Chapter 11 It's not bad to be a melon farmer

To tell the truth, Li Chen's luggage is really not much, and Wang Yingying has been living together since graduation, in addition to pots and pans, refrigerators, TVs and other furniture, Li Chen only has a few sets of fishing rods, and there will be no more clothes.

In the past, Wang Yingying also laughed at Li Chen, preferring to spend money to buy a fishing rod for a few hundred yuan rather than buy clothes with a decent appearance, fishing is an indispensable part of Li Chen's life.

Li Chen already has plans to go back to his hometown, except for some changes of clothes, the others are packed into the territory, and when he turns around, he only needs to say hello to Zhang Ning and send the salute back to his hometown.

Driving to Chen Xiaolong's restaurant, Li Chen entered the territory and picked two watermelons, and walked into the restaurant one by one.

Lan Feifei: "Li Chen, you are here as soon as you come, why do you still bring watermelons here, and what are you polite to your sister-in-law." ”

Li Chen: "I just met a fellow who sells watermelons, and I bought two at a friendly price, how it tastes!" ”

Lan Feifei took the watermelon in Li Chen's hand, and it happened that Chen's father was also in the store, and pulled Li Chen to the second floor to play chess.

Li Chen's chess skills are also a must, and he also won awards on behalf of the school in high school, and Mr. Chen is good at this, so every time he meets Li Chen, he has to kill a few games.

"Old man, it's your turn!"

Li Chen looked at Old Man Chen's face deflated, Li Chen was also very shocked in his heart, since the last time he ate crocodile meat, his memory has obviously improved a lot.

Li Chen could see when he played chess before, and the old man could also see all the changes after three moves, the two of them could be described as chess opponents, and the winners and losses were all in the number of five or five.

But today, Li Chen found that his budget capacity far exceeded before.

All the changes within five steps, Li Chen's mind is clear, the old man and Li Chen are no longer on the same starting line.

Li Chen could already foresee that he could master the old man in the sixth move, but the old man was thinking about how to break the game, and he didn't realize that he was about to lose this game of chess.

"Xiao Chenzi, your chess today is too subtle, right, did you deliberately let me before?"

The old man and Li Chen fought three games, but the result was three defeats and three losses, and they lost too badly.

Compared with usual, it is not a level, and the old man began to wonder if Li Chen had released water before.

"Old man, you're joking, it's just an accident."

This time, Li Chen learned to be obedient, and deliberately calculated that Luozi would be eaten after five steps, so that Li Chen could "lose" above board, and the old man would have a sense of accomplishment when he "won".

A beginner magic apprentice is not only an apprentice, the most important thing for a magician is mental power, how to cast magic without spiritual power.

After Li Chen was promoted to a beginner-level magic apprentice, his mental power was greatly improved, prompting his brain to be deeply developed, and his budget ability was not at the same level as before.

Just like the difference between 1G operation and 2G operation, the friends who play games understand the truth, the brain is a human processor, and the running memory can be advantageous if it is large, which is undoubted.

"Li Chen, where did you buy your watermelon, can you ......?"

The old man had just turned the tables on the game, and Chen Xiaolong knocked on the door and walked in, which might make the old man unhappy, because it was about business, and Chen Xiaolong couldn't care about it so much.

"What's wrong? Could it be that there is something wrong with watermelon? ”

Li Chen stopped the chess game in his hand, these watermelons Li Chen tried last night, there shouldn't be a problem, right?

"Here's the thing, because ......"

Lan Feifei took Li Chen's watermelon and put it in the backstage to chill it with other fruits, because Chen Xiaolong drank too much last night, in addition to some of the ingredients ordered in the morning, fruits and the like would not be delivered until the evening.

The chef saw that there were two watermelons in the freezer, so he appropriated the two watermelons as fruit plates, which led to trouble, and after the fruit plate was served, the guests ate the watermelons and asked for another one.

The waiter has already explained that these fruit plates are given for free, and it is customary not to give a second plate.

The guest asked for another plate, even if he paid, but now the waiter had no choice but to ask Lan Feifei to come out in person.

Customer first is the tenet of the service industry, and needless to say in the restaurant industry, a restaurant without repeat customers cannot be done

Since the guests are willing to pay for it, there is no reason not to sell it, so Lan Feifei asked the waiter to add another fruit plate.

