Chapter 185 The First Person to Eat Crab
Chapter 185 The First Person to Eat Crab
Qin Rushan pointed to the doorway, "We're here to make money! Not to be spendthrifts! In this place, one cup of wine is worth two trips' wages! One touch, and your bonus for next month is gone!"
"Brother Qin...I...I was wrong..." The monkey lowered his head, his face full of shame.
"I just... I just couldn't control myself for a moment..." Da Zhuang was so embarrassed that his face turned red and his neck bulged, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Qin Rushan snorted coldly: "Stop with your scheming! Anyone who can't control themselves can forget about joining my Qin Rushan's convoy! I don't want spineless cowards in my team!"
These words were harsh, but they were for their own good.
When you're out and about, especially in places like this where all sorts of people mingle, if you get involved with drugs, gambling, prostitution, or prostitution, your life is ruined.
Monkey and Dazhuang quickly sat up straight, their eyes fixed straight ahead, completely different from their lustful expressions just moments before.
Huang Daya watched from the side, completely convinced.
Qin Rushan is a skilled administrator!
These hotheads were scolded by him until they were treated like grandsons, not daring to utter a single word.
"Brother Qin, you're amazing!"
Huang Daya, carrying the half-empty bottle of Moutai, was about to pour it into Qin Rushan's cup again.
"Brother, this glass must be full! I'm so happy today because of what I said earlier, so I want to apologize." Huang Daya's face was flushed, and his breath reeked of alcohol. "Let's drink until we drop!"
"Click."
A large, calloused hand covered the rim of the cup.
Qin Rushan didn't move, his bottom firmly on the sofa. With his other hand, he stubbed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, his movements swift and decisive.
"Boss Huang, forget about this wine."
Qin Rushan grabbed a napkin from the table and casually wiped the oil off his hands: "The convoy has to move at five o'clock tomorrow morning. Several lives are on our hands; we can't be careless."
As he spoke, he leaned back, his back sinking into the sofa, but he didn't look relaxed at all.
"Besides, my wife is timid."
Qin Rushan's lips twitched into a half-smile. "If I don't hurry back, she could sit there all night with the lamp on. That woman is easily frightened; I have to go back and coax her."
Yang Dong, who was sitting next to him, almost bit his tongue off when he heard this.
Is this still the same King Yama Qin who chopped millstones with an axe and just now scolded them like grandsons?
Huang Daya was taken aback for a moment, then burst into an even louder laugh, slapping his thigh and pointing at Qin Rushan: "Hey! I didn't know! Brother Qin is quite the ladies' man! Alright, alright, it's good that you love your wife, I won't urge you to drink anymore!"
He slammed the bottle on the table, his chubby face drawing closer. The drunkenness on his face had mostly dissipated, and he lowered his voice, his tone becoming mysterious.
"But brother, even if you don't drink the wine, you still have to make money, right?"
Qin Rushan raised an eyelid: "What do you mean?"
"Those three Jiefang trucks of yours, they can carry several tons of cargo."
Huang Daya stretched out his chubby hand, adorned with a gold ring, and gestured. "Going back empty-handed? The gas money, tolls, and food expenses for these brothers—that's all money being thrown into the water. You just want to hear a bang?"
That hits the nail on the head.
Running a transport business is most dangerous if you're not going to make an empty trip.
They made a profit when they came, but if they leave the melons empty, the profit will be reduced by 20%.
Qin Rushan tapped his fingers twice on his knee: "Boss Huang, do you have any goods?"
"Not only do they exist, but they're also in high demand."
Huang Daya looked around and saw that all the girls in the private room had left. He then lowered his body even further, and the smell of garlic mixed with the smell of cigarettes went straight into Qin Rushan's nose.
"I have some connections in the south, and I got a batch of digital watches and a few boxes of calculators. These things are dirt cheap in Guangzhou, but if I bring them to your county, or even further north..."
Huang Daya chuckled, revealing two large gold teeth: "Twice or three times the price, it's like child's play."
Digital watch.
Upon hearing those three words, Yang Dong, who was standing next to him, started breathing heavily.
These days, if someone wears one of these on their wrist, their arms will swing three inches higher than usual when they walk!
You need a ration coupon to buy this stuff at the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the price is sky-high on the black market.
Qin Rushan's mind raced with calculations.
Now that the provincial capital has already started to take action, it's only a matter of time before the county towns follow suit. It's just a matter of who will be the first to take the plunge!
These days, the bold get rich, and the timid starve.
Li Xiaotao, that little brat, dared to risk her life to negotiate a deal worth several thousand yuan with him. Does he, Qin Rushan, not even deserve a woman's attention?
If you want your wife to live a life of luxury and not be bullied by scum like Niu Guihua, you need money to stand up for yourself.
"What's the price?" Qin Rushan didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.
Huang Daya stretched out a hand and flipped it over.
Qin Rushan didn't say anything, but took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his mouth, but didn't light it.
He was making an estimate.
This price is significantly lower than the market price, and the profit margin is alarmingly high.
"Where is the goods?"
"It's right there in the warehouse behind the transfer station, ready to be loaded onto the truck anytime."
Seeing that Qin Rushan was interested, Huang Daya pressed his advantage, "As long as you nod, after those melon rinds are unloaded, this batch of goods can be directly stuffed into the very back of the truck bed. The goods are small, so it won't take long to load them all."
Qin Rushan took the cigarette out of his mouth and squeezed it flat with two fingers.
He suddenly stood up.
"Done."
Two words, spoken with resounding force.
"Yang Dong!" Qin Rushan shouted.
"Hey!" Yang Dong jumped up from the sofa, his face full of excitement.
"Go and call Monkey and Dazhuang back, stop them from lying in the toilet like that."
Qin Rushan strode out, "Back to the transfer station now, load the goods!"
Huang Daya watched Qin Rushan's decisive back figure and was so happy that his back teeth were showing. He quickly followed after him.
This time when we go back, the cargo in this truck bed won't just be goods, it'll be the Qin family's gold and silver mountains!
The next morning, before dawn, the fog at the provincial capital's transfer station shrouded the few dim streetlights in a hazy glow.
The three Jiefang trucks had already started up, idling and roaring, making the half-open iron gate vibrate.
Qin Rushan walked around the vehicle one last time, and deliberately patted the innermost part of the truck bed twice.
He flicked the half-smoked cigarette butt out the window; the sparks arced through the wind before being instantly extinguished by the car wheels.
"Let's go home."
