Agriculture Escape: Ultimate Boss Has A Space Pocket! - Chapter 177

177 Unfortunately, We are Born in this Dynasty

Yu Suisheng sneered and said to Little Cat, “Don’t worry, Lord Yang will definitely seek justice for you.”

There had been enough incidents in Lintian Village. If Lord Yang were to come again, Lintian Village would completely become the laughing stock of the surrounding villages.

Elder Lin hated those lowly people to death, but the crucial thing now was to appease Yu Suisheng. He hurriedly said to Tao Yinzhen, “You from the Ren family, say something. I’ll get those bastards to compensate you!”

Tao Yinzhen couldn’t offend the entire village. She could only look at Yu Suisheng and ask softly, “Master Yu, the fruits of other families are as delicious. Can you treat them as our own?”

!!
She was very skilful with her words as she deliberately reminded Yu Suisheng that the price of their fruits was different from others.

Yu Suisheng did not take the narrow-mindedness of a countryside woman seriously. He had personally promised the price, so he naturally should give it to their family.

However, if he let them off so easily, these people from Lintian Village would never learn a deep lesson.

With a cold expression, he looked at Elder Lin faintly. “I can’t trust your character anymore.”

Everyone in Lintian Village panicked.

They hurriedly begged, “No, Master Yu, they did it. It has nothing to do with us.”

Yu Suisheng looked at them expressionlessly. Some people even went to beat up the man who had gone to Little Cat’s house to damage the fruits the previous night, hoping that it could appease Yu Suisheng’s anger.

Even so, Yu Suisheng was still indifferent.

Tao Yinzhen had earned one to two taels from selling fruits the day before. When she thought about how the few taels of silver on the tree had disappeared, she wished she could hack these people from Lintian Village to death, but she was afraid of being avenged and did not dare to fall out with them.

At this moment, Elder Lin suddenly said, “Master Yu, I’ll ask them to compensate Little Cat with twice the amount, 600 catties!”

Elder Lin thought that Yu Suisheng wanted to help Little Cat’s family seek justice.

Unexpectedly, Yu Suisheng still did not talk to him, as if he was already disdainful of talking to him.

Elder Lin met Yu Suisheng’s clear eyes and felt hatred in his heart. Yu Suisheng was clearly the lowest ranking, but he still dared to look down on him.

Elder Lin hesitated for a long time. For the sake of money, he gritted his teeth and begged, “Master Yu, please accept the fruits of our entire village. It’s fine if it’s cheaper.”

What the businessman wanted was just profit. Yu Suisheng seemed to be doing it for Little Cat, but it was just to lower the price.

Yu Suisheng was confident that he could choose not to accept the fruits of their village, but Elder Lin was not confident that they could sell them.

As soon as he finished speaking, the villagers were afraid that they wouldn’t be able to sell the plums for a single copper coin and shouted prices without any care.

“Master Yu, my family’s pears only cost one copper coin for two catties. We also were the ones who damaged Little Cat’s family’s fruits. Please collect the fruits from our family!”

When one family started, countless families also continued, shouting lower and lower prices.

The price dropped so low that an adult fruit tree producing hundreds of catties of fruits could only earn a few dozen copper coins at most.

It was too late for Elder Lin to stop them. Yu Suisheng suddenly agreed. “Since you’re so sincere and honest, Ill give you a rate of three catties of pears for one copper coin, two catties of bayberries for one copper coin, and one copper coin for a catty of lychee. Go and pick the fruits from your village.”

After gaining a huge advantage, he still pretended to be benevolent. This almost angered Elder Lin to death.

The entire village was grateful to the cunning Yu Suisheng.

Before Elder Lin could recover from it, Yu Suisheng urged Elder Lin to compensate for the fruits that belonged to Little Cat’s family.

Elder Lin’s two sons had gone to damage Little Cat’s family’s fruits the previous night.

There were not many fruit trees at home to begin with, and most of the fruits were compensated to Little Cat.

The remaining fruits could not be exchanged for even half a coin.

Elder Lin was so angry that he almost broke his teeth from gritting too hard.

After all the work, their family did not gain anything.

Yu Suisheng had returned from Lintian Village with a full load. There were so many fruits, but they were not even as expensive as a bottle of commoner Phoenix Feather Wine. Bai Wutong could not help but praise, “Talent!”

However, Yu Suisheng said humbly, “I’m far inferior to Old Master Sheng.”

Bai Wutong sighed again. “No wonder he could become the number one rich businessman in the Yan Kingdom!”

If it was in the modern era, Sheng Huaixuan would definitely be able to build his own business empire.

Unfortunately, he was born in this dynasty.

…

As Yang Gongbing promoted the spray machine, the people of Woqian Town had already understood that it was such a convenient item to use for watering.

Although they could still water without the spray machine, many filial sons gritted their teeth and bought the spray machine for their parents.

After buying it, they realized that the spray machine was really useful.

Not only could the seedlings and vegetables at the lower grounds be watered conveniently, but the flowers, fruits, and trees at the higher grounds could also be watered.

Apart from that, the most tiring job of cleaning the pigpen became much easier.

When the rich families found out about the use of the spray machine, they immediately bought a few. It was simply too useful for watering the flowers and cleaning the house.

Woqian Town was small, and the market demand was small.

After Yang Gongbing successfully promoted it in Woqian Town, he quickly reported it to Qu Yuanxian and asked him if he could sell the spray machine produced in Woqian Town to Pingyang County.

Qu Yuanxian quickly agreed and opened an exclusive stall for the spray machine in the market to promote it widely.

120 of the first batch of spray machines arrived in Pingyang County and were quickly sold out.

Everyone was subdued by such a magical spray machine.

The rich families in Pingyang County were more particular. With the spray machine, the masters’ carriages were much easier to wash.

In addition to the big families, the farmers were even more surprised. The straps of the spray machine were very strong. They could water it with water on their backs. It was much easier than carrying water or watering buckets.

Although only a portion of the more prosperous farmers were willing to buy a spray machine, more people were tempted when they saw how useful the spray machine was.

After knowing that the price was not expensive and that it was sold by the government, many people found stalls in the second market and wanted to buy a spray machine.

However, they were informed by the stallkeeper that all the spray machines were sold out. If they wanted to buy them, they would have to wait a few days before Woqian Town sent the goods over.

The farmers and servants of the rich families in Pingyang County were all disappointed. The stallkeeper suddenly told them, “You can pay a deposit first and register your name. This way, you can get the goods immediately after they arrive. Without registering, with so many people demanding it, the next time you are late, you might also not be able to buy it.”

The servants of the rich families decisively paid the deposit so that they could give their master an explanation when they returned.

The remaining farmers repeatedly confirmed with the bailiffs that they would definitely get the spray machine first after paying the deposit. Only then were they assured to pay the deposit.

For a moment, there was a long line of people just paying the deposit.

After Qu Yuanxian learned that the people of Pingyang County were strongly interested in buying the spray machine, he quickly sent a pigeon to Yang Gongbing and asked him to increase the production of the spray machine.

When Yang Gongbing knew that the spray machine had hot sales in Pingyang County, he was extremely happy. But he was also in a difficult spot. There were only limited carpenters in Woqian town. Even if they worked overtime, they might still be unable to meet the high demand of Pingyang County.
