readx;?“ Are the persimmons ready?" asked Zitao. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Yes, second sister, you can taste it. ”
Ziwei took it and washed a persimmon for everyone. The sweet persimmon conquered them at once.
"It's delicious, Arlo. Zi Tao said excitedly.
In the evening, Zishu and they chopped firewood and went home, and Ziluo and the others told Zishu and Zixuan the good news.
After eating one, Zishu said: "The persimmons in the back mountain are enough for us to eat, and I used to think that the mountain at home was useless, but now the persimmon tree in the back mountain has become a treasure." Listening to the words of the eldest brother, Ziluo asked excitedly: "Eldest brother, is the back mountain ours?"
"Yes, from the house to the back mountain, including the back mountain, is our family, otherwise my father would not have built the house here. Zishu replied.
Ziluo wants to have more than ten acres of slope land between her home and the back mountain, but it is barren, and the back mountain is bigger, it seems that her own land is still a lot. Ziluo used to think that when she had money in the future, she would buy the slope and the back mountain, but it seems that she doesn't need it now. Ziluo felt that her family was one step closer to becoming rich.
"We have so much land in our house. Ziluo sighed.
"That's too much, little sister, our family has nothing left except the wasteland and the back mountain, and there is still an acre of dry land. In addition to the mountains and wasteland, the people in the village also have more than ten acres of paddy fields. Zixuan said funny.
"But now that I found that persimmons can be so delicious, the mountain has become a treasure. Zishu also said.
"Can we sell the persimmons? So we'll have money, and we won't be able to eat them anyway." Ziluo pretended to be a money fan and said.
"Little money fan, dropped the money in the pile?" Zi Tao teased Zi Luo.
"This seems to be really okay, big brother, don't you say?" Zixuan said after thinking for a while.
"Zixuan and Ah Luo are right, we can indeed take it to the town and sell it. Tomorrow we will continue to pick the persimmons back, and when they are ready, we will sell them, so that we will have food and cotton clothes for the winter. After this period of trading, Zishu's brain has also been activated a lot.
After everyone's discussion, it was finally decided that the current box of persimmons will be eaten at home, and the ones picked in the future will be sold. As for how to sell it, they still have to think about it before deciding.
Ziluo thought that the brewing method of this persimmon must be kept secret first, otherwise everyone will know about it, and the persimmon will not be sold for a price. I am also afraid that everyone knows that persimmons can be made delicious, what will they do if they come to their back mountains to steal them? When the time comes, how can their children keep such a big fortune. Wealth moves people's hearts, and the heart of harming people is indispensable, and the heart of preventing people is indispensable.
She was about to talk to her eldest brother about this issue, but Zixuan also thought of it: "Big brother, eldest sister, this method of soaking persimmons was discovered by the younger sister, we should keep it secret first, otherwise everyone will know about it, and it will not be our turn." ”
The brothers and sisters are all smart people, and everyone understands the powerful relationship here. So, everyone decided to keep it a secret first.
The next day, it was still dawn. The brothers and sisters didn't eat breakfast, so they picked up the basket and went to the back mountain to pick persimmons. Fortunately, they were far away from the village, and no one saw them picking persimmons until the sun rose and everyone came back from transporting persimmons.
In the morning, the brothers and sisters picked almost 500 catties of persimmons. In this way, several brothers and sisters went to pick persimmons in the morning and evening, and it took two days to pick almost 2,000 catties of persimmons in the back mountain. Ziwei and the others washed the big grain bucket used to hold grain at home before soaking all the persimmons, anyway, they don't have any food to hold now, they can wait for the persimmons to be soaked and then washed, and then use them to load grain when they have food in the future.
Then everyone discussed how to sell persimmons.
"I think you have to make the persimmons look good in order to sell them at a good price. Zixuan suggested.
Ziluo thought to herself that if Zixuan were a modern person, he would also be a businessman with brains. He now understands the importance of packaging.
"We can peel the persimmons, cut them into pieces, and sell them pound by pound, so that customers can eat them without washing and peeling. Isn't that good?" Ziluo suggested thinking of someone selling fruit like this in modern times.
"Alo's suggestion is good, but it shouldn't be too much. If you can't sell out, it's easy to waste. Ziwei said.
"Then let's do what Luo does first, but prepare a little less first. Zishu finally decided.
Finally, I waited for the market day on October 30. On this day, before dawn, Ziluo and her brothers and sisters all went out. Today, they have a lot of things to sell, including persimmons, prey, and the embroidery work done by Ziwei.
On the road, Zishu and Zixuan each carried a basket of fifty pounds of persimmons, and Ziwei also carried thirty pounds. Zitao's hands were not empty, carrying the burden of Ziwei and the embroidery work she had done in the past 20 days. Even Ziluo and Xiaoliu also took a stool each, ready to sit in the market when they were tired. Although the distance is a bit long and they are still carrying things, they are all happy because they are full of hope for the life that will come.
