Chapter 158 These strawberries are so delicious!

"Regular strawberries are usually available from June to August, while off-season strawberries are available in March or April of the following year."

"Strawberries grown at other times don't taste very good and are difficult to grow, so few people grow them."

“But this is also an opportunity.”

Xu Yang chatted with the farm employees.

Just as he said, the strawberries he grew were red, big, plump, and tasted very good.

It would be unacceptable if these strawberries were not sold at a good price.

The employees are also full of confidence.

"Owner, there is absolutely no problem with our strawberries. They will definitely be a hit."

"Let's go and sell them. We're sure they'll all sell!"

"I've never seen strawberries this big!"

Everyone looked at the picked strawberries and started talking.

A lot of strawberries were picked and Xu Yang was busy putting them on plates.

This is what farmer’s life is like, busy looking for ways to make money.

It depends on the agricultural products grown here, which is the same as going to the mountains to work.

Maybe it’s because I smell the scent of strawberries.

Three little foxes also showed up today, standing at the door of the greenhouse, looking eagerly inside.

They waited with anticipation.

Strawberries are very attractive to them.

Foxes love to eat fruits, and legend has it that their favorite fruit is grapes, so Daji likes to feed King Zhou grapes, as she thinks they are the most delicious.

In fact, foxes’ favorite food is meat.

I just like to eat some fruits to supplement my nutrition.

Xu Yang was in a good mood when he saw the three cute little foxes.

The farm has been quite busy recently, especially these foxes, who are very active.

Three red foxes came over from time to time.

When the three red foxes are gone, the Arctic fox will quietly run in, gently let Xu Yang touch it for a while, eat some food, and then run away gracefully.

Xu Yang enjoyed stroking the fox.

Today he was busy plating the strawberries.

Xu Yang is very practical. He only put a thin layer of white sponge on a green plate and then put strawberries on it. They were very good strawberries.

If it is from some unscrupulous merchants, they will put foam or very small strawberries underneath.

After all, he wants to build a good reputation. When selling goods in this place, he has to pay attention to the impact on the folks in the village.

After the strawberries are placed, cover them with plastic wrap.

A plate of strawberries is ready.

After picking strawberries, the employees also followed to help.

Farmers often package their own fruits, and some even package as much as they grow, which is a very laborious job.

The farm keeps some for itself, some are sold loose, and all the rest are packaged on trays.

When Xu Yang saw the foxes outside, he took three strawberries and handed them to them.

"I'm busy today and don't have time to play with you. Play by yourselves!"

Xu Yang touched their heads.

Then I loaded the strawberries onto the tricycle and prepared to drive to the market.

The two dogs just watched from the sidelines, not paying any attention to the strawberries at all.

Xu Yang once fed Xiao Hei a strawberry, but the guy took one bite and spit it out.

I can only say that dogs' taste buds are quite peculiar.

These guys eat shit and don’t even eat strawberries.

Xu Yang took Ma Wen with him, as he needed someone to help him sell strawberries.

The price of strawberries fluctuates greatly.

In some places, the price is forty, fifty, or even seventy or eighty per kilogram; in some places, it's just a few dollars per kilogram; in other places, there are so many strawberries that they can be used to feed sheep.

To put it bluntly, things are valuable because they are rare.

There are few strawberries on the market this season.

If Xu Yang really wanted to sell, he only needed to shout out in the fruit market and the fruits would be snatched up immediately by the fruit merchants.

The main reason is that he also wants to make more money.

Since I have nothing to do these two days, I just pick some strawberries and sell them.

Preliminary estimates show that it can hold three trucks, and each truck can bring in at least 10,000 or 20,000 yuan in revenue.

Xu Yang priced strawberries at 40 yuan per pound.

The price depends on where you look. In the downtown area of ​​a busy city, it is an average price, but in the Northeast, it is a high price.

There are very few strawberries this season, so it's normal to spend a little more money if you want to eat some.

Soon, Xu Yang drove to the small market in the town.

The market here is very casual. Farmers bring whatever they have here to sell.

There are more people selling cabbages in this season, and there are also people selling potatoes.

Xu Yang stopped his car and hung the big sign on the ground. Then he turned on the horn and Wang Wu's voice came from inside:

"Big strawberries with milk, so sweet, no kidding! So sweet!"

Wang Wu used the local dialect when recording the sound.

When he shouted like that, many people looked over.

Xu Yang and Ma Wen were sitting next to the car.

Soon the guests arrived.

Strawberries are rare this season.

Generally, there are more in February and March, and also in June and July.

It is indeed rare for Xu Yang to sell after October.

More importantly, his strawberry is big.

Soon someone came to see.

"40 per pound? What kind of strawberry can be sold for 40 per pound? You can fly if you eat these strawberries!"

An aunt came up and asked rudely.

Some people here talk like this, and they don't mean any harm, they just think it's a bit expensive.

Xu Yang explained:

"These organic strawberries are grown with great effort in the greenhouse. Just look at the top. They are definitely worth the price."

