The leisurely life of rebirth.

Chapter 26 Greenhouse Vegetables

A few more days passed by, and two days before the new year, Dachengzi drove over on a silly black and thick bicycle. It was a very old bicycle, and the black paint on the bicycle was mottled and peeled off, except for the bell that should have rang. No sound, other places are "clang, clang".

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the "greenhouse vegetables" in Dachengzi's house can also be harvested.Where to sell is a problem, but today he came here to ask, where is the right place to sell.

In the warm room, everyone sat around together, and Da Chengzi threw out the question.

"Go to our county town 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." My aunt first refused, and they knew nothing about the consumption level in the county. [

"No, I went to the village to see it. It seems that there will be a lot of harvest, and I guess it will be pulled by a car." Da Chengzi looked at the growth of his own vegetables, and then went around the village. We can use the harvest as an example. "If you use a car, if it's sold cheaply, it's definitely not suitable."

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

"How much does it cost per catty to keep the capital! Although you gave the seedlings, you can't let you give them for free! Everyone said that after earning money, two ones will be added to five, and they will be divided equally." Da Chengzi honestly Said bluntly, they have discussed these things at home, the 'greenhouse' is learned from others, the vegetable seeds are also given by others, and even the skills have to be taught by tutors, so they can't take it for nothing!

"If we sell it in the provincial capital, it will take nearly three hours to go back and forth, and we have to pay for the car rental and gas. The price should be set as high as appropriate." Mr. Lin said.

"At least fifty cents a catty." Fang Monan interrupted suddenly.

"What, why don't you grab it directly!" Auntie stared at her and said, it's too dark!

"It's too high, and it won't be sold. If it's only a few cents a catty in summer." Dachengzi was a little scared by her price.

"High, not high at all. Nannan was really wrong this time. You also said that the price is summer. Can I eat these green leafy vegetables this winter? Rare things are expensive, and we are exclusive. I I think the order is too low." Mr. Lin said clearly.She gave Fang Monan a meaningful look, and the word 'Mongolian' covered her up a bit.She quickly covered her mouth, made a gesture of 'kneeling and thanking', and said no more.

Mr. Lin smiled, and continued: "Yes! I think it's okay. Zhengping just came back from the provincial capital, so he should know something about their consumption. What do you think?"

"The old man is right, let's go to the provincial capital to sell." Dad supported, but the consumption level in the provincial capital is higher than theirs. "I'm looking for a car like this. I have a friend who drives for the grain depot and can help. Da Chengzi, please estimate how many vegetables there are."

"A lot. Originally, the places we planted were all around the front and back of the kitchen, or the heating place. But we took too many seedlings. Later, we planted them in front of and behind the house. As long as there was soil in the yard, we didn't let go. No Considering that they are hardy to the cold, although they are not as good as those in warm places, they are not bad." Da Chengzi touched his head and said honestly. "Like a tomato, the warm part is as big as my fist, and the cold part grows like Nannan's fist; like leeks, the warm one is two bunches long, and the cold one is more than one bunch long." He said. He kept making gestures in his hands.

"Okay, let's figure it out. When will we leave? Let them go home to pick, bundle, and tidy up." Dad said happily when he heard what he said, and the appearance of the vegetables he said might fetch a good price .

"No, there is another problem that cars can't enter the village, and the dirt roads in the countryside are too narrow to drive a car." Da Chengzi thought about it and said again. "What can we do?"

"Hey! It's simple, first transport the vegetables to the county in a mule cart, and then load them into the car." Mr. Lin thought for a while and said. "It just needs to be shipped a few more times."

"En! That's how we do it? By the way, every family weighs the dishes and writes them down. This way, it will be easy to settle accounts." Grandma patted her legs and remembered.

"I'm going home now, put the dishes away, weigh them well, and start delivering them here." Da Chengzi rushed out after finishing speaking.

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

Listening to them discussing when to leave, Fang Monan took Mr. Lin and grandma out and asked them about paints and white cloth.There was a mysterious smile on the corner of her mouth, and they would know when the time came.Mr. Lin had some guesses, but he remained calm.

The day before the new year, Dachengzi pulled the vegetables six times with two mule carts. They said that the vegetables weighed thousands of catties!Then the vegetables were dumped onto the car again, covered with thick canvas and wrapped tightly so as not to be frozen.On the day of Xiaonian, the four of them, the father, the driver, and the two brothers Sun Youcheng, drove to the provincial capital at dawn.Before leaving, Mr. Lin told his father to stuff a cloth bag, told him what was inside, and then carefully told him what to do when he was about to enter the city. [

Due to the delay caused by the fog, the drive was slower than usual. When they entered the provincial capital, it was already past nine o'clock.Parked the car on the side of the road, took out the cloth bag and opened it, two people pulled it apart, inside was a white cloth, on which was painted with paint what they were going to sell vegetables, like the words 'good fortune' under the tomatoes, and under the leeks 'Long, long time', the four of them tied them to the fence of the car together, not even leaving the front of the car, on which was written 'Happy New Year' in black letters on red cloth.

Dad and the others turned around to the main road in the city together, one can imagine what a sensation it was, and then stopped at the side of a vegetable market.

They came down and tore the canvas apart at once. The emerald green color was shining brightly under the sunlight.The fragrance of vegetables teases people's sense of smell. It is too tempting for those who can only eat cabbage, radish and potatoes for a long time.

Immediately, someone came forward to ask, and he hesitated when he heard the price, it is too expensive!Compared with Xia Tian, ​​it is not a star and a half.Dad took the tomatoes and leeks, stood in the car, and shouted loudly: "We are from Yunxian County, this is the 'vegetable' we grow there, this is not the New Year, we wish everyone a New Year in advance. Wish you all a new year Like this tomato, 'the auspicious star shines brightly, good fortune', like this leek, the happy days are 'long and long'."

