My village can't be like this

Chapter 410: Going to the City to Sell Vegetables
After coming out of Mr. Zhang's place, Zhang An went to Zhang Jianfeng's house and looked at his fourth grandfather.

Finally, I went to the two uncles' houses and divided the things I brought out before heading back home.

When he got home, he found that his old mother had just hung up the phone, as if something happy had happened, with a happy smile on her face.

"Son, come here and I'll tell you something."

When Wang Fang saw Zhang An coming back, she immediately waved to him and called him over.

"What's wrong, Mom, something happy happened again, and you're smiling so happily."

Zhang An was a little confused, but seeing his mother so happy, it was definitely not a bad thing.

"When you didn't come back just now, Uncle Zhu called us and asked about our peppers and cucumbers. He said that there were a lot of people who wanted to buy them. He asked how many we had left. If there were more, we asked our family to get some. "

Wang Fang was so excited when she said this, she was not ambiguous at all if she could make money.

Normally she would be very happy to sell a few eggs at home, let alone the business coming to her door now.

"Uncle Zhu said that our chili peppers are more fragrant than those sold in the vegetable market, and they mature earlier, so he set a price of one yuan per catty for us. The cucumbers and cucumbers are also the same price. I was thinking about keeping our chili peppers. If you can’t finish it, you’ll get old in a few days, so it’s better to pick it and sell it, and you can continue to pick up new peppers, so I agreed to him.”

Usually at the vegetable market in the city, a pound of green peppers only costs [-] to [-] cents, and cucumbers and green vegetables are even cheaper.

Zhu Yuliang gave such a high price, which was several times higher than usual. If it were Zhang An, he might still hesitate.

But it was Wang Fang who answered the call just now. She was never vague about making money, so she naturally agreed without hesitation.

"This way, we can pick them when we get up tomorrow morning, and then you can send them over."

Before Zhang An opened his mouth, Wang Fang had already decided on the overall plan.

"Mom, there aren't many people at the Forestry Bureau. How many kilograms can they buy together?"

There are only dozens of people in the Forestry Bureau. Even if one person buys ten kilograms, it only costs two to three hundred kilograms.

It takes so much time to go back and forth on this road. Even if the price is very high, Zhang An doesn't want to run away too much.

"I said the same thing happened to Lao Zhu. He wouldn't tell me where I was and would only call when I came back."

"You don't have to worry about this. He told me that we should carry at least [-] kilograms over there. Anyway, you can just send it over to me honestly tomorrow."

One look at Zhang An's look, and Wang Fang knew that her son was addicted to laziness, but she would not coddle Zhang An as usual.

The price they offered was so high, and it could sell for hundreds of kilograms at a time. Where could she find such a good job? She didn't want to let it go.

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang again.

Wang Fang picked up the call and found that it was Su Ying's mother who was calling. She immediately smiled and said hello.

"Hey, mother-in-law, I heard from Xiaoan that Xiaoying's father is not feeling well. Is he okay?"

"Nothing's wrong, he just doesn't have a good appetite. Xiao An has already given it to him, and he even took some medicine to take it home today. Moreover, Xiao An brought so many vegetables over today. He ate deliciously at night, and he ate more than usual. Woolen cloth."

Wu Qiuping's voice came from the other end of the phone, and the two old sisters laughed and talked about their daily routine.

"By the way, in-laws, Xiao An brought me groceries today, and other colleagues in the unit saw it. They asked me to ask if there was enough at home. If there was any left, they all wanted to buy some."

The two sisters talked on the phone for a long time about the child in Su Ying's belly, and finally Wu Qiuping talked about the reason for calling.

"Hey, there are people over there who want them too. The Forestry Bureau just called and said they want to buy our peppers and cucumbers. What a coincidence. In-laws, look at how many people in your unit want them. I'll ask Xiao An to come over tomorrow."

Wang Fang was already very happy to have made the fortune from the Forestry Bureau.

Now that she heard that someone from Su Ying's mother also wanted it, she was even more happy.

Anyway, one sheep is being herded, and so is a group of sheep. I will pick more tomorrow and let Zhang An pull them over together.

"Then it's all delicious grown by you. Everyone wants to buy it. But I haven't counted the number of people. I don't know how many people want to buy it, but there are still quite a lot of people here who want to buy it. Everyone who saw me today spoke, I estimate there are about sixty or seventy of them."

