Chapter 149: Come on, second uncle!
Having said that, the next morning, after Li Yong made breakfast for the children and personally sent them to school, he immediately packed up and went home.
After being busy for a while at noon, Li Xu went outside to find the person who made the sign and measured the size.
The efficiency there was quite fast, and it was done around four o'clock in the afternoon.
The sign is quite large and only cost two hundred yuan, including installation.
By the time Ji Yuanyuan and her friends got out of school, the sign had just been installed.
"See, what do you think?" Li Xu asked, holding Ji Yuanyuan's little hand.
It's not really that good, it's a bit flashy. But now it's popular to have such eye-catching colors, it's eye-catching!
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and said nothing.
Ji Zixuan and Ji Ziang were quite happy. With the sign, the whole store looked more upscale.
Especially at night, the words on the sign will be lit up by a circle of lights, making it look even more classy!
…
In the blink of an eye, it was Saturday again. This week, Ji Yuanyuan had time, so she went to the Qin family to deliver soup as usual.
When a few people went over, Qin Xiaomin was there too.
Ji Yuanyuan skillfully opened the cabinet and changed her shoes. She then placed the thermos on the coffee table, put the study on the sofa, and automatically sat down next to Qin Junshan.
Qin Junshan took some fruit from the coffee table and handed it to her: "Eat it quickly, I bought it especially for you, it's very fresh!"
It is a red strawberry, big in size and delicious!
Ji Yuanyuan held the plate and shared the food with her two brothers!
Seeing Ji Yuanyuan's familiar look, Qin Xiaomin said with a smile: "Uncle, you and Yuanyuan are now close friends regardless of age!"
Qin Junshan laughed: "Of course not, Yuanyuan and I can get along well! If she doesn't like that brat Qin Mucheng in the future, I will recognize her as my granddaughter!"
Ji Yuanyuan pursed her lips and smiled. She thought: She would definitely like Qin Mucheng, but she didn’t know if Qin Mucheng would like her!
"By the way, Yuanyuan, I heard that your uncle is back?" Qin Xiaomin asked again.
Looking at Qin Xiaomin's appearance, Ji Yuanyuan felt a little thoughtful.
After a moment, she nodded: "Yes, my eldest uncle was discharged from the army, so we went home last weekend, and my second uncle went back too."
When Qin Xiaomin heard Ji Yuanyuan mention Li Yong, her eyes brightened up.
"By the way, my second uncle resigned!" Ji Yuanyuan already understood that Qin Xiaomin waited here on purpose today, probably just to find out about his second uncle.
"Resign? Then why didn't he come with you today?" Qin Junshan asked curiously.
"My second uncle has returned to his hometown. He wants to help my grandparents farm in the future!"
"Farming?" Qin Xiaomin couldn't help but ask.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded: "Yes, my second uncle said he is not afraid of hard work, farming can make more money than working in a restaurant!"
However, after Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking, Qin Xiaomin's expression was still a little gloomy.
She didn't seem to have listened to Ji Yuanyuan's words at all. She repeated in a somewhat lost voice: "Farming!"
Ji Yuanyuan knew that Qin Xiaomin had misunderstood, so she explained, "Aunt Qin, don't look down on farming. You can make a lot of money!"
Qin Junshan listened to Ji Yuanyuan's words and nodded with appreciation.
"Yuanyuan is right. Even if we don't make money, we can't look down on the farmers who grow crops. Without them, where would we eat, right? Whose family hasn't been a farmer for three generations?" Qin Junshan looked at Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded, "Yes, and my second uncle is determined and can endure hardships, so he will definitely make money in the future!"
After a pause, he added: "Big money!"
Qin Xiaomin didn't seem to be listening at all, she just stood up in a panic: "Uncle, I suddenly remembered that I still have the fire at home, so I'll go back first."
After saying that, he left without waiting for Qin Junshan to answer.
The back figure looked somewhat disheveled, and Ji Yuanyuan sighed slowly.
Qin Junshan heard the sigh and smiled: "What are you sighing for, little girl?"
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head: "Nothing, I just feel a little sorry for my second uncle."
Aunt Qin seems to have misunderstood!
Why is it that when it comes to farming, people feel that it is a sign of being useless and having no ambition?
Second uncle, work hard to make money and change Aunt Qin's opinion! Become tall, rich and handsome, marry a beautiful, rich and pretty girl, and reach the pinnacle of life!
Li Yong, who was busy applying fertilizer in the field, suddenly sneezed.
He raised his hand, rubbed his nose, and thought to himself: Who is scolding me behind my back?
Li Lei saw him stop and asked, "What's wrong? Do you have a cold?"
Li Yong shook his head, "It's okay!"
In a few days, the eggplants in the field can be picked. After they are picked, it is time to take out the film at home and cover the fields.
"I'll call my sister later. If she can't do it, ask her to come first. I think a truck might not be able to carry all these eggplants. Pick the big ones first. The small ones can still grow for a few more days!"
There are so many eggplants, and their growth rates cannot be the same. There will always be some that grow fast and some that grow slow.
"Okay, let's gather together and pick them. With so many eggplants, we'll probably be exhausted!"
In the evening, Li Yong called Li Xu.
After hanging up the phone, Li Xu felt a little worried.
The car is easy to find, but the key is how to hide it from the public?
"First unload the eggplants into the store, and then put them into the space?" Li Xu muttered, "But there are so many people coming and going, we have to find a time in the evening when there are not many people around!"
"Mom, it would be great if we had a warehouse that could keep food fresh. That way we wouldn't have to worry about others getting suspicious!" Ji Yuanyuan suddenly said.
"That's called a cold storage, but renting one costs a lot of money!" Li Xu laughed, "When our business gets bigger and we make a lot of money, we can rent one, or even build one!"
But now, I can only think of a way to conceal the truth.
This is the only way! Unload it to the store first, and then put it all into the space when no one is around.
Li Xu did what he said and went to the vegetable market at around ten o'clock the next day.
When she was doing business in the vegetable market, she heard Liang Huimei say that her husband was in transportation and had a large truck at home.
Presumably, she knew a lot of people.
Sure enough, as soon as I explained my purpose, Liang Huimei immediately agreed.
In the afternoon, Liang Huimei called. Her cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone: "Sister, I found a car for you. As for the price, we are all acquaintances, so I asked him to give you a discount of five dollars."
"Thank you so much, Sister Liang." Li Xu said quickly.
"What are you thanking me for? But let me make one thing clear first. The driver only needs to drive and not unload the goods. You have to pay for dinner. Is that ok?"
"No problem, no problem."
"Okay, I'll give him the address of your store, and he'll come to see you tomorrow at noon!"
Li Xu thanked Liang Huimei again, agreed on a specific time, and then hung up the phone.
Li Xu called home again and told them to go to the fields to pick eggplants early tomorrow morning!
