Over the next few days, the rain finally stopped completely.
After a long-awaited spring rain, the cherry orchard in Nanshan Village began to produce fruit one after another.
It was a sunny day today, and Zhao Xiaoyang spent most of the day helping pick cherries in his uncle's orchard.
Baskets of cherries piled next to the foam boxes looked like a small mountain.
But this is less than one-tenth of the total. Most of the hundreds of cherry trees planted by grandpa are still bearing fruit!
The situation was similar with several nearby shops. Several fruit vendors were shouting inside and directing small trucks to drive out.
Uncle Zhao Yuanfang was standing by, handing cigarettes to the fruit vendor and chatting with him.
Zhao Xiaoyang did not participate. He leaned against a big cherry tree, opened the thermos, and took a sip happily.
call!
A cool breath filled my lungs, immediately diluting the heat from the sweat.
"Brother, this price is not low anymore. I'm not trying to lower it on purpose!"
The fruit vendor blew out a puff of smoke and jokingly raised his brows, "Why don't you reconsider it? There are a few more shops over there waiting for me to buy their products!"
this……
Zhao Yuanfang frowned, but Aunt Sanfeng came up to him with a big smile on her face: "Brother, wait a minute, this is not the first time you've come to our house to pick fruits!"
"You can see that the fruit on our trees is indeed better than other trees, right? You're only offering fifteen yuan for a pound. Isn't that too low?"
"oh?"
Hearing this, the fruit vendor laughed and pointed at the cherry tree across from Ah Hua's house: "Sister, look at what you're saying? Is it because we're old friends that I came to your house first to pick the fruits?"
"Look at the one across the street. Their piece of fruit is pretty big, isn't it?"
"Besides, business is not good this year..."
The fruit vendor talked a lot, from market conditions to the international situation, and even the social pressure of rising housing prices.
Finally, Zhao Yuanfang frowned and said, "How about this, 21 kilograms, the same as in previous years!"
"This is really different. Previous years are previous years, and this year is this year. Let's keep it one thing at a time!"
"Brother, fifteen yuan a pound is really the lowest price. If you promise me that you can take it away and pay the bill right away, you should also understand the difficulties we face in doing business."
Hearing this, Zhao Yuanfang shook his head firmly.
"I know that, but those smaller fruits before were only 15 yuan per pound, and these fruits of mine are really worth more than that!"
"A few days ago, I sold over 100 kilograms, and they charged me 25 yuan per kilogram. If you don't believe me, I'll show you the transfer records."
Chi...
The fruit vendor laughed and said, "Brother, compared to the thousands or tens of thousands of kilograms we sell, a couple of hundred kilograms is just a drop in the bucket. How can it be the same?"
"Alright, alright, I'll raise the price a bit, sixteen dollars and a half a pound, how about that?"
"Just twenty!"
"Okay, you should give in a little, let's make it seventeen!"
"Twenty is twenty, I won't give up a penny!"
The fruit vendor dropped his cigarette butt and glanced at Zhao Yuanfang. "Brother, I won't say anything more. Eighteen per pound, it really can't be any higher."
"If you haven't thought it through, I'll go look elsewhere. But there are only a few trucks left today. I've already made the arrangements with them, so you'll have to reschedule your visit."
"Cherries are so delicious, they're always on sale for the same price. You know what I mean, brother!"
As he spoke, the fruit vendor pretended to walk to the side and waved to Liu Yuejin who was busy over there.
"Hey, Lao Liu, come here!"
Liu Yuejin was stunned for a moment, then after thinking about it, he walked over and started chatting with the fruit vendor, while at the same time he kept glancing at Zhao Yuanfang.
We are all from the same village, so it is common to "exchange ideas" with fruit vendors, and we understand what is going on.
These fruit vendors are more cunning than each other, and these veteran fruit farmers are not stupid either, and they will not easily sabotage each other.
As for the fruit vendor, he was also looking at Zhao Yuanfang.
In fact, how could it be possible that these cunning guys had not investigated the growth of Nanshan Village?
The trees on Zhao Yuanfang and Liu Yuejin's sides are the best, and Zhao Xiaoyang has given Zhao Yuanfang special treatment. There are as many as seventy or eighty best-growing trees on his side, which is incomparable to Liu Yuejin's side.
At this moment, I just want to lower the price.
"Look at you, you're such a stubborn person! There's no price for such good fruit. When the old man was around, how could this kid be so arrogant?"
Liu Sanfeng was biting Zhao Yuanfang's ear.
"Two years ago, you couldn't even negotiate a price, but then the old man showed up and sold out right away!"
"Okay, okay, can you please stop talking about that?"
Zhao Yuanfang also smoked silently. "Is it because I don't want to sell it? The old man happened to have a special situation. He was interviewed by many reporters. Many people wanted to buy from him online. Do you think he is selling it casually?"
"Besides, our village's brand has become popular since then. We've been selling it for 20 yuan for two years. It used to sell for 7 or 8 yuan per pound. Why didn't you say anything?"
"You, you, you! You are still so stubborn. I really admire you!" Liu Sanfeng's face turned red, and she was very angry.
She turned to look at Zhao Xiaoyang, lowered her voice and waved her hand, saying, "Xiaoyang, come quickly and persuade your uncle to sell these big fruits first!"
"If you insist on holding on to 20, and you can't sell it, won't the price drop in two days?"
Ahem…
Although Liu Sanfeng spoke in a low voice, the fruit vendor, who pricked up his ears, still heard it.
Then he turned around and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, have you thought about it? If it doesn't work, I'm really leaving!"
Zhao Yuanfang finally began to waver.
