Chapter 136 Test

The courier Xiao Zhang is here, and this time he has upgraded his courier skills and no longer drives a courier tricycle.

Just for Ye Zhen’s express delivery, relying on the previous three wheels, it would take several trips back and forth every day.

"Pa" Xiao Zhang closed the door of the four-wheel truck and took out the tightly packed express from the back.

"Uncle Haizi, I've brought the express for you." Xiao Zhang walked in carrying the express.

Father Ye quickly stepped forward and carried it: "Sorry for the trouble, sorry for the trouble, I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Xiao Zhang dodged and said, "It's okay, uncle. There's another one in the back of the car. Go get that one."

"Why!"

I don’t know what my brother sent, and he didn’t tell me clearly over the phone.

"Xiao Zhang is here, have some water and eat some melon." Grandma Ye handed over the cut melon with a smile on her face.

Xiao Zhang was not polite and drove the small truck all the way. There was no air conditioning, only a small fan blowing, and it was extremely hot.

The weather was hot and the sun was shining brightly in the yard. Although the place was spacious, Dad Ye was afraid that the people who came to help would get heatstroke, so he and Grandpa Ye built a shed next to the grape trellis and brought an electric fan over to blow. Ye Zhen set up a wind-gathering array, and it immediately became much cooler.

Several aunties came in the morning to help pack the wolfberries on a daily basis. This is also a popular job. If there weren't only a few people involved, the aunties in the village would have worn down Ye Zhen's door!

Another batch of wolfberries was sold out and the yard became empty.

Dad Ye opened the package. There was a layer of dry ice on the outside, which had not melted yet. The seafood inside was chilled and gave off cold steam.

“Wow!”

"Where did the boss get so much seafood?" Grandma Ye squatted down to take a look. The big prawns were as big as a palm, as thick as a thumb, and had plump meat. They looked delicious.

Take out the shrimps, which are packed with other fish, scallops, and conch.

"Oh, we're in for another treat today." Grandma Ye separated the seafood. The box was big, and there were two or three pounds of shrimps. She left some for home and gave some to Uncle Ye.

Another package was opened to reveal fish oil for Grandma Ye and Grandpa Ye. Uncle Ye even called to remind them to take the fish oil in moderation, and also bought milk powder for the two elders to supplement their nutrition and protein.

Grandma Ye felt comforted. Although her children were not rich, they all had consciences and always cared about them.

Uncle Ye wanted Grandma Ye and her family to live in the city, but Grandma Ye refused:

"I won't come. I've lived in the countryside all my life. I have company when I walk around with my neighbors. When I come to your place, the house is not even as big as the yard in my hometown, and there's no one to talk to. I'll stay at my second brother's house and won't go anywhere else!"

Uncle Ye opened a small clothing factory in the provincial capital's industrial park. It was not particularly large and was an outsourced factory. When there were orders, he was very busy but also earned a lot. When it was not busy, the couple would hire a few temporary workers to do the work.

After being busy for a few years, they bought a house in the provincial capital and settled down. Grandma Ye had lived there for more than a month, but she couldn't get used to it and asked her son to send her back.

Uncle Ye had no choice but to tell his mother:

"I want you to take me to the medical check-up, and you don't need to do farm work. You and dad are getting old, so remember to drink the milk powder I sent back every day."

"I know, I know! Your father and I are in good health now!" Grandma Ye kept complaining and nagging, but the smile on her face never left her face.

After the phone call, Grandma Ye was unable to sit still. She told her family that she was going to the pond to pick lotus leaves and prepare to dry some lotus leaf tea.

Mom Ye followed Dad Ye to weed the vegetable garden, while little brother Ye learned editing from online tutorials.

Since everyone in the family was busy, Ye Zhen went back to his room to meditate.

As his cultivation level increased, Ye Zhen's spirit planting skills also improved a lot, and the spirit stones he brought back became smaller!

If the tree species on the mountain want to evolve from mortal to spiritual species as quickly as possible, they must have sufficient vitality and rich spiritual energy!

Ye Zhen drove his car to the deep pit again to look for spirit crystals. Spirit crystals would only appear when the spiritual energy was extremely dense.

Compared to spirit stones, the spiritual energy content of a spirit crystal is the sum of the contents of tens of millions of spirit stones, and it is even purer.

If you are lucky, you can find a spiritual marrow transformed from a spiritual crystal and bury it in the back mountain, and the ground veins will change.

As time goes by, the spiritual marrow will produce spiritual stones, and the mountain behind will slowly turn into a fairyland and blessed mountain.

No, the more he thought about it, the more beautiful it became. Ye Zhen controlled his wandering thoughts and excitedly rushed to Wuping Mountain.

My dear big baby Lingshi, I am here to dig you out again!

Jincheng Sports Committee Office

Wang Li sorted out the further inspection report of the strawberries and brought a plate of strawberries to the leader.

"Is this the new fruit you selected for the sports meeting?" Wang Li's leader picked up a strawberry.

He sniffed it lightly, ate one, his eyes lit up, and he nodded secretly.

It has excellent color, aroma and taste, and is indeed a good fruit.

