Chapter 92 Ripe Watermelon

Dafeng groaned, turned around and walked out of the watermelon field, Wei Jingze thought that the meaning should be gone for the time being.

This big watermelon with green skin is the first ripe watermelon in this melon field!

Holding the heavy melon, Wei Jingze was quite happy in his heart. This year's watermelon was planted and managed by himself!It looks big and good, it must be very sweet!

At this time, Jiang Yanzong got out from inside and asked, "What did you do?"

Wei Jingze raised the watermelon in his hand and said, "Dafeng found a ripe melon, I picked it, we can eat watermelon today."

Seeing the watermelon in Wei Jingze's hand, Jiang Yanzong also smiled and said, "Is it so big?"

Wei Jingze also smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, I think it's at least ten catties!"

Green-skinned watermelons are easy to grow very large. The shape of green-skinned watermelons will be more like winter melons, and the flower skin will be more round.

This year Wei Jingze and the old man planted seedless melons, which are more popular in the market.

Jiang Yanzong said: "It's great, it's the first time I've eaten melons picked directly from the field!"

However, Wei Jingze thought that Jiang Yanzong hadn't eaten watermelon this year. Before it was released, wouldn't he be able to eat it whenever he wanted?

"Let's pack up and go back quickly, and show grandpa and the others this big watermelon!"

Wei Jingze also had the idea of ​​showing off, he planted it himself!

The two returned home with their things in their arms. It was earlier than the previous day. At this time, Yang Tianjian also got up, squatting at the door and brushing his teeth. When he saw the watermelon in Wei Jingze's hand, his eyes lit up.

After entering the door, he called the old man to come out to look at the watermelon. The huge watermelon was placed on the table, and five pairs of eyes looked at it. That's right, Dafeng was also staring at the melon.

The old man was not as excited as Wei Jingze, he just said with a smile: "Okay, the watermelon should be ripe. Next, there will be more watermelons that are ripe. It would be great if they can all be sold."

Jiang Yanzong said: "It will definitely be no problem to sell it."

Wei Jingze looked at the watermelon and said, "This is the first melon, let's eat it by ourselves!"

Wei Jingze is reluctant to sell such a meaningful melon!

Everyone is fine.

"I'll have breakfast later, so I can work." The old man directly decided on the time.

Wei Jingze nodded, put the watermelon on the ground, and said, "When the time comes, leave some for the bald head, so that he won't say we're dishonest again."

It’s okay to ignore him for other things, but for the matter of eating, Chen Han must not be missing, let him know, I’m really in a hurry with you.

Anything in the village can be taken by the vegetable harvester.

After eating, it was time to eat watermelon. Wei Jingze found a kitchen knife, cleaned it, put the watermelon on the table, cut it horizontally and vertically several times, but still felt that it was not very good, so he finally chose the horizontal one. Cut, because it is easier to control, if the cut is crooked, Wei Jingze himself will suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder and feel very uncomfortable.

When the watermelon is opened, there is a fresh scent of watermelon, and the red flesh makes people very happy and coveted.

It was cut into several slices, and several people were not polite, each took a slice and tasted it.

Wei Jingze gave Dafeng one piece, peeled off the flesh of the melon with a knife, put it into his bowl, took another piece and gave it to Dalei and Dayu, two little flower dogs.

The old man took a bite first and didn't say anything. Jiang Yanzong also took a piece of watermelon and ate it politely. Yang Tianjian was not polite. After taking a bite, he nodded and said, "It's very sweet! It's delicious!"

Both the old man and Jiang Yanzong were reserved, but they both agreed that it was delicious.

Wei Jingze finally took a slice for himself. The flesh of this watermelon is red, and you can see the existence of small sequins. It is very beautiful. It tastes crunchy, sweet, and full of juice. It is a kind of enjoyment to eat the feeling of splashing!

After eating a slice, Yang Tianjian put the watermelon rind on the table and said, "I've never eaten such a delicious melon."

Wei Jingze said, "Then eat some more."

This watermelon is big enough to feed four people even if it is cut in half.

The old man also said: "Yeah, eat a little more, and eat all the cut ones. If it's not fresh, it won't taste so good."

The four men easily wiped out half of the watermelon, and Wei Jingze wrapped the other half in plastic wrap, and when the people from the restaurant came to collect the vegetables, they brought it to Chen Han.

The watermelon rind was put away by Yang Tianjian and was ready to be fed to the pigs. The watermelon rind could be eaten directly by the pigs, or cooked in pig food.The old man saw it and nodded secretly. Yang Tianjian did this to show that he took the pig in his heart.

After eating watermelon, everyone went about their own business. What Wei Jingze had to do every day was to send the chickens to the chicken coop first, then spray the eggs he picked up yesterday with a logo, pack them according to the order, and paste the delivery slip. The food collectors take it to the restaurant together, and the courier goes to the restaurant to collect the express.

Because there are too many people placing orders, there is already a backlog of orders. What Wei Jingze can do is to feed the chickens with all his heart every day, so that the chickens can lay as many eggs as possible to meet everyone's needs.

In addition to coding eggs, fish and chickens are also tagged to prove that they are from Chashui Village.

