That afternoon, Yu Ci divided up the remaining cucumbers, put them in bags and labeled them. There were a lot of people buying cucumbers, Yu Ci was afraid of making mistakes, so he made everything more delicate. He borrowed the small cart again, put the cucumber on it, tied it with a rope, and then slowly pushed the cart to the street outside the villa area. He couldn't deliver the cucumbers to different buyers, so he could only ask the other buyers to come and pick them up. Fortunately, the alumni are all good alumni who abide by the time.
It took more than an hour to sell all the cucumbers. The wholesale price of two yuan and five catties was not a burden for many students, and more than 4,000 catties of cucumbers barely sold for more than 10,000 yuan. Yu Ci was stunned.
On the way home, he pushed the cart and fell into confusion. The cucumbers he had worked so hard to grow for so long only sold for 10,000 yuan, but he spent more than 600,000 yuan on the land and fertilizer. This account was a loss no matter how he calculated it, and he didn't know how to earn it back.
Yu Ci sighed, feeling very complicated and a little aggrieved.
When Qi Huai drove by, he first saw Yu Ci from a distance. The young man in his twenties was tall and slender, with a very good figure. His short soft hair swayed slightly in the wind, paired with that beautiful face with clear features and a picture. like. It’s just that the trolley looks too down-to-earth, which spoils the beauty of the picture a bit.
The black car approached Yu Ci, Qi Huai just wanted to say hello but found Yu Ci drooping his head, looking a little unhappy. He froze for a moment, suddenly not knowing whether to speak or not. But they said that you still have to say hello when you meet acquaintances, otherwise the neighborhood relationship will become bad...
Thinking of this, Qi Huai called out Yu Ci's name.
Yu Ci was still immersed in the lamentation that he lost money and had no underwear left, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice with a chill in his ear, like a frightened little animal suddenly raised his head, those beautiful pair of When his eyes touched Qi Huai's face, he suddenly smiled, "It's Mr. Qi, are you going out?"
Qi Huai nodded lightly, thought for a while before asking: "Are you unhappy?"
Yu Ci touched his face, "Is it obvious? It's not that you're unhappy, it's just that your mood is a little complicated."
Qi Huai let out a oh, and suddenly lowered his eyes and took out his mobile phone to find a certain WeChat dialog box, and sent a message: My neighbor is not happy, what should I do
The other party quickly replied: What does it matter to you that your neighbor is unhappy
Qi Huai: Didn't you tell me that neighbors should live in harmony and love
As soon as the message was sent out, the "the other party is typing" flashed on and off on the dialog box, and after about two minutes, two concise words appeared in front of Qi Huai: Coax him!
Qi Huai narrowed his eyes and looked up at Yu Ci. Yu Ci wondered why Qi Huai didn't speak for a long time, could it be something urgent? Just as she was about to open her mouth to ask the other party to leave intimately, the other party said directly: "I'll coax you."
Yu Ci: "Huh?"
As if he couldn't see Yu Ci's shocked and bewildered expression, Qi Huai's expression was still very serious, and he said word by word: "How can I coax you to make you happier?"
Yu Ci's mood became more complicated at this moment.
The first time he saw Qi Huai, he basically knew Qi Huai's character clearly. This man is good-looking, but usually cold, like an ice sculpture. But it's strange, he seems to be learning to melt that frost, trying to integrate into ordinary people's life like a child learning to speak. That sentence "How can I coax you to make you happier" was so straightforward and cute, it made Yu Ci's heart warm.
Yu Ci raised a smile, "Then, why don't you buy me a milk tea?"
The overly simple request made Qi Huai nod his head.
There is a milk tea shop on the street near the villa area. The owner is a thin and tall man in his thirties. Seeing Yu Ci bring Qi Huai in, he greeted him with a smile. Yu Ci would occasionally have some milk tea to drink, or sit in a corner with his chin propped up for an afternoon, in the name of looking for inspiration.
"Is it business as usual today?"
Yu Ci nodded, then smiled and said, "Two cups."
After taking the milk tea, Yu Ci stuffed one of the cups into Qi Huai's hands, with the same smile on his face: "The boss is very nice, he adds a lot of pearls to me every time. Try it."
Qi Huai didn't look like the kind of person who likes to drink milk tea, he held the milk tea cup and looked around, his eyes were calm. Drooping Eyes took a sip, and the soft and elastic pearls flowed into his mouth one by one. The taste of milk and tea was intertwined, not too sweet and not too greasy.
"You like this?"
Yu Ci hummed, "Drinking milk tea can easily improve your mood."
Qi Huai wrote it down silently and didn't speak again. After the two finished drinking the milk tea, Yu Ci thought that Qi Huai was going out to do some serious business, so he didn't delay him any longer, and waved at the man, "Go and do your work, if you come back late at night, come to my house for dinner. "
Qi Huai paused, pursed his lips and asked, "Do you want to eat cucumber?"
Yu Ci laughed, "There are no more cucumbers today."
Because the cucumbers were so popular, he sold them all out.
Qi Huai breathed a sigh of relief.
After seeing off Qi Huai, Yu Ci went to a nearby supermarket to buy vegetables. Considering that Qi Huai would come for dinner later, he specially bought some more to enrich the menu. When he got home, he first sent the cucumbers left for Professor Xia to the other party's home, and then he picked up his phone and lay down on the sofa like a salted fish.
