Chapter 326 Business Opportunities
"This is not a lot!" Sister Jane was not impressed: "When we returned to the village last night, this family gave us some, and that family gave us some, and it was more than this."
An Songyu was a little unconvinced.
She is also from Jiang Village, and the villagers were particularly warm and welcoming after their family returned.
But no matter how enthusiastic you are, you can't give so much as just plums and melons.
"Because their village specializes in growing plums and melons." On the way back, Jian Ziyu explained his girlfriend's doubts.
"All?" An Songyu asked with some confusion.
Jian Ziyu nodded affirmatively: "Their village is called Li Village, not because of the surname Li, but because almost the entire village is planted with plum trees."
"I heard that the plum trees in their village were originally wild plum trees dug up from the mountains by our ancestors."
“Later, because they tasted good, the seedlings that grew every year were never wasted.”
"Year after year, the whole village is filled with plum trees."
"Later, even after the land was collectivized, the plum trees in their village were never cut down."
"It's just that after the reform and opening up, there are more plums on the market."
"Although their varieties are good, the transportation conditions are not up to standard, so the taste will be greatly reduced."
"What do you mean?" It was the first time that An Songyu heard such words.
An Jianmin's family is in the fruit business.
To be honest, An Songyu is not unfamiliar with this industry.
"If you pick the Sanhua plum variety too early, it won't be sweet enough."
"After picking, they become soft easily. Not to mention whether they taste good, they also lose a lot of weight during transportation."
"And if you leave it overnight, it will look thicker."
"It is also easy for insects to breed. If the pesticide is not applied enough, the insects will crawl out after one night, and other plums may be harmed by them."
"But I took too much medicine..."
"Over the years, the livelihood of Li Village has changed from being completely dependent on plums to being half dependent on plums and half dependent on cantaloupe."
After listening to this, An Songyu finally understood a little.
Speaking of the Sanhua plum variety, at least in southern Province, it is one of the more well-known varieties of plums.
Anyway, it seems that we can see it after the first wave of plums come on the market.
As a native of Southern Province, An Songyu naturally buys it every year.
But as for its taste...
If you can accept a certain degree of acidity, you will still find it tastes particularly good.
I just don't know what these naturally ripened ones from the trees taste like.
Thinking of this, An Songyu couldn't help but look back.
In the back seat, the Jian family not only brought them Sanhua plums and cantaloupe.
They also brought wild loquats that they picked from the mountains.
It is one of the common fruits in this season.
I just heard that it's because no one takes care of it and it's not an improved variety.
Therefore, these loquats have small fruits, large cores and thick skins.
There isn't much to recommend it other than it's rich flavor and naturally ripe and extra sweet.
But this season is a good time to eat this.
That's why they picked some and brought them back before setting off.
"Why, are you feeling hungry now?" Jian Ziyu noticed his girlfriend's eyes and couldn't help asking.
An Songyu quickly shook his head.
He touched his still bloated stomach and said helplessly:
"Who would have known that your sister would bring back wild wormwood?"
"She brings some every year. In addition to what she brings back, she will also go out of her way to cut some more in the village." Jian Ziyu answered as a matter of course.
An Songyu looked over with some confusion.
"Mugwort is a very magical plant." Jian Ziyu thought for a moment before answering, "Fresh mugwort can also be used as medicine."
"But the longer it is left there, the better its efficacy becomes."
"The people in Li Village have always had the custom of picking mugwort during the Dragon Boat Festival."
"And every household likes to use Chen Ai as a good thing that they cannot live without in their daily life."
"Women use it to soak their feet, wash their hair, and occasionally soak their bodies in water, and all have very good effects."
"The exceptions are children and the elderly."
"In addition, in mosquito-prone seasons, lighting a cigarette before entering the house can also drive away mosquitoes hiding in dark corners!"
"You know all this?" An Songyu widened his eyes in disbelief.
Jian Ziyu couldn't help but laugh: "I didn't know this before, my brother-in-law told me all this."
Brother-in-law Jane has a relatively introverted personality.
He truly came from the countryside.
In order to earn money for his schooling, his parents left the countryside to work very early.
So he doesn't go back to the village very often every year.
But it can be seen that both he and his family have very deep feelings for their village.
Every year during reunion festivals like this, the family would try their best to go back to the village together.
After Sister Jane got married, she continued this family custom.
Jian Ziyu was still a student at that time, and would be picked up by her sister whenever she had holidays.
Over time, he knew a lot about the things in the village.
"Then how are their Sanhua plums and melons sold now?" An Songxiang's heart moved slightly, and he immediately asked calmly.
"I don't know about that!" Jian Ziyu shook his head slightly.
He thought of the fruit stall at his girlfriend's uncle's house, and explained:
"My brother-in-law's family hasn't been in the village for a long time."
"Although their old house and fields are there."
"But they were basically given to my relatives to grow."
"Every year when they return to the village, they bring a lot of fruits and vegetables."
"But when it comes to the fruit business of other families in the village, these two young people have basically never paid attention to it."
Although my brother-in-law's family definitely knows.
But Jian Ziyu also had concerns.
After all, An Songyu is just an idea now.
I haven’t even informed An Jianmin’s family yet.
I need to ask Licun in advance...it would be fine if their sales are normal.
If you encounter difficulties, wouldn't his question be like a lifeline?
As long as it wouldn't be difficult for the An family, he would naturally be happy to help.
But if it would cause trouble for An's family and his girlfriend, he wouldn't even say it.
After all, in comparison, his girlfriend's relationship with him is definitely closer.
Although his sister and brother-in-law are from the village, their family has not grown fruits and vegetables for a long time.
Thinking of this, Jian Ziyu was not in a hurry.
He looked at An Songyu.
Based on his understanding of his girlfriend, if she really had this idea, she should have taken the next action.
Then when the time comes, he will help to find out.
If the deal between them can really be facilitated, I believe it will be a good thing for both parties.
However, An Songyu was not really thinking about An Jianmin's fruit stall at this time.
There was another place she was thinking of.
