Chapter 144: Deep in the Mountains

The three of them walked a long way up the mountain until it was almost uninhabited.

εΎε˜‰η’ says:

"Boss, we've gone far enough this time. But... It can't be that there are no more villages, right? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo frowned, and he was also a little skeptical that such a situation would occur.

Just when Zhao Zhuo thought that there would be no more villages, several houses suddenly appeared in front of him.

This made Zhao Zhuo and the others a little surprised.

If you have a house, you prove that there are people.

And here, as long as there are people, then eighty percent of them have yellow peaches!

Sure enough, after driving a little further, suddenly a peach forest came into view, lush, and the huge yellow peaches hung on the branches, a scene of harvest.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Zhuo and the others were completely relieved.

It seems that Zhao Zhuo's guess is indeed right!

The car drove to the side of an orchard and happened to see a middle-aged man coming out of the orchard.

Zhao Zhuo hurriedly asked Xu Jialu to stop, and then got out of the car and came to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked at Zhao Zhuo in some surprise, then looked at their car, and then asked suspiciously:

"Who are you?"

Zhao Zhuo nodded at the middle-aged man, and then said:

"Big brother, we're here to buy yellow peaches."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes suddenly lit up:

"What? Come to us to buy yellow peaches? ”

Seeing the middle-aged man's surprised expression, Zhao Zhuo couldn't help but smile and asked:

"What, don't we grow yellow peaches in our village?"

The middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head:

"No, no, of course we planted. In this mountain, what else can you grow without growing yellow peaches? ”

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man smiled self-deprecatingly, and then continued:

"It's just that we don't have anyone here to buy it, so I'm a little surprised to see you."

Zhao Zhuo had already guessed this, and when he heard this, he nodded and asked:

"And how do you sell your yellow peaches?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man smiled bitterly:

"If others don't collect it, we can only sell it ourselves.

Otherwise, they will go to the sales point in another village dozens of miles away to sell, or they will go further and go to the town a hundred miles away to retail. It's a hassle anyway.

When we went to the acquisition point in another village, people thought that we were robbing business and squeezing out all kinds of things. Go to the town for retail, because there are too many yellow peaches planted nearby, and they can't sell at any price. ”

A few words that revealed the difficulties of this village.

After hearing what the middle-aged man said, Zhao Zhuo smiled faintly and said:

"I want to go into the orchard and have a look, but I don't know if it's convenient or not."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded again and again:

"Convenient!"

As he spoke, he took Zhao Zhuo into the orchard.

Zhao Zhuo looked at the yellow peach on the tree that was almost ripe, picked one casually, washed it and tasted it, and couldn't help but say with some surprise:

"This yellow peach tastes pretty good!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded proudly:

"In fact, the quality of the yellow peaches we have here is quite good in the entire Yinzhou region.

But unfortunately, our geographical location here is a bit too remote, so it is a pity that half of such a good yellow peach has to rot in the ground. ”

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man looked at Zhao Zhuo with some hesitation and asked:

"You're here to buy... How much are you going to receive? ”

Zhao Zhuo did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically:

"You guys here... How many yellow peaches are planted? ”

The middle-aged man roughly calculated, and then replied:

"Our village combined, almost... There can be thirty or forty acres. According to the yield of about 5,000 catties per mu of land, a total of about 200,000 catties can be produced. ”

Zhao Zhuo heard this amount and nodded slightly:

"Normal delivery price, how much is a pound of yellow peaches?"

The middle-aged man replied directly:

"If you ship the goods, you generally sell them according to three cents a catty, and it can be a little more expensive to sell it yourself, to about five cents."

Zhao Zhuo asked again:

"Can the quality of yellow peaches in your village reach this quality?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded without thinking about it:

"I can guarantee it!"

"Are you sure you can guarantee it?"

"Sure!"

Zhao Zhuo nodded:

"Okay, then please invite all the people who grow yellow peaches in the village, and I want the yellow peaches in your village, five cents and a catty."

Hearing Zhao Zhuo's words that seemed to be said casually, the middle-aged man was suddenly stunned.

He thought that Zhao Zhuo should buy yellow peaches, but he never expected to buy so many at once!

"Great! What a benefactor to our village! ”

Saying that, the middle-aged man was excited, and hurriedly said that Zhao Zhuo invited him to his house nearby to sit first, and then busily went to inform the person who planted yellow peaches.

Zhao Zhuo and the three of them sat and waited.

Xu Jialu asked with some confusion:

"Mr. Zhao, they only ship three cents a catty, why do we want to open to the price of five cents a catty?"

Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly when he heard this, and then said:

"Whether the purchase price is three cents a pound or five cents a pound, there is not much difference for us, even if it is calculated according to 200,000 catties, it will not cost 40,000 yuan more.

However, this money is very important to them! With this money, these children can go to school, buy two catties of meat during the Chinese New Year, and have money to buy medicine when they are sick..."

gave a series of examples, and Zhao Zhuo then said solemnly:

"Look at this family, there are not even a few decent pieces of furniture in the house, and life is very hard.

The great business is for the country and the people. Let's do business, we still need to be more caring. ”

Zhao Zhuo's words are really not an exaggeration. In the middle-aged man's house, as far as the eye can see, there is a shabby wooden table and a few very shabby stools. Other than that, there's nothing,

Therefore, hearing this, Xu Jialu and another employee all nodded their heads, indicating that they had learned.

Zhao Zhuo waited for a while, and the middle-aged man came back with a bunch of people, and after a while, he stood in the room full.

Zhao Zhuo looked at the villagers in front of him, and saw that they were all dark-skinned, very old and even patched, and when he saw that life was not rich, he couldn't help but be more determined in his heart.

At this time, the villagers already knew the purpose of Zhao Zhuo's trip, so everyone's eyes were full of surprise and gratitude when they looked at Zhao Zhuo.

It's just that because they are not familiar, everyone is embarrassed to speak.

But the middle-aged man said with some excitement:

"This is the big boss from Fengtian City! People said that all the yellow peaches in our village are sold at the price of five cents a catty, and they are all included! ”

After it was confirmed again, everyone's eyes were even more excited.
