Chapter 179: Beautiful Watermelon

Go into the melon fields.

The melon field on Yemo's side is planted at a loose density, but the melon vines grow very well, and there are many watermelons left, which gives people the feeling of high-density planting.

When breeding, there are more than 6,000 melon seedlings every day. There are about 4,000 watermelons and more than 2,000 melons.

As for the reticulated melon, it is the last to raise seedlings alone.

It is the more than 4,000 watermelons that are about to ripen.

Although the area of the melon field is large, it is ripe in batches. The time difference before and after seedling raising, about half a month, the watermelon ripening time is ......

Kirin watermelons are planted first, and they will ripen in batches in two or three days. But after harvesting the watermelon, it is estimated that it will take a month.

Ye Mo bought 4 watermelon varieties, Kirin, Golden Beauty (Yellow Skin and Red Heart), Black Beauty, and Xinong No. 8. Ye Mo bought a large number of seeds, ordered them in physical stores, and when they were delivered, he also gave away some other varieties.

For example, Jin Linglong......

Jin Linglong is also a yellow peeled melon and a red melon heart. The golden watermelon is smaller than the golden beauty...

Jin Linglong, the fruit shape is more like a unicorn. And the golden beauty, the fruit shape is like a goose egg, and the black beauty fruit shape.

There are also two very special species, the golden bee and the little bee.

Golden bee, the skin is golden yellow, with vertical stripes. The little bee is very similar to the unicorn watermelon.

This kind of watermelon can be cultivated with multiple stubble. Moreover, one plant can keep multiple watermelons...... But this watermelon is very small, with a maximum of about 3 catties.

The bee watermelon is planted on the seventh day, but it is also about to ripen.

Entering the melon field, Gao Yuan and Guo Feng took a closer look at these watermelons......

The shape of the watermelon, as well as the skin, are very beautiful.

Melon vines are also very healthy......

Guo Feng flicked these watermelons with his fingers, and when he listened to the sound, he knew that they were not ripe.

"The shape of the watermelon is very beautiful, and compared with the hanging gourd in the greenhouse, it is really not bad at all." Gao Yuan said.

"Mr. Ye, can you cut a few watermelons for us to see." Mr. Guo said.

"No problem." Ye Mo said: "The watermelons here are all planted at the same time, customized... The maturity level is basically the same. ”

Ye Mo found three watermelons at random, and the watermelons here are almost the same in appearance and size, as if they were carved out of a mold.

Gao Yuan took out a fruit knife and cut one.

The skin of the watermelon is very thin, and it does not burst when you cut it......

Many thin-skinned watermelons, even if the melon pulp is not red (white and red), it is easy to burst with a knife.

Some people say that when the watermelon is ripe enough, it will burst open when the knife cuts it.

Others say that it is too much bulking agent and various hormones.

In fact, there are many reasons why the watermelon cracks with a knife. The main reason is that there is pressure in the melon......

It's normal to be stressed these days.

It is normal for a watermelon to crack with a single touch, and there are many reasons for this, but it does not hinder consumption.

The melon is white and red, and the color is uniform.

Guo Feng tasted it, this watermelon, before it is ripe, has a certain amount of sugar, and it tastes very sweet. Compared to some fully ripe watermelons, it is not bad.

However, it is not fully ripe, the taste is a little worse, and it has a slightly green taste. The unique taste of unripe watermelon...

The watermelon skin is thin, but it is tough, that is, it has strength.

The other two watermelons were bounced vigorously by Gao Yuan, but they did not burst......

More than 100 acres of watermelons, the area is very large, and it takes a lot of time to go through them all.

The two wandered around the watermelon field for more than half an hour, and then went to the melon field. The melon vines in the melon field are very lush, and there are melons hidden in them, these are emerald melons, and there are some other varieties...

Mainly emeralds, other varieties are given seeds.

The size of the melon is almost the same, and the weight of a single is estimated to be more than one catty.

