Chapter 111: Repaying a Favor

Dad Ye looked at the remaining blueberries and figs, not knowing what to do. Even though he had just earned a large sum of money, he was still worried.

Fortunately, there are other ways to deal with it at home, but it is still uncomfortable to suffer a loss suddenly.

What if the other party does something bad next time? He was not happy to lose a big buyer.

At this time, the village chief also ran over from home.

But he arrived too late, and the buyers had already left.

"What's wrong? You're not happy even though you made money? Why are you so embarrassed?"

When the village chief saw that the yard was empty, he thought that Ye Minghai's family had made a lot of money again this time!

Turning around, I saw why this person looked so worried.

Before Ye's father could finish his words, Huang Xi'e interrupted hastily:

"What else could it be? They haven't finished harvesting them yet! Here! These buckets of blueberries and figs are confiscated!"

Zhang Shuiying's daughter-in-law seemed to be gloating:

"Ye Zi has offended someone this time. Next time, maybe they will find an excuse and refuse to buy anything. If that happens, all the strawberries you planted will be in vain!"

Before Zhang Shuiying had time to ask her daughter-in-law to shut up, she heard her say this and was suddenly startled for a moment.

When he looked at Ye Dagen and the others, the anxiety in his eyes was almost revealed.

He immediately grabbed Ye Minghai and asked repeatedly:

"Haizi, what they just said, will they really not accept strawberries? Then what should we do with our strawberries?"

It's no wonder that she was anxious. These acres of strawberries had cost her too much effort. She had even put all her savings into it and she almost had to live near the fields every day.

The other villagers became anxious and surrounded Ye's father to ask questions.

"Haizi, if we don't collect strawberries, who are we going to sell them to?"

"Will everyone be white?"

"It seems that the guy named Wang Xin just now is not a good person!"

Everyone gathered around Ye's father, talking to him one after another. Ye's father became more and more panicked and anxious. The sweat on his head dripped onto the ground. His mouth opened and closed, not knowing what to say.

The village chief was confused. He came today just to see how Ye Minghai's family was selling vegetables. After all, many families in the village grew strawberries and hoped to make money.

Being the village chief is stressful, and he was the one who took the lead in supporting everyone in growing strawberries. Now that an unexpected situation has occurred, he is anxious and angry, and he grabbed Ye Laogen and asked what happened.

After all, the quarrel just now was not particularly pleasant. Although Wang Xin finally accepted the price, Ye Laogen still told the whole story again. At the end, Huang Xi'e was still making sarcastic remarks:

"I said that our village has been poor for so long, and so many people are planting strawberries. Why should we follow Ye Minghai's family just because they told us to plant them? Now it's okay, maybe they won't even harvest them." Fortunately, she still wanted to wait for everyone to plant first and see the situation.

The village chief asked everyone to calm down first:

"Since they said they would harvest the strawberries, and there are plenty of them in our village, don't worry for now."

After all, he is the village chief and has seen a lot of storms and waves. At least he is calm:

"Don't worry, the strawberries will be ripe soon. Just take good care of them during this period and wait for them to come and pick them."

The village chief has good persuasiveness and is popular in the village, so everyone was temporarily appeased.

After talking for a while, most of the villagers left. There was no point in thinking too much, so I decided to go back and plant the land.

Only the village chief, Ye Laogen, Zhang Shuiying and Ye Dajun were left.

The village chief smoked another cigarette and thought for a while:

"We have to be prepared for this, just in case someone trips us up."

The village chief had seen this kind of thing before. Before, someone came to Shanbei Village to collect grain and found all kinds of excuses to lower the price, saying that the road was too far and the freight was not cost-effective.

The villagers here have all packed up their bags. There is nothing they can do. Their children are waiting to go to school and pay tuition, and those who have sons need to get married.

It is not easy for rural people to make money. They go to the mountains and fields every day. Everyone is eyeing those who can make money. There is no way but to reduce the price of grain by a few cents before selling it.

In the past, tea oil could make money, and it’s not that no one wanted to grow it, but some people tried it and found that it only grew on the mountains, and if they grew it themselves, the tea seeds were small and produced little oil, so they invested their money and got nothing in return.

Everyone in the village is keeping an eye on the tea oil trees on the mountain.

What's more, Ye Dajun had previously suffered losses from many foreign fruit merchants when growing citrus oranges, so no one had a say better than him.

Ye Dajun expressed his opinion with a serious face:

"We have to prepare for both situations. We can't relax on this matter."

"I know a lot of fruit merchants, but the price may not be that high." The bargaining was even severe, and Ye Dajun felt bitter.

"Then what should we do? These strawberries will be ripe soon."

Zhang Shuiying was very anxious. If this man changed his mind, who would she sell it to? How could she sell so much in the county? She had never been to the city.

Ye Laogen stood with his back to the ground, while Ye's father squatted beside him, obviously without any good ideas.

"Well, I'll contact my old customers and see if I can get the next batch." Ye Laogen decided in a deep voice.

Before his retirement, Ye Laogen was a chef in a big hotel in the city. Over the years, there are still many gourmets who come to eat here. If there is really no other solution, I might as well ask him shamelessly to see if there is any way.

"There are too many strawberries. Your regular customers may not be able to eat much."

The village chief rejected the proposal.

"Don't worry. You forgot that my family has an online app. At worst, our village can set up an e-commerce platform to sell the goods ourselves. We have plenty of manpower. We can save a lot of labor if we pack the goods ourselves."

Ye's mother's heart was pounding. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she continued, "Now that the Internet is well developed, let's try to sell goods. My group chat has also developed a lot, and the mini program has a wider range. I am not afraid that no one will buy it."

