Chapter 364 The Business of Growing Strawberries
After bringing the killer whale and the king squid to the sea area where the eldest son of Boss Zhou disappeared, Su Jing came back on the golden eagle.
As soon as I got home, I heard news that the eldest brother Su Ruliang was back, and he immediately ran to the uncle's house. Unexpectedly, Su Liang, Su Xiaolin and several other partners have arrived. Su Ruliang is not only Su Jing's eldest brother, but also the eldest brother of the younger generation in the village. Su Jing, Su Liang, Su Xiaolin, etc. Dian followed Su Ruliang everywhere to play, and of course, he had also done several times to steal sausages, bacon, vegetables and fruits for a picnic.
"Ajing, you seem to have grown taller again, you seem to be taller than me." Seeing Su Jing, Su Ruliang smiled.
"Hey, you're 1.78 meters, I'm 1.80 meters, of course I'm taller than you. But why are you back now?" Su Jing asked.
"Big brother has been fired." Su Liang said.
"It should be said that I fired myself." Su Xiaolin said, they came a step ahead and already knew what was going on.
"You guys." Su Ruliang saw that these guys not only didn't comfort him, but also hurt him, so he couldn't help laughing and laughing, and told Su Jing what was going on. It turned out that the factory he was working in had lost money in recent months, and his wages had been delayed for two months. He and a few colleagues went to the factory manager for a theory, and the result was a quarrel. Later, a colleague got angry and started it. , punched the factory manager. Then, they were fired, regardless of whether the last two months' wages were paid back, and it was impossible to work at the factory again.
Su Liang, Su Xiaolin and the others chatted for a while before returning to the fishing grounds, while Su Jing stayed behind. In the evening, the family of five Su Ruliang, Su Zhenhong, Liu Shu, Zhao Mengxiang, Su Yan, and Su Jing gathered around for dinner.
"Brother, what are you going to do in the future?" Su Jing asked while eating.
"Let's take a rest for half a month." Su Ruliang said.
"Why don't you just stop going outside and take care of the seafood shop with us?" Zhao Mengxiang said.
"Yeah, anyway, when there are too many guests, we can't be busy." Liu Shu also said.
"Yeah Dad, don't go out to work, I haven't seen you for a long time." Su Yan stuffed a lot of vegetables in her mouth and couldn't speak clearly.
"I... think about it." Su Ruliang hesitated a little. In fact, he worked outside and worked hard, and his salary was only five or six thousand a month. In the past, it was very good, and it was regarded as the economic foundation of the family. But now, the business of the seafood shop at home is very good, with tens of thousands of income a month, even if it is divided equally, both parents and wife are more than 10,000 yuan, which makes him happy, but also has a sense of pressure.
After all, he was supposed to be the pillar of the family in the first place, and now he has to live with his elderly parents and wife, and it is easy to be said that he is not promising, so there is always a little bit of trouble in my heart. If possible, he hopes to make more money in other areas.
"Big brother, have you ever thought about planting? There are many fields in the nearby villages that are planted casually. Those people don't expect to make money from farming, so as long as you pay a little money, it's easy to take these fields for your own use." Su Jing casually typical.
"I've thought about it, and I'm preparing to investigate." Su Ruliang said.
"I have a new variety of strawberry in my hands. It's not difficult to grow, and its value is more than twice that of ordinary strawberries. Are you interested?" Su Jing smiled and said, in fact, at first, he thought about choosing one from Su Liang and Su Xiaolin. , manage strawberry cultivation. However, since the eldest brother came back after losing his job, and he still has ideas in this regard, it is better to leave this business to the eldest brother.
"More than twice?" Su Ruliang was stunned for a while. Su Zhenhong, Liu Shu, and Zhao Mengxiang also looked at Su Jing in surprise. When did Su Jing come up with a new strawberry product? Zhao Mengxiang suddenly remembered something and asked, "Ajing, that red fox wine is actually a strawberry bar. Is that the new variety of strawberries used?"
"That's right, the red fox wine is so delicious, it's not because of the high brewing skills, but the deliciousness of strawberries." Su Jing nodded.
"So it is." Zhao Mengxiang, Su Zhenhong, and Liu Shu suddenly realized.
"How many people are planting this new strawberry variety now?" Su Ruliang asked.
"Only me and my partner, there is no other. The more important thing is that we need this kind of strawberry very much now. We will harvest as much as you plant." Su Jing smiled.
"You said the partner, who is Wang Zhuowang's boss?" Su Ruliang's eyes lit up.
"That's right." Su Jing nodded.
"Then this business is very worth seeing. You kid is loyal enough, big brother didn't hurt you in vain before." Su Ruliang laughed, even thinking about it with his toes, he knew that this was a good job that Su Jing specially gave him.
"Brother, if you're really interested, let's do it. No matter how much you plant, we'll buy it at twice the market price. However, there are two things you should keep in mind, brother. First, manage what I give you. I will give you the seedlings one day before planting. It is best to finish the planting on the same day, and no one can take away a single one. Second, all the strawberries that have been planted must be sold to Wang Zhuo and me, even if others ask for three times or even four. At five times the price, you can't sell one." Su Jing said.
"No problem." Seeing Su Jing's awe-inspiring expression, Su Ruliang nodded cautiously. Brothers are brothers, they can take care of each other, but in principle, they must not mess around.
"Since you want to do it, let's do it bigger, and use the nearby land as much as possible. If there are not enough people, just ask the name of the nearby village. If you are willing to sell the land, it will be a priority. If you pay a slightly higher salary, you will definitely be able to earn it. It's just that the initial investment is a little higher, if it's not enough, I'll give you 500,000 first." Su Jing said.
"We saved some savings a few years ago, and we made a lot of money from opening a seafood store. Let's use it first. If it's not enough, then use yours," Su Zhenhong said.
"Also." Su Jing nodded, then smiled, "By the way, big brother, when you go to talk with the nearby villagers about expropriating fields and hiring workers, you can say that I invested."
"Hehe, no, don't underestimate my popularity, eldest brother." Su Ruliang smiled confidently, but he was very open in the nearby villages. Besides, as the eldest brother to ask for the help of the younger brother, it would have damaged the majesty of the eldest brother, how could he still borrow the name of the younger brother?
"Then it's up to you." Su Jing smiled, not reluctantly.
That night, Su Ruliang planned what to do, and early the next day, he began to persuade the villagers to give up their fields. As for hiring workers, it's not difficult at all. This is a rural area, and the salary can be hired for two or three thousand months. According to Su Jing's suggestion, it is slightly higher than four thousand yuan, so there are definitely many people rushing to come. So, as long as the field is settled, everything is fine after that.
