Chapter 26 New Business Opportunities

After picking up half of the basket, the three of them went down the mountain together and returned to Shanghe Village. Lu Xu helped them carry the seasoning home, drank a few sips of water, and left.

"Where are you going to get so many apricots?" Wang Xiuqin saw apricots in the basket, picked one up and broke it open, and was about to put it in her mouth.

"Mom, don't eat it, it's sour." Zhang Ying successfully prevented Wang Xiuqin from eating apricots, "I picked them in Xiahe Village, and Xiaoxi said he could make them delicious."

"If it tastes good, that piece of fruit won't go to waste." Wang Xiuqin obviously knew that the piece of fruit was not tasty, so she hurriedly threw the apricots in her hand into the basket again.

"Second Aunt, just wait and see! I'm sure I can make it delicious." In order to prove that he really has this ability, Ning Xi ignored the rest and went to the main room with Xingzi on his back, and sat on a small stool to peel the apricot.

Lu Nan handed the teacup to Ning Xi's mouth, "Drink some water first."

Ning Xi gulped down a few sips of the cool chrysanthemum tea, squinted his eyes in satisfaction, "Phew! I'm almost dying of thirst."

"I'm thirsty, and I don't know how to drink water yet." Lu Nan tapped her on the head helplessly, "Do you want more?"

Ning Xi took another sip of chrysanthemum tea, and she drank more than half of the cup of chrysanthemum tea. Lu Nan poured boiling water into the tea cup, and put the tea cup on the stool to dry.

Wang Xiuqin and Zhang Ying quickly walked back to the main room. Wang Xiuqin washed her hands and sat on the stool to make spicy strips. Zhang Ying poured out the money she earned today and arranged them one by one. "Xiaoxi, what are you going to do."

"Make it into canned fruit." Add more sugar to make it into a can, and then put it in the well to freeze it. It will definitely be enjoyable to eat cold.

"You can also make canned fruit?" Wang Xiuqin was shocked. She had eaten canned fruit, and Lu Xu would occasionally bring them over.

"It's very simple." In her previous life, she saw tutorials on the Internet, and it was super simple to make with no other materials except sugar.

"Same as yesterday, today we made another 30." Zhang Ying handed the money to Lu Nan with a smile, and brought a knife to help Ning Xi peel the apricots. The little fish was dry, so he didn't go out to help catch the fish.

On a summer night, the stars twinkle brightly, one, two, three...

After taking a shower and coming out of the toilet, Ning Xi brought up the canned apricots in the well, tasted it first, it was sweet and cold, and the strong apricot smell was all over his mouth, it was especially delicious to eat. Be more energetic, take another sip of Lima's soup, the sugar water is so sweet to your heart, if you don't like it too sweet, add some cold boiled water and drink it as fruit syrup, it's also super good.

She brought a big bowl and sent it to Wang Xiuqin and the others.

Wang Xiuqin and Zhang Ying sat under the big tree at the entrance and chatted with the villagers and aunts. Zhang Ying saw the big bowl Ning Xi was holding, stood up and walked over, "Can I eat it?"

"Try it." Ning Xi handed her the bowl.

Zhang Ying picked up a piece of apricot with chopsticks and put it into her mouth, squinting her eyes comfortably, "It's so sweet and soft, and there's a strong apricot flavor in my mouth."

"It's really sweet?" Wang Xiuqin stretched out her hand to ask Zhang Ying to pass the bowl to pick up a piece and put it in her mouth. She also nodded excitedly, "Yes! It's really sweet. You girl really has the ability to turn waste into treasure."

Aunt Yang smiled and asked, "Apricots are expensive these two days!"

"Not..." Bought it.

Before Zhang Ying could finish speaking, Ning Xi interrupted her aloud, "I've made quite a lot, I'll get some out for my aunts to taste, and my second sister-in-law and second aunt help me get some."

The two didn't say much, they stood up and went into the room with Ning Xi.

