Chapter 161: Chapter 155 The Big Shot
"Indeed, very useful."
Lu Aiguo rode his bike while testing it and in just a short while, he successfully propped up a thin protective shield. Suddenly, the cold wind couldn’t touch his body anymore.
He quickly arrived at the house in Jingtou Village to pick up Xie Jiang, Lu Aijiao, and Zhang Ming. After locking up the front gate, Lu Yun, as usual, left a spiritual power mark on the door.
When they arrived, the three of them had already finished breakfast and packed up the bedding they used last night. As for the other New Year’s goods and luggage, they had finished work half a day early yesterday and had already transported and securely strapped everything in the parking warehouse.
Considering that there would be many people at the old home and the distances between Yushu Village, Xie’s village, the factory, and the township were far, keeping two tricycles in Haicheng would suffice.
If that wasn’t enough, buying more would be easy. Therefore, after discussing with Shitou and Xia Yuan, Lu Aiguo planned to bring back two more tricycles.
Fearing that their belongings might be stolen in the middle of the night, Wu Tan and Lin Weisheng had slept right on the truck the night before. Lu Aiguo and Shitou specially placed a thick double-layered large tent in the truck bed, along with a moisture-proof mat and an air mattress and bedding. The outside cold wind couldn’t get in at all.
Lu Aijiao naturally got on the tricycle with Xia Yuan and Lu Yun.
Xie Jiang and Zhang Ming went to the tricycle with Shitou, which also had a small tent and inflatable cushions in the back bed. At first, Xie Jiang saw Shitou was cycling and offered to replace him. Shitou shook his head and said, "No need."
Lu Aiguo also spoke up, "Brother-in-law, he has enough yang energy, let him ride, it’s okay."
Since both said so, Xie Jiang didn’t insist anymore.
Even though the weather was cold, everyone had a comfortable ride back to Yushu Village on the truck.
There were nine people in total, and the truck had two rows of seats. The front two rows could seat five people. Xia Yuan, Lu Aijiao, and Lu Yun naturally wanted to sit in the front row. Lu Aiguo and Shitou took turns driving, so they also sat in front.
The remaining four people stayed in the tent in the back of the truck.
Wu Tan and Lin Weisheng had barely slept the night before, deeply afraid someone might sneak in while they slept soundly and they wouldn’t notice, which is why they were up all night. It’s no wonder they were restless. Anyone who saw the New Year’s goods that Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan had purchased and the amount of money given to them would have trouble sleeping just like them.
So the two, severely sleep-deprived, were unwilling to move. After eating the breakfast Xia Yuan brought for them, they immediately pulled up the covers and fell into a deep sleep for the rest of the journey.
Xie Jiang and Zhang Ming were bored sitting there and didn’t want to disturb the sleepers by talking, so they simply got together and played some checkers.
Before eleven in the morning, the truck finally reached its destination. The group first went to inspect the factory. The walls had already been built, and the first completed part was a row of two-story dormitories. The foundation for the factory and office area had just been laid.
This progress was not slow. However, it seemed that even if work was expedited during the New Year period, the construction wouldn’t finish that quickly.
Lu Aiguo thus found the construction team’s foreman. After discussing, they decided it would be better to temporarily stop the construction of the factory. Everyone could enjoy the New Year, and after the fifteen, they would come back and continue.
On the other side, Lu Aimei examined Lu Aijiao and Xia Yuan closely.
"Sister, Xia Yuan, could it be that the water and soil in Haicheng are especially nourishing? Look at you both, how come your skin seems to be getting better and better?"
She still remembered that Xia Yuan’s skin indeed used to be much better than hers, but her own sister’s skin seemed to be about the same as hers. How could there be such a big difference in less than half a year? She couldn’t help but reach out and pinch Lu Aijiao’s cheek, feeling the smooth and slippery skin.
"What are you doing touching me like that?" Lu Aijiao slapped away her hand with annoyance, then remembered how in recent days Xie Jiang also loved touching her skin, saying it feels more comfortable than before. Now that her sister was saying the same, she suddenly felt pleased and couldn’t help but glance at Xia Yuan.
Lu Aimei, who had been paying attention to Lu Aijiao, followed her gaze toward Xia Yuan. Could the reason be something to do with Xia Yuan? Lu Aimei couldn’t help feeling relieved that she hadn’t offended Xia Yuan back then.
"We’ve been using this lately, why don’t you give it a try?" Xia Yuan took out five jars of moisturizing cream, packed in ordinary small glass bottles, and handed them to Lu Aimei.
After learning from Lu Yun that the cream she initially offered was in real crystal jars, and since Lu Aijiao and the others arrived, she didn’t want to use something too conspicuous. So, she asked Lu Yun for more of the same cream but in ordinary glass bottles to give to Lu Aijiao as well.
If there was a need, Lu Yun naturally wanted to satisfy it, as it wasn’t difficult to make more of the skin cream.
Space was aplenty with ordinary, unlabeled glass bottles for skincare products, so she took some time to produce over a thousand more bottles. After her mother got the small storage, she directly gave her twenty bottles, also thinking that it would be perfect to give as gifts when she went back to her hometown for the New Year.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to give more, but her mother’s storage couldn’t preserve the products as supernaturally as her own space; the effects might diminish over time. Anyway, she could always give more to her mother whenever needed. She had even specifically told her mother that she could supply the cream in unlimited quantities.
Since her daughter had said there was plenty of it, Xia Yuan was generous in her offering and spoke with full confidence, "Rest assured and use it; apart from hands and face, it can be applied all over the body, and you will see results after using it for a month. When you’re running low, just let me know, and I’ll get you more."
"Yes."
Even though they were just ordinary glass bottles, these were the high-end goods Lu Yun used to gather wealth in her previous life, and the bottles were specially custom-made. How could they be inferior? With Xia Yuan saying so, Lu Aimei was moved.
"No need to wait a month; you’ll know it’s good stuff after half a month." Lu Aijiao’s bag also contained five bottles of moisturizing cream just given to her by Xia Yuan the day before. She was thinking if Xia Yuan didn’t give any to Aimei, she would secretly give her one, simply saying it was bought at a major department store in Haicheng.
"Big Sister, Second Sister, Sister-in-law, meals are ready, come and eat quickly." While the three were talking, Zhang Cai came over, calling everyone to dine with a sweet smile on her face, wearing an apron.
"Zhang Cai, take this," Xia Yuan naturally wouldn’t play favorites and gave Zhang Cai five jars of moisturizing cream, instructing her in the same way she did Lu Aimei. Holding the delicately exquisite glass jar in her hands, Zhang Cai was overjoyed at the sight of the skin of Xia Yuan and Lu Aijiao; she thanked them repeatedly and treasured it like a precious gift.
That afternoon, after sending off the construction crew, the group tidied up, locked the main gate, and arranged for Lu Aibing, Xie Jiang, Xie Changgen, Xie Wutan, Lin Weisheng, and Zhang Ming to take turns watching the factory each day starting tomorrow, with a handover at noon due to the distance.
That evening, Xie Changgen volunteered to stay first, so the others split up onto three tricycles, loaded with New Year goods and luggage, heading to Yushu Village.
Almost overnight, Lu Aiguo became quite the sensation in Yushu Village.
