Chapter 385: One Hundred Dollars a Pound
All the way to the vegetable base, I found that it was indeed very different from before.
The dirt road that used to lead to the field has now been turned into a concrete road, which is connected to the road not far to the south, which can make it easier for vehicles to travel to and from the vegetable base.
There is a good saying, "if you want to get rich, build the road first", and now the traffic is smooth, which is naturally beneficial to the future development of the vegetable base.
Fortunately, it's just a short period of time, and it doesn't take a lot of money, and with the value of two sisters, I don't care about this.
The planting area has expanded a lot, and it is surrounded by a protective net more than three meters high, and the entrance is a large arch several meters wide, which can be used by large trucks to pull vegetables, and there are several big words on the iron welded signboard above the arch: Good Sister Vegetable Garden!
Qin Yi was secretly happy, this name was really good, easy to understand.
There are also several bungalows built on the side of the door, which are supposed to be where the caretakers live on weekdays.
Some weeping willows and plants are planted at the door, which are very clean and tidy, at least the external image is very good, which can give people a very formal and professional impression, and has a little prototype of the base.
Qin Yi's parents often came and were familiar with the caretakers from nearby villages, so they said hello and went in.
Of course, Susa and Kolo are a few foreign beauties, and they also make a few caregivers strange, although they have long heard of the eldest brother of the owner and married a foreign daughter-in-law, but they have not seen much!
A few people have gained knowledge today, and they think it is a good thing to talk about, and they plan to go back and talk to the villagers.
Qin Yizi didn't care what others thought, he took his family and friends into the vegetable garden, raised his eyes, and found that this place was somewhat similar to the vegetable garden of the ranch, and it should be that the sisters borrowed the planning of the ranch vegetable garden.
In the rattan vegetable area, a neat vegetable stand has been built, and many mushrooms are planted on the ground under the rattan trellis. It's a rational use of space.
Flowers and fruits, stems and leaves, roots and tubers, each major category of vegetables are separated from each other, and it is easier to manage and harvest, and the overall planning is quite reasonable.
Of course, a small piece of watermelon in front of Qin Yi and others is not suitable for building a rattan trellis, the amount is small, and it doesn't take that effort!
But today's big watermelons are growing fat one by one. The crisp and tender appearance is very attractive!
Angel and Betsy cheered early and threw themselves at the largest watermelon nearby, hugging and not letting go!
With that look of anticipation, Qin's mother and Qin's father were very distressed, and hurriedly went over to pick the big watermelon, planning to cut it for everyone to taste.
Seeing that his parents looked happy, Qin Yi didn't go to join in the fun, and let them do their work.
Maybe help your little granddaughter pick a big watermelon. Looking at the happy face of the little granddaughter is the simplest and most primitive happiness for them.
Anyway, a watermelon won't tire people.
However, watermelons are indeed not small. It was an oval with a flower skin, about thirty centimeters in diameter and forty or fifty centimeters long, and Dad Qin held it. It's like hugging a big doll!
Qin Yi felt that he had underestimated the size of this improved watermelon, and when he saw that his father was holding it, it seemed that the weight was not light, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help hold it.
This trust is the only way to know. Such a watermelon is thirty or forty pounds!
Good guy, just improve it, and you'll catch up with the size of Japan's Irizen watermelon?
Qin Yi was also a little surprised, such a weight, coupled with the basic principle of improving the product and being a high-quality product, it was definitely a super delicious big watermelon!
Haha, this year is a blessing!
Speaking of the vegetable garden of the farm, there are a lot of improved watermelons, if you take them out and sell them, they are absolutely very popular, and the wealth is wide!
"Wow, I knew it was big from a distance, but I really didn't expect it to be so big!"
The women were very strange to surround the big watermelons on the ground, and also took out their mobile phones to take pictures, all of them smiled, and the harvest was always happy!
Angel and Betsy were the most positive about the deliciousness, when Dad Qin came back with them, they followed all the way, and now that they were put on the ground, they also squatted down, touching the cool watermelon skin with their little hands, smiling, looking forward to the delicious food that was waiting for them.
Mother Qin went to the house at the entrance of the vegetable garden, found a kitchen knife and a cutting board, and began to cut watermelons for everyone.