Wang Li nodded and reported the progress of the sports meeting to his superior:

"A total of 204 countries are participating in this World Games. As of today, the regional sports committees have confirmed the participation of 11,028 athletes."

"The six recommended fruits, Guangwu raspberries, Chadian brand rose-scented grapes, Hongqipo sugar-heart apples, Yulu pears, Wuxi peaches, and Jingbai pears have been pre-ordered and put into storage. This year's new Gaotang strawberries have also been put into the cold storage. Based on the fruit consumption of other countries in previous years, the remaining additional ordinary fruits, vegetables, beverages, etc. have also been purchased!"

The leader showed satisfaction: "This year, our Yuncheng will host the sports meeting. We must make good preparations for food and accommodation, and we must show the demeanor of a great country."

"It will be open in two days. There will be a lot of people coming. We must ensure the safety of public security and property, and show the world a positive, civilized, safe and progressive city!"

Wang Li nodded solemnly.

Dad Ye is very annoying!

He and Ye's mother had just finished their work when they received a phone call.

"What did you say? You want to cooperate with us?" Dad Ye felt puzzled.

Wang Xin smiled and said, "It's like this, Boss Ye. Our company plans to rent a large amount of land in Shanbei Village. We would like to ask if you are willing to serve as our technical consultant. We only need your support in farming."

Father Ye frowned, not knowing why the other party asked such a question. He couldn't even finish farming his own land, so how could he possibly be a consultant for someone else? Besides, he only knew how to farm, and didn't know anything else.

Now his family’s vegetables and fruits are sold to the other company. The other company harvests whatever he grows, and he has to work for them no matter what he does.

So Ye's father didn't quite understand and refused: "I don't know anything about consultants. I'm just a farmer. I don't have that ability. You should find someone else!"

Wang Xin was just testing the waters. It would be great if the other party agreed. If not, he still had a solution:

"It's like this, it's my fault for not explaining it clearly," Wang Xin took a step back and told his plan:

"Boss Ye, do you want to expand your planting? After all, our supermarket has branches in first-tier cities across the country, with a large market share. Needless to say, the demand for fruits and vegetables is huge. As long as Boss Ye seizes this opportunity and expands the planting area, the income will naturally be better than the current small-scale operations!"

Seeing that Ye's father didn't say anything, Wang Xin further tempted him:

"So the company plans to cooperate with you. You are only responsible for growing the fruits and vegetables, and the rest of the packaging, transportation and marketing company will take care of it."

Father Ye was puzzled: "I grow my own vegetables and fruits and sell them to you. What benefit will this change of cooperation bring to me?"

Wang Xin suppressed his impatience, "Of course it's different. You have to bear the risk of the fruit and vegetable market now. For example, the market demand for a certain kind of vegetable suddenly drops sharply, but you grow a lot of it. The company reduces its purchases according to demand, and you have to bear the rest yourself. If you sign a new contract now, you only need to plant the land and don't have to worry about anything else. The company will be responsible for all subsequent risks."

In fact, Wang Xin has not said that the company is optimistic about the Ye family’s fruits and vegetables and has offered better conditions. The company wants the Ye family to invest in the company’s technology. In addition to selling fruits and vegetables to the company, there will be additional dividends, but the price of fruits and vegetables will be slightly reduced. In the future, fruits and vegetables will only be purchased from their company.

But Wang Xin didn't say it.

Father Ye refused without even considering it: "Forget it, you can find someone else! My family has a small appetite, so it's enough to make a little money."

The family savings are already considerable, and we already grow a lot of crops, so if we expand the scale, we will be too busy to handle it all at once.

Besides, even if we want to expand the scale, can’t we do it step by step by ourselves? Do we have to cooperate with others?

Wang Xin never expected that the other party would disagree. Fearing that the other party did not understand, he emphasized:

"Boss Ye, think carefully. You don't have to spend a penny. As long as you grow the land well, you can earn at least five to ten times more than you do now!"

"Whether it's personnel or venue equipment, everything is taken care of by the company. This is much easier than what you have now!"

Father Ye really thought that the other party was looking for him to cooperate. Although the other party's proposal was attractive, he still did not change his original intention.

"I'm sorry, my family doesn't have this idea at the moment. Why don't you look for people in the village? They are all good at farming." Dad Ye said with a smile.

Originally all these conversations were normal, but Wang Xin never expected that the Ye family would agree to his proposal.

This interrupted all his thoughts, and all his dividends and the price difference he expected to earn were gone!

There is nothing more frustrating and infuriating than having your dinner delivered.

Wang Xin sneered: "I heard that Boss Ye's strawberries are ripe?"

Dad Ye didn't understand: "Yeah." He was just about to say that they were sold out and he had to wait for the next crop of strawberries.

Before Ye's father could finish his words, the other party interrupted his thoughts:

"I'm sorry, our company purchased a new variety of jasmine white strawberries from Country R. The market feedback is good, so we increased the purchase volume. The market is currently saturated, so Boss Ye should find other supermarkets for his strawberries."

Wang Xinqing sneered and waited for the other party's strawberries to ripen. If he couldn't find a buyer, they would either rot in the field or be sold at a low price. There was no other way.
