I became a farmer in the apocalypse.
Chapter 75 Sweet Big Strawberry
Jiang Li returned to the vegetable garden, watered and fertilized the cracked soil, and planted the remaining strawberries. Soon, Jiang Li saw strawberries the size of peaches growing.
They emerged one by one from the leaves, and soon, each strawberry plant was covered with many round, brightly colored strawberries, about the size of peaches.
perfect!
Jiang Li put down her hoe and ran over, picked a strawberry, and held it in her palm. The rich strawberry aroma hit her nose, and the strawberry was completely red, radiating luster and fragrance.
Before I even tasted it, I could smell the sweetness in the air.
It has such a rich flavor.
Jiang Li couldn't resist, so she wiped the big strawberry in her hand clean and took a bite.
Wow!
A sweet aroma exploded in her mouth. Jiang Li had never eaten such sweet strawberries before, not even before the apocalypse. It wasn't the sweetness of industrial saccharin, but the sweetness of highly concentrated strawberry juice.
"What does it smell like? It smells so good!"
As Jiang Yan was working, a sweet aroma suddenly wafted from the vegetable garden.
He walked over curiously, and the closer he got, the stronger the fragrance became.
When he saw the incredibly beautiful red strawberries hanging on the green plants in the vegetable garden, his eyes widened instantly. Looking at Jiang Li, he saw that she was holding a large strawberry, which she had already eaten half of.
"Sis, why are you like this? You didn't even invite me to come and eat."
Jiang Yan quickly ran over, curiously picked a strawberry, and eagerly took a bite.
That one bite sent me straight to heaven.
Jiang Yan's eyes widened instantly, his face filled with disbelief. "So...so sweet!"
Then it felt like I was surrounded by strawberry bubbles, jumping into a strawberry ocean, with the air and my mouth filled with the sweet smell of strawberries.
So happy.
Jiang Yan was completely dizzy from eating.
Jiang Li looked at him and patted him awake, "Alright, hurry up and eat, then get back to work."
Jiang Yan nodded, carefully finished the strawberry, smacked his lips, and savored the taste.
It's so delicious!
Jiang Li picked a strawberry and placed it on the small scale.
150g!
Before the apocalypse, a strawberry weighed only 15-30g, while a premium-grade strawberry could weigh 30-50g.
And each of these strawberries weighs a whopping 150g! No wonder they look as big as peaches.
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Yan, "Do you know how many points you just consumed?"
"How many?"
"66 points!"
"What?"
Jiang Yan's eyes widened.
Just that one strawberry? 66 points?
Jiang Li nodded. "Strawberries sell for 220 points per jin in the safe zone. Each strawberry weighs 150g, so that's 66 points per strawberry, right?"
"My God!" Jiang Yan was stunned.
Unexpectedly, one day he was also able to eat well.
Jiang Li counted them; there were a total of 35 non-mutated strawberry plants, each with seven or eight large strawberries. They were all forced to grow and harvested today. Each large strawberry weighed 150g, so the total weight would probably be around 70 jin (35 catties).
Get rich!
Jiang Li brought over two wooden crates, lined each compartment with leaves, and together with Jiang Yan, they hurried to pick the fruit.
Lin An arrived shortly afterward. When he saw the huge and beautiful strawberries in the box, he couldn't help but be surprised and swallowed hard.
It looks delicious.
Moreover, the aroma of the strawberries in this field is almost intoxicating.
Is this the charm of growing vegetables?
"You should try some too." Jiang Li gave her one.
Lin An took it and held it in his hand; it felt heavy.
Take a bite.
Wow!
He showed the same expression as Jiang Li had just done.
Oh no! I ate them too early! I should have saved them for later. These delicious strawberries were eaten so easily. If I'm going to eat them, I should at least eat them in front of everyone.
Jiang Li noticed that she froze after taking a bite and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Doesn't it taste good?"
"Delicious." Lin An nodded. "I haven't eaten strawberries since the apocalypse. These strawberries are so delicious, I almost don't want to eat them."
"Then you eat this, and I'll give you another one."
Jiang Li gave her another one.
Lin An was taken aback, then overjoyed.
"It's so kind of you."
She happily finished the strawberry she hadn't eaten, then put the other one in her pocket. "Let me pick strawberries for you."
"it is good."
The three of them quickly picked and sorted the strawberries.
The wooden crates were just filled. To be on the safe side, Jiang Li stacked each crate four times to avoid crushing them.
"Sister, this box probably won't fit on the bus," Jiang Yan said. "The driver was saying yesterday that I always carry too much cargo, which is crowding the aisle and affecting other passengers."
This box is much larger; it won't even fit in the aisle.
"No problem," Lin An said. "I have a solution."
After saying those words, she was gone.
Jiang Li didn't even have a chance to ask her a question before she disappeared from sight.
Fast is good; it's gone in an instant.
Not long after, a horn suddenly sounded from the driveway not far away.
When Jiang Li looked, she was surprised to see that Lin An had actually brought their unit's military off-road vehicle.
"Won't your Captain Lu scold you for doing this?" Jiang Li asked.
Lin An: "Anyway, we don't have any missions right now, and the car's just sitting there. But he said we'll have to pay for the gas ourselves. Are you okay with that?"
Jiang Li is definitely fine with it.
They have quite a lot of things to take to the safe zone today.
Two boxes of strawberries weighing over 70 jin (approximately 35 kg), plus 110 jin (approximately 55 catties) of large tomatoes picked yesterday but not yet sold, and the remaining 20 jin (approximately 10 catties) of large potatoes.
The volume of goods is increasing so much that manual transportation is no longer feasible; we need to buy a vehicle.
Jiang Li thought Lin An and the others' SUV was pretty good; the trunk was huge, and if they weren't carrying that many people, the back row of seats could be removed and used specifically for transporting vegetables.
"Lin An, how many points would it cost to buy a car like yours?"
Lin An: "This is a military vehicle, and it can only be purchased in the name of the military. Individuals cannot buy it. However, there are similar models on the market. They look similar, but the configuration may not be as good as this one. You can go to the market and take a look. I remember I saw one before that cost 23 points."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan excitedly asked Jiang Li, "Sister, can we afford it?"
Jiang Li shook her head, "I can't afford it."
Oh my god! Help! I can't afford anything!
Jiang Li roared inwardly for a while, then calmed down.
It's okay, she'll be able to afford it after selling vegetables for a few more days.
……
"Over here!"
When Liu Qing brought Wei Zhou to the market street, they saw Li Tianlei waving at them from afar.
"Great! Mom, let's go quickly, Uncle Li has already saved a spot for us."
Wei Zhou and Liu Qing exchanged a glance, then happily carried the bag of potatoes over.
Just as Liu Qing and her companion put the potatoes on the stall, a young man suddenly rushed over.
"I've finally found you! I want to buy big potatoes! Give me a big potato!"
Liu Qing remembered that it was a guest from yesterday.
She quickly replied, "Pick whatever you like."
The young man quickly picked out two, smiling broadly, "Boss! These big potatoes you sell are really delicious! I bought one yesterday, and my wife and kids loved them!"
Liu Qing smiled.
She also felt that such delicious potatoes couldn't possibly go unsold.
After the young man left, a woman also hurriedly came looking for him.
"Thank goodness we found it! I was worried you wouldn't come today."
