Passing through Yiling City, the train bound for Xinjiang set off.

The company bought a soft sleeper for Cao Zhen. From this point of view, it really did not treat him badly.

After stuffing the two suitcases under the sleeper and putting them away, Cao Zhen untied the plastic bag containing the apples. His mouth was light and he wanted to smoke a cigarette. However, when he saw the no-smoking warning sign posted on the carriage, Cao Zhen did not Didn't ask for trouble.

When traveling alone, first ensure that you can reach Xinjiang smoothly.

His eyes fell on the apples in the plastic bag. Cao Zhen took one out, went to the sink next to him to wash it, and started to nibble on the apples with water.

After taking two bites, he stopped and looked at the apple with the pulp still in his mouth, muttering vaguely: "Fuck, this apple is so sweet and delicious."

He took two more bites, and then he noticed that the deeper the pulp went in, the brighter the color.

Thinking that there were still a lot of apples in the suitcase, he felt that he really didn't have to worry about food this time on the trip. Cao Shujie was right, so he would just eat them.

While he was eating, another person came into his box.

He looks a little chubby, but he is young, under 35, and he is holding a black canvas bag in his hand.

After he came in, he nodded and smiled at Cao Zhen who was eating an apple. Then he walked to the soft bed opposite Cao Zhen and put his bag on the ground. He breathed in subconsciously a few times and heard a crunching sound in his ears. Turning around, his eyes fell on the apple in Cao Zhen's hand.

Seeing Cao Zhen eating enthusiastically, he asked sheepishly: "Brother, excuse me, where did you buy the apple you are eating?"

Cao Zhen was stunned. He looked at the person opposite, then pointed to the apple in his hand: "Is that what you're asking?"

"Yes." Zuo Le, who was slightly fatter, nodded: "I can smell the fruity aroma of your apple, and the sound of you eating the apple is also very crisp. Judging from the color of the flesh, the sugar content should be very high, and the appearance is also very beautiful. This apple is really a good variety.”

"Oh, this eldest brother is still an expert." Cao Zhen shook his head. He did not feel embarrassed and said: "I don't understand what you are talking about. This apple was given to me by my brother. He is a seed Fruity.”

After saying that, Cao Zhen picked out the largest and best-looking apple from the bag next to him and handed it to Zuo Le: "Brother, please try it. This is the apple grown by my brother."

"Oh, this is so embarrassing." Zuo Le waved his hand and refused twice, and finally Cao Zhen forced it into his hand.

"Then I'm welcome." Zuo Le took the apple. He smiled brightly and was very satisfied, and then said: "My name is Zuo Le, and I am a fruit seller who travels around."

As he spoke, Zuo Le bent down to open his bag, took out a few kiwis and apples, pushed them to Cao Zhen, and said, "This is a sample I bought from many places. I think it tastes pretty good. I'm going to prepare it." Come and harvest next year, brother, you can try it too."

While introducing it to Cao Zhen, he first peeled a soft kiwi fruit, peeled off the skin and swallowed it in one gulp: "It's very sweet, try it."

Then he took another apple, rubbed it on his body, and started eating it.

This behavior also tells Cao Zhen that there is nothing wrong with his fruits.

After all, trains are a bit chaotic these days. There are countless people who cut their pants with razor blades and steal cell phones, wallets, valuables in suitcases, and other things.

Cao Zhen also understood this truth. Looking at his eyes, he felt that Zuo Le did not look like the kind of person who played tricks.

He took a kiwi fruit and looked around it before saying, "Brother Zuo, my surname is Cao. Are you a fruit harvester?"

Zuo Le nodded: "Yes, I travel all year round, mainly collecting high-quality fruits."

This time Cao Zhen understood. He peeled off the skin of the kiwi fruit in his hand, took a bite of the slightly yellow-green flesh and tasted it slowly. Then he said: "Brother Zuo, I have seen kiwi fruits that are bigger and sweeter than yours." .”

"Oh, where is it?" Zuo Le was interested.

Then I heard Cao Zhen say: "My friend planted it, but all the kiwis over there have been picked, and now there are only two acres of apples left that have not yet grown."

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the apple he just handed to Zuo Le and said, "The apple I just ate was planted by my friend and was just ready to be planted on the tree."

"He hasn't gotten off the tree yet?" Zuo Le felt something was wrong.

Cao Zhen nodded: "This one grows naturally, without a bag, and matures more slowly."

