Chapter 194: I can’t say I didn’t lose money, I can only say I made a lot of money
The contract was written on the spot.
It was written in the form of a big-character poster with the Third Master's calligraphy in a flamboyant style. The content was actually simple, just the simplest sales agreement.
After both parties signed and Ye Qing paid the money, the deal was completely completed.
Ye Qing walked to the front and put the briefcase on the table.
When the briefcase was opened, it was full of red banknotes, which made everyone jealous.
"Ajun's brother-in-law is amazing."
"It's so easy to come up with so much money at such a young age."
"Among the young people on Longwei Island, there probably isn't another one like him."
Everyone was amazed.
There were all kinds of nice words, and Ye Qing was very happy to hear them.
Who doesn’t like to hear good words?
He was somewhat elated.
The third master picked up the registration list and called out, "Jianjun, come here. Thirty-five mango trees and thirteen lychee trees, a total of 7,850 yuan."
Ye Qing didn't have any change, so he simply gave 7,900 yuan.
Jianjun shouted, "Hey, that's too much."
"I...I don't have any change on me. Village chief, does the village committee have any? Please lend it to me first."
The third master was about to get the change.
Ye Qing stopped him and said, "Use the extra few dozen yuan to buy some water."
"Everyone was busy for half the afternoon."
"Next."
Jianjun looked at the third master, who smiled and nodded.
Next.
The third master called out names, Ye Qing distributed money, and everyone took the money and signed the contract.
One after another.
An hour later, Ye Qing had only more than 80,000 left of the 800,000 he had taken. He also harvested nearly 5,000 fruit trees, all of which will bear fruit next year.
The kumquat trees will be mature and ready for sale in a month. If all of them can be sold, Ye Qing can’t say he has made a loss, he can only say he has made a huge profit!
You should know that it takes at least three years for a mango tree to bear fruit after being grafted, and it takes even longer for a seedling to grow.
The situation of lychee trees is even more exaggerated. It basically takes ten to fifteen years for them to bloom and bear fruit. If they are really planted from seeds, if Ye Qing wants to eat the first lychee, his children will probably be too old to help with cooking.
Other people's lychee trees may not bloom and reach their peak production period until twenty years later.
Although the fruiting cycle is long, the lychee tree can survive.
A tree that can live for hundreds of years means it can generate profits for many years.
It can be passed directly to the next generation.
Now.
Ye Qing harvested old tree species. Some of the lychee trees were already thirty or forty years old. In terms of age, they were in their prime.
The lychees harvested every year are big, sweet and juicy. The villagers' hearts bleed as they watch them all rot in the fields.
However, lychees have a short shelf life and are extremely difficult to transport.
The poet once praised it in poetry, saying that there is no more precious fruit in the world, with jade-like skin covered with crimson gauze, a natural and delicious taste, but it is a pity that it was born in the end of the world.
I'm talking about lychees.
The people of Longwei Island have a treasure mountain but cannot find the real treasure, which really proves the saying "Lanshou Xianggu".
Now.
Not only can they get rid of this sweet yet heavy burden, but they can also exchange it for a windfall.
All the villagers who received the money were delighted.
The other villagers who came to watch the fun were all very envious, but it was a pity that they did not plant any fruit trees at the foot of the mountain.
"Village Chief, I suggest we celebrate."
"Let's just set up the table."
"I need to have a few drinks with Jun and his brother-in-law."
"No matter what, we have to treat brother-in-law Ajun well."
"village head……"
The Third Master thought about it, and seeing that everyone was indeed so kind, he waved his hand and shouted, "Yes, we should treat them well."
"Our village hasn't been lively for a long time."
"Notify Changcai and ask him to come back from town and arrange the banquet."
Everyone responded loudly.
Ye Qing was watching in confusion, the people of Longwei Island were just like that, hospitable and loved to celebrate.
This is also because the weather is not good. Fishing at sea depends on the weather, but God often makes it windy and rainy. In order to pray for smooth fishing at sea, the villagers will hold various prayer ceremonies.
Tables and chairs were set up directly in the open space of the village committee, and Ye Qing was pulled to sit in the first seat.
The banquet arrived soon.
