There is a mountain in her arms

Chapter 74 An unexpected surprise

"Second brother!"

"Second Uncle Jiang!"

There were noises coming one after another outside the courtyard gate, interrupting the conversation in the room.

"Second brother, these are the snacks my mother bought for the children. There are a few less, please don't be offended!"

"Uncle Jiang, these are the eggs my wife saved. They are for your health."

"These are the bamboo shoots pickled by my wife. I'll give them to you to try."

……

In the blink of an eye, the Jiang family's dining table was filled with things, some of which were placed directly on the ground.

"This is what you are doing?"

Grandpa Jiang was a little confused, and Grandma Jiang had no idea at all.

"Second brother, you have helped our village so much. We originally didn't have the face to come here, but we really have no idea about next year's watermelon seeds, so we had to come to you shamelessly."

Grandpa Jiang's cousin Jiang Deyun spoke on behalf of everyone, and suddenly the people crowded in the yard looked at Grandpa Jiang nervously.

Jiang Yichen had an idea in mind and took Wang Quan and the others to her room.

"Sister Cheng, you are a girl after all, why are your rooms so simple no matter where you are?"

Wang Quan looked at the furnishings in Jiang Yichen's room and complained that it was even more plain than his own room.

"You've seen a few girls' rooms, and you're judging them here."

"Of course, not to mention my troublesome little cousin. My cousins' rooms are all decorated like princesses' rooms. At the very least, they have dressing tables and various hair ornaments."

"My room only has books, so I am not them."

"Hiss! Such a powerful reason. I admire you!"

"Besides, I am used to having short hair, so I don't have to waste time on my hair, and it looks fresh and natural."

"It's me, Sister Orange. I'm so different."

Wang Quan was defeated by her self-righteousness and gave her a thumbs up.

Zhang Ji saw several books on Jiang Yichen’s only desk and took out one of them.

《Mathematics for College Entrance Examination Theory》

He flipped through it casually and frowned. This book seems to be very difficult!

Yu Hansheng also took out a book, "Collection of Difficult Problems in Physics", and he was attracted after flipping through two pages.

Wang Quan kept talking to himself for a while but didn't hear any response. Then he saw Zhang Ji and Yu Hansheng both absorbed in a book.

Jiang Yicheng and An An lay on the bed with their eyes closed, only Wang Quan was watching the movements outside through the window.

"What are you looking at?"

Wang Quan also took a book. Wow, it was an English tutorial annotated by Jiang Yichen.

Seeing how focused they were, Wang Quan also took the book and started reading.

When there was no more noise outside, Jiang Yichen and An An fell asleep completely.

Wang Quan and the other two didn't wake them up and went back to their room with the books.

Jiang Yichen and An An slept for almost three hours. Grandma Jiang woke them up because she was afraid they couldn't sleep at night.

"Grandma, is the matter just now resolved?"

"Solved. Your grandfather told them about his experience and asked them to make preparations. In case the seeds they kept were unsuccessful, they could still use the purchased seeds to grow seedlings."

"Hey! Now that the matter has been resolved, should we go back to the city in a few days?"

"I'm afraid not so soon! Didn't your cousin get admitted to university? Your great-grandfather's family is hosting a banquet in a couple of days. We should eat there first before leaving."

"also!"

"Why is it so quiet? Where are Wang Quan and the other two?"

"They are reading! They have been reading for the whole afternoon. I even gave them some fruit once, but they didn't pay attention."

"What book? Oh! I know."

Jiang Yicheng was puzzled before, but when he saw a few books missing from the desk, he immediately understood what was going on. He was quite knowledgeable!

For dinner, Jiang Yichen caught a pheasant, and Grandma Jiang killed a few crucian carp, which they had caught using a ground trap yesterday.

When the meal was almost ready, Jiang Yicheng knocked on their door.

"time to eat!"

"Jiang Yicheng, can you lend me this book to read for a few more days?"

Yu Hansheng closed the somewhat obscure book and asked nervously.

"Sure, just give it back to me when you're done reading it."

"Jiang Yicheng, where is my copy?"

Zhang Ji was delighted after hearing this and immediately asked again.

"Same."

"Sister Cheng, your annotations are so insightful. I probably won't be able to finish reading them in the next few days. Can I take them back?"

"Whatever you want, just don't break it."

"Haha! No, absolutely not."

"Everyone, get ready to eat."

Jiang Yichen informed them once again, and this time the three of them reacted before they knew it was already evening.

The next day, Wang Quan woke everyone up early, and An An was still yawning.

