Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

At this time, Butler Chen had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Jiang Feng coming, he hurried forward and said respectfully: "Master, you are here. You have worked hard, I will take over, you can take a rest first."

Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Okay, Butler Chen. I'll leave it to you next time. I'll sit over there for a while."

Jiang Feng walked to a stool nearby and sat down, watching Butler Chen busy unloading the goods. Carts of watermelons were unloaded in an orderly manner and then placed on the shelves of the shop one by one.

His movements were quick and skillful, and he placed each watermelon carefully to ensure that they would attract the attention of passers-by.

Soon, the shop was filled with fresh watermelons.

These watermelons are round, with emerald green skin and morning dew hanging on them, as if they were just picked from the fields. The fragrance they exude makes people want to taste it.

Manager Chen looked at the watermelons all over the shop with a satisfied smile on his face. He knew that these watermelons were of high quality and delicious, and would definitely be loved by customers.

As the sound of firecrackers rang out, Jiang’s fruit shop officially opened.

At Jiang Feng's signal, the waiters quickly brought a cutting board and knife, and prepared some plates, ready to cut some watermelon for the guests to taste.

The fresh watermelon was cut open, revealing the bright red and juicy flesh. The aroma filled the air, attracting the attention of many passers-by.

They all stopped, some came forward to watch curiously, while others picked up the plates and tasted them directly.

After a while, a middle-aged man took a bite of the watermelon and praised it highly: "This watermelon is so good! It's sweet and delicious, and full of juice. It's simply a delicacy on earth." His praise attracted more people's attention, and everyone came forward to taste it.

"This is indeed our Jiang family's unique watermelon, with high quality and delicious taste." Jiang Feng introduced to the guests with a smile, "The watermelons in our store are picked directly from the fields, so they are guaranteed to be fresh."

"How much is this watermelon?" As the crowd gradually gathered, voices asking about the price were heard one after another.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng quickly took out the wooden sign that Chen Guanjia had prepared and placed it outside the door. The sign clearly read: "Watermelon is three cents a pound. If it's not sweet, you don't have to pay."

This action was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing thousands of waves and immediately attracting the attention of everyone around.

People rushed forward as if attracted by a magnet and surrounded the small stall.

They stared with wide eyes, carefully examining the words on the wooden sign, as if they wanted to see the secrets hidden behind the words.

Some impatient people even picked up a piece of cut watermelon and took a bite without waiting for the stall owner to call them.

In an instant, the sweet and juicy flesh melts in your mouth, bringing a cool and refreshing feeling.

They nodded with satisfaction, with contented smiles on their lips; some people even squatted down and began to carefully select the watermelons they liked.

“This price is really a good deal!”

"Yes, and the melons look pretty good."

"I have to buy a few more to bring home for my family to try."

Similar exclamations came one after another, echoing among the crowd.

Jiang Feng and Butler Chen stood quietly aside, looking at the lively scene and the endless stream of customers, with gratified smiles on their faces.

They are well aware that today’s grand opening was a huge success.

Perhaps it’s because this novelty is too rare, or perhaps it’s because the watermelon shaved ice that was just launched yesterday is still unknown, resulting in not many people knowing how delicious watermelon is.

However, in less than half an hour, all ten truckloads of watermelons that had just arrived were sold out! Customers crowded around the store, asking if there were any more in stock.

"Boss, are there no more?" Those customers who didn't buy watermelons seemed a little disappointed and anxious.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, guest. Our watermelons are on the way and should be here soon."

"Anything else?" Hearing Jiang Feng's words, everyone's eyes lit up and they all expressed their willingness to wait.

Soon, the sound of horse hooves and wheels rolling could be heard in the distance. Another batch of horse-drawn carriages loaded with watermelons slowly drove up and stopped in front of the store. The shop assistants quickly unloaded the goods and placed the fresh watermelons on the shelves one by one.

Seeing the newly arrived watermelons, customers gathered around to pick them. Some picked up the watermelons and knocked them to see if they sounded crisp; others cut them open and tasted them with satisfied smiles on their faces.

Cloud Town Wind Mansion

In the Feng Mansion in Yunwu Town, Steward Feng was like an ant on hot pot, pacing around the room with an anxious look on his face.

Ever since Young Master Feng Qingyu went to the county to handle affairs, he has been ordered to keep an eye on Miss Jiang's every move, especially any latest developments about her.

Just when Butler Feng was worried, Feng Qingyu happened to return to the mansion.

Seeing this, Feng Qingyu was puzzled. He quickly put down what he was doing and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Steward Feng stepped forward and answered hurriedly, "Master! That girl actually opened a fruit shop in our town today, specializing in a new fruit called 'watermelon'. I heard that this fruit is very rare here! Not only that, yesterday the girl specially sent someone to deliver several watermelons for us to taste!"

"Watermelon?" Feng Qingyu's eyes lit up and he stood up from his seat.

It has been a long time since he last tasted this delicious fruit, watermelon. He only had a quick taste at that time, but he still remembers the unique taste.

At that moment, he ordered without hesitation: "Bring those watermelons here immediately, and prepare the knives and chopping boards. This young master wants to cut them up by himself and taste this rare delicacy."

After the steward responded respectfully, he walked quickly towards the kitchen.

Not long after, he returned to the living room, holding a large, round, green watermelon carefully in his hands, and a servant holding a kitchen knife and a chopping board followed closely behind him.

Feng Qingyu couldn't wait to take the watermelon, looked at it carefully, and then skillfully picked up the knife and began to cut it.

As the blade cuts into the skin, a crisp cracking sound is heard, and the bright red, juicy flesh comes into view.

He couldn't help but pick up a piece with a look of joy on his face, and took a bite with great happiness. Instantly, he felt a fresh and sweet taste spreading in his mouth, and the juice flowed down the corners of his mouth, like a feast for the taste buds.

The taste was far better than any other fruit he had ever tasted, and it was intoxicating.

Feng Qingyu ate the food with gusto for a while, and suddenly he had an idea and wanted to try whether the watermelon had the same magical effect as last time.

So, he circulated the internal Qi in his body, trying to check the condition of his body, but after practicing for ten minutes, he was surprised to find that there was no change.

He couldn't help but feel suspicious and thought to himself, "Could it be that this watermelon is different from the one I ate before?"