The aunt looked at the strawberries in the basin and had to say that these strawberries were indeed big, each one was rosy and tempting. For people who like to eat strawberries, these strawberries really touched their hearts.

The aunt asked, "Okay, I'll take a pound first, and I'll taste it."

"Okay, we have it in bulk."

Marvin on the side acted quickly, picked a few large strawberries, put them in a bag, weighed one kilogram, and handed it to the aunt.

There were quite a few people watching around.

40 yuan per pound of strawberries is indeed expensive here, but there is a reason why they are expensive.

Although the economic level here is not high, ordinary people can still afford to buy a few kilograms of strawberries, and some people with better economic conditions will come and buy strawberries when they see them.

The aunt paid the money, took the strawberries, then picked up one and tasted it first.

When you take a bite, the sweet strawberry juice instantly spreads out, the fragrant flesh sways slightly in your mouth, and a milky and strawberry flavor blooms in your mouth.

In an instant, the whole person felt refreshed.

The aunt chewed it gently. She didn't expect the strawberries to be so delicious.

"Not bad!"

"What new variety is this? It tastes so good!"

My aunt was shocked.

Then, she quickly turned back. At this moment, there were several customers waiting and hesitating whether to buy. Then she saw the aunt pointing at three plates and saying:

"I want all three plates of strawberries. How much?"

Hearing this, Xu Yang responded, "Auntie, this plate of strawberries is two and a half kilograms, but it's 80 yuan, so there's a discount."

“80 per plate.”

"Okay, I want three plates, 240, right? I'll scan them for you."

Xu Yang didn't expect his aunt to be so arrogant.

This is a good thing.

Business is off to a good start!

When the people nearby saw that the customers who had already bought wanted to buy more, they also made a decision and started buying strawberries.

Xu Yang's business suddenly picked up and the strawberries sold very quickly.

Sometimes that's how business is, good things are always snatched away by others.

At this moment, there was a young couple next to them.

The woman saw the situation over there on the tricycle and asked curiously:

"Then what should I buy? It's so lively. Should I go and take a look?"

The man nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look."

The two of them took a closer look and found that they were selling strawberries, and the price was 40 yuan per pound.

How is this different from robbing money?
In summer, strawberries are only 10 yuan per pound.

"40 yuan for strawberries? So expensive?"

The woman frowned.

"Buy some. You like it very much, don't you? Let's buy a pound."

The man spoke.

"No, it's too expensive."

"Don't worry, if so many people buy it, it must be a good thing."

The man walked in, spent 40 yuan, and bought a pound of strawberries.

The two of them started eating right away.

When they tasted the delicious strawberries, a look of surprise instantly appeared in their eyes.

This strawberry is so delicious!

This feeling is really hard to describe.

Definitely the best strawberries they have ever tasted.

"Oh my god! It's delicious!"

"What kind of strawberries is he growing!"

“It tastes so good!”

The woman's face was full of surprise.

"It's really great that we can grow strawberries in this season. It seems that they are really grown ecologically!"

The man also exclaimed in praise.

Xu Yang's strawberry business is booming.

Xu Yang was also surprised by this.

After all, fruit has never been sold in large quantities, that is, it does not sell that quickly, unless it is cheap and delicious, such as watermelon at 20 cents a pound in summer, then many people will buy it.

If it is ordinary fruit, most people here will not buy it.

His strawberries are priced high, but they still sell out quickly.

Some people even decided to buy another plate immediately after eating one.

In this way, business is getting better and better.

Someone recognized Xu Yang.

"Old Xu, oh my god, it's you! I love watching your live broadcast! I always say you are a big internet celebrity in Yanji!"

A young man said in surprise.

"Hello."

Xu Yang greeted with a smile.

The people around all looked over.

Everyone was whispering, seemingly chatting about Xu Yang's identity.

"Is it the anchor who keeps a leopard? I heard he keeps a leopard in the mountains!"

"That's him. He opened his own farm. Pretty cool!"

"I heard he has connections with the Agricultural University. No wonder the strawberries he grows are so delicious!"

“It may be a high-end product that ordinary people can’t eat!”

People like gossip, and they like mysterious gossip, and they will also adapt it according to their own ideas.

Things often get outrageous.

But Xu Yang didn't care.

As long as strawberries are indeed popular, that's enough.

“It’s selling pretty well.”

Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

If no one buys his products at the stall here, he will be under a lot of pressure.

I've thought about this before.

After all, as a farmer, you bear a lot of pressure. It feels very uncomfortable to see that the crops you have worked so hard to grow cannot be sold.

Now everything was going well and he felt better.

"Owner, we have all tasted our strawberries, so there is no problem."

"Such a good greenhouse uses good soil and fertilizer, and is well cared for."

"It's normal to sell it at a higher price."

Marvin said again from the side.

The cost of growing greenhouse strawberries is relatively high, especially out of season.

The delicious strawberries grown by Xu Yang are definitely worth the money!
