Farming is Enough, Why Bother with Scumbags?

It was just a small matter of falling off a cliff, so why did he transmigrate?

Beastman Aben, during a planting and harvesting process, accidentally slipped and fell off a cliff. He "soul...

Chapter 45

Milk sales weren't very high that morning, but by the afternoon, when Liu Ben brought back the second batch of fresh milk from the cattle farm, the store had already sold out. Some customers, who had heard from He Mei that a new batch was on the way, were still sitting and waiting.

As soon as Liu Ben drove his car to the door, Liu Shuanghu hurried over to help Liu Ben transport the new milk to the store.

Before the items were even put on the shelves, customers came over impatiently, took what they wanted to buy and went to check out.

Liu Ben was a little surprised. When he went back, there was still a lot of milk left. How come it was sold out in such a short time?

After asking, Liu Ben learned from He Mei that some customers had bought some milk that morning and shared it with friends. Everyone who tried it loved it, but because they didn't drink much, they couldn't quite get enough. They kept thinking about it. Someone else also told their colleagues in the group about how good the milk was, so they and their curious colleagues sent someone to buy some after lunch.

Although milk is expensive at 35 yuan a bottle, there are many milk teas or coffees near the commercial area that are shockingly expensive. In comparison, many office workers who feel uncomfortable without drinking beverages in the afternoon think that at least this milk is definitely healthier than milk tea or coffee. Although it is green, there are so many green milk teas. Since some people say it tastes particularly good, and you have to order a drink anyway, you might as well try this fresh milk today.

Therefore, in the morning, the milk was sold slowly, bottle by bottle, but in the afternoon, it was sold by several or dozens of bottles. As a result, it was sold out very quickly.

Fortunately, Liu Ben came back in time. Although the later guests had to wait a little longer, the milk was produced within two hours, so it was really fresh. It seemed to be more nutritious and healthier than the batch in the morning, so the guests were more satisfied.

Liu Ben then remembered that many young people working in office buildings like to order milk tea or coffee in the afternoon. One reason is that it does not taste good in their mouths, and the other is that they tend to feel sleepy if they do not drink something while working in the afternoon. Therefore, over time, they have formed the habit of drinking tea and coffee to wake up.

"Of course it's better to drink our fresh milk. It tastes good, doesn't contain excess sugar, is healthy and can help you grow taller." Liu Ben said as a matter of course.

Liu Ben finds the milk tea from the shop across the street quite unpalatable. It lacks any milky flavor, and while it's sweet, it's a bit bitter. And while it's not sweet at all, you can clearly tell they've added a lot of sugar, which is weird. Yet, it's that kind of milk tea shop that's always packed with people, and business is booming.

Maybe milk tea isn't for me, Liu Ben thought.

"Can it really help you grow taller?" He Mei also heard what Ms. Sun said. After drinking the milk in their store for a few days, she grew 1 cm taller. Although she was a teenager in the growth and development period, it was still a bit strange.

"It should be."

Although they drank it every day, no one went out of their way to measure their height. The men in the Liu family were all tall, so it was not obvious whether they had grown taller or not. Moreover, they had all passed the growth period, so there should be no effect on their height growth. At most, it would make their bones stronger.

"The customers have spoken for themselves, so it must be true. Then we can sell this milk at a lower price." Liu Shuanghu said happily.

The hundred or so bottles of milk that just arrived have been almost sold out, and it’s only the first day.

Liu Ben was also very satisfied. Including the sales of milk, he just checked and found that today's income was almost reaching 50,000.

The cooking ladies who came here must have been brought by You Ying, and maybe a small part of them were brought by the three young masters who wanted to take credit for it.

At this time, You Ying was waiting at home for the chef he had booked to cook radishes, and You Guoguo came over again to eat for free.

You Guoguo was watching TV while looking down on her brother: "Are you taking other people's food for free again this time?"

"Yes." You Ying said calmly.

"Wow, look how much you've gone overboard, eating and drinking for free." You Guoguo pointed.

"Didn't I recommend a customer to him? I also introduced you to him." You Ying was playing with his phone.

You Guoguo: "Tsk, I'll go even without you!"

You Ying remained calm: "Without me, you wouldn't even know him."

You Guoguo wanted to continue finding fault with You Ying, but You Ying continued, "Besides, we are good friends. Good friends don't need to be so clear about the differences. We both know what's going on."

