Li Feng was not idle in the afternoon. After the weeds were cleared, the two men began to dig lotus roots. Lianlian, Li Ya and Guoguo came to help. The sales of fresh lotus roots were good, and Li Xiaoman needed to come in three to five days. Li Feng planned to do this
The next time I dug some more, Jiang Lili happened to see such good lotus roots and tasted them, saying they were comparable to fruit.
"Brother Xiaobao, please give me some of these lotus roots." Jiang Lili learned this trick from Liu Lan. Although the crispy sound was not as sticky as glutinous rice, it had a bit of crunchy and tingling texture. Li Feng shuddered.
,Why are these girls doing this?
Li Feng felt that this girl must have done it on purpose. He shook his head depressedly and asked, "Why don't you talk nicely?" Jiang Lili laughed. Sure enough, Liu Lan was right. Li Feng was most afraid of others doing this. It was quite interesting. A grown man couldn't listen to this.
The sound was like many girls listening to the harsh sound of a shovel scraping against the cement floor. Li Feng was so coquettish towards these girls that he felt like he had goosebumps when he heard the harsh friction sound.
"I can give you these lotus roots, but as we have agreed, the price of the lotus roots is not low." Li Feng was not polite. There is no point in being polite when you are an acquaintance. If you have agreed on the price, there will be no unpleasantness.
"Haha, don't worry, how much can you say? But you can't be too dark, otherwise I will ask Yali and Meimei to come over and pester you." Jiang Lili took the two lotus root heads that Li Feng had washed and handed them over with a smile.
To the girl next to me, Jiang Lili just introduced her. This is her classmate Meng Shuangshuang. She seems to open a fruit salad shop similar to Jiang Lili’s, but the shop is in Linshui City. No wonder Jiang Lili brought her here, and the two of them
The relationship looks good.
"It sells for 12 yuan in the provincial capital, and it costs 10 yuan here." There is still transportation, labelling, and of course some taxes required in the provincial capital. The total is only about 11 yuan. Jiang Lili is a friend, so the price must be favorable.
Some.
"Not expensive, not expensive. Crisp and sweet lotus root. Ten yuan is not expensive at all. I want two hundred catties." Jiang Lili smiled and agreed. Meng Shuangshuang frowned slightly. The price of lotus root was not that high.
It's expensive. The market price is only a little over three yuan, but the lotus root here in Li Feng is much higher than the market price.
Jiang Lili seemed to see Meng Shuangshuang's doubts and said with a smile. "Try the lotus root, both of you." Meng Shuangshuang looked at the lotus root carefully. It was as bright as jade and looked quite nice. She took a small breath, and Meng Shuangshuang looked at the lotus root carefully.
Both eyes widened. Is the lotus root so crisp, tender and sweet? Could it be a new variety of lotus root? Jiang Lili smiled and patted Meng Shuang's hands and whispered. "Now you know, don't you know the price of melons and fruits here?"
Why is it so high? There is no such thing anywhere else. Do you want some? This man is very stingy. He usually sends these fruits and vegetables to his wife."
Li Feng rolled his eyes angrily, and he still provided you with fruits, but Li Feng frowned a little at supplying Meng Shuangshuang. But thinking about the fact that there will be more fruits in the mountains next year, there will definitely not be so much effort in making wine, so the fruits can be supplied.
Two fruit shops. Li Feng didn’t say anything. Meng Shuangshuang had no choice. The shop had been open for nearly two months and the business had been tepid. This time I came to Jiang Lili to learn from her, but I was shocked. In two days,
, their shop is a little smaller than mine, but two days’ business is worth half a month’s business. Meng Shuangshuang was surprised and confused at the same time, what’s going on, Linshui City is not worse than Jianghuai City, really.
Generally speaking, Linshui City is more prosperous than Jianghuai City.
Jiang Lili saw the sad face of this old classmate in the past two days, and then thought that the two of them did not open a store in the same urban area, so she told Meng Shuangshuang the secret of the fruit. Meng Shuangshuang wanted to see this strange man from the mountain village. But she did not expect Li Feng
He was just an ordinary person, and he was so young. He looked a few years older than himself. Meng Shuangshuang was a little disappointed. Hearing such expensive lotus roots, he originally muttered that Li Feng was too big, but he tried the lotus roots. Meng Shuangshuang tried the lotus roots.
Don't say anything, it is indeed the only one. At least I have never tasted lotus root with such a taste. No wonder my old classmate said it can be sold as fruit.
Jiang Lili did not come here just for these lotus roots this time. Jiang Lili mainly focused on fruits. There were not many fruits in the small fruit forest. Li Feng took the children at home to pick them in a while. There were only more than ten kilograms of cherries, so Li Feng divided them.
Half of it was given to Jiang Lili, who laughed at her and made her stingy. "The children have been busy for a long time. Besides, you are home. If you don't leave some fruit to entertain me, I will become Zhou Papi."
Li Feng said with a smile that there were not many fruits in the small fruit forest, but there were a lot of cantaloupes, melons, and watermelons. Even Jiang Lili was interested in the sugar cane that Li Feng did not plant much. However, Li Feng quickly waved his hand. These are not for sale. They are chopped for the children at home.
Li Feng introduced a kind of loofah hanging on the tree. Each loofah was about the same size as a ten-pound watermelon. It had blue and white spots, and the color was much lighter than that of a watermelon. Jiang Lili seemed to have never seen it before.
