The Story of Ancient Farming through Time Traveling

Twelve people had been busy all morning before they finished picking the watermelons in the field. The picked watermelons were placed in a large pile, which was very comfortable to look at.

Chen Xingzhou took a plate of watermelons, and the total output was 1 catties, which was comparable to his estimate.

After picking the melons and having lunch, Chen Xingzhou hired a 15-meter carriage non-stop, pulled the watermelons and set off to Qianzhou Fruit Shop.

Everything in Qianzhou Fruit Shop is ready, just waiting for the wind of fruit.

Chen Xingzhou took Liu Fei to Qianzhou to carry and tidy up with him, while Li Zhu stayed with them to clean up the mess in the field. The watermelon seedlings needed to be pulled out, and the cantaloupe would be ripe in about ten days, and they would all be planted as cantaloupe.

Before leaving, Chen Xingzhou told Li Zhu, "Arrange to watch the night at night. One person is not enough. It's better to be in a group of three, just for one night, so as to ensure that the watermelon will not be lost. By the way, when you go home at night, take it with you." Take a few watermelons back and give them to Mother and Granny Li to eat. They are delicious, and when the time comes, I will give each of the workers one piece so that they can take it back and give it to their families to try." Chen Xingzhou has always been generous to his own people, Tomorrow, he will also bring some to Shen Jiu and the others, so that they can taste it and find it delicious. He intends to develop it into a stable customer.

"Okay, Brother Chen, I see."

From busy in the afternoon to dark, fifteen carts full of watermelons were put into the store and neatly arranged. They should be able to sell a lot tomorrow.

There was a lot of movement around Qianzhou Fruit Shop. Many passers-by stopped to watch and guessed what it was on the carriage. They were still green and round. They had never seen it before, and there were many of them. It made them even more curious.

So a passerby who couldn't help being curious asked, "What are those things on your carriage? We've never seen them before."

Chen Xingzhou happened to have no place to promote, so the opportunity came, and he explained: "These are all edible, we will open tomorrow, free tasting, please come and support us."

Chen Xingzhou explained half and kept the other half. Passers-by kept asking, but he kept silent.

It was just getting dark, and the two of them finally finished moving. In summer, it was tiring and hot. Chen Xingzhou missed electric fans, air conditioners, and summer clothes even more. In ancient times, even in summer, long trousers and long shirts were required. It was too hot. up.

Chen Xingzhou sat down on the ground, gasping for breath. The working people are the most honorable, and the working people are the hardest.

"Brother Liu, take a rest first, and then go home, I'm really tired."

After a day of tossing, Liu Fei was really tired. He sat down next to Chen Xingzhou, took a few breaths and said, "Xingzhou, I have something to apologize to you."

Chen Xingzhou knew what it was, so he didn't take it to heart at all, and Liu Fei didn't do anything wrong.

"Brother Liu, I know what you said. I didn't take it to heart at all. I don't need your apology."

"Xingzhou, it's my fault. I'm sorry for you. I shouldn't think too much, let alone doubt you. It was my aunt who asked me, so I answered truthfully. You can punish me however you want, just don't drive me away. .”

Chen Xingzhou was not a small-minded person, besides, where did Liu Fei see that he had the idea of ​​driving him away?His relationship with Baigan has not been exposed, so there is no need to drive Liu Fei away, even if it is exposed, it is still unnecessary to drive Liu Fei away.

"Brother Liu, it's been so long, you should know who I am, and you should know that you are like a big brother in my heart. From today onwards, this matter is over, don't bring it up again in the future, if you do, don't Blame me for not thinking about this love." At the end of the speech, there was already a threatening tone.

Now that the talk has reached this point, Liu Fei naturally doesn't want to say anything more, but keeps telling himself to think less about what's there and what's not in the future.

"Xingzhou, it's almost time to rest, let's go home."

"it is good."

The two got up and left the Qianzhou fruit shop. Chen Xingzhou locked the door and went home together.

In the Chen family, Liu Cui had already prepared the meal, and Li Zhu had also returned. They were sitting at the dining table in the courtyard, waiting for Chen Xingzhou and Liu Fei to arrive.

Seeing the two of them coming back, Liu Cui hurriedly said, "I'm back, let's eat quickly."

Chen Xingzhou pulled out a small bench and asked, "Mother, Granny Li, have you eaten watermelon?"

Liu Cui smiled, "No, we will eat together when you come back."

"also."

After dinner, Chen Xingzhou cut open two large watermelons, and the family sat in the yard to enjoy the cool and eat the watermelons, feeling very comfortable.

After sitting for a while, Chen Xingzhou went back to his room to rest. The Qianzhou fruit shop will be opening tomorrow, and it will definitely be very busy, so he needs to recharge his batteries.

On the second day, Chen Xingzhou woke up just before dawn, and Li Zhu and Liu Fei were still sleeping, so he had no choice but to call someone himself.

"Get up quickly and tidy up. The store is newly opened today, so we have to go early."

Then there was the sound of getting dressed.

After they got dressed, they wiped their faces casually. Chen Xingzhou gave Liu Fei the key to the store, "You two go to the store first, remember to eat something at the roadside stall, and I'll go buy firecrackers."

"it is good."

The three act separately.

