The bright red and plump peaches on the booth, two rings bigger than a fist, attracted the attention of many people, but many people just waited and watched curiously, turned their heads and left when they saw the price.
The aunt who sold green onions next to him said kindly: "Boy, they come to the place where the stalls are set up to buy things because they want to buy cheap ones. You can't sell a few catties for a year at this price."
Indeed, the normal peach ripening season is in August and September.
But with the advancement of the times, many peaches such as 'Yuandong Dabai', 'Zhongnong Jinhui', and 'Zhongyou No. 4' have appeared in the folk. They bloom in mid-April and bear fruit around June. The peaches of these brands are large and fragrant. Jiangbei City There are many people introduced.
As for Jiangbei City, there are also peaches locally, but they haven't reached the ripe season yet.
Now Lin Yi's peaches cost 25 yuan a catty, and the aunt next door thinks it's outrageous.
Although it is big, bright and plump, it looks similar to the fairy peach in the TV series, but this is not a big brand. Who would spend 25 yuan a catty to buy fruit at a stall?
Lin Yi smiled, but did not explain.
His peaches are watered with the spiritual dew in the mythical world of Journey to the West, how can they be compared with those peaches on the market?
Time passed slowly, and still no one came to buy anything. Even if there were customers, they just curiously looked at the peach that was close to the size of a palm, and then put it back.
On the contrary, the aunt next to her sold a lot of chopped green onion, garlic and ginger, and she was still trying to persuade Lin Yi to lower the price.
Near noon, there are more and more people in the farmer's market, and many aunts and uncles who buy vegetables are also taking their grandchildren to stroll around with vegetable baskets.
Seeing that there were more and more people, Lin Yi cut several huge peaches in half with a knife and placed them for people to try.
"Guy paper, if the price drops, you can sell it out today."
The aunt next to her kindly pointed out again, and some nearby stall owners laughed a lot, as if they were laughing that young people would not be able to do business.
Lin Yi smiled and did not reply, and continued to yell. Many people were interested at first, but they shook their heads and left after seeing the price.
At this price, you can almost buy durians, but what kind of peaches can you eat?
Suddenly, a child ran over and looked at Tao Zi with bright eyes: "Brother, these peaches are so big, are they the flat peaches in the Heavenly Palace that the Monkey King is making trouble in the Heavenly Palace?"
"Yes, do you want to try it?"
Lin Yi smiled gently, peeled off a large piece of fruit pulp and handed it to this tiger-headed little doll with a bamboo stick.
The kid got close to the pulp and smelled it, his eyes lit up instantly, and he started to eat it with relish, the juice was flowing.
"Xiaobao! Xiaobao, don't run around, grandma won't find you later."
An old woman trotted after her anxiously. She was relieved when she saw the child, but her eyes widened in the next moment: "Xiaobao, what are you eating?"
"Grandma, I'm eating peaches. The peaches sold by big brother are delicious."
The child smiled happily: "Grandma, can I buy some peaches to eat back? These are the flat peaches that Monkey King ate when he made a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace!"
"Good! Good! Grandma will buy you whatever you want!"
The old grandma agreed excitedly, and hurriedly picked a lot of peaches and put them in the basket, which made the aunt who was selling green onions a little puzzled: "Auntie, these peaches are 25 yuan a catty, so expensive, are you willing to buy them?"
"Oh, you don't know that I am a picky eater since I was a child, and I don't like fruits and vegetables. Now I finally come across my favorite fruit, how can I not buy it?"
"The grandson is my heart, he rarely wants to eat fruit, how can I not buy it?"
"As elders, don't we just want to see children happy? It's okay to spend some money. Anyway, eating fruit is better than eating snacks."
"Grandma, you can try a piece. My peach is a natural and pollution-free fruit. You can buy it back with confidence."
Lin Yi smiled and handed over a piece of peach with a toothpick.
The old grandma took two bites in doubt, her face froze immediately, and the next moment she finished eating the peaches in three or two bites, eating with relish, and said with emotion: "I have lived for so many years, and I have never eaten such sweet and plump peaches, which are bigger than those. The branded ones are much more delicious, I want twenty catties!"
"Auntie, is it really that delicious?"
"It's really delicious. My son runs a company. Many people give gifts during the holidays. I have also tasted the peaches of those big brands. Apart from the good looks, even this guy is not even one-tenth of the taste. I Don’t buy more now, lad, who will you buy next time?”
The farmer's market was crowded at noon, and this scene was seen by many people nearby, who came to try it out of curiosity, but they almost swallowed their tongues because of the delicious food.
Sure enough, this peach is really delicious!
"Hey, it's the first time I've seen such a sweet and delicious peach. I don't know what brand of peach it is!"
