Chapter 3 A Sudden Shortcut

The optimization liquid produced by the system can actually extract as much as Gu Chen wants, which surprised Gu Chen.

Looking at a transparent plastic bottle that suddenly appeared in his hand, which contained 100ml of an unknown transparent liquid, Gu Chen was a little disappointed.

Regardless of this, Gu Chen exchanged the optimization liquid for ten liters of half bucket of water at a ratio of one to one hundred, and walked towards the vegetable field at the door with it.

Because Wei Jianguo was at home alone, my grandfather didn't grow many vegetables. Although he grew some radishes, peppers, green vegetables, green beans, and cowpeas, the quantity was not much.

Of course, if there is nothing to do, Wei Jianguo will go to Gu Chen's uncle's house, and he will also bring some food over by the way.

Gu Chen estimated the amount, poured a spoonful of diluted optimization solution on these vegetables, and then left it alone, and waited to see the growth every day.

After breakfast, Gu Chen told Wei Jianguo to go to the town and do some shopping.

Wei Jianguo didn't care too much, and only told Gu Chen to be careful on the road, and to keep a close eye on his wallet in the town. There are many thieves in the town, especially around the farmers' market.

There is a cement road from the village to the town, and it only takes more than 20 minutes by van.If it was more than ten years ago when I was a child, I could only walk to the market, and it would take at least an hour to go over the mountains.

But it’s better now. Many young people bought cars at home, and tricycles for old people at home. Of course, there are also black cars that usually run on the road, so it is much more convenient to go to town and county.

After walking for a few minutes, Gu Chen arrived on the road, and after a few minutes of waiting, a van arrived.Although it is fully loaded, there is no such thing as overloading in this ravine. A seven-seater van will take at least a dozen people in the end.

In this way, Gu Chen was like a can of sardines. After squeezing together with more than a dozen people for more than 20 minutes, he finally got off the car at the entrance of the busiest farmers' market in the town.

"Hey, are you Gu Chen?"

Just as he got out of the car, before Gu Chen could catch his breath, he heard a voice next to him.

Looking up, a big brother wearing a plaid shirt, a beard, and a gold chain around his neck was staring at him.

After thinking about it for a while, Gu Chen felt that he didn't know this person, so he asked in surprise, "You are?"

The other party laughed: "I'll go, Gu Chen, I'm Fang Yong. You don't remember, I sat behind you in junior high school."

When Fang Yong said this, Gu Chen immediately remembered that this appearance was indeed his classmate Fang Yong when he was in junior high school in the county.

But at that time, Fang Yong's skin was a bit dark, he was not as tall as he is now, and he had a quiet personality, which was completely different from the image of the bearded uncle now.

"Ah, it turned out to be you, Fang Yong. I heard that you are now running your own business. Seeing your current physique, you must have made a fortune."

Although Fang Yong was relatively quiet when he was in junior high school, after ten years, in the current junior high school group, he is one of the few people who are more talkative and show off.

The few of them are doing business in their hometown, and they are in the group all day long, either inviting them to play cards and drink tea, or to show off where they are going to play.After a while, he said that those who won several thousand and lost ten to twenty thousand, Gu Chen, like most of his classmates, never took their words.

Hearing Gu Chen's words, Fang Yong pretended to laugh modestly, and waved his hands.

"Where do you make a fortune, that is, get some vegetable wholesale and earn some hard money. Oh, by the way, don't you work in Rongcheng?"

As soon as Gu Chen heard that the other party was a vegetable wholesaler, his mind became active. He must find a sales channel for his vegetables in the future, but now he can inquire about it through this junior high school classmate.

However, Gu Chen also has a little worry in it. After all, he was not very familiar with his classmates in junior high school. Now that it has been more than ten years, he does not know the details of the other party. Case.

So Gu Chen said with a smile: "I, I have something to do at home, I took two days off to come back and have a look."

Fang Yong smiled and said, "That's just a good time for us to get together with some classmates. Why don't we know if the old classmates are free?"

Gu Chen thought for a while and said, "I definitely can't do it today, I have other things to do. Let's do it another day."

"That's fine, you must come when the time comes. By the way, this is my mobile phone number, you should remember one first." Fang Yong reported his mobile phone number as he spoke.

While memorizing his mobile phone number, Gu Chen asked curiously, "By the way, where do you sell wholesale vegetables?"

"Where else can I go? Of course it is Rongcheng or Yudu. The markets in other prefecture-level cities are not so big, and they are all small wholesalers. Like us, we must supply to the provincial capital."

Hearing Gu Chen's words, Fang Yong said proudly, almost saying that he is that kind of big wholesaler.

"Oh, I didn't expect that your business is so big now, it's not a few million a year. Hey, those of us with dead wages are simply incomparable."

Gu Chen continued to ask, "Then do you all supply to those wholesale markets in the provincial capital? What about those high-end hotels and high-end shopping malls?"

Fang Yong shook his head: "What I am doing now is the wholesale of ordinary vegetables. Those high-end hotels and shopping malls have their own supply channels, and they will not buy from us. Many green farms and organic vegetable bases now specialize in selling vegetables. For high-end customers. But I still know some customers from these channels, after all, sometimes the supply of high-end vegetables is not so sufficient, so you have to get some goods from the general market."

Gu Chen didn't expect that there would be such a shady scene in high-end vegetables, and he took some ordinary vegetables as inferior ones, and couldn't help but despise those shopping malls that sold green and organic vegetables.

"Fortunately, I can't afford it, otherwise, if I knew that what I bought at a high price was the same as the vegetable market outside, I would be so angry." Gu Chen said a little happily.

Fang Yong smiled and said: "Hehe, don't listen to those things on TV. You don't use pesticides or fertilizers, and you want to ensure that the output is free from diseases and insect pests, and the quality is good. There is no such thing as the best of both worlds. Now we are really doing pollution-free organic agriculture. Yes, there are a few that really make money. Organic vegetables are not easy to sell, and we wholesalers who sell ordinary vegetables have become more and more difficult to do recently."

As soon as Gu Chen became interested, he asked curiously: "Didn't you go directly to the vegetable farm to collect vegetables? With your relationship for so many years, it's not easy to catch."

Fang Yong sighed: "There is a lot of competition now! In the past, we directly collected vegetables and sold them to wholesalers or wholesale markets. Here, we have the final say. But now, many vegetable merchants in provincial cities go to the villages to directly rent vegetables. Farmers’ land, and hiring them to grow vegetables at the same time seizes the supply of goods. We are not harvesting vegetables as well as before, which makes me want to rent land to grow vegetables directly.”

Hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his head.

"Hey... If I can directly purchase the vegetable fields that these wholesalers are planting, and then use the optimization solution to irrigate, then I don't have to wait a month or two, and I can harvest a batch of high-grade vegetables in just a week or two."
