Chapter 10 Going to the market to sell cherries

Time flies by and the market day comes again.

Last night, Wang Fang intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the cherries Zhang An had picked before. Zhang An also knew that her mother was still thinking about the cherries on the mountain.

So at dawn, Zhang An went out carrying a bamboo basket.

Although this was just to find an excuse for the origin of the space cherry, Zhang An still didn't want to raise any doubts.

Although the space is a plug-in, Zhang An does not want to use him to do anything illegal. He just wants his family to live a well-off life.

Instead of using space to make a lot of ill-gotten gains.

Because Zhang An has always felt that he is an ordinary person and his mind is sober for now, but once he has a lot of wealth, he is not sure whether he can still stay sober.

He also didn't want to cause other problems due to space exposure.

So everything is still developing quietly and low-key.

Last night it was the turn of the sixth group to keep vigil. Zhang An was supposed to go, but Zhang Jianguo did not let Zhang An go and went himself.

So I didn’t go back home until around five o’clock to go to bed.

Zhang An left the door and walked toward the mountains to the west. When he felt that it was almost done, he entered the space and picked most of the basket of cherries.

This bamboo basket is very big and can hold forty or fifty kilograms of things.

So Zhang An didn't pick enough, and then picked some branches and leaves from the tree, and covered the bamboo basket with a thick layer.

When Zhang An walked out of the space, he happened to see the rising sun breaking through the ground in the east.

Zhang An also saw the sunrise in his previous life, but it was many years later when he participated in a company team building and a group of people were playing on Mount Tai.

I got up at around three o'clock in the morning to climb the mountain. However, due to the height, not only did I feel a bit cold, but the wind was also very strong on the top of Mount Tai.

And because of the various street lights and neon signs in the city.

The sunrise doesn't look that amazing either.

In my thirties, I no longer have the intention to appreciate the scenery along the way, but more to join the group.

But when I look at the sunrise today, there are no transmission cables in the distance. The moment the sun emerges from the ground in the east, the whole earth is given color.

Probably because of the high altitude, looking from the top of the slope, you can see the sea of ​​clouds gathering in the distance in the east.

Although the sky at this moment is not completely blue, there are still some white clouds blowing in the wind.

But the scene at this time can only be described as "the sun rises in the east and is dyed with glow".

Different mentality will lead to different scenery and different feelings.

When the morning sun came out and the earth returned to its bright colors, Zhang An also went down the mountain and went home.

"So much, almost thirty kilograms." Wang Fang looked into the bamboo basket and said in surprise.

"I picked everything I could. There's no use keeping it anyway. After this year's New Year, I'll go get some trees and transplant them back to plant them at home."

Because Zhang Jianguo went on night duty last night, he is still resting now.

According to the plan, Zhang An and his mother Wang Fang went to the town to attend the market, but people from the village came to visit early in the morning.

It turned out that the second mistress in front of me was going to have some tiles removed from the roof today, so she came to ask Wang Fang to help with the cooking.

Even my father, Zhang Jianguo, would help pick up tiles when he woke up.

So Zhang An was the only one to go out on the street, so Zhang An went out with a basket of cherries on his back and a steel scale in his hand.

When he was at home, his mother taught him to pay more attention to how the cherries sold next to him were selling them and how much they were selling.

It can definitely be sold at the same price as others.

Since Zhang An was on the road alone, he no longer wanted to hide his clumsiness.

He put the basket and scale on his back into the space and walked forward quickly.

Space spring water can not only relieve physical fatigue, but drinking it for a long time can also strengthen your body.

During this time, Zhang An filled the water tank at home every day, and the family of three used space spring water to eat and drink.

So not only Zhang An, but also Zhang Jianguo and Wang Fang are in much better health. Even the slightest wrinkle on their faces has disappeared recently.

Originally, it usually took about an hour to walk to the town, but because Zhang An walked quickly, he arrived at the entrance of the town in more than half an hour.

I found a deserted corner, took out the bamboo basket and steel scale, and walked towards the place where vegetables were sold.

In Daji, there is no vegetable market yet. It may have been an unwritten habit for a long time, so there is a special place that only sells one kind of thing.

At this time, although there were still very few cherries that were not off the market, there were no people selling cherries on the street, and there were still a lot of peaches.

Before we even arrived at the location, maybe because the cherry leaves covering Zhang An's basket were too conspicuous, someone soon pulled Zhang An and asked.

"Brother, are the cherries on your back? It's covered with cherry leaves."

The person who asked the question was a woman who looked to be in her mid-20s. She was wearing a solid floral shirt on her upper body and a pair of navy blue trousers on her lower body. She looked dignified and decent overall, and she was carrying a bamboo basket in her hand.

"Yes, sister, this cherry will definitely not disappoint you, why don't you take a look first."

As he spoke, Zhang An took the other party to a side that was not blocking the road and put down the bamboo basket on his back.

The eldest sister opened the leaves and took a look, "Hey, why are your cherries so big? I have never seen such a big cherry."

"Sister, please try one. Our cherries are delicious. In fact, cherries can grow so big. The cherries from abroad are about the same size as this, but aren't cherries just European giant cherries?"

Zhang An said as he grabbed two and handed them to the eldest sister, asking her to try them first.

Zhang An exports foreign cherries, such as cherries and European cherries, which attracts many people to watch. People in this era are very interested in foreign things, especially in backward places.

In their imagination, foreign things are always very advanced and good.

"This is really delicious. It's better than anything I've ever eaten. How do you sell it?" The elder sister who tasted it asked Zhang An for the price.

"This is six yuan a pound, eldest sister."

Before Zhang An finished speaking, the onlookers commented that it was very expensive.

It is true that pork now only costs four yuan per pound, and one pound of cherries can buy one and a half pounds of pork.

But Zhang An didn't care, because his things were worth the price, and he didn't expect ordinary people to buy them.

"This is a bit expensive. Although the cherries have been taken off the market, the price is still expensive. Brother, if you want a little less, I will buy a few kilograms."

"Hey, my sister, those imported cherries cost more than ten or twenty yuan per catty. My cherries are no worse than theirs. Well, if my sister really wants to sell them, I'll give it a try. Even if

Sell ​​it to my sister for five and eight yuan, okay?"

The woman originally wanted to negotiate the price, but Zhang An said there was nothing left to say.

The woman's family is not in bad condition, and there are guests from the city at home today, so she needs to buy something to entertain the guests.

There are very few cherries now, and they were delicious just after I had them.

"Okay, then weigh me five pounds. Can you pick it yourself?"

"Sure, sister, the cherries in my house are actually all the same. You can tell after you pick them."

It seemed that the person in front of me was quite wealthy. Five pounds of cherries cost almost thirty yuan, but the other person didn't bat an eyelid.

The first one naturally led to the second one. When I saw someone buying it, a few people in the crowd came forward to try it and wanted to buy some.

Just tell Zhang An that they want five and eighty yuan, and Zhang An will definitely agree without even thinking about it.

But a few people didn't buy much, each person only bought about one or two kilograms, but it was already very good, and more people were reluctant to spend the money.
