Captain Liu still had some work to do. He shook his head and said, "No, I'll go back with Aunt Qin and the others in a while."
Afterwards, Tian Datou rode away on his bicycle. After watching him leave, Tian Juan communicated with her husband with her eyes.
Captain Liu understood immediately and took out thirty yuan from his pocket and handed it to Old Lady Qin.
Old Lady Qin looked at him in confusion: "Captain Liu, what are you doing?"
Captain Liu explained with a smile: "My wife and I are very grateful to you for taking over the orchard, but you have tasted the fruit and it is almost inedible.
I guess the basic reason is that the soil here is simply not suitable for planting, and you will most likely lose money.
So, think of this money as a gift from my brother-in-law. Although it’s not a lot, it can help reduce your losses.”
After hearing what Captain Liu said, it was even more impossible for Old Lady Qin to ask for his money: "We took over this orchard voluntarily. How can we ask for your money? That would be a big deal."
"But after all, you took over this orchard through me, and I can't let you lose so much money." Captain Liu's expression was extremely serious.
Jiang Yuxin couldn't help laughing: "Captain Liu, are you so sure that we will lose money?"
Captain Liu looked puzzled and said, "Haven't you already tasted it? To put it bluntly, even if you give this fruit away for free, no one will necessarily want it."
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe we can make the fruit sweeter. Anyway, we definitely don't want this money. You should put it away." Jiang Yuxin pushed the money back.
Captain Liu was helpless: "Then when you guys sell the fruit, we'll sell some, and you're not allowed to refuse us then!"
"Okay, it's a deal!" Jiang Yuxin did not refuse this request.
When it is sold, the taste will definitely be different.
Thinking that only Han'er could change the taste of the fruit, there was no point for them to stay here, so they all went back.
When they got home, it was already twelve o'clock. As soon as they entered the yard, they smelled the fragrance of food.
No need to guess, you know it must be the old man cooking and the eldest brother making the fire.
The few of them did not rush to the kitchen, but watched Ergouzi's children in front of the doghouse.
Today is the fourth day since the puppies were born. Their fur looks much brighter, their eyes are fully open, and they are all growing fat.
Right now, he is drinking milk and making some humming sounds, which are so cute that they can almost melt your heart.
Ergouzi was lying beside his wife, massaging Beibei with his paws.
Beibei squinted his eyes and enjoyed it. When he saw the people from Lao Qin's family, he immediately wagged his tail.
Old Lady Qin was the first to stand up: "I'll go to the kitchen to see if your father has prepared a nutritious meal for Beibei."
Although there is no such thing as confinement for dogs in rural areas, Beibei is Ergou's wife and has given birth to a puppy for him. She is a great contributor to the Qin family and cannot be treated unfairly.
As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw the old man stirring the vegetables in the pot, and the eldest son was sitting on a low stool, making a fire.
"Old man, have you made chicken soup for Beibei?"
"I stewed chicken soup yesterday, and today I stewed a rabbit for Beibei." said Old Man Qin.
"A rabbit is fine too. I thought you forgot about it!" Old Mrs. Qin said as she washed her hands with a ladle.
Qin Jiandang asked curiously, "Mom, where did you go? Dad and I came back and didn't see you."
Old Lady Qin walked to the stove and took over the old man's work: "Captain Liu's brother-in-law took us to the orchard. We have already bought the orchard."
When they heard that they were going to the orchard, the father and son immediately became interested: "Is the orchard big? Did you buy it for 300 yuan?"
Old Lady Qin responded while cooking: "The orchard is not small, and the fruit harvest is good, but the taste is hard to eat, especially the oranges, which are so sour that they can make your teeth sour.
As for the price, it remained unchanged, but Captain Liu gave us thirty yuan, saying that he couldn't bear to see us suffer a loss for so many people, but we didn't want it.
He thought we would lose money, but with Han'er here, we still have time to make money, so why would we take his money? "
"It's right not to ask for money." Old Man Qin nodded in agreement.
At five o'clock in the evening, Qin Han and his brothers and sisters returned home after class.
He already knew that his family had bought the orchard, so at noon, he came to the orchard, took out water from the Qiankun Realm, and irrigated every tree.
As for why the taste of the fruit is so bad, it is closely related to the geographical environment.
This area is not suitable for planting, but with him around, even after experiencing an atomic bomb attack, he can still grow a paradise, not to mention changing the taste of this fruit.
Just irrigation once is not enough to cure the disease.
Judging from the taste, it will take at least a week. It's just right for him to wait until his day off and bring his whole family over.
By then, the taste of oranges and grapefruits will undergo a drastic change.
When Jiang Yuxin saw Han'er coming back, she couldn't wait to tell him about the acquisition of the orchard.
Qin Han knew what his mother was thinking, so he assured her that he had a way to make the fruit taste better.
When the time comes, I take the whole family to the orchard and let them eat fruit until they are full.
"Mom, I'm not worried about that. It's just that the taste of the fruit suddenly becomes better, and I don't know how to explain it reasonably." This is what Jiang Yuxin is most worried about.
In just one week, the taste of the fruit was improved, which sounds incredible.
Qin Han had thought about this a long time ago. This year, we won't do that with the fruit, so no one will know that the taste of the oranges has changed.
Next year, we will say that Sister Qin Qiu, who is engaged in chemical research, has developed a nutritional supplement.
"But if we don't sell them, the fruits will stay on the tree and rot over time, which is a shame."
"Don't worry about this mom. How can this happen with me here?"
Jiang Yuxin smiled and touched Han'er's head: "How could Mom forget about this? Everything is up to you.
Go do your homework, mom will help feed the chickens."
Qin Han recalled the scene of himself handing his homework to Zhu Likang to do, and couldn't help but lie: "I finished my homework at school."
"Child, I haven't seen you doing your homework at home since school started. Tell me honestly, did you not do it at all, or did you use magic to finish it in one go?" Jiang Yuxin wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Qin Han shook his head without hesitation: "No, I promise it is handwritten. Mom, if you don't believe me, I will check it for you."
As he said that, he opened his schoolbag and prepared to take out his homework book.
How could Jiang Yuxin not believe her son? She quickly stopped him: "No need to check. Since you have finished your homework, go and play by yourself or watch TV." After that, she went to the kitchen.
Qin Han looked at her back and said in his heart, although it was handwritten, it was not written by him.
Then he put down his schoolbag and prepared to pet the dog when the phone at home rang.
