Winter days are short, usually involving them rising before dawn and coming home only after nightfall. Now they often worked into midnight inside their own greenhouse.
Upon entering the greenhouse, the two brothers removed their cotton-padded jackets. To be honest, besides feeling a little chilly on the road, it was warm inside the greenhouse and not cold at all. Without a break, the two brothers began picking tomatoes. By the time dawn arrived, they had picked about two big boxes. They also had one big box of cucumbers.
While it was still dark, the brothers took two boxes of tomatoes and a big box of cucumbers left over from yesterday to the wholesale market across the street to sell.
As soon as the Tang brothers' tricycle arrived, it was surrounded by a crowd of vegetable vendors.
Once weighed, there were thousands of jin of tomatoes and more than two hundred jin of cucumbers.
Just from this sale, they made nearly two thousand yuan.
