Chapter 487 New variety of kiwi fruit launched (11,400) Good night
In the evening, when his wife came back, she asked him what the city leaders thought of their orchard.
Cao Shujie was curious and asked his wife: "Why don't you ask the city leaders what they think of our Caojiazhuang?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Shujie heard his wife Cheng Xiaolin say: "What do I care about Caojiazhuang? I only care about whether our family is living well. The development of Caojiazhuang is something you village committee leaders should consider."
This answer was so amazing that Cao Shujie suddenly felt that his wife was quite cute: "That Mayor Zhu has a high degree of recognition of our orchard."
"I originally planned that our orchard could be on the news tonight, which would save publicity expenses, but the news was not broadcast tonight." Cao Shujie felt a little regretful.
Cheng Xiaolin then said: "This isn't that fast, is it?"
"They just arrived today. No matter how fast the editing is, it will be broadcast tomorrow. Maybe there are other things that have delayed it, and it will be a few days later."
Cao Shujie felt a little relieved when he heard his wife say this.
Then I thought about whether I was too utilitarian in this matter?
But it is better to live a more practical life.
In the evening, Cao Shujie played with his daughter for a while. After Mengmeng fell asleep, Cao Shujie also started to feel sleepy.
Before going to bed, Cheng Xiaolin told her husband that the kiwi fruits were almost ripe and asked him to prepare for picking.
"Honey, don't worry. Kiwis are different from strawberries. They will be almost ripe next month and can be picked in half a month at most." Cao Shujie said.
Strawberries bloom and bear fruit randomly, and the entire fruiting cycle lasts for 2 to 3 months. If it is a strawberry grown in a greenhouse, the time may be longer and the yield will be higher.
But the kiwi fruit is different, this time they are almost ripe.
If there are enough people, they may be picked in a week or a few days, and the rest will have to wait until next year to bear fruit.
"It's getting late, go to bed quickly. If you have anything to do, you'll be busy tomorrow." Cao Shujie urged his wife.
Time is the most elusive thing. Unknowingly, July disappeared once again in my life.
When August came quietly, the continuous high temperature did not decrease. On the contrary, as time went by, the temperature became higher.
And along with the high temperature, the weather is becoming more and more abnormal.
The weather forecast has been emphasizing that there will be typhoons in the near future, accompanied by heavy rain warnings. Cao Shujie was worried for a while at first, fearing that there would be another heavy rain like last time.
The kiwi fruit harvest period is approaching, and there will be another natural disaster. The kiwi fruit output in Cao Shujie's orchard will be much less this year.
Although the good weather forecast kept predicting bad weather, the bad weather never came.
With the high temperature these days, Mengmeng doesn’t want to go out.
She stayed at home and played with her grandfather.
She learned poker and chess from her grandfather, but Mengmeng would regret playing chess most of the time, and Cao Zhenghu was so troubled that he no longer wanted to play chess with his great-granddaughter.
"Grandpa, please take me out to play." Mengmeng couldn't stay at home.
No matter how hot the weather is, it doesn't matter to her, as long as she's not at home.
Cheng Xiaolin told her several times, but Mengmeng was basically disobedient, but she didn't dare to blatantly violate the rules set by her mother. She pouted her lips and looked pitiful.
Cao Shujie said to his daughter: "Mengmeng, if you find it boring to stay at home, I will tell your teacher Li and ask her to start school for you early. Do you think that's okay?"
When Mengmeng heard her father's shameless remarks, she stamped her feet vigorously.
Mengmeng didn't know how to refute her father, but she felt that he was so shameless that he could do such a thing.
"Dad, you are so annoying." Mengmeng did not give Cao Shujie a good look.
Cao Shujie didn't care, he said: "Mengmeng, shall I take you to catch fish by the Yellow River?"
"I'm not going, it's so hot!" Mengmeng was not stupid either.
She knew it was even hotter at the Yellow River than at home.
Hearing Mengmeng say this, the whole family was amused.
On the morning of the 2nd, when Cao Shujie was about to go out, his grandfather Cao Zhenghu suddenly called him: "Shujie, come here and take a look."
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Cao Shujie thought his grandfather was not feeling well, so he quickly ran to his grandfather's side and looked up and down.
Cao Zhenghu pointed to the turned on TV and said, "I'm fine. I'm letting you watch TV."
"What's wrong with the TV?" Cao Shujie turned to look at the TV screen, and suddenly he spotted a familiar face.
That was Zhu Lingyun, the city leader who came to visit Qingshi Town at the end of last month.
At this time, Zhu Lingyun was sitting in a studio, and there was a very famous host sitting opposite her.
This program is a News World column of the Dongshan Provincial Television Channel.
Mainly for timely sharing of some major news in the province.
What Zhu Lingyun was talking about in the program was her visit to Qingshi Town and Caojiazhuang.
In this program, Zhu Lingyun shared what she saw and heard, and also talked about her feelings when visiting Qingshi Town and Caojiazhuang.
And Zhu Lingyun said in her sharing that what impressed her most were some of the things she encountered in Caojiazhuang.
