【Chapter 008】 Go to the city to sell vegetables

The Tongjiang River rushes from the distant plateau, and before arriving at Qingyun Town, it shuttles between the mountains and mountains, with turbulent water and dangerous shoals. After the Jiaolong Gorge, which had been ten miles west of Qingyun, jumped down, it slowly became tame and continued to run towards the eastern ocean.

The Xiaotong River flows into the Tongjiang River from south to north at Qingyun, and Qingyun, where the two rivers meet, has naturally become an important water and land transportation hub, and has played a huge role in history. However, with the passage of time, the shipping capacity of Tongjiang during the wet season is only 1,000 tons, and there is not much advantage in transportation costs, coupled with the secondary roads, highways and electrified railways on the north bank have been completed and opened to traffic, and the water transportation of Tongjiang has gradually declined, leaving only these barges ferrying on the river.

The cost of crossing the river is one dollar, plus five cents for bicycles, and it is not easy for these barges to rely on the villagers' money to support their families. The occasional car or farm machinery across the river is a big business.

Because most of the upstream passes through the inaccessible primeval forest, there is no industrial pollution, and the current Tongjiang River is still clear, and the blue water is like a sapphire. Because the riverbed is relatively flat, the Tongjiang River is not very deep near Qingyun, even in the center of the river, it is only about five or six meters.

The Tongjiang River, which is in the flood season, is quite wide, hundreds of meters, and the barge spews black smoke for several minutes, and finally docks at the north shore wharf.

Liu Rui did not rush to get off the boat with the villagers, but was the last to push the cart along the lap board from the steep cement slope to the embankment. There is still a distance of two kilometers between the river embankment and the secondary road leading to the county seat, and the road condition is slightly better than that from Qingyun to Shangliang Village, and the flat gravel road has made Liu Rui's speed speed up a lot.

Coming to the secondary road, along the way are farmers carrying vegetables, corn and other agricultural products, today is the county town of the market, everyone is rushing into the city to sell things.

Liu Rui, who has already had many experience in selling vegetables, rode six or seven kilometers on the secondary road, and then came to the bazaar in the east of the city in the traffic and crowds.

Before nine o'clock in the morning, it was the most lively time in the bazaar, Liu Rui did not hesitate, found the administrator of the mall, and rented a temporary mobile stall for five yuan. Although it doesn't cost money to set up a roadside stall outside the market, it is often encountered by the chengguan sweeping the streets, which often makes people turn their backs and make chickens fly and dogs jump.

Besides, there is no shelter outside, the sun in August is as poisonous as anything, and the vegetables will completely wilt after ten minutes of exposure to the sun, where can they be sold at a good price? After thinking about it in my heart, the five yuan was worth it, and Liu Rui was not so picky.

Liu Rui put the vegetables from the car body to the stall, and immediately attracted many aunts and aunts who chose vegetables nearby.

Perhaps because of the magical effect of the space spring water, even if Liu Rui's dish is not drenched, it is still a top fresh water spirit, which is impressive.

"Young man, your tomato is so big? Is it a drug? A middle-aged aunt asked, carrying a basket and picking up a tomato.

"How can it?" These dishes are all grown by us, and we sell them when we can't finish them. Liu Rui said with a smile: "If you don't believe it, I'll eat one raw for you!" ”

Anyway, he was tired from riding, and his throat and eyes were on fire, so Liu Rui simply picked up a tomato, wiped it with his sleeve, and took a bite of it.

The juice splashed, and a faint sweet fragrance permeated the air, even in the polluted bazaar, this fragrance was still as eye-catching as fireflies in the night.

Seeing Liu Rui eating sweetly, the aunt was also a little moved, picked up one and tasted it, and was completely attracted by it.

After taking a bite of the tomatoes, she believed Liu Rui's words, these pure-tasting tomatoes could be eaten in the twenty or thirty years when fertilizers and pesticides were not rampant. With the advancement of science and technology, the yield of agricultural products is getting higher and higher, but the taste is getting worse and worse. She hadn't eaten such delicious tomatoes for many years, and Liu Rui said that it was grown from her own farm, and she was convinced.

"Tomatoes weigh me two catties, and this cucumber and water spinach too!" The aunt ordered several vegetables in a row, kept filling her basket, and weighed half of the eggs brought by Liu Rui.

The aunt's big purchase quickly made the housewives who were familiar with her look sideways, and after listening to her introduction, everyone also rushed to buy in front of Liu Rui's stall.

Seeing that the aunt was sparing no effort to help him do publicity, Liu Rui secretly thought that the tomato he had just now was really not wasted.

Although there were more people in front of the stall, Liu Rui was not flustered at all.

He has excellent mental arithmetic, as long as he weighs the dishes well, he can calculate the money by dividing it by two, and he collects money and finds money with his hands and feet, in an orderly manner, without any mistakes.

In less than an hour, there were no more than 100 catties of vegetables brought by Liu Rui, and the speed was so fast that Liu Rui was a little unexpected. In the past, it took him a morning to sell dozens of catties of vegetables, and he didn't necessarily be able to sell them all.

This time, the housewives didn't bargain too much, so they bought it directly when they were optimistic, which made Liu Rui a little surprised. Of course, as a means of promotion, Liu Rui paid a lot of free tomatoes and cucumbers.

After counting the more than 100 yuan in his hand, Liu Rui put away his things, rode out of the bazaar, and went straight to the Agricultural Bureau.

Since he obtained the Shennong space yesterday, Liu Rui has been thinking about how to make better use of it!

Especially this morning, I found that after the space spring watered, the vegetables grew well and the taste became more delicious, all of which made Liu Rui's mind come alive.

It is a foregone conclusion to return to the countryside to farm, but how to make a fortune as soon as possible has always been a problem for Liu Rui to think about. The family is burdened with heavy debts, the expenses of his younger siblings in school are increasing year by year, and the medical expenses of his parents seem to be a bottomless pit, all of which make Liu Rui feel pressured.

Although he is smiling every day, he still bears a lot of pressure in his heart.

got the Shennong space, as if a window was opened in front of Liu Rui's eyes.

There is light, water, and air in the space, all of which are suitable for the growth of plants, so can we plant some crops in the space?

This time when he entered the city, Liu Rui planned to buy some seeds and try to plant them in the space.

If you can grow crops in the space, it is equivalent to having an extra piece of land, which can also increase your income to some extent. According to the magical effect of the space spring, the crops planted on the black soil should not be far behind.

Planting crops in Shennong space makes Liu Rui look forward to it!

ps: Now it's the ninth place, can the villagers help the little one to get another one?