"Click!"
With a knife down, with a crisp sound, the big watermelon was divided into two halves, revealing the tender red melon pulp wrapped in a thin melon skin, and the unique sweetness of watermelon also exuded, which made everyone feel happy.
The crisp, tender and juicy watermelon was divided into petals of almost the same size under Mother Qin's knife.
The girls who couldn't stand it for a long time pinched their little fingers and stood close.
However, although he drooled, he just stared at it obediently, and did not do it first, but waited for Qin's mother to cut half a watermelon before happily picking up a piece and letting it be eaten by grandparents, parents, and aunts one by one!
After receiving a lot of praise, he sucked down his small mouth with a smile and took a big bite!
The crisp and tender mouthful of watermelon went down, sweet and cool, and they narrowed their eyes and muttered with their small mouths: "Mmmm, it's so sweet, it's delicious!" ”
The adults also wanted to eat it for a long time, but at this time they were all welcome, they picked up a piece one by one, and their eyes were shining when they took a bite.
Qin Yi gnawed on the watermelon, that was really, it was a little similar to the second senior brother!
But he's happy in his heart, good guy, such a delicious watermelon, if he doesn't sell it for a hundred yuan a catty, he won't sell it if he is killed!
Hmph, little Japan's square watermelon can be sold for 860 US dollars a piece, our improved watermelon is definitely better than those little people, if it weren't for his lack of fame, he would be too little for a pound of 100 yuan!
This guy calculated in his heart: one hundred yuan a catty, a watermelon thirty or forty catties, can be sold for more than 3,000 yuan, and the farm has planted a large area, which can produce watermelons
The price is high, but there is absolutely no worry that no one buys, after all, it is positioned as a high-end, if you use this watermelon to make a fruit platter and sell it in Yefang's food health club, even if it is a plate of hundreds or thousands of yuan, then a lot of people are willing to come to a plate from time to time!
How many plates can a big watermelon make?
Qin Yi was thinking nonsense here, and the others were also surprised.
The old couple had already tasted it and knew that this kind of watermelon, like vegetables, was absolutely delicious, so it was no surprise, but Susa and Collo, who had eaten such a crisp and sweet watermelon for the first time, were full of praise.
The women were more elegant than Qin Yi, but the speed was also very fast, and within a few seconds after Qin Yi eliminated a piece of watermelon, they all finished eating, wiping their mouths, a little unsatisfied.
Mother Qin saw it and cut the watermelon with a smile again, "You can eat as much as you want, you originally grew it by your own family!" ”
Today, the daughter-in-law and the little granddaughter came home, and Qin's mother was too happy, if it was usual, she would not make her own decisions, after all, the two daughters have already married a family, and the vegetable garden has nothing to do with the old couple of the Qin family!
Of course, when it comes to breaking the sky, it's just eating watermelon, and there's nothing to do.
Seeing that grandma began to cut watermelon again, the girls held and ate more than half of the piece, jumped up and came up, staring while eating, for two snacks, one piece is not enough!
After eating the second piece, everyone lost the eagerness just now and began to taste it in small bites.
"This watermelon is so delicious!"
"Yes, that's right!"
"I've grown so big, it's the first time I've eaten such a delicious watermelon!"
The women were full of praise, Amanda and they still spoke English, and the old couple couldn't understand it, but the admiration and happy expressions on their faces could still be easily understood, and they didn't interject, laughing at their young people talking, while hugging the girls and eating watermelon.
Suddenly, Chloe raised the watermelon peel in his hand, and said with bright eyes: "Yi, I think that our watermelons sell for a hundred dollars a pound (about a catty), and we don't have to worry about selling them!" ”
"That's right, our watermelons are worth the price!"
Susa also nodded in agreement, after this period of exercise, her eyes have also been opened, knowing that the last thing rich people are afraid of is spending money to enjoy.
Qin Yi was speechless, feeling that his daughter-in-law was really stupid and bold, he thought that a hundred yuan a pound was enough to be black, but he didn't expect them to directly shout out the price of several times!
But seeing that Sarah, Amanda and the others all nodded in unison, he thought that maybe he could really sell it for a hundred dollars a pound! (To be continued.) )
