Everyone has arrived, and they originally planned to pick up one idol, but unexpectedly they met another idol. The two idols were actually a couple. Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt that today was really her lucky day, and she diligently guided the two of them, thinking Take the two of them to the hotel where the chairman has reserved a stay for the idol couple.
"Don't be in a hurry to go to the hotel. Come on, this is for you."
Beishan Xingyi first took a few people to a secluded place. She had traveled to the Central Plains of Japan countless times, and she was much more familiar with the surrounding situation than Yan Kai and the others.
After seeing only a shady place with few people, Beishan Xingyi opened the box in his hand as if offering a treasure. Inside the half-meter-square box were four pink peaches still stained with water drops.
"Goo!"
This pink peach was so tempting that Kasumigaoka Shiu and Busujima Saeko subconsciously swallowed their saliva after seeing it. Eve was short and couldn't see clearly what was in the box, so she stood on tiptoes to peek into the box.
"Give!"
Eve struggled to stand on her tiptoes, but before she could see clearly what was inside the box, one hand took out the peach from the box and handed it to Eve.
The owner of the hand has a bright and sunny smile on his face, which is very different from Yan Kai who always wears a half-smiling smile. It is indeed easy to make people like him.
"Thank you uncle (Ogisan)!"
Eve thanked Xue Wenhai.
The peach was a bit big, and Eve could only hold it with her two small hands, but she felt a familiar feeling after holding it.
It was soft and heavy. Just by holding it, her fingers sank in under the action of gravity. Eve even felt that what she was holding was not a peach, but a balloon filled with water.
She had felt this feeling before, not on herself, of course, but on her sister and Ryoko-san.
Eve, who often slept with the two, often felt this softness and, well, hugeness somewhere on their bodies.
Kitayama Xingyi raised the box in his hand, and the remaining three peaches jumped up slightly and flew towards Yan Kai, Kasumigaoka Shiu, and Busujima Saeko respectively.
Yan Kai and Busujima Saeko both had martial arts skills and easily caught the flying peach, but Kasumigaoka Shiu, who had weak motor nerves and poor dynamic vision, was confused by the sudden flying object, but her panic was unnecessary. The huge peach suddenly paused in the air when it flew in front of her, giving Kasumigaoka Shiyu enough time to react and allow her to catch this sudden accident calmly.
The peach magically fell after she stretched out her hand. Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't figure out the reason, so she could only recite "Martial Arts Niubi" silently in her heart, and then bowed and thanked Kitayama Xingyi who gave her the peach.
The bow is only fifteen degrees, and I think of Yan Kai's strange operation of forcing Busujima Saeko's ninety-degree bow to forty-five degrees, and Kitayama Xingyi's bizarre behavior of holding down Busujima Saeko's bow with her hand, Kasumigaoka Shiyu knew that everyone in this family didn't like to be bowed, but it was impossible not to express gratitude, so she only bowed fifteen degrees.
Starting with Taozi, the soft feeling seemed familiar. The more Kasumigaoka Shiyu looked at it, the more it seemed like the "Lake View Honeydew" that Yan Kai had just mentioned.
Before Kasumigaoka Shiyu could think about it, Kitayama Xingyi's words confirmed her thoughts: "I know that at this time in previous years, my brother-in-law would get some 'Lake View Honeydew' for you to try, Xiaokai. This year you are in Japan. , it's not convenient for my brother-in-law to come over, so Ah Hai and I took it upon ourselves to bring you some 'Lakeview Honeydew'. It's not easy to find these peaches that take time to mature, and you have to work non-stop after picking them. I had to catch my flight, and although something happened on the way and the flight was delayed for some time, I was lucky enough to bring these peaches within the best tasting time!"
These peaches are indeed the "Lake View Honeydew" that Yan Kai mentioned before. Kitayama Xingyi said it simply, but Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't believe that the two of them put these four "Lake View Honeydew" in order to be able to taste the peaches during the best time. It must have taken a lot of effort to deliver "Jingmilu". Although this peach is light... well, it is not light either, at least half a catty, but the friendship behind this peach is definitely a thousand times heavier than its own weight.
