Chapter Thirty-Three: Let Them Pick Fruit on the Mountain Th
ears, and pain throbbed across her forehead. Yang Fan slowly opened her eyes. All she saw were many people surrounding her, looking down at her with malicious intent in their eyes.Where is this Wasn't...Grandma Xu called Yang Fan. The phone rang twice before the other party answered.
"Hello, Grandma Xu," Yang Fan's voice came over along with the sound of the engine and the howling wind.
Grandma Xu asked her, "Yang Fan, how many people have come to buy your loquats here When are you coming back"
"We're already on our way back," Yang Fan said, "If they're not in a hurry, let them wait a while. If they are, you can give them a bag and let them go up the mountain to pick some themselves. Just help them weigh it when they're done."
Then Grandma Xu asked her, "How much do you sell your loquats for per kilogram"
Yang Fan replied, “Sixty-six for one jin, and sixty-one for over one jin.”
"Okay."
Grandma Xu didn't think Yang Fan's loquats were expensive like Grandpa Li. She had been to Beijing with her grandson before, where she had eaten loquats that cost over 100 yuan per kilogram.
And those loquats, even though they don't taste as good as Yang Fan's, can still be sold for such a high price. Yang Fan sells them for sixty yuan per jin, and she doesn't think it's anything special.
Grandma Xu hung up the phone and walked out of the courtyard to Wu Zhenghao and the others. She said, "Yang Fan is on her way back. If you're not in a hurry, just wait here for a while. If you're in a hurry, you can go up the mountain and pick some. I'll weigh them for you when you're done."
"Her loquat (Chinese apricot) costs 66 yuan per kilogram, and it's 60 yuan for a kilogram or more."
Grandma Zhou, Grandma Yang, and Aunt Zhang were all shocked by this price. They didn't know that Yang Fan's loquats sold for so much!
Grandma Yang blurted out, “The loquats from Yang Fan’s family are so expensive!”
Grandma Xu spoke up for Yang Fan, saying, “The loquats from Yang Fan’s family are delicious. Where could such tasty loquats be expensive”
Grandma Zhou looked heartbroken, “She gave me a whole pot of these expensive loquats yesterday.”
That pot of flowers must be worth quite a lot of money.
"Well, she sent a whole basket to my house too."
“I also got one for my family.”
Three people's faces were filled with sympathy. How much does this cost
Grandma Xu's eyes were almost shut from smiling, her voice filled with pride, "Yang Fan sent one to every household in the village."
The Wu family envied them, being able to live in the same village as Yang Fan and eat such delicious fruit for free.
"Let's go up the mountain to pick some ourselves while we wait for her, shall we" Grandpa Wu was eager to get started. He couldn't wait for Yang Fan to arrive and wanted to go up the mountain himself to take a look at those loquats.
"Alright, go on."
Grandma Xu turned and went into the house to get them some loquats. As she passed Xiao Lin, she asked her, "Little girl, would you like to buy some loquats"
Xu Grandma didn't want to miss the opportunity to promote Yang Fan.
Xiao Lin thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then give me a bag. I'll go pick some."
She was also a little curious how delicious this 61-pound persimmon could be.
Grandma Xu: "Okay!"
She went into the house, and everyone had a bag prepared for them. Then they took them up the mountain to pick loquats.
Grandma Zhou and Grandma Yang couldn't go because their legs and feet weren't convenient. Zhang went instead. She thought that since Yang Fan wasn't home, she had to help watch over things.
A group of people climbed to the top of the mountain and got a close look at the golden loquats. The air was thick with the rich fragrance of loquats.
The loquat tree isn't very tall, so you can easily pick the loquats at the top.
Mr. Wu excitedly and carefully picked a loquat, peeled it open and ate it. The juice exploded in his mouth, sweet and delicious. He closed his eyes in enjoyment, "This is the taste."
Xiaolin picked one and also wanted to try it, but thinking of how expensive this loquat was, she asked the old lady Xu beside her, "Grandma, can I try one"
"Of course, you can all try some," Grandma Xu said, changing the subject. "But you can only have one or two each, after all, this isn't my own loquat tree, and I can't make the rules."
Everyone nodded in understanding, the Wu family including Xiao Lin only tasted one or two before stopping.
Xiao Lin ate one, and was instantly conquered by the loquat. Holding the bag of Moluo family's loquats that Grandma Xu gave her, she began to pick the loquats.
The Wu family also began to pick loquats. Since Wu Yuanyuan was too short, she couldn't reach the loquats on top, so Wu Zhenghao had to hold her to pick them.
Grandma Xu watched them picking fruits from the sidelines and didn't forget to recommend other fruits to them, "Over there across the field is Yang Fan's strawberry patch. His strawberries are big and sweet. You can go take a look over there too."
"And there are also lychees, cherries, and plums. You can all go take a look. When they are ripe, you can pick them to try. If you like them, buy some."
She had the air of wanting to push all of Yang Fan's fruit out.
"Yang Fan is really diligent. He came back these few days and cleared all the grass on the mountain."
Zhang Shen looked at the clean floor and praised Yang Fan, "Young people can still do it."
She didn't say anything, and Grandma Xu hadn't noticed yet. Looking at the fruit trees, all free of weeds, her eyes were filled with heartache.
This child has been through a lot.
It's too hard for a little girl to take care of so many fruit trees.
I'll cook some more meat for the child tonight. They deserve a good meal after working so hard.
"Daddy, I'm going to pick strawberries," Wu Yuanyuan and Wu Zhenghao said.
Here the loquat tree is too tall, she wants to pick strawberries.
Wu Zhenghao: "Good."
Auntie Zhang took her son and daughter to pick strawberries, while the others continued picking loquats.
On one side, the fruit picking activity was in full swing. On the other side, Yang Fan, the unfortunate child who was being remembered by Grandma Xu, quickly returned home on his newly purchased tricycle.
She drove her car into the yard and turned to go up the mountain to see those picking loquats.
"Grandma Xu."
Grandma Xu saw her come back and waved at her eagerly, "Come here quickly, you're finally back."
As Yang Fan approached, Grandma Xu leaned in her ear and whispered, “Those people picked a lot of loquats. They also picked strawberries and some of everything else.”
Her face was filled with joy, she was truly happy for Yang Fan.
These fruit trees have been losing money for so many years, now that they are making a profit, she can't be unhappy, can she
Yang Fan's eyes softened slightly, "Well, thank you."
"Big sister, could you please get me another bag My bag is full."
Mr. Wu walked out of the loquat grove with a bag full of loquats and, seeing Yang Fan who had suddenly appeared, he tentatively asked him a question.
"Excuse me, are you Yang Fan"
The girl in front of me was wearing only a simple T-shirt and jeans. She was tall and thin, with a plain face that was very beautiful. Her expression was nonchalant, and she radiated a unique, mysterious aura.
Mr. Wu guessed that she must be Yang Fan.
Yang Fan nodded. "How many more bags do you need I'll bring them up for you."
Grandpa Wu thought for a moment, "Just two more will do. My wife wants to pick some other fruits."
He mainly wants to talk to Yang Fan about cooperation on large-scale purchases, and I won't go into more detail now.
Yang Fan: "Okay, just a moment, I'll get it right away."
"Alright, thank you for your help."
Xiao Lin, who was standing by the side, saw Yang Fan return. A glimmer of excitement flashed across her face.
Yang Fan also noticed her, gave her a slight smile and turned to go down the mountain.n though this quality of loquat is relatively cheap at 61 jin, there are quite a few middleman markups included in the price.She just didn't expect that Yang Fan would sell it at such an expensive pri...