As soon as he entered, Ning Xi whispered, "Second Aunt, Second Sister-in-law, don't reveal that these apricots were picked."

Wang Xiuqin said, "There is nothing to hide. No one in the village knows how to make canned food, otherwise those fruits would not rot in the ground every year."

Ning Xi lowered her voice, "Second Aunt, I plan to rent all of that area. If it is reported in advance that I can turn those fruits into valuables, the rent will be doubled."

Zhang Ying was surprised, "Rent it to sell canned fruit?"

"Well! Second sister-in-law, my second brother and I will go over to have a look tomorrow afternoon, and if it is suitable, we will contract that piece first."

This is to pull them to do it together again, Zhang Ying took Ning Xi's hand, "Xiao Xi, don't take us with you, you..."

Ning Xi smiled and planned for Zhang Ying, "Second sister-in-law, I'm going back to school. If I don't pull you, my business won't be able to continue at all."

"Xiao Xi, you're so kind." Chen Ying shook Ning Xi's hand, how did they meet such a good girl, she was willing to take them with anything.

Wang Xiuqin smiled gratifiedly, "Your second uncle should get to know the cadres of Xiahe Village, so it will be easier for him to go over and talk."

"Okay." Ning Xi nodded in response.

Lifting the canned apricots from under the well, he first brought a bowl for Lu Nansheng, and then asked Wang Xiuqin and the others to serve some for each of the aunts outside the door.

She returned to the room with the bowl in her hand, and Lu Nan sat at the desk again to see.

"Brother Nan, try the canned food I made." Ning Xi picked up a piece of apricot and brought it to Lu Nan's mouth.

After eating the apricots, Lu Nan nodded and said, "It's very sweet, and the apricots are very fragrant."

"Really!" Ning Xi smiled happily. She lay down on the table and approached Lu Nan in a low voice, "I'm going to contract that mountain and make all the fruits into cans."

"Yes, you can ask Second Uncle, he should be familiar with people in Xiahe Village." Lu Nan agreed with a smile, he knew that this girl had a purpose for bringing back so many sour apricots.

Ning Xi smiled and took the book from Lu Nan's hand, "Then you go and tell your second uncle that you will let your second uncle and second brother go there tomorrow, and it's best to contract it immediately, as many apricots on the tree are already ripe and don't pick them." It just fell."

"Okay." Lu Nan smiled helplessly, this girl was in a hurry to do anything, and the things that she only thought of in the afternoon seemed to be finalized immediately.

"Remember to tell the second brother that the price should be lowered." Ning Xi walked over and pushed Lu Nan out.

The two walked out of the yard together.

"Xiaoxi, thank you, your apricot is so sweet, did you put it in the well? It's ice cold."

"The soup is also very sweet. Xiaoxi, you are so capable. You can make it so delicious with just ordinary apricots."

Zhang Ying said, if they knew that the apricots were picked by Xiahe Village, they would not be able to praise their Xiaoxi to the sky.

"Yeah! I put it in the well. In such a hot weather, I put it in the well and eat it. It has a different taste." Ning Xi sat down and chatted with the aunts.

Lu Nan pushed the wheelchair to Secretary Lu's house.

"Xiao Nan is so lucky, he lost the sesame and found the treasure."

"No, I used to think Ning Hong was good and capable, but it turned out that Xiaoxi was the one who reported it."

Zhang Yingju agreed with this statement, "That's for sure, Xiaoxi is better than Ning Hong."

"Don't talk nonsense." Wang Xiuqin gave Zhang Ying a warning look. If Liu Shufang heard such words, she would definitely come and talk to Zhang Ying endlessly.

After chatting for a few words, someone changed the subject, "By the way, Chen Haijun came to propose marriage today."

"Can he come up with 200 yuan?" Zhang Ying's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it.

"I took it. I saw that he took it. They even set a wedding date, which will be on the 16th of this month."

"So fast."

"Can you hurry up? If you don't hurry up, your stomach will protrude."
