Chapter 721: Song Youde's Heart

Proprietor Qian's life over the past two months could be described as comfortable and carefree.

Selling peaches in the seventh month earned enough profit for a year or two in one go, and now selling some seasonal fruits at the usual pace, there was absolutely nothing to worry about.

Not just him, Proprietor Wang was the same.

I don't know how many people were inquiring about the Yunqiao Immortal Peaches they were selling. If the yield hadn't been so low, they might have even made it to a trending topic or something! The supermarkets they had cooperated with also kept calling to ask if there were any more of the same quality.

It's a pity, such good peaches, why were so few planted?

The two of them would get together daily and have to rejoice once again that they had hidden the news well.

Although they were called "Yunqiao Immortal Peaches" on the boxes, there were so many places with the same name, and the climate and geographical conditions of Yuncheng weren't that superior, which is why no one else had beaten them to it.

Now, Proprietor Qian was happily checking his inventory when he received a call from Song Tan.

He couldn't help but have a face full of smiles, even though the other party couldn't see it at all, he was still passionate:

"Proprietor Song, how are your family's chestnuts growing? I've prepared everything here, just waiting for this wave of fruit to clear out before I head over."

I've brought such good tea leaves this time, the decorations definitely can't be of low quality!

She turned her head and looked at Proprietor Chang, who was standing at the restaurant entrance with his neck stretched long.

Coupled with the tea fragrance permeating the air...

It just so happened that now it was autumn, straw mats weren't selling well, and there wasn't much rush grass left, so Song Youde happily found the last bit of work for the old men and women, and he couldn't be happier inside!

【My old lady is working at the old Song family's place, earning more in a month than I do... I'm already eighty, no one wants me for other jobs.】

【Pick chestnuts early tomorrow morning, transport them to the truck, 150/day, 5 people.】

At past eight in the evening, the village group chat rang again. Everyone clicked in to take a look and couldn't help but deliberate:

"Proprietor Song, you can rest assured! I'll buy the ticket right now and head up the mountain tomorrow. You wait for us, you must wait for us!"

And the focus of the current business...

He packed up tea leaves and bought a large portion of dried tremella, white fungus, dried cowpeas, pickled cowpeas, and pickled chili...

Song Tan laughed: "Don't panic, what was promised to you will wait for you. However, my family's chestnuts are like the peaches; the price is not cheap. If you and Proprietor Wang still want to pack them, you have to think it through."

【Today is Sunday, we worked overtime during the day.】

"Knocking chestnuts is tiring, but the pay is good, I'll go do that."

Song Tan:... It's really not that much, I'm only selling about 100,000 worth of chestnuts this time.

Regardless of whether it matches the autumn or not, Proprietor Chang took a fancy to it at first sight!

While secretly cursing that Proprietor surnamed Chang in his heart: A restaurant owner, why compete with us for this? Is he full and got nothing to do?

—Waving his hand and millions are gone, the VIP partner has to be this one!

Proprietor Chang also earnestly instructed: "Master Wang, whatever ingredients there are, let's take them boldly!"

On this side, people in the village with labor power were chatting with each other, while in the group chat, fellow villagers from all over the country were chatting:

【I'm old, it's not bad to have 5,000; my factory only gave 4,500 last month.】

【Peel chestnuts at nine tomorrow morning, 5 people, 100/day.】

Song Tan was still as gentle and easy to talk to as before: "Soon, it'll be about ready in two or three days. You can come over now to arrange the process."

【Why is old Song from our village recruiting workers so often lately? I roughly calculated, if I do every job, I can have three or four thousand a month...】

Proprietor Chang even had a flexible mind and placed an order in advance—he didn't want straw mats, he wanted the kind of partitions commonly used in teahouses and restaurants.

There were only five acres of chestnuts; how many could there be after shelling and weighing? Proprietor Qian could eat them all by himself.

Honestly speaking, Proprietor Qian really didn't intend to bring old Wang this time.

And on this side, Song Tan's car couldn't fit Master Qian, his apprentices, and Proprietor Chang, so she had to leave the happy Wang Dashun behind.

【Go up the mountain at three tomorrow morning to knock chestnuts, required to wear a helmet, wear thick clothes, those with experience and strength are preferred, 200/day, 3 people.】

"Mom, are you going to peel chestnuts tomorrow? If you go, I'll sign you up, I'll go pick them."

Don't look at the fact that it's autumn now, the air in the city is dry, and you can still sleep for a month or so at night!

What?!

Just seeing him secretly stuffing two taels of golden tobacco leaves to Proprietor Chang before leaving, one knew that this order was truly planted in the old man's heart!

【I worked overtime until ten last night again, where have I ever slept so late in the village? That's tiring too!】

【That's right, I only get 5,000 a month in that factory.】

Therefore, he was full of confidence at this moment:

"Go, why wouldn't I go, it's 100 a day!"

Wang Dashun nodded: "Don't worry, I definitely won't miss it!"

"My arm is twisted and not better yet, I can't do that job, I can only go pick chestnuts."

How could Proprietor Chang be at ease?

【It's so tiring! Worked for twenty days in a row, every night past ten.】

The only pain was—there were too many things and they were too precious, Proprietor Chang couldn't buy a high-speed rail ticket, so he had to let Song Tan send them to Yuncheng and charter a car!

This straw mat smelled of the fresh fragrance of grass and trees, the color was emerald green, and with some patterns added in the middle, used as a partition for private rooms and booths...

Thinking of this, his hands were shaking.

"It's good that I came back from working away; this is tiring during the day, but the food is good, and I get off work early at night, much more comfortable than working away."

Chestnuts are not fruit after all; if not processed, they won't sell that fast.

【Working overtime is good, only by working overtime can you get money, if you don't work overtime, where would you get money?】

And the curtain size was much smaller, so it wasn't too expensive... You've already spent so much money on renovation, you can't be lacking at the very end, right?

Carrying so many things, the back of the pickup truck was packed full, and even several rolls of straw mats were moved back.

Last time the peaches couldn't be eaten up, it was because the peach yield was high, and it was a full twenty acres of land.

【You calculate the jobs with high wages, 200 a day, it's tiring!】

"Sitting there peeling is definitely more comfortable than picking chestnuts, but the pay is 50 less... Then I'll go pick them, the old Song family's chestnut orchard doesn't have tea trees, it's easy to pick!"

【Don't mention it, I'm on the assembly line, I have to stand all day long... Ouch, my feet are swollen.】

As for how much he liked this Proprietor Chang...

Proprietor Qian almost jumped up: "Proprietor Song, you can't do this! Old Wang and I intended to come over last week, it was you who said the family was busy and the chestnuts weren't ripe yet, that's why we were two days late... How come there's someone cutting in line now?"

【Old Song's family seems to have truly made it; look at that big mountain of his, I'm afraid he'll need people every day later on.】

Proprietor Qian's heart was full of joy, and he was ready to raise his hand to buy the ticket, but then he heard Song Tan change the subject: "However, there is a Proprietor Chang who runs a restaurant business here, and he said he also wants to pack these chestnuts..."

But helplessly, Old Wang was present when packing the peaches, and now he couldn't miss out on even the smallest business. ===== CHAPTER 722 =====
