The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 26 Greenhouse Vegetables

A few days passed in a hurry, and two days before the Little New Year, Dachengzi came over on a stupid black and thick bicycle. It was a very old bicycle, and the black paint on the bicycle was mottled and peeling off, except for the bell that was supposed to ring.

If it doesn't make any noise, other places will make noises like "clang, bangcang".

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Dachengzi's "greenhouse vegetables" are ready to be harvested. Where to sell them is a question, so today he came here specifically to ask where is the best place to sell them.

In the warm room, everyone sat together, and Dachengzi asked the question.

"Come to our county to sell it! It's close and it's convenient to go back and forth." Grandma said first.

"No, the consumption level in our county is not that high, so it's not suitable." The aunt refused at first, saying that they were very familiar with the consumption level in the county.[

"No way. I went to the village to see it. It looks like it will take a lot of harvest. I guess it will have to be pulled by a car." Dachengzi looked at the growth of his vegetables and then went to the village. It can be said that it was a good harvest. "

If it’s a car, it’s definitely not suitable if it’s too cheap.”

"Then go to the provincial capital and sell it." Dad said. He had just returned from the provincial capital. After meeting his mother, he came back to help.

"How much does it cost per kilogram to keep the profit? Although you gave me the seeds, I can't let you give them to me for free! Everyone said that after making money, add two to one to make five and divide it equally." Dachengzi said honestly.

He said that they had all discussed this at home. The greenhouse was learned from others, the vegetable seeds were given by others, and even the skills had to be taught by others, so they couldn't just take it for free!

"If we go to the provincial capital to sell, the round trip will take nearly three hours. We have to pay for the car rental and gas. We have to set a high price." Mr. Lin said.

"It costs at least 50 cents per pound." Fang Monan suddenly interrupted.

"What, you might as well just grab it!" The aunt stared at her and said, this is too dark!

"It's just too high, and it won't be sold. In summer, it only costs a few cents per pound." Dachengzi was a little frightened by her pricing.

"High, not high at all. Nannan really got it right this time. You also said that the price is in summer. Can you eat these green leafy vegetables this winter? Things are rare and expensive, and we are exclusive. I

I think the price is too low." Mr. Lin said in a fair manner. He gave Fang Monan a meaningful look, and the word "Meng" covered her up. She quickly covered her mouth and knelt down.

The gesture of "thank you", no more words.

Mr. Lin smiled and continued: "Yeah! I think it's OK. Zhengping has just returned from the provincial capital and should have some understanding of their consumption. What do you think?"

"What the old man said makes sense, let's go to the provincial capital to sell it." Dad supported, but the consumption level in the provincial capital is higher than here. "I'll look for a car like this. I have a friend who drives for a grain depot. He can

Please help me. Dachengzi, please estimate how many dishes there are."

"A lot. Originally, the places we planted were around the front and back of the kitchen, or in the heating area. But we got more seedlings. Later, we planted them in front of and behind the house, and we didn't leave any areas with soil in the yard. No.

Thinking about their cold resistance, although they don't grow as well as in warm places, they are not bad." Dachengzi touched his head and said honestly. "Like tomatoes, they are as big as my fist in warm places, but they also grow in colder places.

It's like Nannan's fist; like a leek, the warm one is two bundles long, and the cold one is as long as one bundle." He kept gesticulating with his hand.

"Okay, let's figure it out, when will we leave, and let them go home to pick, bundle, and neatly sort the things." Dad said happily after listening to his words. From what he said, the appearance of the vegetables will probably fetch a good price.

.

"No, another problem is that cars can't enter the village. The dirt roads in the countryside are too narrow to drive cars." Dachengzi thought with a sad face and said, "What can we do?"

"Hey! It's easy. First transport the vegetables to the county by mule cart, and then load them into cars." Mr. Lin thought for a while and said. "It just needs to be transported a few more times."

"Yeah! That's it? By the way, each family weighs the food and writes it down. This will make it easier to settle accounts later." Grandma patted her legs and thought of it.

"I'll go home now, put the dishes in order, weigh them, and start delivering them here." After finishing speaking, Dachengzi ran out.

Dad also went back to the city and brought the car back.

After listening to them discussing when to set off, Fang Monan took Mr. Lin and his grandma out and asked them about paint and white cloth. A mysterious smile flashed at the corner of her mouth, and they knew it then. Mr. Lin had some guesses, but he didn't

Vibrant voice.

