Weird Farmhouse

Chapter 33 Talent

Although the strawberries grown by Wu Tong are not expensive varieties, their appearance and taste will definitely not be inferior to those famous ones. They are round and plump, almost the size of a child's fist, and the color is bright red when ripe, and the taste is much sweeter. Juicy, fruity and attractive, one can be addicted.

It was a bit of a blessing to Wu Tong that the strawberries could finally be sold. It was not easy to see the strawberries ripen in the strawberry shed.

Strawberries are no better than watermelons. Inexperienced people can't tell if a watermelon is ripe or not just by looking at the rind, but strawberries can be told just by looking at the color.Before the strawberries were fully ripe, they were followed by Feng Qi and Jin Chuan, two fruit lovers. Every morning and evening, they would go to the strawberry shed and pick one that was red. Although it was not fully ripe, it was sour. It's sweet and doesn't have a taste.

Because there was no money at the time, we built temporary greenhouses, which were lower than steel-frame greenhouses. In some places, we had to bend over to walk, but these two goods were not too troublesome. One, didn't even wash it, just ate it.

Wu Tong said blankly: "I didn't grow these specially for you, I want to sell them for money." According to their way of eating, he would never be listed on the market.

Feng Qi said: "I also spend money to buy, I will give you my card, you can deduct it as you like."

Jin Chuan also said with a smile, "Deduct it from my salary."

Wu Tong glared at Jin Chuan bitterly. This guy always turned his elbows outwards, eating and drinking: "Ten yuan each!" He thought he could scare them off.

Unexpectedly, Jin Chuan didn't think it was too expensive, but just scratched his neck: "Then my monthly salary can eat 500, and I can eat about 17 a day, which is a good deal!"

Feng Qi said: "It's not expensive. Your strawberries are big, and there are probably less than ten per catty, which is more than 100 yuan per catty, which is about the same as the price of light snow. I have eaten light snow, and it is not as delicious as yours. .”

Wu Tong: "..." He has already been defeated by two foodies.

Fortunately, there are a lot of strawberries, and there are a lot of fruit. At the beginning, there are few ripe strawberries.

Wu Tong carefully packed the picked strawberries one by one with a foam net, divided them into three boxes, and told Jin Chuan: "These two boxes are for Hu Jiu and Qing Shan, and this one is for Simo. You take them with you." If I go to Chengdu, I will call him and ask him to get it from Huang Xi."

Feng Qi happened to come down from upstairs at this moment, upon hearing this, he couldn't help raising his voice: "You want to give that guy strawberries?"

Hearing this voice, Wu Tong recalled the dream last night, felt a little uncomfortable, and said without raising his head: "He taught me to play the piano, and he didn't charge for it. Isn't it right for me to give some fruit?"

Feng Qi was instantly depressed. Why didn't he get this kind of treatment? Si Mo eats for free, but he has to pay for it. This is too different: "Why do I have to pay for what I eat?"

Wu Tong chuckled: "Why don't you teach me how to play the piano too? I'll treat you to eat strawberries for free."

Feng Qi said: "Teach me, teach me!"

Wu Tong didn't take his words seriously, Feng Qi didn't know how to play the piano at all, what did he use to teach himself?

Unexpectedly, Feng Qi said: "Lend me to play your piano."

Wu Tong finally looked at him straight: "You really teach? Do you know how?"

"I'll learn first, anyway, you don't have time to play during the day." Feng Qi said.

Wu Tong was not stingy: "Okay, then you can use it to practice, and you will pay me if you break it." He didn't believe that Feng Qi could learn faster than himself, and he had been learning for so long.

The strawberries were delivered to Chengdu, and Si Mo quickly called to thank him: "Your strawberries taste really good, thank you! You are too kind. If I want to eat, can I call and order with you?"

Wu Tong said: "What's there, come to my house to eat if you want to eat, just a few strawberries, what else can you order. I recently learned "Autumn Wind Ci"."

Si Mo knew that he was inviting him to teach him how to play the piano, so he said, "Okay, I'll go there after I arrange things here, and I won't bother you at that time."

Wu Tong was working in the field, when he heard the sound of the clank piano coming from the house, Feng Qi really practiced the piano, which sounds like basic fingering training.In the afternoon, Wu Tong discovered that the out-of-tune clank sound had become the melody of "Autumn Wind Ci" that he was familiar with. Listening to the sound of the piano, the degree of completion was higher than that of learning it for a month.Wu Tong was in a mess immediately, it's impossible, he played better than himself in a day, he must have practiced before.

After dinner, Feng Qi took the piano out and said: "Everyone help me check my study results today." After speaking, he started playing the piano.

"Autumn Wind Ci" is a famous guqin piece, and it is also a short piece with simple fingering and many loops, so many beginners start here. It is easy to learn, but it is not easy to express the affection of this piece.As soon as Feng Qi made a move, Wu Tong knew that this guy's level was higher than his own. Whether it was skills or emotions, he understood better than himself.

After the song was over, no one present spoke.Feng Qi smiled slightly: "How did you play?"

Jin Chuan said in surprise, "Professor Feng, you really only studied for one day?"

