Selling Vegetables
The mountain road leading to the town from the Lu family village was not very narrow. It was also very spacious. The road was more than five meters wide, but for some reason, the road was filled with extremely hard boulders. Cars could not pass through it, so only small vehicles such as bicycles and motorcycles could pass through. It was not that the Lu family village had not thought of filling up the road.
However, these boulders were all one or two meters tall. If they wanted to fill up this mountain road, they would have to pay a few million yuan. Just like that, they left it at that.
Lu Bin's uncle was called Lu Hao. He had a small clothing business in town. The business wasn't very prosperous, but it could only maintain itself. Lu Hao had two daughters. The eldest daughter, Lu Wenwen, had become a monk last year, and the second daughter was still in university. The family only had two elders left. They were extremely happy that their younger brother, Lu Ze, was able to take care of his two nieces. It added a lot of joy to the family.
First Aunt woke up early this morning to prepare breakfast. Just as she finished cooking porridge, she heard someone knocking on the door.
"Who is this? Why are you here so early in the morning?”She nagged, but she still opened the door.
"Hello, Auntie." Lu Bin revealed his signature shy smile and greeted his auntie who opened the door.
Seeing that it was Lu Bin, First Aunt immediately smiled." Xiao Bin, why are you here so early? Are you tired? Come in quickly."”
Her aunt loved her nephew, but her heart ached for him. He was only fourteen years old, yet he had to take on the entire family. It was really hard on him. When she saw Lu Bin coming, she quickly pulled him in.
Lu Bin followed behind her with two bags of vegetables in his hands." Auntie, is breakfast ready?"”Lu Bin asked as he sat on the coffee table.
"Hey, I almost forgot if you didn't mention it. The porridge has just been cooked.”Only then did First Aunt remember that breakfast wasn't ready yet, so she hurried to the kitchen.
Lu Bin also smiled as he picked out a few vegetables from the plastic bag and sent them into the kitchen. Aunt did not pay much attention to them. However, when the alluring fragrance appeared, Aunt realized that the vegetables her nephew brought were not simple.
Meanwhile, Lu Bin's eldest uncle and two younger sisters, who were still sleeping, were aroused by the fragrance. They went to the kitchen with dazed eyes.
"Auntie, what are we eating today? It smells so good.”
"Yes, Yue 'er is hungry.”
The two little sisters said in a childish voice. Their eyes were still closed and their little noses were still sniffing hard. They were really cute.
"Hehe, you two little gluttons. If you're hungry, why don't you go wash your teeth?”Lu Bin walked over and gently rubbed the two little heads. He smiled and said, not forgetting to hang the two little fellows 'noses.
"Ah!" The two little fellows heard the sound of their thoughts and opened their eyes to see Lu Bin. They rubbed their eyes in disbelief before confirming that it was indeed their brother standing in front of them. They threw themselves into Lu Bin's arms and shouted happily.
"Brother, we miss you so much."
"I miss you guys too. Go wash your face and brush your teeth. Auntie has already prepared breakfast.”Under the threat of delicious food, the two little fellows reluctantly left Lu Bin's embrace and quickly ran to the bathroom.
Amidst the shock, everyone finished their breakfast. Except for Lu Bin, everyone had a round belly. As it was still early, they all sat on the coffee table to rest and digest their food.
"Uncle, do you know the owner of the hotel or the higher-ups?”Lu Bin asked his eldest uncle. This was the main purpose of his visit to his eldest uncle's house.
"You want to sell these vegetables in the hotel?”Once Lu Bin finished speaking, Lu Hao could roughly guess that a person who could do business was not a simple person. Although his business was not very successful, Lu Hao still had some business acumen.
Therefore, Lu Bin was not surprised that Lu Hao could guess it. He only nodded and continued,"Yes, these vegetables are so delicious after simple cooking. I believe that after passing through the chef of the hotel, the taste will definitely be higher. I believe that no one can refuse this delicious taste, right, uncle, aunt?”
Recalling the wonderful taste just now, the two of them subconsciously nodded.
"I just don't know if uncle knows the relevant staff of the hotel. If not, I can only sell it at the market. It's just that it's difficult to sell it at a high price.”Lu Bin looked at his uncle with hope. If his uncle could not help, Lu Bin could only go to the market to sell vegetables. It was indeed as Lu Bin had said. If he were to offer a high price at the beginning of the market, it would only scare people away, and he would only be able to sell them at a low price.
"I can help you with that. The father of your sister Wenwen's classmate opened a Huifeng Building in our town. We can try there.”
"That's great. Thank you, uncle.”Lu Bin immediately became happy.
"Silly boy, we're family.”Lu Hao said unhappily. Lu Bin could only laugh awkwardly.
After resting for a while, First Aunt sent Lu Xi and Lu Yue to school. Meanwhile, Lu Bin stayed at First Uncle's house until past nine o'clock before leaving with First Uncle. Lu Hao had just called and found out that Wen Wen's classmate's father would be waiting for them at Hui Feng Building.
When they arrived at Huifeng Building, the owner of Huifeng Building was already waiting in the hall. Uncle walked forward with a smile." Director Zhao, I've really troubled you this time."”
"There's no trouble. If that girl finds out that I'm not going to help, she'll definitely tear my old bones apart." Director Zhao said with a smile.”
Lu Bin sized up Director Zhao from behind his uncle. Lu Bin's first impression of him was not bad. This time, Director Zhao also noticed Lu Bin. He looked at Lu Bin and said to his uncle,"This is your little genius. He's really a handsome boy.”
Lu Bin's small face was slightly red. He smiled shyly and said,"Greetings, Uncle Zhao."
Seeing that the little boy was still a little shy, Director Zhao immediately liked the little boy. He brought the two of them to the kitchen and gave the vegetables that Lu Bin had brought to the head chef.
Under Lu Bin's suggestion, the head chef only cooked the vegetables simply.
This made Director Zhao very curious." Xiao Bin is very confident in his vegetables.”
"Hehe, Uncle Zhao, these vegetables are all green and harmless food. Only in this way can you taste the original taste of the vegetables.”Using the Spring of Life to water it was Lu Bin's confidence. Moreover, after a night of absorption, it was even better than what he had tasted last night.
While the two of them were talking, the head chef had already made a few simple dishes. One was scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and the other was cucumber. It could be said that the signature fragrance once again assailed their noses.
Director Zhao had seen the cooking process with his own eyes. Just adding some salt and gourmet powder could emit such a fragrance. Director Zhao could be said to be very knowledgeable. He had never seen any vegetables with such a fragrance.
He impatiently picked up the cucumber and stuffed it into his mouth. The texture was green and different from other cucumbers. A unique fragrance lingered in his mouth. His chopsticks did not stop. In just a short while, the plate of cucumbers was finished.
