BXBX NOVEL Chapter 411 - 411: Getting Busy at Dark
As soon as the sky turned dark, the Shi Family vegetable shed began to get busy!
There were close to 20 people in the field, and the division of labor was clear. The 6,000 catties of vegetables were quickly picked!
After loading onto the vehicle, it took four to five hours to reach the destination.
Shi Hangyu looked at the time and said, “It’s past eleven o’clock at night. It’s similar to what my sister predicted. When these vegetables are transported to South City, it’ll be around four or five o’clock! It’s just in time to be fresh!”
Eldest Uncle nodded, but he was still worried. “Boss, there are so many vegetables. If the hotel can’t sell them all, will they have to return them?”
Shi Hangyu smiled and said, “Dad, don’t worry! Actually, we should be more worried about what to do if our family doesn’t have enough vegetables.”
Eldest Uncle smiled and said, “Why did you change after you went to the provincial city this time? You weren’t so confident in the past!”
Shi Hangyu said, “That’s because I’m confident in our family’s vegetables! Dad, you didn’t see that bunch of people fighting to buy our family’s vegetables. It was really lively!
“I heard that those people in South City are either rich or noble. What delicacies have they not eaten before? They fought until their faces turned red just to order our family’s vegetables!”
When Eldest Uncle heard this, he seemed to be deep in thought!
Eldest Uncle asked, “But our family’s vegetables are so expensive? Can they accept it?”
He was born and raised in the countryside, so his knowledge was limited!
Shi Hangyu smiled and said, “Dad, don’t worry! Sister said that most people who go to a five-star hotel to eat are not short of money. What they lack is the process of enjoying themselves!
“In our eyes, the price of our vegetables will be very high, but in the eyes of those rich people, it’s not worth mentioning at all! Sister said that in the later stages, the price of these vegetables will increase!”
“Ha, will the price go up?” Eldest Uncle was obviously a little surprised. “The cheapest cabbage is already six dollars a catty. If it goes up again, what price will it go up to?”
Shi Hangyu shook his head and said, “That’s hard to say! That which is rare is dear! The fewer of something, the more valuable they are! Our family has planted up to 60 acres of land. If we sell a few thousand catties a day, we’ll sell them all very quickly. It’s hard to say when there would be fewer and fewer things later on!”
Eldest Uncle thought of a question and asked, “Did the hotel agree? Didn’t you sign a contract? Then the price can be changed at will?”
Shi Hangyu said, “Dad, you don’t know about this, right? The price of vegetables varies flexibly according to the season. This is written in the contract!”
Eldest Uncle thought about it and said, “That’s indeed the case!”
The price of vegetables was not as stable as the price of rice. Its price fluctuated at all times, changing every season, month, and even every day!
When the Shi family was picking and shipping vegetables, many people in the village came to watch the commotion!
“The vegetables arc sold!”
“That’s right! I heard that it’s at least 6,000 catties a day! They are selling them to those big hotels in the provincial city!”
“Tsk tsk, oh my god. I used to think that their vegetables were sold to the county city. I didn’t expect them to be sold directly to the provincial city!”
“I heard that this was Gu Qingming’s idea!”
“It should be her idea! How can we country bumpkins think of selling vegetables to the provincial city! I wonder if the price of these vegetables is high?”
