Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Eight: Family Meeting
Boss Liu took a closer look at the lobsters in the reservoir.
Not to mention, the lobsters here are beautiful in color, very clean, and the tail meat is particularly plump.
It is the best fresh shrimp that is rarely seen.
But the price is too high.
Boss Liu's business is mainly around Spring City, and the consumption level is quite different compared to Huacheng.
Although Huacheng is a mountainous city, its per capita income ranks high among cities in Sichuan. Boss Zhang’s business is mainly in Huacheng, and he also supplies to some cities in Yunnan...
When you see high-quality crayfish, you can give a slightly higher price.
In the end, Boss Liu only gave me 26 yuan per catty, which was all-inclusive, without any choice.
The price was a little lower and the negotiation failed.
"I'm sorry, your trip was in vain." Xiaomian's father gave Boss Liu a gift.
Boss Liu smiled and said: "If crayfish become cheaper in the future, please contact me again."
Ye Mo handed Boss Liu cigarettes and said, "I will increase the scale of breeding next year and will contact you then."
"Going back." Boss Liu took the cigarette with a smile and went back to the car.
Lin Shan still didn't believe that Ye Mo's crayfish could be sold for 33.5 yuan per catty. They used to sell crayfish in a large pond there, and Lin Shan even went to see them. The big green shrimps were only 26 yuan per catty.
"The price has been negotiated." Ye Mo said and called Liu Wenhua: "Hey, Mr. Liu, are you free?"
"available."
"The crayfish fishing here will start tomorrow. The price is our previous price. Is there no problem?" Ye Mo said.
Liu Wenhua laughed: "No problem. Daqing is 33.5 yuan, Zhongqing is 26.5 yuan."
"If you are free this afternoon, I will go over to you to sign the contract." Ye Mo said.
"Just have a verbal contract, don't make it so formal." Liu Wenhua said: "I will go to your place in the afternoon, take an important customer over to have a look, and pay you a deposit of 100,000 yuan, how about it?
"
Oral contract...
"Okay." Ye Mo smiled and nodded.
The verbal contract Liu Wenhua said was not binding. The price he gave was very high. In the lobster market, prices are often changing.
You can also pay a deposit of RMB 100,000 first...
It's already past ten o'clock.
Ye Mo first turned off the drip irrigation. Until now, the temperature at noon that day was still very high and a bit hot.
Noon time is not suitable for watering fruit trees.
When he got home, Ye Mo made tea for everyone.
"Where's Xiaomian?" Lin Xiaolin asked.
"Over at the production team, drive the excavator." Ye Mo served the brewed tea to everyone.
"It's time. Isn't the business over there yet?" Xiaomian's father asked.
"We still have to be busy for more than ten days." Ye Mo said.
Some of the orchards by the production team are already finished. Some are still being pruned...
The progress of the mango orchard is fast. The progress of the pomegranate orchard is slow.
Pomegranate orchards require a lot of digging holes, and there are many slopes.
Digging holes, backfilling... these tasks are much slower than expected. However, no one is dissatisfied. After all, hiring Ye Mo's excavator is much cheaper.
When it comes to fertilizing fruit trees, the skills are no different.
After pouring the tea, Ye Mo got up and went to the refrigerator to get some pomegranates.
These are pomegranates from Tang Xun's family. They have been kept in the refrigerator and have not been eaten yet.
After sitting at home for a while, Ye Mo suggested going over to see Lin Xiaomian.
Five people and one car went to the production team.
Spacious asphalt roads, beautiful houses. When I came to the pomegranate orchard, I heard about the excavator business...
Judging from the sound, the excavator is inside the pomegranate orchard, at least a hundred meters away from the roadside.
"The orchard here is really big." Lin Xiaolin said.
Ye Mo smiled: "It's quite big."
"How much did the orchards here cost per acre at that time?" Lin Shan asked.
"More than 20,000." Ye Mo said.
"A bit expensive." Xiao Lin's father said.
Ye Mo took everyone into the orchard, where they found Ye Ran and Lin Xiaomian. They were sitting on the excavator, working seriously.
"Xiao Mian." Ye Mo shouted.
Lin Xiaomian turned around, stopped the excavator, and ran over with a smile: "Dad, Mom...Second Uncle...Second Brother."
"Hey." The three of them agreed with a smile.
Ye Ran also stopped the excavator and came over: "Uncle, sissy."
Xiaomian's mother introduced Lin Xiaolin and her second uncle to Ye Ran...
Ye Ran also called his second uncle.
"This is my second brother, Lin Xiaolin." Lin Xiaomian introduced.
"Second brother." Ye Ran shouted with a smile.
Lin Xiaolin looked at the beautiful Ye Ran, feeling a little embarrassed and responded.
After standing in the orchard for a while, Ye Mo called his mother and whispered to Xiaomian: "Take your parents and uncle to sit at home."
"Gaoshanping or?"
"My parents' side." Ye Mo said.
"Yeah." Lin Xiaomian nodded: "Dad, mom, second uncle... let's go sit with Ye Mo's parents."
"You don't want to dig the excavator anymore," Xiaomian's mother said.
"Ye Mo takes over." Lin Xiaomian turned to look at Ye Ran: "Ranran, let's go back first."
"Okay." Ye Ran said.
Ye Mo went to pick up Lin Xiaomian's class.
Lin Xiaomian accompanied them to leave and said: "It's been very busy during this period. There are still hundreds of acres left to dig, and the rest of the people are urging us."
"It's good to be busy," said Xiaomian's mother.
My parents knew yesterday that Xiaomian's parents were coming today, and they had already made preparations in advance.
During this time, Ye Mo's parents have been working at the second uncle's house. Today is also...
However, Ye Ma has already finished her work and is preparing lunch at home. Second Aunt and Zhang Xia are also here to help.
Arriving at home, Dad Lin opened the trunk and took out the gifts he had brought.
Mother Ye heard the voice and went out to greet her with a smile on her face: "In-laws..."
Everyone responded with a smile.
Mother Ye accepted the gift with a smile, led everyone into the house, and then finished talking to everyone in the room.
Zhang Xia poured tea for everyone, and Ye Ma sat in the living room to greet everyone.
Lin Xiaomian went to wash some fruits and came out...
"Where's Brother Ye?" Lin Shan asked.
"Still busy in the orchard. I just called him. He should be back soon." Mother Ye said, and Father Ye appeared outside on his bicycle.
"My father-in-law, my mother-in-law." Father Ye came in with a smile on his face.
"My father-in-law." Lin Shan looked helpless.
The parents of the man's family are somewhat different from the parents of the woman's family.
Lin Shan worked here for a month, and after that month, he and Ye Qing got along very well... almost becoming buddies.
Ye Qing went over and sat next to Lin Shan: "You guys come over and help catch lobsters?"
"Xiao Mian said that Ye Mo is going to catch lobsters. We have nothing to do at home, so we came over to see if there is anyone who needs help." Lin Shan and Ye Qing knew each other well and joked: "We are not welcome."
"Welcome, how can you not be welcome?" Father Ye said with a smile: "Anyway, you live at Ye Mo's side."
Lin Shan smiled, this Ye Qing was still the same as before.
Ye Mo seems to be a more stable person and doesn't talk much. But Ye Mo's father has a much more cheerful personality... In the words of the countryside, he is the kind of person who is 'easy to play'.
