Chapter 247 - 94: Yunding Hotel, Fireworks Worth Millions (2)



The driver chuckled. "Well, you’re certainly thinking ahead."

"Alright, since time isn’t an issue, I’ll go ahead and call the fireworks factory now."

Jiang Li gave him an OK sign. "No problem."

The driver pulled his personal cell phone from his pocket and dialed his friend’s number.

Aside from the initial "Hello," Jiang Li couldn’t understand a single word.

Jiang Li couldn’t help but complain to Shen Yanzhi, "Their local dialect is impossible to understand!"

Shen Yanzhi chuckled and pulled Jiang Li into his embrace. "We’re only here for a few days. It doesn’t matter if we can’t understand it."

Jiang Li buried her face in Shen Yanzhi’s chest and whispered, "What are you doing? Someone’s watching!"

Shen Yanzhi reached out and pinched her cheek. "We’re not celebrities. What’s there to be afraid of?"

Annoyed, Jiang Li pinched his waist. "Could you try to be a little more discreet?"

Shen Yanzhi said with complete confidence, "Honey, you know I have a severe case of Jiang-Li-touch-starvation. The second I’m near you, all I want to do is snuggle."

Jiang Li was floored by his shamelessness, but inside, she felt a thrill of sweetness.

Xu Shijie, in the passenger seat, squeezed his eyes shut. ’I can’t watch this. I really can’t.’

’Seriously, why did I agree to this job?’

’The pay is great, but I can’t live on a daily diet of their PDA.’

The driver hung up and glanced instinctively at the rearview mirror.

When he saw the two cuddled together, he quickly averted his eyes and cleared his throat twice. "Miss, I’ve sorted it out with them. They’ll set off the fireworks as soon as we get up the mountain."

Jiang Li gave Shen Yanzhi a shove, and he finally let go.

She sat up straight. "Okay, no problem."

Then she pulled out her phone. "What’s their payment account? I’ll transfer the money now."

The driver asked tentatively, "How about you add him on WeChat?"

Jiang Li nodded. "That works."

The driver unlocked his phone and pulled up his personal QR code. "Add me on WeChat first, and I’ll send you his contact card."

Jiang Li opened her scanner and added him as a friend.

The driver pulled over to the side of the road. After accepting the friend request, he immediately forwarded Jiang Li’s contact card to his friend. "I sent your card to him. He’ll add you in a minute."

Jiang Li blinked, a little surprised. She had expected him to send her the other person’s contact card, not send her card to them.

’Oh well,’ she thought. ’As long as we get in contact, it doesn’t matter how.’

The car had barely started moving again when a friend request popped up on her WeChat.

The moment Jiang Li tapped "Accept," a video call from the person came through.

Jiang Li instinctively looked to Shen Yanzhi. "What should I do? Answer it?"

"Answer it," Shen Yanzhi replied decisively, reaching over and tapping the "accept" button himself.

The call connected, revealing a large, round, and very friendly-looking face.

"Hello! I’m Liu Dong, the director of Yihe Fireworks Factory. I just heard from Zhang Qiang that you’re looking to buy several million yuan’s worth of fireworks?"

Jiang Li nodded. "That’s right. We’ll take whatever styles you have. We’re going to set them all off at once."

Liu Dong took a deep breath. ’No wonder Zhang Qiang said this was a huge order,’ he thought. ’He wasn’t kidding.’

He glanced at the inventory on his computer. "The fireworks we have in stock right now total about 2.3 million yuan. Would that be alright?"

It was a little less than she’d anticipated, but she knew getting that much together on short notice was impressive. "Yes, that’s fine."

"Since this is a rather large sum, we might need..."

Before Liu Dong could finish, Jiang Li cut him off. "I’ll pay you in full. The only thing is, I’ll need to trouble you and your team to set up all the fireworks and light them for us."

"I’ll pay a tip, of course."

’After all, it is New Year’s,’ Jiang Li thought. ’And over two million yuan worth of fireworks is a massive amount. It’s not something Jiang Yuemo and a couple of people could possibly handle.’

Liu Dong took another deep breath. ’Where did this dream customer fall from?’ he wondered, then immediately said, "No problem! I’ll make the arrangements right now."

’If the money’s good, you can find help even on New Year’s,’ he thought.

Jiang Li got Liu Dong’s Alipay account number and transferred three million yuan on the spot.

"The money’s been sent. Can you please confirm you’ve received it?"

Seeing the Alipay notification for the incoming funds, Liu Dong was stunned. "Whoa, why did you send so much!"

Jiang Li explained, "The remaining 700,000 is for labor."

Liu Dong gulped. "O-Okay."

Jiang Li had only asked him to find people to set off the fireworks; she hadn’t specified anything else.

’In that case,’ he thought, ’I might as well get my whole family involved. We can pocket that tip, and I’ll make a little extra on the side.’

He was a man of action. He immediately sent a message to his family’s group chat: "Family who’s still awake! Get over to Shandan Lake ASAP to help with a fireworks display. 800 yuan a head!"
