Chapter 674 Negotiation

Dinner was ready quickly, and Li Tongtong's eyes lit up when he ate the delicious noodles.

"Aunt Qiao An, I haven't had a meal that's not bitter for a long time."

Bi Qiaoan tasted it carefully and felt that it still had a slightly bitter taste, so he smiled and said, "My family harvested wheat early, and there must be old grain mixed in."

Then he looked up at Shen Yanming, wanting to confirm with him.

Shen Yanming nodded, "I mixed half of it with last year's. The tomato sauce tastes stronger, which masks the bitterness."

"You two really know how to live. Now the food won't be so hard to swallow. My mother always uses very bitter noodles when cooking, and she insists on saving some good ones for us to eat during festivals." Li Tongtong said with a smile.

"This is good, too. It's better than eating bitter rice and noodles during festivals."

The three of them finished their dinner quickly, and then played with An An and Nuan Nuan. The two babies were awake for too long during the day, so they fell asleep before nine o'clock.

Li Tongtong saw that the two little cuties had fallen asleep and felt a little bored, so she said to Shen Yanming: "Uncle Shen, I want to go home."

"Want to play for a while longer?"

"No, both babies are asleep, and it's boring for me to sit alone. Let me go home. I can read a book and take a bath when I get home."

"Okay then. I'll take you back. But you must close the door and be careful."

"I know. Why do you nag like my parents? I don't know if An An and Nuan Nuan have grown up and can bear it." Li Tongtong said with a smile.

Shen Yanming smiled and shook his head, "Whether you can bear it or not, I am their father. Okay, let's go!"

Li Tongtong waved her hand and said, "Aunt Qiao An, I'm going home. Thank you for your hospitality today. I'm very happy."

Bi Qiaoan came out to see them off, "Well, come and play when you have time."

Watching the two people go downstairs, Bi Qiaoan closed the door, walked to the bedroom, and entered the space with the two treasures.

After a busy day, she was a little tired and felt a little sleepy while soaking in the bathtub.

After finally getting myself ready, I felt like I had to do something, but looking at the time, I was still out of the space.

Chen Yanming had been back for a while. He tidied the house and was about to enter the space when he saw his wife coming out.

"Did you send the person there?"

"Well, I came back after I locked the door."

Bi Qiaoan nodded and said nothing more. There are too many secrets at home, so it is not appropriate to invite others to live here.

"Is there anything else you want to do? If not, let's go inside."

Chen Yanming shook his head and entered the space with his wife in his arms.

"Honey, you came out specially to pick me up today, do you have any plans?" Shen Yanming asked with a smile without letting go of Bi Qiaoan.

"Well, I haven't been in this space for a while. I'm afraid the crops on the mountain have grown several times. I want to go and take a look and pick the fruits." It's troublesome not being able to use consciousness to harvest.

"It's time to go up and take a look. I wonder if the land has been destroyed by any small animals."

The couple moved immediately, carrying a bamboo basket, some seeds, and a small cart up the mountain. Although the cart could not be used to go down the mountain, it could save them a lot of effort when they were on the mountain.

It didn't take them long to reach the top of the mountain, and as soon as they got there, they found the mountain was quite lively.

All kinds of birds chirped and flew around, and there were rabbits and pheasants, as if they were racing. Squirrels were even more numerous, jumping from one branch to another.

"Is this, an animal conference?" Bi Qiaoan joked, but Shen Yanming had a bad feeling in his heart, "No, they were attracted by the fruits and vegetables in the field, right?"

In fact, he was right. He hadn't been here for several months, and this place had become a paradise for animals to frolic.

The huge watermelons were smashed open, and a bunch of small animals rushed to eat them, not wasting anything. The same was true for the grapes and strawberries. If they couldn't pick a whole bunch, they would just pick one, since they could eat it anyway.

As Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan approached, the jubilant scene suddenly became quiet. All the small animals looked at the couple warily, as if they were worried that they would rob them.

The couple smiled bitterly in their hearts. What should they do? It was obvious that they couldn't do it! They saw the wild boars, tigers and leopards hiding behind the big trees. They didn't know how they lived in harmony.

Normally, a normal person would run away when seeing this scene. But the couple had a strange intuition that as the masters of the space, they would not be attacked by these large beasts. Otherwise, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for them?

Shen Yanming said tentatively: "This is what I planted."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw all the animals hiding the fruits in their hands behind their backs.

Shen Yanming felt that the other party could understand, so there should be room for negotiation, so he said: "I can give you half, or even two-thirds of the output, but I need to take the remaining small part away."

The animals looked at each other, all a little hesitant.

Shen Yanming gave another strong dose of medicine, "I know you like to eat fruits, but these varieties are limited. If the deal is reached, I can help you grow some other varieties of fruits."

"Squeak, squeak, chirp, quack, quack..."

After a while of noise, the leading tiger nodded and made way.

Shen Yanming breathed a sigh of relief, walked in and saw that although the place was bustling, it was not destroyed.

All animals only picked ripe fruits to eat, protecting the seedlings and trees very well. And they ate all the fruits they picked, without any sign of waste. In fact, they did better than humans.

Bi Qiaoan exclaimed, "They are so smart. Is this a sign of their intelligence?"

Shen Yanming didn't say anything. He was still on guard, afraid that these jackals, tigers and leopards would launch a surprise attack.

In the end, everything went peacefully. The two of them walked to a place where no animals had gone. The little squirrel stood in front of Shen Yanming and squeaked for a while, then patted his chest and raised his little head proudly.

Neither of them knew what it wanted to say, but they still guessed: "You mean, you saved this place?"

The little squirrel nodded. "Yes, yes, that's why I gave away most of the orchard."

Shen Yanming smiled and stroked its tail, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll bring you something delicious next time."

The little squirrel was happy. He jumped a few times on the spot and then ran away.

Bi Qiaoan was amused and asked in a low voice, "Husband, why do they all gather here? Is there no delicious fruit on the mountain?"

"They probably all have therapeutic effects, so we can't eat them randomly. Our fruits, besides looking good and tasting good, have no other uses, so they can be eaten to their heart's content." Shen Yanming said nonsense in a serious tone.

Bi Qiaoan curled the corners of his lips, "I believed your lies!"

But a magpie eavesdropping in the distance nodded and said, "Yes, yes, that's it."