——

Zuo Le took the apple and took a bite. The expression on his face changed slightly the next moment. Then after taking two more bites, he said, "This apple is indeed delicious. Why is it so sweet."

As he spoke, he looked at Cao Zhen and asked him: "Brother Cao, where does your friend grow fruit? Can you give me the address?"

"I don't care, but it's useless if you go. He only has two acres of apples left, and a dozen of them would weigh several thousand kilograms."

"That's okay, I'll go over and talk to him." Zuo Le said.

Cao Zhen thought for a moment and gave Zuo Le the contact information of Cao Shujie and the address of his orchard.

Then in front of Zuo Le, he called Cao Shujie: "Shujie, I met a friend on the train. He specializes in collecting high-quality fruits. Now they are interested in your apples. Do you want to sell them?"

"I only have a few thousand kilograms of apples here, and I don't plan to ship them all." Cao Shujie said on the phone.

Cao Zhen didn't want to listen to what he said. He said, "I'll give your phone number to this friend, and you can talk about the rest. I won't care. Bye."

After hanging up the phone, he turned the phone outside, let Zuo Le take a look, and said, "Look, he has such a bad temper, and why is there anything wrong with taking out food? It seems like the food he grows is delicious?"

Zuo Le didn't care about this, he knew that some capable people did have a temper.

Thinking of another thing, Zuo Le asked: "Brother Cao, did you just say that your friend picked and sold all his kiwis?"

"Yes, the picking price is 28 yuan per pound, and others are willing to go to him. Brother Zuo, are you crazy about these people? They really treat money as waste paper." Cao Zhen complained.

But Zuo Le was heartbroken when he heard this. His eyebrows knitted together and he suddenly asked: "Brother Cao, did you just say how much does the kiwi fruit picking price at your friend's place cost per kilogram?"

"For 28 yuan, my cousin picked 40 kilograms in two times. I just can't understand it," Cao Zhen said.

It was only later that he found out that his cousin had bought so many.

Fortunately, Cao Shujie also gave his cousin the biggest discount.

"This price is not the most expensive." Zuo Le shook his head and said.

"Brother Cao, there are too many things in this world that look outrageous to you."

When Cao Zhen heard what he said, he immediately became quiet and listened to what Zuo Le shared with him.

Then I heard Zuo Le say: "I have traveled all over the country looking for high-quality fruits for so many years, and I have seen prices more outrageous than this."

Zuo Le stretched out five fingers and asked: "Brother Cao, have you ever heard of kiwi fruit selling for 50 yuan per pound?"

"I have also been to a place where the kiwis are sold for 10 yuan each, but there are still many people rushing to buy them."

Before Cao Zhen could utter an exclamation, Zuo Le continued: "But this is not the most outrageous thing. I remember meeting a kiwi fruit exporter who sold a variety of kiwi fruit for 120 yuan per pound."

"If the fruit is really delicious, many people will be willing to pay for it." Zuo Le sighed: "But it is a pity that many people in today's society are too impetuous and cannot steady themselves and grow good fruits in a down-to-earth manner."

These words gave Cao Zhen a different view of Zuo Le. The more the two chatted, the more involved they became. Only then did Cao Zhen realize that Zuo Le was going to Xinjiang to see a new apple that had just appeared on the market. He wanted to see it Can you get a batch of high-quality goods back from there?

Still holding the apple that Cao Zhen gave him just now, Zuo Le continued to eat after taking a few bites, but the more he ate, the more he felt something was wrong.

The apple Cao Zhen gave him was very sweet in itself, but the more you ate into it, the sweeter it became and it was still very watery.

Zuo Le took a big bite and looked at the apple carefully. Only then did he realize that the closer to the core of the fruit, the surrounding flesh showed an almost transparent bright yellow color, and this circle of different colors was a An irregular round shape.

He remembered some sayings and was stunned at that time: "Brother Cao, the apple you gave me is a new variety of rock candy heart apple?"

"Uh, what about the rock candy heart apple? This is the first time I heard you talk about it today." Cao Zhen felt confused.

As for what kind of variety Cao Shujie planted, Cao Zhen really couldn't tell.

But he knew that these apple trees were inherited from Uncle Jianguo when he was a child, and he had never heard that Uncle Jianguo had planted new apple trees.

Zuo Le found it incredible. He asked in surprise: "Brother Cao, you don't even know?"

"What do I know?" Cao Zhen was even more confused.

Then I heard Zuo Le say: "This kind of apple is very high in sugar, but the one grown by your friend is still different from some of the rumors I heard."

