Chapter 49: Co-planting
Uncle Ye nervously grabbed the hem of his clothes and walked into Ye Zhen's house with a nervous and excited mood.
"Second brother, did you really sell it for so much money?"
Father Ye didn't say it directly. He called Uncle Ye and his wife to the bayberry tree and pointed at the bayberries on the tree:
"This bayberry is right in front of you. Tell me if it's worth the price!"
"If it weren't for growing strawberry seedlings, the big strawberries in the backyard might be sold at a higher price."
Uncle Ye has never seen this scene before.
Seeing that Uncle Ye looked dazed, Dad Ye took him to see the strawberry seedlings that Ye Zhen was cultivating in the backyard.
The seedlings were sturdy, with large, green leaves, much larger than the strawberry plants grown in greenhouses on the market. The several large strawberry mother plants that Ye Zhen brought back shocked Ye Xiaoshu and his wife.
"This is too big. Can a strawberry grow into a tree?" Uncle Ye muttered to himself, and asked in disbelief:
“Is this a grafted strawberry?”
Ye Zhen picked two spiritual berries and handed them to his uncle and his wife. The red fruits were the size of a palm and had a strong fragrance. He was reluctant to take a bite.
"Uncle, this strawberry is a new native variety that is not available on the market. If we seize the market first, it will definitely be a big business opportunity."
Ye Zhen didn't explain it in detail, but the real thing was in front of her. It might not look like her mother plant Ling Strawberry, but the strawberry seedlings were definitely better than other varieties on the market.
Uncle Ye originally wanted to curry favor with someone powerful, and after seeing the real thing in front of him and eating the bayberries picked by Ye's father, he became even more determined.
You must invest money to jointly grow strawberries!
Ye Zhen didn't know what Dad Ye and Uncle Ye were planning to do next. She was heading to the county now. The strawberry seeds and wolfberry seedlings had arrived as well!
Recently, customers in all the fresh fruit and vegetable groups have been urging Ye Zhen to put his products on the shelves. As soon as you open it, you will see countless red messages with the amount of 999 added.
The Dragon Boat Festival is still a few days away, and many fruit trees are in bloom or bearing fruit. In order to save spiritual energy, Ye Zhen concentrates the vitality and spiritual energy that are replenished through cultivation at night in the main courtyard, and he doesn't care about the back mountain at all.
The reason is that her cultivation is not up to par. She has only been back for a few days and her spiritual energy is not enough to heal that much.
So I have to apologize to the customer, but she has left some plums and bayberries, and the price is not cheap, so if you want, please buy them.
Ever since she knew that the fruits at home were more valuable, Ye's mother treasured them very much and no longer disdained the trees that did not bear fruit. She went to the chicken coop and duck pen every day to collect chicken and duck excrement so that the fruit trees could absorb more and bear more fruit next year.
…………
After parking the car outside the express station, Ye Zhen carried down a basket of plums and a basket of bayberries, each weighing about sixty to seventy kilograms.
There was only one person in the station, staring at the computer. Ye Zhen was carrying a basket in each hand, and holding nearly 200 kilograms of things in his hands like two toys.
"Boss, send express delivery, fresh food express delivery."
After thinking about it, he took pictures of the plums and bayberries he brought with him with a "click".
Ye Zhen didn't even look at how many people in the group placed orders, he just sent a message: A small amount of plums and bayberries, about 60 to 70 kilograms each, first come first served, new products at a new price.
As soon as these words came out, the group exploded.
The trial price is generally not cheap. Some people are quick to log into the mini program directly, see that it is only over 100 yuan per kilogram, and place an order immediately.
After placing the order, I was surprised to find that fruits that cost more than a hundred yuan became cheaper.
They became arrogant and pocketed all the little salary they earned from work.
Compared with strawberries and cherries, the prices of plums and bayberries are now pitifully low.
I don’t blame the fruit for being expensive, I just hate that I’m not rich.
Woohoo~
For a while, the phone kept ringing.
When I looked at the group chat, I saw that there were indeed quite a few rich people.
[Boss, I have 5 pounds of plums]
[5 jin of bayberry, the address is...]
[Boss, I want 10 kilograms. My family loves it! The address and contact information are...
[Boss, why aren't there any mushrooms or bamboo shoots yet? My family is looking forward to it every day!]
[Yes, yes, boss, your food is really great, but it’s a bit expensive. There are many people in my family, and a meal can cost a hundred or eighty yuan.]
Some people who had never bought fruit before didn't know how to rush to buy, but old customers from far away Jincheng placed orders in large numbers.