"What's wrong with you so early in the morning?"

"Sister Cheng, didn't we agree yesterday to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms today?"

"I didn't agree to it at the time. It was your decision."

"Oh! The majority obeys the minority. Everyone wants to go. An An, let's go and call your cousin after breakfast."

"You're not afraid of picking poisonous mushrooms. My cousin may not be able to recognize all of them."

"Huh? What then? You don't know each other?"

"I've never picked them, and neither has An An, but my grandma must know."

"Grandma Jiang!"

Wang Quan ran to the kitchen immediately and heard Grandma Jiang’s hearty laughter.

For the hand-rolled noodles we had in the morning, Grandma Jiang specially added shredded pork and salted radish cubes, which was very refreshing.

With Grandma Jiang’s scientific knowledge, Wang Quan no longer asked to call Jiang Zitao, and the group went up the mountain before the sun rose.

Wang Quan was so cunning that he snatched a slingshot, under the pretext of showing off his skills.

This guy was lucky, as he caught a pheasant laying eggs as soon as he got up the mountain. They caught the pheasant alive without any effort and harvested 11 pheasant eggs.

Perhaps it was because of this good start that they picked a lot of the mushrooms that Grandma Jiang mentioned. An An also took the opportunity to hunt a rabbit and found a rabbit nest.

"Brother Quan, rabbit hole, look around, is there any more nearby?"

"Here we are, Zhang Ji, Yu Hansheng, you guys should also look around here."

Wang Quan didn't dare to order Jiang Yicheng to do anything, but Jiang Yicheng still silently made two firewood sticks with rotten leaves.

"I found one."

"I have one here, too."

“There seems to be one here too.”

Wang Quan, Zhang Ji and Yu Hansheng called out one after another. Jiang Yichen put the mushrooms in the small backpack aside and gave the empty backpack to An An.

He made another firewood stick, then used a flint to light the firewood stick and blocked three of the holes.

"An An, please buckle them tightly, don't let them fly away."

"An An, let me help you."

When Wang Quan heard this, he was shocked. This was too late. How could he let them escape when they were already at the critical moment?

Rotten leaves are not easy to burn, but they produce a lot of smoke. Within three minutes, they heard faint noises, and several people looked expectant.

Sure enough, two minutes later, the noise got louder and louder. Boom, boom, boom! One after another, rabbits came out of the smokeless hole and fell into the backpack.

"Quick, tie two, this backpack is too small."

Wang Quan felt that there were more people behind, so he quickly asked them to make room.

Zhang Ji and Yu Hansheng hurriedly picked up one each, and Jiang Yichen taught them how to tie them with vines.

"An An, is it gone?"

"Almost. There are so many rabbits in this nest, three big and two small."

"An An, let the little ones go! They have no meat on them and we can't feed them, so we might as well let them continue to reproduce."

"Ok!"

An An picked up the two little rabbits. They seemed frightened and didn't dare to move. Only after An An kicked them twice did they tentatively run away.

"These mushrooms are almost enough for one meal. Do you still want to pick them?"

"Let's go back! Look around as we go. There's still so much game. It's almost time."

When the group dispersed and went down the mountain, the sun had just risen and was not too strong.

"Wow! What a good harvest! These three rabbits can be eaten for several meals."

Grandpa Jiang saw the pheasants and rabbits in the basket and praised them.

"Grandma Jiang, these are the mushrooms we picked. Can you take a look together? Are there any that we can't eat?"

"Let me see, there are so many. Most of them are what we eat every day, they are not poisonous. I will make you chicken and mushroom stew at noon."

"Ginger grandmother, and spicy rabbit head!"

"it is good!"

Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang are both smiling, and they also like the lively atmosphere at home.

This summer in the village, Jiang Yichen finally didn't find time to go out and make some money with his grandfather. After attending his cousin's graduation banquet, they hurried back to the city.

There is still one week left before school starts. Grandpa Jiang is going to Peixi City to purchase goods and see if there are any new arrivals.

Jiang Yichen asked to go, and An An also wanted to go, so Grandma Jiang let them go together. She cleaned the house at home and then went to accompany her mother.

Sometimes opportunities come so unexpectedly. When Jiang Yichen and his team came out of the first factory, they met a man with a briefcase whispering.

"Where can I get so much fruit on such a hot day?"

"Hey! Wait a minute, young man."

Grandpa Jiang subconsciously called out to the man. The man was a little confused and a little impatient, but he still asked Grandpa Jiang in a well-mannered manner.

"Uncle, what do you want?"

