Chapter 107: Meng Meng's car
On Tuesday morning, Cao Shujie first called the customers he rejected yesterday and explained to them the reason for refusing to sell them kiwifruit yesterday.
And promised to give them a standard box of 5 catties of kiwifruit for free.
Don't need them to come, give the address to Cao Shujie, and Cao Shujie will arrange for them to mail it over.
People who live nearby, he personally sent them over.
After these people learned that there was still such an inside story, they all said 'it's okay', and some said that they would go back when they were free in two days.
Few people thought about taking advantage of Cao Shujie's 5 catties of kiwifruit, and expressed their gratitude to Cao Shujie for their 'consideration'.
If Cao Shujie was not sure whether the fruit and fruit trees had been poisoned, in order to make money, he frantically sold kiwifruit to them, in case it was really poisoned, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Because of this, Cao Shujie won the title of 'the most responsible fruit grower'.
This incident was later passed on by word of mouth, and as time went by, more and more people became aware of him, and others rated him better and better.
But Cao Shujie didn't know about it, and after explaining the situation to these customers, he called Chen Xingquan and asked him to arrange for someone to come and repair the hole in the barbed wire fence for him.
In addition, Cao Shujie also went to the county seat to have a grand banquet for a few of his hair children and a few of Cao Tiemin's workers!
In addition to these, Cao Shujie also wanted to give them some money, and Cao Zhen and several of them scolded him for being bloody.
Cao Shujie retreated and gave them 10 boxes of kiwifruit, according to his selling price, these 10 boxes of 50 catties of kiwifruit are also worth a lot!
No one took the money, but the kiwi took it all.
They think it's normal to eat some kiwifruit from him after a busy night's work, and they can give away the rest.
The kiwifruit planted by Cao Shujie is not an ordinary commodity color of 5 yuan a pound in a fruit store!
"As a result, there won't be much fruit left in the orchard." Cheng Xiaolin said.
Cao Shujie didn't care: "It's okay, there are no kiwis, and apples, after selling out this season, I will settle down and take a good look at it." ”
His heart is like a mirror, and he knows that simply relying on selling fruits and picking things will not last long.
If we want sustainable development in ten or twenty years, the surrounding soft environment must also keep up.
The customer who picks the fruit comes over, sees a mountain that is so dry, and there is nothing to see, and after picking the fruit, he immediately went home, and at the beginning there was a sense of excitement to support and did not feel that there was anything wrong, and when he calmed down, he might have regrets!
"It seems that I earn a lot, but I also invest a lot in the later stage." Cao Shujie muttered.
Cheng Xiaolin also knows this, but she supports her husband's plan to spend money.
"Shujie, I have to give some of this money to our parents." Cheng Xiaolin took the initiative to say.
The old orchard was given to them by the parents-in-law, which is equivalent to the old couple breaking their arms to provide for them, and the old couple cutting off most of their income.
And the old couple helped them a lot.
Cao Shujie looked at his wife with a smile: "How much do you think it's good to give?" ”
"Or 100,000 yuan, don't you have to invest the rest of the money again?" Cheng Xiaolin seems to have a plan.
Cao Shujie reached out to hold his wife's head and kissed her fiercely on the cheek: "Okay, just do as you say!" ”
"Bear-like!"
Cheng Xiaolin turned around and went to the house and took out a plastic bag, which was neatly stacked with 100,000 yuan in cash: "Oh, these are just right, send them to your parents." ”
"Haha!" Cao Shujie laughed, slapped his wife on the ass while she was unprepared, and took the money to find his parents before Cheng Xiaolin was angry.
But Wang Yuelan and Cao Jianguo said that they didn't want this money, they felt that they had other income, and what was the matter with sharing money with their son.
But Cao Shujie forced them to, and the old couple only took half of the last total, and the rest didn't want to live or die.
……
The last remaining kiwifruit was sold sporadically for five days, and there were only a few hundred catties of sales on Saturday and weekend, when schools were opening one after another, and college students began to go to all parts of the country to report to school.
Cao Shujie discussed with his wife, and after selling another 3,152 catties of kiwifruit this week, the remaining more than 600 catties of kiwifruit in the orchard were not sold, and all of them were picked, some of which were given away, and the other part was eaten by himself.
When Wang Yuelan and Cao Jianguo heard their son say this, they saw that there were still a few hundred catties of kiwifruit left, and they felt that their son was too luxurious, and these could be sold for a lot of money.