The day before the New Year, Dachengzi made six trips with two mule carts to bring back the vegetables. They said the vegetables weighed thousands of kilograms! Then he poured the vegetables onto the cart and covered them with thick

The thick canvas was wrapped tightly to avoid freezing. On the day of the New Year, the four of them, my father, the driver, and two brothers, Sun Youcheng, drove towards the provincial capital at dawn. Mr. Lin came to

When I left, I told him to give my father a cloth bag and tell him what was inside, and then gave him careful instructions on what to do when he was about to enter the city.[

Due to the delay of the fog, they drove slower than usual. When they entered the provincial capital, it was already past nine o'clock. They parked the car on the side of the road, took out the cloth bag and opened it. The two people pulled it apart. Inside was a white cloth with paint on it.

It was painted as if they were going to sell vegetables. The words "good luck comes first" were written under the tomatoes, and the words "long and long" were written under the leeks. The four people tied them to the fence of the car together, not even letting go of the front of the car.

The words 'Happy New Year' are written in black letters on red cloth.

Dad and the others walked around the main thoroughfare in the city. You can imagine how sensational it was, and then stopped at the edge of a vegetable market.

They came down and pulled open the canvas, and the emerald green color shone under the sunlight. The fragrance of vegetables teased people's sense of smell. For people who have only been able to eat cabbage, radishes, and potatoes for a long time,

So tempting.

Immediately someone came up to ask and hesitated when they heard the price. It was too expensive! Compared with summer, it was not a bit different. Dad took the tomatoes and leeks, stood on the car, and shouted loudly: "We come from the clouds."

In the county seat, these are the 'vegetables' we grow there. We don't want to celebrate the New Year. We wish you all a happy New Year in advance. I wish you all a happy life in the coming year, like these tomatoes, with 'good luck and good luck', and like these leeks.

'Forever'."

"Wow..." The people in the vegetable market exploded. They have never seen such a talkative person.

Dad continued: "It's Chinese New Year, aunt, aunt, aunt, eldest sister, sell it to the elderly to take home, give it as a festive gift, and have a change of taste!" More and more people crowded around the car.

The person who asked about the price just now said that although it is a bit more expensive, after all, we can eat fresh green leafy vegetables in winter. This time, we are a bit extravagant and spend money to buy it.

After a start, it was much easier to handle. Dad shouted loudly to maintain order, and several other people collected money and weighed the vegetables. Fortunately, the green leafy vegetables were bundled and weighed one kilogram, which speeded up the process. Cucumbers and

Tomatoes must be weighed now, slow down, and simply divide into two teams.

Soon the cart of vegetables was almost finished, and they left reluctantly without buying any. They packed up their things and prepared to go home. At this moment, a middle-aged man trotted up to the car. "We are here."

It’s sold out, you’re late.”

Seeing that he still wouldn't leave, he bent down and held his knees with both hands, panting constantly. Dachengzi said, "Take your breath first and then talk."

The visitor was panting, and it was so cold that he was sweating on his forehead. He saw the car behind him and chased after him, but unfortunately he was a step too late. "I am from the 'Hao Wei Xian' restaurant. Do you have any vegetables at home?"

?”

"I'm sorry, we just planted these, and they all came here." Dachengzi said with a smile. "But we still planted them, and they won't mature until spring."

"Wait a minute." He slowly calmed down his breathing. Hearing Sun Youcheng's words, he continued: "I mean, next spring, before these vegetables are put on the market in large quantities, I can cover them all. We can pay as much as you want.

discuss."

Da Chengzi looked at his father and nodded, "Okay! Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

A group of people walked to the back of his restaurant. It was already past eleven o'clock, and people came in one after another. They went around to the back of the restaurant, and after a simple negotiation, they signed the order.

After finishing the matter, Dad and the others drove back quickly in the car. By this time, the thick fog had dissipated, and they reached home in an hour.

Grandma saw them coming in, and quickly brought them a large bowl of beef ramen, a few side dishes, and enough meat buns. She watched them snore and finish them as quickly as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Dad handed the money to grandma, "The food is 1,240 kilograms, and the money is 620 yuan, here it is."

"Wow! I made so much in one day." Sun Youxin exclaimed happily. At that time, they also knew how much they could sell for at that price, but they didn't get it, so they didn't see the shock of it.

"This is almost my two years' salary." The driver also helped sell it, but after collecting the money, he didn't have time to count, and he didn't expect so much money.

