    Wu Dong opened the door, and before he could speak, the postman asked first, "Are you Mr. Wu Dong?"

    "Yes, it's me. Do you have my email?" Wu Dong responded.

    ¡°It¡¯s a parcel, please sign for it,¡± the postman said.

    Although Wu Dong felt confused, he was sure that it was something sent by someone from Cheng Zhidong, so he signed the receipt happily. After that, the postman handed the parcel to Wu Dong, then said goodbye and left.

    After a while, Wu Dong returned to the house, put the parcel on the table, and nervously put his ear to the parcel to eavesdrop. He didn't hear the "click" sound, so he opened the parcel with confidence, and then discovered that the parcel was  Inside was a box of blurred cakes and a greeting card.

    Wu Dong was speechless at the vague cake, and then he opened the greeting card, and as soon as he opened it, the electronic tones of a birthday song came out. On the greeting page of the greeting card, he only wrote a short line of congratulations: "Wu Dong, I wish you the best."  Happy birthday." There are several names on the signature, including Cui Cui, Xi Weiwei, Yan Qiuli, Li Bing, Cheng Zhidong and December.

    After Wu Dong read the greeting card, he understood the meaning of the cake. It was a birthday gift, a box of birthday cakes. However, something went wrong during the delivery of the box of birthday cakes, and the cakes fell apart. "Happy Birthday"  The four words were blurred, but after all, it was a box of birthday cakes, and Wu Dong had mixed feelings when he looked at the box of birthday cakes, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but feel moist.

    "Haha" Wu Dong smiled faintly, then picked up the knife and fork in the cake box, cut himself a piece of cake, and then tasted it with relish. After a long time, he finished one piece of cake, and then said to himself:  "It tastes pretty good, it probably wasn't made by Xi Weiwei, hahaha"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The next day, the sky turned bright.

    Wu Dong got up early and ran to the dock before dawn. At this time, people were already coming and going on the dock. All kinds of goods were unloaded on the dock and shipped away by buyers.

    Wu Dong wandered around on the pier, asking about prices from time to time, and also asked the seller for his contact number. His actions made it clear at first glance that he wanted to do business. He was inquiring about the market, and  Contact source.

    As others have guessed, Wu Dong really wants to find a source of goods, and his ultimate goal is to open a supermarket!

    Due to the money crisis, Wu Dong had to find a profitable job. Due to family reasons, Wu Dong had a deep understanding of supermarkets. Wu Dong's mother, Hu Xiuxiu, had been running the supermarket. Wu Dong had been in the supermarket when he was very young.  Help, Wu Dong knows everything about the steps of purchasing, shipping, settlement, etc.

    In this way, Wu Dong paid attention to the supermarket and took action.

    If you want to run a supermarket, in addition to having a store, the final thing you need is to have an undetermined supply of goods. If it is a small supermarket, you need to spend money to purchase the supply. If it is a large supermarket, then the supply supplier pays to purchase the goods.  Bit, this is the customer bullying the store, and the opposite is the store bullying the customer.

    ??The supermarkets run by Hu Xiuxiu were only small and medium-sized in scale. However, there were relatively few supermarkets on Tashan Island. There were no large supermarkets at all. Most of them were small and medium-sized supermarkets, so the operating sales were quite considerable.

    However, in terms of supply of goods for the supermarket run by Hu Xiuxiu, Ma Tashan helped contact him at the beginning, so it was not too difficult to contact the supply of goods. But now Wu Dong wants to start from scratch, and there is no one else to help him contact the supply of goods.  I had no choice but to run around on my own.

    So, Wu Dong got up early this morning and went to the dock to inquire about prices and contact merchants.

    However, despite Wu Dong¡¯s busy work, his harvest was very small. Most of the goods on Four Seasons Island are not self-produced, but are shipped through various channels!

    Precisely because these goods are shipped from outside, buyers have already been booked for these goods after they arrive, and Wu Dong can't buy them even if he wants to!  And he wandered around the dock all morning, but he couldn't contact any source of goods.

    Logically speaking, when someone buys goods, those big merchants should warmly welcome them, but now they are indifferent. The reason is very simple, because the entire Yuxing is in a unique stage of development, green and pollution-free development, so  On the entire planet, both food and industrial products are in a state of shortage. When big merchants come, the goods they bring are not worried about being sold. Instead, buyers are begging sellers to provide goods. This situation is completely different from that on earth.  The situation was reversed, which made Wu Dong very helpless.

    After a busy morning, until midnight, Wu Dong sat down at a food stall on the pier and ordered a bowl of tofu puffs, a piece of green onion cake and two tea eggs. While eating, he thought with a frown on whether he should  Ditch the supermarket plan.

    ¡°Brother, why are you looking so sad?¡± asked the middle-aged man selling breakfast.?? said.

    When Wu Dong heard the middle-aged man's question, he glanced at the middle-aged man, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he said impulsively: "Uncle, let's open a restaurant together!"

    "Hahaha" The middle-aged man suddenly laughed, as if he found it very interesting.

    "Hey, uncle, don't laugh, I'm quite serious. I have a storefront, which happens to be in the neighborhood. The location is pretty good. If you are willing, I can open a restaurant with you in partnership." Wu Dong suggested.

    "Brother, have you just come to our place?" the middle-aged man said.

