CHAPTER 202: 202 IN HAND

At noon the next day, Jiang Xinyu called each of the seven to explain the situation.

She originally wanted them to go on their own, but they all said they would wait for a week.

At noon in the cafeteria, she ran into Wang Ailing. "Sister, Kong Demin is getting married on the 20th. Are you going?"

"I’m not going. Are you going?"

"I saw him at the factory gate yesterday, and he specifically told me. It wouldn’t be appropriate not to go."

"Then you be careful. By the way, Chen Guoliang is coming over later. He said the cans are ready, and he can give you two hundred, but how are you going to bring them back?"

"When is Mr. Chen arriving?"

"He should be here soon, I’ll wait for him at the gate after lunch."

"Alright, I’ll go with you and ask about the situation before deciding."

The two finished lunch, returned their lunchboxes, and arranged to meet at the factory gate.

Chen Guoliang was already waiting at the gate. Seeing them come out, he quickly greeted them.

"Mr. Chen, when can we go pick them up?"

"Any time, but call my brother-in-law the day before going, he’ll help get the can lids ready. This way, you can bring them back together."

"Thank you so much, is it okay to go on Thursday night the day after tomorrow? Or do you want to come to my office to call your brother-in-law?"

"Sure, I’ll confirm with him now."

Jiang Xinyu said something to Xiao Liu, and the three of them went to Jiang Xinyu’s office together.

The other party agreed to go pick up the cans on Thursday night, saying the lids would be ready too.

"Mr. Chen, I’ll pick you up after work on Thursday."

"Alright, how are you planning to go?"

"The factory has a car, I’ll borrow it if needed, it’s no problem."

"Great. I’ll be at my workplace waiting for you."

Jiang Xinyu was delighted, no need to worry about using old cans anymore.

After the afternoon work bell rang, she went to find Qian Jun.

"Mr. Qian, can I use the car on Thursday night?"

Qian Jun raised his eyebrows, "Where are you going?"

"To Z County Glass Factory to fetch cans. I made apricot preserves a few days ago, seems successful, so I want to try making other fruit preserves."

"Alright, do you want me to go with you?"

Jiang Xinyu shook her head, "No need, too many people might be hard to manage. I need two hundred cans.

Wang Ailing’s partner is going with me, his brother-in-law works at the glass factory."

"Okay, be careful driving at night."

"Got it, thanks, Mr. Qian."

"If you’re thanking me, give me some good food."

"Sure, I’ll send you some preserves in winter."

The car issue is solved, now just wait for Thursday to pick up the cans.

With this sorted, Jiang Xinyu felt a lot better. With a smile on her face, it was clear she was in a good mood.

At night, she prepared dough for bread, since visiting people can’t be empty-handed.

Steamed two big trays, planning to give Wang Ailing two to eat tomorrow.

During lunch the next day, she handed bread to Wang Ailing.

"Just by smelling the sweet aroma, you know it’s bread."

"Yes, I prepared some, can’t go empty-handed asking for help, giving bread should do well."

"Very impressive."

"I’ll take some with me when I go home too, your sister-in-law is due soon, right?"

"Yeah, my mom says it’s in July."

"That’s really soon, you’re about to be an aunt."

"Isn’t it so?"

"Haha, even faster when you get married and have kids, you’ll feel time flies."

Wang Ailing blushed from Jiang Xinyu’s words, "Silly girl, always saying anything without restraint."

"I’m just speaking the truth, nothing to fear."

After work on Thursday, Jiang Xinyu got the car keys, went home to pack ten big breads into a cloth bag, each individually wrapped with wrapping paper.

Also brought four separately, keeping two in the car to eat. It couldn’t be too late, saving time, dinner would be settled in the car.

Arrived at the police station entrance, saw a group of people gathered, Jiang Xinyu stopped the car, Chen Guoliang came over with a few officers.

"Director Jiang."

"Mr. Chen, let’s set off, the sooner the better."

"Alright, these are some of my colleagues."

Jiang Xinyu smiled and nodded, the young ones also nodded and smiled, the two got in the car and drove away.

"Mr. Chen, there’s bread over there, you eat first, I made it myself, brought ten for your brother-in-law, can’t have him helping for nothing."

Actually, Chen Guoliang smelled the sweet aroma when getting into the car, being straightforward, he didn’t hesitate, the scent was too tempting.

This is really delicious, pure white bread, not easy to come by.

The two took two hours to reach Z County Glass Factory.

Chen Guoliang got out to find his brother-in-law at the guard post. Soon the person came.

Car drove directly into the factory, personnel was present in the warehouse, four people loaded up in ten minutes.

Then followed the brother-in-law to pick up the lids. It cost only twelve bucks altogether, really not expensive.

"Comrade, this is homemade, take it back for the kids to taste."

"No need, comrade, you don’t have to be so polite."

"I’m really not being polite, let’s not refuse, it’s my sincere gesture."

"Brother-in-law, you take it, we should hurry back, otherwise it will be too late."

On the way, Jiang Xinyu asked Chen Guoliang where to drop him off, directly taking him back.

"I’ll help you unload the car too."

"No need, it’s not exhausting, I can unload it myself in half an hour."

Dropped Chen Guoliang off at his workplace, then drove home herself.

It’s already past nine at night, the streets are quiet, Jiang Xinyu opened the door, took out two baskets, filled them, and carried them inside, the rest stored in space.

Now she can freely work without worry. There’s still a lot of sugar in space, but she still needs to visit the supply and marketing agency.

The next day she drove straight to work, the bike was still at the factory.

"Director Jiang, you’re in a good mood?" Song Qingqing teased with a smile.

"Of course, wait till I make chili sauce, I think if spread on bread and corn buns, definitely eat half more."

"Great, at my home we make it too, I’ve been craving it. When you do it, I’ll help, I’ll chop peppers and garlic, I’ve done it before."

"Alright. When the time comes, you help me."

After work, she rode the bike to the supply and marketing agency, had five pounds of sugar coupons, although no white sugar, brown sugar would do, bought them all.

"Director Jiang, why buy so much sugar?"

"Going back home on Saturday, I found cans, call me anytime for fruits, now I can make more preserves."

"Haha. Great, this week we have watermelon. But it can’t be made into preserves, can it?"

"Right, watermelon can’t, when peaches come, save them, give me two hundred pounds, it’s fine."
