Siheyuan: a hole in the sky with you
Chapter 95 Lu Xiaowan
Lu Xiaowan was actually specially recruited. She was born in the Lu family, she was a daughter of a wealthy family, and she married a man like Father Lou. Her family conditions were definitely among the best in Huajing.
As for why people like her come to the black market, the reason is very simple. They have a share of this black market, so they come here to take a look from time to time.
Sometimes it's her husband, sometimes it's her, and today it happened to be her who came to check.
Wu Sihai was currently busy doing ideological work for his subordinates and had no time to pay attention to Zhou Jianguo. Therefore, Lu Xiaowan, who had just arrived at the black market, took over this matter and prepared to inquire about Zhou Jianguo's situation.
Lu Xiaowan looked at the cucumber stalks in her hand. She could say with certainty that these cucumbers must have been picked for less than a day. There were indeed cucumbers in the greenhouses around Huajing, but they were definitely not as good as this. Therefore, these cucumbers must have come from other places.
Shipped from the place.
Even Lu Xiaowan could not transport so many vegetables to Huajing from outside in one day.
What's more important is that they sell it directly on the black market, which shows that they don't care about the prying eyes of others.
"It's really like what Sihai said, this is a fierce dragon crossing the river!" Lu Xiaowan took a deep breath and showed a 100% attitude.
"Okay, let me see what you are like as a fierce dragon crossing the river!" Lu Xiaowan smiled slightly, looking forward to the next 'confrontation' in her heart.
"In this season, there are still such fresh vegetables. Young man, where do you get these vegetables?" Lu Xiaowan asked pretending to be curious.
As soon as they came up, Lu Xiaowan unsheathed her sword and inquired about the origin of these vegetables simply and clearly.
The people around him also pricked up their ears, everyone wanted to hear the secret inside.
Zhou Jianguo was not angry. He knew that since he was out selling vegetables, he would have to face this problem sooner or later. Even if no one asked him today, someone would ask him tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Therefore, he had already thought of an excuse to explain.
Zhou Jianguo said with a smile on his face: "Auntie, all my vegetables come from the south."
"The south? You're not talking about the one in Yangcheng, are you?" Lu Xiaowan's eyes flashed with realization. There are indeed such fresh vegetables in Yangcheng.
"Yes!" Zhou Jianguo nodded: "They come from Yangcheng. These vegetables cannot be grown here, but the temperature over there in Yangcheng is very high, more than 20 degrees all year round, so there are
Able to grow vegetables.”
"But it's thousands of kilometers away from Huajing. How did you transport it here?"
"Auntie, there are many ways, such as using a boat or directly using an airplane." Zhou Jianguo said two ways at once.
"..." Everyone was speechless. They also knew these two methods, but could ordinary people use them?
However, on second thought, they couldn't do it, but others were different.
Just like this person, since he can produce so many fresh vegetables for sale, it can be seen that he has a deep background and has many ways to transport these fresh vegetables. Otherwise, where did he get these vegetables?
Thinking of this, some thoughtful people gave up on some of their ideas.
I have found out about the source of the vegetables, but hearing about it is almost like not hearing about it.
If you want to transport vegetables, you must first be able to find a ship to transport them to you, or find a plane... Forget it, just go to sleep, there is everything in the dream!
"You...are amazing!" Lu Xiaowan didn't know what to say at this time, so she could only give Zhou Jianguo a thumbs up and say "Awesome".
"Sure enough, this is indeed a fierce dragon crossing the river!" Lu Xiaowan confirmed again that the person in front of him was not simple.
Using ships and airplanes to transport vegetables, haha, Lu Xiaowan has actually thought about it, but with their family's ability, they really can't do this.
Perhaps it would be barely possible to transport it by ship, but Lu Xiaowan can guarantee that the vegetables shipped would have rotted by then.
It usually takes seven to ten days to get from Yangcheng to Huajing by boat. After such a long time, those vegetables would have rotted long ago.
Of course, there are ways to keep it fresh, but this requires a special cold storage. With Lu Xiaowan's current ability, where can she buy such a boat?
As for airplanes, haha, just go to sleep. What are you daydreaming about in broad daylight?
"Auntie, what are you going to buy?" Zhou Jianguo didn't know that Lu Xiaowan in front of him was here to find out the details of Yi. He only regarded her as a guest, so he greeted Lu Xiaowan very warmly.
Lu Xiaowan nodded this time. Such fresh vegetables are indeed rare. If you miss this time, you don't know when such fresh vegetables will be available.
"How much does your cucumber cost per pound?" Lu Xiaowan turned into a real housewife and asked, holding the cucumber in her hand.
"Auntie, all vegetables have the same price, one yuan and fifty cents per catty."
Lu Xiaowan also frowned when she heard the price was one yuan and fifty cents per pound. The price was a bit high.
"One dollar and five pounds per pound, how shameless!" Lu Xiaowan slandered Zhou Jianguo from the bottom of her heart.
