Chapter 411 The Matter of Killing Fruit
After Guo Jia and the others sprayed the watermelon rind, they became the melancholy prince again.
They couldn't care less about hating Dian Wei for deceiving people.
Guo Jia said anxiously: "My lord, the yield per mu of this melon is top-notch, 2000 catties, unparalleled in the world, but it's not delicious at all, how can I sell it?"
Xun You poked at the temples of his glasses, with an old pedantic appearance, expressing his worries, "Fruits cannot be preserved for a long time, and if they cannot be sold, there will still be a famine."
"Hahaha..." All the men in the village said.
"Eep..." all the women in the village.
"Chacha..." all the village elders.
All laughed loudly.
Guo Jia and the others' faces changed drastically. Could it be that they succeeded in pretending again?
Zhao Yu laughed out loud, patted her thigh, and shouted, "Peel the skin and eat it, no no, cut it up and eat it, cut it up."
Cut it!
Can the skin be eaten?
Guo Jia, these famous ministers, these good generals, all of them have hot faces.
Speaking of which, they marched in a large tent, which was a powerful force in the world.
But now, I can't wait to find a seam in the ground and get in.
Oops
Yuan Tan smiled and said, "Cut it open and taste it, there will be a pleasant surprise."
Dian Wei looked at the melon in his hand.
Xu Chu, who was on the side, punched it with a moderate force, and it cracked open.
The two immediately broke apart, each with half, and took a bite first.
His face became festive, baji baji, the cow gnawed and the horse chewed.
There was definitely nothing wrong this time.
Guo Jia and the others pulled out their swords one after another and cut open on the spot.
After one bite, you will be full of energy, after two bites, you will be sweet, and after three bites, you will cry with joy.
Horrified, shocked, turbulent.
"It's so delicious! I've tasted all kinds of fruits in Liaodong, and nothing can compare with it." Tai Shi said kindly.
"The fruits I ate before are like garbage, tasteless now." Xu Huang said.
"I feel that the skin is also very fragrant and should not be wasted." Zhao Yun has always been relatively frugal.
"You can eat it, it tastes fresh, and it tastes better than pears." Dian Wei immediately said, after all, he was the first to eat it, and it was the most embarrassing, so it would relieve a lot of embarrassment.
Click directly, laughed and said: "It's delicious, mixed with watermelon pulp, it has a special flavor."
click.
click.
Everyone is cracking the watermelon rind.
Looking at all this, Yuan Tan immediately felt that the people of the Three Kingdoms era, even if they were great people and famous people through the ages, were so simple and lovely.
He looked at the watermelon rind in his hand again, and couldn't swallow it.
Zhao Yu signaled to the whole village.
Suddenly, the whole village fell to their knees, even ignorant children were pushed down by adults.
Their direction is Yuan Tan.
Guo Jia and the others also looked in awe. They collected the watermelon, wiped their faces clean, and stepped aside so that Yuan Tan could enjoy this moment to himself.
Even in the hearts of little children, the tall figure is deeply imprinted.
Zhao Yu's incomparably solemn voice echoed, "I am the master of the common people, from generation to generation, life and death follow the eldest son..."
In ancient times, there was an old Qin who was valiant and went to the national calamity together.
Now there is a magician, who follows life and death.
Yuan Tan only needs to raise his arms, and in the direction the golden gun points, Shen Ceerlang will win victory after victory for their commander. The people of Shence follow each other like a rock.
His foundation became extremely deep.
look to the horizon.
Be willful if you want to be willful, and be arrogant if you want to be arrogant.
Who can do anything to him?
Next, there is the issue of sales.
...
Three days later.
Watermelons are coming to town.
It is still the capital of Yecheng.
There are millions of people here.
Large households, rich households, medium households, most cities.
There are also vendors from all over the world.
The fragrance of watermelon immediately brought a touch of elegance to this ancient capital after thousands of years.
"What's this?"
Before entering the city, there were foreign businessmen chasing the carriage. Not to mention the local people.
Zhao Yu and the others are the first batch to sell melons in the city. In the next three days, all the melon farmers in Quzhou,
Will drive into the city.
Zhao Yu smiled without saying a word, arrogantly.
After entering the city, he was immediately surrounded by crowds of curious people and couldn't move.
"What on earth is this?" A foreign businessman who had been chasing him asked again. With his keen insight, he felt that this should be a very good product.
There are many merchants like him around.
"This is called watermelon, a kind of fruit." Zhao Yu said lightly.
What is watermelon?
Human beings have never had any resistance to unseen foods since ancient times.
Zhao Yu immediately got the young people to sing: sell watermelons, sell watermelons, the watermelons here are sweet and sandy, round and big, with a lot of sweet water....
So, cut one on the spot.
Immediately, there was an earth-shattering cry of weeping ghosts and gods.
When you smell it, you will know it is the best fruit.
After a free taste, even more unable to extricate themselves.
It is summer now, and anyone with a little money will eat fruits to cool off.
Immediately someone asked, "How much is a catty?"
