Alpine Orchard - Chapter 106

[Chapter 106]

eating watermelon, Ye Mo took a group of people to Jiabao Orchard for a stroll.

Jiabao Orchard has always had ripe fruits, but not many. It is picked every few days, and it can pick a few catties.

Some of the Jiabao fruits here are very large, only a little smaller than a table tennis ball. The skin is thin, the flesh is thick, juicy and full of flavour.

The oversized gerberas are rare.

Although Jiabao fruit has been ripening all the time, the quantity is not much.

If it is picked once every seven or eight days, it can weigh four to five catties each time. The most important thing is the birds, which are too harmful.

If there were no wild birds to harm these fruits, they would be picked once every seven or eight days, and they would probably weigh about ten catties. The most important thing is that the dozen or so big trees have begun to bloom and bear fruit again.

Small Jiabao fruit trees are better than the large number.

Gao Yuan only saw the watermelon yesterday, but never the Jiabao Orchard. Tasted the taste, this Jiabao fruit is quite good.

“Jiabao fruit is very good, with high sweetness and rich flavor. But the quantity is too small.” Gao Yuan said, “I can give you 75 yuan per catty for large fruit. 45 yuan for medium fruit and 30 yuan for small fruit. ”

“Okay.” Ye Mo nodded.

Large Jiabao fruit can be sold for more than 100 yuan per catty. Only a few high-end fruit shops and online stores sell it.

The big Jiabao fruit here is bigger than the big fruit on the Internet. But asking Ye Mo to do terminal sales, the cost price to pay is obviously not worthwhile.

Some high-end fruit shops in Huacheng sell ordinary Jiabao fruit at a price of fifty or sixty yuan per catty. When it is cheap, you can buy it for thirty or forty yuan per catty.

After the Jiabao fruit matures, the storage period is too short, and there are no such things in many places. Jiabao fruit sold online is basically shipped by air…

Gao Yuan’s quotation is higher than Ye Mo’s expected price.

These Jiabao fruits, according to Ye Mo’s expectation, can be sold for twenty or thirty yuan per catty… Regardless of the size of the fruit, together.

Gao Yuan and the others picked some Jiabao fruits and wanted to give Ye Mo money, but Ye Mo waved his hand and confiscated their money.

“There are not many Jiabao fruits now. When there are more, I will pick them and send them to you directly.” Ye Mo said.

“Okay. The watermelons on your side should be picked when they are seven or eight ripe, not fully ripe. They should be picked in a few days. I will let the car come and pull them.” Gao Yuan said.

“Okay… go slowly.” Seeing them getting into the car, Ye Mo shouted.

I only ate a little bit of the 80-jin watermelon that I opened just now.

The watermelon is too big to eat much at all.

Jumbo watermelons are hard to sell.

If it is more than 70 catties, it can be regarded as a special melon. Some people think it is rare and will buy it.

But few people would buy a large watermelon weighing fifty to sixty catties, and it wasn’t a particularly rare item. It’s too big, you can’t finish it when you buy it back.

Ye Mo loaded the remaining watermelons into the car and went to the production team. Give some to Xiaomian’s parents, and some to Ye Ran and Lin Xiaomian. They were digging trenches, burying water pipes… followed by some people filling water pipes.

Generally speaking, in summer… Eating watermelon is refreshing, and one person can eat four or five catties, or even more. But eating too much can cause diarrhea.

Eat two or three catties, almost suitable.

More than 80 catties of watermelon are enough for thirty or forty people to eat.

…

With the continuous high temperature in the next few days, the watermelons in the fields are ripening very quickly.

Watermelons weighing less than 70 catties have begun to be picked.

There are a total of 30 plants, Ye Mo and the others ate some of them, and there are still 96 watermelons left on them.

Ye Mo kept 20 for himself to eat, and these 20 were all watermelons weighing fifty to sixty catties. Watermelons weighing less than 70 catties are sold as regular melons, and watermelons weighing 50 or 60 catties are too big. Except for some units with a lot of people will buy. Ordinary families will not buy such a large watermelon…

2.5 yuan per catty, the first batch sold for 6,500 yuan.

The rest of the fields are all extra-large watermelons, weighing more than 70 catties, and they were all picked after a few days.