Holding "Lake View Honeydew" on her body, the unique fruity aroma of peaches stimulated Kasumigaoka Shiyu, but because Yan Kai's uncle and aunt brought it specially for Yan Kai, she was embarrassed to eat it.
Yan Kai was also holding peaches in his hands, and his big glasses covered most of his face. No one could see his specific expression. He was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Eat them all, don't miss it." I don’t like to eat too much of the same thing at once.”
Yan Kai spoke, and Xue Wenhai handed over a straw at the right time. Yan Kai gave him a sideways look. Although he could still suck the juice from the peach without a straw, he still took the straw and said Thanks.
The three people who ate "Lake View Honeydew" for the first time imitated Yan Kai's look and gently pierced the straw into the peach. Kasumigaoka Shiyu used a little more force. As soon as she got used to it, juice gushed out along the straw. When he came out, Kasumigaoka Shiyu was so frightened that he hurriedly picked it up with his mouth.
So sweet!
As soon as the sweet juice entered his mouth, Kasumigaoka Shiyu knew why Yan Kaixi suddenly thought of this peach, and felt sorry for not being able to eat it. This kind of sweetness that makes every cell in the body emit joy, damn it, if it happens in the future What should I do if I can’t eat? This kind of peach must be very expensive, right? Does one cost tens of thousands of yen? And it is only sold in the Central Plains. Should I take a special flight to the Central Plains to eat it in the future? What to do? What to do? What to do?
After "eating" this peach, Kasumigaoka Shiyu's thoughts completely flew to an unknown place.
Busujima Saeko and Eve were not much better. Their willpower was stronger than Kasumigaoka Shiu's, but they could only look less embarrassed in front of the sweetness of "Lake View Honeydew". Busujima Saeko found out shamefully, When she was "eating" the peach, her toes actually curled up, and Eve's hair was curly. If Yan Kai hadn't blocked it in front of her at the right time, she would have been almost exposed.
The only one who was sane among the four was Yan Kai. He slowly sucked up the "Lake View Honeydew" until only a layer of peel and peach core remained. Although his face was still expressionless, he was deeply moved by the emotions of Xue Wenhai and his wife. But it seemed to be getting better, and the faint feeling of resistance had disappeared.
After the remaining three people finished eating the peaches, the group could finally get on the road and rush to the hotel. On the way, Kasumigaoka Shiyu gently pulled the corner of Yan Kai's clothes and asked Yan Kai in a low voice: "Junior, these peaches are very expensive, aren't they? I feel very embarrassed to eat such expensive things from Senior Xin and Senior Sister Hengshan as soon as we met!"
Although this peach should have been specially brought to Yan Kai, and she and Saeko had only benefited from it, Kasumigaoka Shiyu still felt that she should repay Xue Wenhai and his wife, otherwise she would feel bad.
"Hmm..." Yan Kai pondered. Although he had eaten "Lakeview Honeydew" many times, he really didn't know the price. After all, he had only eaten it and never paid for it.
"It's not expensive. An ordinary box of twelve is about two hundred. We went to the orchard to pick them directly. Because it was recommended by a friend, they didn't charge us more. These four are all special grade, and one of them costs just $200." Just charge us twenty-five.”
Kitayama Xingyi had sharp ears and smiled when she heard Kasumigaoka Shiyu's words and answered her.
"How much? Twenty-five? U.S. dollars?"
Kasumigaoka Shiu didn't quite believe the price. The quality of such a good peach was even better than the Shimizu white peaches she had eaten before. How much does a Shimizu white peach cost? One would cost close to ten thousand or even tens of thousands of yen, converted into U.S. dollars. At over ninety US dollars, how come "Lakeview Honeydew" is so much cheaper than Qingshui White Peach?
