There are generally two channels for purchasing watermelons in Youcheng County.
One is to go to the fruit wholesale market, which is some distance away from the logistics park on the other side of Youcheng.
The other one works harder by himself to purchase goods from fruit farmers in surrounding villages.
Therefore, at the same wholesale price of 1.5 yuan, the melons are more delicious, and if they are delivered to your door, you are not afraid that no one will want them.
As soon as the news about Qin Lin was sent out, three people appeared in the group.
"It turns out to be Xiao Qin."
"Did Xiao Qin change his career to wholesale?"
"Then I'll join in the fun?"
Qin Lin also knew the three people who sent the message, and they all happened to have shops near Market Street.
Seeing that no one showed up in the group for the time being, Qin Lin made an appointment with these three people to meet in the store.
At this time.
Qin Lin also found that the game screen in his mind showed a reminder that the seeds needed to be watered for the first time.
He immediately controlled the game character with his mind to enter the tool room, took out a watering can, filled it with water by the river, and then watered all the seeds.
After a while, the three people who had made an appointment in the WeChat group came riding on small electric stoves.
Two middle-aged men, Liu Dasheng and Chen Dahe, and a woman named Aiquni.
As soon as Liu Dasheng entered the door, he spoke first: "Xiao Qin, where are your melons? Take a look!"
Qin Lin pointed to a pile of watermelons on the ground and said, "Brother Liu, Brother Chen, Sister Ai, look at these melons."
After hearing this, the three people all went up to take a look.
Having been in this business for a long time, I can naturally tell whether a melon is good or not.
The texture is clear and the depth is distinct...
The melon is still green and very fresh.
Can hear the sound.
These are obviously good melons.
"It looks really good." Liu Dasheng said with a smile.
Chen Dahe and Aiquni also nodded.
However, there are too many unscrupulous wholesalers and fruit growers now, so we still have to open the melons and try them.
Qin Lin naturally understood and said to the three of them, "Three of you, pick any one."
"Xiao Qin, let's take this one!" Liu Dasheng pointed at a watermelon at random.
Qin Lin nodded, picked up the watermelon and cut it in half, revealing the delicious flesh, which made people appetizing at a glance.
Qin Lin cut the two halves of the watermelon into small pieces, and then said to the three of them: "You three, please!"
Liu Dasheng and the other three were not polite, and each picked up a piece of watermelon and started eating it.
"Woof woof!"
The black dog barked again, as if it saw Qin Lin dividing the melons, it crept to the door of the store again.
This is so damn dependent.
Seeing this, Qin Lin casually took another piece of watermelon and threw it to it.
If a dog eats too much watermelon, it will cause diarrhea. Let it experience the dangers of the human heart. Then it will know that it cannot eat this food and will not rely on it.
After a while, Liu Dasheng and the others' eyes widened.
"What a delicious melon. It tastes much better than what I had before."
"Indeed, it's very sweet and juicy."
"Xiao Qin, is it really delivered to your door?"
The three of them all looked at Hu Qing. There was no reason not to buy these melons that looked good and tasted better, at the same wholesale price, and delivered to their door.
Qin Lin explained; "That's natural, it will be delivered to your door."
The three of them nodded and immediately decided to try 30 melons each, leaving the remaining ones for Qin Lin's own store.
The stores of the three of them were not far away, and Qin Lin did not confiscate the deposit, and agreed to pay after the watermelon was delivered to his door.
The reason why he wanted to deliver the goods to his door was of course to keep it secret. Although there was no surveillance camera installed in his store, there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the market street.
He keeps getting watermelons from the store for no reason. This time it's okay. If there are too many, he will definitely pay attention.
After all, if you don’t come in every day, you just go out with watermelons? If you get attention, you might get into big trouble.
Therefore, we must find a private place outside in the future.
After Liu Dasheng and the others left, Qin Lin took a look at the black dog that was still chewing watermelon outside the door. He ignored it and closed the rolling shutter door from the outside. Then he went to the inner area of the Market Street parking lot and walked towards a car with crossbars and handrails. It's a three-wheeled agricultural truck that's full of rust and no one wants it for 2,000 yuan.
However, this car is used to pull goods. As long as the tires don't blow out, it can pull about a ton.
Qin Lin drove the three-wheeled truck to the front of the shop, loaded all the watermelons from the shop into the truck, closed the rolling shutter door of the shop again, and then got in the truck to deliver the melons to Liu Dasheng and the others.
