Chapter 18: Father and Son
Zhang Chutian's movements were fast, after all, the ripe peaches on the tree couldn't wait.
He discussed with Zhou Yi, ran back to Baisha after dinner, and brought back a series of things such as a part of the packaging box that had already been customized by phone.
Here, Zhou Yi had already asked someone to pick the ripe peaches.
The skin of the peach is very tender and the meat is very soft and soft, and when you eat it yourself, you don't care much, but if you want to pick it off and transport it to Baisha to buy it, you have to be careful and careful.
But no matter how careful you are, the peaches are too soft, softer than jelly, and they are good to eat, but when you pick them, you find that it is not easy.
Not everyone wants to be like Zhou Yi, after the baptism of spatial spiritual water, the control of their body strength has reached an extraordinary realm, and they can be comfortable when picking peaches.
In the past, even if there was a slight mistake in picking peaches, they could be picked to sold, but for an hour or two, except for a slight impact on the quality, there was no major problem. But this time it is to be transported to Baisha, to be sold on the shelves, from picking to selling, the time it has taken is definitely much longer, if it is damaged, the impact will be great, it is very likely, overnight, the damaged peaches will be all broken.
In the end, Zhou Yi thought about it: use sharp scissors to cut it from the root of the peach and the main branch, and then use a box filled with foam and soft things to undertake, and after packaging, send it directly to the transport vehicle.
Even with such care, in the process of cutting peaches, there are still two or three out of ten peaches damaged, although most of the damage is not significant, but they can only be digested on the spot, or given to relatives and friends.
This time, half of it is picked, and the rest is not yet ripe, so you can hang it on the tree for a few days, which makes it taste more delicious and the juice is fuller.
Although there are not many peaches, because of the heavy packaging, it took a few trucks to transport them.
Zhang Chutian transported the peaches to the warehouse of his own fruit store, and prepared to call someone to unload the goods, and put the peaches on the shelves as quickly as possible, as the treasure of the town store, and sold them at a high price.
He also has a few rich second-generation friends, and he is ready to let these people help publicize and attract some high-end customers.
He didn't plan to tell Daddy Zhang that he was going to make some achievements on his own and then ask for credit.
Zhang Chutian has been managing his own store for several years, and there are some things that can still be decided.
However, how can such a big movement be hidden from his father?
As soon as the truck entered the warehouse, Daddy Zhang appeared in front of him.
"Dad......" Zhang Chutian watched Daddy Zhang suddenly appear and screamed in embarrassment.
"You kid, your wings are stiff? Millions of business, without saying a word, you are the master? Daddy Zhang looked at the goods that were constantly being unloaded from the truck and asked.
Zhang Chutian wanted to deal with a few words, but his attention was always on that truckload of goods.
He saw that an unloading employee had a little heavier on his hands, and shouted in distress, "Why are you working so hard? I said, it's full of soft peaches, it's a thousand dollars a pound of water-like peaches, can you afford to pay for it? ”
To say that Zhang Chutian is not a domineering person on weekdays, but he feels sorry for Peaches!
But seeing the strength of the unloading employee, he could almost imagine that the peaches inside must have turned into a puddle of water.
The unloading employees are also aggrieved.
He listened to Zhang Chutian emphasize several times that he must handle it gently; I was already very careful, who knows, it was just a little heavier, and when the goods landed, it made a little sound, and it was immediately reprimanded.
He pursed his lips dissatisfiedly, but seeing that Daddy Zhang, the real big boss, was there, he didn't dare to refute under the prestige, and responded, "Then I'll be more careful......
Daddy Zhang, who was standing next to him, heard Zhang Chutian say "a thousand yuan and a pound of peaches", and was shocked - what peaches are so expensive?
He had heard of the name of Lishui Snow Peach, but even if it was that Snow Peach, only a few of the best products could sell for 1,000 yuan a catty, and it was still the market retail price, not the purchase price - there was still a large part of the reason for the speculation.
Zhang Chutian knew that this person was not convinced. At this time, he didn't care about Daddy Zhang standing aside, and opened the box directly.
As soon as the packaging box was opened, there was a strong peach fragrance, which was so fresh that it made people feel refreshed, but Zhang Chutian secretly screamed that it was not good - the peaches in Dongtian were indeed peachy, but there was definitely no such a strong method.
There is only one reason why such a rich peach fragrance rushes out of the box, and the peach is spoiled - the peach skin is damaged, and the peach juice flows out of it, so that such a strong fruity fragrance overflows.
He opened the heavy package inside, and sure enough, a big peach, which was originally plump and full, wilted, and the peach skin drooped, wrapping the peach pit, and the peach juice flowed through most of the box, and even gradually seeped out.
