Chapter 215 Urgent!
Uncle Ye has been traveling around the village these days, so the children stayed at Ye Zhen's house to eat fruit, and his wife chatted and played mahjong with Grandma Ye and the others.
Dad Ye took Uncle Ye around and introduced the changes in Shanbei Village, saying that even people living in the village would be amazed, let alone Uncle Ye who was not at home for a whole year.
He then took Uncle Ye to look at the surrounding fields.
"What are you planting?" Uncle Ye asked as he squatted and stroked the plants on the edge of the field.
Father Ye replied casually: "Oh, this, this is the medicinal herb seedlings that Ye brought back. We have planted a lot of them in our village."
Dad Ye took Uncle Ye to the place in the village where potted flowers were planted.
During the New Year holidays, no one has time to rest. Everyone is working in the village anyway, and everyone is happy to go if they can earn more money.
Dad Ye took Uncle Ye and the others over there. The villagers were busy moving potted plants and digging flower seedlings. It seemed that the brightest colors of winter were gathered here, and the mountains and the ground were full of flowers of various colors.
Red, yellow, purple, white, green...
Uncle Ye looked at it in shock, pointed at the flowers and plants in front and asked:
"These are all grown by our own villagers..." He was so surprised that he was speechless.
Father Ye took over the conversation, "These have all been reserved. We have grown so many things in our village! We don't have to worry about selling them. Business is just right during the Chinese New Year."
Didn’t you see that everyone would rather work than bragging, chatting, smoking and drinking as usual?
When an acquaintance saw him and greeted Uncle Ye, Uncle Ye nodded blankly and looked at the daughter of his third son with sharp eyes.
Ye Yuan is very busy now. She has seen a lot outside and knows that live streaming sales platforms are very popular now.
I learned a few tricks from Ye Ma and her friends' live broadcast account, and I gained some experience on the Internet. I started live broadcasting in full swing. The village chief said that I would get a commission for every extra order.
My two children are taken care of by my grandparents, and we don’t even go out to chat during the New Year. Nothing is more joyful than making money!
Thanks to the fact that express delivery services remain open during the Chinese New Year, the orders in the live broadcast room were sold out in seconds. I haven’t had a break today and I’m busy with other villagers who are also trying to make money!
When Uncle Ye came, he just nodded from a distance and continued to indulge in live streaming and selling goods.
Uncle Ye had only been watching for half a day, and all the flower pots and fruit plants in the other area were sold out!
Influenced by this atmosphere, Uncle Ye was even more emotional and wanted to follow the live broadcast and shout “666”!
Dad Ye smiled and continued to take Uncle Ye to other places.
I continued to introduce to him that the fields were currently used to grow strawberry seedlings. Others were already putting their strawberries on the market, but their Shanbei Village was different from others and focused on growing natural open-air off-season strawberries.
The price is higher.
Uncle Ye watched as large tracts of fields were covered with small green seedlings, lush and green. Many people were carefully tending to the fields, weeding and applying fertilizers.
Seeing Uncle Ye's surprised expression, Dad Ye couldn't help but feel proud.
"How is it? Our village has changed a lot, right?"
Uncle Ye nodded, "Indeed, I only heard from the third brother that the village made money by growing strawberries, but I didn't take it seriously. He helped me grow two acres of land and sent me money a few days ago, but I didn't care much."
Now look at it, this is quite a big scale!
The third brother had not yet looked at the money he had transferred to him. At that time, the factory was distributing salaries and bonuses to employees, so he asked Uncle Ye to transfer the money to a separate card. The factory was busy at the end of the year and he forgot about it. The bank did not even send a text message! !
Uncle Ye was itching to find out more and wanted to continue asking about the situation.
A voice interrupted the question.
"Haizi, now is the perfect time. Several village chiefs from next door are here to wish you a happy new year." Village Chief Ye waved his arm and greeted them from afar.
As the group walked in, Village Chief Ye introduced them to everyone with a smile. They shook hands, greeted each other and said a few auspicious words. Then a group of people followed them to the Ye family.
