897 Whale Watching (1/2)

The shop was all cleaned up, and it was still quite early in the morning, so there were no customers at the moment.

Pedestrians outside were coming and going; they were either heading to work or to school to start their daily activities.

The young courier riders had their waterproof jackets on and drove electric tricycles marked with their courier company logo as they went around delivering parcels to the recipient's hands.

Zhang Zian just had some free time when a courier parked at the door of the store.

”Is… Mr. Hottie here? We have a parcel for you,” the young courier stuck his head in the shop and asked.

”Yes, that's me.” Zhang Zian walked towards him.

The young courier took out a big square box from the trunk. From how he handled it, the box did not seem as though it was light.

”Here's your parcel. Please acknowledge the receipt of your item.” The young courier took out two more parcels from the trunk and placed them together, then handed the receipt to Zhang Zian.

Zhang Zian took the receipt and pen from him, but he didn't rush to sign his name. Instead, he communicated with the young courier. ”I'll have to check the goods before I sign.”

The young courier was eager to deliver his other parcels. After all, every delivery was an income, but since Zhang Zian insisted on checking, he had no choice but to agree.

Zhang Zian first checked the box for any damages, then pulled out the Swiss army knife on his key chain, ready to cut the tape that sealed the box.

”Master, I understand that you're eager to try on your new women's wear, but we're in public, and it's not going to be a good influence…” Wang Qian came over and whispered, indicating that there were many pedestrians watching.

”Rubbish! I've never worn women's clothes!” Zhang Zian scolded.

”You don't have to deny it. The package clearly states, 'Items of clothing.' What else could it be other than women's clothing?” Wang Qian asked as he pointed to one of the parcels.

Zhang Zian was too lazy to explain––especially in front of the young courier. He opened up the three boxes one by one.

”Yi? What's this? A life jacket?” Wang Qian was left in a blur when he saw a bright red life jacket in the box that had been labeled ”items of clothing.”

In another small box, there was an uninflated lifebuoy.

As for the largest and heaviest box, it was loaded with an deflated assault boat, electric motors, paddles, and other gadgets from the seller. Whether it was useful or useless, everything he needed was inside the box.

Zhang Zian was not very confident about the quality of the assault boat. After all, it was produced by a small workshop. In the case of any leakage, not only was it troublesome to return, but he might also have to pay for the postage. That was why Zian was so insistent on checking the goods in person. If there really was a problem with the quality, he would just refuse to accept it.

Zhang Zian had Wang Qian bring out a power strip from the store. He plugged the air pump in and started to inflate the assault boat. The air pump started to run, and the assault boat slowly expanded and began to take shape. As it inflated, it could finally be recognized as a boat.

The young courier who was eager to deliver his other parcels was surprised. He had been a courier for quite some time. There were people who bought all sorts of items, but that day was the first time he saw someone buy a boat.

”Stop staring foolishly. Help me check if there's any leakage.” Zhang Zian pushed Wang Qian, who was still in a blur.

Because it was still early, there were no customers for the time being, so even Lu Yiyun, Jiang Feifei, and Li Kun were called over by Zhang Zian. Everyone's eyes were almost glued to the ship while they did a thorough check.