The better watermelons in the market are about two yuan a catty, and a twenty-pound large watermelon is divided into twenty fruit plates, and each serving adds some fragrant fruits such as strawberries for twenty yuan.

Even at such a price, forty catties of watermelon and twenty catties of other fruits were divided among the six tables within an hour.

Instead, the guest also asked for a fruit plate by name, but there was no watermelon in the freezer, so how about going out to buy a few, but the guest didn't pay.

If it weren't for the last resort, Chen Xiaolong wouldn't have come here.

After Chen Xiaolong received a call from his wife, when he came from home, he also brought more than ten watermelons by the way, but when the new fruit plate was served, the guest said that it was not that taste.

If other diners are picky, it would be fine, but the private room on the second floor is the leader of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and several of them are uncles in the agency, all of which Chen Xiaolong can't afford to offend.

Hearing from his wife that those watermelons were brought over by Li Chen for everyone to try, Chen Xiaolong could only ask Li Chen for help.

"Watermelons are there, but ......"

Li Chen didn't expect that two watermelons could make such a big fuss, and there were more than 20 watermelons in the territory, but according to Chen Xiaolong's sales, no matter how many watermelons he could, he couldn't withstand it.

"But what is it, you can just say it, between our buddies, you are still embarrassed ......"

Chen Xiaolong thought that Li Chen was because of money, so it was difficult to open his mouth and tell him, if he really wanted to buy dozens of watermelons, it would be a thousand or hundreds of yuan.

Chen Xiaolong must marry Li Chen, no matter how good a brother is, this point must also be clear between public and private.

"Don't worry, listen to me first."

"Can you not be in a hurry, this is about to burn your eyebrows!"

"What kind of fire burns the eyebrows, you can't starve to death if you eat two slices of watermelon less, how can there be people who don't eat in the restaurant and only eat watermelon?"

This restaurant was founded by Mr. Chen, and many dishes and recipes are old men, who learned skills from all over the country, and when it comes to the kung fu of the old man in charge of cooking, it is not under Chen Xiaolong.

"Dad, look at what you said, I also know that this is a place to eat, but the watermelon is asked by name, but it is the ...... of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau."

The old man started from scratch, so he naturally understood the doorway, and the father and son turned their heads to look at Li Chen, who saw that Li Chen's hair stood on end.

"Let's put it this way, one of my fellow villagers is a melon farmer, this batch of watermelons is a trial product, the yield is not much, and the price is very expensive, so ......"

Li Chen can only use this excuse to fool the past, as for whether Chen Xiao wants to buy it or not, it depends on his personal wishes, to be honest, Li Chen doesn't recommend him to buy it, because the output is limited and cannot be supplied for a long time.

"That's it, you go buy me a few first, I'll ask for the price, and the rest will be eaten later?"

As a businessman, Chen Xiaolong also heard Li Chen's words, since the price is outrageously expensive, there is no need for him to slap his swollen face and become fat, as long as he can deal with the current level.

"Then you might have to wait a little longer, he's a little farther away from here."

Saying goodbye to the old man, Li Chen took the car keys and went downstairs, drove away from the restaurant and turned into a park.

"Huh...... Didn't you count twenty-eight last night, how did it become thirty-five watermelons? ”

Li Chen looked at the stream and saw that there were indeed four watermelon vines, except for the two that were picked in the morning, there should be twenty-six left, but now there are nine more watermelons, Li Chen felt very different.

"Come here, when did this watermelon grow?"

Li Chen asked the Flying Tiger under the tree, there were only Flying Tigers and Golden Scale Snakes in the territory, and the Golden Scale Snake was restrained by Li Chen and thrown in the corner, wondering what was going on, Li Chen could only ask the Flying Tiger.

"The owner doesn't know, this watermelon has always been so long!"

Hearing the innocent answer of the Flying Tiger, Li Chen didn't know what to say, the watermelon is so long, what he said really makes sense, who has ever seen nine watermelons grow overnight?

"Huh...... It grows so fast, and this territory is nearly 100 square meters, if you make good use of it, it will be good to be a melon farmer in the future! ”

Li Chen stared at a watermelon vine, the flowers on it had just disappeared, and a finger-sized watermelon hung on the vine, Li Chen felt that the watermelon would grow again, but it was difficult to see with the naked eye.

While picking watermelons, Li Chen calculated in his heart, how to use this territory, maybe in the future, he will have to rely on this territory.
