Early the next morning, Li Gui brought the two children with her to deliver the 90 pounds of popcorn to Zhao Fei. As there was insufficient space on the vehicles to fit all the popcorn, she packed the excess in a sack and fixed it to a board at the back of one of the vehicles. She must find a way to transport everything. All these bags of popcorn equated to money!

Zhao Fei was again waiting there with his two younger brothers. Li Gui quickly rode in front of Zhao Fei and said happily, “Look! There’s 90 pounds today! Do you think you can sell everything? If you can’t sell them all, you can bring them back to me. It’s alright to have some left.”

“90 pounds! That’s a lot! Auntie, you must have worked all day yesterday! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be able to sell everything! Even if you give me 200 pounds, I’ll still be able to sell everything! Just wait to collect the money tonight!” Zhao Fei said with a smile.

“No problem. Then go quickly. Don’t get delayed!” Li Gui waved goodbye to Zhao Fei.

In the past two days, Zhao Fei and his band of brothers had been selling their goods at the entrances of shopping malls, entertainment venues and alleys near schools. This attracted the attention of many other peddlers and many people who did not know about Li Gui’s popcorn went asking around about the source of the popcorn.

Many peddlers who knew Zhao Fei also came to ask him where he got his supply. The smell of the popcorn and the packaging were exactly the same as the popcorn Li Gui sold. Many of the peddlers had tried to work with Li Gui, but she had rejected all of them. No one managed to gain Li Gui’s trust. Could it be that Zhao Fei knew how Li Gui made the popcorn!

“Xiao Fei! Erm, no! Brother Fei! Tell us, did you make this popcorn yourself?” one of the peddlers, Jin Shui, asked obsequiously.

“Why don’t you make a guess?” Zhao Fei said mysteriously.

Jin Shui was almost the same age as Zhao Fei’s father, yet he was willing to address Zhao Fei as brother just to find out more about the popcorn.

“Don’t beat around the bush with me. Just tell me, did you make it yourself?” Jin Shui said.

“What has it got to do with you! Just go back to sell your own popcorn! I can see your customers coming, go back quickly!” Zhao Fei said disdainfully.

Jin Shui’s expression instantly darkened and he said unhappily, “Xiao Fei, are you turning your back on us brothers just because you run a good business and have money now? You can’t be so untrustworthy. If we didn’t help you back then, you wouldn’t have been able to survive in this place!”

Jin Shui’s father had given him this name after consulting an old man who was a fortune teller. The old man did a divination and said that the child lacked the water element in his life. That was why he was named Jin Shui, the word “shui” meant water and was intended to make up for the missing element.

Yet this man turned out to be as toxic as contaminated water!

After Jin Shui calmed down a little, he coughed awkwardly before saying to Zhao Fei, “I don’t mean it that way. We’ve known each other for so many years and you know me. I’m just too forthright, so don’t take what I say to heart. It’s not easy to do business nowadays. Why don’t you give me some stock as a favor to me? I’ll sell it for you if you give me five dollars a day?”

Five dollars? How dare he ask for this amount. Those young men only earned two dollars and fifty cents while running around outdoors, but Jin Shui asked for five dollars the moment he opened his mouth. Zhao Fei wondered if Jin Shui could even earn five dollars at his own stall within two to three days! This fellow was really too much.

“Brother Jin Shui, I know you’re good to me, but I still have to run my own business! Look, there’s so many people queuing up to buy your popcorn. I won’t take up any of your time anymore!” Zhao Fei ran off after saying that.

Currently, there were only two types of popcorn being sold in the market, at 10 cents a pack and 50 cents a pack. As long as the more expensive popcorn continued to exist, peddlers who sold the ordinary popcorn would not have much business.

Jin Shui looked at Zhao Fei’s departing back angrily and shouted, “Kid, just you wait! You can run but you can’t hide! I’ll catch you one day!”

He had to discuss this matter with the other peddlers. They could not let it go just like that and allow Zhao Fei to be the only one who was making money.

The popcorn was quickly sold out again today. Zhao Fei even saw many repeat customers! These were people who had bought from him yesterday and felt that it was delicious so they came back again today..
