Chapter 475 475. Life of making money

Early in the morning, Song Tan's family was bustling again.

Song Sancheng sat on a bench, in front of him were three old men and women - although there were not many people, at this time, all the elderly people who could work in the village were basically in their family.

After all, there were only so many people in the village, two or three strong laborers planting rice, three or five old people weaving straw mats, and two aunts picking tea (there was less tea in summer)...

Now that a group of people have gone out to work, there are only so many laborers left.

What's more, the yield of golden cherry is actually average, only 700 to 800 kilograms per acre, and this has to be calculated according to the yield in the peak fruit period -

Now let's not talk about whether those on the mountain have an acre of land, anyway, there are not as many fruits as flowers.

Otherwise, Guo Dong must be very rich to have the courage to take it all!

She couldn't use so many herbs in a short time, so Song Tan simply discussed with Secretary Xiao Zhu and first found three low-income households who couldn't do hard work.

This thing doesn't require much technical skills. Pick the fruit slowly, and then slowly bake and process it later... There's no rush.

Otherwise, find a strong laborer, run for a day, and then all the fruits will be picked! This thing is not charged by the day.

"Come on, come and get the gloves, baskets, hooks, and scissors. Don't use your own gloves for the sake of convenience. I bought these gloves specially and they are thicker. And, put on your coats, otherwise I won't be responsible if you get pricked..."

Although there were only three people, Song Sancheng still shouted very vigorously, as if there were three or two hundred people in front of him.

The old lady next to him glanced at him: "Your advice is in vain? Who in our village wears short clothes when going up the mountain?"

She slowly took the gloves and looked at them over and over again: "What gloves? The calluses on my hands are thicker than yours."

As soon as she said this, someone laughed: "Old lady Chen, you are not afraid of being pricked. I saw it when I went to the mountain yesterday. The thorns of the golden cherry are long and short, and they are dense! I think these gloves are just thicker on the palm. It’s another matter whether they are useful or not."

The villagers laughed and laughed, and old lady Chen was also puzzled: "Chen San, why did you go up the mountain in such a hot weather?"

Chen San sighed: "I heard that people like to eat tender chestnuts now. My son saw someone selling chestnut bags on Douyin yesterday. He planned to go and see how big my chestnuts are and whether he can pick them and sell them in the city - guess how much the chestnut bags are?"

How much?

Everyone, including Song Sancheng, pricked up their ears——

"It's live on TikTok, green chestnut bags, 59 yuan for five pounds, free shipping." After all, tender chestnuts can't be stored, they will lose their freshness overnight, so they must be shipped with chestnut bags.

Of course, this is Chen San's guess, he didn't know that some people just like this chestnut bag because it's cute and fresh!

After all, every year when the chestnuts are cracked, this thing falls on your head, which is not only not fresh, but also bloody! It's all thanks to the helmet to save your life.

Wow!

Everyone was tempted.

This is about 10 to 20 yuan per pound!

And every family wants to have a chestnut orchard. Even if it hasn't been taken care of for many years, it still produces a lot of fruits year after year. It's a no-cost business!

Besides, the chestnut bag is so heavy! If you buy it like this, how many chestnuts are there in five pounds?

"But we don't understand the live broadcast, how to sell? And don't we grow them everywhere? They are not rare. If we sell them so expensively, people will scold us. It seems that the city sells tender chestnuts directly, without chestnut bags..."

Let's not talk about whether they can make money, the round trip fare is 40, this this this...

Finally, they carried the baskets and prepared to go up the mountain, after all...

"I'm not destined to make money."

Xiao Zhu, the secretary of the branch who was watching and eating breakfast:... Let's just say, whether you can make money or not, you should try it first!

She shook her head and sighed, turned her head and saw Wu Lan tying a plastic sheet around her waist to prevent waterproofing and piercing, and smiled at her: "Many of us villagers can't open our mouths or wipe our faces when we go out to sell things. Besides, these tender chestnuts can't be sold for a few days, and we have to go to the city specifically-people may not know the way, so they must think about giving up."

Xiao Zhu, the secretary of the branch, sighed: "I know."

...

And on the mountain.

Old Lady Chen disliked the inconvenience of wearing thick gloves, so she grabbed the golden cherry with one hand: "Ouch!"

She withdrew her hand in dismay: "Why are there so many thorns?"

Chen Laosan next to her laughed at her: "Look at you, I told you there were many thorns but you didn't believe it, you are at a disadvantage!"

But Old Lady Chen glanced at him: "You saw so many thorns yesterday, why don't you bargain today? Five yuan a pound is too little. Look at this, there are not many fruits!"

"Not a few, right?" Old Lady Li next to her had already quickly cut off several of them-

This thing has many thorns, and gloves may not be able to completely protect it. But they are all used to doing farm work, and they figured it out after a little look.

First, hook the branches over with a hook, then gently pinch the fruit with the gloves, and scissors click-it's done.

"Look, this fruit is still heavy when it's not dry, and it won't take long to get a pound. Maybe I can earn a hundred a day. Alas, it's too little."

One hundred a day, probably only one day. There will be no more fruit if you pick more.

"I don't think it will work - I'm not as quick as you."

Old Mrs. Chen felt even worse: "You see, the richer you are, the more stingy you are! Look at Song Youde, his third son built such a big building, and he hired us to work, but he only paid us this much a day. Let's not talk about other things, doesn't it require skills to weave straw mats? He only paid 70 per bed a day..."

"What are you saying!" Old Lady Li was unhappy: "Didn't your son buy a house in the city? Why didn't he say he would give you 70 yuan a day? Didn't you and your wife spend all the money for the house?"

"You can earn 70 yuan a day just by sitting and working. Song Youde also said that he could do it for several months... If I can do it, do you think I can run fast?"

"Besides, you have to be able to do it for 300 yuan a day to plant rice! It's not like the Song family can't find anyone."

Old Lady Chen was choked and felt a little embarrassed. At this moment, she was very unconvinced: "Look at you, you said so many good things, but his family has to raise your wages..."

Before Old Lady Li spoke, Old Lady Chen But the head laughed: "Old sister, sitting at home is also a day, do some work and you can earn money. Pick fruits today, clean them tomorrow, dry them the day after tomorrow... Look, you can earn hundreds of yuan in three days, which is enough for a month's living expenses, right?"

"Now we have to breathe after walking two miles, and no one wants us to work, why are you still not satisfied!"

"That's right!"

Old lady Li also quickly hooked a branch: "Besides, this is three days of work, but if you do it well, you will definitely get more in the future."

"You, don't talk too much, otherwise you won't have a chance to earn 50 yuan next time."

Old lady Chen:...

She just has such a mouth - why, people don't like to say something bad about her!

Just do it!

For golden cherry, I read the information, an adult man can pick dozens of kilograms of wild fruits a day, and Tan Tan's family still grows them in large areas, and it is not a physical job, so compared with picking fruits, I think the price of 5 yuan per kilogram is still acceptable.

Good night first, my cousin is coming to my house tonight, and time is a bit tight.
