Lin Anshu is an ordinary, lowly office worker. The competition in the company is intense, and the boss loves to fine employees and make empty promises. After working diligently for a whole year, sh...
Strawberries priced at 66 yuan per pound were thus born out of nowhere.
Sure enough, after she posted the message in the vegetable selling group, some people complained that it was too expensive, but even more people placed orders.
Everyone buys in portions; very few people buy just one pound.
At this time of year, the fruits sold outside are mostly watermelons, peaches, apricots, cantaloupes, and so on.
Strawberries are a fruit that is now very hard to find.
The members in the vegetable-selling group are all seasoned vegetable buyers and highly approve of the quality of Lin Anshu's fruits and vegetables.
Everyone didn't even need to try it; they all clicked on the grocery shopping app to place their orders.
To be honest, after the grocery shopping mini-program came out, they were a little unaccustomed to it at first, but later they found it quite useful.
In the past, everyone would simply join the group chat.
Buddhist-style Chao Ge: @Group Owner Uncle An, Boss Lin, give me three servings, same as always, I'll pay for the shipping!

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Anshu's family didn't produce much fruit and that, apart from grapes, they weren't currently selling other fruits to vendors, Chao would have wanted to buy up all the fruit they grew.
Oh, by the way, the "Buddhist Brother Chao" is the guy who went to Qingshui Village with his wife and accidentally ordered a lot of cherries from Lin Jianshe's family.
Of course, so far, he has only bought vegetables from Lin Anshu's family.
This is the first time I've bought fruit today.
The reason he sent three messages in a row was to make his presence known so that Lin Anshu would see them and ship the goods as soon as possible.
In the group, there are still more local people buying groceries.
People like him, who are from out of town, have to wait if they want to buy groceries.
Sometimes, people in the group will deliberately cook the vegetables they bought into various dishes and then post them in the group.
This was torture for Chao and his wife, who couldn't enjoy the freshly served dishes right away.
Or, why not just buy a house near Qingshui Village and live there whenever you have free time?
Once the thought appeared, it was impossible to suppress it.
After Chao told his wife about this idea...
He originally thought his wife would object.
But to everyone's surprise, Mrs. Li spoke with a look of delight.
"Honey, you're so smart! I think it's a good idea!"
"To be honest, I was just about to tell you that I'm going to Qingshui Village again this week."
"If we could buy a house near that place, we could drive there in no time."
"Honey, it's your fault!"
Touching the cheek that Mrs. Li had kissed, Chao felt inexplicably elated and immediately went to make a call to arrange for someone to help him book a house.
For him, he could afford any villa in Guangzhou.
Buying a house near Qingshui Village is a piece of cake.
It's like someone with 100 yuan buying a 50-cent trinket.
Just for fun!
In the group, not only was Chao tagging Lin Anshu, but some non-locals who were later added to the group were also tagging her in various ways.
The only difference is how much you buy.
Of course, because of the price, most people buy it in one piece, which is about four pounds per pot.
Among those buying strawberries was Grandma Li's son, Zhang Peng.
Grandma Li can be considered a loyal customer of Lin Anshu's family.
Ever since she started selling wild vegetables, I've come to buy them from time to time.
Because their daughter-in-law, Sun Yue, is pregnant, she has become quite picky about food since the beginning of her pregnancy.
But she really liked the vegetables she bought from Lin Anshu's house.
Therefore, Grandma Li and her son Zhang Peng would go to Lin Anshu's house to buy groceries from time to time.
Since Zhang Peng started selling vegetables in the group, buying vegetables has become his responsibility.
If it weren't for the fact that Lin Anshu's family wasn't temporarily not selling meat, fruit, or eggs, they would have loved to buy everything they ate from Lin Anshu's family.
Now, his daughter-in-law, Sun Yue, is more than four months pregnant, and her belly is showing.
She had an ultrasound done recently, and the doctor said she was carrying twins.
This news delighted Grandma Li and Zhang Peng.
Since it's twins, extra care needs to be taken with their nutrition.
Therefore, in the days that followed, they kept a close eye on Sun Yue.
She can eat or buy whatever she wants.
She buys whatever she wants.
She was in a bad mood, and it was all Zhang Peng's fault.
In short, her family took very good care of her.
Sure enough, when Zhang Peng saw that strawberries had appeared in Lin Anshu's vegetable-selling group, he placed an order without any hesitation.
I even ordered two items at once.
That is, eight pounds of strawberries.
Although it was quite expensive when you add it all up, it cost 376.
But he felt it was worth it!
His wife loves strawberries.
It's worth it because my wife likes it!
The moment Zhang Peng received the strawberries, he felt that he hadn't wasted his money.
The strawberries covered with plastic wrap looked bright red, moist and translucent, like bright red agate, and they looked delicious.
Zhang Peng weighed the strawberries he bought.
The strawberries, including the pot, weighed about four and a half pounds in total.
I must say, the portion size is quite generous; there's absolutely no shortage of ingredients.
After bringing the strawberries home, Zhang Peng immediately removed the plastic wrap, took out a dozen or so, rinsed them with water, and placed them on the table for his wife to eat when she returned.
I glanced at the time; it would be quite a while before my wife got off work.
