After the wood spirit root awakens, you will reap what you sow and bring it to the motherland

Chapter 35 Who has nothing better to do than to lie to you?
Before Gu Mingzhu could speak, he said anxiously, "Mingzhu, you have to sell these strawberries to me when the time comes. We can negotiate the price!"

Seeing him so anxious, Gu Mingzhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Boss Zhang, my strawberries have just grown buds, and it's not certain whether they can bear fruit."

Boss Zhang has never doubted her abilities.

He patted his chest and said, "You grow good vegetables, so the strawberries will surely be good too!"

"Let me tell you, fruits are more in demand than vegetables these days! We are old friends. I don't expect you to leave all the strawberries to me, but you should at least leave me some."

Everyone says that these vegetable vendors make money.

But the people who make the most money these days are fruit vendors!

He and Fatty Zhang worked day and night to grab vegetables at the wholesale point, and only earned about 40,000 to 50,000 yuan a day at most.

But those who can get the fruits can easily earn 200,000 or 300,000 yuan a day.

Why?

Because fruits are a rare commodity these days!

Not to mention delicate things like strawberries, even frozen pears that can be kept for several years in the cold storage can now be sold for twenty-five yuan per pound!
Before the end of the world, this thing was sold at five yuan per pound in the north and was still rejected by people.

But now, even at twenty-five yuan a pound, you have to snatch it.

If you are one minute late, you won’t be able to buy it.

If Mingzhu could really reserve some strawberries for him, he would definitely bring his whole family to kowtow to her during the Chinese New Year this year!
"I can't guarantee it," said Gu Mingzhu. "Besides, I didn't plant many in the first batch, just a few hundred plants. I'll go back and take a look. If they really bloom, I'll have to go get the strawberry seedlings in the afternoon."

As soon as she said this, Boss Zhang's eyes lit up even more, "Mingzhu, how about we work together?"

Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows: "How do you want to cooperate?"

"You plant the seedlings. You manage the business, too." Boss Zhang said, "I'll take care of the rest. I'll also pay for anything else."

At this point, he held up two fingers and said, "I'm not greedy. When we make money, we'll split it 20-80! You get 80% and I get 20%. Is that okay?"

He knew very well that even without him, Gu Mingzhu would be able to accomplish this.

Even though she is a little short of money now, she can still build a few more greenhouses if she grits her teeth.

But now I can invest some money and effort to get the shares first.

If the strawberry business is successful, we will never have to worry about food and drink.

We are all smart people, and Gu Mingzhu knows what Boss Zhang is planning.

But she didn't refuse.

She even made two requests on the spot, "I can give you 20% of the profit, but you have to promise me two things."

"You tell me!" Boss Zhang said, "I will do whatever I can do."

"First, you and Fatty must keep it a secret about how many vegetables I sell to you every day. You can't tell anyone."

The number of vegetables in her greenhouse is limited.

If he told the villagers that she sold 10,000 to 20,000 kilograms of vegetables every day, the matter would be unconcealed.

Boss Zhang still doesn't know anything about the system.

He always thought that Gu Mingzhu had a lot of land.

Now listening to Gu Mingzhu's words, he didn't think much about it, "I understand this. It's not easy for a little girl like you to farm. There must be many people in the village who are targeting you."

"Don't worry, I've already told Fatty and the others about this. They all want to make money and don't want to ruin their jobs."

Seeing that he agreed, Gu Mingzhu continued: "Second, you have to find a way to rent 200 acres of land, in bulk. But don't worry, I will pay 80% of the rent." Since they had agreed to be partners, she would not take advantage of anything she shouldn't.

Two hundred acres! ! ?
When Boss Zhang heard this number, his eyes widened. "You want to plant 200 acres of strawberries?"

Gu Mingzhu shook her head. "Not only strawberries, I also want to grow other vegetables and fruits."

Nowadays, most of the vegetables in the space and in her greenhouse are winter vegetables.

But she wanted to grow something else.

For example, eggplant, pepper, cucumber, tomato, peas, corn...

What she wants to grow the most is rice!!
"The colder the weather is, the more difficult it is to grow vegetables outdoors," said Gu Mingzhu. "But with a greenhouse, it's different."

"Let's rent the land first, and when we have more money, we can build a greenhouse. We can plant crops while we're at it, so that we can have something to sell all year round."

Now we can still grow vegetables outdoors all year round.

But what about a few years later?

No one knows whether the weather will become worse in a few years and whether it will be possible to grow vegetables outdoors.

No matter what happens in the future, she has to make comprehensive plans first.

Seeing that she had even considered what would happen several years later, Boss Zhang fell into deep thought for a while.

Finally he said, "Two hundred acres is not a small amount. Let me ask around. If I find it, I'll tell you right away."

After that, he directly transferred 50,000 yuan to Gu Mingzhu as the cost of buying strawberry seedlings and fertilizers.

Gu Mingzhu took the money and went straight back to the village.

When she arrived at the greenhouse, there were already more than a dozen people watching in the strawberry field.

As soon as they saw Gu Mingzhu coming back, everyone surrounded her and started asking questions.

"Mingzhu, how do you grow these strawberries?"

"I heard on the news that since the cold apocalypse began, the strawberries in the country have stopped blooming and bearing fruit! How do you make the strawberries bloom?"

"To be honest, I also bought seedlings last year, but after planting them for a few months, the strawberries slowly died and never bloomed..."

"Mingzhu, I didn't realize that you are not only good at growing vegetables, you can even grow strawberries! You are amazing!"

"You have to teach us!"

"Yes, Mingzhu, we are all in the same team, and we are neighbors. If you have such a way to make money, you must guide us!"

They spoke one after another, and Gu Mingzhu didn't even have a chance to speak.

Finally, Wang Xiulian yelled, "All of you take a break! It's like a machine gun, how is Mingzhu going to answer?"

After she yelled at them, everyone finally quieted down a bit.

Then she added: "I was watching Mingzhu when she was planting these strawberries. It's just like planting vegetables. Just dig a hole, put the strawberries in, cover them with soil, and water them. It's that simple."

Everyone was unconvinced. "We planted them the same way, so why didn't they survive? Are you trying to keep the strawberry planting method to yourself and not let Mingzhu teach us?"

The person who said this was none other than Gu Haiqiang's family.

Seeing her sarcasm, Gu Mingzhu said directly: "Many people in the team have seen what I look like when I grow vegetables. Who would be so bored as to lie to you?"

After being criticized by Gu Mingzhu, Gu Haiqiang's family became a little unhappy.

She curled her lips and said, "Mingzhu, are you unwilling to teach me how to grow strawberries because you are still grudged against me for what happened last time?"