"It's really sweet, refreshing and crispy, not hard, delicious and juicy, the boss will give me five catties!"
"I want ten pounds!"
"Bring me eight catties!"
Unknowingly, more and more people surrounded the stall, one by one scrambling to buy peaches first, and even the aunt was stunned by the side, and then came to help.
More than 300 catties of peaches that could not be sold in the morning were sold out in less than half an hour.
These are 25 yuan a catty of peaches!
Hey, the whole van of peaches is sold out, it must be three or four hundred catties, right?
Is it equivalent to earning tens of thousands of yuan in one morning?
Many stall owners even came to smoke and asked about the purchase channel of peaches, and left disappointed when they heard that they were grown from their own gardens.
The peaches were all sold out, so Lin Yi offered two hundred yuan to the aunt who sold the green onions who helped out just now. After a while, the other party only accepted the money, and happily cleaned up the garbage left by the booth with Lin Yi.
After casually counting the cash and scanning the QR code, Lin Yi found that these peaches were sold for more than 8000 yuan, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Sure enough, as long as there are good things, there will be a market.
When cleaning up the trash from the booth, he didn't expect a loud noise from a distance. Lin Yi heard the word 'robbery' and couldn't help but look up.
Then I saw the noisy crowd giving way one after another. A yellow-haired man with dyed hair and a gold chain was holding a knife in one hand and clutching a dilapidated money bag in the other. .
Behind, a girl cried and chased, extremely helpless.
Lin Yi grabbed his fist and strode towards the place where Huang Mao came from, but was stopped by the onion seller next to him: "Young man, that man doesn't look like a good person, and he still holds a knife, don't go, too It's dangerous!"
"Everyone who does good deeds these days suffers, why should you?"
Many people around were hiding and watching, watching the weak girl helplessly crying and chasing but not daring to go forward, and many people had joking expressions on their faces.
Lin Yi ignored it, and stood coldly on the road that Huangmao must pass.
"Fuck, get out of here, or I will stab you to death!"
Huang Mao yelled, and stared at Lin Yi fiercely with fierce eyes. When he saw the other party standing there in a daze, he couldn't help yelling, and actually took out a knife and stabbed Lin Yi.
This scene frightened many passers-by to scream. The timid closed their eyes and dared not watch, as if they had already seen the scene of blood splashing.
"court death!"
Lin Yi's eyes were cold, he knocked out the knife casually, picked up Huang Mao with one hand, and smashed it heavily on the ground.
Pfft!
There was a strong impact on the back and the ground, and the painful yellow hair curled up on the ground, wailing, and he didn't even have the strength to move.
Seeing this scene, the crowd made a noise.
What the fuck?
Randomly picked up a person who rushed over?
Is this making a movie, or is it legendary kung fu?
Chapter 22 Simple and honest girls, frequent accidents?
There was a commotion in the crowd, and the next moment applause roared like thunder.
Many people looked at that tall and handsome boy with a sense of awe. They never imagined that besides being handsome, he was actually so skilled!
"Did someone call the police?"
Lin Yi picked up the wallet in Huang Mao's hand and looked at it.
This wallet looks like a kid's canvas wallet, with the cartoon pattern of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" that was popular in the north and south of the country ten years ago printed on it, but the pattern has peeled off a lot, and it looks like a style from many years ago.
Not long after Lin Yi heard crying, the girl hurried over.
This girl was wearing a long peaked cap, so she couldn't see her face clearly, but her skin was fair, she was tall and thin, she was wearing white-washed jeans and a T-shirt, and she was pinching her little hands and stammering anxiously. Knowing what to say, he didn't dare to look at him, as if he was very timid.
"Hello, your wallet."
Lin Yi handed over the cartoon wallet. The girl was very nervous. After taking the wallet, she lowered her head and said a slight 'thank you', holding on to the wallet tightly like a rare treasure.
Not long after, the siren sounded, and several police officers came to inquire, interviewed the masses, and watched the robbers, and they generally knew the ins and outs of the matter.
In the end, Lin Yi and the girl went to the police station to take notes. After the resolution, a police officer sent them out and said earnestly: "Young man, it is a good thing to help others. It's not that we don't advocate helping others, but we must ensure our own safety while helping others. See what is righteous and brave."
"The one who robbed the money just now sucked too much, and he still had a knife in his hand. If he stabbed you, what should you do?"
"Thank you Officer Zhang, let's go back first."
After some conversation, Lin Yi and the girl left, went to the parking lot and started the van to leave. On the way, they saw a girl who hadn't gone far, so they stopped and honked: "Shen Ruxuan, where are you going?"
