Chapter 83: Chapter 83 Cash and Goods Complete

"Stop dawdling and get to work!" Sun Hongmei stood among the crowd, full of confidence, waving grandly at the villagers, and led them away.

Before leaving, she threw a coquettish glance at Chen Dashan, opened her mouth slightly, and the shape of her lips roughly said:

"Waiting for you tonight!"

Chen Dashan pretended not to understand, this woman was fierce like a tigress, she could ride the ground and suck up the dirt just sitting there, a tough one to handle!

Zheng Lin’en returned to the clinic, while Chen Dashan took Zhang Xuewen to the orchard to find Zhao Jiayao.

The midday sun was scorching.

The ground felt like a massive steamer, heat waves rising continuously, the sun blazing overhead. Chen Dashan was soon drenched in sweat. The orchard was bustling with people, dozens of villagers under Sun Hongmei’s command, began picking fruit.

Then, some younger men weighted them and carried them onto a small truck.

The heat waves from the sun were like ripples, making one dizzy and blurry-eyed.

"Over here, over here!"

A cheerful female voice sounded out, Chen Dashan looked up to see Zhao Jiayao standing on high ground, one hand on a ladder, directing the workers in picking fruits. Today, Zhao Jiayao was wearing a light yellow dress with a fitted design, her body’s curves graceful, the skirt with its light gauze giving off a fairy-like aura from above.

In the sunlight, her pretty face was red like a honey peach, with beads of sweat glistening on it, hair sticking to her forehead, while turning around, the majesty of her chest was clearly visible, and her damp clothes clung to her back, revealing the contours of her body through the fabric.

"This fruit is big, this one is red, what’s wrong with your eyes!"

Zhao Jiayao stomped her feet in frustration as she directed seriously.

"Boss Zhao!" Chen Dashan called out.

Upon hearing Chen Dashan’s voice, Zhao Jiayao turned her head, her red face instantly bloomed with a smile, sizing up Chen Dashan mysteriously:

"Guess what I brought for you today?"

After speaking, Zhao Jiayao descended the ladder, a breeze blew and her lightweight skirt fluttered, exposing two long, snowy white legs, and even a glimpse of her white underwear could be seen for a brief moment.

"Clap clap!"

Zhao Jiayao dusted off her hands, squinting her eyes, she said, "I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, won’t keep you guessing anymore, I’m here today to bring you money!"

Bring money?

Chen Dashan’s gaze flashed, it must be to settle the accounts for the fruit sales.

Zhao Jiayao glanced at Zhang Xuewen, who was next to Chen Dashan, and continued, "You have no idea how great the sales of our fruit have been. Many people from Furong County come to our shop to buy fruits. I was thinking, why not do this!"

Zhao Jiayao wore a cunning expression.

Chen Dashan guessed, "You’re thinking of opening another fruit shop in Furong County?"

"Right!"

Zhao Jiayao excitedly stretched out her hand, slapping Chen Dashan’s chest forcefully, feeling the solid and wild sensation beneath her hand. Zhao Jiayao’s eyes flashed as she continued with a smile:

"Chen Dashan, you really get me!"

"The consumption level in the county is definitely higher than in the town—our fruits are priced higher, and no matter how good they are, we need a customer base that can afford them!"

"I’ve noticed that there are more customers in the county, and they spend generously. With a large flow of people, if we join forces, we can ensure a wide stream of revenue!"

Zhao Jiayao was visibly excited, continuing to address Chen Dashan, "By then, if we open ten, maybe eight franchise stores in the county, wouldn’t we be lying down and collecting money every day? What do you say?"

Chen Dashan laughed, the pie in the sky sounded good, almost too much to take in.

However, Zhao Jiayao’s suggestion wasn’t bad. Furong County’s spending power was definitely higher than Longshan Town’s, and the sales in the town were limited. Once the fruit trees were fully cultivated, there might be more supply than demand.

Thinking of this, Chen Dashan walked with the two towards the office.

As they walked, he spoke, "Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I was considering it myself."

Upon hearing Chen Dashan’s words, Zhao Jiayao’s face beamed with delight as she flattered, "Well, if it isn’t Boss Chen, such insight!"

Seeing her smile so sweetly, Chen Dashan was speechless. He turned to look at Zhang Xuewen behind him and introduced her to Zhao Jiayao:

"This is an employee of our orchard and also a student from the Agricultural University. In the future, for anything regarding the orchard, you’ll be coordinating with her. And hey, you’ve been in the fruit business for ten years now; you should definitely take the time to teach her well."

"She’s going to be the one managing the whole orchard from now on!"

"Me? I ..."

Zhang Xuewen’s cheeks flushed red, and she looked at Chen Dashan with bright eyes, hesitating to speak.

She never expected Chen Dashan to trust her so much. She had come to understand the value of the orchard over the past few days; it was indeed a business with unlimited prospects, the only one in the country capable of cultivating premium quality fruit.

To think that Chen Dashan would entrust such a money-making venture to her management?

Zhang Xuewen was touched and wanted to refuse, but the words wouldn’t come out; she was afraid to disappoint Chen Dashan.

"No problem, but you have to agree to one thing for me!"

Zhao Jiayao glanced at Zhang Xuewen, her eyes filled with mystery.

Her gaze settled on Chen Dashan like a hungry wolf that hadn’t eaten for days.

Chen Dashan was startled and quickly moved a meter away from Zhao Jiayao, laughing as he asked:

"What condition?"

"It’s not difficult for you!"

After Zhao Jiayao spoke, she held her waist and frowned, saying, "I think I sprained my back just now, could you give me a massage today?"

Chen Dashan immediately tensed up. The memory of the last massage in the infirmary was still fresh. She had nearly devoured him, and judging by her eager look, another massage today would certainly put him in jeopardy.

Besides, he had important matters to attend to that evening.

Thinking this, Chen Dashan promptly refused: "I’m afraid that’s not possible today!"

Not possible?

Zhao Jiayao’s face showed sheer disappointment. She followed Chen Dashan into the orchard office and then remained silent. She really missed the feeling of Chen Dashan’s massage; she had been separated from her husband for many years and had been single all this time. That sensation was addictive.

But it seemed that Chen Dashan was not so willing.

Zhao Jiayao looked up at Zhang Xuewen, who was youthful and beautiful, still a university student, and couldn’t help but sigh internally.

"I have an important matter tonight, so here’s what we’ll do: your back injury doesn’t seem too serious. In a couple of days, when I go to the county to discuss business, I’ll give you a massage then," offered Chen Dashan as he casually poured two glasses of water.

He handed one to Zhao Jiayao and downed the other in one gulp.

Zhao Jiayao, looking at Chen Dashan’s large hand, felt her disappointment wash away and smiled, "Really?"

"Then that’s a promise. Next time you come to the county, we can... you can treat me!"

Chen Dashan was simply a treasure trove, not only capable of cultivating fruits that weren’t available on the market but also skilled in massage. More importantly, Boss Chen had a sharp business acumen and working with him felt effortless.

Following Chen Dashan, Zhao Jiayao felt it might be the best decision she had ever made in her life.

When the small truck was fully loaded, it was time for Zhao Jiayao to leave.

Chen Dashan escorted her to the entrance of the village, where Zhao Jiayao took out a black briefcase from the car and, in front of everyone, began to withdraw stacks of red bills.

A dazzling red display.

The villagers, who were just exhausted from work, were now so excited that their hearts raced, their breaths quickening as they saw so much money.

Zhao Jiayao handed it over to Chen Dashan with a smile, saying, "This is the payment for the fruits over this period. I’ve made three trips here, and you’ve delivered once, totalling to 346,500 yuan."
