Farming Routine After Returning From Interstellar - Chapter 35
The next day, when it was just dawn, a small truck quietly drove into the entrance of Huayuan Village.
Father Su, Su Chen, and Su Mu were already busy in the vegetable field. Several large bamboo baskets were carefully padded with straw to prevent the tender vegetables from being damaged when the road was bumpy. Two of the boxes were full. The rest are yet to be filled.
The driver of Ruishang supermarket and an employee got out of the car, and Su Mu asked in a loud voice, “But the people from Ruishang have arrived?”
A hearty voice responded: “Exactly, Miss Su, Mr. Fu asked us to come over and pull the dishes.”
Su Mu: “Then please wait a little longer, it is still picking, it is estimated that it will take about half an hour.”
The two walked in, and Su Mu could see their faces clearly. One was a driver with a big shoulder and a round waist. He looked upright and had an indescribable heroic spirit. The other is an old lady with a refreshing face.
The uncle of the driver said, “We came early, and Mr. Fu asked us to help with the picking.”
“It’s so embarrassing, you came here early, and you have to go to the ground to help. It’s too hard.”
The aunt heard the words and smiled: “Don’t say that, it’s within the scope of responsibilities, and besides, we will be in charge of pulling dishes in the future, and Mr. Fu will forgive us and give us an extra salary. Miss Su, don’t refuse, otherwise Mr. Fu will be there. Not good to explain.”
The words have already been said, so Su Mu will no longer refuse, but there are not so many knives, and it is unhygienic to pinch with nails. In the end, Su’s father took the bamboo pieces on the top of the basket, and sharpened the bamboo pieces with a knife. , The vegetables are delicate, and the use of a bamboo knife does not affect it.
Su Mu led them to the water spinach area, “Uncle and auntie, you are responsible for picking water spinach. When cutting, try not to cut too low, leave about two fingers, so that the second crop will grow.”
“Okay, we know.”
After saying this, Su Mu returned to her original position. Amaranth can actually keep the rhizome for the second stubble, and the side branches will continue to grow, but now it is summer, and it is easier to bolt and bloom, so she uproots it, so that both It can lock the moisture of the amaranth to the greatest extent, and it will look more beautiful and beautiful, and the roots are also very tender, which is completely edible.
She has grown two varieties of amaranth, one is red amaranth and the other is white amaranth. There is not much difference in taste between the two. They are both tender and smooth. They can be fried in salads or made in soup. The only difference is the color. , Many people do not like the color of red amaranth, like blood.
Su Mu uprooted the amaranth and shook off the soil at the roots. The soil here was soft, and with a gentle shake, the roots became clean. While looking at the movements of the uncle and aunt from the corner of the eye, their work was surprisingly neat, and the cut spinach was neat. She was relieved and devoted herself to picking vegetables.
All of them are good at work, only Su Chen is slower, Su Mu asked him to go home and pick some pumpkin seedlings and loofah seedlings in the vegetable garden. The vegetables that have been eaten, move here together.
The four of them worked for less than half an hour before picking all the vegetables that could be picked. The vegetable field suddenly became bald on one side and bald on the other side, and it didn’t look as neat as before.
Everyone worked together to carry the basket to the side of the truck, and it took several trips to move it.
The next step is the weighing, because the Luokuang belongs to the Su family, and I didn’t think of this before, so I don’t know how much the basket weighs, so I can only weigh it together with the vegetables, and then deduct the weight of the basket and straw.
“Miss Su, please rest assured, we Ruishang will not do those things that steal money.”
Su Mu smiled and said, “It’s okay, I believe you.”
It can only be loaded into the truck after it has been weighed. The maximum weight of the water spinach is 332 pounds, and the next one is the red amaranth, which is 306 pounds… The least is the cabbage. Because it is not many, it is only fifty eight pounds.
The finishing work here is in progress, Su Chen drove the car to pull out the vegetables from the garden.
A small basket of pumpkin seedlings, a large handful of loofah seedlings, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc., and finally a large basket of sweet potatoes, which were dug up when we were raising vegetable seedlings, but I haven’t eaten them since there were too many. It’s over, but Mother Su kept it well, and it looked like it had just been dug out of the ground.
Su Mu explained to the two of them: “This is all produced in my own vegetable garden, and the taste is even better than that in the vegetable field. I discussed this with your President Fu last night, what do you think?”
The uncle driver nodded: “Well, President Fu also mentioned a few words yesterday. Miss Su, our President Fu said that as long as you take things out of your hands, you can take them.”
Su Mu didn’t expect Fu Da to trust her so much, she was very happy, and said with a smile, “That’s good, let’s call them all. It’s almost six o’clock, you have to rush back to the shelves.”
Except for the sweet potato, which is a little heavier, weighing 245 pounds, the rest range from a few to a dozen pounds.
The aunt helped to record. After recording, she handed the notebook to Su Mu to check whether there were any mistakes.
Su Mu checked it carefully, the data were all correct, and returned the book to the aunt: “No problem.”
“Then Miss Su, let’s go back now.” The uncle driver closed the door of the truck and came over to greet her.
Su Mu nodded: “Okay, uncle and aunt, pay attention to safety on the road.”
“Thank you Miss Su, let’s go.”
The three watched the pickup van leave, and then got into the van to go home.
Su Chen drove the car with a happy tone: “That means, Mumu has been credited with hundreds of thousands of dollars this morning?”
Su Mu rolled his eyes: “Don’t exaggerate the facts, it’s only a hundred thousand at most, where did you get the hundreds of thousands?”
“That’s a lot, okay?”
