Space as it happens

Chapter 22 Income

Shen Suiyu carried the fish in the bag and strolled towards the house. Halfway there, he suddenly remembered what he had been thinking about before, so he stopped, turned around and returned to Shen Jiang's house.

Seeing him coming back, Xia Chunhong turned her head and asked, "Why are you back? Did you forget to bring something?"

"No, no." Shen Suiyu said, "I just want to ask you, do you know anyone in our village who is more leisurely and has a reliable character?" For now, he can only look for them in the village. Who in the village knows how to pick vegetables?

Xia Chunhong looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong, are you looking for help?"

Shen Suiyu nodded and said: "Well, I want to find someone to help pick vegetables. Although the daily supply is not very large, there will definitely be more and more in the future. Jiang Huai'an and I are not I may be picking vegetables on the mountain all day long, so I want to find someone to do it."

"That's right, you can't spend all your time on this matter." Xia Chunhong put away the things at hand, thought about it carefully, and then said, "Well... I have someone to choose."

"Tell me." Shen Suiyu also put down the bag, walked over and moved two chairs to sit on.

Xia Chunhong looked at the posture, smiled and patted Shen Suiyu's shoulder, "What is this for, do you think you want to hear me tell you a story?" Even though she said so, she still sat down.

"In this way, there will be more atmosphere for chatting." Shen Suiyu replied with a smile.

Glancing at him, Xia Chunhong shook her head, and then began to say, "I don't know if you still remember Xu Lu, but that Xu Lu who lives next door to our house, your sister Xu."

"I remember." Xu Lu was only eight years older than him, and when he was in junior high school, he would often stuff him with candies and biscuits.

"Just remember." Xia Chunhong sighed, and told him in a low voice: "Xu Lu is also a poor child. Her husband has made money in business in the past two years, but in the end, the good ones learn the bad ones. He is now, Just raise a little wife in the city, and don't care about the life and death of their mother and daughter."

"Xu Lu's child is still young, and there is a blind old mother at home. The whole family depends on her to support her alone. She is diligent and quick in both hands and feet. She juggles several jobs a day. Do you think she can do it? "

Shen Suiyu pondered for a while, and said: "It's okay, but the work is very tiring. Can sister Xu, a woman, do it?" It was hot, with a temperature of 35 to [-] degrees. He was worried that Xu Lu's body would not be able to bear it.

"Then how about this?" Xia Chunhong thought for a while, looked up at the time, and then said, "Xu Lu should be at home right now, I'll go find her, and you two can talk face to face?"

Shen Suiyu nodded, and replied, "That's fine, then I'll trouble Second Aunt for a trip."

Xia Chunhong stood up, and said with a smile: "What's the trouble, it's just a few steps." Then she turned and went out.

After about a few minutes, Xia Chunhong came back, followed by a woman.

Shen Suiyu hadn't seen Xu Lu for many years, and when he saw her again, he almost couldn't recognize her.In his impression, Xu Lu's personality is cheerful and optimistic, and she often has a bright and happy smile on her face... Where is this middle-aged woman with a sallow complexion and a bitter smile in front of him now?

"Miss Xu."

After being stunned for a while, Shen Suiyu came back to his senses, and smiled and called Xu Lu, just like he did when he was a child.

Xu Lu rubbed her hands together, and responded somewhat cautiously.

At this time, Xia Chunhong happened to bring a chair over for her and let her sit down.

After Xu Lu sat down, she looked up at Shen Suiyu, hesitated for a while, and asked, "I just heard from my aunt that you want someone to help you pick vegetables, right?"

"Yes." Shen Suiyu clarified the question directly: "Sister Xu, you know, summer is coming soon, even if you come to pick vegetables at four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is still very strong, you really can bear it ?”

Xu Lu smiled when she heard the words, "Forget about Suiyu, I have been used to doing farm work since I was a child, and I have not been exposed to the sun in any summer, but now I can't bear it, I can bear it."