You Guoguo looked at You Ying as if she had seen a ghost: "Oh my god, you actually admitted that someone else is your friend? Wan Cheng has been with you for such a long time and you never said he was your friend!"

You Ying was ruthless: "Wan Cheng is just a tool to run the company."

You Guoguo: "You are such a cold-blooded capitalist!"

You Ying: "Then don't come and eat the capitalists' carrots."

You Guoguo: "We'll fleece the capitalists as much as we can."

You Ying: “…”

The three boys who also got the white jade radish first also played with it for an afternoon and then took the radishes home. The one in Guan Mingbo's hand weighed 11 kilograms. The whole box was very large, which attracted the attention of the family.

"Baby, what are you holding?" Guan Mingbo's mother stood up and looked at the things in his hands curiously.

"It's a big radish. I bought it with great difficulty. The store hasn't even started selling it yet. I'll try it today!" Guan Mingbo was hungry after playing all afternoon, so he rushed to the kitchen in a hurry. Aunt Li, who was cooking, was already preparing dinner in the kitchen. If he was any later, dinner might be ready, and his radish would not be needed.

"What radish? Why are you in such a hurry?" Guan's mother followed him in confusion.

"Mingbo is back? He's been acting recklessly and unruly every day." An old man with gray hair walked out of the room with a tired look on his face.

Guan's mother said awkwardly, "Dad, Xiaobo is a little naughty. I'll talk to him nicely. Dad, what do you want to eat for dinner? I'll go talk to Auntie."

"Just some water shield from that shop will do. I don't have an appetite anyway." The old man, Guan Mingbo's grandfather, slowly walked down from upstairs.

What he was talking about was the water shield produced by Aben Farm. Many older people like soft food, and the fresh and delicious water shield is very popular among old men.

"Let's make radishes for dinner!"

As soon as he went downstairs, Mr. Guan heard Guan Mingbo's noisy voice in the kitchen. He raised his eyebrows and walked into the kitchen.

"Cook radishes? Red radishes or white radishes?" Aunt Li was picking vegetables in the kitchen. She was a little confused when she heard Guan Mingbo suddenly rush in and say this.

"What should I do with the radishes I bought... well, I don't know either." Guan Mingbo said as he unpacked the radishes he was holding. He was very interested in Brother Ben's "products that have not yet been released for sale" and rushed to buy them. He really didn't know how to cook them.

Grandpa Guan stood at the door, tilting his head to casually look inside to see what his grandson was doing.

Mother Guan hurriedly said to Aunt Li, "Forget about the radish, let's make something healthy for the old man first!"

Aunt Li nodded and said, "I've been stewing the black-bone chicken in the pot for a long time. I just need to cook some water shield and it will be ready soon."

The old man had long been tired of chicken soup, and now he was a little surprised by his grandson's behavior: "What good thing is there that is worth you rushing back here in such a hurry?"

He asked this, but his eyes didn't show much disapproval, just a little curiosity.

"Of course it's good stuff! I bought it from Brother Ben's store!" Guan Mingbo was very proud, as if he had grown the vegetables.

Mother Guan shook her head: "Our aunt also buys vegetables from his family, it's worth it..."

"It's not those!" Guan Mingbo said mysteriously, "It's the dishes that haven't been sold yet in the restaurant!"

"How could you buy it before it's even on sale?" Guan's mother didn't quite believe it, but still looked over.

Old Master Guan also became interested. He had tasted the water shield and kelp from that shop before. They were indeed delicious, and he felt very comfortable after eating them. Although other people in the family did not have the same obvious feeling as him, Old Master Guan was sure that it was not his illusion. The vegetables sold by Aben's family were definitely healthy.

Guan Mingbo finally opened the box at this time. The main reason was that Liu Ben was afraid that the guests would bump into the radish on the road and damage the skin of the white jade radish, so he wrapped it very tightly. It took Guan Mingbo a lot of effort to reveal the big radish wrapped in layers of sponge.

"What is that?!" Before Guan's mother could finish her words, her eyes widened in surprise.

Old Master Guan also stood up straight, looking intently at the white jade lotus that was revealed after Guan Mingbo untied the sponge piece.

The radish in Guan Mingbo's hand looked like a meticulously crafted work of art, with no flaws on its body, and beautiful and symmetrical curves. It didn't look like food at all.