A total of 44 large watermelons ranging from 70 to 150 catties sold for 47,300 yuan.

There are a total of 20 melons weighing more than 150 catties.

Ye Mo wanted to save the two largest melons for seeding, so he only sold 18 of them. On average, each melon cost more than 4,000 yuan. It sold for 76,000 yuan.

The 18 melons were printed with red letters on them, with words like ‘climbing higher step by step’, ‘Gong Xi Fa Cai’ and ‘good luck always comes’.

Such a big watermelon must not be eaten by itself. It is used for gift giving, or for activities.

…

It’s almost noon when I get home.

Lin Xiaomian was playing with the bird at home…

This is a very rare brown-backed shrike, it seems to have recognized Lin Xiaomian as its owner. I have to come here at noon every day, but I only get close to Lin Xiaomian…

Ye Ran can get close to it occasionally.

If Ye Mo passed by, it would run away.

“Is the watermelon sold out?” Ye Ran sat beside her, playing with her phone, and asked.

“There are more than a dozen more.”

“How much did they sell for?”

Lin Xiaomian also looked over…

“A total of more than 130,000.” Ye Mo said.

Ye Ran looked envious: “How did you grow those watermelons? They grow so big. I just bought the seedlings, and I didn’t care about them.”

“Eighty plants sold for 130,000. If there were 8,000 plants, you won’t get rich overnight .” Already?” Ye Ran said.

Ye Mo rolled his eyes: “Eight thousand plants, it’s about the same as becoming an immortal in the same place.”

If there are eight thousand plants, each plant has one melon… that’s eight thousand.

If the quantity is too large, the price will definitely not be able to be sold. At that time, it will cost two yuan per catty, and no one will ask for it. One yuan per catty, maybe…

Ye Mo did some calculations, if it costs one yuan per catty, as long as they can be sold out, there will be millions of dollars in income.

Don’t think about it this year.

Wait until next year and make good use of it.

“Ye Mo, come over and have a look, how about choosing these two sets of sofas?” Dad shouted.

The decoration of the home is about to be done, and now it is time to choose the furniture.

Fabric sofa, light gray, eight-piece set + coffee table + TV cabinet, 8,000 yuan.

The total width of 3.7 meters…

“Almost, it’s pretty,” Ye Mo said.

If you go to the furniture city to buy it, the price will be much more expensive.

Ye Mo helped his father choose the bed, wardrobe, and various furniture… It cost more than 50,000 yuan in total.

Furniture, expensive and cheap.

To be honest, Ye Mo also wants to build a house.

Now this house is not small, but the problem of layout, it seems that the space of the house is very small. There is no balcony yet…

The furniture, it is also the furniture left by the previous owner.

But now I don’t have enough money.

Ye Mo has seen mansions before, but the one before… Until now, Ye Mo still thinks about it.

I have seen the large space and layout of the mansion. Living in a small house, I feel that everything is wrong.

Lunch is ready.

Ye Mo brought out the beer…

“No drinking, I’ll drive to the city later.” Ye Ran said.

“I don’t drink anymore.” Lin Xiaomian shook her head and patted her belly, “I feel like I’ve grown a little belly.”

“What are you doing in the city?” Ye Mo asked.

“The water pipes are finished. I have nothing to do later. I’ll go back to the city for a few days and do some hair and nail art.” Ye Ran said and looked at Lin Xiaomian: “Shall we play together in the city?”

Lin Xiaomian nodded slightly, looking at Ye Mo: “Go to the city to play?”

“No time. Tang Xun asked me to go over and help him dig a swimming pool, and it will be dug out tomorrow.” Ye Mo said. Tang Xun planned to dig a swimming pool. The weather here is hot, so he dug a swimming pool for their two children to play.

The construction progress of Tang Xun’s house is also very fast.

The houses of his parents and father-in-law have already been sealed. Tang Xun’s house was also built to the second floor.

“Then let’s play by ourselves,” Lin Xiaomian said.

“Yeah.” Ye Ran nodded: “Do the hair first in the afternoon, or do the manicure first? After driving the excavator for so long, my fingernails are all black.”

“Mine too…”
