Chapter 42
After driving away Hu Yaoqian, Du Huashun sat down worriedly.

"Son, this Hu Yaoqian is notoriously greedy for money. He is eyeing our family this time, and he will definitely not let it go. He is the village head. You will develop in the countryside in the future. If you offend him, he will definitely give us money." If you make a trip, do you want to give him some?"

Du Huashun said deeply.

"Dad, what are you talking about? We are seeking development in an upright manner, and we must not succumb to this unhealthy trend. If we send him money, wouldn't that encourage this unhealthy trend? And Hu Yaoqian is greedy, he knows we The family has money, if you give him a few thousand this time, he will dare to ask for tens of thousands next time, it is simply a bottomless pit that cannot be filled."

Du Haifeng firmly disagreed.

Du Huashun also understood this truth. He sighed, but he was afraid that his son's development in the countryside would not be too smooth in the future.

"Old man, I am firmly supporting our son this time. Hu Yaoqian is greedy and has a bad conscience. Our family will never give in to that unhealthy trend."

Zhao Cuilian came from the kitchen.

He was in the kitchen before, and she heard what happened in the main room very clearly, and she was already full of anger.

Why should my family share the hard-earned money with you?If the lion opens his mouth, it can easily be 100 million, so go ahead and dream.

Seeing that the daughter-in-law was rarely on the side of his son this time, Du Huashun couldn't laugh or cry.

"Dad, don't worry, we are sitting upright, there is nothing to worry about."

Du Haifeng comforted him.

Du Huashun could only nod his head.

Not long after, the panting Wangcai came back, with a sullen and excited expression on his face, and surrounded Du Haifeng in all kinds of intimacy as if asking for credit.

Seeing Wangcai panting heavily, it is estimated that Hu Yaoqian is not much better.

"It's a good job. I'll give you another meal later."

Du Haifeng smiled and patted Wangcai's dog's head.

Wangcai Gou's eyes suddenly brightened.

Soon, breakfast was ready, and the family ate together and chatted casually.

"Now is the ripening season for apples. Every family in the village should be busy harvesting apples. This year is our family's free time again."

Du Huashun laughed.

In previous years, my own orchards had no harvest. Although this year was surprising, with more than 100 good fruits, they have been sold out by Du Haifeng. Others are busy with farming, and my family has nothing to do.

"I heard that this year's fruit market is very bad. In previous years, the apples in our Qingshan Village could be sold for two yuan a catty. Merchants from all over the country came to buy them like crazy. During dinner yesterday, some villagers said that the price was eight cents, which is very expensive." Few merchants are interested in it, and even if there are occasional merchants, they still have to pick and choose."

Zhao Cuilian said.

"The price dropped from [-] yuan to [-] cents. It's a cliff-like drop. Why is the fruit market so bad this year?"

Du Haifeng was surprised.

Apples in Qingshan Village are well-known throughout the country and have always been very popular. In previous years, during the apple harvest season, the fruit wholesale market in the town would gather merchants of all sizes from all over the country.

"It's not just the apples in our Qingshan Village. The market for apples across the country is very sluggish. Due to the general environment, we fruit farmers can't do anything about it."

Du Huashun sighed: "The high and low prices are not too fatal. The key is the merchants. It used to be a seller's market. The apples in our Qingshan Village were snapped up as soon as they went on the market. There is no need to worry about selling them. Now the market is not good. It is a buyer's market." , there are fewer merchants, and it will be miserable if the apples cannot be sold.”

"That's right. We fruit farmers don't have cold storage, so we don't have the ability to store fruit for a long time. If we can't sell it, it's all in our own hands. After a year of hard work, it will be in vain in the end, and we will lose all our money."

Zhao Cuilian felt the same way.

Du Haifeng ate in silence. The market was up and down, with ups and downs. This is a normal thing. Before reading the news, I often saw that the vegetables of a vegetable farmer in a certain place were unsalable, all of which were still in the ditch, and bananas were unsalable , unsalable sugar cane and so on.

very common.

It's just that he didn't expect that the Qingshan Village fruit, which has always been very popular, would encounter such a predicament.

Farmers are really not easy. They work hard to earn some money to support their families. When the market is not good, their hard work may be in vain.

Du Haifeng secretly sighed.

Zhao Cuilian secretly took a look at Du Haifeng, her son is passionate about starting a business in the countryside, the current situation is a warning to him, maybe it will make him come to his senses and stop this crazy idea.

"Haifeng, hurry up and eat. After dinner, go to your sister-in-law Wenqing's house and ask her when the fruit will be harvested. It is not easy for her to manage the orchard as a woman. When it comes to harvesting the fruit, she is even more busy. We Idle is also idle, help her take away the fruit."

Du Hua walked along.

"okay."

Du Haifeng responded.

Soon after the family finished eating, Du Haifeng greeted his parents and went out to Zhou Wenqing's house.

A few steps away, Du Haifeng came to Zhou Wenqing's house. At this time, Zhou Wenqing had already prepared the items needed to harvest the fruit and was about to go to the orchard.

"Sister-in-law, your family is harvesting fruit today."

Du Haifeng said with a smile.

"Yes, the fruit market is not very good this year. When all the fruits come down, the situation will probably be even worse. My sister-in-law plans to sell the fruits as soon as possible, so that I can save my worries."

Zhou Wenqing said.

This year's market conditions are surprisingly bad, and even merchants are pitifully small, making it difficult to sell fruits. Zhou Wenqing, just to be on the safe side, it's better to sell the high and low ones.

"That's fine, my dad asked me to ask when your family will harvest. My family has nothing to do and I plan to help you harvest the fruit. Then I will tell my parents when I go back now, and we will go to the orchard together later."

Du Haifeng said.

Zhou Wenqing was moved: "Then thank you and uncle and aunt."

Harvesting fruit is not easy, especially for a woman like Zhou Wenqing. If she is alone, even if she works day and night, it will take a few days. It is hard to imagine.

Thanks to Zhou Wenqing, Du Haifeng just smiled, and then quickly returned home.

When Du Huashun and Zhao Cuilian got the news, they immediately got ready, and even Du Xiaoyu changed into his clothes, bouncing around and joining in.

"Okay, let's go."

Du Huashun smiled and said, he has been bedridden for several years, and now he is finally able to work in the fields again. I really didn't expect that his body could still exert some residual heat and reflect the value of life. He is psychologically contented.

Du Haifeng's family locked the door, and Zhou Wenqing came out with a cart.

Du Haifeng took the initiative to go up to pick up the cart.

"Uncle, Auntie, you have taken good care of me on weekdays, but now I have to ask you to help me collect the fruit. I don't know how to thank you."

Zhou Wenqing was moved.

"Stupid boy, we are neighbors, we should help each other, no thanks."

Zhao Cuilian laughed.

"Wenqing, I heard that merchants are very popular now. Have you contacted them? Since we have collected the fruits, we have to sell them as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult to sell when all the fruits come down."

Du Hua walked along.

 The ranking has improved, thank you for your support, and continue to ask for votes.