Seeing this, the porter also sneered, but he still disdainfully said: "What peach, a little hard will rot like this, this car, I don't know how much it will rot, I will kill you!" ”
The peaches on the market, because of transportation, are mostly hard peaches. Even the so-called "snow peach" is also a model of hard peaches, and such soft peaches are difficult to see on the market. And the peach that is soft like this, everyone present, let alone see it, has never heard of it.
Some people even thought darkly in their hearts: It can't be a rotten peach! Millions, buy a few cars of rotten peaches, it's really a rich man's style!
When Daddy Zhang heard Zhang Chutian say that it was "a thousand yuan a catty", he felt that Zhang Chutian was either deceived or crazy; Looking at the rotten peach again, his heart sank even more, and the peach fragrance that came to his face had long been ignored by him, leaving only Tie Qing's complexion.
In the past few years, Zhang Chutian has taken care of his own store, worked hard, and still made a little achievement, even if he was in a bad mood at this time, but Daddy Zhang still didn't want to save face for his children in front of the staff, and only quietly watched Zhang Chutian scream and scold eagerly, and went to unload the goods in person.
After a few truckloads were unloaded, everyone else walked out of the warehouse, and Zhang Chutian, who was sweating profusely, found out that his father's face was cold, and he had been standing by and looking at him coldly.
"Dad, why are you still here. You go and rest first, I'll be enough here. He realized it later, and he had already forgotten his father, and he didn't expect what happened to Daddy Zhang's cold gaze.
"Rest? Still resting? The foundation that Lao Tzu has worked hard for more than ten years to save is about to be lost by you! How do you tell me to rest? ”
"Dad, what did you say?" Zhang Chutian was stunned for a moment, his face dazed.
He didn't know what his father was talking about, and even thought that Daddy Zhang was sick and talking nonsense?
Seeing that Zhang Chutian was at a loss, and didn't know what was wrong, Father Zhang was even more angry in his heart, and said coldly: "Let me ask you, you tell me honestly, what you said earlier, this peach is 'a thousand yuan a catty', is it true?" ”
"yes." Zhang Chutian suddenly thought that his father thought that this peach was expensive, and was about to explain, "Dad, you listen to me......"
"What do you say?! You said a thousand yuan a catty, these goods here, at least count, how can there be thousands of nearly ten thousand catties, right? You're spending millions in the store, I'm afraid it's not enough!? Daddy Zhang's face became colder and colder, and he felt that his child, who looked fine a few years ago, didn't know what to do now, not only embezzled funds, but also couldn't tell lies.
Daddy Zhang now wonders if his child has been stained with something that should not be touched, and has embezzled the store's funds. He no longer believed that Zhang Chutian, who was not a stupid brain, would be deceived by someone with "a thousand yuan and a pound of peaches".
The more he thought about it, the more it became.
"Dad, this is the goods I took from an old classmate. He looked down on the money, and saw that I didn't have so much money, so he gave me the goods first. That one million is a deposit. Zhang Chutian hadn't said it yet, Zhou Yi was worried that he wouldn't be able to sell it at that price and lose money, so he told him early that if it didn't sell well, he wouldn't want the final payment.
Daddy Zhang became more and more impatient, and snorted coldly: "10 million goods, 1 million people gave you?" Zhang Chutian, Zhang Chutian, you can't help but think too highly of yourself! I see you are going back the more you live! What about contracts? Where is the contract? Show me! ”
Zhang Chutian and Zhou Yi have a very good relationship, and this business is going fast, and they have agreed verbally, but they don't want to sign any contract seriously.
Father Zhang looked at him and became even more angry.
"What are you doing with this money, tell me! I can't say it, I'll spend it with you today, don't go! "Daddy Zhang, don't look at the wide heart and fat body, but once it comes to the issue of children's education, he will become serious.
At this moment, he looks like an angry lion, with fur erupting, both angry and mighty. Although Zhang Chutian felt that he hadn't done anything wrong, when he saw Daddy Zhang's appearance at the moment, he immediately recalled the painful experience when he was a child, and couldn't help but tremble, and his eyes fluttered.
Daddy Zhang has already decided that he has a ghost in his heart.
Because of his body, Daddy Zhang, who has been taking vegetarian food as the main dish all the year round, has a temper that is not as hot as before, but now, the anger that has not been released for several years has erupted like a volcano, grabbed a wooden stick, and smashed it on Zhang Chutian's head!
Zhang Chutian didn't expect that his father hadn't been powerful for several years, and his temper was even hotter than before, so he was shocked and hurriedly dodged.
