Chapter 41 Cantaloupe, the King of Melons

Chapter 41 Cantaloupe, the King of Melons

Jiang Ci's eyes lit up,

If you weigh 500 kilograms per day, that’s 50 taels per day. This business can be done!

Using the cover of the basket on his back, Jiang Ci changed all the fruits he had prepared to sell at the stall today in the space.

"Butler Sun asked for hundreds of kilograms of strawberries and apples, so we don't have much left at home for the time being!"

Shopkeeper Liu was a little anxious: "Then when can your relative bring this fruit from the capital again?"

Yesterday, when the restaurant's shopkeeper went to town to buy groceries, he bought him 10 kilograms of strawberries and 20 kilograms of fruit. He tasted it and then asked the policeman in charge to deliver the fruit to the tables of the dignitaries who are regular customers of the restaurant.

After that, he was chased by the group of dignitaries for fruits.

After his investigation, he found out that the owner of the fruit stall was a farmer with a large red birthmark on his face, and the fruit came from the capital, so the daily limit was 10 kilograms of strawberries and 20 kilograms of apples, which were extremely rare!

I just happened to be dozing off and brought him a pillow. As soon as he went out today, he met this farmer. When he saw the red fruits on the cart, he regretted it now. He didn't need to worry about his demeanor at that time, so he cut off the fruits on the cart.

How wonderful it would be!

"Shopkeeper, don't worry, although there are no more strawberries and apples in my house, there are still some other fruits! Shopkeeper, please take a look at this first!"

Jiang Ci took out the cantaloupe from the basket on his back,

I saw that the cantaloupe was oval in shape, and its light green skin was covered with white stripes. It felt a little rough, like pine bark, but its unique appearance gave people a sense of nobility.

a feeling of.

Sure enough, Shopkeeper Wang was immediately attracted by his attention.

"Shopkeeper Liu, can you ask the waiter to bring you a knife?"

Shopkeeper Wang raised his hand, and after a moment, a young boy presented him with a knife.

Jiang Ci cut the melon in the middle, and instantly, a refreshing fragrance came out. The yellow-orange flesh inside was evenly covered with seeds, making people want to take a bite.

"Shopkeeper Liu, please!" Jiang Ci handed over a piece of melon with both hands.

Shopkeeper Liu quickly took it, took a bite, and his mouth was filled with sweet juice. When he ate it again, the taste changed a little, with the sweetness of sucrose and the crispness of cucumber, which was endlessly memorable.

Shopkeeper Liu ate two pieces in succession and praised them endlessly: "This fruit is no worse than those two fruits!"

Jiang Ci smiled. In restaurants in the 21st century, the last dish is usually a fruit plate. This cantaloupe is perfect for the dinner table.

"May I ask, girl, what is the name of this thing?"

"The name of this fruit is cantaloupe. This melon is not only sweet, but also rich in nutritional value. People in the capital call it the king of melons. There are rumors that eating it regularly can cure diseases and prolong life."

"Is this true?" Shopkeeper Wang's little eyes were shining.

"If Shopkeeper Liu doesn't believe it, can you tell if you try it? Besides, even if we don't talk about nutritional value, this melon is a novel species after all, and it tastes so good that Shopkeeper Liu will not suffer any loss!"

"What's the price of this melon?"

"500 yuan per pound!" Jiang Ci stretched out five fingers.

Jiang Ci spoke carelessly, but Shopkeeper Liu was frightened when he heard it!

500 yuan per catty, this melon is about 4-5 catties, which is equivalent to at least 2 taels of silver per melon.

It’s several times more expensive than his restaurant’s signature dishes!

However, this also proves that he can earn more~

Shopkeeper Wang stroked his mustache and smiled with bright eyes.

"Okay! Girl, please give me 500 kilograms a day first!"

"Um...shopkeeper Liu, won't you negotiate the price?" Even Jiang Ci didn't expect things to go so smoothly, so he couldn't help but react.

Unexpectedly, shopkeeper Liu waved his hand indifferently, "I, Liu Fugui, will not go out to squeeze farmers' money. After all, the business is long-term. If the girl really wants to cheat me, the only one who will regret it in the end is the girl! Yes!

The girl is the icing on the cake for my Jinxiu Restaurant. Without the girl, my Jinxiu Restaurant is still the No. 1 restaurant in the town, but the girl may not have such a smooth life in the future!"

Jiang Ci smiled after hearing this. No wonder he was able to achieve the reputation of the first restaurant in the town. He really had two brushes.

She likes to communicate with people who are not muddled!

However, this also reminded her that ordinary people are not guilty of carrying the jade. As long as someone is interested in investigating, her story that the fruit came from the capital will be exposed!

She still has to take her fruit through a clear path, and it is a clear path that everyone can see!

It would be best to find a big backer after that...

Before these two things are accomplished, it is best not to show off her fruit on the market. It would be nice to have two customers, Shopkeeper Liu and Butler Sun!

Thinking of this, Jiang Ci pretended to sigh and said: "My relatives only bring me a few thousand kilograms of fruit at a time. It seems that once I supply the fruit to Shopkeeper Liu's restaurant, my fruit stall will not be able to operate for the time being."

It’s all over the town!”

Shopkeeper Liu couldn't help but be overjoyed after hearing this. As long as the girl didn't sell it in the town, he would have obtained the monopoly of the fruit. It seemed that he could raise the price of the fruit appropriately.

With this thought in his mind, shopkeeper Liu couldn't help but smile: "That will save the girl a lot of trouble!"

A dark light flashed across Jiang Ci's eyes,

This old fox!

Before leaving, Jiang Ci seemed to suddenly think of something: "Shopkeeper Liu, do you accept game in this restaurant?"

Shopkeeper Liu was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on a businessman's fake smile: "Although our restaurant has a fixed source of game, if the girl wants to sell some game, Liu will naturally give her the face!"

Anyway, it’s just one or two game,

His huge restaurant is not too big to digest!

"Then may I ask the shopkeeper to collect this?" Jiang Ci took out the bamboo rat from the space with the help of the basket on his back.

When he saw that thing, Shopkeeper Liu took a few steps back in shock: "Old...old, old, old mouse! Girl, although this mouse is indeed fat and handsome, my restaurant is a serious restaurant and I can't help the girl deal with this."

Rat!"

When Jiang Ci looked at the thing in his hand, his eyes widened in shock.

Good guy, she just left this bamboo rat overnight. What did this thing eat inside?

Surprisingly, they have grown so fat and strong. The bamboo rats that used to weigh about 3 kilograms each are now weighing 5 or 6 kilograms...

Rao was suspicious in his heart, but there was no trace of shock on his face. He just said calmly: "Shopkeeper Liu, this is not a mouse, this is a bamboo rat. It has grown up eating bamboo, and the nutritional value contained in its body is extremely high.

Moreover, the meat is delicious, so it’s useless to say more. Can I use the kitchen?”

Although shopkeeper Liu was murmuring in his heart, because there was not much traffic in the restaurant in the morning, he could indeed free up this time in the kitchen.

After final consideration, someone took Jiang Ci into the kitchen. Anyway, it was up to him to decide whether to buy the game or not!

It’s true that he is rich, but he is not a fool!

In just two sticks of incense, shopkeeper Liu was invited into the kitchen by his servants.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, a delicious smell hit his nostrils. Shopkeeper Liu went into the kitchen and found that the person cooking was his own chef. He was looking at the meat in the pot with a look of surprise on his face.

The farmer, on the other hand, was lying on the bamboo chair, swaying leisurely, feeling so happy.

Liu Fugui laughed angrily,

This girl is better at handling his chef than he is.
