Zhou Bin was completely conquered by the taste of this cherry tomato and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Oh! This tomato is so delicious!"

Professor Chen said happily: "Look, we have quite a lot of honey cherry tomatoes this year."

Zhou Bin looked in the direction of his hand and saw that there were almost acres of tomato trees covered with fruits, which seemed to be more than other tomato trees.

Zhou Bin couldn't help but ask curiously: "Professor Chen, it seems to me that this kind of tomato has more fruits than other tomatoes!"

Professor Chen nodded: "Yes! The yield is indeed higher than others. I estimate that each tree produces at least 10% more."

Zhou Bin was very excited: "That's great! We are going to be rich in the future!"

Professor Chen said with emotion: "Speaking of this matter, I have to thank Chen Bin."

"Oh? What did Chen Bin do?" Zhou Bin asked with interest.

Professor Chen laughed and said, "It was because he stole the tomato seedlings last winter and left them frozen for a few days. Unexpectedly, the seedlings grew vigorously and produced more fruits."

Zhou Bin couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard this: "Is there such an effect? So Chen Bin actually helped?"

Professor Chen said happily: "Yes! If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have discovered the characteristics of this species. I will know it later."

Chen Bin, who was standing by, felt a little embarrassed by the compliment. Zhou Bin immediately said, "Chen Bin, you don't have to pay back the money. This is my reward for you."

Chen Bin had originally wanted to return the money to Zhou Bin as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that he would not want it.

For a moment, Chen Bin was so happy that he didn't know what to say. When he came to his senses, Chen Bin immediately thanked Zhou Bin: "President, why are you so nice? Thank you so much!"

Zhou Bin joked, "Did you never plan to pay it back?"

Chen Bin hurriedly explained: "No, President, you see I have been working hard, but I earn less..."

Zhou Bin laughed and said, "I'm just kidding. You should work hard and use the money you earn to treat your mother and save more to marry a wife."

Chen Bin's face turned red. Zhou Bin immediately pulled Professor Chen and said, "Professor Chen, let's go to the office. I have something to discuss with you."

Professor Chen didn't know what Zhou Bin was going to say, so he went to the office with him.

After arriving at the office, Zhou Bin said with a smile: "Professor Chen, you have worked hard for more than half a year. Now the varieties you have cultivated are about to have a good harvest. I would like to discuss the authorization."

Professor Chen was stunned: "Mr. Zhou, what authorization are you talking about?"

Zhou Bin smiled and said, "These are the varieties you have researched. Our cooperative cannot use them for nothing. I plan to pay two million to buy your achievements so that people in our village can grow and sell the tomato varieties you have developed. What do you think?"

Professor Chen was so surprised that he quickly said, "Oh, Mr. Zhou, you are so polite. This is the result of our joint efforts. You are still paying us salaries. How can we ask you for licensing fees?"

Zhou Bin smiled and said, "That's not the same thing. This is the scientific research result of your team. We can't use it for free. If you agree, I will give you the fee immediately and you can distribute it to your team. Other things remain unchanged. We still need your long-term support."

Professor Chen was very touched, not because Zhou Bin gave him so much money, but because their scientific research results were valued, which made him happiest.

So Professor Chen nodded and agreed. When Zhou Bin saw that Professor Chen agreed, he immediately asked someone to prepare a letter of authorization and signed the agreement with Professor Chen immediately.

Zhou Bin then filled out a check and handed it to Professor Chen, who distributed it to his team.

After this task was completed, time passed quickly and it was mid-March in a blink of an eye. At this time, the tomatoes in the Beiyuan Village Tomato Cooperative were finally ripe.

Zhou Bin contacted merchants from Qincheng, Jingzhou and the county seat to come and purchase, and the villagers held a grand welcome ceremony for them with gongs and drums.

It was a spring day with gentle breeze and cloudless sky, and the greenhouse of Beiyuan Village Tomato Cooperative was officially opened.

The first convoy consisted of five trucks, which came from Qincheng. At this time, every household in the village went out and started picking tomatoes.

As baskets of tomatoes were brought out, they were weighed and immediately loaded onto trucks. After a busy day, all five trucks were full.

Because the quality of these tomatoes was very good, they were sold directly for 2.5 yuan per pound. Five trucks took away a total of 50,000 pounds of tomatoes, and the company earned 125,000 yuan on the first day.

Everyone was smiling from ear to ear. If things continued like this, they would be able to make a lot of money from the tomatoes in their village.

The next day, merchants from Jingzhou arrived. They brought six trucks and transported away 60,000 kilograms of tomatoes, earning 150,000 yuan that day.

Later, trucks from the county took away another 40,000 kilograms, and the company earned another 100,000 yuan that day.

In just three days, they had already earned 375,000 yuan, which stunned everyone.

On the fourth day, the highlight came. Five large trucks came directly from Qincheng, specifically to transport honey cherry tomatoes.

Just five days ago, Zhou Bin specially invited several major fruit merchants in Qincheng to come and taste their honey cherry tomatoes.

After tasting them, everyone was full of praise for their honey cherry tomatoes, believing that they were the highest-end and most delicious cherry tomatoes they had ever seen.

At that time, they offered to place an order at a price of 18 yuan per catty. Although Zhou Bin felt a little dissatisfied, since it was the first year of sales, Zhou Bin nodded and agreed.

Today is the day they come to pick up the fruit. Zhou Bin has customized small boxes with beautiful packaging for all the cherry tomatoes, each box weighs ten kilograms, so that they can be sold as gift fruits.