On the sidewalk, Shen Ruxuan, who was walking quietly with her head down, suddenly heard the sound of a horn. She trembled slightly while clutching her wallet. When she realized that it was the young man who had helped her just now, she pursed her lips in silence for a moment before saying, "I... deposit money in the bank."
"I'm with you?"
Sensing the girl's fear, Lin Yi smiled and said, "I'll watch the wind for you, if any bad guy comes, I'll beat him away."
Shen Ruxuan hesitated for a moment, but Lin Yi took the initiative to open the car door and said with a gentle smile: "Why, my van is too old and I look down on it, so why don't you come up?"
Hearing this sentence, Shen Ruxuan shook her head anxiously in embarrassment: "No, no, I'm afraid to trouble you."
"What's the trouble? Just now I heard that you are a student of Jiangbei University? I am also a student of Jiangbei University. I just graduated this year. Speaking of which, you still call me Senior Brother."
Lin Yi saw the girl sitting on the co-pilot blankly with her head down and silent, so she took the initiative to help the other party pull up her seat belt.
The moment he approached, he could fully perceive Shen Ruxuan's sudden rapid breathing and slightly trembling body with his keen senses, and he was only relieved when he saw him pull the seat belt.
Driving towards the nearby self-service bank, Lin Yi learned that the other party was a freshman from Sichuan and Chongqing who came to Jiangbei City to study. Because of the summer vacation, he stayed in Jiangbei City to do a summer job. Today he paid some wages, so he came to the bank Transfer money home, did not expect to be robbed.
Hearing this, Lin Yi said in disbelief: "Isn't it all paid by mobile phone transfer now?"
Shen Ruxuan was a little silent, she lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes without saying anything, and wearing a peaked cap, Lin Yi couldn't see her expression, so she had no choice but to stop asking.
After depositing money at the self-service bank, Shen Ruxuan walked to an empty corner, took out an old Nokia mobile phone from her pocket, and said softly, "Hello, Aunt Zhao? I just transferred the money to your account. If you have time, please bring it up to my mother-in-law, thank you..."
Lin Yi is now stepping into the practice, and his six senses have been greatly improved. He heard the conversation clearly, recalled Shen Ruxuan's appearance and contact, and was a little silent.
Thinking about it now, this girl is tall and thin, but the ponytail behind the peaked cap is a little yellow. He thought she had dyed her hair, maybe she was malnourished?
Otherwise, in this era, who would still use the old Nokia and cartoon wallets used by children?
Who still wears faded jeans and fuzzy T-shirts?
Who stays in a distant country to do a summer job during the summer vacation and save money to send back home? Most people are almost going to travel or lie flat to spend their leisure vacation?
And the fear and embarrassment of the other party, could it be some small inferiority complex in my heart?
He remembered that when he was a child, the parents of a playmate’s family often taught him not to cause trouble, not to be compensated, not to be offended, to be honest and responsible, and often scolded the child for a little thing, and said it was for the child’s good.
Later, when I saw my playmate again, the other party was obsequious, silent and dull, and his personality and the naughty and lively figure in his childhood could no longer overlap.
Presumably this Shen Xuemei is a little inferior, timid and introverted because of family reasons.
Lin Yi couldn't help laughing at the old cartoon wallet, the washed white jeans, the hands full of calluses, and the scene in front of him.
He is a bit of a meat eater.
Looking at it again, Lin Yi didn't think the girl was pretending, and smiled and said to send her back to school.
Shen Ruxuan was silent for a long time, and finally took a deep breath, as if she had made some important decision: "You, hello, do you have time? I would like to treat you to a cup of milk tea."
When talking, he lowered his head and pinched the corner of his clothes, not daring to meet Lin Yi's eyes.
"Thank you, but I don't like milk tea very much... okay, have a cup?"
Lin Yi saw the other party's tightly pinched fingers and pale face under the peaked cap, so he couldn't help agreeing, but asked curiously, "Why do you want to invite me to drink milk tea?"
"My mother-in-law said that others have helped us, and we should go back with gratitude."
Shen Ruxuan smiled gently, her voice was pleasant and gentle, and she seemed relieved, as if she didn't want to owe others favors.
Then Lin Yi walked with the little girl, passing by several bright and richly decorated shops. Shen Ruxuan passed by with her head down in silence. In the end, she couldn't see any ordinary shops. Shen Ruxuan gritted her teeth and took Lin Yi to this shop. Tea' away, silently looking at the menu.
Because the menu is too expensive.
Lin Yi didn't speak, and could feel that the girl was starting to feel embarrassed and nervous.
It seems that the other party has never been to this kind of shop to drink milk tea, or that he has never drank milk tea since he was a child, just like when he was a child and ran to KFC with thousands of pocket money, he was afraid that he would not have money.
"What do you want to drink?"
Shen Ruxuan asked softly.
