With a large sum of money in my pocket and my waistline getting bigger, if I don't squander it all, even God will be angry.
After stockpiling a batch of goods, Zuo Ling learned from experience and rented a van.
Qinzhou pomegranates are world-famous. Since we're already here, we should stock up on some; otherwise, we'd be doing the pomegranate trees a disservice.
Drive directly to the pomegranate orchard, where there are over 50 varieties. Try them first, and choose the ones with thin skin, red color, and sweet taste to store.
Okay, I've chosen. 50 baskets, 50 jin per basket, and I'll also buy 20 fruit tree seedlings.
Fire crystal persimmons are as famous as pomegranates from Qinzhou.
Zuo Ling arrived twenty days early, but the persimmons weren't ready for harvest yet, so they couldn't be stored as persimmons. Instead, they stored large red dates.
Qinzhou is the most suitable place to grow jujube trees, regardless of temperature, water, sunlight or soil.
Red dates contain protein, organic acids, vitamins, calcium, phosphorus and other minerals, and have the effects of nourishing the spleen and stomach, replenishing qi and promoting body fluids, and clearing heat and detoxifying.
It is also said to protect the liver, enhance muscle strength, and increase weight.
Zuo Ling bought twenty large red dates for her former mother-in-law, which cost more than 50 yuan, or more than 2 yuan each.
Such excellent products, which can be used for both medical treatment and dietary therapy, are not to be missed.
As for gaining weight... Zuo Ling ignored it, pretending not to know.
In the apocalypse, everyone is as thin as a ghost; gaining even a pound of weight is an extreme luxury.
20 jin per box, stock up on 100 boxes.
Zuo Ling was surprised by the price of the red dates; 2,000 jin (1,000 catties) only cost 6,000 yuan!
The size is not much smaller than the one I bought for my former mother-in-law, and the taste is about the same.
Zuo Ling couldn't figure out the difference; it was far too much.
With the fruit in hand, the jujube seedlings couldn't be overlooked; 20 jujube seedlings were stockpiled.
After stocking up on red dates, I passed by a chestnut orchard and remembered that chestnuts have similar requirements for soil and climate as red dates.
Where there are big red dates, there are naturally chestnut orchards. Don't miss it if you're passing by.
Just thinking about chestnut chicken makes my mouth water.
One box weighs 20 jin (10 catties), give me 100 boxes, plus 20 chestnut saplings.
After stocking up on the three items, and doing the math, including the saplings, it came to a little over 30,000 yuan.
She remarked that pomegranates, red dates, and chestnuts were the most suitable supplies she had ever stocked up on, typical examples of high quality and low price.
Thinking about her net worth of over 80 million, I felt a surge of pride and continued hoarding.
While stocking up chestnuts, I saw a fruit farmer eating a watermelon and casually asked, "Is the watermelon sweet?"
Thinking that Zuo Ling wanted to ask him for a watermelon, the watermelon farmer handed Zuo Ling a piece with a smile and said:
"Girl, are you from out of town? Our Zhouzhi watermelons are sold all the way to the other side of the ocean. Of course they're sweet! Foreigners love them."
Zuo Ling took a bite; the flesh was crisp and the fruit was sweet—it was indeed delicious.
With a turn of the steering wheel, we drove towards the melon fields of Zhouzhi.
Watermelons have a long fruiting season, so she wasn't late.
Remembering the lesson learned from hoarding melons last time, Zuo Ling was more cautious and only asked for 500 melons.
Seeing that she was a stranger, they assumed that Zuo Ling was a newly started melon vendor who had been given a very favorable wholesale price by the melon farmers.
After stocking up on the watermelons, I realized that I haven't eaten watermelon in a long time, having been running around all day.
I was so busy hoarding food that I forgot to eat it, and I didn't have time to eat it.
When I'm busy, I only eat what's convenient and quick.
Peeling crayfish and salt and pepper shrimp in the space is both laborious and time-consuming; one only feels like eating them when one has free time.
I couldn't help but smile wryly.
Well, in any case, having a whole space of supplies lined up waiting for her to favor is better than wanting to eat but not being able to get in line.
After stocking up on fruits and vegetables, I spent a long time searching online, trying to find something else to stock up on, and finally decided on Huang Gui Thick Wine.
Huang Gui Chou Jiu is a type of rice wine made by steaming glutinous rice, adding yeast, and fermenting it.
Opinions on Huang Gui Chou Jiu (a type of rice wine) are mixed online. To be honest, the product itself is good, but the people who make it have ruined its reputation.
Based on feedback from netizens, Zuo Ling chose a long-established private restaurant.
I tried it first, and the taste was good. It was fragrant, sweet, mellow, and refreshing, with a moderate level of sweetness.
12 bottles per case, order 500 cases.
Drinking rice wine made from grains is much healthier than drinking carbonated water or caffeinated beverages.
With Huang Gui Thick Wine, you can drink less sugary drinks.
At the end of the day, despite visiting many places, I didn't spend much money; the total cost was just over 100,000 yuan.
I'm once again struck by how down-to-earth the people of Qinzhou are, and how affordable the prices are.
He returned the truck to the rental shop and drove his own car to find food on the street.
Having heard that Anshi's famous gourd chicken was good, Zuo Ling went directly to the famous night market food stall.
I ordered a gourd chicken, a warm-mixed pork kidney, and a dish of tripe that was hung out to dry.
I just ordered 500 cases of Huang Gui Chou Jiu (a type of rice wine), but I didn't order any drinks.
The gourd chicken is golden in color, with crispy skin and tender meat, truly deserving of its reputation as a signature dish at night market stalls.
Zuo Ling used both hands simultaneously, showing no ladylike manners whatsoever, and ate with great relish.
I called over a shop assistant, ordered 20, and took them away.
The stir-fried pork kidney strips were disappointing; the main ingredient was pork kidney, but it tasted like pig's blood.
The tripe served with the clothes hung out to dry was above average, crisp and delicious, mainly thanks to the tasty dipping sauce.
Zuo Ling specializes in gourd chicken and tripe for drying clothes. She eats a chicken until only the chicken carcass is left, and she also eats most of the tripe.
He patted his round belly, carrying 20 gourd-shaped chickens, and left the food stall.
The night was beautiful, and Zuo Ling didn't want to go back to the hotel.
Get in the car and move the gourd chicken into the space.
After resting for a while, we went to the antique street to try our luck and see if we could find any energy crystals.
After wandering around for more than an hour, the good luck from the trip to Jinzhou was gone, and I didn't see a single energy crystal.
There was still some time before the Ghost Market opened, so I drove to the vicinity of the Tang West Market and parked in a quiet, deserted spot.
Set your alarm, close your eyes and rest.
In the early hours of the morning, the alarm clock woke Zuo Ling up.
Wearing a baseball cap, a black face mask, and black sportswear, with a riot vest underneath, a bulletproof backpack, and darts, pepper spray, a stun gun, and a self-defense baton in his pocket, he is ready to be deployed at any time.
