Chapter 62 Meeting Someone on the Road
"Vegetables?" Qiao Chao was puzzled. He hadn't been to the vegetable garden behind the house recently.
Zhen Yue asked him to walk to the window and opened it to show him the vegetable patch behind the house, which was now full of lush vegetables.
Qiao Chao was shocked, "This..." This vegetable is not dead?
Zhen Yue ignored his shock and said, "I will grow a bucket of bean sprouts today, and you can take them to the county town tomorrow. Tomorrow you can go directly to the restaurant in the county town and sell these vegetables at the price I give you."
When Qiao Chao heard the prices Zhen Yue said, he was stunned for a long time. He was a little worried, "Can it be sold?" It was four or five times more expensive than before.
Zhen Yue: "If we can't sell them, we'll take them home and eat them ourselves." It's normal for fresh vegetables to be expensive in winter.
Qiao Chao: “Okay.”
During dinner in the evening, Zhen Yue asked them to get up early the next day to harvest the vegetables behind the house, and Qiao Chao would go to the county town to sell the vegetables the next day.
As for why they didn't go to the Song Mansion, Zhen Yue felt that restaurants would be more short of fresh vegetables in winter, and the Song Mansion had its own farm, which grew a lot of things. Before, the Song Mansion could buy vegetables from their family because they were delicious and Gui Ge didn't mind paying a penny or two. Zhen Yue was afraid that if the price was too high, people would feel cheated.
The next morning, when Qiao Dashan and his friends came to the back of the house and saw so many lush green vegetables, they were a little shocked. "How did this old man grow these vegetables? They are still growing so well even in the snow? They are not even frozen?"
Qiao Chen also picked a cucumber, washed it and ate it. A "crunching" sound rang out in the darkness. She broke off a section and handed it to Qiao Dashan. "It's delicious! The ones grown by the old family are much more delicious. I don't know why."
Qiao Dashan: “Maybe it’s a talent.” A talent for farming.
Qiao Chenshi: "Maybe, get to work."
Not long after, Qiao Chao and Qiao Er also came to help. After working for almost an hour, they put all the vegetables on the donkey cart, covered them with something, and then went to the county town.
I don’t know if it was because it snowed last night, but the road was extremely difficult to walk on and a little muddy. The wheels of the donkey cart were stuck in the mud, so Qiao Chao and Qiao Er had to get out and push it.
After walking for a while, things finally felt better. Qiao Chao and Qiao Er got on the donkey cart again. Afraid that it was getting late, Qiao Chao immediately patted the butt of the donkey cart to make it go faster.
As they walked, the road ahead became muddy again, and there seemed to be a carriage stuck in the mud. Two people were pushing the carriage hard, but the carriage was stuck too deep, so it was very difficult. The two people looked like servants.
Seeing Qiao Chao and them, the two men immediately bowed to him and said, "Two big brothers, can you help us? Help us lift the car, and we will definitely reward you."
Qiao Er immediately looked at Qiao Chao, who got off the donkey cart and said, "Okay."
Qiao Er also hurried down, Qiao Chao took a wooden board and put it in front of the wheel, and the four people began to lift the car. Qiao Chao was very strong, and the two people who asked for help didn't seem to have to put in much effort before the car was lifted up.
The wheels got on the wooden planks, and with their help the cart was able to move out quickly.
"Thank you, brothers." The servant took out thirty cents from his pocket and handed it to Qiao Chao.
Qiao Chao took it and said, "You're welcome." He glanced at the carriage window and saw someone inside. The person seemed to have glanced at them just now, but he didn't care much.
Qiao Chao and Qiao Er returned to the donkey cart. As the horse-drawn carriages in front were stuck in the mud, Qiao Chao was afraid that their cart would also get stuck, so he asked Qiao Er to lead the donkey in front to adjust the direction while he pushed the cart from behind.
After passing the muddy area, the two continued to move forward, but unexpectedly they saw the carriage stuck in the mud again in front of them.
Qiao Chao: ...
Qiao Er: "Hey, brother, the opportunity to make money is here again."
The two servants were overjoyed to see Qiao Chao and the others. Before they could say anything, Qiao Chao and Qiao Er walked over again.
After earning another thirty cents, a voice suddenly came from the carriage asking the servant to come over. After a while, the servant came down and looked at their donkey cart. There were several backpacks, which seemed to be filled with straw?
"Where are you two going, brothers?" the servant asked.
Qiao Er: "We are going to the county town, Cang County."
"Really? It just so happens that our master is also here. We can go together." Mainly because they were afraid that the car would get stuck in the mud again, and today's trip didn't seem to be going smoothly.
Qiao Er blinked, "But we are using a donkey cart, so we move very slowly."
"It doesn't matter. The road is bad anyway and our carriage moves slowly."
"That's fine."
The two cars were suddenly moving parallel to each other, and the two servants asked them where they were from.
Qiao Chao sat aside without saying anything. It was mainly Qiao Er who spoke, "We are villagers from Danan Village, Linfeng Town. We went to the county town mainly because we have things to do."
"That's it."
The curtain on the carriage was suddenly lifted, and the person inside took a look at the things on Qiao Chao's donkey cart. At first, all he saw were weeds, so he lost interest. Unexpectedly, suddenly there seemed to be a little bit of green in his eyes.
green?
The man looked carefully and found that because of the bumpy ride of the donkey cart, the straw moved a little, revealing a little green underneath. If he was not mistaken, it was green vegetables?
Winter greens?
"Stop!" Zhou Yan suddenly said.
The coachman and servants outside the carriage quickly stopped the car, "Master?"
Zhou Yan opened the carriage curtain and looked at Qiao Chao and Qiao Er. "What's on your donkey cart? Vegetables?"
When Qiao Chao and Qiao Er saw that the man in front of them was wearing a cloak with shiny fur, they could tell at first glance that he was a nobleman.
Qiao Er didn't dare to look at him, but Qiao Chao didn't think it was a big deal. Qiao Er didn't answer and looked at his elder brother.
Zhou Yan also looked at Qiao Chao, knowing that this one of the two should be the one in charge.
Qiao Chao: “It’s vegetables.”
Zhou Yan: "Can I take a look?" He said as he got off the carriage, and a servant immediately supported him.
Qiao Chao: “Sure.” Qiao Chao walked to the back and lifted the straw to reveal the vegetables in one of the baskets. They were all small green vegetables, lush green vegetables.
Zhou Yan reached out and touched the small green vegetables. He thought that going out today was a bad thing, but unexpectedly it was a good thing? He looked at Qiao Chao: "How much are your vegetables? I want them all."
Qiao Er was stunned.
Qiao Chao was not surprised, "There are others besides this." Qiao Chao opened the other baskets, two baskets of green vegetables, one basket of cucumbers, most of the basket of tomatoes, half of the basket of peppers, and even half a bucket of bean sprouts.
Zhou Yan knew about tomatoes, but he didn't expect to see someone selling them here. He had only seen this thing in the provincial capital before. It was said that at first people thought it was poisonous and didn't dare to eat it, but later, for some reason, it seemed that the news from Shengjing said that it could be eaten when it turned red.
However, it has only been a short time since it was made popular, and many people thought it was inedible. Unexpectedly, someone in this small rural area actually grows it, and it actually looks pretty good.
"You name a price, and I'll take them all."