Zhang Chutian dodged it, but Daddy Zhang's stick still fell to the ground, and it was falling on the ground full of packaging boxes.
Zhang Chutian was heartbroken.
He saw that Daddy Zhang was about to smash it with a stick, and behind him, there were boxes full of peaches, and he wanted to dodge it, so he couldn't help but hesitate a little in his heart.
Zhang Chutian was tired of finding this peache, which he regarded as a high-end fruit, and he didn't rest much for a few days, and his heart was tied to the peach; Originally, he was still hiding and hiding, wanting to wait for the thing to be done and surprise his father, but he didn't expect that when the thing started to be done, he was wronged by Daddy Zhang, and he didn't listen to his explanation at all. Hit me on the head! Kill and regenerate a good one! ”
Daddy Zhang's anger had already disappeared with the first stick, but at this time, when he heard Zhang Chutian's words, the anger rose again.
Although the anger was great, he didn't have the heart to knock Zhang Chutian's head open with a stick after all.
"You still dare to talk back to me, do you really think I don't dare to kill you?"
Zhang Chutian knew Daddy Zhang's fiery personality, and knew that if he dared to say a word again, his father would definitely give him a hard beating. There were many such lessons when I was a child.
After all, he still had reason, thinking that "heroes don't suffer immediate losses", and his tone softened, "Dad, listen to my explanation, okay?" ”
Zhang Chutian's tone softened, and Father Zhang didn't really want to beat this kid to death, so he borrowed the donkey from the slope, still carrying a wooden stick in his hand, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to your explanation." ”
Zhang Chutian thought about it, and suddenly felt that it seemed that no matter how he explained, he couldn't explain it to Daddy Zhang, who believed that he had done something bad; Just when Daddy Zhang was impatient, a small breeze came out of the warehouse, and the rich peach fragrance disturbed Zhang Chutian's snort.
Zhang Chutian looked at the packaged peaches piled up on the ground, suddenly patted his head, picked up a package from the ground, opened it, took out an intact peach, and sent it to Daddy Zhang, and said, "You taste it, see if it's worth a thousand yuan a catty?" How about a snow peach like you've ever eaten? ”
Daddy Zhang went to take the peach with one hand, and the hand used a little force, and the slightly tough peach skin couldn't withstand this grasp, and fell directly, the clear peach juice and bright yellow peach flesh gushed out, and the peach fragrance became more and more intense, and Daddy Zhang's heart was full of relish.
At this time, he found that this peach fragrance was so attractive, even if it was just such a smell, it would smell the saliva in his mouth.
A gluttonous worm crawled out from under his tongue and mouth, greedily sniffing the smell of peaches in the air, urging him to swallow the peaches into his belly.
With his other hand, he caught the broken peach, and regardless of the mess in his hand, he licked the crystal yellow amber peach flesh with his big mouth.
If the peach flesh is jelly, it is much more delicate than jelly; If there is substance, as soon as you touch the tongue, as soon as you touch the liquid in the mouth, it will suddenly turn into a pool of dew, naughtily tease his tongue, and when the tongue is far from enjoying its sweet moisture, it slides into the throat, goes straight down the twelve-story building, and enters the place of reincarnation of the five grains, which is truly dissolved, integrated into all parts of Daddy Zhang's body, and takes a real sauna for hundreds of millions of cells in his body.
"Hmm~~" A slight sigh came from Daddy Zhang's mouth, "I didn't expect that there are such delicious peaches in this world." If you eat this bite of peach, you will not live this life in vain! "The more people like him know the goods, the more they can understand the goodness of this peach. If those villagers in Qingshui Town eat this peach, they will only think it is delicious and want to eat it again, but they have no plan to how good it is and how valuable it is.
He looked at the only remaining peach skin and a peach pit in his hand, rubbed it for a while, and didn't care about the mess in his hand, but sighed: "Could it be the peach that fell from the Heavenly Palace?" ”
Zhang Chutian looked at Daddy Zhang's appearance, and a smile bloomed on his fat face, like a big chrysanthemum, and asked with a smile: "Dad, do you think this is worth a thousand yuan a catty?" ”
Daddy Zhang glanced at him, "Pig brains!" This thing can be bought for a thousand dollars a pound? Legend has it that the peach of the Queen Mother of the West is like this! He affirmed.
"This good thing, 10,000 is fucking cheap!"
"There is this God-given peach, this time, Lao Tzu is going to do a big one!" Daddy Zhang was full of energy, as if he was ten years younger, and a raging fire flashed in his eyes again, illuminating the entire warehouse......