    Wu Dong was startled for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's not just here, it's been a while."

    "It won't take long." The middle-aged man said, sitting diagonally across from Wu Dong, looking sideways at the dock and said, "To tell you the truth, I also have a store on the street, and it's located near the intersection.  Dijiaoer is quite nice, and I have opened the store for some time, but the business in the store is very bad. First, because there are few people on our Four Seasons Island, not many people patronize it. Second, the prices are too expensive, and the ingredients alone should be very expensive.  It¡¯s expensive, plus the processing fee¡­ not many people can afford it.¡±

    "Yeah, not many people can afford it, it's too expensive." Wu Dong felt very awkward and helpless.

    "Haha, not only others can't afford it, but I can't afford it myself. No, a top-notch chef actually sells breakfast here at the pier." The middle-aged man laughed.

    ¡°Selling breakfast is not bad, and it¡¯s on the dock, so you¡¯ll definitely make a lot of money.¡± Wu Dong muttered.

    "Haha" The middle-aged man smiled, did not answer the question, and changed the subject, saying: "I came to the dock to find the source of goods, right?"

    "Well, let's find the source of the supply." When Wu Dong said this, he suddenly thought of something, so he looked sideways at the middle-aged man and asked: "Uncle, where did you get the food? Can you introduce it to me?"

    "Hey, you little brother, I just said a few words to you and you want to steal my business. Don't think about it. You can eat while I'm busy." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he didn't wait for Wu Dong to answer.  He stood up and walked away to greet other guests.

    "Haha" Wu Dong smiled helplessly and did not continue to pester.

    After a while, Wu Dong had eaten and drank enough, stood up to pay, and wanted to leave. But just as he was about to leave, the middle-aged stall owner said to him: "Brother, you just came here.  , I must be looking for some work. If you don¡¯t mind getting fishy, ??I can introduce you to a business.¡±

    "Oh? What kind of deal?" Wu Dong asked.

    The middle-aged stall owner pointed to the east and said: "You can go east along the pier. It won't go very far, about two kilometers. There is also a pier there. It is a small pier. It is mainly used for fishing boats. You can go there.  If you can wholesale some fish and sell them, you can probably make a fortune if you can get good ones.¡±

    ¡° Are there fish in the Rain Star Sea?¡± Wu Dong asked.

    "Of course there are fish! And there are quite a lot of them, butthese fish are mutated and weird, and not many people dare to eat them," said the middle-aged stall owner.

    "No one dares to eat it? Mutation? What's wrong? Let's talk about it in detail." Wu Dong said.

    "The fish fry from the Earth become strange and weird when they arrive in the sea of ????the Rain Star. Coupled with two hundred years of evolution, they are different from the ones on the Earth. In short, few people on our island dare to eat those weird things.  Fish, well, you'd better go to the small pier and have a look. You won't know the specific situation unless you see it with your own eyes." said the middle-aged stall owner.

    "Okay, then I'll go over and have a look, uncle, thank you." Wu Dong thanked you.

    "No thanks, there aren't many people on our island. We are all neighbors from now on, so we should help out." said the middle-aged stall owner.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    In about twenty minutes, Wu Dong arrived at the small pier where the fishing boats were parked. The pier was really small and there were not many boats parked. Wu Dong counted and found that there were only six small fishing boats on the pier.  The fishing boats are very strange. They are actually equipped with heavy machine guns, or cannons!

    "Is this a fishing boat? It looks more like a small warship." Wu Dong muttered.

    Wu Dong said as he approached the pier, and there were more than a dozen people working on the pier, unloading baskets of fish from the small fishing boat. When Wu Dong took a closer look, he was shocked. There were no fish in the basket.  Ah, they are all monsters!

    As soon as Wu Dong approached, the fisherman immediately said to Wu Dong: "Hey, young man, want to buy fish?"

    "What is this?" Wu Dong asked, pointing to a monster in a basket.

    The monster Wu Dong refers to looks very much like an octopus, but this "octopus" has two big strange eyes and a big mouth full ofTeeth, very scary.

    "This is the shark-headed octopus, the shark's shark, the shark-headed octopus." The fisherman introduced.

    "What about this one?" Wu Dong pointed at a strange fish similar to a shark-headed octopus. It also looked like an octopus. It also had big eyes, sharp teeth and a big mouth on its head, but the monster also had several rows of shiny black fish scales on its body.

    "This is also a shark-headed octopus, another species of shark-headed octopus. It's like an apple. There are northern green apples and southern red apples. They are both called apples, but they all taste the same." said the fisherman.

    Wu Dong took a careful look at the other baskets and found that these strange fish seemed to be shark-headed octopuses. Each one looked strange, especially the two dead fish eyes, which looked alarming, but they were still fish after all.  , and there¡¯s a lot of meat, and it probably tastes similar to octopus.

    Wu Dong examined the shark-headed octopus for a moment, thinking about it at the same time, and then asked the fisherman: "Is this kind of strange fish easy to sell on the island?"

    The fisherman hesitated for a moment, as if hesitating, and then said: "Young man, I won't deceive you. This kind of fish is not easy to sell. This thing is similar to a puffer fish. Part of the body is poisonous. The big head of this shark-headed octopus cannot be eaten.  Only the whiskers are edible, and they taste similar to octopus, but they need to be washed many times before cooking, otherwise toxins will remain"
