Zhou Xiang's abnormal fruit tree bears three to four hundred kilograms of fruit at a time, and the branches are bent under the weight.
The fruits picked last time are still piled on the ground. I just picked 56 baskets, and half of them are still on the tree. After filling the remaining eight baskets, I started picking them and putting them on the ground. I need to give the fruit trees enough time to continue blooming and bearing fruit.
After the work mode ends, I enter the study mode again, and then enter the sleep mode when I am tired.
The next day, Zhou Xiang woke up early, washed up, left the space, found a breakfast place, asked the time, and it was only six o'clock.
I ordered a bowl of tofu pudding and fried dough sticks and started eating. Then I remembered that the devil had brought me these same breakfasts for the past few days. Maybe it was just a coincidence! I paid for breakfast and had 17 cents left.
Standing opposite the Finance Bureau and observing the terrain, Zhou saw a corner of a wall on the right. He wanted to go over and check it out. It was an alley, very narrow. The wall on the other side seemed to belong to a large unit. Well, not bad, the walls of the two units were not adjacent, leaving him with usable space.
I entered the space in this narrow alley and started picking cucumbers and tomatoes. I estimated the time, came out of the space, and stretched my head to look at the gate of the Finance Bureau. Someone was already at the gate. He was tall and should be the logistics director.
Move out eight baskets of peaches, thirteen baskets of pears, thirteen baskets of apples, a small basket of cucumbers and a small basket of tomatoes, and place the rapeseed and leeks on top of the cucumbers and tomatoes.
After looking at the things he had prepared, he realized that they were almost done. He shouted loudly to the gate, "Uncle, tall uncle."
Wu Jianfeng, who was standing anxiously at the door, was a little suspicious that he had been desperate and tried all kinds of methods yesterday. He even believed what a little girl said and really wanted to try it in the morning. Since he couldn't see anyone, he suspected that the little girl was still sleeping!
I was just about to go to the office and stop blowing in the cold wind when I heard the little girl calling a tall uncle. I couldn't help laughing and turned to look in the direction where the voice came from.
The little girl was hiding in the corner and waving at him. Wu Jianfeng walked over and saw dozens of wicker baskets behind the little girl. Each basket was full of fruits, and there were two small baskets of vegetables.
"How did you transport it here? I didn't see any car!"
"I arrived around 4 or 5 o'clock. My dad brought me here. After unloading the car, we went to the farmers' market to reserve a stall."
Wu Jianfeng thought what he said made sense. It was just that the adults in this family were too careless and left the little girl here before dawn. Fortunately, there was such an alley here.
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the logistics department and ask someone to call a car to pick it up. We'll go there to weigh it."
"Okay, go ahead. I'll wait."
Wu Jianfeng called five or six men to pull two carts. The men quickly moved the baskets onto the carts. The carts were full with only eight baskets.
Zhou wanted to stop them from piling, "If you pull more, the fruits will get spoiled."
Wu Jianfeng asked someone to stay behind to watch and took Zhou Xiang to the logistics department. When they arrived at the logistics department, where the lights were on, everyone could see clearly the juicy fruits and vegetables in the baskets.
"Where did you buy such big fruits, Director? They are so juicy that I want to eat them just by looking at them."
"Yeah, it's not easy to buy fresh fruit in this winter!"
"Director, are you planning to give us some of our New Year's gifts? Aren't these few baskets enough?"
Wu Jianfeng chased everyone away, "Get out of the way! We haven't weighed or paid yet! There's more to come. Isn't 20 kilograms per family enough?"
"Not enough, not enough. These fruits are so big, each one weighs almost half a pound. Twenty pounds only has forty fruits. It's really not enough."
"That's right, that's right. If the company doesn't have the money to buy it, we'll buy it ourselves."
"Well, one yuan per pound, pay up!" Wu Jianfeng was angry. He worked so hard but got no thanks.
When everyone heard this, they realized that at one yuan per pound, twenty pounds would cost twenty yuan, which was half a month's salary.
But this fruit is so attractive! I'll pay for it.
"Where did you buy it, Director Wu? Tell me, buy some for my mother-in-law's family!"
Wu Jianfeng chuckled, "You bastard, you only care about your mother-in-law's family, but where is your own mother's?"
"Isn't this something the company gave me? I'm giving it to my mother to eat."
"It's gone, and there are so many goods coming. How can we preserve them in the winter?"
Wu Jianfeng didn't want to cause trouble for the girl, so he didn't tell her that the girl next to him was selling fruit.
When everyone heard this, they agreed, yes, fruits are difficult to preserve in winter!
Everyone dispersed and watched as several people carried the fruits. It took seven carts to bring in all the fruit baskets.
Each basket was weighed and then estimated to weigh more than 80 kilograms after peeling. In the end, there were 650 kilograms of peaches, 2,100 kilograms of apples and pears together, 60 kilograms of cucumbers and tomatoes, 10 kilograms of rapeseed, and 10 bunches of leeks.
The total amount was 2,380 yuan. Wu Jianfeng took Zhou Xiang to the finance office, collected the money, and handed a thick stack of money to Zhou Xiang after leaving the finance office. The largest denomination was ten yuan, totaling 238 bills.
Zhou Xiang took it, put it in his pocket, and entered the space.
Wu Jianfeng saw that she put the money into her pocket nonchalantly and wanted to say something, but Zhou Xiang didn't give him a chance and ran away.
He shook his head. When did he become so fussy? The little girl looked capable, so he should have paid attention to it. And she didn't seem nervous at all with so much money. She must have been in contact with money frequently.
Zhou Xiang ran to the supply and marketing cooperative, which was already open. When she reached the milk powder counter, she sweetly called out to the salesperson, "Sister, I want to buy milk powder and malted milk."
The salesperson was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You little girl, you have to call me auntie. I'm over 30 years old and my children are almost as old as you."
"You look just like my sister. My sister is already 20 years old, so it's not wrong for me to call you sister."
The salesperson's grin widened. "How many bags of milk powder and malted milk do you want to buy?"
"I want ten bags of milk powder and five bottles of malted milk."
"Hey, little girl, do you have money? Do you have a ticket?" the salesperson joked.
“Is it possible to buy one even without a ticket?”
"It's possible, but it's expensive if you don't have a ticket."
“If there are no tickets, the price is high.”
"Milk powder is seven yuan a bag without a ticket, and malted milk is three yuan and fifty yuan a bottle without a ticket." The salesperson was happy and in the mood to talk to Zhou Xiang.
"Then sister, please help me get ten bags of milk powder and five bottles of malted milk. I'll give you the money."
The salesperson took the bill and counted it. It was ninety. He really had enough money to buy it. He wrote out the receipt and handed it to Zhou Xiang together with the money. "Little girl, go over there to pay." He pointed to a place not far from the gate.
There was indeed a sign saying "Cash Counter" there. Zhou wanted to walk over, but he couldn't reach it. The cash register window was too high, at least 1.4 meters.
Zhou Xiang jumped up and shouted, "Sister, I want to pay."
The cashier heard the sound, leaned his head out of the window, and saw Zhou Xiang still jumping. He thought this little girl was really funny.