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

Dad continued: "It's Chinese New Year, aunt, aunt, aunt, big sister, sell them home for the elderly, give them a joy, and change the taste!" More and more people crowded around the car.

The person who asked about the price just now heard what he said, although it is a bit more expensive, after all, we can eat fresh green leafy vegetables in winter.

There was a beginning, but it was much easier later on. Dad shouted loudly to maintain order, and several other people collected money and weighed food.Fortunately, the green leafy vegetables are all bundled and weigh a pound, which speeds up the speed.Cucumbers and tomatoes must be weighed now, slow down, and simply divided into two teams.

Soon a cart of vegetables was almost finished, and I didn't buy the later ones, so I left.They packed up their things and were about to go home, when a middle-aged man trotted to the side of the car. "We're sold out, you're late."

Seeing that he still didn't leave, he bent down and supported his knees with both hands, panting non-stop, Da Chengzi said, "Take a breath before you talk."

The visitor was panting, his forehead was sweating from the cold, he saw the car and chased him all the way, but it was a pity that he was still a step late. "I'm from 'Haoweixian' restaurant. Do you still have vegetables?"

"I'm sorry, we just planted these and brought them all here." Da Chengzi said with a smile. "But we still planted it, and it won't mature until spring."

"Wait a minute" he slowly calmed down his breathing, and after hearing Sun Youcheng's words, he continued: "I mean, in the spring of next year, before these dishes are on the market in large quantities, I can pay for all of them. I want as much as I want, and we can negotiate the price." 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 past eleven o'clock, and people came in one after another. They walked around to the back of the restaurant, and after a simple negotiation, they signed an order.

After the work was done, Dad and the others drove back quickly in the car. At this time, the dense fog had cleared, and they arrived home in an hour.

Grandma saw them coming in, and quickly brought them a big bowl of beef ramen, some side dishes, and enough meat buns.Watching them snoring, finish eating as quickly as the autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves.

Dad handed the money to grandma, "The food is 1240 catties, and the money is 620 yuan. Here it is."

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

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

"Hehe..." Is this called too much?That method is better than her family's Nan Nan.Grandma doesn't think the money is too much now, and she is very happy to see their hard-earned 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 greeted grandma and the others and left. He knew that the rest would be for others to share the money. . [

Dad sent him away, and only went back when the car disappeared from sight.

When Dad came back, grandma said: "For the remaining 560 yuan, we will pay three to seven, Dacheng will give seven, and we will three." Grandma discussed this matter with Fang Monan in advance and made a decision.

"This... didn't we agree to share equally! The seedlings are given by you, and it's easy to grow vegetables, so that can give us so much." Da Chengzi waved his hand and said.

"Okay, take it. Go back quickly and distribute the money to everyone. Don't worry about it. Now that you have signed a contract with them, then go back and fertilize the field so that the vegetable seedlings can grow as soon as possible." Grandma handed over the money to He urged them to go back quickly. "If you don't take it, don't even think about taking seedlings from me in the future." Threatening them, it was almost a business for grandma and the others, and of course seeds are the most common ones bought in the market.

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

Next, grandma took them to pick some vegetables from the field in their backyard, and after packing them, she asked my aunt to give these vegetables to the county magistrate, the principal, the police, etc. in turn. Say these are rare things, try something new.

You can eat and pick the rest as you like, and grandma kept some, and Fang Monan knew it was for the uncle.Although the eldest uncle's family is not doing very well, she doesn't care much about small gadgets. She is always grandma's son, as long as it doesn't touch the bottom line.Seeing that grandma is very measured, she only shows everyone on the bright side, and grandma doesn't dare to disclose the secret things in the space.

My aunt obeyed, and went over in the afternoon carrying presents one by one.

As the new year is approaching, there are obviously more bums and gangsters on the street. They also want to get some money for the new year!

After Dad and the others came back from selling vegetables in the morning, they were not idle in the afternoon, and they were busy buying new year's goods soon as the Chinese New Year was approaching.In the evening, Fang Monan and his grandma were the only ones left at home selling steamed buns at the door, and two big boys came to the stall.In his twenties, with long hair, thin clothes, even patches, shy hands and feet, sniffing nose.

"Old woman, it's almost Chinese New Year, business is going well!..." One of them had a hoarse voice, and when he spoke, his face was always raised upwards, and his feet would touch the ground from time to time.

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

"It's nothing? I'll borrow some money to spend." Seeing her appearance, the two of them took out their daggers and explained their purpose straightforwardly.

This is a steal!In order to save money and eliminate disasters, and my granddaughter is here, I went through this level first and said, "Don't get excited, the money is here." Passed the cardboard box for the money.

Fang Monan hid behind his grandma with an apple seed in his hand, and before he had time to teach these two ignorant guys a lesson, he was interrupted by a loud shout.

"Good dogs don't get in the way, let's go to cool down." Liang Zi just came back from selling radios in the city. He didn't expect to meet a guy with short eyes. He was furious and looked them up and down sideways. The sky can't be changed. How can a cat or a dog dare to hang out on this street."

"You can't do anything well, bullying the elderly and children is nothing!" Liang Zi said disdainfully, squinting at them.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Just stay here and don't hinder me from getting rich." One of them yelled at Liang Zi.

"Liang Zi is back and has been out for a few days. Hurry up, come in, it's very cold outside." Grandma said happily when she saw him, knowing that Liang Zi's prodigal son would not change his money when he returned, and that he started a small business. The sister of the Liang family is happy.

"Aunt Mo, it's okay, I'll get rid of these two bastards first." Liang Zi smiled at his grandma.He turned his head and stared at the two of them fiercely, his tone was cold, and his eyes were like knives. "Don't you see that this is where they ran wild?"