In order to take care of buyers, the export supply of fish at the restaurant has been reduced.There is not a single fin missing from Chen Han's side.

When the packing was done, Wei Jingze went to pick vegetables in his own field. At this time, the people who harvested the vegetables had almost arrived, and they weighed them in front of Wei Jingze's house. Everyone picked vegetables in their own fields in the morning. Just get food.

The person who collects the vegetables is not fixed, but is randomly appointed by Chen Han every day, in order to prevent the apprentice who collects the vegetables from making some small moves behind the scenes after he gets to know the villagers well.

Wei Jingze picked the vegetables and got the fish back, weighed them like everyone else, handed them over to the vegetable collectors, and then handed them the watermelon and eggs, so it was almost ten o'clock.

When Chen Han received half of the watermelon, he was quite touched and said, "It's hard for them to remember to leave it for me."

However, the restaurant is busy at this time, and there is not so much time to enjoy the watermelon first, let's deal with the matter of entertaining diners at noon first.

After the rice heading and filling slowly turned yellow, the number of ripe watermelons in the watermelon field gradually increased. At first, there were a few a day, and then there were more than ten, dozens, and the number increased every day.

Watermelon is not worried about selling at all, Wei Jingze took a picture standing in the watermelon field, and posted it to the WeChat group, which caused a group of hungry wolves to howl, wanting to buy watermelon.

It was almost time to deliver the food, Wei Jingze discussed that it is indeed possible to send a batch of watermelons to the imperial capital.

Discussing this matter with Jiang Yanzong, Jiang Yanzong also felt that there was no problem.

When they started ordering watermelons, everyone was like a lion. Wei Jingze was used to these guys yelling. They had plenty of money, and they had no idea about the weight of watermelons. They usually ate watermelons and asked the servants at home to cut them into pieces. Some eat it with a fruit fork, some are made into juice or made into a smoothie, but I still don’t eat much with watermelon slices, after all, it’s not very elegant to eat like that.

The weight of watermelon is relatively large, each one weighs more than ten catties, and some can even reach more than 20 catties. The main reason is that there is plenty of juice and sweetness, so it is heavy to hold in the hand.

Wei Jingze did the math, if each family bought a hundred catties, the people in this group would also have to buy a few thousand catties, so it shouldn't be too much.

The price of watermelon is not low, the price is set by Jiang Yanzong, he knows the consumption level of the people in the imperial capital, and seeing Wei Jingze going to carry fertilizer and water every day to water the watermelon field, he feels that the price is too low for Wei Jingze to work hard, So the asking price is quite high.

Based on the supply of vegetables and meat in Chashui Village in the past, the people in the imperial capital felt that the quality of the watermelon this time would not be bad, so they had no objection to the price.Wei Jingze did the math, this batch of melons sold for tens of thousands of yuan!There is a surplus of more than [-] yuan in the cost of going out, and it is indeed a profit!

Since there are so many watermelons, they won't go with the vegetables, so after confirming everyone's order quantity, Wei Jingze went around the watermelon fields. It would take several days for several thousand catties of melons to ripen, so, he insisted After waiting for a few days, the watermelons were almost ripe before picking them.

Wei Jingze and the old man worked hard all day, picked the melons, weighed them, packed them according to the different requirements of each family, wrote down the ownership of the watermelons, called a car, and transported the watermelons away.

Picking watermelons is also tiring. Just moving more than ten or twenty catties of melons like this, Wei Jingze asked the old man to rest at home, and he again watered the watermelon field with fertilizer and water. The watermelon vines are still blooming one after another. It’s okay. Continue to pollinate and grow new watermelons, and the small watermelons are also growing. Fertilizer and water must not shorten their growth.

The watermelon field has been busy like this for several days, and it is the day when the money is distributed at the beginning of the month.

After Shun Shun Dang handed out the money, someone asked, "In our village, should we rent a harvester to harvest rice this year?"

The village chief said, "This is up to your own opinion!"

"What I mean is, let's rent it in the name of the village, so that every family doesn't have to go to the food station to rent it! It's easy! Anyway, we pay for it ourselves, and we also pay for the oil."

As soon as the people below heard it, they talked a lot.

Last year, I wanted to use the harvester to go to the grain station to renew the loan. It was really troublesome to go to each family. If I borrowed it in the name of the village, everyone would not have to run back and forth.

The village head asked Wei Jingze in a low voice, "What do you think about this matter?"

Wei Jingze said, "It sounds like a good thing, but it depends on what to do."

Good things, if not done well, without a charter, bad things will happen.

So the village head said: "Now let's express your opinion. If you plan to rent a harvester this year, raise your hand!"

Almost every family raised their hands. Those who didn’t use the harvester last year planned to use it this year. Now that they have enough money, they don’t need to worry about the money. And after all, it’s more cost-effective to hire a machine than to hire people, and those who plant late rice There is more time to ensure that "double grabbing" is no longer grabbing, and there is no need to get up early and be greedy.

The village chief counted the numbers, and he could see who was who at a glance, and he quickly confirmed that each family planned to rent a harvester.

"Then how many people want to rent in the name of renting in the village?"

Fewer people raised their hands, and I guess they still have doubts.