When Wu Qiuping was at the unit today, she didn't think of asking everyone about their intentions first.

When I asked her how many she needed, it was really hard to decide, but after thinking about it, she told Wang Fang an approximate number of people needed.

"Okay, I'll pick some more tomorrow and ask Little An to bring them over. It doesn't matter what's left, just let him drag them around the street and sell them easily."

Although Wu Qiuping did not give a specific number, Wang Fang thought that the number of people was so much larger than that of the Forestry Bureau, so he must want a lot.

When all this is added up, it will cost thousands of pounds.

Fortunately, when she ordered peppers, she planted more peppers and planted half an acre of peppers.

Moreover, their pepper trees are also impressive, and each one is full of flowers.

If it weren't for normal peppers, I probably wouldn't have been able to pick so many after picking them.

After finishing the matter, Wu Qiuping was about to hang up the phone, but just as Su Ying finished correcting her homework and came downstairs, Wang Fang asked Su Ying to take the phone and say a few words to her mother.

Su Ying was thinking of taking some time to make a phone call today because of Su Shaowen's affairs.

Wu Qiuping called now. She took the phone, said a few words to her mother, and then asked Su Shaowen, who was boiling a jar of medicine, to come over and answer the phone.

It's fine when you don't answer the phone, but it's bad when you answer the phone.

Su Ying kept catching her father on the phone talking about his drinking problem.

Now she was an ancestor-level figure at home, so Su Shaowen didn't dare to say anything back.

In the end, it was only after he signed a series of contracts about drinking that Su Ying let him go with satisfaction.

Zhang An watched from the side, sighing and shaking his head, but did not dare to make a sound.

He originally wanted to bring some of the good wine at home to his father-in-law, but looking at it now, he may not be able to tolerate the wine.

"Mom, where else are you going?"

After making the call, Wang Fang changed her shoes and prepared to go out.

"We need so many peppers and cucumbers tomorrow. Our family will definitely be busy. I have to find someone quickly."

If it was only a few hundred kilograms, Zhang An and his family could pick it off in two hours.

But now we need so much, and we have to prepare it in the morning. With just three people at home, it will definitely be too late.

However, Wang Fang is not panicked at all. She is very familiar with this matter and can complete it with just a few people.

"No more, I'm going to find someone first, otherwise it will be inconvenient when everyone goes to bed later."

Seeing his old mother leaving in a hurry, Zhang An let her go.

Several big dogs at home heard Wang Fang opening the door and got up from the pen to follow, but Wang Fang drove them back to the pen.

Because the dogs in the village are all afraid of them, if you take them out at night, the whole village will be very noisy.

Zhang An returned to the room and found Su Ying holding the camera he brought back today.

"Stand there and I'll take a picture of you."

Su Ying raised the camera, pointed to the wall, and asked Zhang An to stand over. "Better say goodbye. It's not good to take pictures like this. When you get out of school tomorrow, let's go out and I'll take some pictures for you."

This white wall looks familiar to Zhang An. If a scale is added, the picture will look interesting.

Su Ying just picked it up to look at it, not for learning.

Although I don’t have it at home, Chen Ze and my aunt’s family have it.

Su Ying used to go to school in the provincial capital and was often exposed to this stuff.

When Zhang An got up the next morning, the person Wang Fang was looking for last night had already arrived at his door.

She also wanted to prepare breakfast for Su Ying, so she asked Zhang An to take everyone to pick vegetables in the vegetable field.

Zhang An thought for a while, and instead of looking for nylon bags, he picked up a bunch of large bamboo baskets and took everyone to the fields.

Because there was a drizzle in the morning, now the peppers, cucumbers and cucumbers are all stained with moisture.

If you put it in a nylon bag, it will be easily covered, especially if you have to run for several hours on the road, so it is not as breathable as a basket.

It's easy to get things done when there are many people, especially the few people Wang Fang found are very diligent.

They carried their own baskets on their backs, and in a short while they picked a basket and dumped it into Zhang An's big bamboo basket.

While everyone was picking them, they were still discussing how delicious the peppers were.

Next year, I must come to Zhang Anjia to plant spicy seeds.

When it was almost done, Zhang An came out of the field and started to carry it into the car.

At this time, the benefit of strong strength can be seen. Holding the basket with two hands, you can easily lift it.

Otherwise, it would take two people to lift the fully loaded bamboo basket weighing more than 200 kilograms with poles.

