Chapter 34 What kind of dog looks like that?!
Life is getting better.
Since signing the contract with the large supermarket, the farm's income has stabilized, ushering in a period of rapid development.
We hired two new employees, named Wang Hai and Zhao Shan.
They were all selected by Xu Ran after the interviews.
Both of them have good personalities, and from chatting, I felt they were also good people.
Xu Ran does have some talent in this area.
Wang Hai is from Northeast China. His parents work in the city. He moved here after high school and has been living here ever since.
Northeasterners are known for their straightforward and honest character. Although there are some unscrupulous businessmen among them, most are still quite good.
Zhao Shan comes from a village in the north of the city, and he is a very kind person.
Moreover, Zhao Shan doesn't usually go home. He says that if he goes back to the village, all he'll hear is gossip, and he feels uncomfortable at home, so he stays at the farm and only goes back occasionally.
It feels better to have someone else watching over the farm at night.
There are currently many single-story houses on the farm, and with some tidying up, everyone can move in.
If we make a lot of money in the future, we will definitely build employee dormitories, canteens, and offices.
Just then, the system released new tasks on a regular basis.
[Start the mission: Plant crops!]
[Task Description: Complete the planting of crops and ensure their survival.]
[Task Progress: 0/1000]
[Quest Reward: Random Skill *1]
Every time Xu Ran saw the task information on the panel, she felt a sense of satisfaction.
The tasks are all too easy.
It was something that came easily to me.
The reward is completely free.
The sense of accomplishment after completing a task is truly intoxicating.
Just as the greenhouse was completed and tomatoes were to be planted, Xu Ran instructed her employees to process the tomato seeds.
Tomato seeds are the small seeds you find after cutting open a tomato. Put these seeds in a bowl, dry them in the sun, and then you can plant them.
The tomatoes for which the seeds were provided were all carefully selected by Xu Ran.
The process was very easy.
The employees work together.
Cola, Sprite, Little Grey, and Little Yellow were all lying down nearby watching.
Wang Hai saw Little Gray and thought the little Border Collie was adorable, so he called out:
"Little Grey, come here."
As soon as he shouted that, Li Wu looked over with a hint of schadenfreude.
Xiao Hui glanced at Wang Hai, then lay back down and didn't move.
"Little Grey".
Wang Hai called out again, but this time Xiao Hui didn't even lift its ears.
"Isn't it quite active? I saw Ran calling it, and it was so cheerful."
Wang Hai was a little confused.
Upon hearing this, Li Wu responded with a smile:
"You'll gradually accept it. This guy only recognizes Brother Ran; he doesn't recognize anyone else."
"It considers itself to be on the same level as you."
"On par with me?" Wang Hai was taken aback. "What kind of dog acts like that?"
"Let me take a look."
Wang Hai put down the tomatoes, washed his hands, and walked over to Xiao Hui.
Then he stretched out his hand and said:
"Little Grey, shake hands!"
Little Gray Nose snorted and turned his head away disdainfully.
Wang Hai froze again, looking at Li Wu with a blank expression, and asked incredulously, "It snorted at me?"
Li Wu was laughing heartily beside him.
That's the feeling!
"Come on, Little Grey, shake hands!"
Wang Hai turned around and tried again.
All I saw was Little Grey sigh, stand up, turn around and slowly walk away, leaving only its back view.
It just left without looking back.
The meaning is obvious:
I can't be bothered with you.
Wang Hai was speechless.
"This guy really knows how to treat people differently based on their status!"
Wang Hai touched Coke and Sprite again. Coke and Sprite were both very good-natured and didn't react much, which made Wang Hai feel a little relieved.
Then, Wang Hai washed his hands and went to work on getting tomato seeds.
Once the seeds are dried, they can be planted again.
After these extra-large red tomatoes are sold in supermarkets, many people will definitely study how to grow them.
But only within the boundaries of a farm can large, high-quality tomatoes be grown.
In other places, it can only grow ordinary large red tomatoes.
That's normal.
After all, rare varieties are more difficult to cultivate, which is why they are so valuable.
Life on the farm remains lively.
Meanwhile, in the premium fruit and vegetable section of Yonghui Supermarket.
The vegetables and fruits sold here are all carefully selected.
For example, Chilean cherries, live frozen black tiger shrimp from Thailand, etc.
A new type of vegetable was added to one of the containers today.
Premium extra-large red tomatoes.
These tomatoes, displayed on the shelf, are large and round, making them very eye-catching.
From a distance, it looks like a red lantern.
A couple came to buy groceries and were taken aback when they saw these tomatoes.
"What kind of tomatoes are these? They're so big and round."
The wife picked one up and looked at it. The tomato felt good, firm, but not too hard.
"9.5 yuan per jin, that's more expensive than apples."
"Buy two to try."
They ultimately decided to buy two.
Then they went home and started cooking. They only cut open one tomato and made two dishes: scrambled eggs with tomatoes and tomato and egg soup.
When the family tasted the tomatoes while eating together, they were quite surprised.
"The food smells so good today?"
"These tomatoes are really good!"
The child didn't even have time to talk; he was eating scrambled eggs with tomatoes mixed with rice and quickly finished the whole bowl of rice.
This dish is so good with rice!
Customers gave the extra-large red tomatoes very positive reviews.
So the tomatoes sold out very quickly.
Customers even come every day to ask if we have extra-large red tomatoes.
After learning about the situation, manager Yang Kaifu immediately contacted Xu Ran and signed a long-term contract with Xu Ran's farm.
Going forward, we will ensure that goods are supplied once every two months.
There is a 10-day interval in between for harvesting and transportation.
Xu Ran was naturally happy to agree.
This is the farm's best sales channel, bar none.
Partnering with major supermarket brands is highly beneficial to the development of the farm.
Moreover, the super red product has only just begun to gain popularity and is currently only sold in Yonghui Supermarkets in the local area and two surrounding cities.
Once they gain more fame, they may appear on official live streaming platforms and in live streaming rooms.
At that time, there will truly be a shortage of supply.
After securing the long-term contract, the farm sprang into action, ramping up production.
We'll plant tomatoes.
During this period, the sunflowers also grew rapidly, and they all shot up.
It looks like a lush green expanse.
Wang Hai and Zhao Shan had just arrived and had never seen anything like this before.
Seeing the 20 acres of sunflowers, I was amazed.
"Ran-ge is really generous, planting so much land entirely with sunflowers."
"How are we going to sell these?"
Wang Hai couldn't help but sigh.
"That's Ran-ge's concern. We just need to do our jobs well."
Zhao Shan responded.
"It's not about caring about the farm's development; it's great to work here. Plus, we get a raise every two years, and they even pay for our social insurance and housing fund. Li Wu isn't even as old as us, and he's about to get a raise too."
Wang Hai is a very honest person; he always says what he thinks.
"I've heard that Brother Ran is really capable, he has connections behind him, so working hard is definitely the right thing to do."
After chatting for a few minutes, the two went to the greenhouse to familiarize themselves with the work.
There's a lot of work to do inside the greenhouse: watering, fertilizing, weeding, temperature control, inspections, and so on.
But the work atmosphere is good, and everyone works with peace of mind.
Xu Ran, on the other hand, felt relieved.
Every day I just feed the pigs and the chickens.
He especially enjoyed feeding those 100 little yellow chicks.
These guys are at their cutest when they're all furry.
I take a walk around the chicken coop every day, pick up two chickens and play with them, and my days are full of fun.
