Chapter 5 Picking
According to his statistics, a mature vermilion tree is about 1.5 meters tall, and the number of vermilion fruits on a tree ranges from 25 to 40. An acre of land can be planted with about 600 vermilion trees, and the yield of one acre of land is between 15,000 and 24,000, and the yield of ten acres is 150,000 to 240,000.
With such an output, even if Lu Yang only sells it for 3 yuan a piece, the income of ten mu will reach more than 450,000 yuan!
"450,000!" Thinking of this number, Lu Yang's heart jumped a few times. He worked hard in Shencheng for three years, but he only saved more than 100,000 yuan, and his parents worked hard at home all their lives, and their final savings were not 100,000 yuan......
"No wonder those entrepreneurs are so rich, it's good to start a business!" Thinking of such an income on the horizon, Lu Yang couldn't help but sigh, but at this moment he forgot that in that huge team of entrepreneurs, only a few people could succeed in the end.
After the zhu fruit was ripe, Lu Yang began to organize people to pick it.
"Uncle Ge, I'm sorry for you." Lu Yang prepared the corresponding tools, and at this time, Ge Jiefang also found a lot of people, all of whom were elderly, and some children were playing in the crowd.
"Don't worry, Lu Yang, don't look at our age, but when it comes to work in the field, everyone here is an expert! Alas, Lao Fan, take care of your grandson, don't let him run around in the field. As he was talking, a six- or seven-year-old boy rushed into the Zhu Guo field, and Ge Jiefang saw it and immediately yelled.
Lu Yang looked at these people in front of him, old and young, and smiled bitterly in his heart. However, he really had no choice, and there were only these people left in Dayan Village, and those young ones had gone out to work. In such a remote place, where can he recruit people?
Ge Jiefang took the lead in walking into the Zhu Guo field, and the others followed one after another.
"Be careful, don't spoil the fruit. Sue you, this fruit is a new variety, studied by the people in the city, and it is very expensive, and whoever wants to destroy the fruit will lose money! ”
Ge Jiefang's loud voice echoed in the ground.
"Uncle Ge, it's not so strict." Lu Yang said on the side.
"I'm just scaring them, it's okay, okay, you go and get busy with you, these fruits are guaranteed to be picked for you today!"
I have to say that Ge Jiefang, who has been the village chief for most of his life, has a really strong organizational ability, and under his leadership, the work efficiency of these elderly soldiers made Lu Yang secretly surprised, and after more than two hours of work, the Zhu Guo of three acres of land has been picked.
On the other side, Lu Yang packed the picked zhuguo in a special box, which was conducive to preservation and transportation.
The picking went smoothly, and by 11 o'clock at noon, half of the fruit had not been picked. However, later, an accident happened.
"Dog, what are you eating!" Ge Lao had just sent a basket of vermilion fruits to the edge of the field, and when he turned around, he found a child eating vermilion fruits. The boy was seven or eight years old, and he took a vermilion fruit in each hand and stuffed it into his mouth, and ate five or six in a few moments.
The child named Goudanzi was startled by Ge Jiefang and almost choked.
"Uncle, it's not me alone, Xiaodong and they are all eating, my grandfather is also eating, and ** milk is also eating......"
The dog sold everyone in a blink of an eye.
"What!" Ge Jiefang was furious, and took a closer look, but no, there were more than a dozen people around him, and everyone had red marks on their mouths.
"Stop me!" Ge Jiefang roared, and even Lu Yang, who was loading Zhu Guo into the car, was startled.
"What's wrong, Uncle Ge?" Lu Yang thought something was going on and hurriedly ran over.
Ge Lao was ashamed: "Lu Yang, this time I'm sorry for you, you paid us a salary to let us work, these people actually ate secretly while working!" ”
When Lu Yang heard this, he was relieved.
"Uncle Ge, isn't it just to eat a few fruits, what's the matter, don't be angry."
Dog Danzi suddenly probed and said, "It's not a few, my brother said that he ate twelve, and he secretly hid a lot at home." ”
Ge Jiefang was already angry enough, but when he heard this, he was even more angry.
"Still taking it home? This little rabbit cub, Lao Xia, why don't you care about your grandson! ”
Not far from Ge Jiefang's left-hand side, an old man about his age lowered his head and did not speak.
Lu Yang looked around, and these people lowered their heads when they saw his gaze. Obviously, there were a lot of people who were there to steal food, and there were also a lot of people who took it home.
