"Alright! That's settled then! When we come to get the bricks, we'll also bring it over! You can pay for it then!" Lin Xue nodded.
"But this..." Aunt Bai wanted to say something, but Director Bai stopped her.
"Wife, Comrade Xiao Xue is selling it to us for only two cents per pound!"
One sentence left Aunt Bai dumbfounded, as if a pie had fallen from the sky, and she was so overwhelmed with joy that she forgot to react.
"Comrade Xiao Xue, Comrade Xiao Zhang, although the payment for the rice isn't due right away, the money for the bricks is needed now. Otherwise, I can't haul it out from the brick factory!" Director Bai reverted to his businesslike demeanor.
Fifty thousand bricks cost one thousand two hundred and fifty yuan, which is no small amount!
"Alright! We have the money with us! Can we pay now?" Lin Xue asked.
"Sure! I have the receipt with me! If you pay now, I can give you the receipt right away!" Director Bai nodded.
