Chapter 264: Chapter 170: Fresh Vegetables Arrive
The next second, my eyes lit up: "Ah! The long-lost taste of fresh vegetables, it’s so blissful!"
Jin Churan looked absolutely enchanted, clearly he genuinely liked it.
"Now that there are tomatoes, knowing Boss Chu’s habits, I guess other vegetables shouldn’t be a problem either. It seems we won’t have to worry about fresh vegetables in the future."
Huo Jun glanced at the tomato in his hand and voiced his thoughts.
The others heard Huo Jun’s words, and their eyes lit up instantly.
"If this is really the case, then the days ahead will truly be promising."
Heaven knows, ever since they moved into the Jianglin Hotel, the vegetables in the restaurant were so limited that no matter how good they tasted, it became tiresome.
Now with tomatoes, they are bound to become everyone’s favorite for the time being.
Jin Chuyu and the others had just left the Jianglin Grocery Store when more people walked in.
Just like that, word spread quickly throughout every corner of the Jianglin Hotel that the grocery store had tomatoes.
However, unlike other things, tomatoes aren’t supplied without limitation, so by the time many come looking for tomatoes, all they can see is the "sold out" sign.
This leads to Chu Jiangyue being asked about when tomatoes will be restocked and whether the quantity will be increased, whenever she leaves her residence.
This also causes Chu Jiangyue to avoid leaving home until the crops in her farm mature.
However, Chu Jiangyue’s farm crops mature quickly, just within a day and night. Strawberries, wheat, watermelon, peaches, and pumpkins she planted have already matured completely.
Chu Jiangyue immediately informed Shen Zhigui and five others that they could come to her for an advance purchase.
After Shen Zhigui and the others finish buying, they will place the remaining items in Jianglin Grocery Store for sale.
Since Chu Jiangyue already has the items in her kitchen, she didn’t keep any for herself.
When Shen Zhigui and the five received Chu Jiangyue’s message, disbelief flashed across their eyes.
From the time Chu Jiangyue promised them some crops until now, it has been less than two days, which seems scientifically impossible.
But there’s no reason for Chu Jiangyue to lie, and eliminating all other impossible options leaves only the correct answer, no matter what the content is.
"Why not go take a look? Chu wouldn’t be foolish enough to deceive us with lies."
As soon as Shen Zhigui finished talking, the five people left their residence and quickly arrived outside Chu Jiangyue’s farm.
When they got there, Chu Jiangyue was already waiting for them outside the farm.
"You’re here, I was just waiting for you to come, I’m harvesting everything at once.
We have everything you want: strawberries and peaches are 5 silver coins each, watermelon and pumpkin are 10 silver coins each, wheat is 1 silver coin per ounce. How many do you want?"
Chu Jiangyue quoted the prices while operating the one-click harvest function.
The prices were much higher than tomatoes, but Shen Zhigui and others didn’t find it expensive; rather, they felt that the tomato prices were set too low.
The reason Chu Jiangyue set the prices this way was partly because tomatoes were the first batch of farm products officially sold at Jianglin Grocery Store, so she wanted to offer some favorable pricing to the guests at Jianglin Hotel.
Moreover, setting a low price initially was also meant to attract more customers.
Shen Zhigui and the five discussed and finally decided to buy an amount worth 2 gold coins for each crop.
As for how much one gold coin could buy, they would decide after finishing this batch.
gold coins meant getting 40 peaches and strawberries, 20 pumpkins and watermelons, and 20 pounds of wheat.