"Forget it, Uncle Ge, it's almost noon, after picking this point, everyone can go back for lunch, as for the rest, let's continue in the afternoon." Lu Yang has no way to do this, he is from the countryside, and he knows too much about the character of rural people. Lu Yang knew in his heart that these people didn't have any bad intentions, they just liked to take advantage of them.
Ge Jiefang was extremely ashamed, not to mention that he was the village head, even if he was the mayor, he probably couldn't put an end to it. After thinking about it, Ge Jiefang could only sigh in the end.
The episode of Zhu Guo picking was not taken to heart by Lu Yang.
"A total of 20,000 catties of vermilion fruits were harvested on ten acres of land, with an average of 2,000 catties per acre of land." After a busy day, Lu Yang counted the final output within the range he had estimated.
Early the next morning, Lu Yang left Dayan Village in the truck that Wu Fan had borrowed for him. Along the way, in order to prevent Zhu Guo from being damaged, Lu Yang's car drove very slowly. It was a whole morning before Lu Yang came to Fenglin City.
Before coming, Lu Yang had already rented a place in the largest vegetable and fruit market in Fenglin City, so this time, he went straight to the vegetable and fruit market in Fenglin City.
After tidying up his things, Lu Yang put six large boxes on the stall. This time he came to the city, and he brought a total of 40,000 vermilion fruits. These were only a small part of the book, and the rest were kept in a temporarily rented warehouse.
Opening the box, Lu Yang carefully arranged the Zhu Guo, and soon, the red Zhu Guo attracted the attention of passers-by.
It was the weekend, and there were a lot of people coming and going at the fruit and vegetable market.
After cleaning up, Lu Yang took out a sign from behind him and put it in front of the stall, which read "New Fruit Zhuguo: 3 yuan a piece". After setting up the sign, Lu Yang didn't greet him, but just sat calmly to rest.
"The new fruit, it can't be a small tomato, right?" Next to Lu Yang's stall, a fruit vendor in his forties took a look at Lu Yang's situation and couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Yang just glanced at him and didn't speak. The man snorted and turned to greet the guest.
Because of the storage of that brand, the customers who were originally attracted by the appearance of Zhu Guo stopped one after another, and after more than ten minutes of effort, there was no one in front of Lu Yang's booth.
"I've seen a lot of this kind of person, and it's just crazy for money...... the fruit vendor who had mocked Lu Yang before saw off a customer and said to the vegetable seller next to him. Although he didn't know Lu Yang, he was very disgusted with the brand, especially the price on the brand.
"New fruit, Zhu Guo, what is this?" At this moment, two girls who looked like college students walked together.
"Xiaotong, come and see, isn't this a little tomato?" One of the girls in a long green dress picked up a vermilion and said.
The other girl was wearing a white dress with a beautiful face, and at first glance she looked like a fairy.
"It's said that it's a new fruit, so it's not a tomato. Boss, is this called Zhu Guo? The girl named Xiaotong asked.
Seeing that there were guests asking, it was still two beauties, and Lu Yang also raised his spirits.
"Yes, this fruit is called Zhuguo, and it is a new variety that is on the market for the first time."
"Even if it's a new variety, it's too expensive." The woman in green pointed to the sign, seemingly angry.
Lu Yang shrugged: "Zhu Guo is worth the price." ”
The woman in green was enraged by his actions: "What kind of attitude do you have, do you have such a business?" ”
In front of the public, a beautiful woman went berserk and immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd. People who like to be lively have come around, and for a while, there was a lot of noise in front of Lu Yang's stall.
However, most of these people blame Lu Yang.
"Why is this man like this, losing his temper with a girl!" A young man with an unknown situation came out to fight.
"I think he's a profiteer, what a new variety of fruit, it costs 3 yuan a piece!" An aunt looked at the sign and said loudly.
"Not bad!" The people around him agreed, as if Lu Yang was really a profiteer who did all kinds of evil.
The fruit seller who had laughed at Lu Yang before also clasped his hands to his chest at this time, watching the excitement with relish on the side. Although business was also affected, the fruit vendor's expression was happy and his heart was relieved.
"Kiki, forget it." The woman named Xiaotong saw that the matter was getting bigger, so she quickly pulled her companion, "Let's go quickly." ”
The woman in green said, "No, he has to apologize to me today!" ”
"Yes, I have to apologize!" There are a lot of people who echo the beautiful women when they speak, especially a few young men, who even rolled up their sleeves as if they were going to fight.
