Chapter 7: Fiery
When Zhou Yi thought that there were a lot of grapes, the villagers in the town told him: There are really not many grapes.
Those customers who came to Dongtian went back that night. It was Zhou Yi who sent them away, and there were more than ten baskets of grapes with them.
They heard that Zhou Yi was going to sell the grapes to Baisha, so they didn't know who drove them to buy one basket of grapes per person, and soon divided the twenty or thirty baskets of grapes picked first.
They don't have to worry about eating endless grapes. The taste is so good, can you give it away if you can't finish eating? Take 10,000 steps back and say, take it out and sell it, and you are not afraid that you won't be able to sell it!
The day after the townspeople left, boxes of Dongtian grapes were packed and shipped to Baisha.
The summer is hot, and in this steel city, it is extremely hot. The people inside are like crabs on a steamer, crawling everywhere because they are not bound with their legs and feet.
In the past few days, a fresh wind has blown into Baisha City, blowing away the heat in the city.
Clusters of purple grapes, with the freshness and freshness of the sky, are sold at one grape sales point.
Hou Lin, a monkey-faced thin young man, lives in the Changya community.
On this day, I just came back from running errands outside, passing by a large supermarket not far from my home, and suddenly saw a crowd of people in front of the supermarket, surrounded by something, and a person, from inside boxes of things I don't know what to move out.
As a normal human being, when he has free time, Hou Lin will never lose his excitement.
He looked at a woman carrying a small cardboard box who walked towards him, and looked at the box package held by the old woman - "Dongtian Grape", and four big green characters rushed towards him.
Because of the hurry, Zhou Yi only used an ordinary green carton for packaging, which was not only not very exquisite, but also coarse.
"Grapes? Could it be a promotion? Hou Lin thought to himself, so he grabbed the old woman and asked, "What are you buying?" ”
The old woman's temper didn't seem to be very good, and she stared at him with round eyes, and said angrily: "Didn't you see that it was grapes!?" ”
She held a box of grapes, turned and left.
Although the old woman was a little more temperamental, she was still a warm-hearted person, and when she was halfway through, she turned her head and replied: "Hou Shengzi, this grape is good, but it is a little more expensive—you should buy it as soon as possible!" ”
Hou Lin listened to the old woman's words, and also squeezed into the crowd, and finally reached the front of the grape seller.
"Uncle, do you want to buy grapes?" A young female voice sounded in front of him. Hou Lin looked up and saw that the girl selling grapes in front of him was obviously a student girl who came out part-time.
"How are the grapes sold?"
"Two hundred dollars a box?" The female voice accepted the money handed by the person next to her and took a box of grapes to the person, so that she had a chance to return to Hou Lin's words.
"Two hundred dollars? Such a small box? Hou Lin questioned. He had actually seen the person next to him hand over two hundred yuan, took a small box of grapes and walked away, already knowing the price.
The student girl knew that he would have questions—there were too many such questions. She wasn't as flustered as she was at first, but she didn't hurry and said, "Uncle, let's taste it." ”
The taste speaks for itself, whether the grapes are worth 200 dollars or not.
Hou Lin pinched a fresh grape with purple mist, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, even in such a popular and exhaust city, the strong fragrance of grapes also came to the surface, so fresh that Hou Lin seemed to see the growth and release of grapes in the mountains; A little tear was made, and a drop of dew dripped out, and he quickly caught it with his lips and mouth—the sweet breath was clear and cool in his mouth; Sweet, not greasy at all, but refreshing and pleasant, like the drop of dew on the lotus leaf in summer, accidentally splashed out, leaving this purple and clear pearl!
"Okay—" This sigh came out, and the gluttonous water in his mouth was not covered, but all of it was revealed, causing everyone to dodge and disgust.
Hou Lin didn't care at all, looking at the fewer and fewer grapes, he didn't care about wiping his saliva at all, and hurriedly said: "Bring me one box of grapes, not two boxes, no, just three boxes!" Can it be cheaper? ”
The little sister of the student was also amused by his funny posture, and said with a smile: "It's not cheap, I also do things for people." Moreover, there are still so many people waiting to buy grapes, and now there are only so many grapes, I am afraid that many people will not be able to buy them. While speaking, the student girl sent out a few more boxes of grapes.
Seeing this, Hou Lin saw that the other party was indeed not worried about selling, nor was he talking nonsense, handed over the six hundred yuan, and left with three boxes of grapes!
The student girl put a few hundred dollars into a locked cash box guarded by a young man next to her and continued her sales mission.
As soon as Hou Lin brought the grapes home, his daughter-in-law, who was waiting for him to eat in the house, exclaimed in surprise, "You can't buy the grapes at the door of the supermarket, right?" ”
Hou Lin nodded.
"Two hundred dollars a box, six hundred dollars just spent? You're going to die! ”
At this time, the smell of grapes also went down, Hou Lin smacked his lips, and felt that it seemed to be like that: 600 yuan to buy a few catties of grapes, I'm not obsessed.
For a working family, 600 yuan is not much, but it depends on what you do. The two of them, along with their own children, were not particularly fond of eating grapes, and now spending 600 yuan to buy this idea of grapes does seem to be a bit exaggerated.
A few years old boy from the Hou family, who had been waiting for his father to come back for dinner, listened to the grapes bought for two hundred yuan at this time, and also asked, "Dad, why did you spend so much money to buy grapes?" You haven't bought me the Ultraman I wanted! ”
After all, a child is a child, and he is also curious in his heart, what grapes are so expensive? Besides, at noon, he hadn't eaten yet, and he was really hungry.
The fat little hands, with the help of Hou Lin, tore open a carton, revealing the full and fragrant grapes. The grapes, purple and shining, white mist, and the long-hidden aroma suddenly vented out from the exit of the carton, and the room was full of fragrance!
Hou Xiaobao, the little baby of the Hou family, couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and his fat little hand pulled a grape hard and put it in his mouth.
Seeing this, Hou Lin's daughter-in-law didn't have time to react, but she saw that her little baby had swallowed a huge grape into her belly.
The purple sebum and sweet juice exploded on Hou Xiaobao's tongue in an instant, filling Hou Xiaobao's entire throat and tongue, the juice was wanton, and the lips were purple.
"Delicious!" The little baby of the Hou family didn't know how to describe the taste of grapes, a "delicious" overshadowed, and the fat and tender little hands continued to touch the grapes.
"Smack!" With a sound, a red mark appeared on Hou Xiaobao's little hand.
"What did Mom say? Wash your hands when you eat, right? Eating fruit has to be washed before eating, right? ”
"But, but, dad also eats ......" Hou Xiaobao looked pitifully at his father's big devil's claws stretched out to the little poor grape grains, and then sent the poor grapes into the devil's mouth, and finally couldn't bear to say.
"Smack!" A louder slap sounded, and immediately, the room echoed with the speech of the queen of the Hou family: "You are the same!" Be a role model! The daughter-in-law of the Hou family squinted her eyes and glanced at Hou Lin.
As she spoke, she couldn't bear to look at the grapes pitifully and drool, and carried a bunch of purple grapes to the kitchen to rinse.
The two fathers and sons of the Hou family, big eyes to small eyes, and then, four pairs of eyes looked at the box of open grapes - one big and one small seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they glanced at the kitchen door in unison, and the two hands of one big and one small grabbed the grapes in unison, one grabbed one and stuffed it straight into his mouth, letting it be juiced wantonly, full of fresh fragrance, and intoxicated......
