Bassey who was very happy with what the man said and since the man had given him an advanced payment of 5000 naira he was very sure that he is going to sell many drinks on Friday.


But going back to their company bassey was kind of feeling uncertain on the amount of quantity of drinks that would be enough for the gathering, so it was finally Friday and bassey came with his car full of drinks.


And the man rush out to him as many people had already gathered, so the man said please off load and go and bring more after you name your price, so bassey on his way back struggles to calculate the number of people he saw but still in an uncertain ratio" since the man said that more people are coming.


Bassey came back with two cars full of drinks and his colleagues was the one driving the second car, but the sells was on basseys name, and after off loading all the drinks bassey told the man his price and the man paid him immediately since he was in a hurry to attend to other guests.


And just like that bassey manage to raise enough money to take care of some of his educational needs as well as his personal needs.
