Chapter 539: Chapter 539: Sudden Enlightenment
Qin Han chuckled, “It’s just that they’re not big, and they’re a bit sour.”
“Well, I think it’s just right, sweet and sour. As for the size, maybe it’s a variety issue. You should ask Technician He for some high-quality varieties.”
“Technician He said this is the latest variety. Maybe I didn’t manage the temperature well, or the greenhouse environment affected their size. He also said he’d come to the village in a few days to take a look.”
Lin Chuxia gave Qin Han a thumbs up, “Big brother, you should really work on this. I feel if you get it right, these strawberries could definitely make big money.”
Qin Han scratched his head, “I just wanted to experiment to see if it works. I really didn’t dare to think about making big money. The yield is low, and it’s troublesome. If it’s really too expensive, no one will buy it.”
Mrs. Qin also laughed on the side, “This is just something to snack on for fun. If you really sell it for a few bucks a pound, people would rather buy meat, who would buy it?”
At this moment, Qin Yang had already washed a plate and brought it over.
Lin Chuxia picked one up and lifted it, “Since these are cultivated out of season, you can’t sell them with conventional thinking. As the saying goes, rarity is valuable. Ours is unique in the market, so it has the capital to be sold at a high price. As for who would buy it, of course, it’s not aimed at the mass public.”
“If it’s not aimed at the mass public, then who would I sell it to?” Qin Han was even more confused.
Lin Chuxia put the strawberry in her mouth, not letting it interfere with her speech.
“You need to know, since we can grow strawberries at this time, they’re not ordinary strawberries. In other words, they’re not for ordinary people. The value of a product is not determined by how many people accept it. Many people accept cabbages, and they’re good items. Even if most people can’t afford strawberries, we can’t deny that they’re good. What we need to do is to tap into the group that can consume them, directly avoiding those who can’t. Don’t just think within our small plot of land. Those who can’t pay but have time and energy to pick and choose clients will only make you doubt your product, wasting energy without bringing in returns.”
Qin Han felt enlightened by these words.
It’s true, when his strawberries were ready, many villagers came to check them out, and some even asked how he planned to sell them.
He conservatively mentioned a price, only to be criticized by others, making him really question life.
But if he didn’t sell at that price, this greenhouse wouldn’t even cover the cost, let alone make any reward for his efforts.
“Alright then, sister-in-law, give brother a strategic tip, and I’ll just follow your lead.”
“For this, you should go talk with Wang Cheng, see if he has any sales channels, and also ask Jia Liang.”
The customers coming and going at Qin’s Restaurant aren’t ordinary people.
Mrs. Qin saw the two of them still engrossed in their conversation and stopped Qin Han, “Alright, your sister-in-law has already outlined the path for you. You handle it yourself. She’s pregnant now, how could she have the energy to run around for you.”
Qin Han smiled again, “No need for sister-in-law to run, just need her guidance.”
He already had a rough direction in mind.
Seeing Qin Yang, half-finished with his meal on the side, Lin Chuxia suddenly remembered and asked Mrs. Qin and Qin Han if they had lunch yet.
Upon learning that they had already eaten at Qin’s, she urged Qin Yang to have his lunch.
Under Qin Yang’s glare, Qin Han had no choice but to give up discussing work with his sister-in-law and went to the kitchen with Qin Yang.
Mrs. Qin watched the two brothers with a smile in her eyes.
As a mother, there’s nothing more comforting than seeing her children doing well.
“Your big brother is now someone everyone in the village envies—having both a son and a daughter, owning an agricultural supply store, and being more respected outside than the village chief. He’s blessed, always cheerful, simple-minded, doesn’t have much foresight. Don’t take him too seriously.”
“Big brother’s personality is quite good, just need to be wary of those with ill intentions, make sure he’s not taken advantage of.”
Lin Chuxia quite liked Qin Han’s character, honest and sincere.
Mrs. Qin knew very well that the good days her eldest son was enjoying were all helped by the younger daughter-in-law.
Fortunately, the eldest and his wife knew how to be grateful, always keeping the little son’s family in mind.
“No one can take advantage of him. Even if your big brother is simple, your sister-in-law is there to keep things in check. Oh, when I came over, your sister-in-law insisted on coming along to see you, but I was worried it was too cold for the child, so I didn’t let her. When we left, she was pouting alone in the room.”
Mrs. Qin laughed a little at the end.
Both her daughters-in-law get along well with her, never putting up walls.
Lin Chuxia laughed at the thought of the scene, “Mom, you should keep an eye on big sister-in-law, she’s too carefree. Yaoyao is only a few months old, and she’s already thinking of bringing her out to visit? By the way, mom, how’s Yaoyao? It’s been months since I last saw her, I miss the little one.”
Speaking of her granddaughter, Mrs. Qin remembered something and quickly searched her pockets.
“Oh, my memory! Your sister-in-law took a hundred-day photo of Yaoyao and asked me to bring it over for you to see.”
Saying this, she took out two photos from her inner pocket.
Lin Chuxia hurried to take them, “Sister-in-law knows me well. Look at this little face, getting prettier and prettier. Zhuangzhuang is always photo-bombing, that naughty boy…”
Both photos were taken by Qin Han using Qin Yang’s camera.
One was a solo photo of Little Yaoyao.
The little girl, a little over three months, was still not sitting steadily. Her little chubby face was incredibly cute.
Seeing how much Lin Chuxia loved her child, Mrs. Qin smiled gently, “This room is too plain. New Year is almost here, so buy some big baby calendars to decorate. Look at enough beautiful children, and the child you give birth to will be beautiful too.”
Lin Chuxia laughed and replied, “I don’t need to look at other beautiful children. Just looking at our own kids is enough. Besides, facing Qin Yang every day, how could I have an ugly baby?”
This remark made Mrs. Qin laugh heartily.
Indeed, all their children were good-looking. Back then, the village folks praised her three kids, especially Qin Yang, the handsomest among the three brothers.
“Now that you’re pregnant, I’m relieved. Whether it’s a boy or a girl, having your own children gives new hope to life.”
Lin Chuxia murmured in agreement, gently rubbing her belly, also looking forward to the child.
“Oh, by the way, your big brother installed radiators in the house. He knows you have radiators here too, worried that during the New Year, you’d be uncomfortable staying at home, so he even installed them in that row of rooms, just right since Yaoyao is still little.”
“Mom, you just said big brother wasn’t sharp. This shows he’s thoughtful.”
“He has a bit of calculation in this aspect, just that…”
Seeing Mrs. Qin’s hesitance to speak, Lin Chuxia couldn’t help but ask, “Is there something going on at home?”
Mrs. Qin glanced at her, finally sighed, “It’s nothing major, just Da Wen and Ma Suyun, she’s expecting too, probably a month or so after you. Just confirmed it recently.”
