Xu Yin thought for a while and said: "You have taken good care of my family, but my ability is limited at present and I can't help much. Otherwise, when will your big cherries be picked? I will bring a few kilograms of samples over there. If my friend is there If you want, your home can have multiple sales outlets.”
The village chief was really pleasantly surprised now. He almost jumped up like a child at his age, and his voice trembled with excitement: "Is it convenient?"
"Pick up a few pounds along the way and ask if there's any inconvenience. I can't guarantee whether you'll accept it or not."
"Okay, okay, when are you leaving? I'll prepare it for you in advance. Regardless of whether this happens or not, I'll thank you."
Xu Yin wanted to go there tomorrow.
The closer we get to June, the faster the cherries ripen.
Don't look at it. When I picked it today, there was not much ripeness on each tree. It took me a long time to get enough to send to my classmates. But wait and see tomorrow, each tree can be ripe at least one or two pounds.
Even if it's only one or two kilograms, it's no problem to get 500 kilograms from three hundred trees.
So she rented the truck today and planned to set off after picking it tomorrow. She was not afraid to leave at night. At worst, she would arrive in Anshi in the middle of the night, and it would be convenient for the fruit supermarket to deliver the goods the next morning.
The village chief went home with the good news and promised to deliver it tomorrow.
Although his large cherries are not yet fully ripe, you can get a few kilograms of samples at any cost.
After the village chief left, Xu's father said to his daughter: "If you are in trouble, don't show off. Although the village chief helps us a lot on weekdays, business is business. Cherries are not like other fruits and cannot be grown. If you We promised to help them sell it, but they couldn't sell it back, but they were harming them."
Xu's father was really afraid that his daughter would make her look fat and make her look fat, so he insisted on hugging her because he was obviously incapable of doing so.
Xu Yin smiled and said: "Dad, am I that stupid? I agreed to help them sell it before I found a good market. I just brought some samples to show to Boss Chen's friends. It doesn't matter if they are willing to accept it or not. , I will definitely give the village chief an answer before tomorrow night."
"That's fine, do what you can, don't try too hard."
Xu Yin nodded to show that she knew.
The next day, the family of three got up early because they had to deliver goods to Anshi and pick five hundred kilograms.
Of course, this morning is for Xu Yin.
During the cherry picking season, the Xu family got up every day before the chickens crow, and went up the mountain at dawn. Xu's father was responsible for climbing the ladder to pick the high places, and Xu's mother picked the low places.
The couple was originally good at farm work, and after so many years, they have perfected their efficiency.
For lunch, sometimes it was dry food brought in the morning, and sometimes Xu's mother trotted home and cooked it, then went up the mountain and ate it with Xu's father. He didn’t take a break after eating and continued picking without stopping.
During the busiest period, I had to pick as many stars as I could before calling it a day.
At the end of the day, there were almost fifteen or six hours on the mountain. Otherwise, how could the two of them have harvested eight or nine thousand kilograms?
In order to save a sum of wages for employees, the couple worked hard for their lives.
Today they have a daughter, and the couple's mental attributes are full, and they work like a fast-paced robot arm.
"Yinyin, you pick it slowly. Your mother and I are used to picking it. It's only five hundred kilograms. I'll definitely finish it today."
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, it's okay to pick tomorrow if you can't finish picking. Boss Chen didn't rush me, just send it out when you finish picking."
Besides, she was not slow either, but because she had to screen some of them, some of them were still raw and she needed to wait a few more days, which reduced her efficiency.
The picked cherries are placed in a bamboo basket, and the bottom of the basket is lined with cherry leaves that have been soaked in spiritual mist. Pick a batch and place them on a layer, which should be able to lock in the freshness of the cherries.
Just when Xu Yin's family was putting in the harvest, the village chief came up with his son and daughters-in-law to help.
Five hundred kilograms is not a small amount, and they are small cherries. It depends on a family of three to pick them by themselves, so they have to pick them as long as they want.
"I can't do this. It's too hard on you."
"Mingkang, you are too foreign. Our two families are both named Xu. We may be related for several generations. Besides, our cherries are not yet in the picking period. There is no work for the time being. Why don't you come over and help?"
"That's right, Brother Mingkang, just feel free to pick it. We'll take care of this one. Don't worry, I'll pick it with care and never damage one."
With the participation of the village chief and his family, efficiency has increased steadily.
The original plan was to get 500 kilograms before dark, but now they were picked out before noon.
This means there is strength in numbers.
A group of people carried the cherry basket down the mountain and put it on the cart.
Xu Yin said that now that she has picked it, she will set off now.
The village chief sent his youngest son home to bring over five kilograms of large cherry samples.
Xu Laowu ran very fast.
"Lao Wu, what are you doing? Look at your sweating profusely. Aren't your cherries not in the picking season yet?"
"Nothing, nothing."
Xu Laowu is also a shrewd person. The matter with Xu Yin has not been completed yet, so he will not tell anyone about it.
But when the Xu Yin family carried so many baskets of cherries down the mountain, someone in the village would always see them, and they would inevitably come up and ask a few questions.
Father Xu no longer hid it. After all, the five hundred kilograms had been sold. It was the way his daughter found it. He was proud of it.
As a result, everyone in the village soon knew:
"Xu Mingkang's cherries were sold to Anshi by his daughter!"
"Mingkang's daughter is quite capable!"
"I would say that college students are somewhat capable. The more they read, the more they are smart."
Wang Cuihua: "..."
What a college student! Damn you can't read!
That girl Xu Yin is not good at studying. She has been vain and fond of dressing up since she was a child. Her family conditions are obviously very average, and she always wears famous brands.
I heard from Shanshan that she also asked her former classmates to borrow money, so maybe she was trying to make a fool of herself this time.
Just look at it, Ming Kang and his wife will be tricked to death by their daughter sooner or later.
…
Xu Yin didn't care what the villagers thought of her. She took a shower at home and changed into clean clothes.
Xu's mother took advantage of this time to cook a bowl of vegetable and egg noodles for her.
It's three to four hundred kilometers from Wenxian County to Anshi. Even though the whole journey is connected by expressway, it still takes more than three hours to drive. How can we not eat well?
When Xu Laowu came to deliver the cherry samples, he had to ask his mother to bring him a small piece of beef shank that had just been marinated in the morning, saying it was for Xu Yin to eat. It took a long time to drive, which was really hard.
Xu's mother thought about how hard it was for her daughter, so she did not refuse: "Lao Wu, these are the snacks that Yinyin brought from Anshi. You can take them back to your children at home."
She sent back a box of Anshi specialties, then cut the beef into thin slices and spread it on the cooked noodles.
There were meat, eggs, and home-grown vegetables. Xu Yin was very satisfied with the food.
Without delay after eating, he started the small truck and set off for Anshi carrying 500 kilograms of small cherries, plus samples of large cherries from the village chief's house.
Of course, the moment the car door closed, she put the cherries into the system warehouse and drove the empty car on the highway, saving worry and fuel.
