Chapter 514: Go to the provincial capital to sell watermelons

"It's also said that although there are bad watermelons every day, there are only one or two." Mu Shui nodded.

"Let's hire a small transport truck, run a day to the provincial capital, the provincial capital has a high consumption capacity, many families are rich in hand, but there are too few good things, now see seedless watermelon, a rare fruit, then you must buy one or two to try it."

"Yes, if it were me, I would definitely buy it." Mu Xiaoshu couldn't help but nodded.

"How much does that bag cost a car?" Zhou Shuilian is most concerned about how much money it will cost.

"The last time we transported the tractor, it was a big truck, and it was 500 yuan for a trip from the provincial capital, and I saw a minivan running alone at the station a few days ago, and I went to ask the price again, it should not exceed 500 yuan." Mu Xiu pondered for a moment and said.

"Five hundred dollars!! Grab money, how much money can this watermelon sell!! Zhou Shuilian exclaimed.

No wonder Zhou Shuilian will lose her temper, last year, Mu Xiu's watermelons were sold to the villagers according to a pound and a dime, and sold to the county seat for a pound and two cents, and last year a total of 9,600 pounds of watermelons were harvested, and the gross profit was 1,200 yuan.

"Mother, let's pull it to the provincial capital, we will definitely not sell it according to a dime a pound or two cents a pound, I set it for five cents a pound, a melon weighs eight pounds on average, that is, four yuan, there are more people in the provincial city who can afford to eat, we can pull five tons of melons on this trip, that is, 10,000 catties, roughly calculated, nearly 5,000 yuan." Mu Xiu's words surprised everyone.

"Five thousand dollars, can you make so much?" Mu Shui's voice trembled a little.

"Of course, but this is the gross profit, throw away those fertilizers, transportation losses, including food and accommodation in the provincial capital, the net profit of one trip should be more than 3,000 yuan." Mu Xiu said with a rough calculation in his heart.

"A pound and five cents, will it be too expensive?" Chen Jianqiang felt that he would not buy watermelons for five cents a pound, after all, ordinary watermelons were only 2 cents a pound, which was nothing more than spitting out seeds and taking a lot of trouble.

However, this seedless watermelon is indeed sweeter and juicier than ordinary watermelon, but it is not just a watermelon flavor, so why waste that money.

"There are many people in the provincial capital, the consumption power is much stronger than the county, now everyone is living well, the restaurants in the provincial capital are full all day long, a watermelon is much cheaper than going out to eat a restaurant, this seedless watermelon is many people have never seen it, have never heard of it, anyway, if I see it for the first time, I will try it." Mu Xiu said affirmatively.

"What if the melons can't be sold?" Mu Xiaoshu thought for a while and asked.

"Even if we sell half of it, we can make about 2,000 yuan, besides, how can we not sell it out? We can finally come back along the provincial capital and sell along the way, and when we get home, we are also sold out. Mu Xiu said with a smile.

Everyone was silent and began to think about Mu Xiu's words.

"Mother, sister, don't you want to go to the provincial capital? This truck can carry several people, and we even save the ticket, which is equivalent to taking a special car. Mu Xiu's words instantly moved several people present.

"Mother, last time my father said that the provincial city is now so good, didn't you say that you want to go and see it again? Why don't I accompany you and have a good look? Mu Xiaoshu said to Zhou Shuilian with bright eyes.

Mu Xiaoshu has only been to the provincial capital once in her last life, and the prosperity and liveliness there have always made her never forget, she really wants to go and see it again, last time because Mu Xiu went to pay back the money, and there were many things at home, this time she didn't go to see it, this time she said that she wanted to see it.

"Mother, I'm going too, I'm going too!" Huzi immediately rushed to say, as long as he can go out to play, Li Hu wants to go......

Mu Chunfeng pursed his lips and said: "What's so good about the provincial capital, it takes so long to sit in the car, I won't go if you invite me to go, it's better to read a book at home." ”

"I want to see my mother and my sister." Sanni hesitated for a long time, she finally mustered up the courage to speak, and after speaking, she looked at Mu Xiu with timid eyes, full of begging.

At that time, there were not many cars running transportation, and there were even fewer private cars, so there were few to check for overloading and overweight, Mu Xiu calculated, she, Mu Xiaoshu, Zhou Shuilian, Li Hu and Sanni, the cab should be sitting, Mu Shui and Uncle Chen just watched the watermelon in the back hold.

"I'm not going." Zhou Shuilian said suddenly.

"Why don't you go?" Mu Xiaoshu looked at Zhou Shuilian strangely.

"There are so many things at home, I went, what should Xiaohua do, wait for next time, Xiaohua has grown up, I'll take Xiaohua with me." Zhou Shuilian looked at Xiaohua, who was not yet three years old, and Xiaohua also looked at Zhou Shuilian, and smiled sweetly at Zhou Shuilian, and Zhou Shuilian immediately laughed too.

"Then my sister and I will go to the provincial capital with our two children."

"You're going to run errands, and you have to take two children with you, I'm not worried." Zhou Shuilian directly vetoed Mu Xiu's proposal.

"Then this time, Huzi won't go first." Mu Xiaoshu thought for a while and said.

"Mother, why am I again, why don't you take me there, I don't care, I'm going to go to the provincial city to play!" Huzi immediately disagreed.

"We're going to do serious things, not to play, taking Sanni to see Sanni's mother, when your second aunt starts school, I'll take you over again." Mu Xiaoshu knew that Huzi was naughty and mischievous, in case he didn't look good in the provincial capital and lost it, it would be difficult to find.

"No, I'm going to go this time, I'm obedient! I don't run around! "The tiger is still messing around.

"Have you finished your summer homework? School is about to start. Mu Xiu's face sank, she was also in favor of not bringing Huzi.

"Auntie, he hasn't done it yet! I said him yesterday! When Mu Chunfeng heard this, he hurriedly complained.

At that time, the summer vacation was different from the current summer vacation, there was only one month at that time, although Huzi was still in kindergarten, but the school year was about to go to the first grade, Mu Xiu was also for Huzi's good, assigned him some simple homework, and asked Mu Chunfeng to explain and supervise Li Hu to do it.

But Huzi is playful, and there are still a lot of homework that has not been written.

As soon as he heard that he was doing his homework, Huzi immediately became stunned, and he said listlessly to Mu Xiaoshu: "Mother, then you must take me next time." ”

"As long as you do your homework well and be obedient, your mother won't take you there, I'll take you." Mu Xiu's words made Huzi finally quiet down.

In this way, Mu Xiu went to the county seat to find a transport vehicle, and the rest of the people went down to the ground together and began to pick the remaining watermelons in the field.
