Chapter 26 It's Good to Be a Farmer

In the magnificent banquet hall of Yafeng International Hotel, it was very lively with people in fragrant clothes and people drinking glasses.

Shen Qiuqiu and Yang Yanhong pushed the luggage cart past the door of the banquet hall. The ajar door separated the two worlds, and they were clearly separated.

On the way back to the highway, Shen Qiuqiu was driving intently, while Yang Yanhong was sitting in the passenger seat, but she was a little distracted.

Now that the Internet is so developed, she is not someone who has never seen the world.

But seeing it with your own eyes is far more shocking than seeing it on the Internet or TV.

The excitement and luxury she had just glimpsed in the banquet hall shocked her, but at the same time she felt a little inferior and unwilling.

She tilted her head and leaned against the car window, sighing: "Those rich people really know how to enjoy it.

National flower, what do you think the food in that five-star hotel tastes like? And the champagne they drink, does it taste good?"

Shen Qiuqiu recalled carefully, "The food in five-star hotels is mainly exquisitely presented and tastes pretty good, but it is definitely not as delicious as imagined.

As for champagne, it’s a bit like fruity soda, but if you drink too much, you’ll get sick.”

Hearing her reply, Yang Yanhong was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses.

Yes, my old classmate is a top student who graduated from a prestigious university. She is beautiful and has worked in a large company for several years. She must have been to such occasions before.

Thinking of this, she suddenly turned her head to look at Shen Qiuqiu and expressed the question that had been stored in her heart for several months.

"Why did you resign and go back to your hometown in the first place? You said that after studying for so many years, you finally got into a good university and got a foothold in a big city. Why did you come back?

It's great to be a white-collar worker sitting in an office, protected from the wind and rain, with decent work and high wages.

Your former colleague looked inferior to you in every aspect, yet he still managed so well.

You said that if you had not returned to your hometown, you would definitely be more prosperous than her now, and it would be her turn to laugh at you?"

Shen Qiuqiu didn't want to talk in depth about the intrigues and intrigues in his former company.

She pursed her lips and smiled, giving a simple and reasonable reason.

"You have also lived in a big city. The pace of life is too fast and the work pressure is high, which makes you breathless.

In addition, my grandparents are getting old and there is no one around to take care of them.

Xiaoshu will take the college entrance examination again next year. This year is very important for him. I couldn't worry about the whole family, so I came back.

Our hometown has beautiful scenery, and now that the country’s policies have improved, farmers’ incomes have also increased, so it’s good to come back and be a farmer.”

Yang Yanhong nodded. She believed this. After all, she chose to return to her hometown in the countryside because she couldn't stand the fast pace and high pressure of life in big cities.

However, Shen Qiuqiu's situation was different from her own, and she still felt a little sorry for her old classmate.

"If I were you, I would definitely take root in the city and make a name for myself.

Then again, being a farmer is not that easy. You all rely on God to provide you with food. Not to mention the low income, and you are exposed to the wind, sun and rain all day long. With a face like yours, with thin skin and tender flesh, you will not be able to survive for less than half a year. , make sure to peel off the skin.

Hey... don't regret it in the future."

Shen Qiuqiu smiled and shook her head. Since she has chosen this path, she will go on without hesitation and will not regret it.

After spending some extra time in the city today, it was already past 10pm when the two returned to Qinghe Village.

Shen Qiuqiu drove the truck to Yang Yanhong's house and parked it. Wang Lijun heard the sound of the car and came out of the house sleepily.

The grapes in the vineyard had been sold out, and the minivan was temporarily unavailable. Shen Qiuqiu handed the car keys back to Wang Lijun.

In addition to the car keys, there was a thick envelope containing seven thousand yuan.

This is the rent for a small truck for one month and ten days, and Yang Yanhong’s payment for following the truck seven times.

The total was more than 6,000 yuan, and Shen Qiuqiu added more than 100 yuan to give them a round number.

"Yanhong, Brother Lijun, I've been troubling you for more than a month."

Yang Yanhong pushed out a little embarrassedly.

"Oh, why are you so polite? No, we are all old classmates, so we should help each other."

Shen Qiuqiu stuffed the envelope into her pocket without any explanation.

"Brothers must also settle accounts openly. This is what we agreed before. If you want to push it further, I will not be happy."

"Okay, then we're welcome."

Yang Yanhong stopped pushing and reached out to touch the thickness of the envelope. The smile on her face became even brighter.

"Guohua, if you need help in the future, just speak."

Wang Lijun also smiled and said: "Yes, yes, if you want to use the car, just come over and drive. Don't be polite to us."

Yang Yanhong and his wife took Shen Qiuqiu home with a flashlight.

The lights were still on in the Shen family courtyard. Every time Shen Qiuqiu went out to deliver goods, no matter how late she came back, Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen would keep the lights on and wait for her to come home.

The couple must wait until she returns home safely so that the couple can rest assured.

The fragrant bacon porridge was hot in the big pot. Grandma Shen filled a bowl for her granddaughter and peeled a hard-boiled egg for her.

"Eat more. I was so hydrated when I first came back. I've been starving and thin in the past two months."

There is a kind of thinness, which means grandma thinks you are thin.

Shen Qiuqiu pinched her fleshy cheek.

"Grandma, look at my big fleshy cheeks. If I keep eating like this, I will become as fat as our big fat pig."

Grandma Shen was amused by her and narrowed her eyes. She raised her hand and patted her, "You girl, you are talking nonsense."

After eating a late-night snack, Shen Qiuqiu returned to the room. She lay on the bed for a while without feeling sleepy, so she got up in the dark and opened her laptop.

Since selling grapes, she has developed the habit of keeping accounts.

Every income and expense is recorded in a spreadsheet.

The total income from eight acres of grapes is 564,805 yuan, and the cost of grape gift boxes and freight is about 30,000 yuan.

Every time he gets payment for goods, Shen Qiuqiu will transfer half of the money to Grandpa Shen's bank card.

Of the income of more than 500,000 yuan, Shen Qiuqiu took almost 200,000 yuan.

Coupled with the savings she had saved previously, the balance on her bank card now amounts to more than 400,000.

Four hundred thousand is not a lot, but it is not a small amount of money.

How to use this money wisely, Shen Qiuqiu frowned and thought all night.

Fruit growing is the way for Qinghe Village to get rid of poverty and become rich, but it is definitely unrealistic to rashly persuade the villagers to grow fruit together.

Putting aside whether everyone will believe her or not, Shen Qiuqiu cannot bear the risks involved.

As the old saying goes: Farming relies on the weather and luck to make money; if you are lucky, you will make some money, but if you are not lucky, you will lose money.

The cost of fruit cultivation is high and prices fluctuate greatly, which is one of the important reasons why it has not been popularized.