Kitayama Xingyi smiled after listening to Kasumigaoka Shiyu's words: "U.S. dollars? Junior sister, you look very smart, why do you say such stupid things? When buying things in the Central Plains, of course you buy them with Chinese currency, and twenty-five is of course also Chinese currency. La!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu's mind was shaken, and he began to recall the exchange rate between the Central Plains and Japan currencies. Twenty-five Chinese yen, wasn't that just over 400 yen? This... this... this...
Let alone Kasumigaoka Shiu, even ordinary people can eat whatever they want, right?
"Why is it so cheap!"
Kasumigaoka Shiu made an incredible sound.
"This is already expensive! Ordinary peaches... well, I remember how much they cost. Ah Hai, how many yuan does it cost per pound?"
Beishan Xingyi didn't take it seriously. To be honest, when she first arrived in the Central Plains, she was shocked by the extremely cheap fruit prices in the Central Plains. But after staying for a long time, she got used to it, but she still understood what she just said. The impact on Shiyu Kasumigaoka.
"I didn't remember it. Anyway, I saw that the other people who brought a big bag didn't pay more than fifty when they checked out." Xue Wenhai shook his head and said that he didn't look at the unit price when buying fruit. He just bought it and he didn't have any money. .
This time, not only Kasumigaoka Shiu, but Busujima Saeko and Eve were also upset.
Busujima Saeko's family is famous for swordsmanship. Although she lives a simple life, she is honing herself, so she doesn't have much pocket money, but there is a dedicated person in charge of food and clothing. If you want anything, just tell them. Okay, of course someone will prepare it for her, but it won’t work if it’s too extravagant and excessive. For example, if she wants to eat clear water white peaches every day, she will definitely be reprimanded by her father.
The same goes for Eve. Rich woman Mikado Ryoko is not a person who pursues a luxurious life. She wants to live a comfortable life. Her life is already very good now. She has no intention of making more changes. Japanese fruits are super expensive. Men Liangzi only tasted it briefly and would not eat fruits as food, but now it seems that eating fruits as food is a very common thing in the Central Plains.
"hateful……"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu gritted his teeth and said: "The farmers' cooperative who killed a thousand swords must not die a good death!"
As for the reason why fruit prices in Japan remain high, most of the blame can be attributed to the Japanese Agricultural Cooperatives.
Due to geographical and environmental factors, agriculture in Japan is bound to be much more difficult than in countries such as the Central Plains, which have much superior geographical conditions. Even if the Japanese people try their best to endure hardships and strive hard, they will still end up in this unideal land. We have grown excellent agricultural products, but the inputs and costs cannot be compared with other countries. So what should we do? Of course the cost is passed on to other people in Japan, needless to say!
Therefore, under the leadership of the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative, the prices of vegetables and fruits in Japan are all very high. If anyone wants to sell vegetables and fruits at a lower price without going through the hands of the Agricultural Cooperative... Haha, the end will definitely be as miserable as it is. Some of the methods of the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative are worse than the Japanese underworld. No farmer can oppose the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative.
Of course, the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative is overbearing, but it does help Japanese farmers generate income and brings a lot of conveniences and benefits to Japanese farmers. But in the final analysis, aren't the incomes of Japanese farmers still extracted from other people in Japan?
The farmers in Japan benefited, and they were grateful to the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative, but they did not think any good of others. And the Japanese government, coveting the huge number of votes controlled by the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative, obeyed the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative's orders, making the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative It is obviously just a non-governmental organization, but it can influence Japan's politics to a certain extent.
The prices of Japanese local vegetables and fruits are high, and their market competitiveness is definitely not as good as that of foreign imported vegetables and fruits, but it doesn’t matter, the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative can play rogue.
Under the instruction of the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative, Japan set very high tariffs on imported fruits and vegetables, making the prices of imported vegetables and fruits not only not lower than local ones, but also slightly higher.
