Chapter 98: Strawberries for sale
Seeing his restless appearance, Bai Xu hurriedly smiled and said to him in order to avoid affecting his mood to go up the mountain.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you."
Fool, can she still break up with him now?
Huo Yi wanted to cry when she saw it, his eyes were moist, he knew that this was unfair to Bai Xu, but he had no choice.
After solving this problem, he will never go up the mountain again.
In the past, he always ran to the mountains because he was idle alone, but now it is different, he would rather wash his hands and make soup at home than never go up the mountain.
After a few more words of advice to Huo Yi, Bai Xu hung up the video and raised his eyebrows.
It just so happened that by taking this opportunity to see if she had a big withdrawal reaction to Huo Yi, she found that her tolerance for Huo Yi had exceeded her bottom line.
She had never liked anything that was out of her control.
I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
After sitting and resting for a while, Bai Xu asked Zhang Nan, and after confirming that he was at home, he took the things prepared for him and drove her father's little three-wheeler towards the place where he lived.
At the first glance of Zhang Nan, Bai Xu almost thought that he had recognized the wrong person.
What a good young man, why is it like this?
"Sister Su!" Zhang Nan showed her big white teeth, smiled happily, and opened the door to let her in.
Bai Xu drove the car directly into the yard, turned off the engine, got out of the car, and looked at Zhang Nan carefully a few times, "Xiao Nan, are you ...... If you don't know, you think you've gone digging coal? ”
It's dark and thin, and her aunt can't feel distressed when she sees it.
Zhang Nan scratched his head and smiled at a loss, "No, no." ”
It's just that some time ago, the sun was big, and the sun was like this, and when winter came, it came back.
Bai Xu patted his thin but somewhat muscular arm, frowned, and said in a deep voice.
"What's nothing, if you lose weight like this, how can I explain to my aunt."
"Work is work, you should eat, you should drink, and when you have no money, tell me. I'm here for you to help, not for you to do a job. ”
Farming is not a crime, it really can't be done, she can invite more people, there is no need to wronged herself like this.
is a good handsome guy, if he continues like this, he will become a bamboo pole.
Zhang Nan smiled, "Got it, Sister Su." ”
He just didn't get used to it at first, but now he's getting better.
Bai Xu nodded at this time and took the rice, fruits and vegetables she had prepared for Zhang Nan from the car.
After sitting and drinking a sip of water, the two went to the field again, looking at the crops that were growing well, and Bai Su praised Zhang Nan a few more words.
Zhang Nan blushed and was very embarrassed, he was a monk halfway, for fear that he would not be able to take care of these crops, so he asked the elderly in the village for experience if he had nothing to do, and now he was a little relieved to see that the crops were growing well.
The main thing is that this batch of seeds is very good, and it doesn't have to endure pests or anything, which avoids a lot of trouble.
The sister and brother walked around the field, and Zhang Nan suddenly saw the strawberry field not far away, pointed over there, and asked Bai Xu.
"Sister Su, your strawberry field is almost starting to bear fruit, am I looking for someone to help you sell or do you already have a sales channel?"
Once the strawberries start to bear fruit, they are not far from ripe, and if his sister hadn't come home today, he would have been ready to tell her about it.
Bai Xu looked at the strawberry field enclosed by a bamboo fence, and communicated with Zhang Nan with a smile.
"I didn't. But first ask my uncle, these strawberries are good. He should be able to eat. ”
Twenty acres of strawberries is not much, and it is not too much to say less, but according to everyone's love for strawberries and the large population in the city, the market should not be a problem.
It's up to her uncle to see if he can eat it.
Zhang Nan almost forgot that his uncle was the one who opened a fruit shop, so he smirked twice and agreed.
"Okay, then I'll ask him later. And this strawberry pricing ......"
He estimated that his sister's strawberry would not be cheap, and when it bloomed, it exuded a strong fragrance, and it also attracted free-range chickens and ducks in the village.
If it weren't for the employees who were working to pay attention to the movement in the field, the strawberry field would have been gnawed before it could bear fruit.
“88!” Bai Xu had already thought about the price of this strawberry, and looking at Zhang Nan's surprised expression, she then said, "In addition, when the strawberries are almost ripe, take a batch of strawberries and send them for inspection."
These are all organic strawberries, with extremely high nutritional value, so be sure to publicize them, and see if you can lead the villagers in the village to grow strawberries next year. ”
She had been complaining to the village chief that the village was too poor and had no economic and industrial pillars, so she thought that if the strawberries sold well this year, she could bring the villagers to plant them next year.
