Xu Ailing hurriedly shook her head, "There is no extra room at home, and Xiao Min had to sleep on the balcony in the past, so I should go there after I give birth, so that I can sleep on the balcony for a while less."

Zhou Min, on the other hand, didn't care. "It's better to go there after harvesting the peaches. It's the same wherever I sleep. The most important thing now is you, sister-in-law."

Both Zhou's mother and Zhou Min insisted on going to take care of Xu Ailing, Xu Ailing refused several times, and then compromised when she couldn't refuse.

Several people chatted for a while, Zhou Min said that he was going to pack honey for Ning Xi.

Xu Ailing pulled Ning Xi along with her.

Zhou Min led the two of them into a wooden house, and when he opened the door, a sweet and greasy smell wafted out. The room was neatly filled with wooden barrels. Zhou Min walked to the frontmost wooden barrel, Open it, and there is a barrel full of yellow-orange honey, and the sweet and greasy taste of the barrel's wide opening is more intense.

Ning Xi looked at the honey in the barrel, then at the barrels all over the room, "Is this all honey?"

Zhou Min smiled and replied, "The room next to it is also full of honey, and these were recovered this year."

Xu Ailing helped to support the porcelain pot, and complained a little depressed, "If such a good wild honey is in the imperial capital, the recycling price would be at least 7-8 cents a catty, but the recycling price here is only 7 cents a catty. Zhou Tong is looking for it." The supply and marketing cooperative only agreed to help collect it because of some relationship."

“我记得供销社里的蜂蜜卖的是7毛8分一瓶,一瓶写的是半斤其实还不到半斤,一个玻璃瓶的价格是5毛,半斤蜂蜜供销社至少能赚2毛4分5。”

Xu Ailing panicked in her heart, "You can earn 4 cents a catty, and those people are really nothing, but they still say that it's because of Zhou Tong's face, otherwise they would definitely not be willing to accept honey from our village."

"These 4 cents are really good money." Ning Xi felt that she could earn this kind of money, and even more. The price of the glass bottles she got in Chenjia Village was cheaper than what the supply and marketing cooperatives got in the state-owned glass factory. The glass bottle is 9 cents cheaper, so she can earn 1 cents and 3 cents for half a catty of honey, and 4 cents and 5 cents for a catty of honey.

Zhou Min smiled indifferently, "It's better to have some income than to have no income at all."

"Maybe I have a way to increase the price of honey." Ning Xi pursed her lips and smiled, seeing such a good opportunity to make money, there was no reason not to, besides, Zhou Tong had helped them countless times, and Zhou Tong He and Lu Nan are life and death comrades in arms, so she has to help others no matter what.

When Xu Ailing heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law really has a way?"

"I'm not sure yet, but I can give you an answer tonight at the latest." Honey packaging is not a big problem, and the most important problem now is the sales channel.

The supply and marketing cooperatives in the town still forget it. After repacking and taking them, the supply and marketing cooperatives will also keep the prices down.

She wants to send honey to the urban area. The price in the urban area is higher than here. If the honey is sent there, the other party will lower the price. She and Zhou Tong's family can earn at least half a catty of honey. Dime.

As for how to send it to the urban area, it depends on whether Chow Tai Fook's relationship can be used.

After Zhou Min packed the honey, Zhou Tong also came back, saying that all the representatives sent by the villages had gone to the village committee.

Ning Xi followed Zhou Tong to the village committee, and everyone brought yellow peaches and apricots from their own villages to Ning Xi.

Zhou Tong explained from the side, "I picked these randomly, I tried them, and they are very sweet." Ning Xi tried a few, and they were indeed quite sweet. In fact, it doesn't matter whether they are sweet or not, what she needs is fruit Good appearance is not just some crooked melons and cracked dates.

After communicating with these representatives, the two sides negotiated the recovery price. Zhou Tong upheld the spirit of doing practical things for the common people, and once again agreed to borrow the car from the town to haul it.

"Well, pick from tomorrow. Everyone who is a fruit grower should know that the storage time of the fruit is limited. In order to prevent damage, please be careful when picking the fruit and try not to break the skin. In addition, in order to reduce the damage caused by bad fruit. losses, only 3 vehicles per village per day."

As soon as Ning Xi said this, there were all kinds of dissatisfied voices from below. Everyone wanted to sell the fruit quickly, so they were willing to wait all the time.

Hearing everyone's dissatisfaction, Ning Xi said in a loud voice, "If you can't accept this arrangement, you can find a way to find a seller yourself. I really can't help you collect all the fruits at once."

As soon as Ning Xi said this, everyone quieted down. If they could find a seller, their apricots wouldn't rot in the ground, and they wouldn't lose everything.

"Boss Ning, can you collect the apricots first? Most of the first batch of apricots in our village rotted in the field. If the second batch rots in the field, it will really lose everything."

Ning Xi thought for a while, then looked at the village head of Zhangcun, "Are there any apricots in Zhangcun?"

The village chief shook his head, "It's gone."

"Then start harvesting from other villages, collecting 5 carts a day, until the apricots are gone, and then start harvesting yellow peaches at the rate of 3 carts per village per day." After thinking about it, Ning Xi looked at the same representative who was also sent over. Zhou Min, "Xiao Min, you have to rush down the mountain to take care of your sister-in-law. You have picked all the yellow peaches in these two days."

The reason why Ning Xi opened the back door to Zhou Min in front of so many people was because he didn't want the villagers to misunderstand the Zhou family, thinking that they got the priority to sell yellow peaches because of Zhou Tong's relationship.

Zhou Tong understood what Ning Xi meant, so he explained with a smile, "My daughter-in-law is due in half a month, and I really need Xiao Min to help take care of her."

The village head immediately smiled and said, "In the past two days, everyone has nothing to do to help Xiaomin collect the yellow peaches. If you finish harvesting earlier, Xiaomin can go down the mountain to take care of Xiaoxu earlier."

The Zhangcun representative who was present immediately nodded and agreed, "No problem."

If it wasn't for Zhou Tong's help, all their apricots would have rotted in the ground like those in other villages. If it wasn't for Zhou Tong, they don't know how much their yellow peaches could sell. Reason to help.

*
In just two days, more than half of the shopkeepers waiting outside the Lu family's door to pick up the goods have decreased, and these people are all here to pick up dried fish and spicy sticks, and no one has taken the canned fruits.

This made everyone in the Lu family a little anxious. Even the workers had changed. Because there was no business, everyone became lazy, and they were not as active in doing things as before. From time to time, they stood together to discuss a few words. The salary, and the second is that I am afraid that such a good job will be lost.

Wang Xiuqin couldn't bear it any longer, and yelled at Lu Zheng, "Third brother, why don't you call Xiao Nan, if this continues, the canned food can't be sold, it will only be a loss."

Lu Zhenghai was also worried, "I thought so too. There were quite a few people taking canned food yesterday, why suddenly no one would take it today."