But the son insisted on going his own way and didn't listen to them, and the old couple couldn't do anything.
On the other side, Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin finally finished the accounts and sold a total of nearly 520,000 kiwifruit.
"The production is a bit small!" Cheng Xiaolin said.
Cao Shujie also agreed, he said: "I originally expected the average yield per mu to be more than 5,000 catties, who knew that the average was only 4,300 catties, and the gap was a bit big." ”
"Shujie, I think we can take advantage of the rest time to take advantage of the rest time to take care of the land, so that we can have a bumper harvest next year." Cheng Xiaolin didn't understand it at all.
Hearing his wife say this, Cao Shujie nodded, and he said, "Get some soil fertilizer, and then increase the nutrition of the land." ”
"Listen to you." Cheng Xiaolin is a simple three words.
The hot weather in August has finally passed, and as the time enters September, the mornings and evenings have become much cooler, and the daytime temperature has dropped slightly.
Cao Shujie and his father Cao Jianguo walked around the orchard during this time, and the father and son also alternately raised calves.
In addition to feeding them grass, Cao Shujie also bought a large amount of corn, soybean cake and other feed, in order to facilitate mixing, he also spent more than 20,000 yuan to get a medium mixer in the breeding area.
In addition, Cao Zhenggang was also asked to build a simple warehouse for him in the breeding area with steel structures and color steel plates, which were used to put corn, feed and mixers.
This piece cost more than 100,000 yuan, but fortunately, the second batch of loans had been received in August, and after deducting the benefits to Song Zhichao and Ma Changrong, there were still more than 2 million left.
The pocket has become bulging, and the foundation investment in the mountain, Cao Shujie is more! Be willing to invest a lot.
On the evening of the 3rd, Cao Shujie and his father were busy with work, leading two little German pastors down from the mountain, and when the father and son passed by Cao Shujie's house, they looked at the renovation that was nearing the end after a busy month, and talked in a low voice.
The gate is specially made and painted with yellow paint, which is particularly conspicuous even at night.
The house is not visible from the outside, but when you open the door and enter, you can find that this two-story building is very different from the common village houses in Caojiazhuang.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a country cottage.
In the decoration area, hundreds of thousands have been spent, in Cao Tiemin's words, to maintain this tone, and finally the decoration is completed, plus the purchase of furniture and household appliances, 300,000 yuan.
In this way, the house that could be done with a budget of more than 200,000 yuan exceeded half of the budget, but Cao Shujie didn't care, he felt that the house was still good in one step.
There is no intention of leaving Caojiazhuang in the short term, and he can now say with certainty that he can earn this money, in this case, why not make himself more comfortable.
"After the iron people finish decorating for you, let it dry for a few months, and then find someone to install the heating, and you can move here this winter, which is more comfortable than blowing the air conditioner over there to keep warm." Cao Jianguo said.
"Dad, you and my mom also moved in together." Cao Shujie said.
But Cao Jianguo shook his head and waved his hand: "You can live by yourself, why are the two of us moving here?" Let your mother cook for you every day? I clean you every day? ”
Cao Jianguo looked like Lao Tzu also had to enjoy the pie, he said: "I serve you every day, I am also annoyed, and these four dogs can eat more than us adults, you hurry up and get rid of them." ”
"Oh!" When Da Hei heard this, he then shouted at Cao Jianguo to demonstrate.
But Cao Jianguo raised his foot and kicked at him, although he was dexterously dodged by Da Hei, he still chattered: "Da Hei, you eat me and drink mine, I can't say two words to you?" Dog stuff! ”
Cao Shujie held the dog leash, listened to his father's chatter, and couldn't help laughing.
"Dad, it's a dog, what do you do with it." Cao Shujie persuaded his father.
"How long have you been raising it, and you know how to fart!" Cao Jianguo scolded his son unceremoniously, and said: "If this dog is raised for a long time, it will have feelings, you will raise it yourself in the future and treat them well." ”
"Look at Daha and Erha, didn't they help you intercept Cao Jianqiu and Cao Shubao's two bear goods last time!" Cao Jianguo said.
Cao Shujie admits this!
……
The sound of clanging came out of Cao Jianguo's house.
In the yard, Cao Shujie and his father Cao Jianguo were working on a cart with hammers, nails, screws, wheels, etc.
Meng Meng squatted next to her and watched very energetically.