Having said this, Zuo Le thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, I can't go to Xinjiang today. I have to get off at the station in front and visit your friend first."

Cao Zhen never expected that someone would be so persistent. He said, "Brother Zuo, there's no need. My friend is in Caojiazhuang. It'll be fine if you go again in the future."

"That won't work. You called your friend just now. He also said that these apples may not be sold out any time. If I go there late, I won't even be able to get them. I won't be able to escape to Xinjiang. I You have to go to your friend's place first and then talk." Zuo Le said.

Zuo Le has a strong execution ability and does what he says. Half an hour later, when the train arrived at the next station, he got off the train directly with his bag.

When passing by the window of Cao Zhen's soft sleeper, he waved goodbye to Cao Zhen.

"Fuck!"

Cao Zhen felt like he had seen a ghost at this moment. No matter how well-informed he was, he never expected to meet such a person on the way to Xinjiang.

He thought about not calling Cao Shujie and letting him go to hell.

Thinking of this, Cao Zheng was lying on the soft sleeper, touched another apple, and gnawed it. After chewing half of it, he put the pulp in front of his eyes and looked carefully at the bright yellow circle in the middle. He murmured in his heart. : "Old Zuo, I really didn't notice it. The color is so beautiful. Did that dog grow ginseng fruit?"

After returning from Yiling City, Cao Shujie drove to the Five-Star Department Store in Pingyuan County to pick up his wife and children, and then drove towards Caojiazhuang.

On the way, Cheng Xiaolin also asked him about sending Cao Zhen to the train station.

Cao Shujie said: "I don't know how long it will take for this grandson to come back..."

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Xiaolin said: "I didn't say anything else, you don't need to say so much."

"Husband, to be honest, I'm a little envious of you for having such a good friend." Cheng Xiaolin's eyes showed envy.

"Don't you also have two very close best friends?" Cao Shujie said.

His wife often calls her two best friends.

But when Cheng Xiaolin heard her husband mention this matter, she said: "We are too far away. I just call and chat occasionally. As time goes by, the contact becomes less and less."

"Hey, wife, you are pretty good. You talk in one way." Cao Shujie praised her and diverted her attention.

Mengmeng was always very uneasy in the back seat, as if there were springs on her butt. She just moved to this side and lay down, and soon she fell on her mother's lap again.

The journey back to Caojiazhuang was smooth. As soon as the car stopped at the gate, Cao Shujie saw his mother coming out of the house.

"Mengmeng, are you back?" Wang Yuelan called.

Mengmeng started calling "grandma" loudly in the car. When Wang Yuelan opened the back door for her, Mengmeng jumped directly from the car into her grandma's arms: "Grandma, I miss you so much."

"You little devil, I don't believe it!" Wang Yuelan said this, but the smile on her face was bright.

Cheng Xiaolin opened the door from the other side and came down. Looking at her daughter's performance, she couldn't help but want to laugh. This girl was too shrewd. Despite her young age, she had learned how to talk to people and tell ghosts. Grandpa and grandma coaxed her into treating her like a treasure.

"Mom, have you been waiting at home?" Cao Shujie asked.

Wang Yuelan nodded: "I have been waiting for you to come back since you left in the morning."

"I told you it's okay." Cao Shujie muttered, but after being glared at by his wife, he shut up.

He said: "Mom, you guys wait at home while I go to the orchard on the mountain to see the construction progress."

"Go ahead." Wang Yuelan's thoughts were all on her granddaughter and she didn't care about her son at all.

Cao Shujie was helpless. He asked his mother: "Mom, has my sister called?"

"I beat her. She said she wouldn't be back during the National Day, so she was studying in school, saying she was going to take the postgraduate entrance examination..."

"Graduate student." Cao Shujie said.

Wang Yuelan said without looking back: "Yes, yes, I am studying monks."

"Why is Fangfang working so hard now?" Cao Shujie couldn't understand. He wondered if his sister was emotionally stimulated?

But that's not right, he never heard his sister talk about finding a partner.

"oh oh"

"Oh woo!"

When Daha and Erha saw that Cao Shujie was about to go out again, the two dog brothers quickly barked a few times to attract Cao Shujie's attention. When they saw Cao Shujie turning around, they barked even more vigorously.

Cao Shujie also asked them: "You two want to go out too?"

Not to mention the two of them, even the two little German shepherds want to go out. Who likes to be locked at home all the time!
