Chapter 328 Changes

"Is Li Village a place that specializes in growing Sanhua plums? Is it a uniform variety? Is the taste consistent?" Jiang Shanshan took the opportunity to call An Songyu out.

This allowed her to completely escape Bi Lizhu's nagging.

However, she couldn't answer any of Jiang Shanshan's questions.

An Songyu felt a little embarrassed and quickly explained:

"Auntie, when we went to the Jian family today, my sister and brother-in-law brought back a lot of plums and melons."

"Later, I heard Ziyu talk about the situation in Licun, so I thought I'd come back and ask about it."

She hasn't even had time to inquire about Li Village yet!

Seeing An Songyu's slightly flushed face, Jiang Shanshan couldn't help but smile:

"Xiaoyu, was I too hasty?"

"I just ate some plums and cantaloupe, and I thought they tasted really good, so I wanted to ask more about them."

"I seem to vaguely remember that Sister Ziyu didn't marry someone from very far away?"

"Yes, although it's outside our Shuncheng, it's in the next city."

"If you drive, it should take about two hours to get there."

"That's a great distance!" Jiang Shanshan couldn't help but exclaim, her eyes lighting up.

If it's just this distance, even if you pick the fruit on the same day, you can get there on the same day.

If handled properly, it's not just those fruit shops that can be done; it can also be done at the wholesale market.

This is the specific situation...

An Songyu looked at Jiang Shanshan with some doubt: "Does Auntie really think it tastes good?"

"Of course!" Jiang Shanshan looked at An Songyu with amusement:

"You should know that this is to reduce damage during transportation and to allow for a longer sales period."

"The fruits we usually buy are usually a little unripe when they are picked, right?"

An Songyu nodded honestly.

Although transportation in this era is not as advanced as it will be in the future.

Many fruits from other provinces and regions are only available in their southern province if they are of good quality and can be stored for a short period of time.

However, in terms of fruit ripeness, it's actually much better than it will be in the future.

In another ten or twenty years, buying fruit across the country will be much more convenient.

But the chances of getting tree-ripened fruit are much slimmer now.

Although more fruit varieties will be discovered in the future.

The issue of varying tastes can also be addressed through factors such as variety and transportation.

But An Songyu has always felt that...

She can eat good food now, and not much less than she will in the future.

"So if the Sanhua plums and melons in Licun are all of the same taste and quality as the ones you brought back, then we are not helping them."

"It is an opportunity that belongs to both of us."

"So, Xiaoyu, you and Ziyu don't need to feel embarrassed." Jiang Shanshan smiled gently, as if she had completely seen through An Songyu's thoughts.

An Songyu was indeed a little embarrassed.

That's why I didn't ask directly when I came back.

"Then I'll call Ziyu later and ask him to help me ask?" An Songyu replied subconsciously.

After saying that, he realized what he had said.

Jiang Shanshan told her the truth because she was family.

But if she asked in the same way...

I wonder what the situation will be like when we get to Licun.

As the saying goes, a business that's rushed doesn't seem to be a good fit!

Seeing that An Songyu had already realized what was happening, Jiang Shanshan gave him a few more careful pointers.

Doing business may seem like a simple matter of buying and selling.

However, there are still many intricacies involved.

Let alone a kid like An Songyu who has only been out of school for less than a year.

Even though they've been in business for so long, they still have to learn from others!

After listening carefully, An Songyu discussed it with Jiang Shanshan before calling Jian Ziyu, checking the time.

She made no attempt to hide anything from Jian Ziyu.

Upon hearing An Songyu's words, Jian Ziyu couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at?" An Songyu couldn't help but ask, pouting slightly.

Are you laughing at her?

And she told him everything!

"I just think your aunt is really amazing!" Jian Ziyu couldn't help but exclaim.

He didn't know whether what Jiang Shanshan said was true or not.

But after listening to Jiang Shanshan's words, he did feel much less burdened.

They would genuinely and sincerely help her with her affairs.

An Songyu nodded without hesitation:

"Of course, it's not just my aunt, my mom, my aunt-in-law, and my fourth aunt. They're all very capable too."

“Yes!” Jian Ziyu couldn’t help but sigh when he heard his girlfriend’s words.

In particular, I recalled the three people I had met in Jiangcun last year.

It's understandable that people admire Bi Lizhu, a professional woman who has worked in the city for so long and is able to balance her life and work so well.

Of the three, only Jiang Shanshan had been managing the fruit shop with An Jianmin.

The other two, one of them simply runs a farmhouse inn with her husband in Jiangcun.

One of them even fled Jiangcun because of the rumors.

Over the years, I haven't completely stopped working.

At most, they could only work in places like garment factories.

It's only been about half a year since Jiangcun was demolished.

However, a tremendous change was observed in the three individuals.

Nowadays, Jiang Shanshan manages all the fruit chain stores and wholesale stalls in Shuncheng all by herself.

Not only is the business no worse than before, but it is also doing just as well.

They are even continuing to expand as the couple had planned.

Even so, her life wasn't like Jiangcun's, where she was always busy.

Now, she has learned a lot about managing a business and managing her employees.

Yuan Qionghua, who was originally just busy in Jiangcun.

In the past, if she were asked to go to Rongdi alone, she wouldn't be completely afraid.

But I do feel a bit apprehensive every time I go.

After all, this city is different every day.

Each visit made her realize the difference between life in Jiangcun and life in the city.

But now, she is probably more familiar with many places in the city than people who have lived there for eight or ten years.

She no longer felt any fear of going to unfamiliar places.

She is no longer afraid that the city's development will leave her behind.

She could even confidently find a new owner for the dilapidated house and land.

Then let them shine anew.

Geng Yulan, who always kept herself to herself and whose heart was only for her family.

Furthermore, it proved this with facts:

Once you become strong, all those rumors and gossip will amount to nothing.

Nowadays, those Jiangcun people who could say hurtful things to her face without a second thought are now gone.

Now, standing in front of her, I feel nothing but admiration.

Geng Yulan herself was unaware of it.

She gained courage because of the money she received from the demolition of her home.

Rather, things had already changed without our realizing it.

All she knew was that when she saw these people again, she wouldn't care what they said.