"Is this... a radish?" Grandpa Guan walked over slowly, looking at the beautiful and smooth radish skin, and felt that he actually wanted to eat it, which was a rare occurrence.

"Slice it and steam it. Have this for dinner." Grandpa Guan immediately said to the aunt.

"Steam it? Wouldn't it be too bland..." Guan Mingbo hesitated. But the dishes at Brother Ben's house should taste good steamed, right? But is steaming the best way to eat them?

"What? Do you have any objections?" Old Master Guan glanced at Guan Mingbo.

"No, no!" Guan Mingbo quickly shook his head.

"Hmph." Old Master Guan walked out.

Only Guan Mingbo and his mother were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

“Wouldn’t it be a bit too much to steam it all?”

A radish is this big, and Aunt Li felt that if she steamed too much in one meal, she would definitely not be able to finish it, so she only cut one-fifth of it, added a little chicken broth, and steamed it in a steamer. After taking it out of the pot, she sprinkled some green and red peppers and other small ingredients and served it on the table.

In fact, one-fifth of the radish is not small. After steaming, it was placed on a large plate. Although it was steamed in chicken soup, it was still as crystal clear and beautiful as white jade when it came out of the pot. Coupled with its unique fruity aroma, it instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Grandpa Guan suddenly felt like he had an appetite. He stretched out his chopsticks and gently picked up a piece of white radish, being careful not to break the radish that had been steamed until it was soft. He blew away the heat and took a bite. The white radish, which had absorbed so much broth, had not a single fiber in it and almost melted in his mouth. Warmth spread throughout his body.

Others also felt the charm of this radish. Although they used steaming method to follow Grandpa Guan's cooking method and steamed it very soft, no one thought that this white jade radish was not delicious.

After eating the radish, the other dishes seemed to have a filter, and everything I ate afterwards seemed to be delicious. This is also why Mr. Guan ate a lot today, and when he finally stopped, he suddenly realized that he was too full. He wondered if he would feel nauseous and unable to sleep at night.

The others didn't have this concern. With their big appetites, they finished all the food and ate to their heart's content.

That night, Grandpa Guan went to sleep feeling half relieved and half worried. Unexpectedly, he slept through the morning and, far from feeling uncomfortable, he felt stronger, more energetic, and looked much better. The Guan family was overjoyed. Guan Mingbo had achieved something remarkable, and even Grandpa Guan was much kinder to him this time.

The customers of Aben Agricultural Products enjoy their meals, and Liu Ben, the owner of the store, also lives a comfortable life.

Although the second-generation Wushuang rice grown by Liu Ben did not taste as good as the first-generation one, the other people in the Liu family had never tasted the first-generation Wushuang rice, so when they really tasted the second-generation Wushuang rice, it was like opening the door to a new world.

They had never tasted rice like this before.

So just a few days after Liu Ben's rice was distributed, some people were already impatient to come and sign the contract. Although Liu Ben and his grandfather repeatedly assured that there would be enough rice and everyone would be able to plant it, many people still had a "first come, first served" mentality and rushed to sign up.

"Chief, you have been the chief for decades, we have complete faith in you!" Many elderly villagers do not know how to do anything else except farming, and can only make a living by doing rough work. Although their savings are enough, their income is not high, so they are all looking forward to next year's sowing, and they have no doubt that the chief has brought them new hope this time.

Liu Yibiao was very pleased and agreed to let them sign a contract with Liu Ben now.

Many villagers also sent some of the rice that Liu Ben sent to their children who were working outside, hoping that they could return to their hometown. Even if they did not farm full-time, they could at least come back to help during the busy farming season.

Young people, however, have their own calculations and are much more cautious. If their current job is good, they won't consider returning. But those who aren't doing well out there will keep it in mind. After all, it's still early for next year's planting season, so they still have time to consider it.

Liu Quanyou's eldest son, Liu Anjia, was one of those who had expressed interest in returning. He had already told his father how many acres he wanted to cultivate and had asked him to register for him. Meanwhile, Liu Liye, the second son, didn't take the rice his father had sent him seriously, simply throwing it aside without even looking at it.

"What is it?" his wife asked him.

"Don't worry about the rice my father sent. The villagers treat anything new as a good thing."
