Yan Fugui's obsessive-compulsive tendencies are about to explode, and Zheng Ya directly waves his hand to deliver a time-based superpower to accelerate his ideological awareness and guide his learning.
Yan Fugui was deeply moved, realizing the significance of Zheng Ya's establishment of the planting base in benefiting the country and its people, leading the development of planting and environmental protection across the country and even the world, and benefiting future generations. He was filled with admiration.
When faced with fame and fortune, selfishness seems utterly worthless.
If he didn't even have this much awareness, then he wouldn't be Yan Fugui. He immediately said with shame, "Everyone, please be quiet. Our planting base sells new vegetables, and we sell them according to market evaluations."
There's no point in arguing here. Let's all line up at the main entrance of the planting base to witness our new vegetable varieties before we talk about this. Everyone, please go have fun; if you fall behind in line..."
"Damn it, all the cunning thieves have run away! Hurry up and grab a spot!" The neighbors turned and ran in a frenzy.
Yan Fugui turned to Zheng Ya and said, "Little Zheng, I was narrow-minded before, and I was obsessed with money. I will definitely correct myself in the future!"
"Okay, go ahead and take charge of the cashier duties for the first batch of vegetables sold at our planting base." Zheng Ya waved her hand with a smile to shoo him away, and without waiting for Yan Fugui's reply, turned and went into the house.
Yan Fugui breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Xiao Zheng had accepted him. That was great.
When Zheng Ya returned to the central garden of the courtyard house, Xu Qi and Fu Qingyao were already up: "We haven't even spread the news about selling vegetables yet, how come the neighbors all know?"
"Haha, that's irrelevant."
"Let's take breakfast to the third-floor balcony and eat it while we watch our planting base sell the new vegetables," Zheng Ya thought for a moment, and breakfast was prepared in the supernatural space.
Then place it on the kitchen cutting board, where it steams with a rich aroma.
Century egg and beef congee, spiced braised peanuts, and braised pork belly with preserved mustard greens—Zheng Ya went into the kitchen, picked up the dishes, and left.
Xu Qi and Fu Qingyao smelled a different aroma from the usual breakfast and their mouths watered: "Wow, did our husband make something delicious again today?"
"You little rascal, you're quite filial. This is my favorite food." Fu Qingyao became obsessed with his cooking, looking forward to a different flavor every day. She never got tired of eating it and was still thinking about the delicious food she had a few days ago.
Zheng Ya accepted their praise with a smile, and greeted his master and mistress as they went up to the third floor for breakfast: "I made some Cantonese food today, come and have a taste!"
"Hehe, we're in for a treat today!" Xu Qi, like a little glutton, smelled the delicious aroma and served breakfast to her master and mistress before starting to eat her own, thoroughly enjoying herself.
Fu Qingyao had already devoured the food in no time, and Zheng Ya watched with amusement, finding it a truly heartwarming scene.
Old Sun was displeased after tasting the preserved egg and beef congee: "You brat, you have whole Kobe beef, what a waste!"
"Master, what is Kobe beef?" Xu Qi really didn't know what grades of beef were, and neither did Fu Qingyao, so she pricked up her ears to listen.
Old Sun said with a pained expression, "I don't know the specifics, but I do know that raising Kobe beef is very expensive."
The cost of feeding a cow is comparable to, or even more than, the daily expenses of a wealthy landlord.
You can think of it as beef fed with gold…
"What? Kobe beef is really that luxurious?" Fu Qingyao was stunned, completely unaware of the existence of Kobe beef.
Everyone thought it was just beef.
At most, it's just delicate, smooth, and refreshing in taste.
Little did I know that the way Kobe beef is raised is so expensive.
Zheng Ya laughed and said, "Our family values nutritious food and doesn't care about the price of ingredients."
These are all spoils of war that my master collected from Kou Island. Eat as much as you like; our family won't lack for this in the future..."
"Cough cough, is this all gold?" Old Master Sun felt a little distressed, but he was also relieved. After all, his closed-door disciple had a good martial arts master protecting him.
At present, Yan Fugui is presiding over the sale of vegetables at the main entrance of the planting base: "Everyone, please line up properly, don't rush or push."
There are quite a few of you here, about two or three hundred people.
But don't worry, everyone. Although our planting base is only selling the first batch of vegetables, it still weighs more than 10,000 jin (5,000 kg), which is just the weight of one type of vegetable.
Today we are selling cabbage, radish, scallions and lettuce, all priced at three cents per pound.
"Jiecheng, could you send a few people to carry the vegetables upstairs so everyone can see what they're made of?"
"Alright, let's go, guys!" Yan Jiecheng led the team out, carrying out four large baskets of vegetables, which emitted a tempting aroma.
They say you can tell a woman's character by her scent, but today that's completely changed; you can tell a vegetable's character by its scent.
Qin Huairu got up very early this morning. After sweeping the streets at the neighborhood office, she rushed to the front of the planting base and lined up first. She raised her hand and said, "I'm buying vegetables, 100 jin of each kind, no, 300 jin of each kind..."
"Qin Huairu, what are you trying to do?" The person at the back of the line was indignant; this couldn't be allowed to start.
Each person sells 300 jin of each type of vegetable, and less than 100 people sell out all the vegetables in the planting base, leaving everyone else to work for nothing.
Even a fool would know that such fragrant vegetables could easily double their profit by simply taking them to the market and reselling them.
Even with supervision from the cooperative's leaders, they cannot arbitrarily set vegetable prices and disrupt the market.
But these vegetables are of high quality!
It's unreasonable to sell high-quality vegetables at the same price as ordinary vegetables.
Prices are bound to rise; that's all money involved.
Unable to defy public anger, Qin Huairu reluctantly said, "Then, then I'll just buy a hundred catties of each..."
"Qin Huairu, this is the first time our planting base has sold vegetables. The aim is to benefit our neighbors and ensure that every household can buy vegetables."
Therefore, each person is limited to purchasing fifty catties, with no restrictions on the type of product. Yan Fugui had already planned ahead; since he couldn't be stingy and try to take advantage of others, he would make a name for himself.
To gain fame, one must gain everyone's recognition in order to have a good reputation.
Then the right path is for the neighbors in Huiji Street.
Qin Huairu trembled with anger: "Fifty catties it is, but I want Old Madam Long's share. Is that too much to ask?"
"You, never mind, it's because Old Lady Long hasn't been dealt with by the neighborhood committee yet."
And since you've been taking care of Grandma Long's daily needs, you can buy what's rightfully hers.
"A total of 100 jin, what vegetables do you want?" Yan Fugui was too lazy to argue with her; it wasn't appropriate to quarrel with the first customer on the first day.
Harmony brings wealth; you're selling to anyone anyway.
Qin Huairu looked left and right, and all four kinds of vegetables were top-quality!
Large white radishes, four or five pounds each.
A Chinese cabbage weighs seventeen or eighteen pounds.
The scallions, five or six stalks each, have grown into a bunch.
The lettuce was even more amazing, with a fluffy head reaching a diameter of thirty centimeters.
The key is that they all exude an enticing aroma, making it hard for Qin Huairu to choose: "Oh dear, this lettuce can be served as a side dish without even being stir-fried."
Chinese cabbage and radish can be eaten as vegetables, and adding a little scallion to stir-fries makes them top-notch natural seasonings that enhance the aroma and color!
I want them all…
"Qin Huairu, hurry up and choose, what are you dawdling for?" The person at the back of the line was annoyed.
The aroma alone is making my stomach rumble, and you're still dawdling over there, are you trying to starve me to death?
