Chapter 49: Hu's Farm (2)
Hua Zihui's beating is over.
Mr. Hu asked Hua Zixuan to sit down, and asked Hua Zihui to sit with him.
Wu Wei called Hua Zihui to sit beside her and chatted with her.
Mr. Hu saw that Hua Zixuan was extraordinary, and he liked it very much, so he asked him to sit next to him.
The red liquid in the cup was wine, and Gasol said to Hua Zixuan: "Zixuan, this wine is made by themselves, what is it called...... Wild berry wine. The taste is much better than beaded fruit wine. ”
Gasol pointed to the small red fruit on the table and said to Hua Zixuan: "This fruit is brewed, Mr. Hu said, this is unique to Mars." ”
Hua Zixuan looked at the fruit bowl on the table, there were some red and green fruits, the small red wild berries were smaller than the strawberries on the earth, and the skin looked rougher. The green beaded fruit, Hua Zixuan has seen it a few times, but he has never tasted it.
He got up and reached out, grabbed a small wild berry and a string of beaded fruits, and savored them.
Both fruits have no pits and are soft and soft, while the beaded fruit is sweet and astringent, and the small wild berries are sweet and refreshing.
He took another sip of the small wild berry wine, which was slightly sweeter and better than the sour beaded fruit wine.
Gasol on one side has already drunk a few glasses in a row, and if he meets someone who doesn't cost money, he must drink enough.
Gasol turned his head to Hua Zixuan and said, "Why doesn't Punk sell small wild berry wine there, I love to drink this." ”
Mr. Hu heard their conversation and said, "The fruit of the little wild berry is very delicious, it is the best-selling fruit on Mars, the demand is high, the price is naturally high, and the price of the wine is also high, and this kind of small wild berry wine can only be drunk in high-end restaurants." ”
After hearing this, Hua Zixuan drank it all, looked at the empty cup, and said, "That...... I've got a few more drinks!"
There was a servant holding a porcelain pot containing small wild berry wine, waiting at the table, and he immediately poured it for Hua Zixuan.
Mr. Hu sat at the head of the long table, and Wu Ling sat opposite him, which was the position of the guest of honor.
The rest of the people were lined up on both sides, Hua Zihui and Wu Wei were next to each other, and the two of them seemed to be discussing clothes, chatting very much.
Wu Ling was eating pastries, I don't know how long he hadn't eaten this, and he ate with relish.
Mrs. Hu said to Wu Ling: "Mr. Wu, I am preparing a big meal in the kitchen, and I have eaten too many dim sum, but I can't eat meat." ”
"That's right!" Wu Ling put the last piece in his mouth, rubbed the crumbs on his hand, suddenly remembered something, chewed something, and said, "Woo...... Li Wei, what about the products you brought to Mr. Hu?"
In fact, Li Wei had already been in a hurry to introduce his fertilizer, so he got up and said, "Mr. Hu has to send two people to move with me." ”
When Mr. Hu heard that there was something to give him, he was also very curious, so he hurriedly sent a few servants to move things with Li Wei.
When Mr. Hu saw that it was two bags of fertilizer, he was very happy and said: "Fertilizer, this is the best gift, with it, my dealer will thrive." ”
Mrs. Hu: "Mr. Wu, I invite you to be a guest, you have brought us such valuable gifts, we ...... I really don't want to go. ”
"It's nothing. Wu Ling smiled, didn't hold back, reached out and took a piece of pastry, and ate it deliciously.
Mr. Hu said with respect: "The total price of the gift that Mr. Wu gave me today is almost 100 gold coins. ”
Wu Wei interjected: "I just hope that you will be kind to my Zihui sister in the future." ”
Wu Ling glanced at Wu Wei, meaning, "You speak so bluntly." ”
Mr. Hu smiled ashamedly, "I really didn't expect Zihui to be beaten this time." ”
Hua Zixuan: "Mr. Hu, when I get the King's Cup, I will come to redeem my sister." ”
Mr. Hu: "Zixuan, when you get the King's Cup, I will be your loyal fan at that time, how can I still ask for your ransom." Alas, with ......"
Everyone looked at Mr. Hu.
Mr. Hu: "That's it," he said to Mrs. Hu: "You take Zihui into the city tomorrow, spend ten gold coins to get her a free civil certificate, and redeem her, and in the future, Zihui will enjoy the treatment of a young lady in our house." ”
He asked Hua Zixuan again, "How is it, is this okay?"
Hua Zixuan picked up his glass, "Thank you, Mr. Hu, I toast you." ”
Mr. Hu clinked glasses with Hua Zixuan and said, "A toast to the future winner of the King's Cup." ”
And they were all happy.
Li Wei: "Uh...... It's time for me to talk about fertilizer, right?"
Only then did everyone turn their attention to Li Wei.
Wu Ling interjected: "These two bags of fertilizer are made by Dr. Li Wei. ”
Mr. Hu and Mrs. Hu looked surprised, "I made it myself, how about the effect, this thing is not a random thing, in case there is a little mistake, but it will affect the harvest." ”
Next, Li Wei gave everyone a popular science lesson, the main content is that the role of chemical fertilizer is to supplement the trace elements in the soil, so as long as the trace elements in the fertilizer are properly proportioned, there is no problem.
Mr. Hu and Mrs. Hu nodded again and again.
Li Wei asked Mr. Hu, "How much did you buy a bag of compound fertilizer like this before?"
