Chapter 220

Three hundred?

Zhong Ruyi thought that he wanted a lot, but she didn't expect that he wanted so much, and she didn't react for a moment.

She hesitated. "The watermelon can only be stored for 20 days at most. If it's in a few nearby counties, it's not a problem. But if it's far away, I'm afraid it will rot on the road."

Butler Fang laughed and said, "It's OK. We have a worker who specializes in making ice in our house. We can just put the ice and watermelon together when the time comes."

Put ice?

Won't it melt quickly in such hot weather?

But since he said so, they must have their own set of methods. There is no point in asking more questions.

"Three hundred melons isn't going to cut it, how about two hundred?"

"Two hundred and five!"

"Then let's say three hundred! Two hundred and fifty is too low!"

When the deal was finally made, Butler Fang was still puzzled, "Didn't you say you didn't grow much? How come you can get three hundred a day?"

Zhong Ruyi remained calm and said, "Oh, I have seeds in other places too. What I'm showing you now is just a part of them."

In fact, more of it is in the place you can't see, that is, her space. Not only the watermelon, but any thing in it that you take out might be snatched up by you.

Butler Fang just nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Looking at the young man who was farther away eating a watermelon, he felt a little ashamed.

He smiled at Zhong Ruyi embarrassedly, "This is the second young master of our family. He has been following me everywhere recently."

Fang Erlang was eating a watermelon with great relish, feeling that he had never eaten such a delicious watermelon before.

The water melons I bought at home before are so different from the water melons here.

He almost doesn't recognize water melon anymore!

My mother, my grandmother, my jacket, my coat!

What kind of melons did I eat before?!

When Zhong Ruyi and the other person approached, they heard him mumbling.

Butler Fang stepped forward, slightly bent over, and said, "Second Young Master, let's go. Now that the business is settled, let's go back."

He groaned, looking very reluctant to leave, "Are you going back now? Don't you want to take a closer look?"

Butler Fang wiped the sweat from his forehead. What's so good about this? The melon is growing in this field. Are you worried that it will run away?

Zhong Ruyi smiled politely and said politely, "Why don't you come to my house and have a seat?"

......

In the yard, Fang Erlang was marveling at the grape vines that had already grown tender leaves. "I know this. I saw it when I went to Nanzhou with my father. I think it was called grape? Is that right?" He looked at Zhong Ruyi eagerly.

Zhong Ruyi smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's grapes. I asked someone to help me bring them back from outside. I didn't expect them to grow so well."

Butler Fang really wanted to pull his young master into the carriage and leave. He just said that he wanted to go back, but when he turned around, the two of them were sitting in the yard of the Zhong family.

Cuicui sat next to Liu Yu Niang and whispered to her second aunt, "Second aunt, this person looks a little silly."

He has never stopped since he came in, either touching here or looking there.

He is even more active than Tiedan! Cuicui thought.

Tiedan is sitting quietly now because there are strangers in his house.

He didn't even think about eating the watermelon and apples that Li Guihua had cut and brought out to entertain the guests. He was just busy looking at people.

Fang Erlang looked at the furnishings in the yard before walking to the table and sitting down. When he saw the watermelon on the table, he was no longer as interested as he was at the beginning. Instead, he was attracted by the apples.

He picked up a piece and asked, "What kind of fruit is this?"

These are the apples that Zhong Ruyi took out from the space. She took out quite a few and asked her second sister-in-law to eat two a day, which would be good for the child.

There is also an apple tree in the yard, but it is not yet in season to bear fruit.

She didn't want to say there was one in the yard, as it would be difficult to explain why they could eat apples before the one in the yard grew.

"This is an apple. Try it. It's sweet and sour."

Fang Erlang took a bite, and his eyes immediately lit up with a burning light, "It's crispy and sweet! So fragrant!"

After finishing the piece in his hand, he went to the table to get another one. Butler Fang felt bad. The mansion had always had food and clothes for the second young master, right? Why did he look so ignorant?

Finally, when he took a piece and put it into his mouth, he finally understood the Second Young Master.

He declared it the best fruit he had ever tasted!

From then on, this apple became his second favorite fruit, and the remaining one was the water melon from Xinghua Village.

Before leaving, Zhong Ruyi gave them a basket of apples and two watermelons, and with a wave of her hand, she finally saw Fang Erlang off.

He really didn't expect that there would be such a noisy person in the world. From the moment he entered the yard, he was either eating or talking, and he couldn't stop for a moment.

Zhong Ruyi felt as if there were suddenly a hundred ducks in the yard, quacking incessantly, making people feel annoyed.

The second sister-in-law was so annoyed by the noise that she said she felt dizzy and went back to her room.

She also wanted to leave, but when she saw her eldest brother's pleading eyes, she couldn't move. She could only listen to his chatter with her eldest brother and his wife.

But what he said was not useless nonsense.

According to him, there are a lot of fruits in Nanzhou, and I would like to go and see them if I have the chance.

Just after lunch, Zhong Ruyi hurried to the town. Her eldest brother took her there.

She had already made an agreement with Butler Fang to ask him to send someone to the Anning Street store to buy watermelons every day.

All you have to do is move the watermelons in the space to the yard of the convenience store.

But this is not a long-term solution. No one has seen anyone delivering goods to her, and sooner or later someone will become suspicious.

Fortunately, the watermelons in the field will be gone in ten days or so, so there will be more people planting watermelons next year.

At that time, I can buy a small yard in the town, which can not only be used for living but also for storing things, as long as it can be concealed from others.

This was the first time that the Fang family cooperated with Zhong Ruyi, so they sent the most capable butler of Mr. Fang to discuss business.

Even when the workers came to pick up the watermelons the next day, Butler Fang was there. After looking at the watermelons being loaded onto the carriage one by one, Butler Fang showed a look of satisfaction.

These melons are bigger than the ones I saw in the field yesterday. Miss Zhong just cut one for the workers who were moving the watermelons.

He took a look at it and found that the flesh was rosy red and had a faint fruity fragrance.

Such a melon will surely be popular wherever it goes.

The only pity is that the storage time is a bit short. If it can be stored for a longer time, the Fang family can expand this business to foreign countries!

Let them see that you foreigners are not the only ones who can grow delicious melons! We, a small village in Dazhao, can do it too!

He happily waved to Zhong Ruyi who was standing at the door, "Miss Zhong, tomorrow another housekeeper from our house will come. I will explain to him the precautions. Thank you very much today!"

Zhong Ruyi nodded and watched the carriages rattle away.
