Chapter 199 The Girl Selling Tomatoes

Yuan Xiao started selling hair growth cream and fragrant wind pills in the store, and within a few days, they became another trend in Beijing.

Now, department stores and supermarkets have been opened one after another in Beijing, and some are also imitating the Yunxiao brand.

But the things made in Yuan Xiao's store are unique, and it is not so easy for others to imitate.

So the opening of other stores has basically no big impact on Yuan Xiao.

However, hair growth cream is more difficult to make than black hair pills, and basically has to be limited in supply. Orders have been placed for half a year.

December came quietly, and the first snow fell since the beginning of winter.

Yuan Xiao was worried about the tomatoes grown in the greenhouse, so he went to the outskirts of Beijing to see the tomatoes with an umbrella.

Walking into the greenhouse, he breathed a sigh of relief, it was much warmer inside than outside.

The tomatoes inside seemed to be unaffected by the weather. They were hanging red on the saplings and looked like small lanterns.

The people from the Agricultural Research Association were originally scheduled to come next month, but the tomatoes have matured ahead of schedule and will probably be ready for picking in a few days.

She excitedly returned to the school to find Professor Wen and told him the good news.

Professor Wen was not too happy, but asked, "Have you figured out how to sell the tomatoes?"

Yuan Xiao's smile froze. She really hadn't thought about this.

Yes! Tens of thousands of kilograms of tomatoes must be sold, right?

Even if the weather is cold, they can't be stored for too long.

"Professor, you ask this because you have a way to sell them?"

Professor Wen looked at her with disdain, "Do you still want me, an old man, to sell tomatoes?" After

leaving the laboratory, Yuan Xiao grabbed her hair in annoyance.

"Yuan Xiao!"

Yuan Xiao paused when she heard someone calling her name.

She turned around with a puzzled look on her face, she didn't know this person.

In the middle of winter, this boy was still wearing shorts and holding a basketball in his hand.

"Yuan Xiao, hello!"

Yuan Xiao asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Why did such a sunny boy look a little bit filthy?

"My name is Zhu Chaoyang. We have a friendly match with Peking University on Saturday. Do you have time to come and watch?"

Yuan Xiao frowned and suddenly felt like a student.

She had too many things to do. Most of the time she was busy making money. The school was just a place for regular classes, and she had never participated in many student activities.

Thinking about it this way, she really didn't look like a student.

Yuan Xiao wanted to take Yuan Laixi with him, but she might not be free on Saturday.

After struggling for a long time, "I'm sorry, I don't think I will have time on Saturday."

Zhu Chaoyang was like a big fool, holding the back of his head and laughing foolishly, "It's okay, but did something happen to you? I saw that you looked unhappy just now."

"It's nothing serious, it's just that Professor Wen and I just planted a new acre of tomatoes, and I don't know how to sell them."

Zhu Chaoyang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

It turns out that classmate Yuanxiao usually grows tomatoes.

He suddenly remembered what his roommate said, that it might be a bit difficult to cultivate a common hobby with Yuanxiao.

He doesn't know how to grow vegetables.

"Have you eaten? Or let's go to the cafeteria... Oh, yes, the cafeteria! You can sell it to the school cafeteria!"

Yuanxiao looked at him in surprise, this is really possible.

Zhu Chaoyang smiled and said, "The canteen is contracted by my second uncle. How much do you have? I'll talk to him."

"Not much, just one mu, more than 30,000 catties, no more than 40,000 catties!"

Zhu Chaoyang knew that 30,000 catties per mu was definitely a high yield, no matter how ignorant he was about this.

He paused for a moment, a little embarrassed, "Then... maybe the canteen doesn't need so much."

"It doesn't matter, ask your second uncle how many catties you need, and then come to the greenhouse to pick them. Our tomatoes are big and sweet, and they're delicious!"

Yuan Xiao spared no effort to promote his own big tomatoes.

Zhu Chaoyang smiled foolishly, feeling that the distance between him and Yuan Xiao had shortened a lot.

Yuan Xiao left school with a plan in mind.

She couldn't wait to get home and write down everything in her mind.

There are many universities in Beijing. Agricultural University has a canteen, and so do other universities. In this way, tens of thousands of kilograms of tomatoes were sold out quickly.

It can also open up a market for the company's future vegetables and form a fixed cooperation with these canteens.

The company can also open a fresh supermarket, specializing in selling fresh vegetables. The vegetables will not be left overnight, and if you buy a lot, you can provide door-to-door delivery service.

After writing excitedly, Yuan Xiao exclaimed that he was simply a little genius.

The next day, Yuan Xiao began to think about the canteens of various universities.

In order to let students eat well, the canteens are all contracted out to private individuals.

The first place Yuan Xiao went to was Beijing University. Through the canteen aunt, he found the owner of the canteen.

Yuan Xiao didn't know if all canteen owners were like this, fat and with few hairs.

"Hello, uncle. My name is Yuan Xiao."

The boss raised his eyebrows after hearing this. "You call me uncle?"

Yuan Xiao: ???

Is that wrong?

"How old are you?"

Yuan Xiao said, "I just turned 19."

The restaurant owner sneered, "I'm 23 this year!"

He didn't hide his resentment at all.

Yuan Xiao couldn't help but look at his shiny forehead. His hairline was like this at the age of 23. If he was older, he wouldn't have a hairline, right?

Yuan Xiao's scrutiny and disbelief were too obvious. The restaurant owner couldn't help but stand up and curse, "That's enough!"

"You don't look like you're here to do business. Do you know how many times your eyes have hurt me!"

Yuan Xiao stood up hurriedly, "No, no, I just think your forehead is very unique!"

The canteen owner was furious and grabbed his hair. Unexpectedly, a few strands of hair fell out after just a light pull.

He was a little frustrated. He put his hands in his pockets, looked up and glared at Yuan Xiao, "What are you looking at! Haven't you seen people losing their hair?"

Yuan Xiao: ...I've never seen hair loss like this.

The canteen owner frowned and sat down again, "Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Yuan Xiao remembered the business, "Boss, I have tens of thousands of pounds of tomatoes. Do you have any?"

"Tomatoes? There are still tomatoes in this season?"

Their canteen has been eating cabbage and radishes every day recently. The students are about to vomit and have been complaining.

He looked at Yuan Xiao suspiciously, "Is it not fresh?"

"It hasn't been picked yet!" Yuan Xiao retorted.

The boss seemed a little unconvinced and asked, "Why are you still growing tomatoes at this time? Won't they freeze to death?"

Yuan Xiao didn't tell him much.

She had just discovered that this tomato variety seemed to be cold-resistant.

Of course, it could also be because of the greenhouse.

The two reached a consensus, and the restaurant owner took Yuan Xiao to see her tomatoes.
