After sending the little dealer named Hu away, the three brothers and sisters went down the mountain.
The master who helped build the house had two young apprentices working for him. They patiently explained to the helpers how to do the work before they could get started. If you need anything, you have to go to Li Sanzhu, the owner. He was so busy at home and outside that he never had a moment of leisure from morning to night.
Li Changlei carried a large basket of fruits without the help of Li Changshan and Li Qiusui, and carried it home huffing and puffing alone. The fruit with the writing on it was among them, and a piece of grass was pulled over it to cover it.
Many people in the village helped with the work, and a fruit seller named Hu came to visit. The news he got couldn't just be found by casually walking over. Someone must have seen the quality of his fruits and told them about it, so they came over to take a look.
The fruit grows well, and the price given by the person named Hu is fair. The matter of long characters needs to be discussed as a family.
It was completely dark, and the people who helped with the work were leaving one after another, and it was only then that Li Sanzhu and his family had dinner.
When Li Changan came back from the county town, he had too many things to do at home, and they didn't agree with him taking a vacation. It was a big deal that he delayed his studies. Even if there are a hundred people in the family, we still have to deal with these things one by one. He has been studying for two years, and everyone says it is pretty good. He is thinking that he will be able to finish his studies in the next two years.
As for Zhao Da, someone climbed up the mountain and Li Qiusui let him live on the mountain.
Even though there was no rule in the family about not talking during dinner or sleeping during dinner, Li Changlei wanted to talk when he saw his family members gathered together. However, seeing that his eldest brother and younger sister were both able to keep their composure, Hongying led the others. , went back and forth to bring food to the table, and swallowed back what he wanted to say.
After finally having dinner, Li Changlei directly showed the fruit to Li Sanzhu, "Dad, look, our fruit has a long word on it! It's also a blessing! We still have many such fruits in our family! "
Li Sanzhu was stunned, he had already seen that the second child was hesitant to speak, and was deliberately trying to temper his impulsive and restless temper. During the whole meal, even Mrs. Liu winked at him and she pretended not to notice.
Li Changlei thrust the fruit into his father's hand. Li Sanzhu was no stranger to the word "blessing".
Whoever doesn't post the word "福" on them during the Chinese New Year means he hasn't learned to read the word before, but he also knows the word!
It's great to have one long character, but so many of them have long characters. He needs to think about it carefully. By the way, let’s go to the old house to discuss with the old man and eldest brother first. The fruit trees were all bought by the Chen family. We can’t publicize the long words until the newly purchased hills are planted...
He wondered again, does Chen Qi know that the fruit has a long character? If he knows it, there is no reason to hide it and not publicize it everywhere. How can the price of fruit trees be so different from other companies?
Li Sanzhu was pacing back and forth holding the fruit...
Mrs. Liu's thoughts came to her quickly, and she didn't tidy things up inside and out. After dinner, the dishes were still piled up on the table, and she would help the Zhou Ping family lead people to clean them up.
How can I care about these things now? I have the basket on my back and am going to the top of the mountain.
Xia He has always been a considerate little cotton-padded jacket. When Liu made a move, she immediately guessed the reason, and then she also put on the small backpack, "Mom, it's too dark, let dad come with us!"
Li Qiusui was dumbfounded. What was he doing in the middle of the night?
Before she could ask, Xia He explained to her, "Our hilltop is right next to the village. I'm afraid someone has already sneaked up to see what the fruit looks like. If it doesn't look good, it might not be worth it." What should I do? When I have a long handwriting, I am not afraid of thieves stealing me, but I am afraid that thieves will take note of me."
She also called back to Li Sanzhu, "Dad, the few people in our family are useless even in the white night! You go find my grandpa. The second uncle and the fourth uncle should have had dinner."
Li Dazhu asked the three brothers, including the old man, to have free time and help at home during the day. Sometimes they would stay here for dinner. I said I had something to do at home today, so I went back early in the evening.
Xia He only talked about Li Erzhu and Li Sizhu. First of all, the old man was old and it was not safe to walk at night in the middle of the night. Also, uncle Li Dazhu is weak, so he is still competent in finding someone to help him and paying him wages, but he is a bit hard to do other things.
Li Qiusui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Zhao Da was leading his people to guard on the mountain!
"Let dad find some dogs tomorrow. When we get back, we'll keep them for two days. Even if someone goes up the mountain, we have to weigh them!"
We don’t need so many people guarding us!
"A vendor came to the door today. I'm still busy at home, so my eldest brother sent the person away. I heard that the person knew Chen Qi. Dad is free, so I went to inquire about him..."
When Mrs. Liu heard that a vendor came to her door, she turned around quickly, interrupted Li Qiusui and asked, "Has that person seen the long characters on our fruits?"
Without waiting for anyone to reply, he went to Li Sanzhu again, "The head of the family should go to our father quickly. How could they know how powerful they are among their brothers, sisters, and children?"
Li Sanzhu nodded, raised his feet and was about to leave.
That person didn't see that our fruit has a long character!
Li Qiusui tried to stop him, but Li Changshan shook his head, "Let your parents make arrangements!"
That night, brothers Li Sanzhu and Li Erzhu, together with Zhao Da, lived in the mountain. The fruit will take a while to ripen, so if you wait all day and night like this, just expect a few people in your family to be able to bear it.
Early in the morning, Li Qiusui carried a large basket of food up the mountain. A few simple thatched shacks were built on the top of the mountain. They were just enough for people to live in, but they didn't expect to be able to cook in them. Fortunately it's not cold yet, otherwise, people would really suffer a lot!
Li Sanzhu and the others took turns sleeping last night and are in good spirits now. Zhao Da explained everything in detail last night, including the price given by the vendor named Hu.
Li Sanzhu took the white-water eggs handed over by Li Qiu Sui, "Sui Sui, I have discussed it with your second uncle. Today I will go to Chen Qi to ask. If the person named Hu is reliable, he will not say anything in the first place. Why not give those fruits to him!"
The quality of his own fruits was displayed there. Li Sanzhu inquired about the sales of some fruits, and Cheng Dashou also said that he would reserve some for him.
The reason why Li Qiusui thought of ways to store the fruit was because he didn't expect the fruit to be available so quickly.
The leader, Zhao Da, also proposed to send some fruits to the Zheng family first, with the intention of making the Zheng family take a fancy and come to buy them.
Now, this saves a lot of trouble.
"Dad makes the decision! It will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a while. Over at the Zheng family, the Dragon Boat Festival people have sent festival gifts first. This time, I will send some fruits with long characters."
Eggs cannot be put in one basket!
Since the Zheng family had first started to come and go frequently, it was quite unusual for Guozi to have a long character.
Li Qiusui didn't know if anyone in this dynasty had made this kind of fruit. Zhao Da had some experience, but he said he had never heard of it. The old man of the Zheng family is still an official in the capital, so she sent him as a gift. What happens next is the Zheng family's business.
Her fruit was an ordinary fruit, but it was so big that people paid twenty grand for it. If you don't give a high price for something with such long characters, you won't be able to bear the thought you put into it.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is still more than half a month away, why do you have to give Boxing gifts so early?
Little did Li Sanzhu know that his little girl would have so many thoughts in that moment. It was a fact that the Zheng family gave gifts first during the Dragon Boat Festival. This time I have something rare at home, so if I send two of them over, it can be regarded as a return.
"Then pick out a few good ones and send them over!"