When Ye Zhen came out of the room, he saw several people standing, squatting, and looking sad, all of them were like cabbages bitten by frost.

What's going on? Has everyone become the silent lambs?

When Ye's father saw Ye Zhen coming out, he instantly became energetic and stood up:

"Ye Zi, you're quick-witted. Tell me what we should do?"

After Ye Zhenyi heard everyone's thoughts,

"What's going to happen will happen. There's no point in thinking about it now."

Ye Zhen paused and continued:

"Don't worry, everyone. Since we can find Wanmao Supermarket to buy it, other people will come to us. I already have a plan. Just come to me when the strawberries are ripe!"

She had already calculated that the turning point was almost here.

…

At the same time, the fruits that Ye Zhen sent out have arrived.

After Wang Hui finished his class, he suddenly received a phone call saying that there was a package of fresh produce for him to pick up.

Wang Hui was confused, but he had to attend classes in the afternoon and had no time. His wife also taught in the same school and both of them were not at home, so he could only wait until after get off work to get the money.

I replied to the courier embarrassedly and asked him to leave it at the community security office.

After get off work, the couple went home together.

Wang Hui thought that there was a fresh food package, so he got out of the car to pick it up. The package was large and heavy, and was wrapped tightly.

Wang Hui was quite puzzled and asked his wife beside him: "When did you buy a package? It's so big, what's inside it?"

Wang Hui’s wife was also confused. She has been busy with schoolwork recently and has little time for online shopping. She even asked her parents to pick up her children.

"I haven't bought any express delivery recently."

The couple thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. The address above was Yuncheng, but they couldn't think of any relatives or friends in Yuncheng.

But the information, address, number, etc. above belong to Wang Hui.

When Wang Hui opened the package, he was greeted by a rich fruity aroma that instantly made his body feel relaxed after a day of classes.

My groggy head became much clearer, and I couldn't help but exclaim:

“Smells so good!”

When Wang Hui opened them all, the whole room was instantly filled with various fruit scents.

Pure and natural.

Wang Hui's wife came over in surprise:

"What is this? Why does it smell so good?"

It is more natural and fresh than a new fruity and floral perfume from a big brand that she bought. It makes her feel like walking in an orchard full of joy at the harvest, surrounded by a countryside filled with the scent of fruits and flowers.

My body feels light and it's like I've had a full body spa.

Wang Hui: "They are all fruits! Honey, get some food to pack them up."

Inside was a huge red fruit. The couple picked it up and sniffed it carefully without caring about their image.

What kind of fruit is this?

It smells like strawberry, and its appearance is deep red like a gem. The skin looks thin, covering the red magma-like flesh inside, but the skin feels smooth to the touch.

This is the mutated low-level spiritual fruit that Ye Zhen sent over, strawberry!

It just looks a little different from strawberries.

It's just a huge difference!

There are six in total, the others are just the usual grapes, blueberries, loquats and figs etc!

There are many kinds, but they are neatly arranged.

It looks like an ordinary fruit, but when you take it out, it is not ordinary at all.

Have you ever seen grapes that are as crystal clear as agate beads? Each one is the same size, as if they were measured bit by bit with a ruler.

The blueberries are a circle larger than the largest varieties on the market and each one is plump.

Not to mention the figs, several varieties were placed together, yellow, red, and green, with water droplets on the skin.

Both couples were shocked.

Who is so generous? I have never seen such good fruits in imported supermarkets!

This might not be cheap to buy.

"Honey, there's a note inside!" Wang Hui's sharp-eyed wife found the folded note inside the grapes.

Wang Hui opened it and found out who sent it.

"This was sent by the girl who saved our son's life before."

The couple looked at each other, moved and ashamed.

He is a great benefactor to our family, why do we still need him to send things to us?

At the beginning, Ye Zhen used spiritual energy to repair himself, so naturally his body recovered quickly. He slipped out of the hospital without telling anyone.

The next day, when the couple went to visit with their belongings, they naturally came back empty-handed.

I didn't expect that they still cared about me and sent me things. At the beginning, my family only paid for the medical expenses and bought some supplements. Compared with them, I am really far behind!

"Now that we know the benefactor's address, wife, let's buy some things and send them over. Our son is safe thanks to him."

"Last time they didn't take the money, so we can't be ignorant of etiquette."

Wang Hui walked around the living room

"Well, didn't the benefactor say that he grew a lot of fruit at home? Ask who they sell it to? Do they want to ship it to Yuncheng?"

"Jincheng's economy is much better than Yuncheng's. She doesn't need to worry about transportation. Just send it over. We have ways to sell it for her."

"I'll go find my big brother later. Doesn't his company have foreign trade export business? It includes fresh fruits and vegetables. It's no problem to ask my big brother to open another line."

Wang Hui's wife nodded and added:

"I'll go home and ask my parents later, isn't Jincheng planning to prepare for an international sports meeting?"

"We must need to buy a lot of fruit. Ask Dad if he has ordered any. It will be faster for them to order from our benefactor!"

Wang Hui's eyes lit up!

Although he is a teacher, his family is a government worker. As the International Games is opening in Jincheng, the local government is naturally responsible for procurement.

There must be a way to find his father.

Besides, Wang Hui looked at the fruit at hand.

This fruit is really good! It is perfect for entertaining international friends.

Although it is difficult to repay a favor, in the eyes of the couple, Ye Zhen saved his son and actually saved his entire family.

The two couldn't imagine what would become of them after their son got into trouble, and they just wanted to repay Ye Zhen.
