Super Orchard

Chapter 190 Fruit Ripe
The cicadas are singing and the heat waves are hitting people. In the Jinquan Valley, the grass green has changed from the previous green to dark green, and midsummer is coming.

Temperature is an essential condition for the growth of almost all life. The higher the temperature, the more vigorous the growth of various animals and plants, and it is the same in the Golden Spring Orchard.

After entering midsummer, not only all the fruit trees burst out with unprecedented vitality, but also a large number of fruits matured in this season.

Wild grapes, dragon fruit, custard apple, durian, jackfruit, mangosteen, etc. have matured one after another, and all of them have produced attractive fruits.

At present, in the whole orchard, only avocado and rambutan have not yet bloomed and bear fruit, mainly because the planting time is too short, so Shen Guangguang is not in a hurry, but came to the mangosteen garden to pick some fruits to try.

Ripe mangosteens have turned purple-red, half the size of a small apple, and the skin of the fresh fruit is relatively soft, and it will be sunken when you press it with your fingers.

Shen Yangguang forgot to bring a fruit knife, so he started directly, pressed the two sections of the mangosteen with his fingers, and broke them apart. During this process, Shen Yangguang was very careful, he knew that if he accidentally stained the purple juice on the fruit shell On the snow-white flesh, it will seriously affect the taste of mangosteen, and if it is stained on clothes, it is difficult to wash it off.

After breaking open the husk, petals of flesh are revealed, just like garlic. Although the appearance is very similar, the taste is completely different.

As the "Queen of Fruits", mangosteen is very different from durian, known as the "King of Fruits", in every aspect.

The two, one hot and the other cold, after eating the tonic durian, eating the cool mangosteen has the effect of clearing away heat, which can be described as a match made in heaven.

Different from the strong smell of durian, mangosteen is too graceful, and the smell it emits is very light. If you don’t smell it carefully, you can’t feel its fruity smell at all, mainly because the chemical composition of its smell is about Between a few tenths and a few hundredths of other fruits.

The only thing similar to durian is that the mangosteen tastes extremely delicious. Shen Yangguang quickly ate up one mangosteen, and then broke open another one and ate it.

Because mangosteen is the coldest fruit, some weak and cold people can't eat more, but Shen Yangguang's body is far superior to ordinary people, as long as he can eat it, he can eat a few catties at a time, so he Don't worry about this at all.

After eating a few mangosteens in a row, Shen Yangguang stopped with satisfaction, turned around and walked out of the mangosteen shed, and came to the custard apple garden. During the process, Shen Yangguang made a detour to the office and brought a fruit knife.

Like mangosteen, custard apple is also the first ripe fruit in Jinquan Orchard, so Shen Yangguang has long been itching and wanted to taste it, but now it is finally ripe.

Because the cherimoya is just ripe, only a very few fruits become soft, and only when the skin is softened can they be eaten.

After picking a ripe custard apple, Shen Yangguang cut it open with a fruit knife, peeled off the skin, cut the custard apple into small pieces, forked a piece with a knife and put it in his mouth to taste slowly.

After the pulp enters the mouth, the first thing you feel is sweetness. The sweetness of custard apple is very high, about 25 degrees to [-] degrees. Although it is not as sweet as Huanglong fruit, it has already surpassed most The fruit left behind.

In addition to sweetness, the taste of custard apples is also very special, which is very different from other fruits. Shen Guangguang likes this taste very much, and can't help but eat one piece after another.

While eating, Shen Yangguang suddenly remembered that he saw a poem called "Sakya Fruit" on the Internet some time ago. Sakyamuni is another name for custard apple. It was written by Ming Dynasty poet Shen Guangwen specifically for custard apple. As a member of the old Shen family, Shen Guangwen also loves custard apples very much.

Although the name of custard apple also has the word "lychee", but unlike lychees that will get angry if you eat too much, you don't need to worry about eating custard apples.

Rubbing his belly, Shen Yangguang felt a little full after eating a few mangosteens and two custard apples, so he stopped to continue looking for ripe custard apples, washed his hands in the small spring in the middle of the greenhouse, and The fruit knife wobbled back to the office.

Now that more than half of the fruits in the orchard are ripening one after another, Zhou Jianguo, who is in charge of marketing, rarely stays in the office for days, and starts to count the sales data of each store and customer feedback, and prepares to roughly figure out the share of various fruits distributed to each store.

Shen Yangguang, the hands-off shopkeeper, walked lazily into the deputy general manager's office, sat down on the sofa, and said with his thighs crossed, "Vice President Zhou, how are the shares of each store doing?"

After speaking, he even hiccupped. It seemed that he ate too much fruit just now, which made Shen Yangguang a little embarrassed.

Zhou Jianguo raised his head and said with a smile: "The approximate delivery share has been prepared, and I am just going to show it to you."

Shen Yangguang waved his hand and said, "You can just decide it yourself, don't show it to me."

These words have an image of a big boss who is doubtful and unsuspecting. In fact, Shen Yangguang simply thinks that 150 stores are too many and doesn't bother to look at them.

Zhou Jianguo nodded and said, "Should we increase the distribution volume of the dozen or so stores in the Black HB area?"

Shen Yangguang happened to have the same idea. After thinking for a while, he said: "The distribution volume of these dozen stores will increase by another [-]% on the original basis."

Zhou Jianguo pondered for a while and asked, "Is [-]% too much? Although we want to expand the reputation of these stores that have not been well-known in time, these stores are not located in economically developed areas, and the consumption level is also very limited. , Will increasing so much affect the performance of other stores with large sales volume?"

Regarding this matter, Shen Yangguang often thought about it before, and said: "There is no problem with this. First of all, you know that our fruits are special. Although the consumption level of those stores is very average, these fruits can always be sold after a long time." .”

"Secondly, you also know the quality of our fruit. The insurance period is much longer than that of similar fruits. Among the fruits listed together in this batch, only wild grapes have a slightly shorter shelf life, so wild wine does not need to be special. The delivery volume has been expanded, and other durian, jackfruit, mangosteen, dragon fruit, and custard apples are all increased by [-]%, and there is no problem."

"Finally, because something happened to these stores in the Black HB district when they opened a few months ago, the reputation of the stores did not achieve the expected effect we wanted, so this time we must increase the amount of self-produced fruit, and continue to Keep the word-of-mouth fermentation among customers, and make our store famous as soon as possible."

After a pause, Shen Yangguang went on to say: "The reason why we want to increase the reputation of the store is that we basically only have one store in every county and city. If there are suddenly more people around each store Competitors, then it will be even more difficult for us to improve, so let's take advantage of the current moment!"
