    ?

    Finally, when the day of departure came, Xiang Jiawei and Han Tianjiao were also extremely excited, dreaming about the beauty of tomorrow's life.  Saying goodbye to relatives and friends, Xiang Jiawei and Han Tianjiao set sail.

    Xiang Jiawei sat at the stern and concentrated on driving the paddle boat, firmly grasped the steering handle with his right hand, and carefully touched the accelerator with his left hand. Even though his short hair was blown upright by the wind, he had no time to distract himself from tidying up.  With his own hairstyle, he only focused on looking at the water in front of him, and occasionally carefully let the boats driving on the opposite side look so meticulous.

    Han Tianjiao sat quietly on the bow of the boat and looked out into the wind, staring at the rolling waves on the river and the boats driving left and right.  There is a thick and long bamboo draft beside him, just in case it needs to be propped up.  With the whistling of the boats, the river water on both sides kept rolling with the passing boats, and the boats passing by were also making noises.

    ?It takes two days by boat to get to Suzhou from Han Tianjiao's house by water.  Han Tianjiao and Xiang Jiawei were used to living on land, but they suddenly changed their way of life. They had to eat, drink, drink, and scatter on the boat. They couldn't get used to it for a while.

    After two days of boating, I finally arrived at the second sister in Suzhou.  On that wide river, there are densely packed boats parked on the bank, all of which are used to transport goods to the construction site, among them is the boat of Xiang Jiawei's second sister's family.

    Xiang Jiawei squeezed his cement boat into a small gap next to the second sister's boat, threw the anchor into the river, and took out a thick hemp rope to tie his boat and the second sister's boat together.  , and then boarded the second sister's boat with Han Tianjiao.

    The second sister's boat was much larger than Xiang Jiawei's, and the shed built at the back of the boat was also much larger than Xiang Jiawei's, giving it a more homely look.

    The second sister and the second brother-in-law were preparing dinner on the boat. When they saw Xiang Jiawei and Han Tianjiao coming, they happily asked him to sit down for a while and have dinner together after they were busy.

    Han Tianjiao watched the second sister and second brother-in-law busy together at the back of the boat, so she told Xiang Jiawei to sit down first, then went to the back and picked up a bucket tied with a rope and threw it into the river.  They washed the dishes.

    With the cooperation of three people, the meal will be ready soon.  The second sister asked the second brother-in-law to go to the shore to buy a bottle of white wine and come back, and by the way, buy some cooked food for dinner.

    When the second brother-in-law went ashore to buy vegetables, Xiang Jiawei, who had nothing to do on the boat, followed him.  Han Tianjiao was left on the boat to help the second sister tidy up the dinner table together.

    After the food was served on the table, Xiang Jiawei and his second brother-in-law also came back, and they took out their wine glasses and drank to each other.

    Put the cooked food into bowls, Han Tianjiao and the second sister also sat down to eat together, the four of them huddled together on a small square table and ate.

    The second brother-in-law smiled honestly: "It's a bit crowded! It's not as spacious as at home on the boat, and it's not very convenient. You'll know when you stay for a while."

    "It's okay! It's inevitable to suffer some crimes when you go out, so it's not as free as at home!" Han Tianjiao said with emotion.

    While eating, the second sister said to Xiang Jiawei: "Tomorrow, I will take the two of you around to get familiar with the environment. The day after tomorrow, the goods will be shipped to Wuxi, so you and I will each load a boat of sand and gravel."  When you go to Wuxi, you have to remember the sailing route. After the route is familiar, I will ask your brother-in-law to give you a few more orders, and you have to learn to do it yourself. We can¡¯t stay together all the time.  It will be reduced, if you do it separately, you don¡¯t have to share things, and you will earn more money.¡±

    "Well! I'll listen to you, Second Sister. Do whatever you say! I don't understand, you have to teach me!" Xiang Jiawei drank his wine and nodded in agreement.

    "It must be taught to you, otherwise you will always follow us, and our own business will be affected." The second brother-in-law said truthfully.

    Han Tianjiao became a little embarrassed: "Sister and brother-in-law! Will we cause you trouble? As soon as Xiang Jiawei gets started, we will negotiate business by ourselves, and we won't always hold you back. Don't worry  alright."

    The second sister hurriedly said: "Who made us sisters and brothers! I won't take others with me. If I bring my apprentices to starve to death, I will do less business myself, but it's okay. You are my brother and sister-in-law. You live  Well, I'm also very happy, everyone wants their loved ones to live well, doesn't it?"

    "Yes, relatives will always help relatives, can they help others? So no matter what you do, it is better to have someone to support you, so that things can go smoothly." Han Tianjiao expressed his feelings.

    While eating and chatting, the second sister explained the basic steps of shipping the goods to Xiang Jiawei and Han Tianjiao first, and the rest is to take Xiang Jiawei for two more boat trips, so that Xiang Jiawei can quickly stand on his own  .

    next??For a while, the second sister and second brother-in-law first brought Xiang Jiawei and Han Tianjiao to familiarize themselves with where they were, and then took them directly to the office on the construction site to teach them how to negotiate business and how to negotiate the price of the boat.

    ?With his sister and brother-in-law, Xiang Jiawei understood the process of running the ship a few times, and with the assistance of Han Tianjiao, he soon left the second sister and started working alone.

    During the day, Xiang Jiawei would ride his bicycle to various docks to discuss business, and then come back and sail the boat to the dock after the deal was settled, and wait for the workers to deliver the sand and stones to the boat, and then Xiang Jiawei would deliver the goods on the boat according to the designated time and place.  The goods are delivered, and the bill is settled at the other party and then returned.

    Han Tianjiao will also dock the boat when Xiang Jiawei goes out to discuss business, and go to a nearby small vegetable market to buy some side dishes or daily necessities to bring back to the boat.  Apart from preparing three meals a day on time, Han Tianjiao has his own time.

    If Xiang Jiawei is sailing, Han Tianjiao will sit on the bow to help watch the front and the passing ships; when not sailing, Han Tianjiao will stay on the boat by herself cleaning or knitting sweaters, or alone  In a daze.

    Originally, Han Tianjiao and Xiang Jiawei were not speculative and often quarreled. Now that they are on the boat, Xiang Jiawei is busy all day negotiating business and sailing, let alone Han Tianjiao.

    Han Tianjiao would not look for something to say, and became more and more silent.  Apart from having a meal and saying a few words together, the two communicated with each other when they needed to sail, and there was almost no communication.  As the days went by, the two really lived a life of respecting each other as guests.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
