Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Don’t Fall in Love with Her

Qiao Qingyu’s goods had just arrived at West River Station when a group of resellers surrounded her, something she hadn’t anticipated, but she couldn’t possibly sell all the goods right then and there, as some items were scarce in both Yushu County and the base.

She sold only a portion, but with that, she managed to cover the transportation costs.

One-third of what was left was given to Lu Ye.

Two-thirds were taken by Old Xie to the cooperative established at the base.

It’s no exaggeration to say that within a week, these goods were completely divvied up.

From this, Qiao Qingyu made eight thousand yuan.

After that, she didn’t need to travel to Nangang City herself anymore, leaving the phone numbers of the two main buyers. With one phone call, the goods would be sent over.

This was also thanks to the face of Sui Jun, as he was considered one of the most promising young men in the area and a prime target for these merchants to curry favor with.

The second time Qiao Qingyu made seven thousand yuan.

Then Qiao Qingyu decided to call it quits.

During this period, Qiao Qingyu’s hybrid honey pumpkins, after being cultivated in the laboratory, weighed in at three thousand five hundred kilograms.

So, it was clear that the seed quality was excellent.

Now planted, they would be harvested by the end of September.

By then, the temperature in Xichuan would be in the teens Celsius.

Because they were specially cultivated, they would mature a week earlier and the yield per pumpkin had increased from four kilograms to about five and a half kilograms.

Now, the vegetables Qiao Qingyu was planting were mainly for winter provision.

A total of five thousand kilograms of pumpkin seeds were sold, two thousand kilograms of which went to Mr. Qian at Xiaxi Commune and were quickly divided up among the teams below, some of which were so frustrated at getting nothing that they yelled at Mr. Qian.

The remaining three thousand kilograms were sold to the base.

From the hybrid honey pumpkin seeds, Qiao Qingyu made a total of one thousand yuan.

She also planted quite a bit in the empty spaces in front and behind her house, and then gave some to Sister-in-law Li and Lin Cujuan.

As for the vegetable seeds, they were temporarily placed on the shelves in the warehouse.

Although the warehouse was basic, it was well designed, and currently suitable for storage.

If there was heavy rain, Qiao Qingyu would move the seeds to the laboratory.

Not too much, only about eight hundred kilograms.

It wasn’t too strenuous to handle.

By now, Qiao Qingyu had fifty-eight thousand yuan in movable funds.

Her smooth progress was largely thanks to He Xiuyu.

She had brought back two cool shirts, two pairs of leather shoes, and several pairs of socks for He Xiuyu from Nangang City.

She even bought him a briefcase.

She added a recorder at home and bought a lot of tapes.

Not to mention He Xuerong, whom Qiao Qingyu dressed up like a little princess.

Among the tapes Qiao Qingyu bought were children’s songs. Rongrong, having a talent for music, could sing them after listening just a few times, even more melodiously than the original singers.

However, she preferred running wild in the fields with Xiao Hu and others, especially in the Barley Grassland, where they could also pick mushrooms.

Qiao Qingyu also bought a pair of sandals for each of Xiao Hu, Dashun, Daji, and Wei Xiao.

After all, the sandals from Nangang City were beautiful and fashionable.

Because of Qiao Qingyu, the attire and belongings of the people at Yushu County, Tenghai Research Base, and Xiaxi Commune had all changed.

People are like that, for example, once they get used to using soap, asking them to go back to using lye to wash their hands becomes unbearable.

And no tickets were needed, all the goods were priced through bargaining.

So, there was no chance of Qiao Qingyu’s wholesale goods getting backlogged.

Sister-in-law Li resigned from her workshop job, after all, she still had a son and a sister-in-law to take care of.

Their work required shift rotations, she couldn’t always work the day shift, especially since her husband was in such a sensitive phase, she went to the workshop mainly to check on Li Zhiqiang’s condition. She also wanted to tell him that she believed in him, and to work well and show good behavior, as half a year would pass quickly, and she, Xiao Hu, and his sister were waiting for him to come home.

Li Zhiqiang was deeply touched, and his work performance increased significantly.

Then Sister-in-law Li felt relieved, after resigning from the workshop, she went to the newly established logistics greening construction farm at the base.

There were no night shifts there, and the salary was as high as in the workshop.

The greening construction farm employed over five hundred people, who were regular employees receiving monthly salaries.

After the hybrid honey pumpkins sprouted, Old Xie and Qiao Qingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, this was a Southern variety, although suitable for sandy soil cultivation, experiments had never been done in the Northwest.

Qiao Qingyu sent a detailed account of the pumpkin cultivation and sprouting conditions to Old Zhou at the Nangang City Seed Breeding Base.

This was also providing him with firsthand information.

Of course, no one knew that these had been further modified in Qiao Qingyu’s special laboratory.

However, everyone knew that Qiao Qingyu could contact seed stations from all over, Nangang City, Mobei Prairie, North City Seed Station. Unnoticed, she had built such an extensive network of contacts.

Whether it was seeds unloaded from the train station, transported by long-haul trucks, or even mailed, in everyone’s eyes, Qiao Qingyu had already become a major seed producer.

This was the ultimate result Qiao Qingyu desired.

But it also owed much to the prestigious name of Tenghai Research Base.

When Qiao Qingyu was about to go out, she received a call from Station Chief Monk of the Mobei Prairie.

His voice was loud, he told Qiao Qingyu that the barren plain which once had not a single blade of grass was now filled with golden lotus flowers.

To thank her, Ge’erleng Banner had collected all the seeds of barley grass from that prairie and sent her five thousand kilograms.

It was transported by rail, and in fear of moisture damage during the rainy season, they had requested expedited shipping.

So, it was estimated to arrive in a day or two, and she was told to wait for a call from the station.

What could Qiao Qingyu say but express her full gratitude.

Today, besides the initial leaks with corn, cabbage, and thousand silk hemp, the subsequent cultivated seeds progressed smoothly, especially since the initial seeds were backed up by He Xiuyu.

Riding her bicycle cheerfully, Qiao Qingyu went to the Big White Building at the base.

Meanwhile, Su Yunyao, who had been with He Xiuyu since the base workshop, was stopped outside his office door.

He Xiuyu’s expression was sharp with a hint of annoyance.

He hadn’t anticipated that after that incident, Su Yunyao would change completely.

"Comrade Su Yunyao, please go back to the workshop immediately, or you won’t need to be responsible for this project anymore!"

Su Yunyao got anxious, "Chief Engineer He, can’t you just listen to one thing I have to say?"

He Xiuyu slowly exhaled, suppressing his impatience, "Alright, speak!"

"Qiao Qingyu is a problem, you need to be wary of her, don’t fall for her, and certainly don’t love her, or you will suffer regret for a lifetime!"

He Xiuyu looked coldly at Su Yunyao, so cold that he couldn’t even bother to warn or argue with her.

He Xiuyu opened the office door, and as Su Yunyao tried to follow him in, he slammed it shut in her face.

Before the door closed, He Xiuyu’s gaze was extremely cold.