Hearing this, Shen Suiyu thought for a while in silence, and finally said: "That's fine, I will trouble sister Xu in the future."

Xu Lu finally showed a happy expression.

Shen Suiyu looked at her, and then said: "Sister Xu, you also know that I have just covered the mountain not long ago, and the money on hand is almost spent. I can't pay you too much for this salary. I will give you 35 a day, is it acceptable?"

Without waiting for Xu Lu to answer, he continued: "You don't need to be busy all day. Right now, it's 170 catties a day. Lettuce and cabbage are 85 catties each. When do you come over and pick them up? That's fine, when the number of picks to be picked every day increases, your salary will increase further."

If an old farmer with a faster hand picks 170 catties of vegetables, it can be picked in about two hours.

Xu Lu didn't feel that the salary was low. She was very happy, and without any hesitation, she quickly agreed, "It's okay, I accept it." She was really short of money, and almost every day Two or three hours of busy work is very cost-effective.

"That's it, it's settled like that," Shen Suiyu frowned, and then asked, "By the way, sister Xu, can you come today?"

Xu Lu nodded and said, "Yes, I can go today."

Shen Suiyu discussed with Xu Lu that she would pick them first, and he would go to pick them up after about six o'clock. After saying this, he said goodbye to Xia Chunhong and Shen Jiang, then took the basket and went home.

Putting aside one important matter on his mind, when Shen Suiyu returned home all the way, there was still a smile on his face that hadn't faded.

With Xu Lu's help, Shen Suiyu could concentrate on planting the seeds. After five full days, he and Jiang Huai'an finally planted all the seeds, and he planted the vegetables for seedlings alone. in a small greenhouse.

This greenhouse was built by him in a hurry. It is not big, and the planting area inside is about [-] square meters.

As for this greenhouse, Shen Suiyu planned to use it exclusively for raising seedlings.

He originally planned to raise the seedlings in the space, but after thinking about it, that would not work. If the seedlings were raised in the space, then there would be no way to explain the source of the seedlings to Jiang Huaian——

He cannot expose the secrets of space.



Time flies, unknowingly, half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past half a month, Shen Suiyu finally made some money, nearly [-] yuan, which relieved his urgent needs, and finally he was not so short of money.

And as the weather gets hotter, the vegetables in the six greenhouses are finally ready to be picked one after another.

As usual, Shen Suiyu picked the first batch first, kept some for himself to eat, some gave to Shen Jiang and the others, and some were given to the village secretary and the village chief.

Just like the previous one, everyone’s feedback is very high.

So, the next day, the types of vegetables that Shen Suiyu gave to the canteen of No. [-] Middle School and Yun Kexuan finally changed.

Knowing that other vegetables in Shen Suiyu's vegetable garden could be picked, Han Yang quickly dialed the phone and asked him to change from delivering two vegetables a day to five vegetables a day, and the quantity also increased to [-] catties a day.

Shen Suiyu responded with a smile, and then found a pen and paper to record it.

After hanging up Han Yang's phone, Li Li's phone call came in. She asked Shen Suiyu to send three kinds of vegetables to the cafeteria in the future, and then added [-] catties of each kind.

Her third canteen has finally stopped being overwhelmed by the first and second canteens recently. During this period of time, the number of students coming to the third canteen has increased significantly.

Vegetables, which were the least popular in the past, became a popular dish among students in the third cafeteria, attracting a group of girls who like vegetarian food and are trying to lose weight.

Hearing the news, the corners of Shen Suiyu's mouth couldn't be restrained, and it almost reached the ears. If he hadn't been answering Li Li's phone call, he would probably have to go out for a few laps immediately——

He couldn't be happier.

It's all money.

In the cafeteria of No. [-] Middle School, Li Li also happily told Shen Suiyu that since the change of vegetables from his family, the number of students coming to the No. [-] cafeteria has obviously increased. Now there are not enough vegetables for students to eat every day. Add another twenty catties.