Yu Ci's post about selling cucumbers remains extremely popular on the Imperial University's forum.
In the afternoon, several lecturers from different colleges made an appointment to have afternoon tea. Xia Yiming was forcibly dragged away. He took off his glasses and pinched the sore bridge of his nose, showing a slightly helpless expression, "You guys go first, I'll clean up and talk about it later."
Hearing this, a young female lecturer rolled her eyes, "Professor Xia, you say that every time, and then you disappear every time. No, we must have afternoon tea together today."
"That's right, Professor Xia, let's go, it's rare!"
In desperation, Xia Yiming could only follow a few people to a nearby coffee shop.
Most of the lecturers at Teito University are young, and people in their thirties are sometimes particularly gossipy. Interesting gossip news about various influential figures in the school can't escape their eyes, let alone one of them is a counselor of the art department.
"Hey, when I looked at the forum today, I found that many students were talking about Yu Ci selling cucumbers. Ah Wen, isn't Yu Ci a student in your class? Do you know about this?"
Xu Wen shook his head, "I don't know."
Hearing the familiar name, Xia Yiming paused when he picked up the coffee, and asked, "Yu Ci?"
The female lecturer who spoke earlier nodded repeatedly, "That's right, Professor Xia, don't you know who Yu Ci is? The students in Ah Wen's class, the school's grassroots, the children look pretty good-looking."
Xia Yiming has a cold personality, and the students jokingly call him the flower of Gaoling. And he himself only pays attention to academic related matters, and never participates in the discussion of some gossip, so it is very normal for the female lecturer to think that he does not know about Yu Ci. As everyone knows, Xia Yiming and Yu Ci not only know each other, but also chatted several times.
Thinking of the cucumbers his father made last night, Xia Yiming felt a little better, "Yes, he even sent some cucumbers to the house yesterday, they taste delicious."
As soon as the voice fell, the rest of the lecturers were dumbfounded.
"Professor Xia, are you serious? Is that cucumber sold by Yu Ci?"
"It should be." Xia Yiming recalled what his father said when he was eating, and the corners of his mouth curled into an extremely slight arc. "My father said that Yu Ci planted it himself. The taste is really good, and it is different from the cucumbers on the market. I picked it up yesterday. I ate an extra bowl of rice."
Xu Wen's eyes fell on the phone, she was looking at the forum. Almost all the posts on the homepage carry the word Yu Ci or cucumber, but when you click on the post and look at the content, they are all boasting that the cucumbers grown by Yu Ci are delicious. Those excited words seemed to make Xu Wen see the bright eyes of the students . Hearing Xia Yiming's slightly gentle voice again, her expression became more and more weird.
The cucumbers sold by Yu Ci... are so famous
The other teachers who had similar thoughts with Xu Wen were quite familiar with Xia Yiming. When they invited Xia Yiming to lunch a few days ago, Xia Yiming said that he had a bad appetite, so he simply stopped eating. But now Xia Yiming actually said that he ate an extra bowl of rice yesterday
The female lecturer moved her lips with a weird expression: "Is this cucumber that Yu Ci sells mutated? There are so many people praising it, I want to try it. Ah Wen, why don't you give me his WeChat account?"
The eyes of the other teachers were also quite bright, "Then let's try it too?"
Yu Ci was dozing off with his eyes squinted when he received the friend request, the window in the living room was open, and the afternoon wind blew across his cheeks, as soft as a feather. The mobile phone placed under the pillow vibrated several times suddenly, and the feeling was particularly strong. Yu Ci opened his eyes in a daze, but consciously felt under the pillow with his hand, and successfully found the phone.
He was a little surprised when he saw several friend applications.
It just so happened that he received a message from Xu Wen: Yu Ci, the teachers at the school heard that the cucumbers you sell are very delicious, and they all wanted to buy some from you, so I gave them your WeChat ID. By the way, I also buy some.
Yu Ci: "..."
The source of customers is more than expected, but unfortunately the money earned is too little.
Yu Ci propped his chin and thought for a while, then rubbed his eyebrows and replied: Teacher, the first batch of cucumbers is sold out, the second batch may have to wait, is that okay
Xu Wen had basically anticipated the current situation when she saw the forum, so she was also very calm, and she agreed with it by replying with an OK expression.
Yu Ci clicked the dialog box between him and Xu Wen, added a few more teachers, told them the reason, and then went to the wasteland.
Xu Wen, a counselor, is very popular among the students, and he is especially concerned about the lives of the students. When Yu Ci and Yu Guanghe were slandered in the forum, Xu Wen went to them and told them that the most important thing in life is to have a clear conscience. After three years, all kinds of things, big and small, made Yu Ci have a particularly good impression of her, so that she couldn't even get a few cucumbers out.
Fu Nian was very happy to see Yu Ci coming in, and ran to the young man with flapping wings, his black bean-like eyes were particularly bright, "You are here, I took a look at your experience, you have to plant another acre of cucumbers to upgrade and develop Other sand."
Looking in the direction Fu Nian's wings are pointing at, there is a small experience bar at the bottom of the screen in the sky. The red line is stuck in the middle, the front is the experience, and the back is the experience that has not yet been caught up.
Yu Ci readily agreed.
