"Oh, Lao Qi, are you a guest?" at the entrance of the village, a man squinted at Xia Xiaochan and his party.

Old man Qi's eyes flashed and said, "yes, yes, there are guests."

"Oh, where are these guests? I haven't heard of such guests in your family."

Old man Qi gave a careless eye, vaguely said a few words, and took people away.

Old man Qi delivers vegetables to people, and the family doesn't want many dishes, just a few every month. Now the guest invited back to the village doesn't know how many vegetables he wants. He can't easily introduce people. If he wants less vegetables, what can he do if he is cut off?

Xia Xiaochan naturally knew that Lao Qi was so careful. Of course, she wouldn't say it. She only tacitly followed old Qi to the bottom of the village.

The further down, the more pleasant the vegetables look.

This is a mountainous area, which is short of water. It is not suitable for planting rice at all. The whole village has no choice but to plant vegetables.

At this time, old man Qi pointed to a piece of vegetable tunnel, "this piece, that piece of land where green pepper, cucumber, eggplant and cabbage are planted, all belong to my family. My loofah land is on the other side. Do you see the corn land on that side? The one next to sorghum land is also my land."

Xia Xiaochan nodded, "old Qi, your crops are really good."

After hearing this, Qi Lao smiled and said happily, "I've been farming for decades. These jobs in the land can't beat me at all. In the drought that year, other people's seedlings were almost dead. My land had a good harvest under my care."

Under Xia Xiaochan's guidance from time to time, the smile on old man Qi's face became more and more. When he got to the door of old man Qi's house, he found that he didn't know he was talking enough. At ordinary times, he wasn't a talkative person?

"Qi Lao, is this your home?"

As soon as Xia Xiaochan's voice fell, several people ran out of the room. Among them, there were several half-aged children. These children were about the same age as xiaotuanzi. Although their faces and hands were clean, they were timid when looking at people.

When looking at the clothes of the two children, envy and desire flashed on their faces. At the same time, because there were few strangers, they all timidly hid back.

Old man Qi scolded and said, "what are you hiding? Come and see your guests."

Turning to Xia Xiaochan, "these are my grandchildren. I have a son and a daughter. Because there are many children in the eldest son's family and the burden is heavy, hey, there's no way. I can only think of raising children."

Xia Xiaochan nodded faintly and refused to comment on the old man's words. It is common in the countryside to sacrifice the happiness of her daughter's life and use the money earned by her daughter to raise her son's family.

Xia Xiaochan will take it for granted if she is not reborn. The old man Qi's family must coax her daughter and make her feel that she is contributing to her family. Her family will certainly appreciate her in the future.

However, Xia Xiaochan can be sure that when she gets old, there is basically no place for her if the old man's daughter wants to return to this home.

He was old and wasted too much, and his health was much worse than before. At this time, old man Qi's daughter asked for money and no body, and she didn't know what kind of life she would live. It would be bad. Even when she was old, she could only live in the streets and die alone in the wind and rain one day.

Some people's lives seem to be despised by others. At this time, if they are not good for themselves, the end can be imagined.

Old man Qi asked Xia Xiaochan to come in and sit down. The four or five children looked at Xia Xiaochan's two children from time to time, especially when they saw the shoes on their feet, the jade pendant on their waist and the silk clothes on their bodies, their eyes seemed to glow.

Old man Qi's house is clean. Just entering the house, old man Qi hurriedly said, "old woman, go and cut some bacon, kill a chicken, and then take out my precious red bayberry wine. I want to entertain distinguished guests."

In the inner room, a woman with gray hair and deep wrinkles came out. The woman was thin and had no look in her eyes. Xia Xiaochan stood up and nodded to each other. The woman timidly bowed her head and hurried into the kitchen.

Obviously, this family is still headed by old man Qi.

"Dad, I heard you brought rich Hakkas? Who are they? Where did we get such relatives?"

When old man Qi heard this, he said happily, "son, are you back? Come, come, come and see Master Xia. Master Xia wants to buy a lot of fresh vegetables. This is a visit to our family. It's really going to be done. Our family will have a good life."

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a young man with dark skin and sweating came in. When he met Xia Xiaochan, he hung his head in a hurry and saluted Xia Xiaochan respectfully.

Xia Xiaochan hurriedly said, "don't be so polite. In the future, I really want to trouble you."

After a pause, he aligned with the old man again, "Brother Qi, I've seen your vegetable field. There are a lot of vegetables. I guess there are thousands of kilograms. Well, I'll order you a hundred kilograms first. This is a day's goods. After ordering on the first day, I'll let you deliver the vegetables according to the actual demand. In terms of price, it's the same as that of you and others, but I have one condition. After you supply the vegetables in my house, except What do you think of the fact that you can no longer sell vegetables to others when you have already supplied vegetables? "

"This... This... Sir, do you mean that you can buy at least 100 kilograms of vegetables every day in the future?"

"Yes."

"The price will not be less?"

"Yes."

Almost without hesitation, old man Qi immediately agreed, "OK, I agree."

Next, Xia Xiaochan asked about the dishes in old man Qi's house, adding and subtracting garlic, green onions, coriander, eggplant, green beans, potatoes, etc. after this adjustment, he asked for 100 kg of vegetables that can be stored, and another 100 kg of vegetables that can't be stored. Of course, there are no vegetable varieties in old man Qi's house, Xia Xiaochan also asked old man Qi to contact the village, bought it at the same price, and asked the other party to sign this contract for the exclusive supply of vegetables.

These villagers want to make money, but they don't want anything else. After all, at other times, vegetables are rotten in the ground and can't be sold at all.

It's too far from the city. In and out, when they pick vegetables into the city, people who buy vegetables have bought fresh vegetables, and the remaining sporadic buyers don't buy many vegetables. They often pick vegetables all the way home and feed them to pigs.

It's a blind toss.

Xia Xiaochan said clearly that only at the specified time, let them send vegetables to the officials above the village. She directly asked someone to take a carriage to pull vegetables, so that the extra time can be saved.

These villagers are willing to sell so many vegetables a day and calculate that they will have money every day.

After talking, Mrs. Qi said, "the food is ready, distinguished guests, please come to the table."
