Chapter 969: A Dream (50)

They had already weighed their own strawberries before they came, so even though they were sold together, there would be no trouble when dividing the money.

Of course, it was impossible to divide the money in public, so after selling the strawberries, they packed up and went home.

It was not until I got home that I poured out the coins.

A pound of strawberries costs 40 wen, and 20 pounds costs 800 wen.

Although the number of strawberries from the two families is different, the difference is not that big. Each family earns three or four hundred wen, so the income is similar.

Don't underestimate these three or four hundred coins. You should know that this is only the first day's income, and there will be income every day in the future.

The strawberries in the field grow continuously, but they are not like ginseng, which is a one-time deal.

In the afternoon, when Xiao Chengjin came back, he was very happy to learn that the strawberries had been sold successfully and at a very good price.

This is good, it brings them one step closer to returning.

From that day on, strawberries ripened every day. In order to prevent the strawberries from rotting, no matter how many ripened each day, Su Cangshan and Xiao Yougen would get up early and pick the strawberries. They would not even have time to eat breakfast. They would just put two cakes in their pockets and go straight to the county town.

Without Su Ruanruan following them, they didn't even need to push the cart, and the two of them walked even faster.

The reason why two people have to go together is mainly because the strawberries they sell are rare and expensive, and they may be targeted by others. If two people go together, there will always be someone to look after them.

Fortunately, there is still some time before the summer harvest, so there is no need to worry.

Three days later, this morning, when Su Cangshan and Xiao Yougen returned, they actually came back in a mule cart.

When seeing this scene, Su Ruanruan was stunned.

But since there were outsiders present, Su Runrun did not ask any questions. She just followed them silently and went to the back of the house.

The man who followed him was about thirty or forty years old. He was wearing a set of fine cotton clothes that were still about 80% new. He was obviously a rich man.

When the man got to the back and saw the field of strawberries, he was so happy that he burst into laughter.

"Brother Cangshan, Brother Yougen, let's make it a deal. From now on, I'll have people come over to pick up the strawberries every morning, so you don't have to run back and forth. Don't worry about the money. I'll settle it for you right on the spot."

Su Cangshan and Xiao Yougen both smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Of course we trust Shopkeeper Wang."

The man called Shopkeeper Wang looked at the strawberries and was about to leave. Just as he was about to turn around, he noticed the watermelon.

"What is this?"

Shopkeeper Wang thought he was very knowledgeable, but he had never seen a watermelon.

Su Cangshan explained, "This is a watermelon. I bought it together with the strawberries. It is also a kind of fruit, but it is not ripe yet."

Shopkeeper Wang narrowed his eyes and asked, "When will it be ready?"

Su Ruanruan had already told Su Cangshan this, so Su Cangshan immediately said, "It will probably be mature in June, the earliest it will be in the middle of the month, and the latest it will be in the end of the month."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Shopkeeper Wang nodded, "Then when it's ready, don't forget me! If it's a good thing, we can continue to cooperate."

"Of course, don't worry, Manager Wang."

It was not until Manager Wang left on the mule cart that Su Ruanruan asked Su Cangshan, "Dad, who is this Manager Wang?"

"This is the owner of the largest grocery store in the county. He said that from now on he will buy all our strawberries, no matter how many there are."
