Chapter 163: Ripe (26 more)
In mid-June, a small part of the watermelon in Zhang Hui's melon field was ripe, Gu Yunzhi went to the field to take a look, and Zhang Hui specially opened a melon for Gu Yunzhi and Xie Chaosheng.
The watermelon is sweet and sweet, and many people in the neighborhood are curious to come and see, after all, growing watermelons on the farm, Zhang is the first to go home. After all, most people's idea is to save trouble and send the grain planted to the grain station, and they don't need to be tired from running around, and they need to go outside to sell melons and fruits.
Gu Yunzhi decided to pick off this part of the cooked ones first and sell some of them before they were listed in a large area.
Agreed with Zhang Hui is five cents a catty, Zhang Hui and her husband were very excited when they heard that this was going to be collected, for them, this is the real income, although they bought some barley before, but they were not too satisfied, after all, the price of barley is limited.
Before Gu Yunzhi came, although they signed a contract, they were still up and down, especially Hu Chengzhi, who was not very bold, he asked some people what they thought about growing watermelons, and felt that no one was stupid enough to buy watermelons, and felt that their husband and wife must have been deceived, but when they asked the leaders of the factory, they did not have such courage, so during that time, Hu Chengzhi couldn't sleep all night, and his hair fell a lot, and now seeing Gu Yunzhi and Xie Chaosheng driving a big truck over, he finally took a reassuring pill, Although he didn't see Chief Gu, what he was thinking in his heart was that this kind of thing was that Chief Gu didn't show up, which was to avoid suspicion.
He didn't think of the idea of buying watermelons at all, and Gu Yunzhi was the only one.
Xie Chaosheng also went to the field to help, the three of them were busy for more than an hour, and finally picked a truckload of watermelons, watermelons are big and round, each weight is not light, this batch is the experimental melon field of the agriculture and forestry department, so from cultivation to cultivation, and then to branch planting, each process is quite rigorous and serious, and when the melon is bigger, I am afraid that the melon will grow more, the nutrient distribution will be uneven, the watermelon will not grow big, and the fruit will be screened by Zhang Hui and his wife. At the beginning, Hu Zhicheng really cut off the small watermelon with tears.
Now he is full of pride when he is holding the big watermelon, a truck can only hold 4,000 catties of melons, so when it is full of 4,000 catties, Xie Chaosheng stopped loading the truck, and asked them to continue to pile the ripe melons on the ridges, and then come over to get them after they finished selling.
So this time, I first settled the melon money of 4,000 catties, and gave Zhang Hui and his wife 200 yuan first.
Holding the money in their hands, although it is only a small part of the watermelons in the ridges, it is also their hope for a new life. If they sell all the watermelons on 20 acres of land, they can become 10,000 yuan households, which is the dream of many people.
Gu Yunzhi originally wanted to send the watermelon to Tang Zhenting first, after all, Tang Zhenting was the first to order, but their truck was stopped on the road, these people saw that the watermelon transported in the truck was very novel, so they stopped the truck to inquire about the price, and when they heard that the watermelon was a dime and a pound, they felt that it was a little expensive, but after tasting the taste, they didn't say a word and asked Xie Chaosheng to send the watermelon to the nearby dock.
It turns out that these people are nearby fishermen, who like sweets all year round, and the watermelon is sweet and juicy. thank
Chaosheng sent the watermelon to the wharf, there was a big scale on the wharf, and several people carried the watermelon off the car and put it in the sack to weigh it, and finally bargained to return it to one cent and sixty-one catties.
Due to the bumps on the road, a few watermelons were damaged, so the final weight of the scale was 3,970 catties of melons, which was equivalent to the loss of 30 catties of watermelons. A dime and sixty-one catties of melons, three thousand nine hundred and seventy catties, this is six hundred and thirty-five.