"Young man, I heard you say you wanted to get lots of fruit, didn't you?"

"Do you know where it is?"

The man nodded, and then asked him hopefully.

"Well! How much do you want? What are you doing?"

When the man heard this, he looked at the old man and two children with some caution. Could it be that they came to inquire about the situation of their factory?

"Don't worry, I am a real farmer. Everyone in our village grows fruits."

"Really?"

"believe or not."

Grandpa Jiang turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the man.

"Uncle, uncle, don't get me wrong, just listen to me."

It turned out that the man was a purchasing agent for a food factory, and their factory was recently developing fruit-themed products.

We have now successfully developed fruit juice and dried fruits and are preparing to vigorously promote them on the market, but we lack raw materials.

It's like a pillow is given to you when you feel sleepy. It comes without any effort.

Grandpa Jiang's eyes lit up and he pulled him.

"I also have a farm where I grow all kinds of fruits."

"Really? Great, sir! The quantity we want may not be that large at the beginning, but once the launch is successful, we will need a steady supply of various fruits."

"That's no problem. We have a village that also grows fruit trees. If you need, I'll ask them to plant more fruit trees."

"Master, doesn't it take at least three to five years for a fruit tree to bear fruit? What if it's too late by then?"

"No, my farm is big and can fully supply you. Besides, there are fruits that don't take that long to bear fruit. You won't just focus on the common ones, right?"

"You are right, sir. I am obsessed with the situation. This is the first batch of orders our factory needs. Do you think you can get them together?"

The man slapped his thigh and immediately took out a list from his bag. Grandpa Jiang took a glance and saw that he wanted 5,000 kilograms of apples and pears each.

"Are those the only two? I also have watermelons and peaches. In a while, grapes and pomegranates will also be ripe. I'm also thinking about other fruits recently. Do you want some when the time comes?"

"Uncle, you are really my lucky star. In this way, I don't have to run around. Otherwise, you can move your legs and come with me. I am not in production, so I can't give you an answer. But our factory leaders should be very willing. If it is feasible, we can just sign the contract."

"no problem!"

Seeing that Grandpa Jiang was so straightforward, the man immediately and attentively led them to the factory.

The food factory was not far from the stationery factory. Jiang Yichen secretly smuggled several kinds of fruits from the space and put them in his bag, so that he could take them with him on the road.

When the security guard at the food factory saw the purchasing team go out and bring back an old man and two children, he just greeted them warmly and muttered curiously as he looked at their backs.

"This old man and two children don't look like they can work in a factory!"

The purchasing manager led them to the reception room and then quickly reported to the factory manager's office. The factory manager then called the production manager and the head of the R&D department for a simple meeting.

After reaching a consensus, they went to the reception room together.

Jiang Yichen deliberately took out various fruits for him and An An to eat. When they came over, the air was filled with the sweet fragrance of fruits.

The smiles on their faces became even brighter. Just based on the fragrance and color, it met their requirements. But they didn't know how it tasted.

"Sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. This is our factory director, this is the production manager, and this is the head of research and development."

"Hello! These are the food that the children brought with them on the road. There are not many of them. You can try them first."

Grandpa Jiang knows that if he wants to gain an extra advantage, taste plays a decisive role.

The purchasing department gave them a share of each item. The production manager and R&D director's eyes lit up, but they didn't show it on their faces. However, Jiang noticed it just in case.

"What do you think?"

Grandpa Jiang went straight to the point. The factory director discussed with the two men in a low voice and nodded. Instead of answering the question directly, he asked Grandpa Jiang.

"Uncle, excuse me, are you from this city?"

"no!"

"So you are here to sell fruit in this city?"

"no!"

"Does that mean your fruit is marketable?"

"Not bad!"

This made the factory manager feel uncertain, as he had originally intended to use this to lower the price. And there was indeed a certain risk in importing all the raw materials from one place.

"Director, I came to Peixi for other things this time, and it was an accident that I met you. If you are willing to cooperate, we country people are still trustworthy. Of course, trust is mutual."

The factory manager thought for a while and finally finalized the contract with Grandpa Jiang.

Grandpa Jiang promised to deliver it to them in three days, but if the quantity is large at the later stage, they will have to bear part of the shipping cost.

Because their pricing was too low and he couldn't afford it, the factory manager readily wrote this into the contract.

Everyone was happy. Grandpa Jiang took the siblings to work in the space for two days. On the third day, he rented a large truck and sent them there.

The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren spent a whole day running around to several stationery factories before they hurried home because school was about to start in the next day.