The village is full of people in their sixties and seventies, and it is certainly not possible to let them do heavy work, but if they grow strawberries, it should not be a big problem.
"Oh, okay." Zhang Nan nodded hurriedly, he didn't expect his sister to have such a layer of concerns, and he admired it in his heart.
After inspecting his 'territory', Bai Xu rode home on a small tricycle.
After resting at home for three days, Bai Xu returned to the city and continued to work.
After Liu Feng learned that the strawberries in the white field were about to ripen, he personally went to Shangwan Village to check the situation, and after confirming that it was really twenty acres of strawberries, he directly took them all in one go, without hesitation.
Although the price is a little high, as long as it is delicious, everything is not a problem.
Even those ordinary chocolate strawberries on the market are thirty or forty-one pounds, and they are not organic, and the taste is not good except for sweetness.
Liu Feng originally wanted to pay a deposit to Bai Xu first, but Bai Xu confiscated it, and only said that it would be counted together after the sale.
Three days before the strawberry picking, Liu Feng set up a pre-heating advertisement in front of each of his fruit stores.
Pure natural organic strawberries, 99 pounds per catty, you can enjoy a 95% discount if you book in advance, each person is limited to five catties, first come, first served.
Each of Liu Feng's fruit shops has several customer groups, and every few days they will post advertisements in the group about the arrival of some fruit or some fruit specials.
This time the strawberries were launched, and he also asked the store manager of each store to send a pre-order message in the group, and then ...... The swarm exploded.
Z City, although it is a tourist city, but the per capita salary is only four or five thousand, and a pound of fruit costs 99, in the eyes of many customers, it is no different from grabbing money.
Liu Feng also knew that this would happen, but he didn't buy and sell by force, he only bought if he was willing to buy, as for those who quit the group and complained, he just asked the store to soothe and finish.
To do business, you have to be worthy of your conscience, he asked himself to be very worthy of his conscience, whether it is the selection or quality control of the fruits in his store, he is personally checked, and the price is also biased towards affordability.
Anyway, he feels worthy of his conscience, and everything else is secondary.
Besides, scarcity is expensive, this kind of strawberry is only available in Z City in the whole country, he tasted the taste, not to mention a catty of 99, even a 99 He is willing to buy.
Twenty acres of strawberries, the first batch of 3,000 catties were picked, Liu Feng looked at the fresh strawberries that were delivered to the store one after another, and suddenly felt that he had miscalculated.
The yield seems to be a little bit more.
It's over, the strawberries can't be backlogged, and if they don't sell out in two days, they will rot, gritting his teeth, Liu Feng reluctantly dialed a few peer bosses who had a good relationship with him.
It doesn't matter if he loses some money, but he can't let such a good thing go to waste.
In addition, he felt unsafe, and remembered the female Internet celebrity who helped him promote watermelon last time, and hurriedly looked for her contact information on the Internet.
Fortunately, Liu Feng's efforts were not in vain, and after he warmed up in advance and hyped up the strawberry inspection report, the strawberry sales on the first day were quite considerable.
In addition, he gave some strawberries to a few of his peers, and half of the amount was sold on the first day.
And after Li Yue received Liu Feng's invitation, he also came to Z City from Yangcheng with great interest.
She wanted to taste what this so-called superb strawberry tasted like.
On the first day of the strawberries, Bai Xu also bought a few catties of strawberries from the fruit store next to the hospital and distributed them to his colleagues in the department, and these strawberries were well received by everyone.
The doctors and nurses who have eaten it all said that they would go to buy something to go home when they got off work.
To Liu Feng's surprise, the next day the strawberries were cold, and the sales plummeted, but fortunately, the strawberries of the white flocculent species are resistant to storage, and there is a storage time of about five days from picking to selling.
The first batch of strawberries was barely sold, Liu Feng temporarily lost some money, and the second batch of strawberries went on the market.
Liu Feng was worried, for fear that this batch of strawberries would rot in his hands.
Sitting anxiously in his office, he didn't dare to ask about the sales of each store, for fear of adding pressure to the staff, and after smoking half a pack of cigarettes, he took the car keys and prepared to go to the store himself.
As soon as he got into the car, a store manager called, and he thought something was wrong, and his heart suddenly chuckled.
