"Ah, there are so many fresh vegetables, mother, come and take a look!" Chen Lanlan shouted in surprise.
"Well, they are indeed very fresh, but these vegetables don't seem to be in this season. I wonder how you did it?" Mrs. Chen was also surprised by these vegetables.
"Uh, well, it's a long story. If you have time, you can go and see me. I can't explain a sentence or two clearly!" Chunfeng smiled helplessly. This matter really can't be finished in a while.
"Oh, I must go and see it if I have time!" Mrs. Chen said. "By the way, how many fresh vegetables do you have?"
"Well! Here are just some of the species. I have planted about a dozen species in total. Each species can be harvested for about two to three hundred kilograms at a time, or so. I could have picked one two or three times a year ago!" Chunfeng thought for a while. Answered.
"Okay, our restaurant wants all of your dishes, and the price will be three times the usual seasonal price. What do you think?" Mrs. Chen said.
"So many?" Chunfeng was a little embarrassed.
What Chunfeng didn't know was that in this era, most of the dishes in restaurants in winter were meat-based dishes. Not only were they expensive, not many people liked them, and eating too much meat would make them very greasy.
Because there are very few vegetables that can be eaten in winter, and some of the vegetables that are available in modern times were not available in this era. If you want to eat vegetables in winter, they are all shipped from the Nanchen Kingdom, which is far south.
The delivery time was too long, some vegetables were not very fresh when they arrived, and the prices were very high. Those who could afford it were the dignitaries in the capital and the palace.
Therefore, three times the usual price is really not an exaggeration.
"This is nothing. If these things like you are not unusual in normal times, they are rare things in this winter! No one has been able to grow these things in winter since ancient times? With these vegetables, not only can we solve the problem If you solve the problem of the dishes in our restaurant, maybe it will bring us more business. If you have more vegetables, just send them to us, as much as we want!" Mrs. Chen said cheerfully.
"But there are too many goods shipped at once, and I won't be able to eat them all in a short time. If I don't store them well, I'm afraid they will rot!" Although Chunfeng was happy that the other party had received a lot, he still reminded him kindly.
"You don't have to worry about this, we have branches in other places!" Mrs. Chen said to Chunfeng with a smile.
"Haha, you are honest. If it were someone else who would have been waiting for us to ask for more food, why would you be afraid that the food would be rotten?" Chen Lanlan on the side said with a smile. She is naturally straight-tempered and will say whatever she wants.
"After all, I cultivated them with my own hands. Of course I hope they can be put to good use!" Chunfeng said sincerely.
"Okay, when do you think it will be convenient for delivery?" Mrs. Chen.
"Um, well, I'm afraid I have to trouble Madam's man. We don't have a horse-drawn carriage or an ox-cart, so you still need to send someone to pick up the food, but you can deduct the transportation fee from the food price." Chunfeng explained. reason.
"It's okay, you can just go and pull it yourself, and the fare will be waived! Anyway, we have to bear the cost ourselves when we go to pull it elsewhere!" Mrs. Chen said gently.
"Well, thank you madam! If possible, madam can send someone there today!" Chunfeng was relieved after solving the car problem!
"Okay, Shopkeeper Liu, please send two people to follow this girl to collect the vegetables. The price will be as we just said." Mrs. Chen waved her hand to the steward on the side.
"Yes, madam." Shopkeeper Liu bent down and nodded to Mrs. Chen.
"Then I won't bother Chunfeng any more and I'll take my leave first!" Chunfeng said politely.
"Hey, don't be anxious, let's have lunch and then leave!" Chen Lanlan saw that Chunfeng was leaving in a hurry and asked to stay.
"Let's have dinner another day. Our village is still some distance away from here, and the road that has just melted snow is not easy to walk. If we go back late, I'm afraid it will be too late." Chunfeng declined Chen Lanlan's invitation.
"Well, I'll come find you some other time!" Chen Lanlan only felt that Chunfeng was a real person who was very to her liking, and couldn't help but like her temperament.
"Okay, Miss Lan Lan is welcome to come at any time!" Chunfeng said with a smile.
"Well, it's settled then!" Chen Lanlan also said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Liu sent a relatively spacious carriage, so Chunfeng went back in the carriage, which was naturally faster than the ox-cart.
As soon as the carriage made by Spring Breeze arrived at the entrance of the village, there were many people watching the carriage and talking quietly.
"Where did the car come from? Whose house is this going to?"
"Yeah, I don't know why you came to the village?"
"Is there some noble person here?"
In fact, Dongfeng's carriage is not luxurious, it is just an ordinary carriage. It may be wider than other carriages, and this is also to accommodate more dishes.
But the villagers in Dahe Village have never seen much of the world, and they think that as long as a carriage is a carriage, it belongs to a noble person.
There was a lot of discussion for a while, and some people even followed the carriage, wanting to see where it was going!
It wasn't until the carriage slowly stopped at the door of Chunfeng's house and Chunfeng got out of the car that the villagers realized that they were going to Chunfeng's house!
Then the discussion started again: "When did the Chunfeng family become a noble? They came back in a carriage."
"Who knows, it seems that the Chunfeng family has become prosperous, and Chunfeng Mother will be blessed in the future... "
It's all about how the Chunfeng family wants to become prosperous, how to meet noble people, etc...
When Chunfeng got out of the car, he saw a large group of people following the car. He was surprised, but he ignored those people and ran straight into the yard.
"Mom, eldest sister, I'm back!" Chunfeng shouted into the room. At this time, Chun Sheng should go to Mr. Liu's house to study! There are only eldest sister and mother in the family.
"Why are you back so early? How are things going?" Chunfeng Niang asked hurriedly when she saw that Chunfeng was back so early.
"The matter is done. Now the vegetable puller is waiting outside. Let's go to the fields to pick vegetables!" Chunfeng said happily to his mother.
"Is it done so quickly?" Chunfeng Niang.
"Yes, I happened to meet the lady I saved last time. Their restaurant happened to need a lot of vegetables, so we settled on it!"
Chunfeng took the eldest sister to get some sickles and baskets in the house, and then the mother and daughter went out to the fields!
Seeing that Chunfeng's family took the people on the carriage to those strange sheds in her house, the villagers followed curiously.
Chunfeng, mother and daughter were busy collecting vegetables, while the two guys who were sent helped to load the baskets and put them on the carriage. In this way, basket after basket of vegetables was loaded onto the carriage, and the whole cart was filled. The Chunfeng family Less than one-tenth of them were picked.
Now the villagers in Dahe Village were excited: "Oh my god, this is... this is pepper, this is cucumber? This, this... what is going on? How can you grow these in winter?"
"Yes, this is amazing. I heard that Chunfeng wants to plant vegetables in winter. Did I think she was joking? I didn't expect... "
"It's really strange..."