"Dad, Grandpa, are you alright?" Meng Meng asked.
After being busy in August, life has become slow again, as if you have to slowly adjust your life and body in this way.
With nothing to do in his spare time, Cao Shujie looked at Daha and Erha, who were energetic every day, and an idea that he had thought about before but did not realize in his head was put on his agenda.
Get a small car out and let Daha and Erha pull it, and it will be the exclusive car for the king of the mountain and the little princess to travel in the future!
Seeing that her granddaughter couldn't wait any longer, Cao Jianguo coaxed her: "It's almost over, Mengmeng, you wait, grandpa will put wheels on you, wait for your grandma and mother to sew the bushings and cushions, and then put the dog saddle on Daha and Erha, let's go out for a walk, how about it?" ”
"Okay!" Meng Meng clapped her little hands, she was looking forward to it.
"Grandpa, go to the orchard." Meng Meng shouted.
At this time, there were no other vehicles over there, and the place was big enough and quiet enough for her to run away.
"Okay, let Daha and Erha pull you later, and let's go to the orchard on the mountain to play." Cao Jianguo drew the line on the board, drilled 4 holes with a drill, fixed the universal wheel, and then got the remaining wheels.
The front two are universal wheels, and the rear two are straight wheels.
Seeing this, Mengmeng was full of anticipation, and after a while, she asked again: "Grandpa, are you okay?" ”
"It's coming!" Cao Jianguo said.
Wang Yuelan and her daughter-in-law Cheng Xiaolin were also busy working beside them.
A sewing circle cloth cover is used for Daha and Erha to hang around the neck.
A sewn cushion is placed in the trolley to cushion it, making it more comfortable to sit on.
Cao Shujie is still refining the remaining details, such as installing a fence around the car and a hand-held handle in front.
4 people worked together to combine the modules prepared a few days in advance, and it took almost two hours like this, and Meng Meng couldn't wait.
Seeing that the 'exclusive car' was finally ready, she couldn't wait to sit on it.
"Dad, hurry up and carry me up, hurry up!" Meng Meng shouted.
Cao Shujie was unhurried, he tied the rope of the cushion on the railing of the car, and then carried the eager jumping Meng Meng into the car.
He took a closer look, and suddenly found another problem: "No, there is no seat belt to restrain you, if you hit a stone or a small ditch, the car jumps up, and Meng Meng has to fall out and fall to the ground." ”
"What then?" Cao Jianguo was anxious when he heard this, there were so many potential risk factors, he couldn't let his granddaughter go up and risk herself.
But Cheng Xiaolin remembered something, she said: "Shujie, you wait a while, I will take out the automatic safety seat we bought for Mengmeng before, sew two pieces of cloth and fix it on the car." ”
This is a solution, and Cao Shujie immediately agreed to this plan.
After his wife found out the wearable mobile safety seat and modified it and fixed it on the car, another half an hour passed, and Mengmeng really couldn't wait this time.
After seeing that everything was done, she held on to the handle, raised her feet and was about to enter the car and sit down, but the fence of the car was not low, and she couldn't lift her legs to get in, and finally had to let her father carry her in.
Tie her up with the safety seat belt, Cao Shujie checked the safety again, and then hung the cloth cover sewn by his wife on the neck of Daha and Erha's dogs, and then put a dog leash on Daha Erha and led them out.
As they walked, the two dogs pulled the rope attached to the trolley and drove the trolley forward, and the silky silent wheels had no problem at all.
Meng Meng sat in the car and shouted happily: "Dad, hurry up, hurry up." ”
Looking at her crazy energy, no matter how you look at it, she has no potential to be a lady, Cao Shujie is very worried about whether her daughter will be able to marry when she grows up in the future.
But that's also a matter for the future, and Cao Shujie doesn't think about it now.
Holding the dog leash, Daha and Erha drove the car and walked north along the village road.
The combination of Daha and Erha's 'dog pulling the car' has become the most beautiful scenery in Caojiazhuang in an instant.
Meng Meng sat in the car, and she was happy to see the adults all smiling at her.
"Daddy, run!"
"Drive!"
Meng Meng's shouts echoed in the village, and the crisp laughter kept coming, Cao Shujie listened to his daughter's laughter, and he was also very happy.
There are a few little dolls in the north who are playing together, and when they see two dogs pulling a cart passing by, and then they see Meng Meng sitting in the car shouting, their envious eyes can't be pulled out.
