Chapter 503 Strawberries are ripe 2
"The strawberries can be officially picked in three or four days. Now some of them are cooked early. I picked some yesterday and tried it. It tastes very good. When you come tomorrow, you can take some back and try it."
Wu Fei said to Ma Yanwen: "How many strawberries can Boss Ma eat this time? If there are fewer ones, he can arrange to pick a batch tomorrow. If he wants more, he may have to wait for today."
The strawberries in the greenhouse grow very fast after they grow at this time, and they are really the same every day. If you really plan to pick them, it is OK to pick three or five hundred kilograms of strawberries today.
Many of the strawberries have grown very big and are not ripe, but they do not affect the taste of the strawberries at all. If you pick them now, they can be stored for a longer time.
Ma Yanwen said on the phone: "If you first want to pick about 1,000 kilograms for me. I also have an old friend who is asking about strawberries like me. I just remember that you have planted a lot of strawberries, so I promised to ask him."
"That's right. If you have about a thousand pounds, you can arrange to pick them out tomorrow. Is the situation in the county town serious? Will it affect you?"
"Now all the communities in the county have been closed. The county has arranged a lot of people to come to each community every day. For the time being, the other impact is not great, but the county is much quieter now."
"Then are you busy here? Can the vegetables outside be shipped in now? What are the prices of vegetables now? Are there any changes?"
These days, when Wu Fei had free time, he accompanied Kang Liu to work in the farm. He rarely read the phone and did not pay much attention to the news in the group. He just knew that although the situation seemed serious, everyone's life was not greatly affected. At least everyone was still very happy.
However, I heard from my sister Wu Li that the vegetable prices in some places have risen sharply. The cabbage that usually costs about ten yuan per tree is now sold for 40 yuan or 50 yuan.
"The price of vegetables in the county is a little more expensive than in previous years. Although some people have taken advantage of the chaos to raise prices, they have been corrected soon."
"In addition, all communities now have unified side dishes, so the price will not be messed up." When I was about to hang up the phone, Ma Yanwen changed his mind again: "It's better than this. I'll ask my friend to see if he has time tomorrow. Then I will bring him here directly. You will have a face-to-face negotiation."
Originally, Wu Fei wanted to ask Ma Yanwen for information about his friend who needed strawberries. Now that he heard that Ma Yanwen was going to take people down, Wu Fei didn't ask any more questions. Just have to interview directly.
After hanging up the phone, Wu Fei looked at the time and it was only less than 8:30. However, for those who want to send food to many communities, they should have been busy for a lot of time at this time.
It's not like Wu Fei and the others, they're still in bed at this time.
When Kang Liu heard that Wu Fei had finished the call, he had already been awakened by Wu Fei, asked: "Did those who asked for vegetables call? Why did you hear you say strawberry again? Is Xiao Zhiyong's father still doing the fruit business?"
"Just just now, Ma Yanwen called and said he would come to pick up the vegetables tomorrow. In addition, a friend of his requested strawberries should be served together tomorrow. In this way, the strawberries in the field will not have to be sold, but the price is still the same after the people come tomorrow."
"I posted a friend circle of picking strawberries yesterday. A friend commented that the strawberries in the county now cost more than 30 yuan per pound, and they are not as big as ours. The wholesale price should be 20 yuan per pound." After Kang Liu said that, he opened his friend circle to show Wu Fei.
Sure enough, the one Kang Liu sent yesterday had a lot of likes and comments under the circle of friends. Two of them were about the price of strawberries in the county town. One said that the strawberries he bought downstairs of his own house cost 36 yuan per pound, and the other said that he bought 32 yuan per pound.
Although the price of picking in the fields was lowered a little compared to before the Chinese New Year, Wu Fei remembered that it seemed to be about 40 yuan per catty at that time, but now the price is not low at all.
Like the strawberries in Wu Fei, most of them are quite large in size, and they look seven or eight in a pound. In this way, a strawberry costs four or five yuan. Don’t say that you can pick out the largest ones, which may be less than five per pound, and a strawberry needs to be used as a cabbage.
"We should also grow some strawberries on the farm. If we want to eat strawberries, we can eat them at any time."
Speaking of strawberries, Kang Liu immediately drooled: "I found that the strawberries we planted are the best among the strawberries I have ever eaten. Especially the cow strawberries you mentioned are sour and sweet, and very delicious. Let's get up quickly and pick strawberries on the mountain. Is it okay?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to dig some strawberries in the greenhouse and plant them in the farm? Why haven't you planted them yet?" Kang Liu had long said that he wanted to plant strawberries in the farm, and Wu Fei thought Kang Liu had already planted them.
"I want to plant it, but I haven't found a chance. When I went to pick strawberries these two days, I went with my sister. Where can I get a chance to dig? We got up earlier today and went now. My sister probably hasn't gotten up yet."
When Wu Fei and Kang Liu got up, their mother was already preparing breakfast. Wu Fei said to his mother: "Mom, Kang Liu and I went to the field to take a look. Ma Yanwen called over just now and said that he would come to pick up the vegetables tomorrow. I asked my father to call a few people to help. We will collect the vegetables today."
"Then you go, but don't go too long, breakfast will be ready for a while. Your dad also went to the old house above to feed the cows, so you can ask him to come down and have a meal."
Wu Fei and the others found two small hoes in the old house, said to their father, and then got into a greenhouse where strawberries were planted.
"When digging strawberries, don't dig the whole tree. We split the tree one by one. In this way, we can't see it when picking strawberries later."
One night passed, and the strawberries in the greenhouse grew a lot again, and they all looked bright red and looked urged to drool.
Kang Liu even picked a strawberry that was not much smaller than an egg. She blew it and took a bite, and finished a strawberry in two bites.
