Chapter 41
After selecting all the things, the final calculation came to twenty-one and thirty cents, of which the table and chairs accounted for thirteen yuan. The other bits and pieces were very cheap. The other party enthusiastically helped to move them into the car. Zhao Zhenhua and one of them
We knew each other and even said a few words.
Only then did Song Hongguo find out that the man who greeted her turned out to be the captain of the Xiangyang Brigade, named Sheng Zhongxin. He rarely followed him to the stall, so today was just a coincidence.
When I was about to leave, the system suddenly appeared again, "Host, the yard of the old house is so big, you just plant vegetables and flowers?"
"Didn't I buy a chicken and a goose?"
"...Fruit trees, you can also plant fruit trees, especially outside the courtyard wall. The land is idle. Plant a circle of fruit trees around it. When autumn comes, there will be a lot of fruits. Think about it, isn't it beautiful?"
Song Hongguo was moved. During the large-scale steel smelting a few years ago, the members not only handed over the iron products at home, but also cut down a lot of trees in the team, leaving a lot of space around the old house. She also thought about planting seeds.
What's good, the fruit trees look good too.
And the current policy seems to encourage everyone to use the front and rear of their house to grow things, as long as they don't sell it.
So, she asked Sheng Zhongxin again, "Are there many fruit trees in your mountains?"
Sheng Zhongxin had also found out from Zhao Zhenhua that she was from the Tomato Brigade and worked in the aluminum factory hospital. He couldn't help but show a bit of respect when he spoke to her, "There are a lot of fruit trees, what do you want?"
Song Hongguo thought for a while. Now there are persimmon trees and pomegranate trees in the front yard, jujube trees, peach trees and apricot trees in the backyard. There is an old pear tree outside the fence. After all, there are actually a lot of varieties of fruit trees. "Apple
Are there any trees?”
"Yes, there are trees that are three to five years old, as well as those that are seven or eight years old. If you move them over, they will still bear fruit in the same year."
"What breed?"
"Guoguang, there is also a kind of Huang Yuanshuai, which is sweet and floury. Children like it most. Guoguang is a bit sour, but crispy, and there are some good ones."
"Where's the hawthorn tree?"
"Yes, that one is more sour than Guoguang."
Song Hongguo sighed inwardly after hearing this. People these days are so simple. Who sells things without exaggerating the advantages and avoiding the shortcomings? But look at it now...
The more honest the person is, the more she wants to buy. Maybe this is a trick.
"Are there any grapes?"
Sheng Zhongxin paused for a moment and then said, "...Yes, we are still young. How many trees do you want?"
"You have to be able to support one frame, right? Ten trees?"
Sheng Zhongxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "There are ten trees, why do you still want to eat them?"
"What other rare fruit trees are there in your mountains?" Song Hongguo asked.
"Pear trees, pomegranates, persimmons, jujube trees, peaches, apricots,..."
Song Hongguo shook her head, "I have them all planted in my yard, are there any others?"
"Cherrys and figs, do you have any at home?"
Song Hongguo's eyes lit up, "Do you still have cherries in the mountains? That's great!"
In her previous life, her three favorite fruits, besides watermelon and pineapple, were cherries.
Sheng Zhongxin smiled implicitly, "There are everything in the mountains, and there is also a kind of fruit tree called papaya. It doesn't taste good, but it smells delicious. If you put one in the house, it will smell good for several months."
Song Hongguo became more and more excited after hearing this. She knew what kind of papaya he was talking about. It was different from the kind in the south. This kind was called smooth-skinned papaya. It was planted in large quantities in some places in later generations and was mainly used to extract some of the ingredients in papaya.
It can be used to make essence and papaya wine, which has certain health effects.
She just wanted to smell the fragrance.
The two chatted for a long time, and finally decided on the type and quantity of fruit trees. In terms of price, Sheng Zhongxin was very honest. After all, they were all from the mountains. They cost her a total of ten yuan, and he was also responsible for helping her transport them to her home.
Plant well.