"Fifty Wen a catty."
When Zhao Yu mentioned the price, he trembled, it was too expensive, more than five times the price of grain.
The yield per mu is ten times that of grain, isn't it, the income from farming is fifty times higher than before.
OMG. Zhao Yu felt dizzy.
In just a short while, Team Gua was surrounded by thousands of people.
A bit expensive.
people usually think that.
But it can also be seen that this is a rare fruit, and it is reasonable to be expensive.
"I'm from Wang Situ's mansion, give me one." Someone said immediately.
He was immediately ridiculed by everyone.
"San Gong's mansion, do you want one?"
The man looked solemn and solemn, and said indifferently: "You ordinary people don't understand that Wang Situ, the head of all officials, is loyal to the country, and all his salary is donated to build the palace, and now he is still receiving subsistence allowances."
"Hehe, who doesn't know that, if it wasn't for the Eldest Young Master's suggestion, you greedy people would voluntarily give up your salary?"
Someone in the crowd said.
This matter of salary, after a long time, the truth will always be discovered.
Everyone despises.
The man was embarrassed, stopped talking, bought one, and hurried back to present the treasure.
"Haha, Wang Situ's family will just buy one. I am the deacon of Zhen's family. Old man, my family will pay for your car. Send it to my house. You will pay for it once you send it." Someone said proudly.
"I am the deacon of the Chen family in Xuzhou. The head of my family is Biejia Chen Deng from Xuzhou. This time, I came to Yecheng for trade. How long can this fruit be preserved?"
Zhao Yu said: "It's a cool place for more than a month."
"Yueyu, okay, okay. I've wrapped it all up, give it to me right away, and I don't have to go shopping for other things." The deacon of the Chen family waved his hand.
The voice did not fall.
Immediately, another businessman from other places came out, "Are you making a round? Are you qualified to make a round? I'll do it all!"
Immediately, hundreds of local people came out and said angrily: "You make rounds? You can't make rounds. These fruits are so noble, we people in the imperial capital want to eat them!"
Zhao Yu was dumbfounded.
Originally, I wanted a cart just now, five hundred catties, how much it is, I can't figure it out with my fingers, but it has already made more money than I have earned in the past ten years.
Now they are still scrambling to get Baoyuan, how much is this.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the city, they were all sold out within a few words.
Made so much money.
Trembling with excitement.
Zhao Hai and others who followed Zhao Yu also felt weak all over.
After all, Zhao Yu and the others are honest people, and amidst the cries of thousands of locals, they can't be rounded up by others.
Ever since, the situation of retail sales has become even more out of hand.
Anyone who has a little money rushes to buy and taste.
"It's delicious, it's so delicious, what kind of fairy peach, it can't be compared. Eat one, and this life is worth it!"
Someone ate it right away, and walked out while eating.
This allowed the buying frenzy to spread across the city.
...
Shence Mansion.
"My lord, the situation at that time was like this. It disappeared in an instant. Village Chief Zhao and the others are returning now, saying that they will not rest, and they will ship a new batch tomorrow."
Having said this, Er Gouzi wiped off his sweat, and said, "I also bought several large carriages and left."
Yuan Tan looked at the stunned Guo Jia and the others, "Don't think too much, the hot sale of watermelon is what we expected, and you have worked hard during this period. Take the watermelon and go home to eat melon with the family Come on, take a day off."
"Here!" They were all shocked.
Those who are poor and have no trousers can now buy large carriages, and there are still several.
Guo Jia and the others couldn't take it anymore, and they all wanted to resign and grow melons.
People go out.
Xun You pushed up his glasses, "Commander, tell the whole army the news as soon as possible, let them know what kind of life the family is living now, and why they came here."
Zhao Yun was very excited, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, the military advisor is right."
The combat power must have doubled again.
Whoever dares to touch Yuan Tan, these people will definitely come out with white knives and red knives.
After half an hour.
In the back house of Shence Mansion.
Inside the cool bamboo pavilion by the pond.
Yuan Tan's wife Zhen Mi, his prospective wife Cai Yan, and his younger sister Fushou were inside.
There were dozens of servant girls watching from the outside.
The central point, of course, is Yuan Tan.
Yuan Tan is holding a watermelon.
"Do you know what this is?"
"I don't know." All the beauties shook their heads.
Yuan Tan chuckled, finally it was his turn to pretend.
Put it on the stone table, take out a knife, click it, and cut it open.
Suddenly my thinking started to jump, no wonder the game of killing fruit was so popular back then, it was a joy to kill.
It was chirping again, killing many pieces.
"Ah! Killed!" Fu Shou screamed.
"Ah! So much blood!" Zhen Ji screamed with a longer pitch.
"Ah! Fetus! Kill the fetus!" Cai Yan limp on the ground, screaming in a long tone.
Immediately afterwards, all the maidservants joined in the screaming ranks, holding a long tone and screaming.
(⊙o⊙) Yuan Tan. Looking at the knife in his hand that was constantly flowing red water, he was speechless for a long time.
