Chapter 162 Durian Shell

Chapter 162: 162 Durian Shell

The boss recognized them at once and knew who among them was the decision-maker, the woman. He enthusiastically introduced Susu to the new items in the shop.

"We’ll take a hundred of these denim jackets, and skirt ..."

With a clear goal in mind, the visitors who arrived empty-handed were soon carrying large and small packages.

It was still daylight when they arrived, but by the time they came out it was already dark.

"It’s you guys again, boss. How many vehicles do we need this time?"

The trishaw drivers all remembered them and smiled with an honest warmth.

"Master, we need five."

"Got it." It only took a little while for the trishaw driver to return with four trishaws.

Train Station

Su Chenghe hurried to the train station worker and handed over a banknote, "Comrade, you see we have so much stuff, big bags and little bags, can you see..."

The comrade fondled the banknote in his pocket and smiled brilliantly, "Comrade, I see you always come here for wholesale, it’s not easy. I’ll go ask my colleague about consigning it on the train for you."

...

"Elder brother, elder sister-in-law."

Su Chenghe, drenched in sweat, ran back, "I’ve found out, to send all these packages in one go will cost almost a hundred. But don’t worry, the transfers can be arranged without us stressing over it. Just pick it up at Provincial City with the reference letter."

"Good, let’s consign it, saves a lot of trouble." Susu made the decision with a direct hit.

Quietly, Su Nian tugged at his elder sister’s arm and whispered, "Sister, let’s forget it, with so many of us we can carry it back ourselves, don’t waste that money unnecessarily."

"It’s fine, sister can afford tens of yuan, it’ll save us a lot of worry."

The four followed Su Chenghe inside, sorted through the large and small packages, and got the reference letter before coming out again.

Without about a dozen large packages, they all felt much lighter.

After filling themselves up at a small restaurant, the five casually strolled around the train station vicinity.

It was still early, and around the station there were numerous vendors with baskets.

There were those selling trinkets, snacks, and many with local fruits, dazzling these northerners.

"Durian?"

Susu, with sharp eyes, noticed the yellow spiky fruit in a vendor’s basket; it was indeed her first time seeing a durian in her life.

"Comrades, come try some durian, it’s a fruit unique to our region."

Just as Su Nian squatted down, she was hit by an overpowering stench, couldn’t help but cover her mouth, and started retching, "Eugh~ Comrade, eugh~ this thing... eugh~ has it gone bad and you’re still selling it, isn’t that... eugh~ cheating people?"

The three men were repulsed by the stench too, feeling like it was piercing straight through to their brain.

Susu found their reactions so funny she was in tears, holding her tummy and laughing uncontrollably.

"Comrade, it really isn’t spoiled. This is called durian. It smells bad, but tastes delicious when eaten."

"Sister, let’s get out of here quickly, who would fall for this trick?"

"Exactly, elder sister-in-law, who would eat such a thing? It’s no different from eating crap."

"Hahaha..." Susu was dying from laughter, her stomach starting to ache.

The vendor scratched his head, how should he explain so these visitors from out of town would believe him?

"Boss, how much for the durians?"

"Comrade, four yuan each."

"Boss, how about ten yuan for three? I’ll take three then?"

"Sister."

"Elder sister-in-law."

Seeing the seemingly foolish look in their eyes, Susu had the vendor break a durian in half to give to them.

"Try it, it’s really good,"

Watching Susu eating and enjoying it, their faces were a picture of grotesque grimaces mixed with undeniable curiosity.

Luckily, this repay-karma durian split into five sections, half for each person.

Lu Xiaoting held his breath and took a tiny bite, "Hm? It’s soft and actually quite delicious."

Su Nian retched while biting down and closing her eyes but was surprised it wasn’t as disgusting as she imagined.

"Hmm? It’s actually not bad?"

Susu turned her head and met the two men’s expressions, which seemed to have accepted their fate, and she stuffed a big mouthful into her face. Her expression was lively and hilarious.

"Ha ha ha..."

Susu slapped her thigh and turned her head, accidentally catching sight of a familiar face.

Wasn’t that the thief who had attempted to steal at the hostel and got caught by their group, the one she had sat on right on the ground?

At that moment, the thief was circling a man holding a briefcase, wearing a suit, with hair meticulously styled with mousse.

The man was busy selecting items from a street vendor, completely oblivious to any danger.

Under the thief’s fierce warning, the street vendor kept his head down, daring not to make a move.

Susu saw the thief reaching for the man’s briefcase, apparently wielding a blade in hand.

Without time to think, Susu hurled the durian shell at the man’s head.

She yelled out, "There’s a thief, he’s stealing your money~"

The thief, struck and in pain, fell to the ground with a blood-red mark from where the durian rind hit his head.

The man holding the briefcase came to his senses and ran away clutching it.

The thief’s accomplices, who had been lurking nearby, immediately charged towards the man with the briefcase.

"Run fast, it’s a robbery!"

"Run, someone’s going to get killed!"

"There’s someone with a knife, attacking people~"

...

In an instant, the area outside the train station descended into chaos, street vendors packing their baskets and fleeing, fearing being too late and getting slashed to death.

Before long, outside the messy train station, only the bewildered group of thieves remained.

"Who yelled ’murder’?"

"Who’s attacking people with a knife?"

...

Inside the train station

A crowd of clueless passengers, hearing the commotion outside, scrambled frantically into the station.

Lu Xiaoting and Zhang Guoming vigilantly guarded the sisters, while Su Chenghe was panting heavily, leaning on his leg and feeling the aftereffects of the scare.

"Elder sister-in-law, why is it so chaotic here? And there’s someone with a knife?"

Susu, "How do you know about it? Did you see it?"

"Wasn’t it you who yelled, elder sister-in-law?"

Susu, "..."

"Hey, I just blurted it out."

"Huh?"

Seeing everyone staring at her, Susu finally recounted what had just happened.

"I was just worried that the thief might recognize us and remember how they were set back because of us last time. They might seek revenge, so... I stirred the waters."

Lu Xiaoting, helpless and with a slight frown, "Next time something like this happens, tell me. You, a little woman, will definitely be at a disadvantage."

"I got it~ It was an emergency, after all."

After that incident, they didn’t dare to wander around and decided to simply wait at the station overnight, directly taking the train the next day.

The group toughed it out through the night at the train station, stubbornly waiting for the train.

The platform inside the train station was bustling with people, every door and window crammed.

After getting on the train, they could finally relax.

Having stayed up the night before, they were both sleepy and tired, so everyone climbed onto their own bunks to sleep after boarding the train.

As the train clattered slowly along, they gradually fell into a deep sleep.

They slept straight through until the evening.
