Chapter 0031: Big Business
The next morning, seeing that Qi Hao had not come down the mountain, Shi Qiuzhen's face seemed to be a little unpleasant.
"Aren't you going to sell vegetables today?"
"I've contacted a boss, he'll come later, and if the quality is up to standard, he'll take all the celery in the field!"
"Really?"
Shi Qiuzhen's eyes lit up, she was overjoyed, she slipped into the room again and again, took out a wad of money from under the bed, stuffed it into her jacket pocket, and then said happily: "This big boss can't be lazy when he comes to our house." I'll go down the mountain and buy some food, and when someone comes, you'll have to leave him at our house for a meal!" ”
Although these celeries in the field were not grown by her, Shi Qiuzhen still affirmed their quality from the bottom of her heart.
Therefore, for this business, she is very confident that it can be successful.
Thinking that the big money is about to arrive, now spend a little money and cook a meal for others, not only is there no loss, but the reputation has also spread, why not?
After a short period of effort, Shi Qiuzhen bought a lot of ingredients from the bottom of the mountain, including chicken, duck, fish, and meat, and filled the entire table, and even called the women of the same village to help.
For a while, the Qi family's compound was very lively, and the voices were boiling, and those who didn't know thought that his family was going to do something big.
......
Yu Chuan, the chef who wanted to buy celery last night, came to Qi Hao's house at the appointed time.
When he went down to the field, he was astonished when he saw the delicate green leafy celery.
"I remember that in your area, the soil is not suitable for growing celery, after sowing seeds, it would be good to be able to grow it, I didn't expect you to plant it so well!"
"At that time, when I was planting, I also referred to a lot of information and knew that the soil quality here was not good, so I refilled the soil and diverted water, and transformed the five acres of land at home into cohesive soil suitable for celery growth. In the later period, in terms of fertilization and watering, they were also done strictly from reference books. ”
"You're lucky to still have books that don't cheat people!"
Yu Chuan quipped, and then went down to the field, circled around the acres of land a few times, and squatted down from time to time to see the growth of celery up close.
In fact, as early as when he went up the mountain and had not yet come to the celery field, he smelled the rich aroma from afar, sniffing this unique smell that only celery can exude, and he didn't even need Qi Hao to guide him to find his destination.
Relying on this alone, Yu Chuan already had a very good impression of the celery grown by Qi Hao's family in his heart.
At this moment, a deeper look confirmed his guess.
Celery is green and bright, full of color, the stem part grows evenly, and the flesh is thick, but if you pinch it gently, you can easily squeeze out the water, indicating that the fiber is also fine, and it is definitely an excellent boutique.
After looking at the last acre of land, Yu Chuan nodded with satisfaction: "I want all these celery!" The price of celery on the market is also unstable every day, but at present, it is basically hovering between six and seven cents, because I buy it here and use it directly in the restaurant, so there is no middleman. In this way..."
Yu Chuan thought about it a little, and quickly gave Qi Hao a result: "Your celery, I bought it for eight cents, how about it?" ”
Compared with the price of the first batch sold, the price is three times higher at the moment, and Qi Hao didn't even ask for the price, so he directly made the decision to sell.
After lunch, with the help of women in the same village, more than three acres of celery were picked, packed, and loaded in just one afternoon.
And Qi Hao also got the payment, totaling more than 13,000 yuan.
In previous years, the family planted corn, and the amount of five acres of land, even if it was sold for green fodder, would make 8,000 yuan a year later.
Faced with the huge amount of money in front of her, Shi Qiuzhen felt itchy and apprehensive in her heart.
"I didn't expect that this celery can really make money!"
"Let's continue planting next year, there is still a piece of land down the mountain, plant it too..."
……
The next day, Qi Hao took the money he earned, got on a long-distance bus to the city, and rushed to the People's Hospital.
After examination, Wu Guangying did not have a serious illness, but some serious pneumonia, and he could stay in the hospital for a period of time and hang up on the water.
This also made Qi Hao breathe a sigh of relief.
It's okay!
In the hospital, Wu Guangying was still lying on the bed hanging from the water, but her complexion was much more haggard and emaciated than ten days ago.
Qi Jianguo was napping beside the hospital bed.
Next to the bed, there is a cabinet that is shared with the adjacent bed.
Half of the table was full of fruits and nutritious products, as well as leftover lunches from patients in the next bed, which were full of meat;
On the other hand, the other half of the table top is simply a hot water kettle and a stainless steel cup.
A palm-sized blue and white porcelain rice bowl was brought from home.
Although he only crossed in, and it had nothing to do with this family's half a dime, but seeing the scene in front of him, Qi Hao's heart was still a little sour, and even his eyes were a little wet unconsciously.
In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that half a month ago, their mother and son brought 800 yuan to sell vegetables.
In today's society, eight hundred, what is enough?
“b… a… Father! Milk! ”
Walking into the ward, Qi Hao tried his best to restrain the defense line in his heart and called out to Qi Jianguo.
"Hao, why are you here?"
The first to respond was Wu Guangying.
Then, she gently pushed Qi Jianguo, who was lying on the hospital bed, and sighed: "Wake up, Ah Hao is here!" ”
Qi Jianguo, who woke up, was sleepy-eyed, turned around in a daze, and saw Qi Hao standing in front of him, as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and his fatigue suddenly disappeared.
He got up and shouted the same, "Why are you here?" ”
"Yesterday, a boss came and collected all the celery in the field, and sold it for more than 13,000 yuan in total, plus I have been setting up a stall in the past few days, and I have also sold more than 700, adding up, a total of more than 14,000, and the money is here."
As he spoke, Qi Hao took out a stack of banknotes from his body, which was very thick, and he could see that it was Wu Guangying and Qi Jianguo, his eyes were shining, and his face was incredulous.
"Hao, you take all the money, your mother..."
"The celery in this field is all planted by me and my father, and she doesn't care about it, but she has the face to take it?"
Shi Qiuzhen really had no objection to Qi Hao taking the money, but hoped that he would only bring half of it.
As a result, Qi Hao didn't pay attention to it at all.
"Anyway, she's also your mother, you can't say that about her!"
"Let's not talk about that..."
Not wanting to be obsessed with Shi Qiuzhen's topic, Qi Hao waved his hand slightly, and casually provoked another topic: "Dad, how have you been doing these days?" In a place like a hospital, 800 yuan shouldn't be able to live for so many days! ”
"Your dad, he..."
Wu Guangying said, her voice suddenly a little hoarse and choked: "Selling blood... We sold it for some money, so we could stay in the hospital. ”
"Ahh
This time, Qi Hao really couldn't help it.
When he looked at Qi Jianguo, his eyes were completely wet, and the tears in his eyes flowed out all at once.
"You're also an adult in your twenties, and you're still a big man, why are you crying?"
Qi Jianguo comforted and said that it was okay, but his big hand on Qi Hao's back had no strength at all.
......
It's time to eat.
In the ward, family members brought meals one after another, and Qi Hao, who had taken a long-distance car, had his stomach rumbling unconsciously.
After hearing the movement, Qi Jianguo immediately got up and picked up the blue and white porcelain bowl on the bedside table: "I'm hungry, I'll go to the cafeteria to eat!" ”
"Dad, let's go, you accompany grandma!"
