Chapter 340: Let me pack some vegetables and take them back(1/3)

 Li You returned to the kitchen and continued busy.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Ling Xiaoru and Chu Yiwei arrived together.

I will continue to eat spicy mountain crab tonight. Therefore, Li You invited Chu Yiwei to come over for dinner tonight.

Chu Yiwei agreed.

Li You took out two freshly cooked tender corns, handed them to Ling Xiaoru and Chu Yiwei respectively, and said, "I'll treat you to this first."

Ling Xiaoru and Chu Yiwei were both surprised and surprised, "Tender corn? Is there already tender corn now?"

Li You said: "Yes, but there are still very few. Grandpa Donghai from the village came here today to sell young corn, and gave me four as a gift..."

Li You briefly explained the situation when Li Donghai came to sell corn in the afternoon.

Ling Xiaoru and Chu Yiwei understood, and then they both said, "Thank you Grandpa Donghai for the corn. Of course, I also want to thank the boss."

Later, the two people also said that they like to eat boiled baby corn very much, and they didn't expect to eat it so early this year.

Very happy!

Seeing that the two people were happy, Li You was also very happy. He took out two more teacups, poured two cups of water in which the corn and corn silk had just been boiled, handed them to them, and said, "I'll treat you to two more cups of this."<

/p>

"What is this?" both asked.

"Dragon Beard Tea! Good stuff!" Li You said.

"I know what it is? This is the water in which corn has been boiled." Both of them said.

The water characteristics of boiled corn are relatively obvious. Anyone who has boiled corn should be able to recognize it.

"Boss, why do you want us to drink this?"

"This is water boiled with corn silk. Drinking it is very good for your health."

"Really?"

"Of course. Corn whiskers are also called dragon whiskers. They are treasures."

"Okay then."

Neither of them refused. The boiled corn water was not unpleasant to drink. The boss said drinking it was good for the body, so they just drank it.

Then, the two people went upstairs with corn and dragon beard tea.

They went upstairs to watch TV, eat, and of course drink.

Li You himself also picked up a piece of tender corn and started eating it.

This corn is really delicious. The corn flavor is very rich.

Such delicious corn is hard to find in the city.

After eating slowly, Li You also drank a cup of dragon beard tea.

The taste is slightly sweet and feels pretty good.

The time slowly reached nine o'clock in the evening, and the last wave of customers finished eating and left.

Li You has already prepared the dishes for the three of him. In addition to the spicy mountain crab, there are also stir-fried bitter gourd, catfish, and tomato and egg soup.

Close the door and let’s eat.

After bringing all the food and wine to the second floor, Ling Xiaoru said: "Boss, the corn just now is delicious. Will Grandpa Donghai come to sell corn tomorrow? If he comes again, I want to buy some."

Li You said: "I want to come. When I left this afternoon, I agreed to come back to sell it tomorrow."

"That's great!" Ling Xiaoru was very happy, "Then when Grandpa Donghai comes tomorrow, if I'm not here, you can buy some for me. Buy ten. I will transfer the money to you then."

"Why did you buy so many?" Li You said.

"Eat! Ten is not much!"

"Okay."

Then, we started eating. There was spicy mountain crab again tonight, and both Ling Xiaoru and Chu Yiwei were very happy.

……

The next day.

Seven o'clock in the morning. Not long after Li You got up, Chu Yiwei also got up.

Today is Monday, she has to go to class.

After washing up, Li You cooked a small bowl of Yangchun noodles. After Chu Yiwei finished eating and paid, she said goodbye and went back to school.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Ling Xiaoru came down from upstairs, looked outside the door, and said, "Isn't Grandpa Donghai here yet?"

Li You said: "It shouldn't be so early."

Ling Xiaoru said: "Then you can buy it for me later. I will transfer the money to you, 50 yuan, right?"

Li You nodded.

Ling Xiaoru took out her mobile phone to transfer money, "A small bowl of Yangchun noodles this morning, the total is 59 yuan... That's it."

Li You nodded, "Okay."

Then she cooked a small bowl of Yangchun noodles, and Ling Xiaoru said goodbye and left after eating.

At 10:30 in the morning, Li You was resting on the rocking chair in front of the store.

A customer who bought corn yesterday has arrived.

The guest said to Li You: "Boss, isn't Mr. Donghai coming here to sell corn today? Isn't he here yet?"

Li You said: "It's not here yet. But it should be here soon."

The guest added: "I cooked the two corns I bought yesterday and they were delicious. It's rare to eat such delicious corns. So, I plan to buy some more today."

Li You smiled and said: "I think it's delicious too. The corn flavor is very strong."

"Yes, the smell of corn is very strong. I don't know what kind it is? It looks a bit like waxy corn, but it doesn't seem to be the same."

"It doesn't look like waxy corn to me. I asked Grandpa Donghai yesterday, and he didn't know what variety it was. He always leaves the two largest corns as seeds every year, and then uses the seeds to grow seedlings himself in the second year. Every year

Keep the best corn for planting, and the corn will become more and more delicious year by year. I guess this is the reason."

The guest said: "This is great. Boss, don't you also grow corn at home? Is the corn from Mr. Donghai's delicious? If not, you can ask him to leave two more corns for seeding and buy them for him."



Li You smiled and said: "I do have such an idea."

While the two were talking, they suddenly saw Li Donghai riding a car into the parking lot.

Sure enough, it arrived soon.

Li You said: "Grandpa Donghai is here, I will go over and help him move the corn."

The guest said: "I'll help too."

"That's good."

The two of them walked to the parking lot together.

When they arrived at the parking lot, both of them greeted Li Donghai.

Li Donghai was very happy and said hello to the two of them.

Then, the three people moved all the corns to the front of the store. There were more than 150 corns in total.

"By the way, Grandpa Donghai. How much corn do you have in your house that is ready to be eaten?" Li You asked.

Li Donghai said: "I have planted two acres of this kind of corn, and there are about 900 of them. What I sold yesterday, plus today's, there are more than 360. There are still more than 500 left."

There are about 900 pieces in total. If they are all sold out, there will be an income of about 4,500 yuan.

This is quite good. It is much better than harvesting dried corn and selling it later.

If you harvest dry corn, you can harvest 300 kilograms from two points of land, which is considered a high yield. Even if you sell it for two yuan per kilogram, it is only 600 yuan.

Not on the same level at all.

So, why doesn’t everyone sell tender corn on the cob?

It can only be said that tender corn cobs are not that easy to sell. Especially when tender corn cobs are put on the market on a large scale.

Moreover, the time for corn cobs to grow from tender to old is very short, only about ten days.

Although the corn cobs at this time cannot be harvested yet, they can no longer be cooked and eaten as tender corn.

It’s not that you can’t eat it, it’s that it doesn’t taste good.

Therefore, there is not much time to sell tender corn cobs.

Therefore, it is not easy to make money by selling tender corn cobs.

Of course, many people grow corn primarily just to harvest dry corn.

"Old man, your corn is delicious. I will buy four more today." The guest said at this time.