In this program, Zhu Lingyun mentioned some policies implemented by Caojiazhuang to benefit the people, and also shared how Caojiazhuang achieves income and expenditure to form a balanced internal cycle.
In this program, Zhu Lingyun highlighted one person, Cao Shujie, the village director of Caojiazhuang.
Then the screen changed and Cao Shujie's photo appeared on the TV show.
This is exactly the scene when Cao Shujie shared with them the planting situation of fruit trees in the orchard and the breeding situation in the orchard when they visited Mengmeng Orchard.
Seeing this, Cao Shujie no longer knew what to say.
He was still wondering why the video of Zhu Lingyun's visit to their place had not been released, but he did not expect that this piece of news was actually put on the Provincial TV Station's News World column.
Cao Shujie didn't know what happened in the middle, but he knew that he really took advantage of it this time.
Especially when the kiwi fruits in his orchard are about to mature and be picked, this is simply God’s matchmaking!
"Shujie, I owe you a favor this time." Cheng Xiaolin said as she came from the kitchen.
Cao Shujie recognized his wife's statement, it was indeed true.
However, Zhu Lingyun is the deputy mayor of Yiling City, and he is the village director of Caojiazhuang. There is a huge gap between them.
Cao Shujie's biggest problem now is money. If he gave Zhu Lingyun money, would she dare to accept it?
"It's useless to think about it so much. Let's talk about it later." Cao Shujie took the tools and went up the mountain.
At this time, more and more people came to play in Cao Shujie's orchard.
As most of the flowers planted on the mountain have entered the flowering stage, more and more people come to take wedding photos.
When Cao Shujie came up, he saw so many people taking wedding photos, and he also had a heartfelt expression of joy on his face.
After all, these people are here to give him money.
It's a pity that even if the kiwi fruit is ripe, you can't eat it on the spot after picking it. You have to wait for it to soften slowly before you can eat it.
After entering August, there is actually another improvement in the orchard.
The antlers of the five male sika deers are ready to be cut again.
It sounds cruel to say this, but Cao Shujie is not pedantic at this time.
Judging by the time, there will be another 2 to 3 weeks before this year's second crop of deer antlers can be harvested.
Including the second crop of velvet antler, which is of lower quality than the first crop of velvet antler, Cao Shujie is not going to sell it anymore. After processing, he will cut the velvet antler into pieces and give them to his family slowly to take care of their health.
He is not short of tens of thousands of dollars.
Sure enough, as Cao Shujie had guessed, after the Dongshan Provincial TV Station's News World program was broadcast, more and more people called Cao Shujie to ask when the fruits in the orchard would mature.
At this time, his wife had not started doing online promotion, but Mengmeng Orchard became popular again this year because of the news about Zhu Lingyun.
Especially now that the summer vacation is not over yet, when many people have time.
Cao Shujie went to the orchard again to check and cut open a few fallen kiwi fruits. When he found that the flesh had turned bright yellow or light red, he knew the time had come.
On the 7th, Cao Shujie announced the ripeness of a new variety of kiwi fruit in several groups, and then he picked part of it himself, weighing about 300 kilograms.
Except for keeping part of it for myself to eat, the rest was packed into boxes and started to be sent to my customers or suppliers.
On this point, Cao Shujie has never been ambiguous.
Cao Shujie has been maintaining the relationship in Pingyuan County.
You may not need them in normal times, but no one can guarantee that there will always be no contact.
Just like people like Lian Xuezhu.
Cao Shujie personally came to deliver kiwi fruits with red hearts and kiwi fruits with yellow hearts to his home. Lian Xuezhu kept sighing as he looked at Cao Shujie.
Especially thinking about Cao Shujie's performance in front of Deputy Mayor Zhu Lingyun, Lian Xuezhu felt that Cao Shujie had truly matured and was no longer a junior who still needed his support.
"Shujie, when your company opens, you must let me know." Lian Xuezhu told him.
Cao Shujie agreed wholeheartedly.
"Uncle, I will definitely tell you when the time comes, and I will have to ask you to support me!" Cao Shujie was not polite at all and made his words clear.
He said: "If you don't come by then, I will drive over to pick you up myself."
Looking at Cao Shujie, who was still as rogue as in his impression, Lian Xuezhu was a little relieved.
Cao Shujie did not change his attitude towards him just because he met someone at the level of the deputy mayor. He still respected him so much that Lian Xuezhu felt that he really needed to reconsider his positioning relationship with Cao Shujie.
After delivering the things to Lian Xuezhu, Cao Shujie returned to Caojiazhuang without stopping and began to receive tourists who came to pick kiwi fruits.
Maybe they are regular customers, or maybe because of Zhu Lingyun’s news, plus the bonus of summer vacation, the hot weather in August can’t dampen the enthusiasm of the people who come to pick kiwi fruits at all, and the big guys are not attracted by it.
The high price of 42 yuan for kiwi fruit forced them to withdraw, and some people said it was just delicious.
At this time, Cao Shujie discovered that although the economy was in recession, there were still many rich people.
