"Comrade, where did Vice President Guo Kun go? I'm waiting to unload the goods so I can get back to the city," the driver said, frowning as he approached Xu Caikun. "Don't let him make us late for our regular shift!"

These days, drivers are among the top eight professionals, incredibly powerful, unlike those in later generations who jokingly call themselves "driver-capable porters." These days, if you want a driver to unload your goods, they won't even give you a second glance. And if you say another word, they might not beat you up, but when your next shipment will arrive is anyone's guess.

They have a secure job and aren't afraid of you making things difficult for them. You can quit or not, it's up to you. If you dare threaten them, they'll just take you away, and you'll have to beg them to bring you back.

"Oh, comrade, this is really unfortunate. My uncle has gone out, and we can't find him for a while. How about this, why don't you unload the goods from the truck first..."

"Are you kidding me?" Xu Caikun was interrupted by the driver across the street before he could finish speaking. "Since no one is here to sign for it, I'll open it and unload it for you. If anything's missing, who's responsible?"

"If we really can't find it, then we'll just take it back and wait until tomorrow or sometime when the port transport team calls to confirm that it's there before we bring it back." After saying that, the driver folded the list in his hand, stuffed it into his shirt pocket, and was about to leave.

"Hey, no, no, no!" Xu Caikun hurriedly grabbed the driver. "Comrade, don't rush, don't rush, just wait a little longer. My uncle might be back soon."

The driver glanced at his Shanghai-plated watch. "It's already 5 PM. If we wait any longer, we'll be heading back to the city in the dark!"

Xu Caikun dared not let the driver leave. If they left, his uncle Guo Kun would come back and scold him to death.

Left with no other choice, Xu Caikun could only try his best to persuade them to stay. A dozen drivers gathered around to inquire about the situation, and Xu Caikun could only politely offer them cigarettes and urge them to wait a little longer.

Chen Dong was driving his Maybach with his wife Zhang Yi and son Xiao Chenhui. They had just finished eating at the state-run restaurant and were driving back to the county guesthouse when they saw a large crowd gathered in front of the county hospital. Among the crowd, they also saw a line of large trucks parked outside the hospital gate.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Zhang Yi asked curiously, "Tony, has something happened? Why are so many people gathered at the hospital entrance?"

"Daddy, look! So many cars!" Little Chen Hui, sitting in his back car seat, leaned against the car window and shouted curiously, "Wow!"

Chen Dong smiled and said to Zhang Yi, "The batch of supplies I ordered should have arrived at the port, and the port convoy has brought them over."

"Then why don't they unload it? What are they waiting for?"

Seeing Zhang Yi's confusion, Chen Dong slowed down to avoid hitting the onlookers on the road. "I filled in Dean Guo's name as the recipient, and he just happened to be taken to the city by his superior today."

Zhang Yi chuckled and said helplessly, "Perfectly avoided!"

Chen Dong's Maybach was blocked by the crowd and could only honk its horn and slowly inch forward. Xu Caikun, who was still struggling with the other drivers, heard the horn of Chen Dong's Maybach, quickly squeezed out of the crowd, and ran towards Chen Dong.

"Mr. Chen," Xu Caikun bowed and knocked on the car window. Chen Dong rolled down the window and asked with a smile, "Comrade, is there something you need?"

"Well, Mr. Chen, the batch of supplies you donated has arrived, but my uncle... oh no, I mean Dean Guo, is out right now. Could you go over and explain to the drivers if we can unload the goods first?" Xu Caikun said to Chen Dong with a smile.

Chen Dong thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I'll take my wife and children back to the guesthouse first, then drive over. I'll also bring those documents with me."

"Okay, okay, thank you for your help, Mr. Chen!"

Even though Chen Dong was in China, after he placed the order, the system still had the company in Japan send a shipping notification via telegram. The post office in Nanshan County received the telegram and immediately delivered it to Chen Dong.

After Chen Dong took his wife and children back to their room at the guesthouse, he drove to the entrance of the county hospital. There were fewer onlookers now, perhaps because of dinner, but there were still quite a few people gathering around.

Seeing Chen Dong drive up in his Maybach, many curious eyes turned to him from the crowd. Xu Caikun quickly led the security patrolmen over to maintain order so that Chen Dong could walk towards the gate.

It was almost six o'clock. The summer sun was long, and the dozen or so drivers were starting to get impatient, clamoring to leave. In the crowd, Chen Dong, wearing a white shirt, gray trousers, and leather shoes, walked over with a smile.

Chen Dong didn't say anything, but habitually took out a pack of Huazi cigarettes and gave one to each of the dozen or so drivers to calm their agitated emotions.

"Comrade, take a look at this first," Chen Dong said, handing one of the drivers a delivery notice sent by telegram from Japan. "This is the notice sent by the Japanese company after I made the purchase and payment. It has my name and the name of the person who signed for it in the remarks."

Then Chen Dong took out the certificate issued by the Municipal Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and handed it to the driver. "This is my identity certificate. This batch of goods was purchased by me and donated to the County People's Hospital. I originally wanted Dean Guo Kun to sign for it directly, but he is not here right now. In order to avoid delaying everyone's precious time."

"I can only come here first to coordinate and unload these goods. Please check the paperwork; are there any problems?"

The driver holding Chen Dong's telegram and identification exchanged glances with the other drivers behind him, noticing that the man opposite him was actually an overseas Chinese who had returned from America. He couldn't help but look at Chen Dong a few more times before saying, "Comrade Chen, there are no problems with the paperwork. We can proceed with unloading!"

"Okay," Chen Dong said to Xu Caikun, "Take the drivers to the warehouse and arrange for people to unload the goods. Also, have the hospital cafeteria prepare some food. The drivers have been waiting for so long, let them have something to eat first."

"But the hospital doesn't have enough manpower to help unload the goods right now, Mr. Chen. There are more than a dozen large trucks outside. How long will it take to unload them?" Xu Caikun lowered his voice and whispered to Chen Dong.

Nobody's here. Aren't all these people watching outside? It's just a matter of spending some money. As long as it can be solved with money, it's no big deal for Chen Dong!

Chen Dong waved his hand and shouted to the curious onlookers, "Comrades, there's a shortage of manpower for unloading goods at the county hospital right now. Anyone willing to help unload, I'll give ten yuan per person per hour for the unloading fee!"

What the hell!

The crowd erupted in uproar upon hearing this!
