Chapter 53: Grandma Xu Helps Sell the Loquats
The city management is here!"Yang Fan hadn't heard what they were shouting, but *whoosh*, the stinky tofu vendor shoved a tray of stinky tofu into her hand and then *poof*, pushed his cart away.It was...After Yang Fan and Grandpa Li left, Grandma Xu moved a small stool to the courtyard and sat down, waiting for someone to buy her loquats.
They had just left when a woman arrived on an electric tricycle in Shangyuan Village.
"Yang Fan's loquats... Who is Yang Fan"
Wang Xiuzhen followed the road all the way in, and after a while she saw someone. It was Fu Yonghui carrying a hoe to the field.
She stopped her car and asked for directions, "Brother, I want to ask if your village has a peach seller named Yang Fan"
"Yes, just keep walking straight ahead," Fu Yonghui pointed to Yang Fan's house in front and said: "That house belongs to Yang Fan. Her family is selling loquats."
He pointed to the surrounding mountains again, "All the fruit trees around here are hers."
"Okay, okay, thanks big brother."
"You're welcome."
Wang Xiuzhen continued driving forward, a hint of confusion on her face. "How come I've never heard of there being an orchard here in Shangyuan Village before..."
She drove all the way, first to Grandma Xu's house. She stopped and asked for directions, "Sister, isn't that Yang Fan's house I came here to buy some loquats from him."
So soon someone came to buy loquats!
Grandma Xu got up and smiled, waving at Wang Xiuzhen in the car. "Come here, this is Yang Fan's loquat tree, she went out, let me sell it for her."
Wang Xiuzhen: "Ah"
She got off the car half-believing and walked to Grandma Xu's courtyard. Seeing the yellow peaches in the frame, her eyes were full of amazement, "Wow, these peaches look so good."
“This strawberry and lychee also look good.”
The strawberries and lychees in the basket next to me were also large, red, and the air was filled with the sweet fragrance of fruit.
At first glance, you can tell this fruit is the right one.
"These are all one price, 66 yuan per kilogram, over a kilogram is 60 yuan per kilogram," Grandma Xu introduced enthusiastically, "You can try one of each."
"Try one."
Just so happens that her son and daughter-in-law both really like these three kinds of fruits. They each try some, and if they like them, they'll buy some to take back home.
Wang Xiuzhen tried one, and her eyes lit up immediately. "Hmm! This fruit is good!"
Juicy, fragrant and sweet, you'll want to eat it again and again.
Grandma Xu's face was full of pride. "Delicious, isn't it"
Wang Xiuzhen nodded. "Delicious,"
"Big sister, give me two pounds of each kind."
"Good." Granny Xu quickly took the bag and weighed the fruit for her.
Six catties is equal to three hundred and sixty pieces. With so many catties of fruit, it will cost over three hundred yuan. Wang Xiuzhen still felt a bit pained by the expense.
"Big sister, I bought so much, can you give me a discount"
"Big sister, I've already given you a very cheap price," Grandma Xu said, "This fruit is so good, especially this loquat. Eating it can cure a cold."
Yesterday, people from the Zhongshan Hospital came to Yang Fan asking him to buy all the loquats on the mountain to make loquat paste. Yang Fan refused, saying that making loquat paste is not as effective as eating them directly.
"Since this is such good loquat, can you please give me a lower price"
It really works for curing a cold!
Wang Xiuzhen's heart pounded with excitement. It seemed she had come to the right place after all.
"Excuse me, ma'am, could you weigh out a pound of loquats for me"
Fearing two jin of her granddaughter wouldn't be enough to eat, she ordered another jin of loquats.
Seven catties, a total of 420 yuan.
Wang Xiuzhen walked until about 5 or 6 in the afternoon. Grandma Xu's dinner was almost ready, and someone else came to buy loquats.
Ge Junya's colleagues, all of whom had eaten the loquats she gave them, came to buy loquats specially.
But as they looked at the lychees and strawberries on the side, everyone tasted them and found them delicious.
Thus, those who came to buy loquats not only bought loquats but also purchased lychees and strawberries.
