Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 470: Seafood Purchasing Agent

This voice sounds so familiar?

Su Xiaoxiao was just thinking about it when she saw that tall, dark-skinned man turning around.

It was actually Zhang Dashan.

He hadn’t been seen for a while, but the guy’s tongue seemed much slicker now; his authoritative stance earlier actually resembled a leader.

"Zhang Dashan is currently serving as the workshop director at the factory."

Chen Guanghai explained to her.

Zhang Dashan also turned around upon hearing the commotion and, seeing Su Xiaoxiao and the others, grinned widely with a mouthful of white teeth: "Mr. Su, you’re finally here."

As he spoke, he walked forward enthusiastically, looking totally different from the fierce and intimidating image he had while scolding people earlier.

"Come on, let’s have a feast at the state-run restaurant. My treat."

Zhang Dashan showed her a simple and honest smile, leaving nearby workers wide-eyed.

What on earth, is there something wrong with his eyes? Is this still their foul-mouthed workshop director?

Wow, this guy actually knows how to smile, that’s so surreal.

A group of people headed straight to the state-run restaurant, where Zhang Dashan hosted a big table full of dishes.

"Mr. Su, here’s a toast to you. I’ll drink up in one go, feel free to drink as you wish."

Zhang Dashan raised his glass boldly and drank it all in one go.

Su Xiaoxiao silently poured herself a glass of plain water; no matter how good the relations were, it’s not good for a girl like her to get drunk while out.

Luckily, nobody forced her.

Chen Lingling accompanied her, drinking plain water as well, while during mealtime, Chen Guanghai and Zhang Dashan told her about the factory’s development over the past period.

Their spicy seafood cans have basically become a specialty in Hai City, and anyone passing through would usually take some back.

The factory now employs over thirty formal workers, and during busy times, they would hire temporary helpers nearby.

Currently, the factory’s monthly revenue is stable at around ten thousand, with a profit of around three thousand after deducting workers’ wages and basic expenses.

Su Xiaoxiao widened her eyes in shock upon hearing the profit; had she known opening a factory was so profitable, why would she bother working a regular job?

This monthly profit alone would take her over twenty years of work to earn. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

This is just too profitable.

Chen Guanghai laughed so hard his teeth were showing: "Mr. Su, don’t worry, we’ll ensure that your share is truthfully paid to you every month."

Su Xiaoxiao had great trust in the integrity of this person.

After some more idle chat, the subject turned to the Second Department Store’s order of the cans.

"Our manager intends to first order five hundred cans, and if satisfied, will sign a long-term purchase contract with you."

"Such trivial matters, girl, you can handle it yourself. Without you, our factory wouldn’t have been started at all, so whether five hundred cans or more, it’s all up to you."

Chen Guanghai immediately waved grandiosely: "As for the pricing, I’ll give you the cost price here; as for the store’s pricing, you decide, and the profit is all yours."

Su Xiaoxiao was instantly taken aback, feeling that her plan to become the richest person was just within reach.

By calculating this, even without working, she could earn several hundred a month, which was undoubtedly a high-income group in this era.

Unexpectedly, wealth came so suddenly.

Su Xiaoxiao recalled the main purpose of her visit this time and asked quickly: "Brother Chen, besides the seafood cans, I want to get more fresh seafood, see what you have now and get me a few hundred pounds."

"No problem, it’s our village’s turn to go to sea these days; when the time comes, we’ll see what good stuff is caught, and you can pick whatever you like."

Chen Guanghai was also straightforward in his actions; he told Su Xiaoxiao she could choose, and he really allowed her to choose.

Su Xiaoxiao was arranged to stay at the guesthouse in the county town that night, and early in the morning, just as it was dawning, someone knocked on her door.

She groggily got up and opened the door, seeing Chen Guanghai standing there excited.

"Mr. Su, hurry, you came at the right time, the fishing boats caught some good stuff today."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao immediately got energized: "Brother Chen, wait for me, I’ll change clothes and come with you."

She quickly finished washing up, put on a thick cotton jacket, and went out with Chen Guanghai.

Glancing at the clock, it was only 3:30 in the morning.

Stepping out, the wind was biting cold, early December was already very chilly, the northern wind felt like a knife cutting across the face, painfully cold.

Luckily, there was a small car, providing a bit of comfort.

But this small car wasn’t as advanced as modern ones, no air conditioning, cold in winter and hot in summer, warmth depended entirely on shivering.

Su Xiaoxiao wrapped her scarf tightly, fortunate to be wearing thermal underwear; otherwise, at this temperature, she’d turn into a walking ice sculpture in no time, it’s ridiculously cold.

Blowing out a breath, it felt like it could instantly freeze into ice shards on the ground.

Chen Guanghai drove while excitedly telling her about the morning’s haul: "This period’s sea venture, today is the best harvest among them, those mackerels weigh as much as seven to eight pounds each, and even caught two rare large groupers, you see, they bring good luck when you visit."

"You’re the lucky star of our Chenhe Village."

Su Xiaoxiao blushed from Chen Guanghai’s praise; this Brother Chen seemed so honest and good-natured, yet he could also compliment people so slickly.

In a short time, the car drove into Chenhe Village.

Upon entering the village, a group of people were seen surrounding the fishing boats, moving fish baskets down.

Each basket was filled to the brim with big fish.

Su Xiaoxiao peered over and found the seafood inside to be of very good quality.

Palm-sized prawns, baskets of large yellowfish, and a basket even contained a Chinese sturgeon weighing at least five to six pounds.

In modern times, this is considered a state-protected rare species.

Su Xiaoxiao marveled; this single fish, in modern times, would be enough to land someone in hot water.

Looking further, a basket contained two rare large groupers mentioned by Chen Guanghai, each seemingly weighing around four to five pounds.

Apart from that, many also contained pomfret, mackerel, along with various fresh seafood like squid and cuttlefish.

Su Xiaoxiao looked around, almost drooling.

For a foodie, these are a walking seafood feast.

Chen Guanghai smiled wide: "Mr. Su, take a look, pick whatever you like."

Su Xiaoxiao took a moment to open the game interface and send a message in the shopping group.

"Brothers and sisters, the seafood you’ve been eagerly waiting for has arrived, straight from the docks, all kinds of fresh seafood, I’ll post the link shortly, feel free to buy what you like."

This remark stirred up quite a reaction, with notification sounds buzzing non-stop, all urging Su Xiaoxiao to quickly post the seafood link.

Scanning briefly, good heavens, no need to say five hundred pounds, judging by the enthusiasm, even a thousand pounds might not suffice.

However, before listing them, there’s a crucial issue to resolve.

Where should these seafood be delivered?

She couldn’t just perform a magic trick of transforming the seafood in front of everyone, could she?