Mr. Hu: "The regular channel is 20 gold coins, and the smuggling is 15 gold coins. ”
Li Wei: "My fertilizer only needs 10 gold coins, and my fertilizer has a higher content of trace elements, and the same land only needs less dosage. ”
Mr. Hu: "If that's what the doctor said, that's a great thing. As you know, the coalition government does not allow Mars to develop industry, and all manufactured industrial products have to be shipped from Earth, which undoubtedly increases the burden on Martians. ”
Li Wei: "Mr. Hu, I suggest you take a piece of land first and try it with my fertilizer to see how it works." By the time the autumn harvest arrives, you'll know the effect. ”
Mr. Hu: "No, no, you don't have to wait until autumn, as long as you reach the seedling stage, you can know the effect;
If the experiment is successful, I will recommend your fertilizer to the surrounding farms. ”
"That's great!" Li Weixi said, "uh...... Otherwise, Mr. Hu, how about you be my agent? I'll give you eight gold coins and let you make a profit of two gold coins. ”
Mr. Hu was very excited when he heard this, "This is a profitable business. He raised his glass, "Come on, Doctor, let's have a toast and wish our great deal a success." ”
After toasting, Mr. Hu said to Mrs. Hu: "You go to urge the kitchen, it's time to serve." ”
After a while, the servant brought a large basin of chicken, a large basin of pork ribs, a large basin of fried beef meatballs, and a large plate of pasta.
Hua Zixuan and the others forcibly held back Harazi and waited to eat. These dishes are nothing on Earth, but this is on Mars, and they are treated at the imperial level.
Mrs. Hu came with their children, a son and a daughter, and the son was held by Mrs. Hu because his foot was broken.
The children were to be next to their father, and the servants brought them stools.
Their son's name was Jia Le, and he sat between Mr. Hu and Hua Zixuan.
Hua Zixuan saw that Jiale looked cute and stroked his little head.
"Everyone, pray. Mrs. Hu said.
Gasol asked, "Well, with all due respect, who should I pray to, God?"
Mrs. Hu: "Martians don't believe in God, we believe in Lady Luck."
Everyone who survives Mars has been blessed by Lady Luck. ”
Mr. Hu took over the conversation: "When we came to Mars, the travel conditions were much worse than now, the spacecraft at that time was much slower than now, and it took more than half a year to get from the earth to Mars at the earliest, and the conditions on board were also poor. ”
Mrs. Hu: "Every living Martian should be grateful to Lady Luck for guarding us, otherwise, maybe one day a meteorite will fly and hit Mars, which will destroy the fragile ecological environment of Mars, and at that time, all people on Mars will die." ”
Gasol: "What does Lady Luck look like, and what should we say to her?"
Mrs. Hu: "Lady Luck is in people's hearts, and everything she says to her is formalism, so you have to feel it with a sincere heart." ”
Everyone followed the example of Mrs. Hu, clasped their hands, closed their eyes and was silent.
After a moment, Mrs. Hu opened her eyes, "It's time to eat." ”
There is a spoon in the large pot where the vegetables are served, and everyone uses the spoon to put the meat on the plate in front of them.
Hua Zixuan helped Jiale next to him.
Jia Le said, "Thank you, brother!"
Hua Zixuan said to Jiale: "I am your brother Zihui teacher, she took you out to play and hurt your foot, can you forgive her?"
Jiale Child's innocent face was very cute, nodded his little head, and said, "Well, I have forgiven Sister Zihui." He even gave me a gift. ”
"Yes!" Hua Zixuan said, "What gift did she give you?"
Jia Le took out a jade pendant from her collar, which was the longevity lock jade pendant that Hua Zixuan gave her when Hua Zixuan and Hua Zihui broke up at the auction.
Hua Zixuan was still angry when he saw Hua Zihui giving the pendant to others. He also knew that his sister didn't care about this thing, and his father gave one to each child, but her one had long since disappeared.
Mr. Hu saw the jade pendant, his expression was stunned, and he said to Jiale: "Son, can you give your father a gift from your sister Zihui?"
"You're going to give it back to me. Jia Le was very obedient and handed the pendant to Mr. Hu.
Mr. Hu looked at the pendant and said, "This jade is Martian jade. ”
Hua Zixuan was quite surprised when he first heard the news, and then thought about it, I heard that Martian jade is much better than earth jade, and my father used jade with better texture to create a pendant for himself, which is not surprising.
Wu Ling: "The jade on Mars was smuggled to Earth by that guy Wang Heng." ”
Mr. Hu: "No, the jade smugglers are not only Wang Heng, Wang Heng is only the largest in the Hellas area, and the rest of the human settlements are also entrenched in other jade merchants."
For example, the Fahrenheit Trading Company near the equator. ”
Hua Zixuan couldn't help but be shocked when she heard Hua's Trading Company, and she was also surprised to see Hua Zihui.
The Fahrenheit Trading Company was their father's company, and they didn't expect that their father was also involved in Mars smuggling.
Mr. Hu continued to hold the jade and said: "The jade in my hand is the equatorial jade, which is very different from the Hellas jade. ”
Wu Ling: "Oh, Mr. Wu is very interested in jade?"
Mr. Hu: "To tell you the truth, back then, my wife and I came to Mars as free people to work for the Fahrenheit Trading Company, and what we were engaged in was jade mining. ”
