Chapter 500
In the seventh month of the lunar calendar, it rains more.
But when it doesn’t rain, it’s also hotter.
Today is a sunny day with no clouds in the sky.
Chen Ling and the others were walking on the road, with the small car in front and the large car behind.
Chen Ling and Wang Qingwen were sitting on the Zhaohai Car.
Wang Jusheng and his brother-in-law were sitting on the little sheep transport truck.
Zhao Dahai’s car was also full.
It was something Wang Susu brought to Zhao Dahai and the two sisters-in-law from the Shanmao family.
In addition, of course there is also one for Liang Yuemin’s family.
For example, when I was picking mushrooms in the mountains yesterday, I picked some wild sweet potatoes, which were part of them.
This melon has a very strong fruity aroma.
‘On June 6th, the sweet potatoes are ripe. In July and a half, the sweet potatoes are rotten. ’
At this time, wild sweet potatoes taste just right.
Zhao Dahai sniffed while driving the car: "This thing smells so good, sweet and fragrant. It smells better than pineapple in the car."
"Isn't that right? This thing has another name, it's called Mandi Xiang."
Chen Ling sat in the back row, reached out and grabbed a few, and gave them to Zhao Dahai and his uncle. Share.
Although this wild fruit is called wild sweet potato, it is actually not as big as a sweet potato.
Brown-red, oval, about the size of the thumb belly.
Bring it here to eat freshly.
"Hmm, there are so many good things here. The mountains are like treasures. They have everything."
Zhao Dahai held the steering wheel with one hand and stuffed the fruit into his mouth.
"Fugui, if all these roads are repaired, would there be a chance for such good things to be sold out?"
"Is this something I can say accurately? I want to go out. If you want to sell it, it depends on whether anyone buys it.”
Chen Ling himself had thought about this for a long time, but later he discovered that some wild fruits and other things would only really develop in later generations when e-commerce developed. Get out of the mountains.
At that time, everything was sold online.
Not now. People from east, west, north and south don’t understand each other about many foods, fruits and vegetables.
So there are some things that are okay to brag about.
If you really want to do it, it’s not something you can just slap your head on.
Of course.
Chen Ling obviously thought too far.
Zhao Dahai was very quick-thinking and just said: "Then let's pick up what can be sold and take it out first. My dad and Uncle Zhong can save money to buy sheep after finding Zhihui. What do you think? How many treasures are there waiting for us to develop in the mountains? Once the traffic problem is solved, it will be a huge natural treasure house.”
He and the Shanmao family are not short of money.
I’m not willing to bother with any business.
When he mentioned this, he said he had seen too many good things in the mountains since he met Chen Ling.
Mountain mushrooms, aquatic products, herbs, countless good things.
How much can the mountain people who live in the mountains digest by themselves?
The rest is wasted.
What a shame.
"Yes, Dahai is right. Even ordinary mountain products can make money. Last time Lingzi saw an acquaintance going to the village to collect eggs for sale. They paid him the price and transported them to the city. The profit has doubled..."
It was the first time for my uncle to go on a long trip. At first, he sat in the passenger seat and watched the scenery along the way without saying a word.
Hearing what Zhao Dahai said, he turned around and said: "This is a common thing. There are also wild chestnuts, walnuts, persimmons picked from the mountains and dried persimmons. There are so many more.< br>
At the end of the year, these things are sold well.
They are New Year's goods.
My brothers used to harvest them at the end of autumn every year and keep them until the twelfth lunar month.
It's the same as selling food, you can make a profit. "
"Oh, Brother Qingwen understands it too. ”
Zhao Dahai was interested and started chatting with Wang Qingwen.
Chen Ling also had a few chats.
Boasting all the way. , but it doesn’t feel like a long journey.
But after all, we are traveling in summer. Even if we bring enough water, when we pass through some counties, small towns, or even clear streams, we still can’t help but stop the car to buy some popsicles or drink some cool stream water to relieve the heat. .
It’s only a day’s journey by car from the county seat to the city.
We set off around seven in the morning and will arrive at about eleven or twelve in the evening.
It sounds like we can get there on the same day, it doesn’t seem like it’s that far away.
In fact, in this small amount of time, if you take the expressway, you can go back and forth from Bei'an to Hohhot in Inner Mongolia in two rounds.
Two back and forth.
It can be seen that the road here is difficult and painful to walk on.
Up and down, there are constant bumps and detours everywhere.
However, this situation is so common in this day and age, and everyone is accustomed to walking frequently.
It was Wang Qingwen’s butt that suffered.
It was numb and painful, and I couldn't even walk when I went to the city late at night.
Wang Jusheng and his brother-in-law on the cart were also similar.