Chen Xingzhou only opened the door when he arrived at the firecracker shop. He was the first customer of the day and was warmly received by the boss.

The style of ancient firecrackers is simple, only modern firecrackers, he also let it go during the Chinese New Year this year, it is quite strong, the opening of the business is a festive event, firecrackers are a necessity.

Chen Xingzhou bought a total of five taels of silver, two full bags, enough for the opening of the business.

After buying the firecrackers, Chen Xingzhou hurried to the store.

It's Chen time, Chen Xingzhou specially asked someone to see the opening time, Si time is the best time to open, and there is still a little time to make preparations.

When they arrived at the store, Li Zhu and Liu Fei were both there. The three hung up the plaque first, and waited for the firecrackers to go off before the red cloth was lifted.

After the plaque was hung, the three of them worked together to move out a large table, on which watermelons were placed one by one, in a long row, which was very spectacular and attracted many people to stop and watch.

Before the opening, there was a circle of people outside. In the crowd, Chen Xingzhou saw Baigan at a glance, and the two looked at each other with indescribable tenderness.

Yuan Bao on the side followed Baigan's gaze, saw Chen Xingzhou, and then looked at Baigan, why were the two so strange?There was something wrong with the way the young master and Mr. Chen looked at each other. If it wasn't for the young master's engagement, he would have thought the young master had lost his sleeve.

After a long time, the time has come, and the firecrackers are all fired.

Li Zhu set off firecrackers, Chen Xingzhou and Liu Fei raised the red cloth, and as soon as the firecrackers sounded, Qianzhou Fruit Shop officially opened.

The sound of firecrackers was deafening, Chen Xingzhou had a smile on his face, and he finally had a store.

After the sound of firecrackers, I saw Xu Tian coming out of the crowd, holding a painting in his hand, "Congratulations, Brother Chen, for a successful opening. A little care is not worth mentioning."

Chen Xingzhou took over the painting, "Thank you Brother Xu."

Immediately afterwards, Fang Zhengjie stepped forward and presented two portraits of the God of Wealth, "Congratulations on the successful opening of Xingzhou, and the wealth is abundant."

"Thank you Brother Fang, Li Zhu, for pasting the painting of the God of Defeat on the door."

"it is good."

"You two, please come inside, if you like it, take it away."

"Xingzhou, you are busy with your work, Boss Xu and I will look around."

"That's fine too."

That being the case, I can only wait for tomorrow to personally deliver some watermelons to Brother Fang and Brother Xu.

After the episode, Chen Xingzhou said, "Today is the first day of the opening of Qianzhou Fruit Shop. Everyone can taste the watermelon for free. If you think it is delicious, please take care of the business."

Then there was the sound of chopping watermelon.

Red flesh and black seeds, it looks full of water, but everyone present has never seen this thing, what if it is poisonous?So no one dared to come forward to eat.

After Baigan and Yuanbao ate yesterday, they still feel that they are not satisfied, so they went forward to taste it first.

After eating one piece, Baigan gave a thumbs up and praised: "It's delicious, it's so delicious, I've never eaten such a delicious thing, it's really too sweet."

After eating one piece of Yuanbao, he picked up another piece, "Aren't you really going to taste it? Let's not talk about the taste, the key is to taste it for free. After passing this village, there will be no such shop. If you don't eat it, then I'm welcome. It's over." After speaking, Yuan Bao began to chew again.

Although it is not designed in advance, it is more natural than planned in advance.

Seeing this, a few brave ones came over to pick up a piece, and seeing how delicious the ingot tasted, they couldn't help but gnawed on it. Finally, they ate one piece and yelled, "It's so fucking delicious, I've never tasted it before. I’ve eaten such a delicious thing, but I don’t know what it is, I’ve never heard of it, I’ve never seen it before, and it’s so delicious, and it’s so damn comfortable after eating this thing on such a hot day.”

The words stirred up a thousand waves, and the crowd immediately became lively, and everyone tasted it one after another. Soon, nearly twenty large watermelons were eaten up. Some people were slow, and they only ate one piece. There were quite a few of them, and they left satisfied with the watermelon. Some people moved more slowly, and they were gone before they ate it. They also came into the store to buy one after another. There were also many rich elders, who were even more impolite, and bought them directly. Dozens of them went back.

On the first day of opening, it ushered in a good start. Nearly 6000 catties were sold for one third. It is good to have more people, but the non-stop made the three of them very tired.

Enduring his exhaustion, Chen Xingzhou sat in front of the counter and counted the money. Today, he earned 90 taels, minus 35 taels for buying firecrackers, 33 taels for renting the store, and 22 taels for delisting, leaving [-] taels. It's earned back, yes, it's a good start, if it can continue to be so popular, then the price increase of cantaloupe and cantaloupe will not be a problem.

Chen Xingzhou was happy. Before it was dark and there were no guests, he sent Li Zhu and Liu Fei home. He hired a carriage and took ten big watermelons to Qingyou Pavilion. I was just thinking, if Shen Jiu could be developed into a stable source of customers, that would be the best. His place has a lot of traffic, and the market will open up, so he will definitely not worry about selling it, but the monotonous fruits are not good, and they need some new tricks. Then serve the fruit plate.