At about ten o'clock, Zhang An felt that it was almost done, so he shouted to stop.

Wang Fang originally planned to cook the meal in advance and let Zhang An eat before going.

But Zhang An planned to leave now and arrive in the city before twelve noon.

At that time, it happened to be when I got off work at noon, and I could still catch up with the canteen for dinner, so there was no need to waste time at home.

After all, he has to go to two places today. If he goes late and waits for others to start working in the afternoon, he will have to wait.

Not seeing any cars along the way, Zhang An stepped on the accelerator and arrived in the city earlier than usual.

It was only early eleven when we arrived at the Forestry Bureau, not yet the time to get off work at noon.

"Oh, you came so early. Can you pick so much this morning?"

Seeing Zhang An coming so early, Zhu Yuliang was quite surprised.

Because they had to be picked fresh, he thought Zhang An could only come over in the afternoon.

"I'm looking for someone to help me, otherwise I'd still be out in the fields now. Let's go to the cafeteria to eat first. We'll be able to weigh ourselves after get off work. But as we agreed, you have to come over and help me weigh myself. Otherwise, I won't be able to do it alone." People are simply too busy.”

Zhu Yuliang started this matter by messing with his mother. Naturally, Zhang An would not let him go and wanted to drag him into trouble.

"Why are you in a hurry? I'll wait until I get off work later and finish weighing everyone before going to eat. We only have dozens of people here. We can weigh you as you like and it can be done in a few hours."

Zhu Yuliang looked at the time and was not in a hurry to follow Zhang An to the cafeteria.

"No, no, after we finish here, we have to bring them to my mother's place. Their unit needs more people, otherwise you think I would bring so many here."

It definitely won’t take much time here alone, but there is also the mother-in-law’s place.

They are very strict and can't do anything else during working hours.

So Zhang An had to deal with this quickly and go directly.

Otherwise, Zhang An would still have to wait after they go to work in the afternoon.

"What? I thought they were all brought to us. I was also thinking about buying twenty or thirty kilograms later."

The cart obviously weighed more than 500 kilograms, and Zhu Yuliang thought Zhang An's family had picked too much.

He was thinking just now that he would buy more directly from Zhang An today.

Yesterday he finished the cucumber Zhang An gave him in the office, leaving only some green peppers to take back.

His wife used those green peppers to stir-fry two dishes last night. Unexpectedly, his daughter ate several more bowls of rice.

If there are any leftovers later, just ask the canteen to collect them all, just in time to improve the food for everyone.

But Zhang An has said so, so this idea probably won't work.

"I still have plenty in my field. If you really want it, go over there and take as much as you want."

Regardless of whether Zhu Yuliang agreed or not, Zhang An pulled him directly out of the office and went to the cafeteria to start a fight.

"Okay, okay, let me go on my own. My old bones can't stand your torment like this."

Zhang An dragged Zhu Yuliang away quickly, making Zhu Yuliang complain repeatedly. He felt that this would be impossible if there was no personal grudge.

"I know it's a toss-up. If you don't call my mother to bother with this matter, I'll never bother you."

The two came to the cafeteria. The food was ready and they were waiting for everyone to get off work.

Although it wasn't time for dinner yet, when they saw it was Zhu Yuliang and Zhang An, the uncle in the cafeteria directly served them two meals.

It took 10 minutes to finish the meal, which happened to be the time to get off work at noon. Zhang An went outside to prepare, and Zhu Yuliang went inside to inform everyone.

After a while, a bunch of people didn't even eat, and they all ran out and surrounded Zhang An.

"Everyone, don't crowd. Come one by one. Those behind will go to eat first. They will definitely be able to buy it. And you guys, hurry up and get food for everyone. Otherwise, what will everyone eat?"

Zhu Yuliang had to speak out, otherwise everyone would stay around.

Even the uncles and aunts in the cafeteria all came out to watch.

They watched as it was time to get off work, but no one was seen eating.

When I ran out to take a look, I realized that everyone was buying groceries. When I saw what was in Zhang An's car, I also came over to join them.

With Lao Zhu maintaining order, the situation was relatively stable.

It took less than an hour to finally send this group of people back.

As they said before, this group of people all wanted to buy more, and everyone bought more than a dozen kilograms.

After all, it will take some time for the pepper to grow up. If you don’t buy it now, you won’t know when it will be next time.