Father Su didn’t speak, and was still in a trance. What do rich people think? Dozens of pieces of vegetables per pound are also bought, but they are not meat.
He can only sigh that the world has changed so much, and he has finally fallen behind.
After returning home, Mother Su had already prepared breakfast and made rice balls. The rice **** were filled with beef diced, fried eggs, carrot diced and cucumber diced, delicious and filling.
This rice ball was taught by Su Mu before.
The rice **** made by Mother Su were exquisite and small, and the white rice tightly wrapped the ingredients in it. One bite at a time, Su Mu’s cheeks were bulging, and she looked very cute.
“Mom, why do you get up so early?” When Su Mu saw her brother pulling out so many vegetables just now, she knew that her mother must have also helped to pick them.
Mother Su knocked on her daughter’s head and said angrily, “Go ahead and talk.”
“You are all busy, how can I still sleep.”
So she prepared breakfast and wanted to eat it as soon as they got back.
Su Chen stuffed a rice ball into his mouth, “Mom, we’re not going to do heavy work.”
Mother Su glared at him, “Is it wrong to wake up with me?”
Father Su hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, my son and daughter are all concerned about you.”
“That’s up to you to say.”
Su Chen and Su Mu looked at each other, and the deep smiles in their eyes could not escape.
After filling their stomachs, Mother Su drove them back to the room and went back to sleep. I did get up early this morning, and rushed to the field before 5:30 to work on the field. I kept bending over to pick vegetables, and my waist and arms were indeed a little sore. .
After Su Mu took a shower, she slept on the soft bed and fell asleep after a while.
The Su family returned to peace.
Facing the breeze and the rising sun in the morning, the pickup truck arrived in front of the warehouse at the back door of the supermarket in less than an hour. It was not yet seven o’clock.
The driver jumped out of the car and said to the employees who had been waiting for a long time, “Quick, quick, it can be put on the shelf after a simple tidying up.”
The morning is the time when many people come to the supermarket, especially the fruit and vegetable areas, because the vegetables in the morning are the freshest.
This leaves little time for employees, who must tidy up the shelves before the peak of traffic in the morning.
In fact, it’s a bit late now, but fortunately, the vegetables in Su’s family are very good, with few dead leaves and old leaves, and they are very clean. They don’t even use water, but Ruishang has always adhered to the concept of service first, and the employees are still very careful. to clean up the vegetables.
Fu Da attaches great importance to the cooperation with Su Mu, and has set up a special responsible team. They will be mainly responsible for the sorting, stocking and sales of Su’s dishes in the future. In addition, he also opened a special area for vegetables in Sanmu, which is the most conspicuous position in the vegetable area.
Sanmu was the code name of Su Mu when she was in Interstellar. In order to start the brand, she called the things she produced as Sanmu. It is the same in modern times. Three Mu words.
With the joint efforts of the employees, the delicately packaged vegetables have been neatly placed on the shelves, the price tags have been attached, and the bulk vegetables have also been placed. There are employees who are responsible for weighing in the Sanmu vegetable area. , is extremely considerate.
Yu Xia is a nanny from a wealthy family. She serves well and cooks delicious food. She is proficient in Chinese food and western pastries. Because of this, her annual salary is very high, more than enough than the average white-collar worker. She is very satisfied with this job.
It’s just that the young lady’s appetite has become very picky recently, and she is dissatisfied with the dishes she cooks for several days in a row.
She has worked here for more than ten years. Knowing that the young lady is not picking on her thorns, but really can’t eat it, she can be regarded as watching the young lady grow up, and she is also anxious.
On this day, she used to come to Ruishang supermarket to buy fresh vegetables, only to find that after one night, the vegetable area has changed, and a new Sanmu vegetable area has been added.
Merchants pay great attention to profits, and the big tossing and big actions show that this area can bring huge profits to the boss, and it also means that the quality of the goods is very high, and the price is the same.
Yu Xia walked in without even thinking about it. She planned to try new vegetables, which might be useful.
Judging from the vision she has been in charge of for more than ten years, these vegetables are really good. Look at this little cabbage, it is as green as it was carved out of jade.
When she saw the price tag, she lost her composure. Although she had been prepared in her heart, the price was far beyond her psychological expectations. A small handful of water spinach cost 159 yuan for only 180 grams!
Bulk Chaotian peppers are more expensive, up to two hundred and fifty-nine.
The vegetables here are only sweet potatoes, which are cheaper, but they also cost 99 yuan per pound.
She couldn’t help asking the service staff here: “Why are your prices so expensive? This is still domestic.”
The waiter said with a smile: “Look at this test report. The nutritional value of Sanmu vegetables is several times higher than that of ordinary vegetables, and the taste is very good. The price is really not expensive.”
Yu Xia’s education level is not low. She probably understood this report and was speechless. If this is the case, it is indeed worth the money.
The clerk took out another plate of diced tomatoes, “You can try it.”
Before the tomatoes could be eaten, she smelled the strong fragrance, which made her saliva drool.
Yu Xia poked a small piece of it with a toothpick and put it in her mouth. The sweet and sour tomatoes instantly melted, and the cool juice flowed down her throat. She was shocked. The taste was really good, but it was too little. Reminiscing about the taste just now.
The tasting gave her confidence and said to the waiter, “Help me pack a tomato.”
The clerk nodded and picked a red and beautiful one for her, Yu Xia was secretly satisfied.
Next, she bought two more green peppers, a handful of white amaranth, and added a moderate-sized sweet potato after thinking about it.
When I checked out, my heart was very painful, and the hundreds of them were gone.
On the way back, she began to figure out what to make for breakfast later.
Maybe roasted sweet potatoes would be a good choice.
