With Li Bowen present, the workers were very fast.

Within a few minutes, a trailer of watermelons had been weighed.

Seeing that the trailer was empty, Zhang Ran hurriedly made up the remaining three yuan to Master Chen.

Originally, Zhang Ran wanted to give a few more yuan, but Master Chen didn't ask for it, so Zhang Ran gave him an extra watermelon.

After sending off Master Chen, Li Bowen first settled the account of the cart of watermelons that Zhang Ran pulled over today.

Originally, the purchase price of watermelons in the factory was two cents and five pounds, and Li Bowen directly gave Zhang Ran the price of five cents and one pound.

A cart of watermelons is about 900 catties, and Li Bowen simply asked the accountant-like employee on the side to take out 450 yuan and hand it to Zhang Ran.

The thin man who looked like an accountant was a little hesitant, "Manager Li, it's a bit unruly to do this, right?" ”

As the accountant of the beverage factory, the thin man has to calculate the cost, and Li Bowen buys watermelons at twice the purchase price, which is almost increasing the burden on the factory.

"I said that if you want to give it to you, I will bear it for you, by the way, you can take care of the 900 catties of watermelon for me first, I have other uses."

The thin man was a little confused by Li Bowen's instructions, but with Li Bowen, the factory director's Chenglong fast son-in-law, he still obediently took out 450 yuan and handed it to Zhang Ran.

easily entered the account with 450 yuan, and Zhang Ran's mood couldn't help but feel good.

It's not a lot of money, but it's not a small amount.

followed Li Bowen to the office, and the two carefully discussed the specific details of the cooperation, and signed a cooperation agreement by the way.

During the formal entry into force of the agreement, all watermelons produced by Zhang Ran must be purchased exclusively by Tianxi Beverage Factory.

Zhang Ran did not refute this, but changed the 10-year cooperation period set by Li Bowen to 5 years.

With these five years, her fruit grove should also form a scale.

As for 5 years later, whether she chooses to continue to cooperate with Tianxi Beverage Factory or go it alone, it is not too late to say it at that time.

After agreeing with Li Bowen on the time to deliver melons next time, Zhang Ran left Tianxi Beverage Factory happily.

Next, she had to go to the bookstore to buy some high school textbooks.

Although Zhang Ran was a graduate of a prestigious university in her last life, she has been graduating from high school for many years after all, and she has long forgotten many of the knowledge points of high school.

Zhang Ran plans to get a diploma, but she doesn't plan to follow the rules and stay in high school for three years.

Taking advantage of the time now, she plans to review the knowledge points of high school first.

When the school started in the fall, she decided to skip the grade directly to the third year of high school and take the college entrance examination directly in the second year.

I finally returned to the '83s, and in the '80s, when the economy was booming, she wasted an extra year by staying in school for one more year.

Moreover, reality does not allow her to slack off.

Qin Yuzhen will give birth soon, and Zhang Ran will not only have to take care of her mother next, but also have a younger brother waiting to be fed by her sister.

The greater the pressure on his head, the stronger the determination in Zhang Ran's heart.

After leaving the beverage factory, Zhang Ran returned to the fruit market he had been to before.

In the 80s, Anping County was not so much a county seat as a suburb at the junction of urban and rural areas in later generations.

There were low-rise self-built houses on both sides of the street, and as he walked along the street, Zhang Ran finally found a bookstore in a corner.

The owner of the bookstore, a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, with a pair of black-framed eyes on the bridge of his nose, was sitting at the door of the bookstore with his head down, flipping through an old book with a yellowed color.

As soon as Zhang Ran walked into the store, a strong smell of ink suddenly came to his nose, "Boss, do you sell high school textbooks here?" ”

The bookstore owner looked very attentively, and replied to Zhang Ran without raising his head, "If you need any books, you can find them yourself." ”

Zhang Ran was helpless, so he could only endure the heavy and pungent smell of ink and burrow into the pile of books.

Just as Zhang Ran was looking for books in the dark, a tall figure suddenly came in at the door of the bookstore.

The figure quickly glanced at the store, and then walked straight to Zhang Ran's position.