Da Xiong said, "Isn't the shopkeeper playing this piece too? How about the shopkeeper playing it for us too."

Wu Tong said with a straight face: "Don't dare to make a fool of yourself!"

Wang Hu said: "If Professor Feng can play like this without any musical background, it means he is very talented."

"It's not that I don't have a musical foundation. I have learned to sing and can read music. I have a musical foundation. But I haven't played the piano." Feng Qi said.

"That's amazing. You can learn this in one day, which shows that Professor Feng is very talented in music. But you, the shopkeeper, are also good at playing." Wang Hu said.

Wu Tong knew that Wang Hu was obviously trying to comfort himself. He always felt that hard work can make up for one's weakness. As long as you work hard, you will always play well. However, compared with talented people, you find that the so-called hard work can make up for your weakness. , no matter how hard you try, you can't match the performance of a talented person who just moves his fingers casually.

Feng Qi paid close attention to Wu Tong's expression, and found that he was depressed, and said: "Here's the piano for you, you can play it by yourself at night, and lend me to play it during the day, and I will teach you how to play it later."

"You don't need to teach me, I'll play it myself." Wu Tong hated his teeth when he heard this, he didn't want him to teach him how to play the piano, even if he played it better than himself.

Feng Qi turned his head and looked at him: "Hey, didn't you agree that I will teach you how to play the piano, and you will buy me strawberries for free?"

Wu Tong almost bit his own tongue, this was indeed said during the provocation in the morning, who knew that he actually took it seriously, and he could really do it.

Feng Qi showed a triumphant smile: "You must keep your word!"

Wu Tong was so depressed that he was about to vomit blood.

After Hu Jiu got the strawberries, he called Wu Tong on the same day and said that he wanted to buy his strawberries, which weighed 51 catties.Wu Tong didn't agree immediately, saying that he had to think about it. Hu Jiu added another ten yuan, but Wu Tong still didn't agree. He planned to listen to the price of the green shirt, and he would sell it to whoever had the highest price.

Qingshan only got the strawberries the next day. After he finished eating, he called Wu Tong: "The appearance and taste of the strawberries are very good. If they can meet this standard, I will give you the strawberries at a premium price, the wholesale price is 100 yuan." What do you think of the yuan per catty?"

Wu Tong said: "Yes." The price was within the range he expected, so he didn't bargain with the other party.

Qingshan said: "How big is your output over there? Can you give me fifty catties of goods every day?"

"Maybe a little less in the early stage. If it's less than fifty, I'll give you as many as you can pick." Strawberries are about to mature in large numbers, and it's okay to pick dozens of catties a day.

Hu Jiu called again that day: "Didn't you tell me to bring strawberries to me yesterday? Why didn't you bring them today?"

Wu Tong said: "When did I say I'd bring you strawberries? Didn't the price come to an agreement? My wholesale price here is 100 yuan per catty, which is the same price. You can accept it. I can provide it to you, but I can't. Just accept it."

Hu Jiuqian said with a smile: "You really know how to joke, strawberries costing 100 yuan a catty are the same price as imported strawberries."

"I'm not importing strawberries. Boss Hu, you know whether the strawberries are good or not," Wu Tong said.

Hu Jiu said: "The things are good, but the varieties are too ordinary, and customers can't accept such a high price. I can only give you 81 catties at most, no more." He buys strawberries and watermelons for different purposes. The output of watermelon is high, and it costs tens of thousands of catties to buy a watermelon at a time. I will definitely not be able to eat it all. Of course, it is auctioned. He intends to buy it to eat and give away, and of course his heart will be hurt if it is expensive.

Wu Tong said: "Then there is no way, I can't supply you." He only planted two acres of strawberries, and picked a few dozen catties at most every day, except for the goods sent to Qingshan. Qi and Jinchuan also consume a lot every day, and they also eat some for themselves. If they can't consume any more, they send it to the Panda Supermarket to sell. It doesn't matter if it's cheaper, and it's considered a welfare for the local people.

Hu Jiu was in a hurry: "Wait, Wu Tong, you can't do this. Didn't you say well before that the strawberries were ripe for me to supply, why are you going back on your word now? Is there no room for negotiation?"

Wu Tong said: "At that time, I said you wanted strawberries, but I didn't agree on the price, and I didn't sign a contract. You can't meet my price now. Someone is willing to pay a high price. Why should I sell it cheap?"

"Hey! Who poached my corner? Steal my business?" Hu Jiu yelled unhappily.

Wu Tong said: "Boss Hu, in terms of business and business, Boss Hu is not a gangster, so he can't buy and sell by force."

Hu Jiu wanted to buy and sell by force, but his strength didn't allow it. Hearing that Feng Qi had lived in the farmhouse for a long time, he said, "Well, I'll go to your place tomorrow, and we'll meet and talk."

"Whatever you want." Wu Tong didn't refuse, what he was thinking was, Hu Jiu is such a freshman boss, does he have to come here for a few catties of strawberries?

Of course, Hu Jiu was not only here for a few catties of strawberries, but now that someone was challenging his authority, he had to come and find out who had the guts to pry his corner!
