Chapter 12, Windfall

With excitement, Lin Xiaobo came to the first seed store, this seed store is called Hongyang Seed Store, and from the introduction on the signboard, it seems that it mainly sells seeds of melons, fruits and vegetables.

After entering, I found that the store was not big, only less than 50 square meters, and there was a middle-aged man in the store, who was the owner of the store.

"What seeds do you want to buy?" Seeing Lin Xiaobo, the boss hurriedly greeted.

"Boss, what seeds do you have here?" Lin Xiaobo casually glanced at it and found that there were quite a lot of seeds, so he asked.

The boss introduced: "Haha, don't look at our small place, but we have some vegetable seeds for usual, and the varieties are all up-to-date, so as to ensure that the germination rate is qualified." Then, the boss asked again: "Little brother, what seeds do you want to buy?" ”

Lin Xiaobo didn't answer directly, he found a few seeds at random, took them in his hand and looked at them carefully, looking at the production date, they were all produced this year, which was really good.

"Boss, what's the price of this package?" Lin Xiaobo asked with a packet of pumpkin seeds in his hand.

"This pack is five dollars, and there are about twenty pills." The boss didn't think about it, and replied directly.

Lin Xiaobo asked about the prices of several other seeds, and found that there were cheaper ones, three or four yuan a pack, and some more expensive ones, thirty yuan a pack. Lin Xiaobo thought about it, anyway, what he wants is the type, not the quantity, so let's have a pack of everything.

After making up his mind, Lin Xiaobo said directly to the boss: "Boss, take a pack of everything from you." ”

"Ah, everything?" The boss was very surprised, and asked rhetorically: "A pack of everything?" ”

"Well, a pack of everything." Lin Xiaobo replied with great certainty.

After listening to Lin Xiaobo's answer, the boss was very happy, after all, although the requirement of having a pack is very strange, there are nearly 100 varieties in the store, and it is a big business that is nearly 1,000 yuan smaller, so he is naturally very happy.

"Okay, you can rest next to you, I'll find it for you right away." The boss was very happy to take the seeds, and this time he was quite careful when he looked for it, after all, if he found one more, the more money he had.

Whenever the boss brought a packet over, Lin Xiaobo would take it, take a closer look, and ask the housekeeper to record what variety it was and what the production date was, in case the boss took some duplicate or expired seeds for himself, so that he would become a big wrongdoer.

However, the boss is still more sincere, and the results have been forty or fifty one after another, and the shelf life is no problem. However, looking at it, Lin Xiaobo found the place where the organ was.

For example, the two bags of seeds that Lin Xiaobo is holding in his hand now look like watermelon seeds, but the names are different, one with a large fruit type and the other with an early maturity type, which makes Lin Xiaobo a little confused.

Lin Xiaobo asked, "Boss, aren't these two bags watermelons?" ”

The busy boss looked back at what Lin Xiaobo was holding, then turned back and continued to take the seeds, while explaining: "Those are two different varieties, the big fruit has more water, but it is not sweet; The early ripening ones ripen quickly, and the melons are small but sweet. Do you still have black-skinned watermelons and seedless watermelons in your hand? Or just one? ”

Lin Xiaobo listened to the boss's explanation and decided to do it, after all, each has its own strengths, and when the time comes, if it is planted in the space, maybe the growing conditions will be good, and it will be delicious at that time, and there may be several new varieties in the space.

After deciding, Lin Xiaobo said to the boss: "Boss, I want it, and the others are the same." ”

The boss agreed, and he didn't stop, and continued to take the seeds, Lin Xiaobo didn't expect that the store was not big, but there were many varieties, watching the boss take the seeds in the same way, and after a while, a lot of them were piled up, which made Lin Xiaobo secretly worry about whether his money was enough.

Speaking of the boss who took the seeds, he was very happy in his heart, usually not many people came to buy seeds, they all bought a little scattered, and maybe not as much as this time in a month.

Because around the town, there are many mountains and little land, so there are not many large-scale plantings, even if the surrounding villages come to buy seeds, they are all bought to grow and eat by themselves, the amount is not large, the boss here is a lot of last year's goods, today can have Lin Xiaobo this big customer, naturally very happy, rummaging through the cabinets, as long as it is different, all taken out, piled in front of Lin Xiaobo.

After more than ten minutes, just when Lin Xiaobo was secretly worried about his wallet, the boss finally finished it, which made Lin Xiaobo secretly relieved.

In fact, it is not surprising that there are so many seeds, in more than 100 natural villages around Xiaomo Town, this is not a small number, plus the special geographical location of Yunnan, it is almost not too cold all year round, almost all vegetables can be planted, so vegetables or something, in the store here, the variety is relatively complete.

Lin Xiaobo counted and found that there were forty-five kinds of vegetables, basically all of which were common, although there were only more than forty kinds of vegetables, there were one hundred and eighty-two packets of seeds, and the reason why there were so many was because just like the watermelon seeds just now, a watermelon was also divided into several kinds, so that the number was relatively large.

"Okay, little brother, that's all, do you want it? Although some of these seeds are from last year, they are all within the shelf life, and they will never pass the shelf life. "The owner was very polite, could you not be polite? Although I don't know what to buy for, but what does that have to do with myself, what I sell is not dangerous goods, the more customers buy, the more money they make, of course it is a good thing.

"Okay, it's all about it, boss, you calculate the price." Lin Xiaobo said very calmly.

Seeing that Lin Xiaobo was going to do it, the boss's face was like a smile, and he quickly took out a calculator, carefully calculated it one by one, took each package, and read the price to Lin Xiaobo, the boss just wanted to show publicity, but he didn't expect Lin Xiaobo to have a housekeeper, and when the boss calculated, Lin Xiaobo also asked the housekeeper to follow suit, in case he was cheated.