His brother-in-law also suffered from motion sickness on the road, which made him feel sleepy and uncomfortable after getting off the car.
I am no longer as energetic as I was in the village.
“Is this our city? What about the statue of the sacred cow? Why don’t you see it?”
Wang Qingwen rubbed his buttocks and stretched his neck to look around near the stone lion in front of the market.
"Brother, this is a vegetable market, and we are here to sell vegetables. The sacred cow statue in the large square near the river beach is used to suppress flooding, not to protect the vegetable market."
When Chen Ling saw his usually serious uncle showing such a funny look, he was both amused and speechless at the same time.
Hurry and pull him away from the stone lion in front of the market gate.
In the dark at night, people will urinate and defecate near the lions, which can easily cause trouble.
"The morning market doesn't start to be crowded until two or three o'clock. Now find a place to sleep for a while. After the vegetables are sold out, go home to catch up on your sleep."
Chen Ling pointed not far away, next to many vegetable transport trucks. There were people spreading their things and sleeping soundly.
Little Sheep and Wang Jusheng now took off the canvas cover of the transport truck to let the vegetables breathe, and then took down some urea bags, mats and other things for everyone to spread on the ground.
In summer, I don’t have to pay much attention to it. I spread out on the floor and go to sleep directly.
The little sheep is used to this kind of schedule and is not sleepy.
Chen Ling and Chen Ling, who were equally energetic, were chatting by the car, waiting for the market to open.
During this period, vehicles of all sizes were still coming one after another, some carrying various goods, and some empty for wholesale purchases.
Not far away, some distance from the old city vegetable market, is a livestock market.
It is extremely convenient to provide raw meat to the vegetable market.
It was also full of vehicles at this time.
However, the livestock market opens late, and there are no people there until five or six in the morning. The lights are now as dark as the vegetable market. Some people gather together and chat quietly, some sleep beside and behind the cars, and some are wandering around with their hands behind their backs, looking here and there, looking here and there, and looking closer at some goods. .
The three of Wang Qingwen couldn’t sleep even after lying down. In such a big vegetable market, there are so many vehicles coming and going. From time to time, the strong light of the headlights comes over and then stops. Extinguished on the side, waiting as well as they did.
After watching it, I felt a little fresh and indescribably excited.
It feels like seeing so much of the world at once.
Then the three of them stopped sleeping and got up and walked around. Grandma Liu just looked around when she entered the Grand View Garden, and was regarded as a thief several times.
“Tsk, tsk, how many cars are here? How many ten thousand does it cost to afford such a big car? No wonder people watch it closely.”
Zhang Erluzi arrived After going to the city, my face became dull and my words became dull.
Little Sheep told him: "It's not just about looking at the car, the key is to look at the cargo and the fuel tank."
Wang Qingwen was also excited. He sat with Chen Ling and said No wonder some people put in so much effort to collect eggs from the mountains and bring them to the market to sell. With such a big market and so many cars pulling in, how could they worry about selling and how could they not make money?
Only Zhao Dahai was very familiar with them in the city, and he didn't care about them. After driving for a day, he just lay in the car and fell asleep with the door open.
I originally thought I would have to wait until the market opens.
Unexpectedly, due to the open canvas on the car, the lights on the car full of vegetables can be seen. Many vendors who came in the early morning saw it, got off the car, and came up to ask questions.
One bid after another became more and more anxious, as if they were afraid of being snatched away by others.
“What to do? What to do?”
"Brother-in-law, the bid is so high, why don't you sell it quickly? There are so many cars waiting over there!"
"Don't panic, don't panic, listen to your rich brother, when he says to sell it Let’s sell it anytime.”
Although Wang Jusheng was trying to persuade his brother-in-law not to panic, his body was actually shaking even more.
Grandma, the people in the city are crazy.
Purslane, which is free in the village, can be sold for more than one pound per pound in the city.
It’s understandable that beans, eggplants, etc. are a little more expensive.
Purslane is a wild vegetable that grows randomly in the fields. In the eyes of farmers, it is not much different from grass.
Ordinary vegetables and wild vegetables are like this.
The mountain mushroom is even more scary.
After Chen Ling brought a basket down, the group of people hit it with flashlights, and the price they quoted made people tremble.
Moreover, the prices of several kinds of mountain mushrooms are different.
One is more expensive than the other.
It is truly more expensive than meat.
At this time, when they were all confused, they saw Chen Ling waving his hands: "No, you are lying about the price. Let's wait until the market opens.
We Would rather sell them in bulk
Sold in pieces for a higher price. "
Chen Ling disliked them for lowering the price of wild vegetables too hard, and then wanted to drive people away.
