Chapter 207

"Uncle Lizheng, we are from Yejia Village. We mainly heard that there are many mulberries in your village. We want to buy mulberries from you."

After getting off the bullock cart, Ling Xi went directly to He Lizheng, and kindly told him the purpose of their coming here.

He Lizheng was a little startled when he heard Ling Xi's words. You must know that mulberry fruit is not easy to sell, and no one eats it. They never thought about making money.

Hejia Village has raised silkworms for generations, and the mulberry trees are all old trees. The technology handed down from the ancestors, the mulberry trees only supply the needs of silkworms.

The children in the village think that the mulberry fruit is not bad, and sometimes they will pick two to taste. The adults basically don't eat it very much, mainly because they think it is not good to eat it with a mouth full of black.

He Lizheng has been working as a Lizheng for more than [-] years, and no one has ever asked if the mulberry fruit is sold here. He was a little dumbfounded when he heard Ling Xi say that he was here to buy mulberry fruit.

"Girl, these mulberries are not for sale. If you want to eat them, go pick them. There are plenty of them on the trees."

After realizing it, He Lizheng spoke to Ling Xi, but He Lizheng never thought about how many mulberries Ling Xi and the others would buy.

After saying this, He Lizheng waved to the children under the big tree at the entrance of the village.

"Loulou, come here, take my sister to pick the fruit, go to the century-old tree to pick the fruit, the fruit there is sweet."

When the children under the tree heard this, they had never seen such a beautiful sister as Ling Xi, so they hurried to Ling Xi and took Ling Xi's hand.

A pure smile appeared on the child's face, and He Lizheng also smiled in relief, then turned around and got ready to go to work.

"Hey, Uncle Lizheng, don't go, I have something else to do."

Seeing Li was about to leave, Ling Xi hurriedly greeted her, but the child smiled so much that she almost forgot her purpose of coming here.

"Girl, what else is there? I have to go to the ground."

Li Zheng asked suspiciously, Ling Xi led the child towards Li Zheng, and spoke eagerly.

"Uncle Lizheng, it's like this. I want to buy mulberry fruits from your village. I can buy as many as I can, but we have few people. I hope that people in the village will pick the mulberry fruits and sell them to us. I will pay for everyone's labor costs. You see, May I?"

If it was said that Lizheng was surprised when Ling Xi said that he bought the mulberry fruits just now, then when Ling Xi said that he bought all the mulberry fruits, Lizheng's expression can be described as panic.

"Yeah, girl, I, you..."

Lizheng looked like an honest person, but Ling Xi couldn't even finish his sentence when he opened his mouth like this.

"Why do you buy so many fruits? This mulberry fruit can't be kept. It will rot after a day."

Li Zheng tried his best to persuade her, thinking that Ling Xi had a twitch in her head, that's why she said she wanted to buy such mulberries.

Looking at the girl in front of him and the young man behind him, Lizheng also knew that everyone was from the countryside, and it was not easy, and he was afraid that Ling Xi would lose money if he didn't know the specific conditions of the mulberries and they would all rot when he bought them back.

"Uncle, I buy mulberry fruit for wine, so it won't be wasted, and I have a lot of demand.

If possible, I hope to sign a contract with the village. I will let people collect the mulberry fruits in the village every year, so that the village will also have an additional income.

Uncle, look, is it possible? If so, let's sit down and talk about the price of mulberry fruit. "

Ling Xi's words moved He Lizheng very much. The village is full of honest peasants who rely on ancestral sericulture techniques for a living.

The mulberry trees left by the ancestors are also wealth. Now that someone has come to collect this wealth, it can make the life of the villagers better. How could He Lizheng disagree.