A little hesitant, Li Feng climbed up the tree and cut off two pieces. The skin of the loofah is extremely hard. Even if it is semi-ripe, it needs to be cut with a sharp knife. If it is ripe, it can only be cut with a small saw.
Li Feng's two loofahs were opened. The pulp of the loofah was like shredded radish, with snow-white dotted with black seeds and strands. Jiang Lily and Meng Shuang both looked at each other. Who has never seen such a strange melon?
Now I finally understand why Li Feng calls such a melon and luffa as big as a watermelon. This name is too vivid. "Look, this is not very mature. You can't separate the threads."
Try it, sweeten it, add it with boiling water and add various fruits to imitate the taste of fruit vermicelli.
Li Feng introduced that loofah has a high starch content, and the strands are like vermicelli. Li Feng took out the mature strands with his hands, ran them through boiling water, and prepared seasonings. There are two types: vinegar, chili red oil and sesame salt, and the other
Tomato sauce, sweet sauce. Li Feng prepared a large bowl, and several of them picked the fruits for a long time. The little ones each had a bowl as an afternoon snack. Jiang Lili tried it and was stunned by the taste. It really tasted like vermicelli, but with
It has a bit of fruity flavor, so if you pair it with various fruits and chill it, it is definitely the best way to dispel the heat, especially the loofah.
"By the way, I forgot to mention that this kind of loofah also has a weight loss effect. If you eat more, you won't gain weight." Li Feng said and stopped talking. Although the weight loss effect of loofah is not obvious, it really has a weight loss effect.
, this is enough. Li Feng doesn't plant much, otherwise he would let Li Xiaoman sell it in the supermarket. The supermarket quantity is not good. No matter how good the product is, there won't be a large quantity. Li Feng doesn't plan to sell it in the supermarket.
"I want all these loofahs." After Meng Shuangshuang finished speaking, she noticed Jiang Lily and Li Feng staring at her, a little embarrassed. "Lily, what are you doing looking at me like this?"
"Shuangshuang, I regret it. I shouldn't have brought you here. You have such a big appetite and you don't leave any for me. It's over. It's over." Jiang Lili pretended to be exaggerated, making Meng Shuangshuang even more embarrassed.
"Lily, can you leave some for me, just enough for me to eat myself." Meng Shuangshuang thought of Li Feng's introduction to Jiang Lili, and it was a bit bad to intervene. Besides, Li Feng didn't know her or was familiar with her, so of course he would take care of her.
Old friend.
"Shuangshuang, I need to think about this carefully." Jiang Lili teased Meng Shuangshuang deliberately until she saw Meng Shuangshuang sigh deeply and said with a smile. "Haha, I've thought about it, I'll give you one-third.
One, there is no way, even though this race of people is so strange."
"Ah, thank you Lily, that's great, one third is a lot. The business in my store is not as good as yours, how about I do it a little less." Meng Shuangshuang was pleasantly surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized
The business of the store has not improved much yet, so it is not necessarily possible to digest so much. Jiang Lili saw Meng Shuangshuang's thoughts and murmured a few words. Meng Shuangshuang glanced at Li Feng. "Really?" "Of course, you will do this this time."
Buy more products, try them and you will understand what value for money is.”
Meng Shuangshuang thought for a while, gritted her teeth, nodded, and said, "Lily, I will listen to you this time." Sure enough, Meng Shuangshuang wanted the same amount of watermelon, melon, cantaloupe, tomatoes, and other fruits as Jiang Lili.
Li Feng didn't think anything of it, but comparing Jiang Lili and Meng Shuangshuang's business, it's easy to imagine how determined Meng Shuangshuang was. Li Feng sent them away and returned to the yard, where Lianlian and Guoguo were clearing away the dishes.
.
"Guoguo, Lianlian, what do you think of the taste of loofah?" Luffa is easy to grow. It only needs to be planted on a hillside or a tree, and it can be planted two to three seasons a year. Li Feng didn't pay much attention to it at first, he just felt that it tasted good.
Loofahs, which are as round as big watermelons and grow on trees, are quite interesting. I planted a few of them myself, but I didn’t expect Jiang Lily and Meng Shuangshuang to be so optimistic about them. Li Feng regretted a little, why didn’t Xiaoman let her try them when she was here.
"Brother, it's delicious. Guoguo loves it." "I like it too, and the shell of this melon is so thick. It's so hard that it can be made into small handicrafts." Lianlian not only likes to eat the shreds inside, but she also likes it.
I like the hard shell on the outside. When mature, the hard shell of loofah is used to hold seasonings such as salt in Yunnan and Guizhou. If you decorate it, it will be good as a handicraft. The round shape can be made into a tumbler-like doll.
"Okay, brother, I will plant more varieties in the future." Li Feng planned to pick two more large loofahs at night, and the whole family would try them. At first, he thought there was nothing wrong with loofahs, but he might be able to earn a lot of money for himself in the future.
.
Li Feng went to the back to look at several loofahs that had climbed up the peach tree. He counted them and found that there were less than ten loofahs left. Jiang Lili and Meng Shuangshuang bought nearly sixty loofahs at once, counting the total of one loofah.
There are about twenty loofahs, which are much more abundant than watermelons. Li Feng brought a bucket of spring water and got some soil and fertilizer to add some fertilizer. They haven't been managed for several years, so I guess they just water them casually. (To be completed.)
