was far inferior to what he usually smoked. Of course, there's no comparison - what kind of cigarettes do you smoke?

  This boss actually produces a brand of cigarettes with his own name, this cigarette is wholesale 1.8 yuan per box, the box only has a phoenix logo, just right, and it's convenient, tell the boss to come up with 50,000 first, then add the three words "Hua Fu Tang" when producing next time, I'll come back to buy more, in large quantities.

  After five days of busy work, all things were finally packed up, and Guo Yu returned to Hong Kong after receiving the space.

  It's been a few days since I've seen Huang Wenjing, and I really miss her. In the evening, I invited Huang Wenjing out, and as soon as she got in the car, Guo Yu gave her a passionate kiss, leaving Huang Wenjing breathless.

  "What's for dinner tonight?" Gu Yu asked, stroking Huang Wenjing's slightly disheveled hair.

  "Let's go to the snack street, I want to eat bowl rice, egg tart, spicy fish balls, put chai ko...". Huang Wenjing counted one by one there, like a greedy little girl, which made Guo Yu laugh out loud.

  Huang Wen gently patted Guo Yu's shoulder and said, "Don't laugh at her, it's been a long time since I've eaten here, still thinking about the times when I accompanied my classmates to eat during university."

  "Yes ma'am." Guo Yu gave a salute and then started the car, heading to Mong Kok's snack street.

  Guo Yu and Huang Wenjing were eating together, Huang Wenjing was like a little girl, holding a string of spicy fish balls in her hand, Guo Yu was also helping her hold a rich soft ice cream, the two walked and chatted while walking, today Huang Wenjing's interest was very high, from time to time she would put her arm around Guo Yu's arm, pulling him to look left and right.

  It was a wonderful night, and when it was almost 11 o'clock, he finally sent Huang Wenjing home. The two of them shared a tender kiss in the car before she got out. The car stopped at the entrance of the Huang's house for nearly half an hour before Huang Wenjing got out and happily ran into her house.

  This girl is so wicked, she only starts fires and doesn't care about putting them out.

  Go back home and have a good rest for the night. The next day, send his son to school. In the car, Guo Yu asked his son: "Son, is your teacher Huang good to you?"

  The son looked at his old man and said: "Are you having an affair with our teacher?"

  His son's words made Guo Yu stunned, how are kids nowadays so difficult to deal with?

  "You see, it's actually for your own good. You see, I've got involved with your teacher, and she'll treat you even better now. Isn't that right?" Gu Yu shamelessly defended himself.

  "What if I go to college then?" The big eyes of his son shone with a light that could be either innocent or teasing.

  "It depends on the situation, if there's a pretty female teacher, then it's not impossible?" Anyway, it was like this already, Guo Yu also didn't bother to explain.

  "Dad, can you leave me some?"

  Thanks to you little rabbit, Xiaobing Douzi now thinks like this. The current education is speechless.

  Smiling and chatting, he sent his son to the school gate, exchanged a few glances with Huang Wenjing, before Guo Yu went to the company.

  After arriving at the company, I called Huang Jiaqiang to ask about the situation. Huang Jiaqiang said that the ship had been settled, and the steel and cement had all been purchased and put in the warehouse. The engineering machinery was a bit messy, but some of it had already been sorted out, and it would probably take about three days to finish everything up. As for the power plant and steel mill matters handed over by Guo Yu, they were just organizing personnel to carry out operations.

  Guo Yu also knew that the power plant, steel mill and cement factory were not things that could be rushed. From project initiation to completion within two months was already quite good. He took out time to send all the prepared items to Minguo, and then waited for the day of departure.

  Let's worry about the auction house for now. In a few days, I'll be going to Nanyang and will be busy for a long time, so I won't have any spare energy.

  I went there to check out the exhibits in the space, and now there are about three thousand European artworks, all of which I personally purchased on my last trip to New York. It's been a while since Gill has had any news, and I hope he doesn't disappoint me.

  After a whole day of careful selection, 450 pieces of European art were finally selected. This time the selection was more chaotic, with all types of items including oil paintings, furniture, ceramics, silverware, sculptures and so on. It's quite comprehensive, and several high-quality items were selected from each category, which should be able to sell for a good price.

  I am now buying a large number of factory materials and other items, which requires a lot of cash. The tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars I currently have are clearly not enough, so I still need to work hard.

  The operation process is the same as before, still in HSBC's insurance room. Guo Yu has become familiar with the manager responsible for the insurance room, and then notifies Zhang Chong to organize people to pick up the goods. Zhang Chong is no longer surprised now, as long as he organizes his men to handle things properly.

  With nothing to do, he ran to 1915 to see the situation of Da Zhu and others. In the villa, he met Xiao Ni and Hu Yunyuan. The two people happily came forward and hugged his arm, missing him for several days.

  Call Da Zhu to understand the current situation, Da Zhu reported that it has been roughly prepared and should be able to depart in four days. Guo Yu asked about Jiel's situation, and Da Zhu said that a few days ago, Jiel happened to send a batch of artworks, which have been put into the warehouse, but Jiel didn't wait for Guo Yu and returned to New York on the second day.

  Kuo Yu was delighted to see so many artworks in the warehouse.
