Ma Wu bought over twenty carloads of coal from the coal bosses at Loess Bridge and quickly shipped them out.
The coal from Loess Bridge was cheap. With shipping costs, the profit margin was slim. However, Li Qi and Ma Wu had an agreement with the Defense Agency to halve the freight cost, so they still made a decent amount of money.
After calculating the accounts, Ma Wu made a suggestion, "Old Qi, why don't we just become middlemen? It's less trouble than mining coal ourselves."
Li Banfeng replied, "We still need to mine our own coal. We didn't come here just for this bit of business."
Ma Wu was just speaking off the cuff. The main focus was still on boosting the human energy of Loess Bridge.
Once the Little Train was repaired, the buyers were contacted, and enough coal was mined, Ma Wu immediately arranged for the loading and delivery of the coal.
Come nightfall, twenty coal cars were filled. Ma Wu sat in the cab while the Coachman stayed by the Little Train, accompanying him.