Grandma Xu looked at the basket, which had only a few fruits left, and couldn't help but admire herself for being a real sales genius.
On the other side, Wang Xiuzhen bought some loquats and hurried home. After getting home, she immediately peeled the loquat skin for her granddaughter to eat.
Her granddaughter, who couldn't eat anything before, couldn't stop eating this loquat after she took a bite.
"Grandma, I want to eat more."
"Okay, okay, Grandma, I'll peel it for you."
When Wang Xiuzhen saw her granddaughter eating, she was delighted. "My dear, eat more of this loquat. Once you finish it, your illness will be better."
"Mom, what are you feeding the child"
Her daughter-in-law, Liu Ling, walked in from outside just as she heard this. She walked up to the two of them and, seeing the loquats in the bag, asked.
"Mom, you went to buy loquats, I was just thinking about going to buy some loquats to make loquat paste."
"Just right, you guys don't eat it all up, leave some for me to make into loquat paste for the kids to eat."
Wang Xiuzhen waved her hands repeatedly, "It can't be made into loquat paste. This loquat is best eaten directly for the effect."
"Who told you that" Liu Ling explained, "Loquat needs to be made into loquat paste for the body to absorb it better and have a cough-relieving effect."
"That's what the loquat seller told me."
Wang Xiuzhen told everyone how she learned about the loquat and everything that Grandma Xu had said when she bought it.
Liu Ling's face was full of the helpless expression of an old woman who had been cheated.
It's impossible that someone would go to a Chinese medicine hospital to buy loquats, and people wouldn't be willing to sell them. This sounds like a lie.
A real farmer would find a suitable market for their produce, they wouldn't sell to those charlatans at traditional Chinese medicine shops. That scam is too obvious, it can only fool the elderly.
Sixty yuan per kilogram of loquats, with some lychees and strawberries.
The old woman had just spent hundreds of yuan. Wang Xiu Zhen, her daughter-in-law, was about to say that she had been cheated.
Suddenly, she had a loquat stuffed into her mouth by the other person. The sweet flesh was in her mouth, and she subconsciously chewed it before swallowing the words on the tip of her tongue.
Don't say anything, this loquat is pretty delicious!
Wang Xiuzhen put on an air of smugness, "Delicious, isn't it"
"Delicious! This loquat is so sweet!"
Liu Ling reached out to take it, but Wang Xiu Zhen stopped her.
"These loquats are all bought for Lanlan, you go eat lychees and strawberries, those are bought for you."
"... Alright."
Although she can't eat loquats, strawberries and lychees are also her favorites.
Seeing the large, red strawberries in the bag, Liu Ling quickly took some to wash and eat. The strawberries were delicious, better than any she had ever tasted before. The lychee was also especially tasty.
After Wang Xiuzhen's son and husband came back, they also said the fruits were delicious, but they didn't take her words about loquats curing colds to heart.
The child who had been repeatedly feverish throughout the day no longer had a fever by evening. They also showed an appetite for food and felt much more energetic overall. They didn't cough much throughout the night either.
Until the next day, the child was completely well and bouncing around as usual.
But Liu Ling and her husband still believe that the child got better because of the shots and medicine.
Who would believe that eating loquats can cure a cold
They didn't believe, but Wang Xiuzhen did. The child has been sick and she has been the one taking care of him, giving him injections and medicine ever since.
It's been so many days, the doctor said to recover slowly, but now it's better after eating loquat.
That must be the effect of loquat!
Wang Xiuzhen immediately recommended Yang Fan's loquat from Shangyuan Village to the familiar children's classmates and parents.
Now many children are getting sick. Those grandparents watching their grandchildren suffer, their hearts are so pained.
This isn't true, Wang Xiuzhen and they recommended loquat can cure diseases. Many grandfathers and grandmothers were moved by it.
Sixty yuan per kilogram is a bit expensive, but for the sake of the child, I'll grit my teeth and buy it for him!ibling bond, brotherhood at this moment rapidly fractures.Looking at their plastic relationships that could be broken with a single word, Yang Fan fell silent for a moment.
