Get rich lying down, my supermarket knows everything from ancient times to the present
Chapter 86: I will take as many unsaleable watermelons as I can get
Jiang Qingli looked in the direction of the voice and found an old woman running towards her quickly from the melon field.
Because he walked too hastily, the old man accidentally fell.
But she stood up quickly, without even having time to brush off the dirt on her body, and ran towards Jiang Qingli again.
"Boss, are you harvesting melons?"
Jiang Qingli saw the old man's actions and immediately said, "Don't worry, you don't have to be so anxious, I am indeed here to buy melons."
Although Jiang Qingli said this, the old woman did not slow down. She quickly came to Jiang Qingli and rubbed her hands on her clothes to wipe off the mud on her hands.
"Boss, do you think 25 cents per pound is okay?"
"Twenty-five cents?!"
Jiang Qingli exclaimed immediately.
It’s so cheap?!
But the old woman obviously misunderstood Jiang Qingli's tone, and she showed a cautious expression on her face: "Then... Boss, how about two cents? It really can't be any lower. My son, my son has bad legs and feet, and he relies on these pieces of land at home to make money to support his health."
"Boss, look, every melon in our house is ripe, big and sweet."
Before Jiang Qingli could say anything, she heard a man's voice again.
She looked back and saw a man rushing out of the melon field with two big watermelons in his hands.
The man's legs and feet were really not very good, just as the old man had just said. He was staggering as he walked and almost fell.
When they reached the roadside, the man took out a small knife from his waist bag, carefully rinsed the knife with the mineral water in the car, and then cut a watermelon for Jiang Qingli on the spot.
The sharp knife gently scratched the emerald green watermelon skin covered with dark green stripes, and a crisp and pleasant "click" sound was heard.
Then, the bright red flesh of the melon, as dazzling as the rising sun, instantly caught our eyes. The color was so bright that it seemed to be dripping, full of temptation.
In the sultry open-air environment, Jiang Qingli saw the tempting red melon flesh and the rustling sound of cutting made her swallow her saliva subconsciously.
The man cut off a piece of watermelon and handed it to Jiang Qingli: "Boss, try it. It's very sweet!"
Jiang Qingli took a bite of the watermelon. With a light bite, the flesh of the watermelon instantly cracked, releasing cool and rich watermelon juice.
As you chew, it seems to turn into countless tiny sweet particles, blending perfectly with the saliva in your mouth, releasing an even richer sweetness and fragrance.
It makes people forget the heat all over their body for a short while.
Jiang Qingli quickly finished a piece of watermelon.
The man originally wanted to put another piece into Jiang Qingli's hand, but Jiang Qingli waved his hand to refuse.
"Uncle, how much is the price per kilogram of melons?"
The man heard hope in Jiang Qingli's tone, and he quickly replied: "Boss, do you think 20 cents a pound is okay?"
After saying that, Jiang Qingli did not speak immediately.
Seeing Jiang Qingli thinking and hesitating, the man hurriedly explained:
"Boss, our melons are big and sweet. In previous years, they were 30 cents per pound. This year, the yield is high, so the price has dropped to 25 cents per pound. If you think it's expensive, how about... 17 cents per pound?"
"One dollar and seven cents a pound. I'll take whatever you have."
Jiang Qingli made an offer immediately, and her silence just now was also because she was considering how much she should pay.
"Boss, you are not kidding, are you?"
The old man and the man looked at Jiang Qingli in disbelief.
When they saw Jiang Qingli nod very solemnly, the anxiety and worry on the two of them disappeared, and what followed was a surge of emotions that made the old man and the man's eyes red.
Jiang Qingli took out her cell phone and said to the man in front of her: "Well, let's add each other's contact information first."
Hearing this, the man took out his cell phone from his pocket with trembling hands.
The phone was very old, the screen was broken, and it even needed to be tied up with a rubber band.
The man smiled a self-deprecating smile: "My phone is a bit old, please don't mind it."
Jiang Qingli: "Of course not."
After Jiang Qingli added the other party as a friend, the delivery worker called.
"Hello, is this Ms. Jiang? The batch of air conditioners you ordered has been delivered to the address you left."
Jiang Qingli didn't expect the air conditioner to be delivered so quickly: "Sorry, I have to go back now, it will take about 20 minutes. Please wait for me for a moment."
Seeing Jiang Qingli was about to leave, the mother and son showed worried looks again.
Jiang Qingli quickly promised: "Don't worry, since I promised to come and pick the watermelons, I will definitely not break my promise. Uncle, grandma, you guys pick the watermelons first. Pick as many ripe watermelons as you can in the fields. I want them all. I will definitely come here at four o'clock this afternoon. Feel free to call me if you have anything."
Afterwards, Jiang Qingli got into the car and prepared to leave.
But the old man is really enthusiastic.
In the end, Jiang Qingli rushed to her supermarket with a dozen large watermelons that the old man had picked.
There were not many cars on the road, so Jiang Qingli returned quickly.
She opened the supermarket door, started the conveyor belt, and asked the unloading masters to place the goods directly on the conveyor belt.
Then she walked into her little room, where Nian Nian was already lying on the bed and asleep.
Jiang Qingli covered the little guy with a quilt, turned up the air conditioner temperature by two degrees, then took out a kitchen knife and walked out of the small room.
She cut the watermelons she had just brought back and distributed them to the unloading masters.
After finally taking a break, she discovered that Sheng Huaigui had sent her many "call invitations".
But he cancelled them all.
Finally, a voice message was sent: [Miss Jiang, I don't mean to disturb you, but the summer heat in Yancheng is very severe, and I want to buy some medicine from you to relieve the heat.]
After hearing this voice message, Jiang Qingli suddenly felt annoyed.
How come I forgot to buy the anti-heat medicine when I went to buy an air conditioner just now!
She then immediately sent a message to Erik, explaining her needs.
After ordering the medicine, Jiang Qingli replied to Sheng Huaigui: [Don't worry, Lord Hou, the medicine will be delivered soon. However, I want to send you a good thing now! ]
After a long while, Jiang Qingli still didn't receive any news from Sheng Huaigui.
It seems that Sheng Huaigui is busy.
·
Not long after, all the air conditioners were delivered.
After eating the watermelons, the unloading masters sat in the supermarket to cool off for a while, then got up and left.
As luck would have it, just as they left, the mobile power bank that Jiang Qingli bought arrived.
There are only one hundred in this batch.
Jiang Qingli kept ten and then gave the remaining 90 power banks to Sheng Huaigui.
Then she plugged a mobile power bank into every socket in the supermarket to charge them.
······
After Sheng Huaigui sent a request to Jiang Qingli to buy medicine, he discussed with Lieutenant General Shen how to dig a well.
It was not until his own secret guard came to report that he realized that Miss Jiang had sent another new item.
