With Wang Qingshan's help, the work sped up significantly.
And although Wang Qingshan looked as rotund as a small hill, he was all muscle.
A bag of flour weighed a hundred pounds, and Chen Yu usually found carrying one bag somewhat strenuous, but Wang Qingshan could effortlessly shoulder three at a time.

At half past eleven in the morning, Tong Ming sent someone to pick up a thousand pounds of marinated meat.
They also paid an advance and said they would take another thousand pounds in the afternoon, asking Chen Yu to keep it aside for them.