Of course, the freshness of vegetables and fruits shipped from foreign countries is not as good as local vegetables and fruits. For vegetables and fruits, freshness is a very important quality indicator. The freshness is not as good as local vegetables and fruits. This makes many Japanese people's vegetables and fruits... The local ones from Japan are good, but the imported ones are not.
It’s expensive and bad. The Japanese people will eventually choose, of course, only local vegetables and fruits.
The Japanese Agricultural Cooperative just watched all this with a smile, and then made a lot of money. The Japanese government pretended to be coerced by the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative to show its innocence, while licking its thumbs and counting the consequences of unreasonable tariffs. income.
The Japanese government collects the tariffs, and the Japanese Agricultural Cooperatives receive less than a cent, but the infamy is brought by the Japanese Agricultural Cooperatives. The Japanese government is embarrassed on the surface, but it may not be happy to criticize behind its back.
Bah, they are collaborating and colluding with each other!
Kasumigaoka Shiyu knows all this, and she is not the only one who knows it, many knowledgeable people also know it, but what's the use?
Not to mention Kasumigaoka Shiu, a new and light novel writer who speaks very little, even those national-level novel writers who are deeply loved by the general public, many of the suggestions they put forward, the Japanese government "sincerely apologizes and will never change it." The government is so messed up that unless it comes from the top, it will be extremely difficult to get it to carry out reforms and changes on its own initiative.
In the past, Kasumigaoka Shiyu only knew that due to the Agricultural Cooperative, the tariffs on fruits imported into Japan were set very high, but she never knew that fruits from the Central Plains could be so cheap! It’s so cheap that it’s like picking it up for free!
But Kasumigaoka Shiyu quickly figured it out. She really couldn't change Japan or change the price of Japanese fruits, but she could go to the Central Plains!
There is a strange provision in the Japanese tax law, that is, as long as the taxpayer does not live in Japan for a long time, he does not have to pay taxes. The reason why is because he cannot find someone, and the people from the tax bureau cannot go abroad to find someone to pay taxes. So there is no need to pay taxes.
Thanks to this weird rule, many well-known writers in Japan want to avoid taxes... Of course, you can't say it directly. In short, they live overseas for various reasons all year round, so that they can pay a lot less tax. World-class well-known mystery novel writers Kudo Yusaku is an example of this. He hides abroad all year round and rarely returns home once a year. He is so cruel that he even leaves his underage son in Japan and lets him live alone without fear of anything happening to him.
There is such a model. After becoming famous, running out of Japan has become something that many writers will do. Originally, Kasumigaoka Shiyu didn't think much about it. After all, she was still young and not very famous. Some were slightly famous. I also got it by taking advantage of the "charlatans", and I am not tough. It would be too inflated to think about things that only famous writers would think about now.
But today, now, she has decided that after she becomes famous, she must leave this ghost place in Japan. She will go to the Central Plains, where she can eat "Lake View Honeydew" in mid- to late July. She was so stuffed with "Lake View Honeydew" in the Central Plains, she didn't want to live in Japan where even a clear water white peach cost tens of thousands of yen!
Writing novels in the Central Plains and publishing them in Japan, making money in Japan and spending them in the Central Plains, her future life will definitely be rosy!
Kasumigaoka Shiyu secretly planned in her heart.
By the way, Dad has been doing a lot of business in Zhongyuan recently. I heard that the company has a cooperative relationship with a large group called "Shanhai Group" in Hudu, Zhongyuan. As the main person in charge of related business, he has half of the business in a month. Months are spent traveling between Shanghai and Tokyo. Otherwise, let dad apply to stay in Shanghai, and then bring mom and her, and the three of them will settle down in the Central Plains. This will not only make it easier for dad to work, but also allow the family to reunite. .
Kasumigaoka Shiyu's heart flew farther and farther, wishing she could fly to the Central Plains now.
Just one "Lakeview Honeydew" was not enough, she wanted to eat more, more...