But she really liked these vegetables, so in the next second, Lu Xiaowan truly transformed into an old lady buying vegetables in the market, starting to worry about the prices.
"Young man, your price is a bit too expensive. It's just cucumbers, not meat. When cucumbers were usually the most expensive, they were only 30 cents per catty, but now you're selling them for 1.50 cents per catty, which is a whole five cents more expensive.
Times. Now the meat is only 75 cents per catty. At this price, you can buy two catties of meat. It’s too expensive, too expensive!” Lu Xiaowan kept shaking her head, saying that the price was too expensive.
Zhou Jianguo seemed to have expected this, and he immediately explained: "Auntie, that's not what you said. Think about it, when is it now? It's March, right! You can search the whole Huajing, if you can find
Do you have such fresh vegetables?
The 30 cents per pound you just mentioned was in May and June, but it’s not March now. You are also a veteran of grocery shopping. Look at the vegetables I have here. Every one of them is top-notch.
Even when these vegetables are on the market in large quantities, I can guarantee that the vegetables here are the best."
After saying that, Zhou Jianguo directly picked up a cucumber, rubbed it across it, and it suddenly broke. Zhou Jianguo didn't need to do anything more. A fresh and sweet smell of cucumber spread to everyone's noses. Some of those who were close were all
He swallowed involuntarily.
"Auntie, do those cucumbers you bought before have the fragrance of my cucumber?"
After speaking, Zhou Jianguo directly picked up half of the cucumber, stretched out his hand to stroke the cucumber, and rubbed off the burrs on the cucumber. Without rubbing or washing it, he just put the piece of cucumber into his mouth.
Click, a very clear sound sounded, and Zhou Jianguo ate the cucumber.
The scent of cucumber was already very strong before, but now that Zhou Jianguo ate it, the taste was even stronger. Especially for Lu Xiaowan, who was closest to Zhou Jianguo, her throat moved no less than three times. She was so greedy!
Seeing this, Zhou Jianguo knew what he was doing. He picked up the other half of the cucumber and said, "Auntie, if you don't believe it, you can try it. It's free!"
After saying that, Zhou Jianguo handed the remaining half of the cucumber to Lu Xiaowan.
Lu Xiaowan actually couldn't bear it for a long time. Now that Zhou Jianguo had put the cucumber in front of her mouth, she couldn't bear it any longer. She directly picked up the half of the cucumber and followed Zhou Jianguo's previous example, just wiping the top.
The burrs were put into the mouth and eaten immediately without washing them.
"Crack!!" After one sip, Lu Xiaowan's eyes widened. She was conquered by the wonderful taste.
"It's delicious, it tastes so good!" Lu Xiaowan couldn't help but praise.
At this moment, Lu Xiaowan knew that she had lost, because she simply could not refuse such a delicious cucumber.
When she was about to say something, several more people came to the stall. They were also middle-aged housewives in their thirties and forties. After seeing the fresh vegetables here, their eyes lit up and they started to pick them one by one.
Soon, the sister-in-law on the left pointed to the green pepper next to Zhou Jianguo with her right hand and asked directly: "Young man, how do you sell this green pepper?"
"Sister-in-law, the vegetables here are all at the same price, one dollar and fifty cents per catty!" Zhou Jianguo replied enthusiastically, and also picked up two green peppers and handed them to the sister-in-law.
"Look, my green pepper is absolutely tender and full of green pepper flavor. It can even be eaten raw." After speaking, Zhou Jianguo began to demonstrate again, picked up a green pepper and started eating it.
In order to sell these vegetables, Zhou Jianguo worked hard!
"Click, click!!"
Zhou Jianguo ate a green pepper in a few mouthfuls, and the surrounding area was immediately filled with the aroma of green pepper.
The effect was so good that the sister-in-law immediately decided to buy some green peppers.
"Give me three catties!" The sister-in-law was very proud and asked for three catties at once.
"Okay, three kilograms of green peppers!" Zhou Jianguo picked up the scale and weighed three kilograms of green peppers.
"Sister Yu, don't you buy some?" The sister-in-law said to her companions while paying.
Her companion shook his head and said: "The price of vegetables is too high. In the past, vegetables like this were only two or three cents per catty, but now they are just one yuan and a half, which is more than five times more expensive. It is too expensive!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jianguo immediately began to explain: "Sister-in-law, this time is different. You are talking about June and July. There were many vegetables like this at that time, and of course they were not expensive. But look at it now.
It's March, and there's still ice on the streets. Where can you find fresh vegetables at this time? Besides, my vegetables are shipped from Yangcheng by plane, and the freight is quite high. Therefore, the price of my vegetables is
It’s really not expensive.”
When Zhou Jianguo was in college in his previous life, he often went out to set up stalls to make money, so his eloquence had long been honed. No, these three sisters-in-law were no match for him at all, and they nodded repeatedly when he spoke.
