Chapter 568 Departure to Niujia Village
Chapter 568 Departure to Niujia Village
Jiang Duoduo pondered in her mind, Niujia Village? Xinxin Orchard? Isn't this the orchard that she opened from her system treasure chest?
No wonder it sounds so familiar!
However, Jiang Duoduo has never visited this orchard.
If Ms. Chen Shuyue hadn't mentioned it, Jiang Duoduo would have forgotten that she had an orchard in Niujia Village.
After all, the other treasure chests contain houses, shops, hotels, etc., and this orchard is indeed inconspicuous.
Jiang Duoduo remembered that the person in charge of the orchard was named Zhang Shuisheng, 48 years old, from Niujia Village, and had been in charge of the orchard for five years.
After Jiang Duoduo opened the treasure chest, Zhang Shuisheng contacted her immediately.
Jiang Duoduo was very busy at that time and really didn't have time to go to Niujia Village to manage an orchard.
Therefore, she let Zhang Shuisheng continue to do what he did before. As for his and the four fruit farmers' wages, Jiang Duoduo would pay them monthly.
However, Zhang Shuisheng had to compile a detailed list of all the orchard's expenses and profits every month. It would be best if he could make a detailed spreadsheet and send it to Jiang Duoduo's email at the end of the month.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Shuisheng said that he only knew how to grow fruit trees and sell fruits. He didn't know how to make any forms, and he didn't know how to use an email address.
He used to keep account books in handwritten form, and his boss would personally go to the orchard to check accounts with him before every quarter.
Jiang Duoduo later handed this matter over to her assistant Su Xuewei, asking her to go to the orchard to reconcile the accounts once at the end of each year, and then give Zhang Shuisheng and several fruit farmers a New Year's red envelope.
She remembered that after deducting various expenses, the annual income of this orchard seemed to be about 30 yuan.
More than 30 yuan is really not a lot of money for Jiang Duoduo now, so until now, she has never been to Xinxin Orchard.
This time it was rare that it was her mother who suggested going, and Jiang Duoduo immediately nodded in agreement.
Although she didn't know where Ms. Chen Shuyue got the news, she said Xinxin Orchard had launched a one-day tour to the farm to pick grapefruits.
Adult tickets are 98 yuan per person, and children under 1.2 meters tall are half price. A simple lunch is included. You can eat as much grapefruit as you want in the orchard, but you can't waste it.
When leaving the orchard, if you need to take the fruit away, you must purchase it at the normal price.
When Chen Shuyue and Jiang Laidi heard that lunch was included and they could eat all they wanted in the orchard, they thought the 98 yuan per person deal was a good deal. And since children only got half price, it was an even better deal.
In fact, Jiang Duoduo knows the marketing tactics of these orchards.
Their best batch of grapefruits had actually already been picked and sold to wholesalers.
The remaining good grapefruits are used for parent-child picking tours. After ten days or half a month of picking, the good grapefruits will be almost used up.
For the remaining crooked and rotten melons and dates, we will organize an activity where you can enter the orchard and eat as much as you want for 10 yuan per person.
When everyone hears that they can enter the orchard and eat as much grapefruit as they want for only 10 yuan, they will definitely come to join in the fun, so that the orchard can make a lot of money in the end.
Although they knew it was a marketing trick, they were not cheated if they went there at this time. At least there were good grapefruits in the orchard.
Besides, Xinxin Orchard is his own!
Jiang Duoduo planned not to tell her mother and sisters yet, and wait until they got to the orchard to tell them and give everyone a surprise.
After Jiang Duoduo and her sisters agreed, Chen Shuyue sent a message to relatives and friends, asking Chen Shufang if she wanted to go together.
Jiang Duoduo then realized that it was her aunt who told her mother about the fruit picking trip to Xinxin Orchard.
That’s right, my aunt is from Niujia Village, so she would definitely know if there were any activities at Xinxin Orchard!
Jiang Duoduo feels that her brain has been a little crazy recently. She wonders if it’s because she stayed up too late?
I used to stay up late a lot, too! I'd go to bed at 2 a.m. every day, but now my brain has become so slow after a few days of staying up late.
Sure enough, 25 years old is a watershed. Once a person is over 25, all aspects of his body will slowly begin to decline.
That’s not right…I’m only 25 after the Chinese New Year!
Hahahaha...it's not even 25 yet, don't panic!
Just as Jiang Duoduo was talking to herself with her cell phone.
Aunt Chen Shufang said in the group that she happens to have a day off tomorrow, so why not make the day now? Let’s go early tomorrow morning.
Chen Shuyue and her daughters all said it was no problem, and explained that tomorrow was Sunday, so they could take the children there and have fun all day.
Jiang Duoduo also quickly sent an OK expression behind everyone.
Then everyone discussed in the group what to wear tomorrow, what delicious snacks to bring, and who has a car to give someone a ride.
Jiang Duoduo saw that this group of relatives and friends, where usually only her mother and aunt chatted about family matters, suddenly became as lively as a vegetable market. She felt that adults are sometimes just like children and have a genuine excitement about going out to play!
Even my aunt, who used to be silent, spoke up and said that she also wanted to grow wings and fly over to play with everyone.
Wu Xiaozhu: Ahhhhh… I want to go too… No… I have to masturbate over here overnight!
Jiang Duoduo: Come on, I’ll reimburse your travel expenses!
……
The next morning, Jiang Duoduo was woken up early by Ms. Chen Shuyue to have breakfast, and then the two drove directly to Niujia Village from Sunset Villa.
The eldest and the fourth child now have cars and driver's licenses, so Jiang Duoduo doesn't need to go out of her way to pick them up.
The second brother and Chen Shufang's family all live in Niujia Village. They just need to wait for Jiang Duoduo and the others to arrive in Niujia Village and then go to Xinxin Orchard together.
The third sister lived in the next-door Biwan Village, and it only took her family about twenty minutes to drive there. The people who lived the farthest away were Jiang Duoduo and others who lived in J City, so they all got up earlier than the chickens.
"Duoduo, am I driving fairly steadily?"
Chen Shuyue just got her driver's license and is still feeling very new about driving.
She would drive the car to Niu's house, but she had already made arrangements with Jiang Duoduo early on.
"Hmm...very stable! So stable that I'm almost drowsy! Mom, keep driving. I want to lie down and take a nap!"
Jiang Duoduo suddenly dozed off as she was talking, and then she rolled down the passenger seat, intending to catch up on some sleep on the way.
"No... Duoduo, don't lie down! This is the first time Mom has driven such a long distance, are you really confident that you can just go to sleep like this?"
After Chen Shuyue got her driver's license, her daily driving distance was very short, just driving from Sunset Villa to Xiyan Breakfast Shop in the northern suburbs. This was the first time she drove such a long distance like today.
Jiang Duoduo was sitting next to her and she was driving steadily. Now that Jiang Duoduo wanted to lie down and sleep, Chen Shuyue felt a little uneasy.
"Ms. Chen Shuyue, I'm confident in your driving skills. You're careful and timid, and you drove slowly and steadily the entire way. Perfect!"
Jiang Duoduo thought that if her elder sister was driving, she would not dare to sleep!
The new car she bought has been taken to the 4S shop for repairs several times, either being bumped here or scratched there.
Apart from being slow, there is nothing wrong with my mother's driving. She is very safe.