A quick phone connection, and an excited tenor voice came from the opposite side.
"Boss, rob, grab it, can it still be delivered today?"
Liu Feng gouged out his ears, feeling that he might be hallucinating because he was too nervous.
"What? You repeat, what is the snatch? ”
What do you mean, his shop was robbed?
The other end of the phone hesitated, thinking that he had made the wrong call, and deliberately looked at the phone number, and then said to Liu Feng with certainty.
"Boss, it's out of stock, the strawberries in the store are sold...... No, it was robbed. ”
He is not exaggerating at all, he is really robbed.
"I... I...... You say it slowly, you say it slowly, what do you mean? ”
Liu Feng looked down at his watch, it's only eleven o'clock now, and the strawberries have been robbed?
His mind was still a mess, and he didn't understand what was going on.
His previous strawberries were sold out in five days, and now you tell me that the strawberries are sold out in half a day? He couldn't believe it.
The young store manager on the opposite side was a little helpless, and after coughing lightly, he explained to his boss seriously.
"That's right, boss. As soon as I opened the store this morning, a group of people came running into the store and asked me to buy strawberries.
I don't know what's going on, but if they want to buy it, I'll sell it.
As soon as I put the strawberries out, they just started grabbing them.
I said the limit, but they left a wad of money and ran away with our strawberry basket, and I didn't even give change.
Later, I grabbed a person and asked, only to know that it was the Internet celebrity lady you invited who brought our strawberries to fire, and the people who came to buy strawberries were all her fans. ”
"Now the strawberries in our square store have been sold out, and the situation is similar in several other stores, and people are still asking us if we have strawberries for sale, boss, what should we do?"
The young store manager looked outside at the customer who came to ask about the strawberry seller, so he could only shake his head embarrassedly, and asked the clerk to recommend other fruits to them by the way.
But he is happy to see that the fruit in the store sells well, because his bonus is related to the sales volume of each month, and the strawberries are selling so well this month, his bonus should be indispensable.
Liu Feng smacked his tongue and made an exaggerated expression in the rearview mirror.
"Sold out of thousands of catties?" This fan effect is too terrifying.
Because the first batch of strawberries did not sell very well, his friends did not dare to help him share the second batch of grass, and he did not force it, originally thinking that if it was cold on the first day, he would sell it at a reduced price, but who knew that it would be sold out so quickly.
For a while, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
The young store manager couldn't cry or laugh, "Yes, boss, I'm not joking with you, you look at the group news." ”
Liu Feng also knew that he didn't dare to joke about strawberries, but the strawberries were indeed out of stock, and the third batch would have to wait a few days for them to be listed.
"Tell those customers that it will be available in three days, but you can book in advance."
After saying this, he took a long breath, and the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
He hung up the phone of the young store manager and patted the steering wheel hard, with a relaxed smile on his face.
His phone rang again, and he took a look.
Peer? I guess it's for the strawberries, but he doesn't have to share it with them now.
In mid-November, the autumn breeze was bleak, and Liu Shuangshuang asked Bai Su to eat out for the first time after marriage.
The two sat in a newly opened barbecue restaurant, Bai Xu looked at the quiet environment around him, and felt a little hot, so he stood up and took off his coat.
Liu Shuangshuang glanced at his sister's figure enviously, with a hint of evil smile on her white and red face, and raised her eyebrows rather obscenely, "Good baby, your figure is getting better and better, it seems that you have a lot to do with your boyfriend...... Ahem......"
Looking at Liu Shuangshuang, who was squeezing his eyebrows, the corners of Bai Fu's mouth twitched, thinking if she dared to be more obscene, but this is also a public occasion, fortunately, there is no one in the store now.
Fold the clothes and put them aside, Bai Su whispered, "You think too much, I'm old-fashioned, I won't try love with a man before marriage." ”
She has a habit of cleanliness, her acceptance of this aspect is a bit low, and she doesn't have much interest in life.
Liu Shuangshuang looked at her in surprise, took the menu to block his face, and leaned in front of Bai Su, with an exaggerated and curious expression.
"Huh? So how do you know if he's going to do it? If not, won't you have to be a widow? ”
Nowadays, men smoke, drink and stay up late, there are not too many people who are not very good, if she encounters this kind of unperson, it is estimated that she will have to say goodbye to him immediately, and she will not waste her time at all.
She used to know her sister's standards, but she didn't expect that after so many years, it still hasn't changed at all.