Liu Dasheng's store is the closest to his, both on Market Street, just a short walk away. The store is called Dasheng Fruit Shop.
Liu Dasheng was chatting with a man holding a watermelon at the door. When Qin Lin's three-wheeled truck stopped, he pulled the man forward and said: "Xiao Chen, come and take a look at the melon that was just delivered. It is definitely fresh." Melon, pick one and I’ll cut it open for you to taste.”
"Okay, Brother Liu." Xiao Chen nodded, walked to the car and picked it up.
Liu Dasheng also explained to Qin Lin: "Mr. Qin, this Xiao Chen is my upstairs neighbor and an old customer of mine. He likes to eat watermelons. He will buy a few at a time and we will count them all later."
"Okay." Qin Lin nodded.
Xiao Chen also quickly picked a melon from Qin Lin's car and gave it to Liu Dasheng.
"Xiao Qin, this melon weighs 11 pounds." After Liu Dasheng finished weighing him, he cut it aside and handed a small piece to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen and Liu Dasheng were old acquaintances, so they naturally took it and tasted it.
Soon, Xiao Chen was surprised and said: "Brother Liu, this melon is very sweet and sandy. It is much more delicious than the ones you sold before. What's the price?"
Liu Dasheng smiled and said: "The same price, 2 yuan per catty, how many do you want?"
"Brother Liu, let me pick 4 melons. You can send them to me when you have time." Xiao Chen said, and picked 4 more melons from Qin Lin's car to show off to Liu Dasheng.
The last four melons all weighed over 10 kilograms, and one weighed 47 kilograms.
Liu Dasheng said: "47 pounds, 94 yuan, Xiao Chen, please mark it and I will deliver it to you when you are free."
"There's no need to mark it. I trust Brother Liu and I'll transfer the money to WeChat." Xiao Chen shook his hand and took his mobile phone to transfer money to Liu Dasheng.
After Xiao Chen left, Liu Dasheng called Qin Lin again: "Xiao Qin, it seems that the melons grown by your relatives are really good. Xiao Chen is usually very picky about watermelons."
Qin Lin was naturally happy. He took a basket from Liu Dasheng's shop and started moving melons.
Liu Dasheng sold 4 melons, which equaled more than 70 yuan for him.
Including the previous 5, Qin Lin put 25 in the basket for Liu Dasheng to weigh, and the final total was 287 kilograms. Adding the 47 kilograms bought by Xiao Chen, it was 334 kilograms, and the wholesale price was 501 yuan at 1.5 yuan.
Liu Dasheng also happily forwarded WeChat to Qin Lin.
Qin Lin also issued an invoice to Liu Dasheng, which was related to self-employed households' tax returns.
"Brother Liu, come back to me if you need anything. I'm going to deliver melons to the other two." Qin Lin was all smiles. This amount alone was more profit than what his fruit and vegetable store made in a hard day's work.
Next, Qin Lin gave 30 melons to Chen Dahe and Aiquni respectively.
Chen Dahe's weighs 360 kilograms in total, with a wholesale price of 540 yuan, while Aiquni's weighs 328 kilograms, with a wholesale price of 492 yuan.
Including Liu Dasheng's previous 501 yuan and 90 melons, he earned a total of 1,533 yuan.
When he returned to his shop, Qin Lin unexpectedly found that the black dog was still at the door of his shop, lying on his stomach comfortably without any diarrhea.
This shouldn't be the case.
When the sun completely set, Hu Qing sold 4 more watermelons left in his store. Including the few he sold before, his store also earned 172 yuan.
In this way, the melons taken out of the game earn a net profit of 1,705 yuan.
Qin Lin couldn't help but clenched his fists and wanted to cheer. Just earning 1,705 yuan a day, that's 51,150 yuan a month. Even after tax is deducted, it is definitely a high income in a small place like Youcheng County.
Thinking about it, the game screen in Qin Lin's mind showed another reminder that grass was growing and must be weeded immediately, otherwise the watermelon seedlings that had grown might wither due to the influence of weeds.
After weeding, Qin Lin looked at the time and saw that it was completely dark. He got up and picked out some leftover vegetables to take home. Then he pulled down the rolling shutter door, then went to the parking lot and rode a three-wheeled pickup truck home. .
Under normal circumstances, he needs to drive this small truck to restock goods early every morning to replenish the store's consumption. However, tomorrow he will only use this truck to haul watermelons.