Ye Zhen thought that most of the fruits he brought today had been bought, so he started typing:
"The fruit is sold out, no need to place an order. New fruits and vegetables will be available later. Please be patient."
[No way! This is too fast! I haven’t grabbed it yet!]
[Hahaha, I bought the last order!]
[Boss, please give me more next time. This little amount is not enough to share.]
…………
For a while, those who didn’t get one in the group were upset, while those who got one were satisfied.
They don’t feel sad after spending hundreds of dollars, they just like to see others wailing because they didn’t buy the product.
Ye Zhen no longer replied and helped the courier boy distribute the fruits.
The courier boy saw Ye Zhen carrying two baskets of fruits and thought it was just a courier, but he knew that they were delivered immediately.
"Your fruits are fresh. Plums and bayberries are easily damaged, especially bayberries. They have to be packed in special bubble boxes, and the foam boxes must be transported refrigerated. If not, the fruits may not be in good condition!" He was telling the truth, and it was definitely not for the sake of making a little extra money.
"Although it's May, it's still quite hot here. If you're sending it across provinces, I recommend ice transportation."
Ye Zhen also sighed, so she didn't want to sell things individually anymore, especially after finding a fixed buyer.
But what can she do? People are so enthusiastic that she is too embarrassed to refuse, after all, her first pot of gold was earned from them.
"It's okay, you can transport the ice!" In order to ensure the quality, it's okay to be a little more expensive.
Ye Zhen calls up the contact page:
"If I need to send a large number of items in the future, can I subscribe to a monthly package or can they pick me up at my door?"
The young man added the contact information. When he heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded hurriedly:
"Express delivery is well developed now. As long as the number of parcels exceeds a certain level and the area is not so remote that there are no roads, we can pick up the parcels at your door. Monthly subscription is also acceptable." It looks like this is a big order!
"I see your address is Shanbei Village. It's possible there, but you have to complete 100 orders. If you want a monthly subscription, it depends on how long you want to subscribe. Here's the price list. You can take a look."
Their express post station is well-known throughout the country and can deliver to towns and some mountain villages. The price is a bit higher, but the service and transportation are first-class.
Ye Zhen directly chose a one-year package, but it would start from three months later.
The courier guy was of course happy to get such a big business, and he actively packed the fruits.
Ye Zhen paid the money directly and took out the express delivery of strawberry seeds.
Wolfberry seedlings are transported in large quantities and are not shipped at the post station. After sending the fruits, Ye Zhen used the navigation and arrived at the destination according to the address.
Ye Zhen’s car definitely couldn’t hold so many things, so he just hired a car to take them home.
As long as the money is in place, nothing is a problem.
…
The wolfberry seedlings have arrived and are piled in Ye Zhen’s yard, looking quite spectacular.
Wolfberry seedlings cannot be kept for a long time and must be planted immediately. When Ye Zhen went to find Ye's father, he happened to be surrounded by a group of people.
"Ye Minghai, I'll follow you in planting strawberries. When will you start?"
This is the voice of neighbor Ye Xiaoying. Ever since she knew that the Ye family made tens of thousands of dollars selling plums and other things, she has been envious.
When I heard that Father Ye wanted everyone to follow her to grow strawberries, I couldn't wait a moment and came right away. I didn't expect that there were already so many people in Ye's house.
It seems that everyone is anxious.
Come to think of it, we are all equally poor, in the same place, and if there is an opportunity to make money and someone is willing to take you with him, you would be a fool not to seize the opportunity.
Some people in the village also said that Ye Minghai wanted to defraud people of their money, and that if they suffered losses they would not be able to get the money out, and it would be a waste of money.
In the past, whenever she heard these statements, she thought that the person had a problem with his brain. Since they had said so, if she wanted to do something, she should just follow them and they wouldn't force her.
Not to mention that Ye Minghai's family actually made something and made money.
But some people's stubborn thoughts are like beef tendons and cannot be changed.
I am afraid of this and that. I am afraid that I don’t have the experience to grow the crops. I am afraid that I can’t sell the crops because there is no market…
No wonder they were poor! She had no desire to fight. No matter what others said, she, Ye Xiaoying, just followed suit.
Father Ye stood in the middle and said loudly: "Don't worry, the seeds are a new variety with high yield and fast maturity. The village chief will hold a meeting to explain it to everyone in detail. Any problems will be discussed at the meeting." Don't come to him, he hasn't done the work yet, and he talks about it every day.
After persuading a group of people to leave, Dad Ye, feeling dry in the mouth, drank a ladle of water from the well in the yard.
Emma, the villagers are so enthusiastic that he can't stand it!
