Chapter 703: 703 return trip

"Hurry up and rest, we three haven’t had time to rest together, let’s take turns driving."

"Alright."

The next morning, after eating breakfast at the tractor factory, the three loaded diesel along with the seeder and headed back.

Xiang Dong drove first. The remaining two just lay down in the back.

Wei Kaiyun bought two grass mats, this way it’s a bit more comfortable.

However, the sun was too bright during the day, dazzling, couldn’t keep eyes open, so couldn’t sleep.

They only brought lunch, in this weather, by the time they ate the steamed buns, they had a bit of taste, but there’s no choice given the conditions.

"Let’s have dinner in town tonight."

The two were absolutely obedient.

This town was quite big. After the three had dinner, "You two go fill water, I’ll go buy something."

Wei Kaiyun wanted to buy straw hats. He had already asked where they were sold, so he went straight there.

Accidentally, Wei Kaiyun entered the local black market.

After wandering around, he bought a lot of jade jewelry; there was no gold or silver, but these were still quite cheap. A large pack cost just three hundred yuan. Really a bargain.

He bought the straw hats too; just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw someone pushing a cart full of wood. Wei Kaiyun recognized them, they were good Huanghuali wood.

"Fellow, what’s this?"

"Leftover from the family in the past, now not needed, wanted to ask if anyone wants them."

"Still have some at home?"

"Yes, two more loads like this."

"How much do you want for them?"

"Fifty yuan per cart."

"Okay, if all are this kind of wood, I’ll take them all."

"Really?"

"Yes, come, push the cart with me to the front of the restaurant, load it onto our tractor, then I’ll go with you to see, if it’s good, I’ll take it all."

The person was very excited, kept talking to Wei Kaiyun on the way, "Comrade, you clearly have an eye for quality. I still have two sets of furniture at home, one set of Chicken Wing wood, and one set of Zitan."

Wei Kaiyun was interested, "What are they?"

"Canopy bed, dressing table, two heated bed tables, two boxes, and the tabletop."

"That’s quite a lot, but I can’t bring them back, I only have a tractor. Even if I want to buy, I can’t bring them back."

"They can all be disassembled, it’s the craftsmanship of an old carpenter."

"But even if they are taken apart, I can’t reassemble them in the future, there aren’t many with such skills."

The person no longer spoke. Yes, even disassembled, it requires knowledgeable people to do it.

"How much do you plan to sell the two sets of furniture for?"

"One hundred fifty per set." The person said gloomily, what’s the point of asking for the price, can’t buy them anyway.

"Ask if these two sets of furniture can be loaded onto the vehicle after disassembly, we need to leave space to sit as we’re three people."

"Comrade, you really want to buy?"

"If it’s possible, I’ll take them all."

"Alright." This brought new energy to the person, kept talking.

Wei Kaiyun just chatted with "Uh-huhs."

At the restaurant entrance, Chaoyang and Xiang Dong helped to load the wood, then Wei Kaiyun paid and went together to the person’s home.

Wei Kaiyun took a look, indeed, it was good stuff. All the wood was taken.

"Uncle Wei, why do you need so much wood?"

"For Feifei, keeping it for making furniture as her dowry."

The two were quite envious internally, the little sister was really fortunate, Uncle Wei started preparations so early.

"Comrade, take a look at the furniture, do you like them?

This Chicken Wing wood set is already disassembled; the Zitan set can be disassembled just by taking apart the bed.

Look, the boxes can’t be disassembled, just load them directly, you can still lie on them, tie the bed pieces with hemp rope, I think it should fit on the vehicle."

Wei Kaiyun looked around, "Alright, then load them, but we’ll suffer since we won’t have a place to sleep and worry about falling off when sleeping."

The person just laughed, as long as someone buys it.

Chaoyang and Xiang Dong didn’t mind, it was all for the little sister. Even sitting back they were willing.

Finally, after an hour, they managed to load everything. The person, with great reluctance, gave them lots of thick hemp ropes.

Wei Kaiyun didn’t sleep that night. He drove the tractor, though not fast, still better than traveling just during the day; after all, nights were cooler.

Chaoyang helped with the flashlight, much better than groping in the dark.

They only stopped in the morning to refill water and eat.

Three days later, they finally entered the city by evening. But they didn’t stop.

It wasn’t until ten thirty at night that they entered the village.

They drove directly to Wei Kaiyun’s house.

Shang Zhenkun heard the noise, immediately got up to open the door, saw a cartload of stuff, was taken aback.

"Master Shang, this is the lumber I bought."

Shang Zhenkun shone the flashlight, "Good stuff."

"I’ll go in and see Xinyu."

Jiang Xinyu already knew they had returned, seeing Wei Kaiyun come in, felt he had lost weight.

"Honey, I’m back, I got Huanghuali wood, and a set of Zitan furniture, a set of Chicken Wing wood, I’ll put them in the warehouse first.

These are jade pieces you like. Take a look first, I’ll unload the vehicle."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Wei Kaiyun kissed his wife’s forehead, turned to unload.

The speed of the four was fast, taking only an hour to unload everything into the empty warehouse.

Sister-in-law Liu began cooking as soon as they stopped.

It was pancakes, millet porridge, mixed wild vegetables, and stir-fried pickles with meat.

"You two hurry up inside and eat, then get a good rest."

The two did not hesitate, washed up, and went inside to eat.

Wei Kaiyun drank only two bowls of porridge, which made him feel a lot better. The two young men each had three pancakes and two bowls of porridge, with Sister-in-law Liu urging them to eat more.

The two felt a bit embarrassed after, having eaten so much.

"Drive the tractor back, get some rest. Tomorrow maintain the tractor, did you remember what Mr. Xu told you?"

Chaoyang nodded, drove away. Xiang Dong went to find the brigade’s gate key, not leaving the tractor outside made them feel uneasy.

Li Yungui heard the noise and quickly went to the brigade, seeing the two kids return, his worry finally eased.

"Dad, we also brought back a new seeder this time, Mr. Xu said it can evenly plant and can sow wheat."

"Really? That’s great."

Li Yungui circled the tractor, feeling very pleased.

"You two go to sleep, Chaoyang, tell your mom, I’m sleeping at the brigade."

Li Yungui looked at the barrels in the trailer, and a big iron thing, feeling more satisfied. His little village now had two tractors, haha, let them envy it. Next time during meetings, must have Chaoyang drive to send him. Make them jealous.
