After listening to his words, Cui Saner gave a thumbs up repeatedly.
"Master, you are right, these untouchables do not deserve to eat such a good fruit. I will take people to the county seat early tomorrow morning."
When Chen Xiaobei returned home, he was also full of confidence. Taking advantage of his lunch break, he went to the village guard team and made a notice. In the afternoon, he needed five people to go up the mountain with him to carry the fruit. For wages, he could take away ten kilograms.
Fruit, or give five copper coins.
When they heard about this treatment, of course everyone rushed to get there.
Regarding the village protection team members, Chen Xiaobei treated them equally and selected five according to the order of registration.
A backpack can hold about 70 to 80 kilograms, and if you add the six of you, you can carry almost 500 kilograms, which is enough to sell the next day.
After waking up from his nap, Chen Xiaobei was about to go into the mountains. Cui Hongyu once again proposed to go with him, but Chen Xiaobei ruthlessly refused.
"No, you don't need to go up the mountain anymore. I will just take them there."
"You." Cui Hongyu wanted to say but couldn't.
Looking at Cui Hongyu's apple-like red face, Chen Xiaobei suddenly understood.
Oops, I am so stupid, but I have already chosen five people to go into the mountains together today, so if I want to unite with nature and man again, I have to wait until next time.
Chen Xiaobei took everyone on a familiar road and returned before dark.
Chen Sanqiu felt happy when he saw that they had picked so many fruits again. What does this mean? It means that these fruits are marketable.
This is enough to earn yourself a favor in front of Dana Cui.
Chen Xiaobei set out early the next morning.
At the first stop, he rushed to Xiaojia Town. After all, Xiaojia Town had a large sales volume. According to Feng Xiaoyue's estimate, Chen Xiaobei left almost 400 kilograms.
Of course, Chen Xiaobei also agreed with her to settle the bill when the goods are delivered the next day.
This leaves one hundred kilograms left.
Chen Xiaobei then turned around and rushed to the county town. According to his plan, Lao Wu would leave thirty or forty pounds of the hundred pounds for retail sales, and the rest would be sold in inns and restaurants.
The market is very lively today, with people coming and going.
It was not far from Lao Wu's stall, and there were so many people noisily surrounding it that it was hard to see what was going on inside.
Chen Xiaobei smiled and jumped off the donkey cart to greet Lao Wu.
"Old Wu, how is business today?"
But Old Wu sighed slightly, "You can still laugh."
After saying this, he pointed to the side and said, "They came here early in the morning and they are selling the same kind of fruits you brought."
Why is this still happening?
Chen Xiaobei thrust the donkey's reins into Lao Wu's hands and rushed forward quickly.
In the crowd, Cui San and two long-time workers were working hard to sell.
Cui San was also very smart. He cut a few apples into small pieces with a knife and let everyone taste them.
Everyone who has tasted it is a rare person and will buy some of it.
Chen Xiaobei still knew Cui San. When he saw that he was from Cuijiazhuang, Chen Xiaobei felt inexplicably disappointed.
Of course, having said that, I can't stop others from going to the mountains to pick fruits.
Back in front of Lao Wu's vegetable stall, Chen Xiaobei had already looked away, "Old Wu, what's all the fuss about? Just like you sell vegetables, what you sell will of course be sold by others."
"He sells his, you sell yours, whatever you sell is yours, and you will give me the money later."
Hearing what Chen Xiaobei said, Lao Wu finally gave up his worries and said with a smile, "Okay, then it will be as you said."
Leaving thirty kilograms of apples for Lao Wu, Chen Xiaobei took the rest and rushed to the restaurant. Since there were competitors, the restaurant had to quickly seize the market.
Fortunately, he didn't bring much, so he went to several restaurants and all were sold out. Chen Xiaobei went to the market again to see how Lao Wu was selling.
Seeing him coming from a distance, Old Wu waved, "Brother, come on, come on."
Seeing Lao Wu's excitement, Chen Xiaobei knew that this was possible, and as expected half of the apple left for Lao Wu had been removed.
"A few people over there sold out, and when I shouted over here, they all came around, so naturally I sold out very quickly."
The two of them were talking here, but Chen Xiaobei didn't notice at all. Not far away, Cui San was staring at him with a sullen face.
It turned out that Cui San was about to leave with his people after selling out, but Lao Wu shouted out, saying that he also had fruit here, and named it Apple.
How could a vegetable seller have fruits from Qingniu Mountain?
Cui San hid in the dark and observed. By coincidence, he happened to see Chen Xiaobei and Lao Wu talking passionately.
That's what happened.
After figuring out the truth of the matter, Cui San hurried back to report.
"Master, there is no problem in selling the fruit. People are willing to buy it for a penny per catty. But I found that Chen Xiaobei from the next village also made fruit and sold it in the city."
Yeah?
Cui Dana frowned, "Chen Xiaobei is the son-in-law of Cui Fugui's family?"
"Yes, that's him!"
"Master, you think it's strange. Since I married Cui Hongyu, this guy has risen through the ranks and suddenly became the head of Hetou Village."
"Isn't it strange? Hetou Village is full of mud-legged people. If Cui Fugui slips a little between his fingers, Chen Xiaobei will be able to walk sideways in the village."
When Cui San heard this, hehehe, he laughed.
"The master is right. He, Cui Fugui, only saved a few hard-earned money by practicing medicine. How can he compare with you?"
Cui Dana snorted coldly, "Isn't Chen Xiaobei also eyeing that fruit forest? Call all the long-term workers tomorrow, by the way, and find a few short-term workers to pick as many as they can."
"Pick all the fruits for me as quickly as possible."
Cui San nodded repeatedly and agreed hastily.
"Master, don't worry, you can take a look at it tomorrow."
After lunch and a full nap, Chen Xiaobei still found five people to follow him into the mountains to carry apples.
Just as he was about to go out, he saw Chen Xiaowen supporting a gray-haired old lady walking toward him. She shouted from a distance, "Head of the house, chief of the house, you have to make the decision for me."
"
This is Chen Dayong's old mother.
Chen Xiaobei hurriedly took a few steps to greet him, "What's wrong with you, old man?"
The old lady said with a tearful voice, "Dayong went into the mountains two days ago and he hasn't come back yet. I don't know what happened to him."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaobei slapped his head. Yes, two days ago, he arranged for Chen Dayong to accompany Xiong Fei and the others into the mountains.
"Why haven't you come back yet?"
"Yes, you said that he would have three advantages and two disadvantages, then how would I live?"
The more she talked, the sadder she became, and the old lady wiped away tears.
Calculating the time, Chen Dayong only walked for two days. If he walked to the top of the mountain and came back, this time would not be enough.
Seeing that Chen Xiaobei didn't speak, the old lady knelt down with a grunt.
Yes, Chen Xiaobei knew that even if he didn't want to go into the mountain, he couldn't do it. In order to give the old lady peace of mind, he had to take people into the mountain immediately.
Chen Xiaobei asked several village protection team members to go to the mountains to pick fruits first, while he hurried to his homestead, where he was building a house for himself in Lidong.
