    "Tomorrow when we return home, Ah Chuan and I will go see if there is any candy for sale. Then we will buy some and make jam." Chen Xiayue said with a smile.

    Anyway, pimento, like pears, is not easy to preserve in this era without refrigerators, so it is better to make jam.

    While the Zhang family was busy dividing the fruits and making dinner, the rest of the village went up the mountain with the captain and the others to pick fruits in the Banana Valley.

    ¡°All the young and strong people in the village went up the mountain. Women and children were not allowed to go up the mountain together when it was getting dark. A group of men went up the mountain one by one carrying bamboo baskets about the same size as Zhang Chengchuan¡¯s just now.

    "Achuan said there are still a lot of these fruits, but I don't know how many are left."

    "Achuan said it is as big as two acres of land, and he doesn't know how much fruit it can bear."

    "Achuan said it still weighs several thousand kilograms."

    "So many fruits?"

    "The fruit is very delicious. Ah Chuan really did a good thing this time."

    Along the way, these men were discussing Guozi, and of course they talked about Zhang Chengchuan. Most men of the same age as Zhang Chengchuan envied him.

    Zhang Chengchuan is not only enviable for being able to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law in the city, but also the care given to him by his eldest brother and his eldest sister is the envy of many people in the village.

    But even though Zhang Chengchuan doesn¡¯t have a good reputation and is not a hard-working person, he is still very popular.  His bad reputation is that he likes to be lazy, like to be lazy, etc. Of course, the most bad reputation is that he relies on his brothers and sisters to support him.

    ¡°But Zhang Chengchuan himself has a very good personality, and young people of similar age to him in the village like to play with him.

    Everyone was talking and laughing along the way, and soon they reached the cliff of Banana Valley, and then their eyes widened when they saw the fragrant fruit.

    "Oh my god, are there too many fruits?" One of the young people in his twenties was shocked when he saw the branches full of fragrant fruits.

    "Are these all? There are too many, right?" Another young man in his teens also asked in surprise. He ran under the fragrant fruit vine, picked a ripe one, rubbed it and took a bite. He was immediately attracted by the sweetness.  The taste was captured.

    ¡°This fruit is so delicious.¡± The teenage boy said with a happy face.

    Others also came over and each picked one and ate it. While they were eating, they looked at the fragrant fruits on the branches and were very excited.

    "Captain, should we pick these fruits ourselves and eat them, or sell them? We can't finish all these fruits, right?"

    "Captain, if you want to sell it, can you sell it to a food factory in the county? This fruit is too delicious."

    "team leader¡­¡­"

    A group of people were very excited because the yield of xiangguo was very high. These people also discovered that not all xiangguo fruits ripened at the same time. After the mature fruits, there were some green unripe fruits, and even some that had just grown.  The fruit that comes out.

    Of course, they also saw some white and yellow flowers on these vines. They are still blooming at this time, which means that the fruiting period has not passed so quickly.

    "Pick it back first." The captain was very satisfied when he saw so many fruits. Everyone was poor at this time. Now with the income from this kind of fruit, their village should be able to make a fortune.

    After the captain spoke, everyone picked the fruits neatly while nibbling on the fragrant fruits. They all automatically figured out which ones were edible and which ones were not yet ripe, so everyone picked them very quickly.

    Soon the bamboo baskets brought by everyone were filled. The captain of the first baskets to be filled decided to let some people carry them back first, while the rest continued to pick fruits.

    In this way, it took several hours, and it was already completely dark. Everyone was still picking fruits with torches. Finally, it was almost done before we went home together.

    We didn¡¯t pick all the ripe fruits, and there were about one or two hundred kilograms of ripe fruits left for the animals in the mountains to eat.

    And those fruits that are not yet ripe should be almost ripe after a while. The captain and the people in the village know what to do.

    After all, they are all farmers. Although they don¡¯t know ¡°sustainable development¡±, they still know the basic principles.

    Because we planned to keep these vines and let the unripe fruits on the vines continue to grow, everyone was very careful when picking the fruits and did not tear off the vines too much.

    The Yunhe Brigade that night isIt was really lively, especially the children in the village, who were very happy because there were many, many fruits.

    The captain and the accountant, Zhang Deping and the people in the village calculated it together and found that the fruits picked weighed about 4,000 to 5,000 kilograms.

    "Five thousand kilograms of fruit? Is that a lot?"

    "I heard that these fruits are only as much as two acres of land, but they can pick up five thousand kilograms of fruits."

    "Wow, how much can you sell for so many fruits?"

    "It's a few hundred yuan anyway, right?"

    "Isn't this fruit delicious? Such a delicious fruit should be able to be sold at a high price."

    People in the village are talking a lot, and they all have high hopes for these fruits, hoping to make money from so many fruits.

    After the team leader and Zhang Deping counted the weight of all the fruits they picked, they said to the villagers, "Fruits belong to the collective and must be kept and sold for money. But we can't treat everyone badly. After all, they were picked by everyone. We can't all eat them."  I haven¡¯t tasted it.¡±

    ¡°In this way, a family can take twenty or thirty fruits back to eat at home, and the rest have to be kept and sold.¡± After all, these fruits are grown in the mountains themselves, so there is no cost and there is no need to worry about losing money if they are eaten by the villagers.

    "Really, Captain? Can we take the fruit home and eat it ourselves?"

    "Of course you can. But the fruits have to be kept for sale, so each family can only take twenty or thirty fruits."

    "No problem, captain."

    "One more thing, keep the money from selling these fruits, and then divide the money at the end of the year. So we divide the money according to work points. Ah Chuan discovered the fruits, so he can get some work points."

    Because this fruit was discovered by Zhang Chengchuan, even if he did not follow the villagers to pick it later, it would still be counted as his work points, but not as many as those who went to the mountains to pick it.

    Zhang Chengchuan has no objection. After all, he doesn¡¯t rely on these work points to survive. Being able to get work points is already very good.

    Others didn¡¯t have any objections either. After all, Zhang Chengchuan¡¯s work points were really not many, and no one thought it was unfair for the captain to do this.

    Everyone happily divided twenty or thirty fruits and went home. After Zhang Chengchuan and others calculated all the weight of the fruits, they closed the warehouse and left.

    Of course, there are too many fruits. Although they are not food, they are still very important. The captain arranged for a few young people to guard the warehouse.

    It is impossible for Zhang Chengchuan to stay and guard the warehouse. How could he be such a lazy person?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