With an income of 1,700 yuan a day, there is no need to adjust to the daily profit from the fruit and vegetable store. Even if the family owes hundreds of thousands, it can be paid off quickly.
Qin Lin rode his bike back to an older community. After his family sold their house, they rented a two-bedroom apartment in this community with low rent.
I walked into a house and went up to the third floor. When I returned to the rented suite, I saw my mother Lin Fen making dinner.
Although the suite has two rooms, it is very narrow and divided into two rooms. With some daily clutter piled up, it makes it even more narrow and dark.
However, the family was in such a situation, and there was hundreds of thousands of foreign debts owed, so there was no way.
Qin Lin walked in and said, "Mom, I told you to prepare the food when I come back."
"My body can't do much work, but it's not like I can't move. Come and eat!" Lin Fen was in poor health and her face didn't look good, but she still had a hint of stubbornness when she spoke.
After working all her life, it was even more uncomfortable for her to do nothing.
"Hey." Qin Lin reluctantly put the vegetables he brought back into the refrigerator.
Lin Fen handed a bowl of rice to Qin Lin and asked, "How is the business in the store today?"
"Well, it's better than yesterday, and it will be better in the future." Qin Lin thought of what happened today and spoke with inexplicable confidence.
When Lin Fen heard her son's usual answer, she sighed and said: "Xiao Lin, it's your parents who are sorry for you. Which of your peers doesn't have parents to help them prepare betrothal gifts and house down payments, but your dad and I gave them You left hundreds of thousands in debt.”
"Mom, what are you talking about? You and dad gave birth to me, raised me, and provided for me to go to school. This is already the greatest favor." Qin Lin has never blamed his parents. After all, he is in good health and has been cared for by his parents since he was a child. His care is already better than that of many others.
The more her son said this, the more useless Lin Fen felt. She could only continue to sigh: "Xiao Lin, how are you and Mo Qing doing recently? Don't blame her parents. Mo Qing is a good girl, and her parents also Our kindness and righteousness have been exhausted. We don’t ask for gifts or cars. We only ask for down payment for a small house and our family can’t afford it. This is our own problem.”
"You and Mo Qing will get along first. When I get better and I can look after the store, you can find a job. We, mother and son, will work hard together to make a down payment for a house. If you and Mo Qing fail to come together in the end, Together, don’t complain!”
When Qin Lin heard this, he stopped eating.
Mo Qing is indeed very good. They were in the same class in high school. Apart from meeting each other on the way to and from school for the entire three years of high school, they actually never said hello. However, because they were admitted to the same university, they bought adjacent seats on the same train. We met officially and slowly got together.
Fate is so wonderful.
He really has no right to blame Mo Qing's parents. Which parent in today's society would want their daughter to marry someone who has no car, no house, and hundreds of thousands in debt?
He wouldn't want to do it himself.
What's more, her parents no longer asked for betrothal gifts or a car, and only asked for a down payment for a small apartment big enough for two people. They were already more tolerant than countless Chinese parents.
If this can't be done, it's their family's problem, and anything else that's superfluous is just ignorance.
"Mom, don't worry, there will be a house. Mo Qing is also your daughter-in-law, she can't run away." Qin Lin quickly finished the rice in the bowl, then went back to his room, opened a cabinet, and there was a cupboard inside. This marriage certificate.
The man is Qin Lin and the woman is Zhao Moqing.
When he told his mother that Mo Qing was his daughter-in-law, he didn't say it casually, but it was all hidden from both parents.
When his girlfriend stole the household registration book and wanted to register with him, saying that she would identify with him for the rest of her life, the warmth in his heart could really melt the entire Antarctic glacier.
He knew how much courage Mo Qing had taken, and he knew that he would never let her down in this life.
He also knew that registering with Mo Qing in that situation would be unfair to her and would be a deception to the Zhao family, but he was even more afraid of losing the most precious thing in his life.
Just as he was thinking about it, the game screen in Qin Lin's mind started to move. He immediately put the marriage certificate away carefully, locked the drawer again, and then looked at the game screen in his mind.
The watermelons in those fields have already grown vines, and the watermelons will mature tomorrow morning. However, there are also pests on the watermelon vines, which must be cleaned up, otherwise the growth rate and production quantity of the watermelons will be affected.
With a thought, Qin Lin controlled the game character to take out a small net for cleaning pests and clean them one by one.
