Chapter 1359: This Way You're Good, I'm Good, Everyone's Good

But since Heaven had favored her with a cheat, she now wanted to contribute her own strength; thinking that if her eldest uncle could handle the aftermath, it would be better to seek him out.

After all, when her own family returned to Huicheng, Grandpa said the courtyard belonged to them; her eldest uncle didn't utter a single complaint, and even her eldest uncle's wife didn't voice a single grievance; this favor must be repaid.

So she arranged matters at home and told Fu Yan Cheng she was going to the city to handle business.

Early the next morning, she took a bus back to the city, after all, some matters were unsuitable to discuss over the phone.

Xiao Changjiang, upon receiving his niece's call, was somewhat surprised.

Upon seeing Liu Chuxue, he asked: "Did you encounter some difficulty?"

Liu Chuxue glanced outside; seeing no one coming this way, she closed the office door: "Eldest uncle, I have a friend who can procure a large batch of watermelons; I wish to donate them to the disaster area, but just like last time, he does not wish to reveal himself; do you have a way?"

Hearing his niece's words, Xiao Changjiang asked with a face full of confusion: "Donating things without leaving a name, could there be some problem?"

Liu Chuxue quickly waved her hands: "Eldest uncle, the goods are fine, it's just the source is hard to explain; besides, with such a large batch of watermelons appearing, if donated in his personal name, wouldn't that invite trouble?"

Xiao Changjiang finally reacted: "That is true."

He coughed lightly: "These goods are definitely fine, right?"

Liu Chuxue nodded: "Rest assured, I wouldn't harm anyone, let alone harm you, my eldest uncle; let me put it this way, this batch of watermelons was grown in Shenshan, originally meant to enter the black market, but with such a major disaster occurring, they wanted to contribute their own strength; originally they intended to simply dump the goods at the entrance of some public unit, but I thought, rather than benefit others, it would be better to benefit you, my eldest uncle, so I came to ask if you could handle the aftermath?"

Hearing Liu Chuxue speak thus, Xiao Changjiang's heart burned hot.

After a moment of thought, he said: "Eldest uncle won't stand on ceremony with you; currently, every unit is gathering supplies, and our bureau is no exception; previously, the cured fish, chickens, ducks, and eggs you sent helped us greatly."

Speaking thus, he took a warehouse receipt from the drawer: "In a moment, take this to finance to collect the money; consider it our unit purchasing from you."

Just as Liu Chuxue was about to refuse, Xiao Changjiang said: "How could an eldest uncle use your goods to win fame for the unit? The fact that you thought of your eldest uncle and brought the goods here has already helped me greatly."

Before Liu Chuxue could say anything further: "Listen, this way you are good, I am good, and everyone is good."

Liu Chuxue thought it over and nodded: "Then alright."

Seeing her agree, Xiao Changjiang then said: "How many watermelons does your friend have on hand?"

Liu Chuxue had estimated this beforehand: "Roughly around ten thousand jin."

Hearing this quantity, Xiao Changjiang couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath; if there were truly this many, their bureau's task could be half completed; however, watermelons are not like grain and other supplies, and he alone truly could not make this decision: "Wait for me, I will go find someone to discuss it."

Liu Chuxue naturally understood; after all, initial disaster relief supplies focus on filling stomachs; these watermelons are easily damaged and not suitable for storage or transport, and are not life-saving supplies; at present, they are indeed somewhat inappropriate, but aside from fish, her space contained only these watermelons.

In a short while, Xiao Changjiang returned: "We, our bureau, will take those ten thousand jin of watermelons; at four fen per jin, does that work for you?"

Liu Chuxue thought for a moment: "Eldest uncle, these watermelons after all cannot fill stomachs; will sending these goods over cause adverse effects? I just thought of this."

Not expecting his niece to think on such a deep level: "Truly worthy of being my niece; we discussed it; we will sell these ten thousand jin of watermelons to employees at five fen per jin, and use the money obtained to exchange for supplies to send to the disaster area."