"No, no, no, no, don't worry, brother, there must be comings and goings when doing business. It's easy to discuss something. "
"Yes, yes, you see so many vegetable trucks are still rushing here. The market will open soon, and they won't be able to take care of you. ”
A group of people started shouting, and soon the vegetable cart next to them had already negotiated a higher price before the market opened.
They also shouted.
Most of the cars in the market are here to buy vegetables, and there are not many selling vegetables.
Because they are closer or have been prepared in advance, more of those people will be sent to the hardest-hit areas.
Here, there are more people transporting livestock.
Pigs, cattle, sheep and donkeys.
So these dealers went shopping and returned to Chen Ling.
The same principle holds true. The land in mountainous areas is small and it is not enough to grow food. Unlike the plain areas where there are special vegetable bases, it is easy to collect a cart of vegetables and transport them one cart at a time.
Even if you can receive a cart of vegetables in the mountains, it will take a long time. For example, in Kuliu County, Tongshi County, and Wangba City near Lingyun, there are few things in the mountains, and they are not as good as those close to each other. The Wuyun Mountain and Lutou Mountain in the Daqin Mountains are so rich that even if you want to dig up some mountain mushrooms, you won’t be able to get enough.
“Lingzi, I see that those people have a lot of taro and arrowheads on their tractors. They are quite fresh and in good quality. Why don’t these people want them after looking at them?”
My uncle sneaked out quietly to inquire about the situation. When he came back, he took Chen Ling aside and muttered.
"Brother, they must be right. After the flood, many grains and vegetables will be destroyed. Only this taro and arrowhead harvest will be great.
If you use these things to make up the money, you won't be able to sell them for money."
Chen Ling shook his head and smiled. No one is a fool. They can use wild vegetables to make up the numbers. Others who live close to the water will also use their brains to think about the things in the water.
Unfortunately, it won’t work in flood-prone years.
"Brother, don't worry about anything else now. You first learn how to negotiate prices, and then call the second brother. The business of our three brothers will be of great use."
After watching Chen Ling finish speaking, he turned around and negotiated prices with the vendors who were collecting vegetables.
A few words raised the price by several levels.
Between these words, there is a difference of several thousand yuan or even tens of thousands of yuan.
When my uncle saw this, he couldn't help but his heart beat faster and his heart surged.
Grandma’s business has grown, and it really feels like it can turn everything upside down with just a few clicks.
I don’t know who my brother-in-law learned his price negotiation skills from.
What a coincidence, they have just agreed on the price.
“Clang, Dang, Dang——”
The door is open, the lights are bright, and the vegetable market is finally open.
Everyone who was sleeping jumped up.
Some, like Chen Ling and others, had already made an agreement, pushing the big scale and shouting "Gululu" to weigh it.
Little Sheep was guarding the car, Chen Ling led people under the car to tinker with the vegetables and weigh them, and Wang Qingwen held a notebook and kept accounts with a serious face.
Under the light, looking around, there are figures sweating around the vehicles, busy and busy.
Finally, at about five o'clock in the morning, the weighing ceremony was completed, the money and goods were cleared, and everything was settled.
Clutching the heavy amount of money in their broken schoolbags, Wang Jusheng and Wang Qingwen still felt unreal.
"A cart of vegetables costs more than 60,000 yuan. I seem to be dreaming."
"How can we win together? What am I talking about? Follow the wealth and make a lot of money. This time in the village, no one will dare to look down on you in the future. , your father and your mother are still regretting it.”
“Yes, brother-in-law, the mushrooms I picked are worth nearly a thousand yuan.
If you come here a few more times, my family will become a household worth ten thousand yuan, right? Hey, what’s so good about a household worth ten thousand yuan?”
“Pfft, what’s wrong with you, you fool?” Are you really a fool?”
"Ignore him, I'm afraid this kid is so happy that he goes crazy."
Everyone was talking about him, but actually his face was also glowing, and even the little sheep was happy and walked a little swaying.
But when we set off to have breakfast, we just left the old city and arrived at a breakfast stall near the river beach.
The little sheep walked up to Chen Ling and whispered: "Uncle Fugui, it seems that someone is following us. They followed us right after we came out of the vegetable market."
"What, Someone is following, here to rob?”
After all, Zhang Er was young and had never experienced the world, and his face turned pale with fright.
When Wang Jusheng saw this, he frowned and kicked him: "What are you yelling about? Let's see how promising you are. Do you still want to follow your brother Fugui in the future?"
Chen Ling pretended to be unintentional and walked around. He looked at it, then walked to the back of the car to urinate. When he came back, he said: "Don't be anxious yet. Maybe they saw that we shipped a lot of goods in the market and wanted to compete with the car to grab business."
