“Not bad! I didn’t expect Lian City to have such good quality canned food!” Li Xin said excitedly.

After Li Xin and Liu Guang had a discussion, they put in a big order of canned food from Tan Shi. The canned pork was cheapest at two dollars per can, the canned beef was four dollars per can and the canned fish was more expensive at six dollars per can.

After all, the fish had to be transported from the sea to the factory. The weather was hot now and they needed to factor in the fact that part of the raw stock would be lost due to spoilage.

In the end, the two men decided to order 100,000 cans of pork, 200,000 cans of beef and 200,000 cans of fish. Tan Shi immediately thought about the difficulties he might face,

However, he got over it quickly. At most, he would buy more ice to put inside the delivery truck, as well as buy more fish to have sbackup stock. No matter how he looked at it, he would still make a profit in the end.

“We have been running around and don’t have that much money with us, so we can only give you a deposit of 50,000 dollars. But don’t worry, as long as you produce the goods on time, we will also pay you on time. There won’t be any issues!” Li Xin said firmly.

“Sure! Bosses, I trust you!” Tan Shi said.

“Brother Tan, you agree so readily. Aren’t you worried that we’re scammers?” Liu Guang asked with a smile.

Tan Shi shook his head and said, “Business is all about integrity and trust. However, letmake it clear first. If you don’t cto pick up the goods on time, the deposit won’t be refunded!”

“No problem!” Li Xin said.

Li Xin and Liu Guang returned to their hometown, River City, to make arrangements for the next step of the plan. Tan Shi had already informed Huang Quan about this matter. After all, it was a big business worth millions of dollars and the raw materials would cost a lot of money. He needed Huang Quan to cup with the money.

Huang Quan specially arranged for people to investigate the backgrounds of Li Xin and Liu Guang carefully. The Xia family had already made the necessary arrangements and Huang Quan could not find any loopholes at all.

The total cost of the pork and beef was about 400,000 dollars. The cost of the raw materials to make ham sausages was only 200,000 dollars, but the cost of ocean fish was 600,000 dollars. Most of that money would go to transportation and refrigeration costs.

Huang Quan had to cup with a total amount of 1.2 million dollars. Even though the Huang family’s business in Lian City was doing well, it was still impossible for them to fork out 1.2 million dollars at once. They had to pool together the savings of all the relatives of the Huang family. It was make-or-break tfor them.

When it was almost tto start production, Tan Shi made a call to Li Xin and Liu Guang and asked them to cto the factory in Lian City to take a look. On one hand, he wanted to reassure the two men. On the other hand, Tan Shi was also worried about the distance between them. What if the two men really backed out of the deal?

The two men returned to Lian City again but this time, it was different from the previous time. Every day, the two men would receive remittance receipts from the post office. The amounts stated in the forms were not too big, only about 10,000 to 20,000 dollars each time, but the remittance frequency was very consistent.

“l won’t go and withdraw all the money now. This is an unfamiliar place to me. What if 1 get robbed after withdrawing the money? I’ll give the full sum to you when the goods are delivered!” Li Xin said as he held out a thick stack of remittance receipts.

Tan Shi checked the remittance receipts and confirmed that they were all real. He felt as if he was living in a dream every day nowadays. He felt very happy every the thought about how he would earn millions within one month! Although he only received 20% of the money, 20% of the total still worked out to more than 200,000 dollars!

As the days passed, production was almost completed. The initial plan was to have it completed in 30 days, but unexpectedly, Tan Shi was done in less than 20 days.

He had rented many large trucks, almost all the trucks in the city, and gathered them at the factory. There were more than 20 trucks parked by the roadside and it looked very imposing. It took the staff at the factory one day and one night to load everything onto the trucks.

Just before leaving, Li Xin suddenly said to Tan Shi, “Brother Tan, I’m afraid I can’t give you the money yet.”

“What do you mean?” Tan Shi asked in shock. Even all the people standing beside him were shocked.

“It’s not what you think. There’s so much goods here and the convoy is really too eye-catching. If we get robbed on the road, then our efforts will all be in vain. Therefore, we need you to ensure that the goods reach our company premises. Once it’s done, I will give you the money immediately!” Li Xin said. There was no highway during this era. Sometimes, the big delivery trucks would need to travel through the mountains and the drivers would often encounter robbers when they stopped for a rest at night. This was early days after the economy opened up and such situations were still very common..