"Meizi, there are guests." Father Ye brought people in.
Grandma Ye served tea enthusiastically, brought out chairs, and asked little brother Ye to have people set off firecrackers.
"Crackle!" The sound of firecrackers rang out.
Qiaoxi Village next door put down several boxes of milk and nut snack gift boxes and expressed gratitude:
"Your family's leaves have helped several of our villages a lot. They have planted all the seeds and medicinal herb seedlings for us. Next year, the village will rely on these to become rich!"
He was obviously very happy. His face turned red with excitement when he talked about growing medicinal herbs, and he kept thanking Ye's father.
"Where's Ye Zi? Uncle must give you a big red envelope today!" The village chief of Qiaoxi Village grinned, took out a red envelope from his pocket and was about to look for someone.
As soon as these words were spoken, several village chiefs put down their gift boxes and prepared to give red envelopes. It was obvious that this had been discussed long ago.
Even the village chief Ye is no exception. He brought people here specially today. Who of them didn’t come here to express his sincere gratitude?
The village chief of Qiaoxi Village is older than Uncle Ye, so it is true that he can be called uncle, but it is a pity that Ye Zhen is not at home now.
Father Ye repeated his excuse again, and all the village heads present felt very sorry.
"It's okay. You can keep this red envelope and give it to Ye Zi later."
The head of Qiaoxi Village was very stubborn. He stuffed the red envelope directly into Ye's father's pocket. Without waiting for Ye's father to refuse, he looked at him:
"This is what I gave to my niece. You are not allowed to push it back. Otherwise, next year, if we want to plant other things, we won't be able to find a backdoor to plant the good stuff first!"
These words made Ye's father stop his hand that was about to push back. Thinking about Ye's instructions before she left, he went to the room and got a small bottle of health wine.
There are not many, all are 300 ml glass bottles with golden wine inside. They are all wines that Ye Zhen made using some spiritual medicines and ordinary medicinal herbs he grew himself.
Drinking it is good for the health of the elderly, it can improve sleep quality, reduce vascular sclerosis, and nourish the body.
Each village chief was given a bottle, and since they had received red envelopes, they gave it back from other places.
Several village heads accepted it with smiles on their faces. They were all heavy smokers and alcoholics, so who would be willing to give it up?
With so many people coming to pay New Year’s greetings, they naturally had to stay for dinner, so Mother Ye simply called Uncle Ye’s family over and set up two tables.
Uncle Ye and Ye Ying kept all their thoughts to themselves. After eating and drinking, they dispersed and went home.
Ye Ying couldn't hold back and asked directly, "Second brother, can this kind of land really make so much money?"
She also wants to come back to farm!!
Ye Ying saw it all. Since she returned to her parents' home, many people came to her house with gifts to wish her a happy new year. There was a constant stream of people coming, both from her own village and from other villages.
Don’t you see that the gifts we received are almost filling up a small room?
Father Ye waved his hand modestly: "It's okay, it's okay."
Uncle Ye smiled and continued, "It's true that we make a lot of money. Big brother doesn't know that our strawberries are famous. I've planted your little piece of land for you. I'll take you to see it later."
Then he suggested, "You said that the garment factory hasn't made much money in recent years. Why don't you go back to live in the village? We have everything in the village now, and the air quality is good."
Uncle Ye wanted to do it, but his son and daughter-in-law had to go to work and there was no one to take care of his grandchildren, so he finally refused.
Uncle Ye stopped trying to persuade her. Ye Ying poked her husband and asked, "Brother, can I grow it?"
"Yes, but where do you plant it?" asked Ye's father.
Ye Ying was instantly like a popped balloon. She lived in the city, her household registration had been moved away, and she didn’t even have a piece of land to farm!
In the end, he still didn't give up, so he asked Ye's father for some strawberry seedlings, and dug up a large cherry seedling cultivated by Ye Zhen, thinking that he could plant it on his own balcony and save some money.
The days passed one by one, and it was already March, and there was still no news from Ye Zhen.
Dad Ye received another call from Wang Li.
