During the summer vacation, Pangpang ate tomatoes at home for more than half a month, and then came to You Yu's house.
Just because of a phone call from You Yu: "The sweetest and most delicious honeydew melon in the universe is ripe. Do you want to come and eat it?"
The fruits and vegetables grown by Madam Yu’s family have never disappointed the villain. Regardless of the booming tomato business at his house every day, he insists on having his grandfather deliver them.
In order to save seeds, the honeydew melons are now fully ripe.
Yesterday evening, the first one opened.
Song Yongchang was in an extremely uneasy mood. The honeydew melons grown at his granddaughter's house had rich and deep skin textures, and the color was different from the black eyebrows he brought back.
The largest one weighs just over three pounds!
Before it is cut, the melon stem is already so fragrant.
Under the expectant eyes of everyone, he cut it open with great caution.
The skin is as thin as paper and the flesh is as green as jade.
Without any precautions, a strange fragrance hits your nose. This is a unique sweet fragrance of honeydew melon, refreshing, mellow and long-lasting.
If you look carefully, you can see that there is a strong vanilla flavor in the aroma.
Just the smell of it is enough to make you head over heels!
"Smells!" The old man was at a loss for words.
"It smells so comfortable!" The old lady felt a little more enlightened.
"It smells so good that my mouth is watering..." You Yu's reaction was the most genuine, as the saliva in her mouth refused to obey her orders.
"The best honeydew melons in xj don't smell as good as this one! It smells so overbearing!" My uncle smelled the two honeydew melons again and again and made a conclusion about it.
"Then let's dig out the seeds and pulp first, half for two people, and eat it with a spoon like a watermelon!" For You Yu, the peeled and pulped melon, which is less than three kilograms, is completely useless for four people to share. pressure.
Upon hearing this, Grandma You quickly found four spoons.
Dig gently and get a spoonful of honey!
Under everyone's eager eyes, You Yu put the meat into his mouth.
After taking a sip, the honeydew melon was so juicy that it was about to overflow from the corners of my mouth, so I hurriedly grabbed it with my hands.
The soft and delicate texture is like eating ice cream, and it's so sweet that it tastes like heaven...
The "king" of sweetness among melons, this is it!
If it could be kept in the refrigerator overnight, wouldn't it be vanilla-flavored melon ice cream?
What kind of delicacy is this to relieve the heat on a hot summer day?
"Eat quickly, eat quickly, the best honeydew melon in the universe!"
Who can bear it when it's so sweet?
After taking one bite, I wanted to take another bite. I felt that half a melon was not enough to fill my teeth.
The three elderly people in the group were also scrambling to dig in quickly. It didn’t matter whether their teeth were good or not, they could turn into honey with just one sip.
After eating the melon, my mouth and hands were all sticky, even so sticky that I could draw strings.
In less than five minutes, all the pulp was scooped out, leaving only a rind estimated to be 4 mm thick.
"Uncle, how was it? Is it better than the other honeydews you've had in xj before?"
"Xiaoyu, is this melon really grown from the seeds of the honeydew melon I gave you during the Chinese New Year? It's ten times more delicious than the black eyebrow melon! Other types are not as fragrant or soft and sweet!"
Song Yongchang still can't believe that even the melon he just ate was grown by him.
"Well, they are the seeds of the four honeydew melons, but they were grown with some disinfectant and nutrient solution developed by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences."
"Hey, just say it!" Grandpa patted his thigh, finally figuring out the problem he had been pondering for several months.
"Uncle, we have a special relationship to get disinfection and nutrient solutions. Please don't tell anyone about it. My family now relies on this secret weapon to make money!"
"If you don't tell me, I won't tell anyone. If anyone asks, just say it's a new variety I brought back from xj."
Song Yongchang: My granddaughter can tell him the truth, which shows how much she trusts his character. Besides, next year I will give him honeydew melon seedlings for free!
He offended the Goddess of Wealth, but he didn’t suffer from Alzheimer’s disease!
"Our family will only sell a thousand honeydew melons this year, and the remaining two thousand will be used to treat the villagers and relatives to eat melons!"
"What's the matter? Give it to others!" Song Rongchang was shocked. His family was ruined like this?
The old man who knew his granddaughter's urine was not in a hurry, wiped his mouth, "Who has eaten such delicious melons and doesn't want to grow them? If you want to grow them, don't you have to buy seedlings?"
"Hey, hey, my grandpa understands me! I sell a thousand to everyone, it is a high-economic crop, and it is lacking in the market! If you treat me to a melon, of course I have to let everyone know how good my melons are. Eat! The most important thing is to dig out the seeds inside the honeydew melon!"
"Yeah, you can't just dig the seeds and then sell the melons..."
No one is as expert as Song Yongchang in how ripe a honeydew melon is. You don’t even have to knock it. You can tell just by smelling the melon handle and the rich aroma of the melon navel.
In addition to Pangpang and Uncle Ye, the second wave of melon-eating people also invited their cousin Ke Shumin.
Friends, big and small, got half a melon each, and they never said a word again, and their mouths were full of juice.
Uncle Ye was stunned by the sweetness, but what he was most concerned about was: "Xiaoyu, do you plan to sell it for a pound?"
He had long compared several vegetables from his niece's house in his mind.
The yield of cherry radish per mu is 1,600 kilograms, which was 3 yuan per kilogram last year. If you grow it for four seasons, the income per mu is 19,200 yuan;
The yield of tomatoes is 5,000 kilograms per mu, 5 yuan per kilogram, and the income per mu is 25,000 yuan;
The yield of mosong per mu is 2,500 kilograms. At the price at the beginning of this year, the income per mu would be 34,000 yuan.
Such a delicious honeydew melon, how much does it cost?
"The initial price is eight yuan per catty! The size is quite symmetrical, with an average of about three catties each!"
"Isn't that an output value of 36,000 yuan per mu? It's more valuable than mosong!" Uncle Ye took a breath of cold air.
Be good!
Inkwort is already the ceiling he thinks, but honeydew melon is actually a little better, and growing honeydew melon is not as expensive as growing inkjet.
"Uncle, each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Although it is time-consuming and troublesome to grow ink, it can be grown continuously, but honeydew is not suitable."
"Well, well..." Ye Zhishu was absent-minded. He was already thinking about the abandoned firewood volcano of their production team and felt that it could be opened up again.
No worries at all. Who would buy the eight yuan a pound of honeydew my niece mentioned?
Hotels and restaurants are of course the first choice.
Jiang Wenmei was very dissatisfied. She only got half of a thousand honeydew melons!
Hey, she is no longer the only buyer of Youyu girl.
You Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Manager Jiang, the other five restaurants only share one hundred for each one. Next year, next year, I will let you have the freedom to eat melon!"
"Hey, oh, oh, next year after next year, how many next years are there?"
"I'm not a painter. Next year I will plant at least 300 acres, 1,500 melons per acre. Do you think you are free?"
"Okay!" With confidence, Jiang Wenmei knew what was going on.
The diners at the Jiang County Hotel did not get to eat the melons from You Yu's house, and were all sent away with gifts.
The gift box called "Vanilla Ice Cream Honeydew" comes in a box with two melons, and the packaging is incredibly exquisite.
It can be seen from the smiling face of her general manager recently how effective this gift is...
