Chapter 381: Chapter 380: Han Yi brings teammates over
Lin Yinghui smiled and nodded, "Yes."
"You’ve delivered wine to our house a few times, I’ve seen you twice, but you haven’t seen me."
"Mr. Wei, you are?"
"From the pottery workshop."
Lin Yinghui really didn’t have much impression of him, but when Wei Jian Country mentioned the place, he understood, "So that place is your family’s."
"That’s right, our family only knows this craft, so we started a workshop. I’m here today to see my sister-in-law and help you move some goods," Wei Jian Country said with a hearty laugh.
"Brother Wei, thank you so much."
"It’s only right. I plan to give some benefits to my workers. Now that the weather is cold, we were originally going to purchase a batch of gloves and hats. Buying from anyone is buying, might as well support our own people."
"Brother Wei, you’re absolutely right," Lin Wan smiled.
"Sister-in-law, prepare thirty sets of men’s hats and gloves for me. I’ll come to pick them up tomorrow."
"Brother Wei, there’s no need for the trouble. I know the place, and I’ll deliver them to you tomorrow morning," Lin Yinghui quickly added. They’re all friends, and since he came to bring business, he couldn’t let him make another trip.
"Um... alright then, we’ll wait for you at the factory tomorrow," Wei Jian Country agreed with a smile after a brief moment of indecision.
After sending Wei Jian Country off, Lin Yinghui took Lin Wan back home.
At home, they helped their little sister prepare thirty sets of men’s colored hats and gloves. Lin Wan roughly calculated the inventory; there were still over a hundred fur hats left, half of the gloves, and as for the scarves, the current stock would sell out the same day it arrived.
There are still a thousand pieces left. It’s not a worry; if they don’t sell this year, they can still sell next year without going out of style.
"Bro, when you deliver the goods to Brother Wei tomorrow, the price at twenty yuan per set will be fine. Since they’re Han Yi’s classmates, let’s give them a lower price."
"Sure, their workshop has consumed quite a bit of our family’s wine this year."
"Bro, did Sister Mu Qing like the scarf you gave her?"
"She loved it, and even told me to make sure you rest well."
"Did you mention to her when she’ll come over for a meal at our place?"
Lin Yinghui smiled and said, "Tomorrow, maybe."
Lin Wan’s smile turned to concern at her brother’s words, "Tomorrow? Does Mom know?"
"Not... not yet. I’ll tell her when I come back tonight. Qingqing will only arrive tomorrow afternoon."
Lin Yinghui said it so casually that it couldn’t help but make Lin Wan worry for him. She didn’t know what reaction Mom would have when she found out.
While Lin Wan and her brother were talking about Liang Hongmei at home, Liang Hongmei was seeing Han Yi.
"Xiao Yi? Why didn’t you come home when you returned?"
"Mom, I’m back for business today and don’t have time to go home. I’m taking my comrads for a bite to eat, and then we have to leave," he said. It’s not that he didn’t want to return home; he simply didn’t have the time. He came to the city for business, thought of grabbing a bite nearby, and had to head out of town afterward. It just so happened that the place they were handling business was near his family’s store, so he brought a few friends over.
Only then did Liang Hongmei see the few people behind Han Yi in green military uniforms. She quickly smiled and greeted, "Hello, comrades from the liberation army."
"Hello, comrades," they replied.
Liang Hongmei nodded at them and then said to Han Yi, "Xiao Yi, there’s no one in the private room on the first floor. You take your comrades there first. I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare for you."
"Thanks, Mom," Han Yi said, then led a few people into the first-floor private room.
"Han Yi, your mother-in-law’s family must be rich, opening such a big store near the government courtyard."
"You’ve really hit the jackpot, marrying a treasure trove," someone remarked with a smile. In the military district, everyone knew that Captain Han almost pampered his wife to the skies.