There were all kinds of chicken, duck, fish and meat. Changcai opened a restaurant in the town and brought a sheep, which he roasted on the spot. The villagers sang and danced around the bonfire, and it was very lively.
At first, Ye Qing was still a little uncomfortable. He had been studying in college for a few years and had not participated in the island's traditional activities for a long time.
But soon, he was infected by the atmosphere and joined in.
Even he, a local, is like this. What would happen if foreign tourists saw this?
It’s going to be fun.
Promotion.
We must find a way to promote it!
The villagers of Beicun kept looking for him to toast.
Ye Qing never refuses anyone who comes.
One cup after another.
Seeing how heartily he drank, everyone praised him highly. A few drunkards even challenged him to a drinking contest, but he soon drank them all down under the table.
Ye Qing felt bored and asked Ye Lan to go home and call his little niece over.
As soon as Zhang Xiaoyu arrived, she went straight to Ye Qing.
She likes eating crabs the most. She pointed at the red claw crabs on the table and shouted, "Uncle, I want to eat crab legs."
Ye Qing immediately helped her break the crab legs, pushed out the crab meat, and put it to Zhang Xiaoyu's mouth, saying with a smile: "Princess, please eat the crab legs."
Ye Lan looked at it and shook her head, muttering, "Just spoil her."
Ye Qing laughed heartily and said, "With only this little niece, who else should I spoil if not her?"
Ye Lan's eyes lit up: "What if I have more children?"
Before Ye Qing could say anything, Zhang Jun hurriedly shouted, "Alan, don't scare me."
Ye Qing burst out laughing.
Ye Lan was so angry that she kicked Zhang Jun far away, which made the other villagers laugh. Everyone knew what the situation was like at Zhang Jun's home.
We played and had fun until late at night.
Zhang Xiaoyu was sleepy and was still chewing. Her eyes were closed and she fell asleep with her little head resting on Ye Qing's arm.
Ye Qing called her up.
Zhang Xiaoyu opened her eyes dazedly, swallowed the food in her mouth, and then opened her mouth again: "Uncle, ah..."
This is something to eat.
Ye Qing couldn't stop laughing, he was really a little foodie.
Ye Lan quickly carried her away.
Everyone ate and drank until late at night. Ye Qing found Changcai, secretly took the money for the banquet, and then went back to sleep.
It was not until the Third Master went to find Changcai that he learned about this.
He decided to contact the villagers who sold the fruit trees overnight and asked them to help transplant the fruit trees. They had experience in this area and could better ensure the survival rate of the transplanted fruit trees.
The villagers naturally agreed immediately.
The weather is cool these days, which is perfect for transplanting.
…
When I woke up, it was still past six in the morning.
It was just dawn.
Ye Qing checked the progress of the dragon ball's energy and found that it had reached 40%.
The progress is not slow.
His brother-in-law and his family were still sleeping, so he didn't disturb them. Instead, he rode his electric bike back to Nancun.
Bought this fruit tree.
It doesn't mean it's over, in fact it's just the beginning, transplanting is the big trouble.
He planned to go to the village to ask for help.
Village committee.
Li Fu looked at Ye Qing who came hurriedly and said, "You are here to transplant the fruit trees, right?"
Ye Qing was stunned: "Grandpa, how did you know?"
Li Fu said, "The Beicun village chief contacted me, and I called for help through the loudspeaker."
"but."
"Transplanting fruit trees is not that simple."
"I have already arranged for someone to prepare the nutrient soil."
"You still have to contact the crane and stuff."
Ye Qing nodded.
He had just passed through the town and had already made contact. Fortunately, Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, so the villagers were all at home and did not go out to sea. Otherwise, with no one to help, this matter would have been delayed for a long time.
The villagers had breakfast.
Under Li Fu's loudspeaker, every household drove out in their cars, mostly small tricycles, and led by Ye Qing, they headed straight for Beicun in a mighty procession.
When he arrived at the central town, Ye Qing also found a lot of large trucks.
There was a lot of noise.
Along the way, many passers-by stopped to watch.
Chen Hu and Wang Jie also followed, and the two turned into cameramen. Wang Jie took pictures with a sports camera, and Chen Hu controlled the drone.
Looking at the footage captured by the drone, Chen Hu sighed in admiration, "It feels like the silent island has suddenly come alive."