Finally, there is the reticulated melon on the shelf.

These reticulated melons, Ye Mo uses more spiritual springs, and the melon vines grow the best. But because the melon vine grows too well, it blooms late...... Late results.

This situation is similar to Ye Mo's cultivation of large watermelons.

"During this time, we harvested all Yunnan watermelons." Gao Yuan said: "It's not that we go to the field to buy it, but there are special buyers who send the watermelons to the wholesale market, and then we, the wholesalers, go over and negotiate the price."

Gao Yuan has something to do during this time, and he has been here in Huacheng.

Guo Feng has been to the watermelon-growing areas of Yunnan, but ...... In the past, he couldn't harvest watermelons at all.

This year's watermelon price is good, but it is not yet ripe, and it is booked in the field.

It can't be said that the price of watermelons this year is good, but the amount of ripe watermelons during this period is relatively small.

Gao Feng looked at Ye Mo and said, "The watermelon in our market, the buyer sent the watermelon over, and the wholesale price of the whole vehicle today is 3.44 yuan." ”

Ye Mo here is a watermelon, a lot. With their strength, if the price is right, it will be no problem to eat them all......

"But the watermelon is a price for a few days, and when it is ripe, we will come back and take a look."

"Okay."

The two of them were also shocked here.

The watermelons here are so beautiful, only a few of the watermelons I've seen have a little bit of flaws.

The two got into the car and left Gaoshanping.

Gao Yuan said: "Ye Mo's watermelon, how is it?" ”

"Premium, first." Guo Feng exhaled and said, "That Ye Mo is also quite powerful, the lying melons in the field are even more beautiful than many hanging melons." ”

"A person who can grow a few hundred catties of a big watermelon must be a cow." Gao Yuan said: "What is the price of the watermelon sent to Guangdong now?" ”

For watermelon buyers, it is common not to say anything like a premium, first, second, or anything like that.

In the summer, watermelons are found everywhere, and they are usually not particularly expensive. But in different places, the price of watermelon is obvious......

This is especially true for those who have spent time in big cities.

In previous years, a piece of watermelon in a remote small county town was more than 1 catty, or even a few cents a catty. But in big cities like Shenzhen, seven or eight pieces of 1 catty watermelon are considered normal prices.

The main reason for this is transportation. Secondly, the watermelons bought in the big cities are basically perfect in the shape of the fruit.

There is such a saying: The best ones are all given to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

For example, the watermelons in Yunnan now, the best, are basically sent to Guangdong for sale. That is, the so-called special grade, first-class...

There is not much difference between a premium watermelon and a first-class watermelon. In most cases, there is no separate distinction between special grade and first grade, but collectively referred to as 'special grade' or 'first grade', which is more or less the same.

The watermelons they have are almost perfect in sensory index, and the most important thing is that they are sold to Guangdong, followed by Chengdu and Chongqing......

It doesn't matter if it's watermelon or other fruits, or whatever, the best ones are mostly sold in big cities. The level of consumption is high in large cities. Therefore, many fruit merchants use cities to distinguish fruit grades.

"The purchase price of watermelons sold to Guangdong is basically more than 5 yuan. However, those watermelons can change hands in the place of origin...... The price of shipping from Yunnan to big cities is now about 6.

From $5. Guo Feng said: "Ye Mo's batch of watermelons is of very good quality, you also deliberately observed the peel of the watermelon just now." ”

Gao Yuan nodded: "Those watermelons are really good, they can be transported for long distances." But just the two of us, we can't eat that much. ”

"Let's see if Ye Mo can find a powerful dealer. If he can't find a big dealer, he can only sell it in bulk, and then we will also lower the price. Guo Feng said. Their channel in Guangdong is the fruit market, but they rarely do business there, mainly sending fruits to Chengdu and Chongqing for sale. The price should be lower, and you can't give a particularly high price.
