Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space
Chapter 133 Is this family too honest?
She was not polite and picked a big red lychee from the big bunch of lychees she held in her hand.
With just two hands, the outer skin was broken into two halves, revealing the white flesh inside.
Then she took a bite, and the rich juice immediately filled her mouth. It was sweet and delicious. She couldn't help but nodded and praised: "It's really sweet!"
It was sweeter than most of the lychees she had eaten in her previous life, but it was still a little inferior to the most expensive and sweetest lychees.
However, the yield of green leaves is very small, and those who can eat it are very lucky.
Most people can eat Feizixiao, Chenzi, Nuomici, Guiwei, Zhuangyuanhong, Marchhong and other varieties which are pretty good.
The lychee she is eating now tastes very similar to the second-ranked Fei Zixiao. The fruit has a large core and small core, thick flesh, rich juice, sweet and fragrant taste, and is very appetizing.
Hearing her say it was very sweet, Amu smiled and showed his white teeth.
"Sweet, right? The lychee tree in my house is a mother tree that my grandfather dug out from the mountains. The lychees planted by other families in the village are all cultivated from the fruit of this tree using the core. Although the taste is not the same. It’s good, but it’s not as good as this mother tree.”
Amu said very proudly, and even the other people in the room straightened their backs unconsciously, very proud.
Qiao Ran nodded: "I see! So, your lychees should be the best-selling ones?"
Amu scratched his head and said naively:
"No, this mother tree is too old. It produces less and less fruit every year, and not much can be sold. Although the other lychee trees planted in my family also produce more and more delicious fruits than ordinary people, But the mayor said that the business can’t be done only by my family, but also by giving some opportunities to the villagers. So when merchants come, we can’t just let my family handle it. In addition, my house does not face the street, so people look for it directly on the street. The shopkeeper is talking about business, but I haven’t sold much.”
Qiao Ran was speechless. Wasn't this family too honest?
The mayor said that his family would not be allowed to receive guests, but his family really gave up all the opportunities to others?
Obviously the quality of my own home is better, but I can't sell it.
It was obvious that the whole town relied on the mother tree that Amu's grandfather had brought back to give them the opportunity to grow lychees and sell them for money, yet yet they bullied an honest family like this.
Qiao Ran looked at the family. There was not much anger on their faces, as if this incident was a normal thing.
She could only sigh secretly. Everyone in this family was so honest and honest that it was pitiable.
At this time, Amu's mother-in-law had cut the honeydew melon into pieces and brought it over on a wooden tray, signaling Qiao Ran to eat it.
Qiao Ran reached out and picked up a piece. The skin was very thin, and the flesh and pulp inside were golden yellow. It was also juicy and attractive in color.
Qiao Ran took a bite of the pulp and said, "It's delicious! It's sweet and crispy, and leaves a fragrant aroma all over your teeth."
The pulp was similar to the cantaloupe she had eaten in her previous life. It tasted very sweet, with a strong milky aroma and a hint of wine.
I really didn’t expect that in this lean year when there was not enough food to eat, this humble and unknown town would have two such delicious fruits.
She couldn't help but ask: "Your lychees and honeydew melons are delicious, why don't you spread your reputation and let more people know about it?"
Amu scratched his head, looked at his father who continued to smoke cigarettes in silence, and replied sheepishly:
"Our town is small and the location is not good. There are very few people who come to our town. Moreover, we have limited manpower and land, so we cannot grow too many fruits and sell them in large quantities. Only a few of them pass by our town accidentally and eat them. Only the merchants who pass by our lychees and honeydews will come back to buy them and sell them to other places."
Qiao Ran was really worried about the people in this town. They were guarding such good resources but couldn't make it bigger and stronger.
She believed that if these fruits could be sold in the capital, they would definitely be snapped up by high-ranking officials, nobles and wealthy families.
After all, in this era, farmers do not grow much fruit for sale. Food is the most important thing for the people. What everyone values most is rice, noodles and other staple foods. The main thing is to grow rice, wheat, corn and other food crops to fill their stomachs. most important thing.
Generally, only wealthy families with their own farms would let their servants or tenant farmers grow some fruits for their own consumption.
Therefore, there are not many types of fruits on the market, usually peaches and plums, apricots, red dates, apples and bananas.
Moreover, due to the inconvenience of transportation in ancient times, fruits were very regionally limited. It was difficult for people in the north to eat fruits from the south, and it was even more difficult for people from the south to eat fruits from the north.
Therefore, even wealthy people in the capital of Zhongzhou may not be able to enjoy fruits from other places as much as they want.
Qiao Ran suddenly had an idea.
If we could grow these lychees and cantaloupes near the capital, and then find other types of delicious fruits to grow, and then sell them to wealthy people in the capital, would we be able to easily make a lot of money?
After all, there are many rich people in the capital, and rich and powerful families often hold banquets, poetry gatherings, etc., and they also need a lot of novel and delicious fruits to entertain guests.
According to the novels and TV series she had read before, those rich people are very face-conscious. In order to win the praise of their guests, they will go to great lengths to entertain their guests with the best food.
Rare things are expensive, so she only needs to mark these fruits with high prices, giving people the feeling that ordinary people can't afford them. Those rich people will definitely be willing to pay high prices to buy them for the sake of face, and they are the most expensive and rare fruits. Rush to buy.
Thinking of this, Qiao Ran had an idea in her mind.
She said to Amu who was immersed in pride: "I like your lychees and honeydew melons very much. I want to buy dozens of kilograms to take home for my family to try. Can you take me to the orchard? I'll follow you Pick fruits together and experience the fun of picking fruits by yourself.”
"This……"
Amu was a little embarrassed. With little arms and legs like Miss Qiao, could she follow him up the mountain to pick fruits? What if I fall and touch it?
Moreover, unless regular customers place large orders, they generally do not take people to the orchards.
But Amu's father, who was sitting by the door, raised his head and said to Amu: "Our mountain is up here, so just take her up there for a walk."
Amutai didn't believe that such a dark, thin, and malnourished girl wearing coarse cloth with many patches on it would have the money to buy dozens of kilograms of fruit.
But he was an honest and honest person, and he felt that he was a guest of theirs, and it was not wrong to satisfy the guest's wishes. Anyway, his son was idle, so why should he take his little girl for a walk?
Seeing that his father had spoken, Amu had no choice but to say: "Okay, you come with me. But you must be careful! There are wild bees, snakes and various bugs and wild beasts in the orchard. You must follow me closely and don't run around. .”