"Haha..." Is this too much? That's not compared to her Nannan family. Grandma doesn't think the money is much now. She is very happy to see that they have worked hard to make money.

"As agreed in the evening, the driver is 60," grandma first took out the money and handed it to the driver. After the driver took it, he said hello to grandma and the others and left. He knew that the rest was for others to share the money, and he was not suitable here.

.[

Dad sent him away and only waited until the car disappeared from sight before going back.

When my father came back, my grandma said: "For the remaining 560 yuan, we will split 30-70, Dachengzi will split 70, and we will split 3." Grandma had discussed this decision with Fang Monan in advance.

"This... didn't we agree to share it equally? You gave us the seeds, and it's not hard to grow vegetables, so you can give us so much." Dachengzi waved his hand and said.

"Okay, take it. Go back quickly and distribute the money to everyone. Don't worry anyone. Since you have signed a contract with others, then go back and fertilize the ground so that the vegetable seedlings can grow as quickly as possible." Grandma handed the money to them.

He urged them to go back quickly. "If you don't take it, don't think about taking seeds from me in the future." He threatened them. Originally, it was almost a business for grandma and the others. Of course, the seeds are the most common ones to buy in the market.

of.

Dachengzi and the others took it, said hello to grandma and were about to go home. The family probably couldn't wait any longer, so grandma didn't stop them.

Next, grandma took them to pick some vegetables from the field in her backyard, and then packed them up, and asked her aunt to send some of these vegetables to the county magistrate, principal, police, etc. in order to treat them.

Said these are rare things, try something new.

You can eat the rest as you like. Grandma still kept some, and Fang Monan knew that it was for her uncle. Although her uncle's family was not very good, she didn't care much about them because they were just small trinkets.

My son, as long as he doesn't touch the bottom line, it's fine. I see my grandma is very measured and only shows what everyone can see on the surface. When it comes to hidden things in space, grandma doesn't dare to leak them.

The aunt obeyed the order and went over in the afternoon carrying gifts one by one.

As the New Year approaches, there are obviously more second-rate people and gangsters on the street. They also want to get some money to celebrate the New Year!

After Dad and the others came back from selling vegetables in the morning, they were not idle in the afternoon. The Chinese New Year was about to come and they were busy buying new year's goods. In the evening, only Fang Monan and grandma were left sitting at the door of the house selling steamed buns. Two arrogant old men came to the stall.

The boy was in his twenties, with long hair, thin clothes, even patches, his hands and feet were shrinking, and his nose was sniffing.

"Old lady, Chinese New Year is coming soon, business is good!..." One of them had a hoarse voice, his face always tilted upward when he spoke, and his feet would touch the ground from time to time.

"What do you want to do?" Grandma couldn't get used to their sloppy and slovenly appearance, so she looked at them warily and pulled Fang Monan behind her.

"Nothing? Lend me some money to spend." Seeing her look, the two of them took out their daggers and stated their intention simply.

This is an open robbery! In order to lose money and eliminate disaster, and the little granddaughter is here, I went to this level first. After talking, grandma said: "Don't be excited, the money is here." She handed over the cardboard box for collecting the money.

Fang Monan hid behind his grandma, holding apple seeds in his hand. Before he could teach these two ignorant guys a lesson with his fingering skills, he was interrupted by a loud shout.

"Good dog, don't block the road, let's go and cool off." Liang Zi just came back from selling radios in the city, but he didn't expect to meet a guy with no eyes. He was furious and looked at them up and down with squinting eyes, "I haven't been back for a few days.

The world has changed. Why do cats and dogs dare to hang out on this street?"

"If you are a bit of a loser, bullying old people and children is nothing!" Liang Zi looked at them with disdain and said.

"Who are you? Why are you here to pretend to be a fool? Just stay there and don't hinder me from making a fortune." One of them shouted at Liang Zi.

"Liang Zi is back. He has been out for a few days. Come on, come home. It's very cold outside." Grandma said happily when she saw him. She knew that Liang Zi, a prodigal son, would not be able to exchange money for his return, and he had started a small business and his business was pretty good. She felt sorry for him in her heart.

The Liang family girl is happy.

"Aunt Mo, it's okay. I'll get rid of these two blind guys first." Liang Zi smiled at his grandma. Then he turned to glare at the two of them with a cold tone and his eyes were like knives. "Yeah.

Don’t you see this is where they go wild?”
