Chapter 121: Fruit vendors robbed

Deng Yumei went to the hospital to make trouble while she was pregnant, and Gu Mingzhu only found out about it the next day.

She immediately called Gu Shan and said, "Uncle, this time Zhao Chunxia and I have the same opinion."

"Don't even mention it for Guodong, even if it's for yourself, you can't give Deng Yumei a dime!"

Gu Shan nodded hurriedly upon hearing this, "Mingzhu, I know. You don't have to worry about me, just focus on your own things."

He already felt embarrassed that he was sick and hospitalized and couldn't help his niece.

Now he has to ask his niece to call him to remind him, which makes him feel even more guilty.

Gu Mingzhu also knew that he felt a little embarrassed.

But she still said what she needed to say.

She hung up the phone only after she was sure that Gu Shan had heard her.

After hanging up the phone, she let out a long sigh.

Song Ze, who was standing by, raised his eyebrows when he saw this. "What's wrong?"

Gu Mingzhu briefly explained the matter, and then said: "I don't know if there is something wrong with our family's ancestral grave. My father and mother are gone, and my uncle has to encounter so many bad things."

That would be fine, but there’s also a grandmother at home who is extremely selfish!

In other words, we are living in a society ruled by law now. If this had happened in ancient times, Lin Guihua would definitely have sold all of them siblings for money!

Song Ze has been living under the same roof with Song Mingzhu in recent months, and he knows more or less about the affairs of the Gu family.

Seeing that she was worried about these things, Song Ze said, "Every family has its own problems. Just let it go and everything will be fine."

When Gu Mingzhu heard this, she asked him curiously, "Does your family also have these things?"

"Whose family doesn't have one?" Song Ze said calmly, "Our family is fighting for the right to speak and the right to inherit, while your family is fighting for the house and the land."

"But aren't they essentially the same?"

Gu Mingzhu nodded in approval, "It is indeed similar."

Whether it is inheritance rights, houses or land, it is ultimately a fight for assets.

It's just that one is big and the other is small.

"So, you don't need to let these things affect your mood." Song Ze said, "And this is all personal fate. He met such a wife, which is his own hurdle."

"After waiting, everything will be fine. If he can't get over it, he will never get over it in his life."

"Others can only give some pointers, but whether he can pass this test depends on himself."

Gu Mingzhu was particularly surprised by Song Ze's words.

She stared at him without blinking, "No, Deputy Section Chief Song, why do I feel like you smell like an old man at such a young age!?"

Old man smell! ?

Song Ze's eyes widened, "Why do I smell like an old man!?"

"Listen to what you said. Those who know would say you are open-minded." Gu Mingzhu teased him, "Those who don't know would think you were a monk who returned to secular life!"

When Song Ze saw that she was in the mood to tease him, he knew that she was in a much better mood.

But he had no intention of rushing her to work.

But Gu Mingzhu is not the kind of person who is easily defeated by negative emotions.

She took a break and then continued to work. She was busy for more than half a month. Before Minghua took the exam, she had already visited all the seedling bases across the country.

The system also records the situation of each base.

We can just go back and manage it directly, and there is no need for Gu Mingzhu to go to the site again.

When Boss Zhang learned that Gu Mingzhu was going back to the village, he immediately called her and said, "Mingzhu, go directly to the nursery base. Fatty and I are on our way there."

"The melons over there are starting to ripen. We can pick some first!"

When Boss Zhang said this, Gu Mingzhu patted her head and said, "Oh, I almost forgot about this! How are the melons in the field now?"

"Some of them are ripe," said Boss Zhang. "Both the cantaloupe and the watermelon are very sweet!"

"You can eat it when you come back!"

When she was told that she could eat watermelon and cantaloupe, Gu Mingzhu didn't hesitate.

Early the next morning, she and Song Ze went into the watermelon field.

Boss Zhang personally selected one that was cooked just right for them and handed the knife to Gu Mingzhu.

Gu Mingzhu took the knife and carefully cut the watermelon into small, even pieces.

With every cut, you can hear a crisp sound, and the tender and juicy melon flesh appears before your eyes.

Gu Mingzhu couldn't wait to pick up a piece of watermelon and put it in her mouth. In an instant, a sweet juice burst in her mouth.

The sweet taste flows through the throat like a clear spring, bringing a refreshing coolness.

She closed her eyes and savored the wonderful taste.

Seeing her satisfied face, Boss Zhang said with a smile: "How is this melon? Is it delicious?"

Gu Mingzhu gave a thumbs up and said, "I originally thought that a sugar content of 12 or 13 for this melon would be pretty good."

But based on the taste just now, the sugar content of this watermelon is at least fourteen!

Song Ze also thought that this melon was very good. "It has a thin skin, good flesh, and high sweetness. I'm afraid that once this melon is taken out, it will be sold out immediately."

Pull it out! ?

Upon hearing this, Boss Zhang said directly, "Deputy Section Chief Song, there is no need to take the melons grown by Mingzhu out. Someone already placed an order with us a month ago!"

"When they leave the fields, we pay Mingzhu 26 yuan per pound for good melons and 15 yuan per pound for inferior melons. But once we resell them, we can basically make a profit of 20 to 25 yuan difference."

Boss Zhang is a down-to-earth person.

He never hid from Gu Mingzhu how much he took and how much he sold.

He even made no secret of how much these watermelons sold for at the fruit store. "I estimate that this batch of watermelons and cantaloupes will sell for at least 61 kilograms at the fruit store!"

Watermelon for 60 yuan a pound! ?
If this had happened before the end of the world, he would have been criticized terribly.

But now, you have to buy it early even at 60 yuan per pound!

If you go too late, it won’t be your turn.

There is no way. So many people across the country want to eat fruits, but Mingzhu is the only place in the world that can grow fruits!
Now, these one hundred acres of cantaloupe and one hundred acres of watermelon sound like a lot.

But if they are all ripe, they can all be sold in two days at most!

And it takes two days not because the melons cannot be sold out, but because it takes two days to pick them!
After all, this is two hundred acres of land, not two acres!
It always takes some time to pick melons!
Otherwise, he and the fat guy would definitely be able to sell all the melons in one night!
Not only these melons, but even the one hundred acres of grapes next door are now being eyed by fruit merchants from all over the country!
Boss Zhang said, "Luckily there are still melons at the 10,000-acre base, otherwise Fatty and I would be hunted down by fruit merchants from all over the country!"
