Chapter 218 Business Opportunities Emerge, Enthusiasm Soars

Wen Chengjian and his brothers exchanged glances, then silently turned away.

He asked directly, "Third Uncle, is this fruit selling well?"

When Uncle Wei started talking about business, he became very talkative. “If you remove the ‘ma’ word, fruit is a rare commodity in the northern desert, let alone this fresh fruit. It must be incredibly expensive.”

An astronomical price!!!

Wenwen's eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed.

She remembered that when the potatoes were sprouting before, her brothers couldn't control their spiritual power well, so they either cooked them or left them half-cooked.

After that, whenever they had free time, Wen Chengjian and the others would secretly work hard, and along the way, they did manage to develop some skills.

As he gradually became more familiar with and stable in controlling his spiritual power, he had used up all the potato and sweet potato seed tubers.

One night, after his family had finished eating fruit, Wen Chengbin suddenly had a brilliant idea to manipulate the fruit pit.

The brothers have finally found a way to combine cultivation with other activities.

At first, there was no progress, and it seemed that these people were about to explode and go crazy. Just then, Wenwen found a book about planting techniques in her space. After she took it out to them, they were overjoyed.

So the teenagers devoted themselves to practicing planting techniques with great enthusiasm.

Persistence pays off; the fruit pit in their hands slowly sprouted and grew into a seedling.

Unfortunately, they were still en route and couldn't plant them yet, so they all put them into storage bags. I guess their storage bags already contain quite a few fruit tree seedlings.

While strolling through the valley today, Wen Chengjian brought up this matter again. He was just waiting to find a place to plant fruit tree saplings as soon as they moved there. Originally, he thought that after planting them, he would just let the fruit tree saplings grow freely. But now it seems that their dream of getting rich is in the works. It is impossible to let the fruit tree saplings grow freely. They have to help them bloom and bear fruit as soon as possible.

as predicted.

The words "sky-high price" from Uncle Wei San aroused the enthusiasm of several teenagers.

Wen Chengjian: "Third Uncle, what is the exorbitant price?"

Wen Chengbin: "Third Uncle, is it really worth an astronomical price?"

Wen Chengxi: "Third Uncle, is that exorbitant price reasonable?"

Wen Chengfeng: "Third Uncle, is there a bottom line for this exorbitant price?"

The brothers asked questions at the same time, leaving Uncle Wei speechless. His face turned red and then white, then red again.

These idiots, don't they understand that this is an exaggeration?

"Third Uncle, this is fruit, it can't be eaten as a meal, no matter how expensive it is, it won't fill you up."

Wenwen's timely explanation eased the awkward atmosphere in the room.

Uncle Wei touched his nose and coughed a few times to cover his embarrassment. "Wen'er is right. Fruit really can't be eaten as a meal. Besides, this exorbitant price isn't to say that it's comparable to the sky. It's just an exaggeration."

However, Wen Chengjian and his group's dream of getting rich cannot be ignored.

The group exchanged glances, adjusted their unrealistic expectations, and humbly asked, "Third Uncle, do you still want to buy more of these fruits?"

Ok?

Restock?

Uncle Wei turned to look at the group of teenagers with an air of importance, then looked at Wen Yuanqian and his group. The latter seemed completely unconcerned, calmly drinking tea and chatting, not caring about what was going on with them at all.

Uncle Wei's interest was piqued. "You have connections? Where are they?"

As the primary representative of the third generation of the Wen family, Wen Chengjian stated his position, "Third Uncle, just tell me if you want to stock up on goods!"

Such a serious attitude forced Uncle Wei to take it seriously, and he said, "I want to."

"Okay, we'll contact you again when we're ready."

Uncle Wei the Third...

What's going on? I dismissed him with just one sentence.

Such a big deal, settled so hastily? Is it over?

Uncle Wei was both amused and exasperated. “You guys are thinking so wildly, I can’t keep up. Why don’t you give me a straight answer? I’m getting old and it’s a bit too much for me.”

Seeing the commotion, Uncle Wei finally couldn't stand it anymore and said bluntly, "Third brother, let's just wait for Cheng Jian and the others to inform us about this deal. Let them do what they want. Young people need more experience, hahaha."

Wen Yuanqian and Wen Qilin both agreed, "Yes, let the young people do what they want, hahaha."

"Alright, your uncle will wait for your news. Sigh—" Uncle Wei sighed deeply.

The fruit was eaten quickly, and more was served after it was finished; there were large melons and small fruits.

There were also some ordinary fruits mixed in.

Ever since the Wen family members were able to sense the spiritual energy contained in the fruit, they have basically stopped eating ordinary fruit. The ordinary fruit they eat was picked on the way up the mountain and has been kept in Wenwen's space ever since.

Taking the opportunity, I brought them out to test my uncles' tastes. "Uncles, try these and see if you can tell the difference."

Wenwen is observant and attentive to her surroundings.

She noticed that Uncle Ye took a bite of the apricot, frowned slightly, seemed to chew it slowly a few times, swallowed it whole, and then held the rest in his hand, examining it.

Uncle Wei picked up an apple, looked at it, smelled it, and then took a bite. He chewed it a few times and then stopped.

Uncle Wei was much more direct. He pointed at the fruit on the table and commented before even eating it, "These look fresh, but they don't look as juicy as the ones from before. They seem to lack a bit of luster."

Uncle Wei's words were met with approval and urging from everyone.

"Third Uncle has a good eye, I admire him!"

"Third Uncle, don't just look, try it!"

Uncle Wei had already looked at it, given his first impression, and then took a bite, "Mmm—crunch—"

Uncle Wei's facial expression remained extremely calm and unchanged. After eating an apricot, he then ate a peach.

Finally, he spat out the pit, pondered for a few moments, and then, under everyone's watchful eyes, accidentally let out a burp.

"Uh, I ate too much."

Wenwen covered her mouth and chuckled, "Third Uncle, tell me about it."

Uncle Wei: "...These peaches and apricots taste and feel similar to what we usually buy. They're just fresh enough, but they can't compare to the ones we just had."

Wen Chengbin asked eagerly, "Third Uncle, what exactly did you feel?"

Uncle Wei organized his thoughts, “After eating that piece of cantaloupe, I felt refreshed all over. It was like a warm feeling came from my stomach. In short, my stomach felt very comfortable. I wanted to eat another piece, but unfortunately, my stomach was already full, hahaha.”

"Hahaha......"

The Wen family couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that Uncle Wei's sense of taste and bodily sensations were quite sensitive.

The thatched cottage was filled with peace and warmth.

Suddenly, this warm moment was broken by a series of urgent knocks on the door.

"Brother Wen, are you home? This is Wang Datie. Sorry to bother you, but we need your help..."

Wen Chengjian was closest to the door, so he hurriedly opened it.

Outside the door, Wang Datie and Wang Dali were the leaders, followed by a large group of people.