In the end, it took a while to calculate it, a total of 1,430 yuan, and the housekeeper calculated the same as the boss.

"A total of 1,430 yuan, the odds will be wiped for you, 1,040 will be fine, do you want to count it again." After calculating, the boss took the initiative to erase the odds and asked Lin Xiaobo if he needed to calculate them again.

With the housekeeper here, Lin Xiaobo naturally didn't have to count it again, waved his hand generously, and said: "No need, look at the boss, you are also a sincere person, don't forget it." ”

Lin Xiaobo's generosity made the boss obviously more happy, and said to Lin Xiaobo: "Haha, thank you, brother, for your words, if anything happens to this batch of seeds, you take it, and I will change it for you for free." ”

Lin Xiaobo took out two thousand yuan from his pocket, but in fact, the money had just been moved from the space to his pocket, counted one thousand two and handed it to the boss, and the others were stuffed back into his pocket, and said to the boss: "Boss, you count." ”。

"Okay." Although he and Lin Xiaobo were brothers and sisters just now, when it comes to money, the boss doesn't want to lose money because he recognized a brother.

Lin Xiaobo didn't bother the boss with money, pulled a few bags by himself, and began to put the seeds into the bags.

After a while, after Lin Xiaobo had packed all the seeds, the boss also checked the money and said to Lin Xiaobo: "It's okay, brother." ”

"Well, hard work boss." Lin Xiaobo replied with a smile.

"It's okay, do you make money, how can you not work hard." The boss waved his hand, and then reminded: "By the way, brother, you have to put the money in your pocket, there are more petty thieves here, you should be careful." ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiaobo was stunned, he really didn't know this, when he came before, he hadn't encountered it, and it is estimated that only locals like the boss are familiar with this, after being stunned, Lin Xiaobo thanked: "Thank you boss for reminding me, this is the first time I've heard of it." ”

However, it is estimated that if the thief steals from Lin Xiaobo, it will be sad, Lin Xiaobo's money is in the space, and there is no money on his body, and when the time comes, the thief will not only not steal the money, but also be beaten by Lin Xiaobo, who has nowhere to vent his energy.

"By the way, brother, this is my business card, if anything happens, call me and let me know." The boss took out a business card from the drawer next to him and handed it to Lin Xiaobo.

Lin Xiaobo took the business card with both hands, and after reading it, he realized that the boss's name was Li Baolai.

After reading the business card, Lin Xiaobo said: "Brother Li, I don't have a business card either, so let's write it for you." ”

Then, Lin Xiaobo took another business card handed over by Li Baolai and wrote his name and number on the back.

"Oh, Lin Xiaobo, you look literate." After Li Baolai opened Lin Xiaobo's name, he praised it.

"Brother Li said with a smile, what is cultured, it's just a matter of reading books for a few years." Lin Xiaobo said embarrassedly.

Li Baolai smiled and said to Lin Xiaobo: "If you don't understand any questions when you are planting, call me according to the phone number on your business card, and I will be at any time." Although I don't know much, I still know about general things. ”

"Thank you, Brother Li." Lin Xiaobo said, "Brother Li, I still have something to do later, so I'll leave first." ”

Hearing that Lin Xiaobo was leaving, Brother Li suddenly stopped Lin Xiaobo again and said, "Xiaobo, wait a minute, I bought some plant seeds of gourds and yew a few years ago, there are several kinds, and I haven't sold them, and now I don't know if I can grow them, do you want to, if you want to, I will give them to you." ”

Hearing Li Baolai's words, Lin Xiaobo was naturally overjoyed and said: "Yes, why not, Brother Li, you don't know yet, I am more interested in these plants, and I like to plant some plants very much." ”

"That's a good feeling, wait a minute, I'll find it for you, it's been a bit long, and I don't know where to put it." Li Baolai flipped through this and that, and it seemed that time was indeed a bit 'long'.

After rummaging for a while, Li Baolai took out four or five packets of seeds from the bottom of the cabinet, and the bags were full of ash, which looked really old.

Li Baolai smiled awkwardly, took out a cloth, wiped it, and said to Lin Xiaobo: "Let my brother laugh, these packets of seeds are because there was a time when yew trees were sold very hot, and many villages and people around them planted them, and it was like crazy at that time." At that time, I took the opportunity to sell a lot of seeds, and then due to the low germination rate of yew seeds, it was not easy to serve, and gradually the yew was not popular, and fewer people bought it. ”

After Li Bao finished speaking, they were all wiped clean, Lin Xiaobo took it and said with a smile: "Brother Li, where is it, I am just planting and playing, it is good to be able to grow and live, and I am not sorry if I can't plant it, thank you It's too late, how can I blame Brother Li." ”

After listening to Lin Xiaobo's words, Li Baolai said with a smile: "That relationship is good, what is not thankful, and it is not worth a few dollars." ”

Lin Xiaobo is not worried about whether he can grow alive, if there is no space, Lin Xiaobo will also worry about not being able to plant, but with space, as long as the seeds are fine, Lin Xiaobo never worries about the germination rate of the seeds.

After receiving the seeds handed over by Li Baolai, Lin Xiaobo took a closer look and found that among these bags of seeds, there were two kinds of yew, one was Chinese yew, which is a variant of yew; There is also a Yunnan yew, which belongs to the Mandia yew, which is a natural hybrid, and its paclitaxel content is several times to dozens of times higher than that of other yew, but in the natural environment, this yew is very few, mainly by artificial planting, and the growth period of yew is relatively long, so the market price is more expensive.
