Chapter 297: The first time I saw such a rush to buy
After weighing, Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen brought a total of 10,400 kilograms of oyster mushrooms this time.
After all, there were a lot of oyster mushrooms, so some of them were carried to the warehouse in the backyard by Lin Ergu for temporary storage, and some were put for sale in the business hall.
I have to say that Zhou Ergu is very dedicated. In order to let more people know about the deliciousness of oyster mushrooms, she specially asked Zhou Yuan to bring Shang Ruoting back to her home and cooked a few dishes for people to taste.
After all, oyster mushrooms are a fresh food for the people here, and she set the selling price at 30 cents per pound. With such a high price, she must let people know how delicious it is.
Sure enough, after customers tasted the deliciousness of oyster mushrooms, Nanjie Grocery Store ushered in a buying boom.
At first, only a few people bought the products after tasting the samples. Later, word spread and more and more people came to buy the products.
The line of customers stretched from the South Street Grocery Store all the way to the main door.
Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen were not in a hurry to leave. One reason was that Zhou Ergu did not give them the bill, but the most important thing was that they also wanted to see how the oyster mushrooms were selling.
I watched the sales staff carry basket after basket of oyster mushrooms back from the backyard. By three o'clock in the afternoon, most of the 10,400 oyster mushrooms had been sold.
That’s not all, more and more people are queuing outside to buy.
Zhou Ergu has been working at the South Street Grocery Store for more than ten years, and this is the first time she has seen such a shopping spree. Her originally serious face is no longer tense, and the corners of her lips unconsciously rise.
Zhou Yuan, who had been with her all the time, seemed very excited at the moment. She thought that she had helped her second aunt a lot and had long forgotten that she came here today for a blind date.
And the blind date partner, perhaps because Zhou Yuan automatically ignored him, had quietly left at some point.
Seeing this, Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen already had an idea of the sales situation of oyster mushrooms. As it was getting late, they planned to rush back to Sihe Village.
"Director Zhou, it seems the oyster mushrooms are selling well. That puts our minds at ease. It's getting late, so we plan to go back early."
Zhou Ergu finally turned her gaze away from the sales floor and smiled at the two of them. "Okay, we'll go sign the contract and settle the bill for today's oyster mushrooms."
Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen followed Zhou Ergu to the office. At this time, the contracts were all handwritten. Zhou Ergu picked up a pen and wrote quickly.
The general content was: Nanjie Food Store would purchase Shang Ruoting's oyster mushrooms at 1.8 cents per jin. Once the mushrooms were mature, they would pick up 20,000 jin daily. If there were any changes, both parties would negotiate.
After both parties signed, Zhou Ergu called the accountant and settled the payment for today's 10,400 kilograms of oyster mushrooms with Shang Ruoting.
At the same time, the two parties reached an agreement that Nanjie Food Store will send a vehicle to transport the remaining oyster mushrooms in Shang Ruoting's home back in one go tomorrow.
In other words, their cooperation this time will end tomorrow. The next time will have to wait until the second batch of oyster mushrooms are cultivated. Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen will come here to notify them.
The couple took 1,872 yuan in cash and excitedly drove the tractor back to Sihe Village.
As the sun was setting, two men were driving a tractor through Fengxian County. When they passed by a shop on the street, they saw two men tying a yellow dog with a rope and preparing to hang it from a tree.
The yellow dog let out a scream and struggled with its limbs.
A man yelled, "Don't move, or you'll die quickly."
Seeing that the two men had already wrapped the rope around the tree branch, Shang Ruoting quickly asked Tan Chen to stop the tractor.
Tan Chen was concentrating on driving and didn't pay attention to what was happening on the roadside. Seeing his wife's anxious look, he stepped on the brakes.
Shang Ruoting quickly jumped to the ground and ran towards the crooked tree.
“Stop… stop…”
The two men looked at the female comrade running towards them with some confusion, and the movements of their hands naturally stopped.
The yellow dog seemed to feel Shang Ruoting's kindness, and looked at her with pitiful eyes, as if he saw a glimmer of hope of life.
Shang Ruoting politely said to the two men, "Comrade, can you please not kill this dog?"
Only then did the two realize that the female comrade was there to rescue the yellow dog.
"We also paid for this dog. You said you don't want to kill it, so why not?"
When Shang Ruoting saw the pitiful look in the yellow dog's eyes, she secretly vowed in her heart that she must save it.
"This dog looks a bit like my lost dog, Dahuang. Since you bought it, can you sell it to me?"
She knew that once the other party said he bought the dog, it would be impossible for him to give it to her in just a few words, so she might as well show some sincerity.
